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.

it came down after the fireworks were over and hovered for awhile then took off. i was able to go inside and get other witnesses to come out and see it before it disappeared. i have no idea if anyone else around saw it but it was so big it would have been hard to miss if they were looking up.
