Formation over Porirua (Titahi Bay)(New Zealand) · New Zealand
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
One light (looked like a star) - sped across the horizon, i assumed it was a shooting star which made be stand up to get a closer look as the roof edging was blocking my view. As soon as I lost sight of the first moving light it was followed by another 5 to 7 lights, which travelled in the same direction as the first. They were all in a formation (distancing between them didn't change for the few seconds I witnessed them in the sky).
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #113079). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

What would the paper say?
The NZDF released its UFO files in 2010; further records answer to the Official Information Act 1982. 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.
