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.

Saw 10-12 yellow /orange globes traveling from north to south, horizontally in eastern sky. No sound. Seemed to be going slow, but disappeared quickly when in the southern atmosphere. Very different than anything I've ever seen in my years. High altitude. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
