Light over Thiensville, WI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Took the dog out to the backyard one last time before bed. Looked up and thought I saw a very fast moving jet above me, below the moon. Then another one followed right behind it, then another. I realized there were no sounds, then another. I ran in to get my fiance and she saw the first string of lights and even more coming. All heading south to north towards Port Washington. I took a video of the last few and realized all were equadistant apart, all in a line. I opened my satellite/star app and no satellites were listed at the time. I counted 20+ when I came out to the last.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #156219). 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.
