Other over Chestnut Hill, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At about 11:00 pm on December 17th, I looked up in the sky and saw a reddish bright light UFO traveling in the sky in a southeast direction from Brookline towards the south of Boston. I took pictures of the object and the object appears whitish in the pictures with two other objects in the background, perhaps asteroids. This object was traveling across the sky, not falling from the sky. The witness forwarded three photos to NUFORC, and each of them shows one lone orange-colored light in the distance. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #116134). 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.
