A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
There was 1 circle at the 12:11 that was shooting faster than a plane and to slow to be a shooting star and it was making perfect 90-100 degree turns then another one seemed to come at first it seemed like a new star had just appeared but 30 seconds (approximately) it started to go into the distance then turning back and then 2 more came and started flying off then I couldn't tell if a new one came or one just turned back but it flew off.

It was a decently large object of a unknown shape that was making turns of up to 100 degrees they were a off white colour. We saw them whilst we were up looking at the stars in a large field of about 4 acres.
