Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
Sightings from the Project Blue Book era (through 1969) live in Record Group 341 at the National Archives. 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.

Looking what I thought was a satellite but it was moving to slow it was like a weak star then it brightened 100 times intensity for 3sec went back to original intensity and made a 90 % left turn and disappeared. Possible flare from an Iridium satellite? PD
