NUFORC Sighting 52782

Occurred: 2006-10-03 03:30 Local
Reported: 2006-10-04 17:36 Pacific
Duration: 45 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Braintree, MA, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Emitted other objects

We witnessed blinking lights that moved rapidly in all directs and that, once "still", emitted sparks.

On this very clear early morning, I looked out of my bathroom window after seeing a bright twinkling light in the southeast sky. I thought it was a bright star because it looked very far away and it was twinkling. It must have been far out over the Atlantic, and high enough to be in orbit. However, the object drifted, and then immediately corrected its position by moving very rapidly in horizontal, vertical, and diagonal fashion. It did this several times, at times getting much brighter. Then there appeared to be sparks flashing around/emitting from it in different spaces and at irregular intervals. It made no noise at all at any time. I woke my wife (who at first thought I was crazy) and she came outside with me to watch. She noticed three other objects (one each to our northeast, southwest, and another in the southeast) that were similar and behaved in similar ways, but that were not as bright. We watched the objects for 45 minutes and tried to video-tape the brightest one. It looks like a star on the tape, however. We went back inside and re-awoke at 5:00AM (about 45 minutes later while it was still dark out) to find the objects gone. We have never witnessed anything like this before. These objects definitely weren't known aircraft, satelites, or heavenly bodies. The experience was quite extrordinary.
