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.

Moving at extreme speed, the sphere was small and lower than planes fly. No sound was emitted, and no blinking lights to indicate it was a plane or helicopter. No trail was left which would have indicated it to be a shooting star.

My 3 year old son and I, whitnessed a metallic sphere shaped object appear over Grizzly Peak. At first I thought it was a freakishly small blimp, but it was much too round. It traveled in a straight line (South) and seemed to be spinning, showing off the reflection of the sun, giving it a metallic look. I literally blinked and it was gone. I scanned the sky for 30 min after and didn't see a thing.

The smoke from neighboring fires finally ceased direction and I was looking to the skies to point out satellites to a friend. While my friend went inside I noticed a very bright slow moving light, I began to test if my phone camera would pick it up; it did. After filming 12 seconds, I stopped the recording and refocused on the object with my eyes. Within 5 seconds the light almost appeared to stop living then shrank in both size and light intensity before vanishing completely. I observe aircraft and satellites daily and this is unlike anything I've seen first hand.

I was driving home from baby sitting my cousin and was driving on Main Street just about a mile or 2 outside of town. All of a sudden I saw a bright green glowing light come over and down the mountain on my right (like it was coming from Mt. Ashland). it got low and probably 300 feet over my car and then stopped descending and moved flat towards i5. wind it got to the interstate, it just disappeared.

This is a cell phone video. It speaks for itself. Video has not arrived at NUFORC, despite several attempts to invite the witness to send it. PD

gf and I spotted "star," like object in the night sky that began gliding in the night sky seamlessly towards the east, and once the spacecraft passed of the mountains and out of sight... 40-60 Seconds later, a extremelely fiery bright "comet-like" object shot from east to west, streaked completely from east to west until disappearing over the western mountains. The obejct appeared to be wrapping around the horizon as i chased until i lost sight. Also noticably throughout there we no aircrafts during the entire sighting of the spacecraft, and moments after the craft streaked through the air, 2 airplanes with regular airplane jet noises and lights flew over as if the experience never happened… (( Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.
