Description | On December 25, 2000 (Christmas night) four individuals in Mongmong Village, Guam, observed six spherical lights performing complex aerial maneuvers. Initially appearing as a single light, it was soon joined by five others forming a perfect circle. The lights moved in synchronized patterns, including interlocking ellipses, creating visible light trails. They eventually merged into one light before dispersing rapidly out of view at an extraordinary speed. UAPSRS ASSESSMENT: The objects the witness describes sounds most likely to have been a Christmas light display involving spotlights projected onto the cloud deck, which are controlled electronically and capable of synchronized movements. These vivid spotlight displays, which are visible in the sky from several miles away, are often mistaken for UFO sightings, especially around the holiday season. |
