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.

Two witnesses described numerous (7-10) orange-type lights in a cone-like formation formation in the sky coming from the south heading north toward Oak Grove. The dogs were acting crazy at this time. About 3-5 minutes later one of the witnesses looked straight up and noticed what he called a "flying saucer". The main witness then scrambled to get a cell-phone shot of the craft and got only about 4 seconds of video. The object was perfectly round with the center (about half the mass) black or dark gray. with its outside being silver gray and middle almost black, described as a flying saucer. Apparently the outside of this object was being illuminated by the city lights as the saucer was not lit. Witnesses described a smell of burning wiring. After the saucer-like ship flew past, military choppers were everywhere in the sky. Witness has actual video of one of the choppers chasing one of these lights. Within a 5-minute time-frame the witnesses saw 3-4 lights or orbs which went in the same direction, disappeared, then reappeaed and headed in a different direction from east to west. Within 7-10 minutes they began to hear and see 7-10 military choppers flying around in an apparent search pattern, then finally right over his house..The entire episode lasted approximately 30 minutes.

On July 15, 2015, my son and I saw a spherical looking object traveling from south east to north west direction. The object looked like a shooting star at first coming down then it changed color to orangish red in color and did a erratic bounching movement. I caught it on my tablet before it went out of sight, heading towards Grain Valley, Missouri, and disappeared from sight.
