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.

The orb was hovering at helicopter height between SR 73/Redwood Road just outside of Saratoga Springs where we store commercial explosives. I watched it for a few seconds thinking it was a National Guard bird catching a reflection. Then it took off at incredible speed away from me towards the lake and disappeared. I am a veteran with extensive observation experience. It was not a helicopter, drone, or fixed wing aircraft.

I’m not entirely convinced that this is a drone. But I know it’s plausible for a drone to hover for 1-2 maybe even more minutes. What’s striking to me is how bright and how visible this light was. Also why there and at that particular time? I’ve sworn I have seen this light before just about at dusk but others have said it’s an airplane or satellite or something logical. Am I crazy? Also my phone camera doesn’t focus good enough and the distance I guess to be about 50 miles away is too vast to capture in high definition what it is.

I was driving to work going down Pony Express Road when a meteorite like object burst down from the clouds towards the ground. It burned in a bright green light very similar to the green light on a traffic light but more intense. Half way on its trajectory it broke down into 3 pieces and vanished before hitting the ground. It seemed as if it was shot out of something that was either inside or above the clouds. This event happened about 6 months ago. Sorry for not reporting it before. I am a male nurse and an immigrant from Brazil.

After a short rainstorm, I was in our back yard, looking for a rainbow with my four-year old daughter. Looking East toward the mountains, I see a spot of light hovering in the sky. I thought it to be the landing lights an airplane at first, then noticed about five other points of light near the first. The lights seemed to dance around each other for a time. I watched for a short time, then each light seemed to fade into the clouds one after another. While I watched, the lights never moved far from their locations in the sky. There was no apparent pattern to them or anything like that. Just apparently random points of light playing in the sky.
