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.

There has been fighter jets out so I went out to watch them. (I live near westover afb, so it's normal) A black hawk had just flown over and I was recording a fighter jet and plane with Chemtrails in the sky. I didn't notice any extras sounds except the original fighter jet, but I saw a larger (than the fighter jet) black saucer-like object fly super fast past the fighter jet and out of visual range. In checking the video, it's at the 48 seconds timer, enters on the left side, and is off screen in less than one second. It was gone so fast. In the video, there is a shadow/ visual mark of something else behind it, but I don't know what it is either. I uploaded a snippet of the video because your system doesn't let the whole video.

My husband caught sight of something shiny in the sky that seem to be so far up there behind the clouds far past where airplanes were going by. I took a photo through binoculars with my iPhone. It seem to be the shape of a saucer definitely metallic and kind of moved around a bit erratically but stayed in the same general area. We had seen something similarly about two weeks before this event. He was in a little bit of a different location in the sky but very similar.

My husband and I had just finished watching the grand finale of the 2017 fireworks display in East Longmeadow, MA, on July 3, 2017. The last sparkles were fading and it became apparent that there was a rectangular (like a domino piece), stationary, green-lighted object parked above where the fireworks had been exploding so it was concealed by the display. The color was like grass or leaf green--very saturated, bright and pure. From our distance, it was about the size of an M & M candy. My husband said he saw a dark dividing “line” separating the green light on either side. We looked at it, expecting it to move like an aircraft or helicopter but the light blinked while staying stationary for about 3 seconds. I expected to see red running lights and/or white landing lights indicating the craft was on approach to Bradley International Airport to the West, but there were no other lights. The object then moved a little Southward while blinking erratically, then abru! ptly turned at a 90 degree angle and went a bit toward the East, stopped, then took off, accelerating, in a Northeasterly direction for what looked like 2 or 3 inches and then disappeared. No noise other than the fireworks was heard. Not sure if anyone else noticed.

We thought, gee that’s really weird, and continued to watch it for several minutes. We continued our walk, looking up once in a while to see that it was still not moving. After a few minutes we looked up again and noticed 2 of the lights had changed to green and were flashing and the triangle was moving extremely quickly in a straight line to the south. There was no noise during this time coming from the object.
