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.

On the evening of 8/1/2021 around 10PM, I was walking past my dining room window and noticed an unusual light eminating through the curtains. This clearly did not make sense to me given the time of day. As I opened my curtains, I saw a large sphere, floating at a standstill, low, above my neighbors building. The sphere was red and orange in color. Although, the object was a sphere in shape, it did not hold a solid outline, almost as if it was a fireball radiating. As I observed the object, I noticed the radiation of light eminating more from the bottom, less on the top, and nothing on its sides. The sphere stood in its "upright position" during the interaction and the vessel itself did not seem to be in rotation. My gaze locked into place as I have never seen anything quite like this. After minutes of staring in disbelief, I had to move past denial and realized I was actually seeing this object. Toward the end of the 5 minute span, the object started to slowly move north, never really picking up speed, almost as if we were watching each other. Also, the object did not produce a condensation trail throughout the entire duration. The object did not disappear, it slowly traveled out of my eye sight into the distance. After the whole interaction ended, I realized there were no sounds coming from or around the object during the whole interaction.

At 5:00 AM I looked out my skylight and observed a bright saucer shaped object in the sky. The sky was clear not many clouds at all. I watched it for the 40 mins it was there and it did change when it appeared to be closer it was triangular with three different colors coming from the top. It disappeared at 5:40 AM from the same area of the sky it appeared from.

I woke up at 5 am looked out my bedroom skylight window Route 62 facing East in Beverly. The sky was clear, only a few clouds. I noticed a bright saucer shaped object in the sky, hovering far away directly from the east. When it appeared to be moving in closer it changed from one saucer to three saucers then it formed a triangle with red, blue, and orange lights coming from the top. It vanished after 40 mins. I have never seen anything like this.

Over the past three days I've been seeing sphere shaped UFOs flying directly over my home. The first sighting was of a single sphere which pulsated from black to red. The second sighting was of two white spheres going in the same direction but one was "playing" around the other as the flew silently and with no trails over our neighborhood. Yesterday was the third sighting of a single sphere. It was backlit so it appeared dark in color. I had decided to set-up a rig and get some video and I was successful. I'll include a photo with this report. The area where I live seems to be a "highway" of sorts. So, I'm sure that I'll see more and will attempt better footage.

The sky was still lit and we saw a very oddly shaped object floating about as high as a helicopter would fly, maybe higher. I ran inside to grab binoculars and my sister and I followed it as it flew west and then curved southeast. We went onto the street watching it until it was out of our sight. All of us were unable to figure out what it was even though it was so visible in our binoculars. When I first saw it it looked like it was on fire, then it just appeared very shiny/sparkly, and could have been brown in color. The shaped was so odd, scalloped on the top and more box like on its bottom. We didn't get a photo or video of it. Around this time many citizens all over our town had been reporting that their Comcast internet and cable weren't working.
