no mystery, Illinois has all but decriminalized marijuana in this state, everyone’s walking around stoned...
A lot of people are still active and driving around at 9:30 PM. Seems a little early in the evening to be risking exposure of an experiment aircraft.
I live in northwestern Illinois a d saw two stealth aircraft fly over for the first time last week.
A C-5 or B-2 flying at night can look a lot like a flying triangle due to the configuration of the lights. It’s around Scott AFB and the pilots might have been shooting an approach to keep their night-flying quals up to date.
Also, the 200 foot estimate on the altitude is a pretty shaky. It’s very difficult to judge the altitude of an object during the day, especially if you don’t know how big it is. It’s impossible to do at night without equipment or some type of reference points.
I’m not saying that this isn’t a valid UFO or stealth aircraft sighting. I’m just saying that they would need to rule out the more mundane things first.

One is exactly what it states. A flying object that has not yet been identified. The other is idiocy.
Testing secret stealth aircraft over populated areas. . .yup. . .sounds like a plan to me. . .after all, with all the restricted airspace over Nevada and Groom Lake, and no population centers, makes no sense to test there. . .better test in IL.
A Polaroid camera in 2000? Can you still get film for those things?
It’s all a publicity stunt by Doritos. ;-)
