Background

At 10:05 p.m. on January 28, 1977, students in Platteville, Wisconsin, watched an orange "fuzzy oval" object larger than a full moon. It descended from a low angle above the southern horizon into distant trees. The report appeared as case 2-3-22 in the International UFO Reporter in March 1977. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
