Formation over Lewiston, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Last night in northern Michigan it was a clear sky and I happened to look up at the moon, that’s when I noticed an extremely bright white light flashing with no sound, slowly moving across the sky to the northeast. As I continued to watch the light, I noticed what appeared to be a satellite heading southeast. Directly behind the first object, in single file, precisely spaced, followed a total of 32 objects. Again, there was no sound, I assumed they were satellites. Concerning, yet interesting.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #152411). 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.

On August 11th 2020, the Perseids were shooting over the sky. My family and I were staying on a lake with virtually no light pollution so every night we would go out and watch the meteors. On this night, at around 10pm, I was looking over the lake when I saw an orange (what can only be described as a fireball) shooting over the sky, but it went over slowly. It wasn't a meteor because of how slow it went over the lake. It took around 30 seconds to be out of eyesight. My brother, mother, and father all saw this ufo, and we have no idea what they are.
