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.

Let me start by saying - these were NOT Starlink - (verified by current Starlink location tracker) - not drones, aircraft or any other type of helicopter formation whatsoever! I’m former Coast Guard trained as an electronic tech w a Raytheon 64 X Band radar certification. At 11:38pm this evening I observed and captured on my cell phone a large formation of silver orbs moving from North to South in the vicinity of N Seneca St in Daytona beach - All of which were completely silent and at an altitude BELOW the cloud ceiling which tonight was quite low - ALL moving together very rapidly and appeared in a V formation initially. I want to add that this is the 11th straight day in a row we have been seeing these objects in the night sky w the naked eye. Further review of the video also indicates a few of these objects breaking formation from the group and accelerating away at an enormous amount of speed - instantly. I felt it was important to report this - because the frequency of these sightings in this area are increasing dramatically and searching for an explanation is critical.

During Hurricane Ians visit on 9/30/22 I was filming clouds out of my bedroom window and saw a red streak/ light in sky. I thought it might be a shuttle but there were no shuttles scheduled during the hurricane. I saw this red orange glow in the sky traveling downwards. I have the video. Not sure what it was and it disappeared behind dark clouds.

I was riding my bike on nova turning into 4th Street which come in contact with Dal Maso where I live. As I was coming from nova into 4th headed west I saw a Triangular 3 pulsating lights that we stationary with what seem to be something in between but I couldn't see it. It was perfect length to make it a perfect triangle. Then one light turned of making it only two pulsating lights. But, then something weird and unexplainable happened. One of the lights on the right, another beam of light came out and started dancing or doing weird movements next to second light of triangle on the right. It looked like it was a little comet flying perfect into it but then doing weird manuvers. The 3 lights then came all back on. As I was trying to chase it DISAPPEARED. It was not fireworks. No fucking way. I felt for a few hours after it happened dazed and lost. Ir was not a negative experience.

My wife took these three photos one after the other while holding the photo button down. They were taken within seconds of each other. The first photo is basically blank with no visible anomaly. The second photo clearly shows a large object appear over the ocean and another object up and to the right of the main object that has an aura or haze around it. When zooming I on the main object it clearly appear to be. craft of some sort. It is definitely not a plane or any other man made object. The last photo, the main object is gone but there are 2 smaller lights that are still visible.
