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.

My daughter and I we're driving into town when we noticed two lights in the sky that were not moving. On one side was a blue light(my daughter thought green) and on the other end was a red light. Then beside each colored light two big bright white lights began to flash. It looked like someone kept flashing their headlights but in the sky above us. My daughter tried to get a video, but you couldn't really make anything out, even though it didn't look far away to the naked eye. 20 minutes later, when we came back through the area, it was no where to be found.

Me, my brother, my best friend and a close buddy (all college graduates, professionals in our late 20’s, early 30’s) were stargazing at while camping at cherry spring state park. We first saw a shooting star and thought that would be the coolest thing we saw or maybe if lucky we would see the milky way. Instead we saw an odd shaped craft off in the distance that was flickering red and blue lights or a purplish light. We were all taken back cause it was unlike anything we expected to see or had seen before. We thought maybe it was a satellite or a space station. But then it began to move in a direct line to the right (a few inches in the sky) and then in a direct smooth and controlled line back to where it was. Intelligent coordinated movement. This left us questioning what the hell did we see? I am now confident that we saw a UFO

I observed a red and orange ball of light moving slowly, from East to West, for about 2 minutes. When the ball was approximately 1 mile from town, and about 2000 feet above the ground, it turned to the right. The ball then proceeded to travel North over a hill rising at a faster pace than its East to West movement. The total time was just about 4 minutes and I was able to get a picture and take a minute and a half video. Both are horrible quality, as it was on my phone and very low light.
