Light over Peaks Island, ME
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Initially thought to have been stars, assumed to have been at extremely high altitude. Objects then began moving very slowly SE in trailing tandem formation for approximately 15-20 seconds, first object then receded from view over 1-2 seconds as if in accelerating ascent. Second object appeared to perform same "maneuver" 1-2 seconds later.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #122281). 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.
