Sphere over Gary, OH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We witnessed 6 stationary bright spheres one, the wing leader in front, 5 in the back all lined up, some were moving vertically and climbing up. Then 3 spheres went out like a lightbulb, the rest soon followed. Yellow in color. They were over Lake Michigan and we were on the highway, traveling to Chicago. I have footage and one photo which I'll be uploading. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #124045). 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.
