Disk over Oxford, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
The object we observed was a disk shaped looking object with about 30 or so individual extremely bright white lights on it that did not flash . It was flying at a slight angle. It was not very high in the sky, as it moved in the sky from North West to west and was visible for about 15 to 20 seconds and than the lights just completely disappeared. The sky was clear and you could see stars and a few aircraft in the distance but they were much smaller compared to the unknown object and the aircraft had blinking lights and were higher than the unknown flying object.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #160219). 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.

There were 3 at first in a triangle formation. Each looked like candles or fireballs. They moved fairly quickly over us. No sound. Then 3 more came in a straight formation. Again moved quickly & looked like candles and were silent.
