What would the paper say?
The NZDF released its UFO files in 2010; further records answer to the Official Information Act 1982. 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.

Object was moving very fast through the cloud, I watched it to see it come out the other side of the cloud but it didn't, then I saw it again at the same place in the cloud where I originally saw the first one, again watching it, when it reached the end of the cloud, it disappeared. It was long, a cylinder shape but moved so fast, I didn't have my phone on me at the time to take pictures.

it looked like a shooting star, but it was in the sky for way to long for it to be a commet or asteroid
