Chevron over Townsend, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Got up to go to the bathroom at 3:26 am, looked out window onto back yard, which backs up to the wetlands, saw a craft above the tree line moving slowly but steadily, it was shaped like a triangular chevron, thought to myself is that a stealth fighter? It had a white flash light on front center tip and three flashing red lights on the left right and pointed rear of the craft, did not make a sound. Slowly dipped down behind the treeline. What was it?
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #119742). 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.

A small circular light traveling through the sky was seen by 2 witnesses and captured on video. The light was followed by a large exhaust type trail that was also illuminated. The trail remained in the sky, in the exact shape of the light, for about a minute. The wide trail eventually disappeared, but using the zoom on the video, the original small light can be seen traveling along.
