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.

There was a fireworks show hosted by the Silver Slipper Casino just past Waveland, MS, in a section called Lakeshore. At first, I thought it was a helicopter. I told my son to watch the red lights because it was heading towards us (east - Bay St. Louis). However, it stopped. Around that time I noticed there were two more red orbs behind it in a straight line, but with a lot of distance between them. They started heading East again in a straight line when they just simply vanished. No sound. They were too far up in the sky to get any video from my iPhone. I wouldn't have given it any thought until I mentioned it to my mom. Before I could finish, "Hey.., did you see" my mom said, "The three red lights in the sky?" -... just weird. But, you know, probably swamp gas or maybe flares... There had to be a few hundred people in the general area where I was tonight, possibly more that could witness it from Slidell, LA, or Pass Christian, MS. And, with any luck, someone with an HD camera.

I had just left my friend's house and was in an elated mood. It was around 0230 in the morning. I know this, because I pulled over and drew two pictures on my phone that are time-stamped immediately following my experience. I was heading northbound about to make a right turn that would have me parallel to railroad tracks approximately two blocks from the beach on the Gulf Coast. About 20-30 yards before making my right turn, I suddenly noticed a very bright light above my car. I remember thinking to myself, "Where is this light coming from?" It appeared very suddenly and was extremely bright, almost blinding. This blinding light caught my immediate attention, because I drove past this area almost every other night to see my best friend and this light was never there before. Just as soon as I noticed the light, it was gone. I take a right at a stop sign (now going northeast) and am now parallel with the aforementioned railroad tracks. I went approximately 1.6 miles when I suddenly noticed what appeared to be a metallic saucer-like flying object in the sky appear before my eyes. It was about 50 yards northwest of me, on the other side of the tracks, hovering above a big brown house. I know exactly which house it was to this day which is why I can tell you exactly how far I drove. There was light emitting from the bottom of the UFO going down in a V shape, like a tornado, over the house with the same hue of "true" white light that was above my car not long before. I will now describe the UFO to you. It was disk-shaped but fairly thick/tall/great in height. Part of me wants to tell you to think of an oval as opposed to being flatter, like a disk. There were lights going horizontally across the sides that repeated this pattern: )•( )•( )•( )•( with the lights being only the center dots (white light) and the parentheses just being metallic accents in the structure itself. What I remember extremely vividly is that while this object was stationary in mid-air above this two-story house, I could tell it was vibrating in place very strongly. I watched this object hover over the house for what seemed like a minute, in reality probably only 10-20 seconds, while driving very slowly. I was fixated on it. I could not see anything inside the white light emitting from the bottom. Then the UFO was just gone. It didn't fly away quickly. It didn't dart back into the sky above. It didn't slowly disappear from sight as it got farther away or anything. It was just gone before my eyes. I couldn't believe what I had just seen, so I pulled over immediately to document it while it was fresh in my mind. I opened up Snapchat because was the first thing I thought of to draw with since I had no pen and paper with me; I drew two pictures. One drawing is of my view, showing my car in relation to the UFO and the tracks, and the other drawing is of the UFO itself with all the detail I could place at the time. I will be emailing you those two drawings plus a Google Maps image of where I was facing. I'm telling this now because I've been too afraid to previously. I've heard about the strange deaths/ disappearances of people who talk about these kinds of first-hand experiences so I was very deterred from telling anyone what I witnessed, even close friends. I ask that if you choose to contact me, which I'm very open to, please either inform me beforehand or leave a voicemail for me to call you back, because I have a tendency to not pick up for numbers I don't know. Thank you for your time.
