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.

A white disc in the sky flew from right to left and then vanished. We did not see it fly away, it just disappeared. The sky was open and there were no obstructions to explain why we could not see the object anymore.
