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.

It was early morning and very dark. The light in the sky was first observed as it moved from the western sky and was moving east. It looked like it could be a plane as it was about the right height. It looked like it could be a star as it was a single light. It glowed the same color as a star would. There were no additional lights associated with the object. The object moved faster than the planes we typically see pass overhead and it moved in a zig zag pattern as well as moving in a straight path from west to east. The zig zag movement did not appear to be overly broad as it deviated from a straight line of flight, but the motion was noticeable enough to attract our attention. The zig zags did not appear to be a part of a standard pattern. The object flew in a straight line for a matter of seconds, would zig right, zig left, return to original flight path heading east...a second or so later the object would again move in a random pattern left and right and then return to the original flight path. It continued flying east until it flew out of sight.

Our 14 yo boy spotted the 3 starlike dull stars moving slowly between the Big Dipper and the “W” in the sky. He pointed them out to the three adults and we watched them for several minutes as they formed a triangle. After that, I (g’mother), saw another coming in from the area of the Big Dipper. Then the 14 yo yelled, “another!” There was a ‘lighter’ area of the darkness of the sky, not actually a shape, just a somewhat lighter spot where it looked like the objects were coming from. There were 3 adults, 4 teens and 2 children who watched 11 objects come from the ‘dull’ spot. 15 objects in all as they formed a straight line and headed past the ‘W.’ I have looked at all the photos of ‘Starlink,’ and these were none of them.

Swooped behind trees. Later that night a small blinking round red light we both watched above where we saw that go down. It blinked and slowly faded and was gone right above where we saw what happen earlier. It was pill shaped red blue and yellow and had three round red lights underneath it . No windows but must have had one to see us

It zoomed right over us was totally silent multi-colored small pill shape. It zoomed over our head no sound right down the street veered up did. Wierdo twisty thing then went down below some tree lines. Later that night, right above where it went down we both again saw a blinking light that just blinked never moved and slowly faded until it disappeared. It had like yellow wings and was blue a yellow on body. Three lights underneath it. No windows on sides anyway and like I said it made absolutely no sound whatsoever. And this was in the early afternoon yet none was around but my friend and I.

Was driving in hogsback road looking for locations to do some night photography. Stopped at a location to take a test shot with my phone... the object appeared or caught my eye as I was shooting the picture... went back to my jeep to get my camera with telephoto lens, keeping my eye on it the entire time, about 20 seconds opened door and grabbed my camera taking my eyes off for approx 10 seconds when I turned around it was gone. There was no sound coming from it, it was approximately 1/4-1/2 mile from me. It appeared to be between 10-20 feet across and shiny...
