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.

Driving to work I noticed what I thought was an airplane until I noticed no aviation lights, just a pulsating white light like a star. I noticed it between 2 stars before it started moving. It would get very bright then real dim. I slowed down to watch it then noticed it started moving. Very slowly at first, then gaining speed. I started watching as it started to make a couple sharp 90° turns and I knew it wasn't an airplane. It took off very fast then slowed down and done a couple zig zag maneuvers before it stopped. Once it stopped it sat for 2-3 seconds before just disappearing but i never seen it fly off, it just vanished. I didn't have time to get my phone to take any pictures or videos. It was only 1 craft that I noticed. I've never had any experience like this before. I'm an avid stargazer and have no reports of any mental health issues in my family. I'm a healthy 29 year old male with no medical or mental health issues. There has been 1 other UFO sighting in my same small town back in the 1980's that I know of. Very strange sighting and have seen a couple stories of the exact same lights in other places.

the domed saucer had lights around the dome, and hovered close to the ground-with a loud humming noise.
