Circle over Southampton, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw a BRIGHT, gold, star looking object hovering above the trees. Assumed it was a bright star. Starred at it for 5 minutes. Then it moved up into the air quickly, and started flying away fast. Then a second one appeared and hovered above the same tree. Shot up and flew after the first. This happened a few times. In total 5 objects. Assumed they were planes and wondered why there was so many. Ran to back of the house and looked closely, only saw the last object which appeared round. Red and gold flashing lights all over the bottom which is how I could tell it was round. Vanished in the clouds.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #120571). 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.

At around 11:15p.m. this orange ball came from the corner of our home moving very slowly, with no noise. (This was not a helicopter). Looking from our deck if you were to hold a dime to the object, that would be the size of it. It moved to a point and began to come closer to the deck. It then stopped in mid-air. It did not move for approximately 30 seconds and it then receeded backwards, getting smaller as it moved and vanished. It did not disappear into a cloud, it simply got smaller in size and disappeared. There were no flashing lights on this object. This was just a steady orange glow, in a very steady line. This said, my daughter, ninety minutes earlier, saw the same thing at the location she was in, in the same town, and it did exactly the same thing. Thank you very much for your time. Hopefully, someone else saw it too. Very Cool. I do not believe weather balloons move in this manner. This was something very odd. Please let me know, if someone other than my family member saw this.

Saw large bright light falling toward sky. The light then stopped and hovered for a moment and then started ascending. We followed the source of the light and saw it begin to make erratic movements in the sky. We turned around onto another street going the opposite way, and the object turned around and came towards us and was closer to the ground at this point. When I saw it pass over us it was a large triangle, with blinking lights on each point of the triangle. It then shot off into the sky in an instant with no warning. This is my third UFO sighting and all have been in Southampton.

While taking in a dip in the pool with two others, I noticed this blackened object just beneath the cloud ceiling. Traveling completely slient, the object moved eastward and appeared to maintain a constant fast speed across the sky, while tumbling end over end. I reached out to my friends to observe this object. Each of us were stumped, for it did not resemble any object we have ever seen.
