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 was driving home and noticed a silver object in the sky. At first I thought it was a blimp but I have been on blimps and this shape was round. I turned up the hill and kept thinking about how it was not a blimp. I turned around to get a picture but had to go down the hill and pull into a parking lot. I saw an employee come out and said " look up there and tell me what you see". It had disappeared. The next day I told a coworker and he said the blimp went by but that was at 10am not 4pm. I asked if it had Snoopy on it and he said "Yes". No Snoopy here I saw all silver.
