Light over Krebs, OK
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I noticed a bright light more intense than any star ive seen before rise over the tree tops. At first i thought it was the comet we was expecting until i realized it was barely moving. Every 5 to 10 minutes it would dim completly about 20 seconds then come back as intense as before. After full sunrise it was undetectable in the sky. Then tonight 09/09/23 at 11 pm i seen it rising above the trees in the exact same spot. Its not a star [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Possible]

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.
