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 wife and I watched this spot of light make rapid but short excursions at about 35 degrees above the horizon in the south east probably 120 degrees. The intensity and location is like Venus but the time is wrong. The light changes position erratically and fast too fast for an airplane. Moves right left up and down always returning to roughly the same location.

Saturday, August 15, 2015 - Approximately 09:44PM. While over at a neighbor's party, myself, my neighbor, and at least one of his guests observed a commercial aircraft flying from west-northwest to east-southeast. As we watched, a solid white light (which we at first assumed to be a satellite) lit up, moving in the exact same direction as and roughly 1-2 miles directly behind the commercial aircraft. Both aircraft and light were slightly to the south of us, traveling from about west northwest to east southeast. As one of the guests attempted to record it, the light began to dim - yet several seconds before disappearing completely, I witnessed it come to a complete stop! Unknown if guest managed to succeed in recording object. And NO - I had NOT been drinking.
