Triangle over West Springfield, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
A white triangle with different color balls of light in each corner (maybe blue pink and orange) had very thin poles connecting another triangle vertically, it seemed to be landing. I heard weird waves of sound after I couldn't see it anymore and then there were just aircraft noises.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #123539). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.

While smoking a cigarette at 3:35pm, I was gazing at the stars. Something was off moving, it was to far and blurry. Gray compared to the night sky. It travel west to east, then slightly steering northeast. No sound, no lights, no visual trail. Traveled consistently and steady. This is the second time I seen a stealth like aircraft this late at night.

I was sitting on my second floor screened-in patio, and a large , quick moving white light in the shape of a very large projected beam of light, like a flashlight, which came over my building, and into my view where it traveled about 45-50 feet. Then it just disappeared with no trace. No noises were heard, it was not a plane. The sky was very clear, as I could still see a visible bright star still in the eastern sky prior to the appearance of the UFO.

I don't know if there was sound because my radio was on and windows were up. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I was walking my dog when I saw this light in the sky. I'm a plane buff so I tend to look up at the sky. This light I spotted seemed to be making unusual movements or: corkscrew movements. I thought it may have been a trick of my viewpoint because I was walking my dog. So I stopped to get perspective. I looked for a Stobe light but didn't see one flashing. Also, didn't see any colored lights on this object. I did see a sideways sort of movement. I didn't hear any noise such as I would have expected from a prop or jet engine. I don't believe it was a satellite. I have seen satellites before and their movements are more straight lined than this objects. If it was a plane I would guess it's height at about 30 thousand feet. It was heading in an easterly direction.
