A Response to a 12/6/2024 sighting in the town where I live
There's a report dated 12/6/2024 from Provincetown, Mass., Herring Cove beach. the witness shows a video that includes a flashing light in the lower right of the frame. This is Race Point Lighthouse, actually. The other lights seen are commercial aircraft in landing patterns to Logan Airport, Boston. The view is from Herring Cove beach to the west/northwest, which is the direction of Logan.
I have seen these sorts of lights many times in my 30 years here. Sometimes they appear to move fast because they're flying parallel to the beach; other times slow as they are flying directly towards the beach. In any case, they're in mostly circular patterns around Logan airport or in holding patterns. Another prominent researcher has stated similar observations about this beach viewpoint. I'm fully aware of the UAP phenomenon is real, but in this case, I believe it's just planes.
