A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
So it's weird I'm walking my dogs out for a bit, something was really on my consciousness to take my phone out and get a video of the sky, there was a rocket or missle of some type being shot in the sky & outta no where this object appears very small, no noise in the sky like a regular aircraft no lights on the craft so I then knew it wasn't a regular aircraft

What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

I was in the car and over the cliff where lights of the city below can be seen. I regularly drive this way at night and I noticed something I haven’t seen before. Near the horizon line there was a line of yellow lights. I looked closer and they appeared to be spinning and a red light flashed on the top of what appeared to be the disk shape. If this is not a UFO my only guess is that it could be a stadium but the lights were too uniform for that and it would not makes sense that they span. I took a video of the lights but it is hard to make out the shape. My dad did not see the object but witnessed my reaction and is also familiar with the skyline.

as my girlfriend and I were walking up the stairs to her car in the parking lot we saw a diamond shaped object hovering a few hundred feet with a light at each of the four points and an additional light in the center of the object being the total visible amount of lights to 5, this object quickly ascended to at least a thousand feet in the air and slowly took off out of view in about 5-10 seconds. This object had no visible means of propulsion and made no noise which I found very interesting after initially thinking of it as a drone, I have no idea what this was but I am ver certain it was no plane flying into Birmingham airport and it certainly was no helicopter or drone considering how large it was. The video below was taken on my girlfriends iPhone in what little time she had to react

Driving down highway 150 saw a bright triangle with lights in the points and one extra in the middle of the back. Sat still over the gravyard sat still for about 15 seconds to a sharp left flew over the car dealership and was gone. Flew straight up and was gone. I tried to get a video but was not able while driving. Wondering if anyone else saw it since it was 5 o’clock traffic.

So, we were driving on interstate 65, getting off by the Galleria, on the fly over and me, (the passenger) notice 4 white streaks of light that seemed to be floating and i called my friend who was in the car in front of us and asked if she saw them, and at that time, there were now only 3 lights and we all saw the same streaks of white light that seemed to be moving but in no particular fashion and then one disappeared and the 3 remaining began to scatter and they were moving toward the bessemer/tuscaloosa area.
