A conventional explanation is favored by the record but was never formally confirmed.
The report, as filed
The sky, the stars, and the moon were clear with no clouds or mist. We witnessed a UAP that was moving quickly across the sky from northwest to southeast. It was an orb like structure with blurred light all around it. It was moving quite fast. There were no blinking lights on it to indicate it was a plane, helicopter or other known flying object. Due to the blurred light around it, we agreed it wasn’t a satellite. The color was a warm white. [NUFORC annotation: Rocket - Probable]

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.

Always taking photos, so this is typical. After seeing so many odd things in recent 6 years, no longer draw attention to others, however, I notice…quite often. Before this photo was taken I did mention that a jet just flew by rather close and very very quickly by us. I often change settings to see what I can pull up to see the field around it. Three times I was able to visually see the calculated mathematical fields.

They asked me to show them the location of Earth/my Homeworld. I simply thought of earth and they knew the planet I'm on. The Zetas are cool, and considered 3 options: Invading Space Laser Hybridizing Human DNA They have the classical UFO shaped disk, with Greeen hands. They are clones, and have long lifespans.

I saw starlink a month ago and they were all in the straight line and these were very un uniformed three or four right next to each other if this was for internet why fly next to each other? I just spoke to Peter Davenport over the phone how awesome is that! Coast to Coast! Some were brighter than the other but going the same direction which led me to believe it could still be starlink but why still fly next to each other for internet? Sorry you said not to report if its Starlink but its still weird. Sorry I couldn't pick it up on my phone Cheers!
