Sphere over Cadillac, MI

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

The report, as filed

Driving through Cadillac Michigan, I witnessed an orb in the sky above lake Mitchell and lake Cadillac. Once I told the driver of my sighting we both turned back to the sky and there was another orb next to it. They were traveling at a rate of speed that is faster than a plane but slow enough for us to see that they were two circular orbs in a orangeish color. The two orbs moved east for a while until they were no longer in our view. We did not see them again.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #173808). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

Cadillac, MI

craft hovered in the sky, hard to make clear of the shape because it was dark, though I think triangular. Had lights like a vehicle's headlights and a dim orange light on the side. May have been pyramid-shaped. We watched as it hovered, after about 20 seconds it completely vanished out of nowhere.
