Light over Mattawan, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Bright blue green plasma, colored lights, in the sky while driving down I 94 east in between Paw paw, Michigan and Matawan Michigan. Lights were dimming then getting bright, then flickering, then getting bright then staying bright. Looked like lightning that lit the sky up longer than normal. The color of it was very odd. I’ve never seen the sky that color before and the closest thing I can compare to it is lightning, but it was way different.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #176080). 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.
