Details of Incident:
I noticed, directly at the midheaven, two bright lights and a swath of light out in front of the
lights. The lights and the swath were moving accross the sky under the Milky Way, and they retained
their relative positions to each other. That is, the lights lined up in the direction of travel, and
the swath out in front not quite in line with the lights, and not touching the lights. Also, as to
the quality of the lights, one of we who saw it noticed that they did not flicker as stars do, but
were brighter and had a steady light. As to the swath, it was three or more times longer than the
space between the lights and maybe a third the lights space apart in width. The slightly uneven shape
of the swath did not change in shape or quality, and the whole unit, which had no apparrent body
besides the lights themselves, moved steadily toward the horrizon. From midheaven to horizon I
estimate about three minutes. It was seen by two parties of two on the island(Madaline) at that time
and by young campers two hours away near Manitowish Waters, though the campers reports are less
specific and are second hand as told to their captain. Around 2:30--3:00 AM.
