Three events in Plainfield, Illinois from May 30-July 30.
To Whom it May Concern: I have three incidents to report in the Plainfield/Shorewood, Illinois area. The first took place on May 30, 2020 at 6:23 p.m Central Time. I know the exact date and time because someone on a local Facebook group posted a video (link below). You can see that I commented and said, “They were balloons” because right around the same time I was walking my dog and saw a cluster of silver balloons floating. The video is NOT what I saw and is clearly NOT balloons.
Second, I do not know the exact date. It was around 8:00 pm Central Time due east in the sky at a normal airplane altitude. I saw it from my bedroom window. I noticed it because it was a very bright, white, circular or cylindrical light. At first, I thought it was Venus because the object was stationary or very slowly moving. I thought that it seemed lower than Venus’s position, but did not know what other extremely bright object would be in the night sky at that time. I kept watching while I was brushing my teeth and even called my fiance to come look. I walked back into the bathroom to finish brushing my teeth and went back to the window. The object VERY quickly shot directly towards our house, due west from it’s hovering position, and was gone. I checked my flight tracking app and there was nothing in that location.
The last event took place today, July 29, 2020 at approximately 4:25 a.m. Central Time. I was walking my dog as I normally do because I wake up very early for my job. I happened to look up because it was a very clear sky and I love to see the stars and planets. At approximately 30 degrees northeast, I saw a fast moving object. It was high in the sky, higher than I’ve ever observed an airplane, white and circular. I thought that maybe it was a satellite or shooting star. I continued watching the object and it suddenly “turned off,” or disappeared. I kept watching and the object reappeared slightly more to the east in the straight path it was traveling. Suddenly, it fully stopped and reversed it’s flight path. Then, it began moving in a slow zig-zag pattern. At this point, I had to return home so I held up my phone to take a video and my phone was spazzing on and off. Not sure why. I have never seen this happen to my phone and it was fully charged as I charged it all night lon! g.
Finally, I have noticed a large increase in planes flying over my area. One after another at times. There is an airport nearby (Joliet and Chicago), so I attributed it to that. This is just anecdotal information. I know I am not really a credible or reliable source, but I do believe that all of the incidents are unidentifiable. I hope that this helps in some way.
