Circle over Shelby Townshiip, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Two rounds non blinking lights moving from south east to northwest at very high altitude. The circular lights were moving at an extremely fast speed. The we’re moving parallel to each other. One light circle was noticeably brighter than the other. Selfridge air force base is close by and I have seen many aircraft flying overhead over the years. These light circles were something I have never seen before. The speed was tremendous. I would compare it to the speed of the space station which I have seen before. Possibly satallites was my only explaination? Definitely not the space station. Was wondering if any other reports were made but did not find any.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #152302). 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.
