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.

What I assume to be a blackhawk helicopter with no spot light on was following 4 dim red lights and no other blinking or strobing lights from a west to east path at a low height at what I would estimate at 500 feet

Saw a craft in the sky that had a light on the belly of the craft that is much brighter than any light I have seen on a flying craft, it moved in a small forward motion, dipped behind a cloud for less than 5 seconds than disappeared from the sky even though it should have been visible after the cloud passed. Object was shining a beam of light down the back of the object, moving in a way most reminded me of a hummingbird with it moving in small circular motions, no sounds like a helicopter or any other craft. Before it dipped behind the cloud the light flared up to be much brighter.

I was taking out our puppy to go potty and I looked up in the sky and saw what looked like a star dropping straight down from the sky. It didn't go sideways like most shooting stars. Then immediately after seeing that, I saw what looked like a tiny star moving like a snake through the sky. The color gradually changed from blue to white, blue to white, continuously until it just disappeared after about 20 seconds. It looked further than any airplane could go, because the light looked smaller than the stars.

At approximately 10 p.m on July 27th, my partner and I saw a bright orange light move at a rapid speed across the sky heading north. We watched the light disappear into the sky. We went back inside for approximately 1 minute before we saw yet another light of the same color and speed perform the exact same movement. There was no sound at all. These were not aircraft, we see numerous aircraft as we are close to the airport. There were no flashing lights, no change of color or shape.
