Other over Otisville, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On October 10, 2020 I was up around 4:30- 5a.m letting the dog outside. I saw what I assumed was an airplane, but it was flying super low. I grabbed my binoculars and followed the object as it traveled across the horizon. There was a neon orange light, and it was as moving around like crazy. The only way i can describe it was that it looked like lines leftover from a sparkler, like when you move it around and it leaves a light trail. I lost it in the trees.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #159901). 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.
