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.

I was walking my dog on Friday, November 9th, and at exactly 10:33pm, (I know because I immediately pulled out my phone to record, only to see my batt was too low, but time was exactly 10:33 pm), I saw the strangest thing in my life. A portion of the sky was blocked out by something. When I say a portion, it was a size of sky about the size of a full moon. For about 15 minutes, this area of blocked out stars moved across the sky. As if something was flying above me, but no noise. None at all. Far too big in my opinion, flying too low, to have no noise at all. It was moving as soon as I noticed it. Middle of the southern sky to the right from where I was. Without slowing down at all, it completely reversed direction and went back across the same sky. I couldn't be sure, but seemed to take the exact same path back. After one more complete reversal of direction back across the sky, the inky black spot in the sky seemed to dissolve and the a few stars behind became visible again. The only other thing I experienced was very strange behavior from my dog.. I have a 7 year old English bulldog, and she's very very active and excited when outside.. she sat at my side throughout this entire event and didn't make a sound.. anyone who has ever been around this dog would say that's impossible. She can't sit still for five seconds outside.. let alone 15 minutes, AT NIGHT.. she's usually a basket case at night..she sat there looking up, as if she couldn't, or even scarier, COULDN'T do anything else. I've barely slept since this happened. Nothing led me to believe whatever this was could "see" me. But I could feel this thing. I could feel it watching me.. when I think back to it,, I don't think I was able to move either.. I didn't try though.. I'm at a loss as to what to do or who to really tell. I didn't know what else to do, so embarrassingly I Googled it and this was the first thing that came up... I'm a little scared, could use some advice.
