The report, as filed
Standing out in front of my apartment complex, saw a white shiney dot moving quickly across the sky, pulled 2 direct 90 degree turns, then continued off in the direction it was originally heading, it was daytime so details were vague, but multiple 90 degrees turns made it stand out, i believe it was heading east.

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.

One flashed like a lighter trying to be lit. Would flash, go dark, move, and then flash again a further distance away. And repeat [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Certain]

I was looking out my window and saw an object that was round and changed colors rapidly. It looked like it was spinning as it changed colors and then all of a sudden it vanished into thin air.

I saw 6 star like dots vertical 3 in a row vertical and 3 parallel to the othe other 3 vertical. I saw it by the north star at first looked like a cluster of stars but I saw it move from close to the north star to east of the sky in the few minutes until I showed somebody else. The lights on each side would blink. One on the left side would go dark then one on the right side would and then the opposite side would light back up again. It was barely visible when it was close to the north star but when it went east it got really bright and very noticable.
