As reported

Sphere over Honor, MI

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

The report, as filed

Took pictures of the Point Betsie lighthouse in Michigan on the evening of July 14th. Was there to watch sunset. Went through pictures today and noticed where I snapped a few pictures of the lighthouse, one had a large sphere by the tree tops. It's large enough you can see the sun shining on it. It must have flew away fast because my next picture it was gone. I cannot explain what this. Probably not a UFO, but cannot be certain. PD

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #135312). 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.

Honor, MI

I went outside to look at the stars since it was a clear night, and you could see the Milky Way. We were renting the place for the week and since we live in the city, we never see the Milky Way back home. I came out the back door I looked up to my right and could see one large bright circle or Orb, that was moving fast high above the treetops above the neighbor's yard. I could only see it briefly where there were no trees and then it was behind the treetops in between the yards, and I could only see glimpses of the bright light. I followed it while I kept watch of it until I got to the end of the property at the lake. Then I got a better look when it came out over Little Platte Lake. I watched it go straight across the lake to the east and disappear or I could no longer see it. It was bright like a star with no variations or flashing lights. It did not have a tail or anything behind it and it did not make any noise. I had my DSR camera over my shoulder but was not able to get a pic. By the time it came past the trees, it was moving too fast for me to be able to get it focused before it was gone. I submitted a picture of the yard and the tall trees with the lake at the end just so you can picture what I was explaining.
