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.

Dad called me to the backdoor and said, "check this out". Large red pulsating light located in southern sky in stationary location. As another identified plane on a straight trajectory path headed toward it, the object went dark. Definitely an odd situation as large red pulsating lights typically do not just disappear.

I live 1 mile south of the 91 freeway, was looking in the southern sky at how unusually bright Orion's belt constellation and surrounding stars were then, then bright non blinking light crafts flew away together in unison, in same star positions leaving the real constellation behind in the sky, and they traveled south in the sky until we could no longer see them. Right after a military helicopter approaching from the west, heading east flew over and also an F-15 flew very high over our house for at least an hour, looking for something.

I was looking up at the moon. Several degrees below the moon I thought I saw a drone, however, there were no blinking lights or sounds. It must've been much higher up than I thought. It traveled from the southern sky to the eastern. As it got to the eastern part of the sky, it seemed to elongate, and then change shape again -- for awhile it looked like a hawk doing barrel rolls. When it was done with the acrobatics, it must've decided to go vertical because it went from having a visible tangible shape to looking like any other star in the sky, and then the cloud cover made it disappear.

Object was traveling east to west high in the sky and was of an orange color with no flashing lights or strobes. It was traveling at a relatively high rate of speed, slowed to a stop and disappeared. This is a clear night event, we are familiar with aircraft in the area and this object was completely and absolutely different.

Last night as my boyfriend and I were out for our nightly walk, he pointed out a bright blue light in the sky. The light went up pretty fast then dropped mid sky in close proximity to a plane. It then moved left towards the plane, stayed there for a while then backed away again. The light went back up kind of fast, and proceeded to drop towards earth slowly until out of sight. Object was not observed going back up to the sky. There were 2 aircraft's in the vicinity of the sighting and they remained there for a long time, as if they were looking for it or waiting for it to go back into the sky.

While driving home I looked up and saw 2 diamond shape fire flames. I pulled over to the curb. My friend and I watch these thing's travel real slow in unison. They were about 350 feet up and were about 10 feet apart, one being above the other. They looked like golden flames and seemed to be as big as a beach ball from where we were. they started to get closer to each other. We thought they were going to merge. They didn't. They stopped for a moment then one took off towards the North west going low and the other went high. then tiny lights that weren't showing before blinked slowly. Then it went a bit higher, the tiny lights went off and it disappeared.
