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.

When I returned home and downloaded the photos to the computer, I saw a green circle shaped orb that changed locations in several shots, including being beside my car. UFO Two: During the same drive, I took several photos from the moon roof. In the last shot, over Leadville, I saw a black shape in the photo and when I blew it up it appeared to be a disk shaped UFO.

A bright orange/amber orb appeared from the southwest, traveling towards the northeast. Was traveling faster than an airplane (we saw several planes passing overhead), but not as fast as a meteor. A distinct vapor trail was visible behind the craft, as reflected by the moonlight. I would estimate the altitude to be between 15,000 to 18,000 ft above sea level. As an airline pilot, it was something unique that I was unable to explain. The orb disappeared behind Mt. Massive. Suspected to have been a re-entry of a portion of the Russian Cosmos 2495. Our gratitude to Mr. Ted Molczan for his proper identification of the object. PD
