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.

I may be on the wrong site, but I saw a huge "star" alone in the sky and within 30 minutes, it kept getting smaller and smaller....very fast.. Not a satellite, not an aircraft... Very strange to me.. I know for a fact it wasn't a satellite or aircraft.. I watched it because it was so big at one point.. Does anyone know what I saw? Possible sighting of Venus, we wonder?? PD
