Background
At 8:00 p.m. on 2 October 1973, a man driving on Bypass 28 in Derry, New Hampshire, saw a bright object hovering over Rainbow Lake. He went in for a closer look and then heard something crash into the water. Other witnesses saw two small whitish objects descend toward the lake; only one entered it, while the other soared upward and was gone. The local fire rescue squad searched the lake for two hours but found no trace of anything. The case was covered by the Manchester Union-Leader and the Derry News in October 1973 and is listed by Carl Feindt (waterufo.net) and in Dolan's work on USOs. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
