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.

As soon as the light from the moon brighten the clouds around the object, the object disappeared. Sorry I did not see this with the naked eye but I really felt this was so weird that I wanted to report it. It almost seem like one of our space rockets but moving in a quiet motion and facing sideways. If you can zoom in this video you can probably see like the thrust of the rocket at one end.

JBU555 was flying southwest bound on the arrival into DCA airport and reported a small object flying opposite direction 4-5000 feet above it. They said they've seen multiple drones in their careers but nothing like what they just saw. No other aircraft were operating in this area at the time of the report.

Triangle of lights flew incredibly fast and silently. Was underneath clouds, lit the sky. Was gone in a flash. Seen by me and friend, it went towards a nuclear power plant

Been seeing things since middle of Sept. First time was a bluish color oval floating around in the sky-changed positions a few times. Second was triangular in shape and red/white lights moving erratically up and down, side to side. Last night was a bright white ball-I thought it was a comet or shooting star at first since it had a long white "tail-" but then it moved at such a fast pace in a straight line and not downward, then disappeared. I have never seen anything like this ever. The speed of movement made me realize this was something else. This happened last year at this time also. In the fall. By winter, the lights and balls disappear till next fall.

I thought I might be seeing chinese lanterns at first, turned out to be something different. I watched two orange orb's hovering in the sky separated by possibly 100 - 200 yards from my stand point. Also there was a bright white light to their 2 o'clock position shining brightly what would seem to be 7 to 15 miles east of them. The orbs then proceeded east bound after hovering and maintained a perfect separation from one another. No flashing lights as per a plane or helicopter, nor was there any type of noise production.
