Summary

A witness in Ann Arbor, Michigan, reported a round, silver and gold object measuring 6 to 8 inches in diameter. The object appeared at dawn, around 5 a.m., and was visible for 5 seconds. It moved rapidly from northwest to southeast, reflecting light like a low moon. Due to its speed and trajectory, investigators classified it as a meteor. However, the testimony suggests the object did not behave like a typical one, leaving open the possibility of something unusual.

The report includes detailed weather data and precise coordinates. Although considered a meteor observation, the testimony notes the object appeared to be made of white metal. No photos or radar data were involved, limiting analysis. The case was archived without a definitive conclusion, but with a note about the possibility of it being a satellite like Sputnik.
