Light over Monrovia, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
This happens everytime I go to work at around 10 40 am. On the 210 freeway going west. It started when me and my cousin enter irwindale and ends as we get close to Monrovia. We notice it flashing colors starting red, orange, green and then blue. It is so bright is shines through the day. The flashing color light use to last about 30 seconds but gets shorter everytime. I pull out my phone to film but because my phone is so old, the camera takes a minute to load so I end up missing the light. The light seems to be happening in the San Gabriel Mountains close to those spires at the top of the mountain where the old observatory is, I would assume but looking, I could be wrong. We have only seen this flashing colored light 3 times this year.

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.

I have picture. Seem to be a Chen trail but going straight up and the trail was dissipating at a fast rate. Was just so unusual to see a craft go straight up rather than across the sky.

They looked like stars that were in a straight line and the moved from the west to this east. They followed each other in a line.
