Circle over Lincoln, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was driving with my daughter on Route 2 going towards Boston around 6:30 PM. We had just passed Bedford Road traffic light in Lincoln. Both of us saw a ball of yellow light moving very rapidly from our right to left. The speed of this object was much faster than a jet plane and slower than meteorite. The object was not at the usual height where airplane flies but at much lower level. We saw the object for about 3 seconds and then the light just went off.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #152410). 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.

Took out my phone to take a video and they stopped. Over the sky toward Boston MA. Fuzzy oval white lights. Possibly advertising lights? PD
