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.

over Marrow Lake in Houghton Lake, fishing at 1 am when we looked up at the stars and witnessed an orange bright light in the sky at tree level over the lake. the dot appeared to move in spontaneous directions such as circular motions, up and down, never followed a pattern. stayed there and kept moving. we checked the rest of the sky and found smaller similar moving lights. never moving like a plane.

Grayling, MI

We saw bright object northwest at 45 degrees which danced like on string zig zag. Not an object or craft but far away yet seemed within atmosphere, but unlike any satellite and brighter than any star. Looked like traces shooting at it and it was giving off visible lights pulsing out. This went on several hours and it went quickly back up around but seemed to maintain position cwithin three stars
