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.

At approx 5:22pm, on 26 Nov 2022, I went out onto my front porch to bring in my flag. As I was rolling up the flag I observed a single bright, white light at low altitude (500ft approx) moving above and to the left of me. I first saw it as it came over the east side of my roof. The light was traveling unusually slow for a common aircraft. There were no common aircraft running lights, no red light, no strobe. It moved from direct west to east. The light was very bright, much brighter than the stars, and appeared to "ray out" in spikes all around it. No structure could be seen. There was a long "spike" of light coming out of the back end (no sparks, fire or debris). There was absolutely no sound from it. As it passed I heard a neighbor's dog start barking (although it must be said that that dog is a constant barker). As the light got closer toward the Island Pond village it very quickly just "faded out". I watched briefly and it did not reappear along the trajectory it was on. It did not change course throughout the sighting.

Bright round light moved in and out of focus turn side to side. Once it was closest it hovered in one place. After about 10 minutes of stillness the ibhext disappeared. When the others was in sky it lit the sky like a bright full moon. Complete darkness was left after it disappeared. We have 3 minutes of video.
