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.

UFO came from the West traveling extremely fast. It was erratic and changed direction from ascending to descending in a matter of seconds. Looks like it disappeared then came back before disappearing to the NE.

The UFO was spotted in the N on 5 July 2023. The UFO acted oddly. At one point it descended, then curved upward, before descending again. It also appeared to hover.

I was standing outside my house at 4 E. Richard Dr. in Palm Bluff, Arkansas watching the night sky. At roughly 9:30 p.m. I noticed a glowing orb, flying low and very slowly or duration of about 12 seconds, until it completely disappeared out of the sky. It was as if just when I was getting good and focused on it the orb dematerialized from the sky.

My husband and I were on our way back from picking up a pizza and after I'd climbed out of our truck something just told me to look up. When I did, I noticed a light that was as bright as one of the brightest starts moving quickly and steadily across the sky. I called my husband over quickly because he was lagging behind me. He rushed over and was just as dumbfounded as I. At that moment I rushed into my home, leaving my husband to keep observing, placed my pizza on the sofa, and called my neighbor outside. He was awaiting our return with the pizza. He rushed out and all 3 of us watched this object. At this time we noticed that this light, although as bright as a star, was much lower because you could actually see it moving below the real stars. Whatever this light was, it never made a sound, it never changed colors, and the speed and flight path never changed. At some point my neighbor pulled out his cellphone and began recording the object until it eventually flew out of sight. If the object would have stopped, it would have been indistinguishable from a star. Its movement is what provided the perspective that it was lower than actual stars.

There was a glowing V-shaped formation flying very high and very fast.
