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 husband and I observed a spinning circle that flared and changed colors in the sky over the ocean in Bethany Beach on the night of November 23, 2020 at 10:24-10:44pm. I first noticed it from our bedroom window four blocks from the beach. The colors it was emitting were red, blue, green, silver, and gold. We drove to the beach to take a closer look. While on the sand, we took some iphone photos and a video of it until it disappeared about 10:44. I am a retired educator and my husband is a business owner.

Observed a long line of approximately 20 moving objects high in the sky, They were moving at a very high rate of speed and made no sound. Eventually lost sight of all but 3 and they simply disappeared as if a light turned off. Immediately after that two objects ahead of the three briefly got very bright and then disappeared.

My son and I were sitting on a bench along the sidewalk in Bethany beach Delaware. My sons wife and 2 small children were window shopping. My son and I were watching 3 airplanes flying approximately 2 or 3 miles apart in a easterly directions with long contrails, maybe 20 to 25 thousand ft. The middle airplane was above us. All of a sudden we saw a silver cone saucer shaped object coming from the north east. The object approach the airplane, we thought they we going to collide. The object flew along side the airplane for maybe 2 seconds. Then speed off to the southwest for a few seconds the blinked out! We were astonished that we just witnessed a UFO.. Total time around 10 seconds. Time of day, 11:10 am..

My brother and I were walking along the boardwalk and noticed a small orange light above us. We first thought it was a plane but planes didn't give off such a bright orange shade. It started off coming towards us and ascending. Then as it seemed as if it was about to come above us it stopped, and ascended until it faded out of sight. Many people ignored it thinking it was some event. We watched it the whole way and saw it go straight up into the sky until disappearing into space. Witness provides no contact information. PD
