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.

Flying Very fast, under the moon. Was seen three times by three people. the third sighting the fireball was .75 of the way gone went black looked like a rock still going. Each time seen it came from the same flight path. North to the south east. We all saw other planes flying and could be seen crystal clear and they all had strobes. The sky is clear and a full moon.
