Circle over Near Detour, Michigan, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We observed the rotating light in the sky at Dennys cabin surrounded by trees. I have 2 videos, one is 42 sec. and the 2nd one is 1 min. 11 sec. long. No sound associated with the sighting. We observed the object for an hour. We actually got in the truck to see if we could find a source. The we went in the cabin to go to bed. We put the incident off to border patrol ??? But it was very strange. The object did move but stayed in the vicinity. The cabin is located very near the Canadian border. We rationalized it as man made and did not report. But still bothers us as to what we saw. You can hear the waves of Lake Huron.

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.
