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.

I was out walking my dog and in the corner of my eye I saw an orange glowing orb jet across the sky (no sound) at an incredible speed. Once I turned my head and made full eye contact with it, it quickly passed and got obstructed by the building adjacent to me. I have seen drones before in the area that people like to fly, I can say with much certainty this was not a drone of any kind I am aware of since the glow was spherical and the rate of speed it moved was way too fast. I am unsure of the altitude since it happened so quickly, but I would imagine it is in the range of 200-400 feet (im no expert on prediction of altitude)

I was checking my oil in the Dollar General Store parking lot and saw 3 objects flying over me. Close enough that I could get a good look. They looked like 3 small silver Goodyear shaped balloons with no markings

I was driving down US 41 at 2am, lights on the buildings were flickering and I was trying to get a photo of that. There were no cars passing or approaching me. The photo I got revealed a disk shaped object with a shadow on the road, the shadow makes me inclined to think that it wasn't my camera malfunctioning, because other pictures I got of the building were very clear and there was no shadow in the other pictures. There is also a reflection of the object on my car. As I was taking the picture it felt like something very fast passed me, but it was not a car, like I said there were no other cars on the road.
