UFO Over Wainscott?

In our relentless pursuit to find all things Hamptons online, we came upon this gem from 2012.

Martha Nassauer, who shot the UFO video in Wainscott on April 7, 2012, notes the unidentified flying object “seemed to respond in its appearance after I flashed it with my LED flashlight, and changed direction.” She notes the object was originally heading from east to west, but then changed direction and headed south after it “glowed intensely” until it disappeared. “I did not change the focus or any other settings,” Nassauer writes, “as you can see the stars remain the same before, during and after the orb glowed brightly.” Strangely, the object appears to have a hole in the center, like a doughnut, which can be seen in her video.

Is this an alien spacecraft? A military test flight? Let us know!
