Circle over Williamstown, NJ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
5 orange lights following each other in a row almost like helicopters would look flying fairly low in the sky and then becoming smaller and disappeared when they were over top of us, almost as if they went straight up in the sky and were gone.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #149296). 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.

3 separate fireballs about 1 minute apart on the same flight path. No flashing lights like an airplane. All 3 disappear at the same point.

We collectively saw 3 strange multicolored objects hovering. Then one of them shot out a white light then disappeared. The second one disappeared then the third one slowly faded off into the distance. A commercial airplane in the area of the objects was lit up by the white light that shot out of the UFO, as if it was scanning the airplane. There where multiple witnesses who seen this happen. After a few minutes helicopters flew in the same direction as the objects. We where looking north-northeast.
