Formation over Greentown, IN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was driving east bound on US HWY 35 from Greentown to Kokomo on Saturday July 9th at approximately 9:30pm. I was about 1.5 miles west of US HWY 31 in Kokomo and the sky was just getting dusk, and I saw these 3 fire orange round orbital lights floating about 50 feet in the air above a house next to a corn field. The orbs were about the size of basketballs and not moving. The orbs were in a perfect diagonal line about 20 feet apart from each other. I thought maybe they were drones or helicopters so I rolled my windows down but heard nothing. I slowed down as I passed and looked back and all of a sudden I saw only one orange orb and it suddenly shot across the sky and disappeared and in less than a second it was completely gone! This is the first time I have ever seen anything like this so I researched it and found that Howard County Indiana has had quite a past with these experiences. Because I was driving alone I was not able to get any pictures. Thank you.

Ask for the records
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.
