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.

Grilling on my deck I observed what appeared to be an aircraft in the eastern sky in a regular pattern I have seen for decades where I live. It displayed a flashing white light. I noticed a red light appear and then the craft stopped suddenly, It then changed direction to the north and sped up to a much higher speed. It then stopped and changed course suddenly again and continued north. I walked through my house and walked out the north entrance door. The aircraft was moving north where it stopped at some point and dropped at a high speed until other homes were blocking its view. I have never seen anything like this in my life.

Updated: Grilling on my deck I observed what appeared to be an aircraft in the eastern sky in a regular pattern I have seen for decades where I live. It displayed a flashing white light then changed to a non blinking red light. The object (5-10 miles out?) appeared to be hovering as planes around the O'Hare airport area were constantly moving. It seemed to drop very fast then turned to the north and sped at unimaginable speed. Almost like a laser pointer but the sky was clear and no sound. It then stopped again and changed course slightly continuing north. I walked out the north entrance door of my home and observed the same red light moving north at a high speed where it stopped directly north and dropped at a high rate of speed below my field of view. This could not have been a regular or military aircraft, helicopter or even a drone. Nothing I know of could maneuver that fast. I have never seen anything in the sky like this in my life.
