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.

I was intensely looking all over the sky attempting to see a meteor shower when I spotted what I first thought was an airplane, but I am 99% sure it was not. It was saucer shaped with 3-4 visible horizontal lights, one red, the others white, that flashed one after the other in a row. The saucer stayed almost perfectly in place except for zigzagging every 10 seconds or so. I watched it for 20 minutes before I got too cold and went back inside.

Looking out the north window at the sky as I often do before going to sleep, the Big Dipper was to my left, stars dotted the dark sky. Directly above, I thought I saw a jet heading south to north. It was white, or star-like, but a pinpoint, very high up, moving steadily much as a plane but without strobe lights which are usually visible. It disappeared & reappeared a few times, yet the sky seemed cloudless. (Weather tonight clear & calm.) Suddenly there was a flash or burst of light as the object continued north, disappearing & reappearing before going out of sight. Writer is UNE graduate medical assistant.
