Circle over Ann Arbor (Milan), MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw 2 big orange/amber lights coming from the south of Milan. Could not tell what they where because no noice, or sound of propellers, went over my house, lights went out 2 saucer shaped objects appear flying toward ann arbor or north watched them disappeared into horizon. Me and my grandson where out in the deck drinking beer and watching the airplanes going and coming from Detroit metro. The light was like I never seen before, I swear we saw the saucer shape objects flying, no sound, but we could see saucer shape, could not get pics.

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.
