As reported

Changing over Whitefish Bay, WI

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

At approximately 19:35 on Thursday, October 15, 2020 my attention was abruptly directed to look outside my sliding doors beyond my balcony some 30 ft. to the edge of my balcony railing from my 4th floor apartment. I was talking to a friend on the phone when I said “There’s something hovering in the night sky.” I walked over to my balcony narrating what I was seeing to my friend. There was a group of about 12 lights clumped together in the north sky. The night sky was clear but there was only a single star lower from the group of lights that I saw. The lights ran parallel in two rows 6 in each row. The lights did not move until I started to take some pictures. Some I took through a screen door and others I took directly from the balcony in the night air. Only one picture remained on my phone camera. It was as if they did not want to be photographed and began squiggling and jerking. Were they moving or was the camera moving? Good question. I would say both. As! they moved I was desperately trying to capture their movement. I should have started the video:-) Other lights moved away from the squiggly lights and looked like it could have been a plane. I know this may sound strange but it’s like there was a meeting in the sky between a UFO and a plane. When I pinched the picture on my camera to enlarge it, it appears to suggest 3 sections on two limbs with joints and feet. Then, it was gone without leaving a noticeable trail.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #160057). 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.
