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 took videos. Glowing fireballs moving across the sky. Approximately one minute behind the next. They were orangeish/red in color and resembled round balls of fire. They made no noise at all. The lights did not blink and moved in a straight line.

I witnessed the objects flying in a diamond pattern at a pretty slow pace while I was driving. The objects where’s orange in color. I looked away for 30 sex’s to try to find a good spot to pull over to try to get a picture and by time I looked up again the lights were gone.

I was driving to get something to eat @ 10:15pm. When I was about to turn the corner in the opposite direction, I saw out the corner of my eye, what I thought would have been the moon-I saw 6 distinct bright white lights in a line, slightly arched...stretching from the South to the North miles across one part of the sky wayyyyy to the other side. A dark shadow also could be seen behind the lights. They were moving West. I started to follow them in my car. My radio was staticy. Then within 30 secs of following-they changed into 1 reddish orange light. The white lights never moved or changed positions or faded out. It was just all these white lights, then the reddish orange and then it was gone. No sound, no streak of light. A little flicker from red to orange. It was just there so massive and then gone. The cell phone battery was no where near dead, but as soon as the camera opened the phone died.

I took astronomy in high school and have been an amateur star gazer ever since. I am an avid watcher of science programs about the universe and stars and all things pertaining to the study and science of space and the bodies in it. I also live close to two airports that have both civilian and military aircraft both fixed wing and helicopters. What I saw was a flashing blue light traveling at a very high rate of speed. It appeared oval in shape. There were no other lights other than blue. It traveled from the North West to the South East. I observed it for approximately 10 seconds before it was out of sight
