Location: West Lafayette, IN, USA

Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Aircraft nearby

Saucer, slow speed, rotating, red blinking lights, approx. 75' diameter, 7 miles SE of Purdue Univ.

Moving at slow speed. Horizon-to-horizon in 5 minutes or less but horizon obscurred because of hills and tree. Approximately 1/2 mile from Walbash river about 7 miles southeast of Purdue University. The saucer had about 5 random blinking red lights around the perimeter and there were portals that you could almost imagine objects in back of (not operators). The craft was a metallic look to it and definitely solid. The only thing "non-solid" about it was that on the bottom it had a luminous surface that looked like dense fog of a whitish nature. I estimate it to be 200 ft high and of 75 ft diameter. It made absolutely no noise and was slowly rotating (at least the top half). I am reporting this to see if anyone else saw this UFO in the vicinity of Lafayette, Indiana on the approximate date.
