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.

Right near where Venus is in the sky, about 10 times the size of Venus in terms of visibility. Very bright white light, mostly circular, with a slight tail/point on one side. Appeared about 40 feet above tree line, moved in a diagonal/downward motion, and then disappeared again. There was one object, full visibility lasted for about 5 seconds. Moved quickly but not fast enough to be some sort of shooting star/meteor.

It almost looked like a jet, roughly 5 miles west of North Andover. Very few clouds. The "craft" making a trajectory of a cowbell or triangle, 3 motions, each corner of the "cowbell" was a speed increase. The third motion is what leads me to believe it was a UFO, fastest moving thing I've ever seen, going seemingly to space at the third motion. First motion could of been overlooked, the second as well, though the third motion to go that speed I feel would have taken longer to go the distance. So instead of completing a triangle shape with the motion of the trajectory, it went up. The third motion, at that increased speed after the second motion made me realize that I had seen something worth reporting. Thank you.

I was sitting on top of my friends truck with about 20 kids. We just got ice cream and we’re enjoying the stars. Suddenly I noticed 5 stars in a pentagon formation moving together in perfect alignment. Never broke formation. Never stopped. Looked like stars but they moved very fast and it was clear they were smaller and inside the earths atmosphere. I yelled to my friends and they saw it as well.

Decided to take my dog on a hike on Holt Hill reservation. Always go there for a long hike and to enjoy the view on the top of the mountain which oversees the area and one could also see Boston from it. As I walked toward the open area to look over to Boston, my dog suddenly stopped and pointed towards the open area that you can see Boston. When I looked over, I noticed what I thought was just a plane just taking off in the distance, except it was kind of bright. No noises or anything. My dog started to whine as in he wanted to go check it out running back and forth for me to move. Kept walking a little further in the trail and it started to move slower, it was a good few miles away then it deter to the east and disappeared. The object was triangular awoth lights on the bottom. It came from a wooded area in the distance. Looked up nearest airports and there were no airports near that location.
