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.

At approximately 1740 hrs. I witnessed a bright light heading North to South. At first, I thought it was a plane, but I then notices there weren’t any green or red flashes and no noise. The object also would blink in and out. The object then appeared to slow down and make an immediate westerly turn and speed up. Then the object would slow down to almost a crawl then would seem to jump to new location. It did this about three times while also making quick side to side movements. Then the object kept moving west and blinked out and was gone.

At approximately 11:55 p.m. tonight, June 22nd, 2015, recited (sic. Sighted?) an object approaching from the south heading north near our house and at first it appeared to look like a cloud it was sort of oval shape and then a light appeared in the center of it as it continued moving north and then it began to fade back to a smaller round ball shape and eventually just moved backwards away from us and disappeared. ((NOTE FROM MR. TED MOLCZAN)) Hello Peter, Your hunch probably is correct. The Sentinel 2A satellite was launched on a Vega rocket from the Guiana Space Center, last night at 9:52 PM EDT (Jun 23 01:52 UTC). Coverage of the launch was here: http://spaceflightnow.com/2015/06/22/vv05-mission-status-center/ SeeSat-L received several reports of sightings near 23:49 EDT (3:49 UTC), of what appears to have been exhaust from the final burn of the Vega rocket's AVUM liquid fueled upper stage. That burn lowered the perigee to ensure that the object decays from orbit within a reasonable time, in order to curb the growth of space debris. http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0193.html http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0194.html http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0195.html http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0198.html http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0199.html Marco Langbroek blogged his analysis: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.nl/2015/06/aurora-hunter-images-last-moments-of.html Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
