Cross over New Boston, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Object was a small white object shaped like a bird circling in small tight circles just to the north about 8-10 times overhead then made 1 large circle then at a high rate of speed it sped off to the west extremely faster than a bird could fly. There was never a flapping of wings, the object was out of sight faster that we could get binoculars.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #175511). 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.
