The report, as filed
I thought it was the moon at first but realized it was not. I just stared, it didn't appear to move just a steady light. My father was awake at the same time and snapped the photo. [NUFORC annotation: Camera Anomaly - Possible]

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.

Looking up I saw a star moving slowly across the sky. When that star reached another they both moved off side by side in a north east direction. Before they were out of sight another one went South west to north east. I entered the house and convinced my daughter and two grand daughters to come out. We witnessed 3 more white stars go South west to north east. And two more west to east. One changed direction to the north east from the easterly direction. The clouds started to cover the area until the sky was obscured. They all were white in color and non flashing. Far too high for a conventional aircraft. The lights from aircraft are much larger and aircraft can be heard long after being seen. These stars were silent. There was no visible trail. Much dimmer than the north star but about the same size when directly overhead.

It was 20:25 on March 30,2021. I was drawn to go out side for some reason. So I went to get my coat and gloves. It was a clear cool night. I took a seat on my deck to enjoy the stars for a few minutes. A bright light, larger than the biggest star in the sky, made one slow flash to the right of the sky. Then 2 minutes later, on the left side of the sky, a smaller light went from right to left and then disappeared, as if it was going around a round object. It happened several times, in the same spot without moving, over and over, round and round. I text my son to come see but he didn’t get the text until it was gone. This light show continued so I took a video of it. The rest of the night sky was bright with stars across the entire sky except in this one area, like a dark mass was covering it. Small static lights flickered over this dark area as well. And then it just stopped after 5 minutes, as if it just left. No noise, just gone. The stars came back in th! at area and I went inside.

Laying in bed I saw through my window a strange blue white light almost silver shoot up from the trees over upper mill pond . I saw it do a loop and the split into two distinct points of light which flew off in separate directions. I grew up on Otis Air Force base I have seen flares and jets and planes and helicopters all manner of flying craft. Never seen anything like this. Besides the loop which I cannot explain it almost looked like a meteor when it split, except shooting upwards instead of downwards. It was in the sky so long I yelled “ holy sh*t holy sh*t hooooooly SH*T?! What is that!!” It looped and split and flew off out of view And i ran outside hoping to see more. But sadly that’s all I saw

First hovering north west Cape Cod Bay. Moving away from each other in consistent high speed. Hovering. Next, light shines bright from both of them as third orb appeared and the original two switched places with each other. Third orb hovering very high above started a light pattern at each point of triangle. Red, blue, and orange. Then original 2 craft started to flash the same light frequency and pattern. They all shined a bright orange in unison heavily illuminating the surrounding clouds before moving in sync out of sight to the north east. This is the 3rd time I have witnessed this occurrence in past two weeks.
