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 in my bedroom about to fall asleep when I looked out the window, and saw a pulsing orange/red light in the western sky. It hovered for a minute or two, and then began to slowly move north, and shot away. A few minutes later, a similar light appeared in the exact same spot, like the first one, it hovered for a minute or two, and unlike the first one, it slowly moved to the south, and shot away. Then another few minutes later, another light appeared suddenly in the same spot the second one was last seen, eventually it shot away, and nothing was seen after that. During the sighting, there were some aircraft in the area, but none seemed to be trailing any of the lights.
