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.

JUST ABOVE THE TREE LINE WAS A LONG BAR LIKE SHAPE WITH LIGHTS IN IT. BEHIND IT WERE SEVERAL LIGHTS FOLLOWING IT. IT SEEMED TO MOVE SLOWLY ACROSS THE SKY BEFORE MAKING A TURN AND FADED AWAY.

At approximately sunset saw long vertical contrail with red light blinking moving object going straight up. Around this contrail were hovering stationary white lights about half -way up contrail, which looked like helicopters at first, but remained bright and stationary for over an hour.

We didn't actually see a craft but heard a loud rumbling thunder, very close, that last over 2 minutes. It upset the cat even. I thought the lake ice was cracking and my husband thought it was an aircraft. We didn't see any aircraft and there was not a storm. I cannot find any records of anyone else hearing this noise.

Light that made its self thinner and moved fast sideways, while changed different colors ...until finally disappeared behind a tree. Right after it was a plane. I honestly couldn't tell if it was chasing it or not, but there's so etching strange about that coincidence. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) It was at 9:25 pm, thank you so much for the advice will do!
