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 9pm I went outside to smoke a cigarette and saw 2 UFOs. One was in the shape of a chevron that changed colors and one was a line of lights that was yellow. They were flying low, and I felt slightly sick and I don’t remember going inside my house but I woke up in my living on the couch to a horrible nightmare of being surrounded by something several hours later. I’ve never had an experience like it before or sense but I still have vivid nightmares of the same event. I don’t know what was real and my memory is spotty. And when I think about it still get physically ill.

A friend and I were walking around in Weymouth woods. As we came out into a clearing, suddenly I witnessed a brilliantly lit green fireball in the sky to the west. The fireball appeared to be very large in size and seemed to be falling from space. For a moment after it disappeared I expected to hear an explosion, however, there was none. Possible meteor? PD
