In the 57 years since, we haven’t invented silent VTOL and they sure as heck didn’t have it back then, so it’s either a weather balloon/lighter than air vehicle or a target drone that magically landed and took off again, or literally something from out of this world.

The military and police involvement certainly doesn’t fit with the idea that it was a weather balloon from Williamstown.

Back in those days, people were better at doing what they were told and keeping secrets. Whole Navy ship crews could be executed at sea and nobody would ever say a word.
