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.

Witness saw an object coming out of the west heading east and below the clouds that definitely was not an aircraft or meteor. He estimated the object was about 4-6 miles out at first.

As I was driving through Royal Palm Beach, I spotted 2 bright objects in the sky, just below the visor in my car. I ducked down, looked up and saw both clearly. They were shaped like a lifesavor candy, round and glowing orange. (with a hole or darkness in the middle) Both were stationary in the sky, the right one higher up. Within 20 seconds of spotting the objects, I pulled over to safely observe them. I exited my vehicle and excitedly called my sister, to see if she could see them from her nearby home. (She didn't answer, I left a message of what I was seeing on her voicemail) I then reached in my car for my kindle fire, to try and record this event. (my phone camera sucks) As I did, the object on the right turned. (like holding a lifesaver candy in your fingers and turning it sideways) It lost it's glow at this point. The sides and back were dark with no glow. It proceeded to shoot off higher into the sky and slightly westward, disappearing within 3-4 seconds. There was also the slightest blue hue flash, like a quick burst of acceleration from the backside, pinpoint small. As my kindle fire turned on, the second object then turned sideways/away from me (once again losing its bright orange glow) and followed a similar path as the first object, rising slightly and to the west, again disappearing within 3 to 4 seconds. The side/backside of the craft gave off no glow, just a slight shimmer of outline from the brightness on the other side. I was unable to catch either object on video, between pulling over, attempting to call my sister and waiting for my kindle to power up. The duration of this event was slightly less than a minute.

There was this low flying comet looking thing traveling West to East over St.Rd. 7 that disappeared into a portal of some sort. The tail of it was cut off and light fell to the ground like fireworks disappearing. There were helicopters present that flew off when the thing disappeared.

Walked dog and noticed two orange balls moving from east to west at helicopter height. Fireworks were done in my part of town and everything was quiet. These strange orange lights made no noise as they flew by me. I never saw anything like this and I got scared and called 911. I live by the wpb airport flight path and know the difference btween plane lights and stars. I see on you tube many people have witnessed what I did! I want to find out what that was that night! I jjust found out about the web site and this is why I did not report this earlier. If those orange balls are aliens, I sure hope they are friendly!

Red/orange not perfect sphere with flame inside of it. First there were 3 that crossed the sky rapidly from one end of the sky to the other. Northeast path I believe for about 4 minutes. Followed by a single 4th sighting possibly northwest path, this one disappeared after about 30 seconds. There was no sound coming from the object. 2 additional witnesses. We have corrected the date.
