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.

Around 9:40 PM 4 of us saw a white V shaped object going extremely fast from the handle of the Big Dipper constellation and headed south west towards Peavine Peak. The object had 5 faint white orbs in a large V shaped formation that morphed into a diamond shape formation with the 5th orb in the middle of the diamond. It was traveling extremely fast and disappeared within around 6-7 seconds. Between the orbs looked like it was open sky, not a solid object but separate orbs flying in formation. It was in a suburban area but it disappeared in the sky and not beyond the horizon. We’ve seen things similar to this nearly 15 times in the last year, each time with multiple witnesses. The provided images are drawings of what it appeared to be, changing from the V formation to the diamond formation.

When out for a smoke, looked up and a flash of light caught my eye right above me then right where flash happened what I thought was a star immediately started moving south bound. It was very slow moving then fast then it would stop then it would move a little east or west an repeated this pattern until I lost sight of it. Plus maybe 4 days ago I watched 2 stars next to each other start moving at the same time and speed for a distance. If you held out your hand they moved about 10" then stopped, my brother looked them up in his star app and they where confirmed to be stars! I can ask him to look up the names again but I cant remember them. I know I watched them change positions in the sky i was not seeing an illusion, which has happened before where I thought I star moved for a split second but it's just my body not able to stand perfectly still. I have also seen a green light over Gardnerville that my Dad witnessed, it was like it knew we seen it and it hid behind Jobs peak then it popped out as if to check if we where still looking then shot back behind the peak. The green light was probably 10 years ago though I'm not sure if any of this helps but I had to say something seeing how I watched 2 separate odd occurrences in less than a week.

Currently a fast moving black sphere above Reno. As I type this, a jet just started chasing it. I’ve never seen anything like this. It moved very quickly, and then started hovering for about 15 minutes while my friend and I watched it. I took Iphone video and photo but it’s pretty bad. This thing was definitely there, and it took off well before the jet could get close enough to engage.

I went to my hotel room, looked outside and saw a cigar shaped object emitting bright orange light. I initially thought it was a plane with chemtrails but the object was shooting up, not going further into the distance, and then maneuvered to the left in a way a plane could not do. I took two videos. It disappeared behind the building but my sighting lasted 2 full minutes. Another thing that happened is my TV didnt get a signal, and my computer charger stopped working. I was floored. I cant attach the video but I have this which I took: https://www.tiktok.com/@ohmygoodnezz_/video/7174577458069507371?_t=8XzeBr2O3J8&_r=1

I was taking a picture of someone repairing windows 24 stories up at the Eldorado Hotel and captured the very reflective triangle darting about the photo I was taking in live mode.
