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.

Object move very fast. Super fast. Then. Move enough to make a flash then leave sky. I have to talk to someone explain more.

My wife and I were traveling north on Highway 351 when we saw a triangular set of lights (2 white and one red) hovering over a house. The lights looked to be about 80 feet over the house and hovering. It was completely dark. We thought it was a low flying aircraft at first but the object never moved. We watched it from the time we approached the house and as we passed. The lights are estimated to be about 25 feet apart. In my opinion the lights were too far apart to be a drone. I went back to the spot in the daylight to see if there was some sort of tower there. There was not.

04/05/20 20:30 hours, just after dark, clear sky. I went outside to look for our cat and looked up to see a very bright white light, about as high as a jet moving west to east. I saw no other lights except a singular bright white light. About 3/4 the way across the sky the light abruptly turned off. The light did not flash or change speed or direction. At first I thought it was the space station passing over, it occured to me that the space station isnt that bright. It moved about as fast as a jet, it was high as a jet. A minute later I did see a jet fly south/north. The red lights were clearly visible, I could even see the engines glowing. I mentioned this because I know a jet when I see one.

On Dec. 23,2019 about 3pm, me and my fiancé was pulling into a shopping center parking lot in Jonesboro Ar, we were facing west. I saw a small round shiny object in the sky. I told him to look and that it didn’t look like an airplane or a helicopter, he agreed. It was only for about 5 seconds and then it was gone.
