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 was in my yard and a star proceeded to move approximately 7 inches in the sky, southwest to northeast, revealing a triangular shape expanding and shifting into position above my location, seeming to nestle into the constellations appropriate to its configuration. It seems the second dimension, at a distance, illusory in nature, formed a geometric transparency. Shortly after, a bustle in the woods convinced me to retire to the indoors.

I just saw 9 ufo's about half hour ago. I was taking my dogs for a walk. When we were out in front of the house, I looked up and saw two round orange lights up in the sky. They were moving from east to west silently. Suddenly there were four orange glowing lights above me. I called brian and two dissappeared. Finally the other two dissappeared. Five minutes later two more appeared east and moved towards the west. It was over the house and a third orange round light appeared. Two more appeared then no more. They very bright, orange, much bigger than stars. The sky was cloudy tonight. And completely silent. I don't drink, or do drugs. WHAT DID WE SEE? I have a video.

I saw an object, way to big to be a star! It stays still but will change position. I haven't seen it in the move. It goes up and down, last night it was over to the South. Over the last week I have seen 3 at one time. Also ,what looks like a plane with flashing red lights will fly up to them! What could this be? We suspect a "twinkling" star. PD
