As reported

Cross over Blue Island, IL

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

We live in the south suburb of Blue Island, my wife called me to the porch to view a low flying, cross shaped, "aircraft" (~19:30) with bright solid red light ... coming from the south and heading northeast toward the Chicago loop, or over Lake Michigan area. The craft made no sound - flying is a straight line ... probably about a house length or two apart with exception of the last three that came over ~ 5 minutes later. The last one appeared to circle back to go south . I recorded the flyover on my Samsung ... rather blurry images.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #124470). 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.
