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.

I always look up, have had multiple UFO incidents over the last few years, but this one was rectangle, flying about 2000 feet, and had lights at both ends. It was slim in nature and was traveling rather slow, just cruising. I've witnessed two triangle-shaped crafts about three .months ago, and more earlier last year and the year before.

We were walking through our backyard which leads to an alley that is very dark. I always look up at the stars. I looked up & gasped, & my 25 year old daughter looked up & directly above our heads were 15-20 craft, moving quickly, in an exact straight line. It looked like they were round with just one large round light on the bottom. They were absolutely silent. We watched them until we could no longer see them, just a matter of minutes. She got two pictures on her iphone. I am emailing them to you.

I was exiting my living room and immediately noticed the object as I looked up due North at about 1:00 o’clock position and realized it was moving erratic. I called my wife to come out and get a look. By the time my wife came outdoors it had become mostly stationary and the intensity of the light had become bright. The light then dimmed out and faded into the night sky. The Color of this object remained a fire colored orange reddish color through out the observation which lasted no more than 2 minutes. It was quite noticeable despite a bright full moon. I’d estimate the object to be somewhere in the vicinity of the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, or somewhere in the vicinity of Northern Central Valley California.
