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 11:00 am, I looked up at the sky to view the contrail patterns made by several jets flying overhead. I took a picture and then noticed a light blue sphere that was moving in a zig zag pattern through the contrails from left to right. At times, it was emitting a purple crescent-shaped haze. I took several pictures of it and after approximately 15 minutes, it disappeared behind one of the contrails and was no longer seen.
