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 PM yesterday evening I saw a somewhat low-flying aircraft that was a rectangle shape and had green lights on the underside in the shape of a half oval at each end of the rectangle speed across the sky above me. It was loud and I could hear it coming towards me. It sounded almost like a tornado and I heard it in both the sky and the trees. I went inside and around 9:20 I heard a loud aircraft and felt my house shake, so there may be another one flying around, or the same one.

I was able to take a video for 11 minutes. It seemed to stop after reaching a high altitude.

I was in the back yard doing some astrophotography work and I looked up to see a form flying in a straight path over my house from the east to the west. I couldn’t tell what my eyes were seeing exactly and there are two ways to describe it. It looked as though it was a translucent boomerang shape with the curved part as the leading edge. But it also could have been the leading edge of a circular shaped craft with some kind of cloaking device on as the leading edge shape had a rippling/rippled effect along with the translucent appearance. It made no sound and with that and no reference point I could not tell if it was a large object 400-500 feet in the air or a small object 50-60 feet off the ground. The cops of trees that it flew over average 50-80 feet high so it was at least above that. The air was still. Barely a slight breeze, super clear night, 51 degrees F and cooling off. 95% of all flight paths in my area are N/S coining in and out of Reagan, Dulles and BWI. I’ve seen UFO’s before and this one was very unusual as it was very movie like in it’s quality.

I was moving SOutheast on Princess Anne Street in Fredericksburg near the train station, and high in the sky I saw a very bright light that was moving from right to left, but the light was pointing to the right. The light was very very bright, pointing to the right, but it also had a large cone of light associated with it- Like a giant comet or something in the sky- It really reminded me of pictures of a comet, where there is a huge tail of debris, but there was a bright light pointing backwards as it flew- It was not like any airplane I had ever seen.

My wife, kids, son-in-law, and myself watched a bright white light move quickly in a C shape across the sky above our horse field. It then turned to the north and proceeded in a straight line. We lost sight of it in the tree tops only to see it, or a second light come back in the opposite direction across the sky and then vanishing. It had no sound nor any FAA blinking lights.
