Sphere over Chippewa Falls, WI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Turned on to Chippewa Crossing Blvd and noticed the lights in Southern sky. Assumed it was drones or quadcopters at first. As we got closer, I thought maybe Chinese lanterns. We went under them and turn East on 50th Ave. Still could not identify what they were. Crossed the overpass and pulled over, to see if we could see them yet. Got out of the car and looked up. They maintained an equal distance from each other and traveled in a straight line Easterly, much slower than a meteor, which we were watching for. They passed slightly to the North of us and after they passed by, the leading one faded out and the second one started to fade also. Both had reddish orange glow with a flickering orange center. Guessing they were about 1000 feet high or lower.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #123870). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.
