Formation over Farmingdale, ME

The report, as filed

Was standing by a fire in my backyard when I noticed a star that was not only 20 times brighter than every other star, but also appear elongated like it was 2 stars next to each other. At times, I even noticed it split into multiple orbs. 3 of stood there in awe and watched it for 45 minutes to an hour as it moved side to side and forward and backward changing in brightness drastically. It's color at times appeared to be all colors, like how light can diffract into a rainbow through water. It gave us all chills as it appear to be watching us for a bit. I got a video in which side to side movement is hard to tell because of my shaky hands, but it is clear that it went from an invisible distance and came close and bright and then back to invisible distance. The movement was highly irregular which rules out any rocket based aircraft. It had an aura around it that glowed, as it had constant light emission that was very bright. After my friends went home (it was m! idnight at this point), I stayed outside and watched until after 1am and it kept leaving and coming back every few minutes the entire time. Have never felt the way this object made me feel. I even called a couple friends and multiple times I shut off my phone because I began to clearly hear interference with the call. Overall, unable to explain this activity with any modern science. Needless to say, I was, and am, SHOOK. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
