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.

Every night around the same time. These lights, come out. There's no way there satellites, you can see planes coming un, helicopter etc, it comes low enough and will hide from the camera. They come in a cluster that almost looks like a triangular big ship. If I record the object it's starts to hide from my phone amd will flash back a red beam that you can hear pulsating my phone

Yellowish orange light appeared in the night sky out of the blue. It wasn’t a plane, but we couldn’t make out shape, then it dropped 2 distinct small red circles and a smaller third barely distinguishable. It disappeared, and about 2 seconds later another one followed but this one did not release anything,it also disappeared at about the same distance the first one did. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
