My mother lives on a saltwater pond about 1/2 mile width in East Falmouth, Massachusetts. She was awoken at 3:20 AM on 7/2/10 by a very bright ("sparkling like a diamond, but brighter," as she puts it) white star-like, radiant object hovering above the tree line across the pond from her house.
She indicates it was the size of a silver dollar if held out at arm's length, and 4 finger widths above the tree tops.
The light caused a wide V-shaped reflection on the pond as if the full moon were shining on the pond but wider.
The sky was clear. There were no noises.
The object hovered for approximately 1 minute upon which it moved approximately 1/4 mile to the left (South) and then a 90 degree angle straight vertically into the air and disappeared.
The time elapsed between the moment it started moving, turned 90 degrees vertical, and disappeared was approximately 2 seconds.
Distance was hard to deduce from our conversation and her experience but her estimates are that it was not too far beyond the trees that start 1/2 mile across the pond from her house.
I looked on google Earth and if a line was drawn from the observation point to the object a few notable landmarks fall on this line in its path disregarding the variable of distance:
1 - Sand and Gravel Pit/Mine - Lawrence-Lynch Materials Corp. is located directly on the observation line at 396 Gifford Ave, Falmouth, Massachusetts.
2 - Beebe Woods with a kettle pond directly on the observation line.
3 - Otis Air Force Base - approximately 6 miles NE of observation point, not on the observation line but interesting.
4 - A large radio tower about 1/3 of a mile south of the observation line.
