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.

ON approx 1547,12/06/2020, While taking my taking out for the evening run, I happened to look at the sky and see what appeared to be a triangle shaped object ahead and above me. It was approx 300 feet in the air. From one side and actually 3 sides,I could see various colors . Those flashing colors were on the 3 sides of the vehicle alternately from each side. I could hear no sound and it was moving at what appeared to be a slow pace. I quickly went into my home to get my cell phone to get a video of this event. I tried to video tape it I did check my phone and it does appear I did catch the object on the camera from a distance. The object eventually came to a complete stop and hovered ,I watched this happen for approx 15 minutes and it was still there when I called in the report the UFO Reporting Site.

Witness was traveling on 81st towards Harrisburg,PA, Was on what the locals call Lavelle Mountain. Just all of a sudden this object appeared over the interstate and appeared to hover stationary for like 20 seconds and quickly went into the trees on my right at a high rate of speed. Object appeared quite large. At first I thought it was some type of drone but it moved too fast to be one, kinda looked like a lunar lander in my opinion. I was shocked by what I saw and got emotional. When I had passed the spot where I thought the object would be but found nothing.

At approximately 11:50 P.M. on 1/18/2016 while my wife was coming home from her job, she observed a bright white light moving slowly above housing structures near and around a Turkey Hill Mini Market, Rt. 72 South, Manheim, PA. She said that the light was bright, and that she then witnessed the light take a sharp downward ark. She said that the light did not break apart, but just simply arked down in an Easterly direction before she lost sight of the object due to multiple building obstruction.

Light traveling very quickly - seemed too fast to be a satellite.
