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 letting the dog out in front of house and looked at the stars. I noticed a bright white light originated from the northwest moving quickly to the northeast. It moved at a constant urgent speed it began brighter than a bright star, and as it traveled, it went bright to dim and smaller until not visible. Like a passing ball would seem bigger as it got closer and then smaller as it got further away. It made no sounds and no trails.
