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.

Before going to bed I was looking out a window that looks over our hay field. All the lights were out in the house. I was looking at the stars and just kind of taking in the night before getting in bed. I saw a bright light shoot over my field from south to north above the eastern horizon. It moved extremely fast and was only visible for about one second. The light was very bright and did not have a tail or appear to be a shooting star which I see often and am familiar with. The light appeared to be already in motion when it became visible and went out as fast as it showed up. There wasn’t any “dimming” affect, acceleration or deceleration that I detected …it just shut off. Wife and kids were all in bed asleep. I stood there for a while looking out the window trying to understand what I had just seen. I guess there is a possibility it was a low, fast and bright shooting star but I have never seen anything like it. It appeared to be close in proximity to me, I would guess within 2-3 miles, given how big it appeared, that is only my perception…it could have been a long ways off. I live on a farm and spend a lot of time outside. I’m very familiar with the night sky and what is “normal”…this has me stumped. Thought I’d report just in case anyone else might have had a central Texas sighting that night. I’m curious.

Saw a row of lights in a slanted line. Thought it was Maybe a glare on the window. Rolled my window down and it was still there. It moved slowly away and disappeared. Wasn't in a rush. Just kind of drifted away.

Singular red light. Extreme high altitude, "low orbit?" Northbound heading toward Ursa Major. Thought it was a satellite at first when it disappeared about five seconds after spotting it. No port or starboard lights that an aircraft would have. Besides it disappearing and never reappearing, its clearly red color made the object abnormal. I know aircraft and high/low orbit spacecraft. This was not one.

1 cylinder object- highly polished silver. Joined after brief time by another- from thin air! Then both moved away and vanished!
