Light over Yarmouth, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Sitting on deck, looked up at stars and noticed a very bright light that was wiggling, we were looking toward the Nantucket Sound, two others to the right but appeared to be at higher elevation, got telescope and the bright light wiggled like an insect, adjusted lens and could see lesser lights moving along perimeter of object with the central bright light remaining constant. Not a plane as we could see them pass with their red lights and then the jet roar after. These objects did not move or appear to track.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #141796). 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.

I witnessed a huge ball of light at the Bass River Bridge. Looked like a large ball of light moving in an upward direction.
