Oval over Homer Glen, IL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Tuesday morning 7/14/20. Was on deck reading. Husband was reclining in chair watching dragonflies darting back and forth above him. Called me over to look at something he spotted in the sky. Looked up and way above the clouds spotted an odd oval grayish something in the sky. Way too high for any type of bird, or drone. No movement, just sat there. Off to the east was a jet heading west (with a jet stream behind it). Object was higher than jet. As jet came closer to being below object, it shot off extremely fast to the west. Still in our view, it stopped, sat a moment then shot off again to the south. We always look for a logical explanation, but couldn't explain this.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #158048). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.

Black object very high in the sky. Looked like it was a balloon or possibly 2 balloons. Looked very similar to a giant plastic bag flying ar wind speed. Flying higher than jets usually fly in this area. My friend first noticed it, then he pointed it out to me. We watched it for about 20 minutes then I had to leave.

Traveling from the northeast, these objects were red and orange, rather small, one right after the other, but not directly behind each other. I saw one hover over head. But no noise whatsoever. Then, when they reached a certain point, they went upward and disappeared quickly.
