Rectangle over North Brookfield, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Leaving my house to go to the store, we pass by an old farm field. While talking with my son, I'm looking west out drivers side window. I see lots of planes flying high in the sky. Another object catches my eye. A flat long rectangular shaped craft with multiple lights side by side flying in a level plane at about 1-1.5K. The objects seems to be less than 2 miles from where we are. Moving slowly from west to east. I ask my son what he sees? I stopped the car and both of us got out to see what type of craft. I turned off the car to listen, no noise. We watched as the object started to take a more south east trajectory and it seemed as thou the object started to climb in elevation. What ever it was, as the elevation rose, the lights on it seemed to be getting dimmer the higher it got. The lights seems to go out as if passing through clouds, but no clouds in the sky. Clear night. From my stand point, the 1/2 moon was in the southern sky and as planes had flown through the moon light, you could see the siloghett of the plane. This object as it flew through the mooon light could not be seen.

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.

North Brookfield, MA
I was driving with my friends on a back road in North Brookfield, MA, when I happened to look out the driver side back seat window to see a green oval that was moving not as fast as a shooting star but faster than a normal plane, it was bigger than a plane and left a green streak in the sky. I never believed in this type of stuff before this, I have never seen anything close to this. It kept on flying, even after I drove past I told my friends to turn around but when we went back it was gone.

Noticed 2 orange lights in sky moving southeast. Then noticed 3 more lights join the 2. Then they ascended straight up into the sky and disappeared. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
