Reports Report 5722nn (Event 5722-2024)

Observer
Name Kenneth H
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was looking directly east down the Chicago river to where it meets Lake Michigan. It traveled directly south and perfectly horizontal with no loss of altitude. It was lower than the skyline that lines up along the lake. It was visible where river meets lake. ( no buildings ) it was then out of sight behind the buildings south of the river. I would be certain that security cameras at Trump Tower captured it.
