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.

My kids and I went outside to play in a large snow pile I had plowed on our driveway a couple day’s before. It was right after dusk so I gave my kids flashlights to play in the snow tunnels they had previously made and I sat in the snow supervising their safety. It was very cold but high pressure so the sky was perfectly clear and I was enjoying the sky. My son sat next to me so I could adjust his hat and right as I went to adjust his hat I saw something moving in the sky to the west heading east. It had a fairly bright intensity of white light, slightly brighter than a star and was moving slow like when’s you see something in a polar orbit like a satellite. As it moved to the right of my viewing location it began to sparkle like maybe it was entering the atmosphere. After a second or two the sparkling stoped and it continued to move at the same speed and direction for another few seconds before there was a flash and two perfectly identical circular but slightly smaller objects with lesser light intensity were jettisoned behind the primary object and outwards at the exact time. The smaller objects quickly lost intensity and speed as the they separated and the primary objects continued on the same trajectory until it disappeared at the horizon. Myself, my son, and daughter all saw the objects.

Hilliard, OH
My eldest daughter was visiting my in-laws with several of her siblings, when they spotted approximately 3 dozen lights flying across the sky in a tight, linear formation. Other lights circled around the formation in every direction. She took two, short videos of the event. Then, after the formation of lights disappeared in the distance, another cluster of lights appeared about 10 minutes later. Before she could shoot video of those lights, they shot off in every direction at a high rate of speed. None of the objects made any noise. Some of the lights travelled in rapidly changing directions, and when they dispersed, it was nearly instantaneous. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Certain]

Hilliard, OH
There was a big circle of lights in the sky. There was one in the middle of 8-10 lights that was a little brighter than the rest. When I looked up it looked like an alinement of planets in a galaxy of how straight they were. It looked like it was gonna be the end of the world. The lights would blink and than one half of the lights would turn off than turn on than the other half would do ye same and than the lights would slowly go away one by one after about 7-10 minutes. You could see a big circle shaped ship behind the lights. It would rotate clockwise but the one main beige red light wouldn’t move position but you could tell it was rotating.

At 5:55AM or 0555 let dogs out. Was looking up at stars when suddenly I saw only a rectangle of green lights, with some black markings or lines intertwined, appear for no more than 3 seconds before it disappeared. It was heading S to N, did not see any shape below or above the lights. It was moving at a constant, fast speed. No clouds at location of sighting, clear sky. As soon as I saw it, it pretty much disappeared. Almost seemed like something was camouflaged, and then they turned the lights on for a few seconds, while the outer ship was still camouflaged, then turned lights off. Was below the height of airplanes taking off or landing, and silent. Living where I do, the city airport isn't far off and planes take off and land all day, but you always hear them, and see a trail. This thing was flying at a perfect Right to left motion, not going up or down for at least the few seconds I saw it. The crafts light was solid luminescent green, was not flickering ! or blinking like airplanes do. From my viewpoint, the rectangle of lights was about an inch long if I held my fingers up to measure. Not sure what the actual size of it would be up close, likely several yards at least. Not sure what I saw, but it certainly wasn't an plane, helicopter, drone, or anything I can think of. Stayed out for 10 more minutes going in and out of house getting ready for jog, but didn't see it again. Didn't know where to report it, so hope others saw what I did!

I was standing outside facing the north and I saw a flash of white light in the east and it traveled west and then went back towards the east. The sun was rising but the sky was still black in west. It was light enough out at that point that you couldn't see any stars in the sky.

This is not the first time seeing an UFO. It's been throughout my entire life time. My father has seen etc. I guess it's a family thing. I've had many experiences with them. I have seen many UFO's here in Ohio, along with others t been with more. As if it's watching us. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.
