Sphere over North Adams, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
It was right before we went to bed. My girlfriend called me outside with a panic in her voice. I said, "Oh, no, not again". It was true! There were 5 flying objects in the open sky that were very bright red/yellow flickkering lights. Each one hoovered over each other in a circled pattern. As we watched in shock we watch one by one craft disappear instantly. There was NO trail of lights like you see as if it were an airplane or helicopter. After they floated in the sky the crafts disappear one by one. Leaving NO trace. I am convinced these were UFO's. We are not alone.............that i know after last night. I was amazed and called to tell my mother who has always believed. It was the most exciting thing I have ever witnessed.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #111774). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

Circular object moving back and forth across sky at times hovering. Flying low in high winds. Lights all around change colors from red, green, blue, white. At times was loud than would go silent.

I was looking at the spot, I thought thats a brite light the brite light was stationary west south west of my home, North Adams, Massachusetts. Okay i am looking at the brite object in one moment the light ball as it looked to me. At in about 1/4 of a second seemed to move vertical just a hair I saw the light move it seemed to me to move a bit then it was gone strait up gone upward at flash speed off the map away toward space. What could it be led light, maybe the International space station, maybe extraterestial spacecraft. Your Truly

((ADDENDA FROM SOURCE OF REPORT)) 1. The date of the sighting was the third. I apologize for the typo. 2. As for an illustration, I will email it to you shortly. I am hoping to go back to where I saw the craft(s) on Friday night to see if I can get a photograph of the craft(s). 3. This is a rough illustration of what I saw. Each orb emitted bright light.
