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.

Was driving down road and shiny object caught my eye in sky . I took pictures cause I thought it was weird. The object was stationary in the sky then moved towards the left and disappeared from sight . There was also a green hollow ring in the sky to the direction it moved before it vanished. The object seamed to reflect the suns light on the top and seemed silver but I could not really tell due to the reflecting light on the orb. I witnessed this in the daytime. I thought it was a balloon at first but it was too large and the the way it moved and then disappeared from sight at such a fast rate scared me cause balloons do not do that .I saw this with my eyes and it also appears in the photos.

While arriving home we saw a large bright light above our home. It was huge, swaying side to side. We watched it for a while. We saw greenish lights around the object. No sound at all. It changed shapes a couple times and would become brighter. Then it just completely disappeared. We took photos and video..

V shaped - many tiny lights in a V shape sitting still below clouds in Hidden Harbor s/d. Lights suddenly disappeared just to reappear seconds later then object began to move fast heading in direction of chickamauga dam. Object around the size of a large passenger plane, but the lights were just a whole bunch of tiny lights that formed a V shape. Noticed while out driving around looking at Christmas lights. I've never seen anything like this in my life nor am I an avid Ufo Hunter of any kind. It was simply just "there."

At 0:15 I heard a very load helicopter. I step outside to a cloudy dark moonless night. So, trying to perceive the direction. I quickly realized that it was directly in front of me moving toward me. As I started watching the chopper which looked as a military black chopper moving very fast. As it cleared the tree line 50 feet from me I could clearly see the chopper and the front blacked out, a red solid light on the left side and I beleive a green flashing light on right. It was only 300 feet max probably 250 above me. I'm no expert but I've lived 500 feet from a small airport behind my house and that was the direction they where flying. At that point I realized that about 100 feet in front of the chopper was what I took as a bright orange star. Silent and moving fast. As the 2 flew over me directly, I had to twist my head, and spin directly behind, to watch the chopper chasing this star disappear over the tree line. It was less than a minute that even the sound of this very loud chopper was gone. I proceeded with a horrible headache.

We suspect an evening sighting, and have changed the time above to reflect that fact. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous, and provides no contact information, so we are unable to confirm the time. PD

I was sky-watching at 10:30 pm EST. South from my location a pair of lights "turned on" for about 5 seconds, and then "turned off" again. They were side by side, the light on the left was white and the light on the right was green. They didn't move in any direction, just came on and went back off.
