Light over Nashville, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At 5:30 am while walking my dog in backyard, I noticed what I thought was a satellite in the northeast sky. As I watched it travel I noticed a 2nd light, then a 3rd, & so on until I counted 8-9 lights. All evenly spaced & traveling at the same speed. I looked past the location where I originally noticed the first light to see how far across the sky they were traveling. It appeared they were emulating from something where I spotted the original light. The lights appear to fall downward instead of propelling themselves. They were out in the sky quite a ways. If I had to guess, I would say they were out in the outer atmosphere. Northeast of my home would be Saginaw Bay Mi., Ontario Canada, then the north Atlantic.

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.
