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.

My husband saw a line of lights in the sky and ran in to get me. I ran out and also saw it. There were maybe 10-16 yellow/white lights with a gap in the middle in a diagonal line to the northeast of us. They looked close, and it looked BIG. It slowly moved across the sky and back away from us and then slowly up and back until it faded into the atmosphere. There was also an airplane to the north and it was way smaller than the thing we saw. We got a photo and short video of it on my husband’s phone, but the quality is not great as it was nighttime and his phone is just an XR. Still got some proof though! You have to turn the light all the way up on your phone or computer to see it in the video. My husband is a lineman for a powerline company and I am a stay at home mother. He was out just starting his motorcycle when he saw this and ran in to get me to look. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Certain]
