Sphere over Canton, MI

The report, as filed

March 20th 7:30 to 7:45 I was on my phone talking with my girlfriend driving due west down joy rd in Wayne county, Mi. The sky was clear, pink and blue as the sun set. I made a comment to her on what I thought was Venus ((sic. Jupiter)) making an appearance in the evening sky. I thought it odd for it should be in the East. The UFO was 45 degrees 55 degrees off the horizon due West and holding still. I made a mental note of 2 aircraft. The 1st a passenger jet flying due east at high elevation (Contrail) full visibility less than 100 miles out and closing fast with UFO off its South/East at the 1st planes 2 o’clock and at a lower ceiling.(UFO). Pilots had to see it. 2nd passenger jet was flying due North West at lower altitude full visibility of it in forefront climbing and closing in at 30 miles out. UFO would be maybe 80 miles due North/West of 2nd plane at a slight elevation to 2nd plane 10’oclock. Pilots had to see it. So as stated the UFO looked like VENUS bright and clear light. But when it dimmed which at first I thought maybe a light skim of cloud pass through it, I noticed it “Twinkling” the light it look as if it was rotating left to right. It grew bright again and then I thought Venus does “Not Twinkle” like a star. All the time I was giving play by play to my girlfriend on the phone. As both planes closed in on the UFO air space it just went dark, turnoff, disappeared, and vanished!!!! Just was not there anymore!!! It did not fly off it just went it to Cloaking mode. My original Face Book post 20 March at 20:08 Okay I thought I would share this with you all about 20 minutes ago I was driving due West and noticed a bright shiny light that I thought was Venus in the Western sky it kind of faded out and then got bright again. I thought it was the clouds fading out Venus in the Western sky but then the two planes that were flying in that direction got in view and the bright white light disappeared it wasn't Venus I saw in the Western sky and it sure wasn't a reflection of some plain headlight because it was way too big I thought it was the planet Venus, but I think I just saw a UFO it was a white bright orb and it disappear just like that !!!!!!!!!!!!
