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.

1 Oct 21 approx 1030 pm coming home from hockey game. I saw a bunch of orange lights in the Eastern sky that I thought at first were lights on top of very tall towers coz they pulsed slightly but then I realized there aren't any towers in that direction. They were about the same size maybe 7 or 8. As we rounded the corner I asked my husband what were they and pointed them out . He said maybe planes in formation, because at that point they appeared to be forming a line heading to the west. We stopped the car to listen and see if they were helicopters. 1 flew over us fairly high up but there was not a single sound. The others appeared to turn to the south then disappeared. 1 more started flying in our direction (westerly as did the first). I got out of the car and watched it, heard nothing, then it suddenly disappeared from view before it got overhead. I thought it went behind some clouds, but my husband said that the cloud layer was way too high. I didn't see! it again. The whole thing lasted about 15 minutes.

Spider looking UFO: Walking at night, my wife and I were looking at the night sky in the direction of Cassiopeia. Suddenly, we both saw a dark-matt egg shaped object flying at low altitude, going south, faster than any airplane or drone that size at that altitude, slower than any shooting star and completely silent. Its size was small, perhaps it was as big as a car flying 2000 feet over our heads. My wife exclaimed "A spider!", then she realized the object had dark extensions around the main body and moved them as it progressed into the night sky. I focused only on the main body and did not see the extensions. According to her they were darker. We followed it in amazement for about 20 seconds as it merged with the horizon. The main body was dark-peanut brown, perhaps emitting a very dimmed matt glow.

At 2:45 I was outside having a smoke when I saw a very large green and red fireball in the direction of Cape Kennedy on the east coast fall toward the southeast. Very large leaving a fiery trail.

I have seen this circular object in the south sky on and off for the past week. Last night I decided to take pictures of it and video tape it. It starts out looking like a very bright light shaped like a circle at dusk. As darkness comes the bright circle slowly moves down during a duration of about 2 hours. I watched it last night. Two family members were also present and witnessed this as well. Then it simply disappears. It moves so slow you can't actually see it move at all but every time I would glance up it would be in a different spot. I first noticed the circle on 10/09/16.

There were no rhythmic lights like a plane, just white light. After about 10 minutes, they moved off then completely disappeared. there was a great deal of heat type lightening happening around that time. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
