Sphere over Moody, AL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were outside looking at the stars there was still a little bit of dusk left to the southwest of us with a few clouds but clear sky right above us with lots of stars. Then all of a sudden these orbs appear out of nowhere going faster then anything I have ever seen in my life in a formation to the north east for about 2 minutes max then it disappeared. Once they were gone all of sudden these weird clouds appeared over us with a trail following the exact spot the orbs were.Then after I took pictures of the sky u can see the trail they left and the clouds that appeared out of nowhere. All of the dogs in the neighborhood started barking. In one picture u can see this object that looks like cylinder shape.

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.
