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.

Fireball looked like shooting star, except it "pulsed" on and off at a regular interval: ~3 seconds off, 1 second on. Traveled east at high altitude, stayed in area for 4 "pulses". Traveled in same direction for 3 pulses, then on 4th pulse we noticed it had turned 90 degrees and traveled south. Lost sight of object after that. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
