Unknown over Macomb, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At 1:05 I was woken by the sound of a large aircraft and the sensation of my whole home shaking. I listened as the noise came closer and then passed my house. I did not see bright lights or the craft itself, truth be told I was scared to look. The noise was peculiar to me. I live near Selfridge and I know what the big helicopters sound like. It was similar in a way but didn’t have the distinct chopping sound, more of a mechanical engine hum. It seemed to be very low and close to my house. I tried to see if my Ring camera picked it up, but there was nothing. Neighbors did not hear anything, but I am convinced in what I experienced. I’m a 35 year old with a graduate degree and a healthy dose of skepticism for this kind of thing. Whether it was government or alien produced, I don’t know. I’m just hoping that sharing this will help someone to connect the dots.

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.

Woke up around 4am to my dog growling and barking. Unusual for him. Checked Ring for people in the yard, saw no one. Noticed light in upper right corner and watched it for a while. It never moved. After 20 minutes I took the dogs out. Saw nothing with my own eyes and light was gone. Saw nothing. Wiped off my ring camera thinking maybe it was condensation. Checked it again when I went in and it was still there. Never moving. Saw arc to left of it. Live near Selfridge air base but object was still the whole time.

I was watching fireworks when I saw a strange object flying in the sky. I thought it was a drone but it was too high up. It moved up, down, and side to side really fast and had lights blinking. I saw another one fly out of it and disappear. The lights went out a few times on it. The lights started going really fast and were mainly red.

I was laying in bed at a family member’s house when I saw through the window the sky turned a bright blue, and started pulsating even like the northern lights. I thought maybe it was a cop car, but quickly noticed it was the entire sky and there were NO sirens or red lights around. It really resembled the northern lights is the best way to describe it.

On the evening of August 9, 2019, I observed a cigaresque craft travel very slowly at an extremely high altitude passing across my view of the moon. This was at approximately 9:10 p.m. The craft disappeared into the clouds after roughly 6 seconds and only a few seconds later, a commercial airliner was traveling a perpendicular path to the cigar craft at a lower altitude at regular-plane speed.

Lights first seen outside window. They looked quite close. The cigar shaped objects were glowing orange, like they were on fire, but the whole object was orangy red with no exhaust or flame trail. We went outside to see the objects which then proceeded further North, and then straight up in the sky until disapearing into outerspace. The dogs would not come outside with us, which was really strange.
