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.

Large bright solid reddish yellow light moving west to east. Light ejected projectiles in groups of 2 towards the ground that looked like the end of a meteor when it fizzles out 4 times for a total of 8 identical projectiles then just disappeared, not flares no sound and too low to be a commercial airliner. Tried to take video but didnt turn out.

My younger sister was in her room and noticed what looked like the lights of an airplane out the window, to the southwest, through a crack in her curtains. Given the small area for her to see the lights, she began to doubt it was from an airplane as they remained stationary, so she and my other sister went outside to see if they could get a better look. There was no sound to be heard, so they decided it wasn’t a helicopter either. As they continued to watch, the lights grew dimmer and disappeared.
