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.

They can sit stationary for hrs and also move/fly rather slowly horizontal to the horizon. I have seen them drop down in a vertical line but never noticed it going up. Almost always horizontally. I've seen just one, 3-4 and dozens at a time. I've been noticing them most of the summer, but can't find any info online of a triangle shaped craft, satellite, drone or anything. I took pics on the 9-30-22 10-3-23 and 10-5-23 the 3rd and 5th shows a thing and not a triangle. I may have more dates if not deleted. The objects always show up in pics as a circular blur and never the lights or true shape except once it shows 3 white dots where the light are almost always present. At times they will go dark unexpectedly. Pics are from an iphone se2nd gen which isn't great. But no matter how clear it always blurs even when the moon and stars Do Not. Stars show up these things never photograph clearly. I've seen them at all kinds of heights and I don't think it's ET but I also have no idea what it is. Most often there are red or white lights on the perimeter only sometimes both colors. The pics with the moon is just for reference my mailing address is 28043 but my area is Bostic, NC
