Other over Brighton (Ore Lake), MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Okay so here Iam on ore lake having a fire by myself and i just happen to look up above the lake on the edge of my big pine tree, and i see what looks identical to a star just shining in the sky, so I'm watching it and its moving east for about 2 minutes, I'm staring at it, there are no blinking lights at all like I said same exact color and size as a star that's just shining, eventually it went too far for my eye sight to see anymore and i have very good eye vision. Weird never seen that before, maybee a satellite, I don't know but it wasn't a plane cause I'm close to the airport so I know what they look like, once again same color and size of a bright star that u would see in the every night sky, its very clear out right now too. Star sighting?? PD

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.
