Date:

June, 2006

Location:

Garland, Texas, United States

Summary:

Two of us saw a triangular "craft" in the air at around 3am on our way home from a friends' house. There was a light at each point and a flashing red in the middle. It hovered over a residential area for at least 2 minutes before slowly gliding away. I say "gliding" because I rolled my window down expecting to hear the jet engines but there was not a sound coming from it.

Date Reported:

6/14/2006 6:34:17 PM

Sighting Time: 

0300am

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

No. of Witnesses: 

2+ another car

Duration: 

5 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

It was a dark color either black or dark dark blue hard to tell because of the street lights. It was shaped like a triangle but it looked like it had a cockpit or something on top. It was a flat color and not shiny. There was a light at each corner and a flashing one in the middle.

Size of Object(s)

A little larger than a rooftop?

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

I would guess about 2 stories so 200 - 300 ft above the ground.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Suburban residential neighborhood. Nearest military base is in Fort Worth.

Full Description & Details

My sister and I were on our way home from a friend's house. We saw a triangular craft in the air above the houses next to the Tom Thumb on Arapaho and Shiloh in Garland, Texas. We couldn't figure out why it was hovering because we never new a plane, jet or other that could or would hover over a residential area of all places. It had 3 white (or red) lights at each corner and a red (or white)flashing. I can't recall which color was flashing. I just remember that someone told me that all aircraft must have a flashing light when it's in the air or something. So I figured it was a military aircraft. Anyways, as we drove by, it slowly (and I do mean slowly) moved Southwesternly. Also, when we drove by it I rolled my window down expecting to hear the jet engines or some kind of noise, but we heard nothing. It was about the size of large jet plane from our proximity. I don't know measurements, but I do know that jet planes don't get that close to houses in the middle of the night.

We figured it must be a military aircraft of some sort. So we asked an Air Force friend of the family and he had never heard of an aircraft that hovered. He said it was probably a helicopter, but it definitely was not. We come from a military family and we're very familiar with the types of aircraft in the sky. This was not a balloon, helicopter or other hovering mobile. It was plane-like but it moved so slowly after hovering for such a long time. Very strange....

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

It may have been a man-made aircraft but like I did as an Air Force pilot and he did not know of anything like it.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Don't know what to think. I assume it's a military aircraft. However, I have had two other strange "sightings". The next most recent was in Seattle and my friend and I saw a strange bright light zoom over the highway we were on and then zoom away. (It was near Boeing field on I5.) The other sighting was while I was by myself and inside of clouds. I can't account for that one, because it was probably an airline the lights were awfully large for an airline. Again, my father flew helicopters and airplanes and we've seen and heard all sorts of aircraft.

It was on the 4th of July and it was about 4:30p.m. when my friend Chris,his sister Amanda and I were just hanging out on his front porch.When I was about to ask him about our homework I heard a sound I looked up and saw a triangular shaped UFO.It must have been around 50-70 feet above us.When he looked up and saw it he couldn't believe it.So just for laughs he took a soda can and lit a bottle rocket and it shot off towards it.When the bottle rocket exploded the "UFO" shot off and dissapered.

The previous year the same thing happened but it was around Mid-night and he didn't light a rocket.We really didn't see it but it was a yellow,green,blue lights in the sky.We thought it might have been a plane because the way it was flying.But it just stopped in mid air and came down and then came back up and just flew right out of there.

Size of Object(s)

if venus' illumination was measured to be a 5, the light i saw was 10 at first, 50 or more at it's brightest, then it disappeared.

Description of Area / Surroundings

urban setting, airport nearby, way past dusk.

Full Description & Details

at about 11:58 pm central, a very bright light attracted my eye to the sky a little to the west. the brightness and size of the light was steady while moving due north for just a moment. i watched to see it gradually increase in brightness; far brighter than any star i have ever seen. as it moved slowly to the north, it faded away.

i would have guessed it was a meteorite, but it moved too slowly and it would have had to be coming almost directly down instead of across the sky. also, of the meteorites i have seen that are as bright as this light have had erratic movement and illumination as they burn and/or they break into many peices as it burns.

finally, the quality of the light appeared manufactured and gave me the distinct feeling i had just been scanned along with all of north america.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

sure, see above. you guys tell me if the sun can reflect off of a satillite, especially as bright as it was!

i believe there are many planets in the universe that have intelligent life. i have no idea whether other beings have the technology to visit us, or if we are being watched (other than by our own government... ;) ...).

it was approximately 500 ft high speed was app 30 - 40 mph

Description of Area / Surroundings

in town of Florence,SC - residential area Air Force base about 40 miles West Was travelling toward the coast which is about 65 miles away

Full Description & Details

My sighting occurred in the fall of 1971 in Florence, SC. Around dusk one evening I went out to the backyard and as soon as I went out I noticed something dark overhead. I looked up and saw it up close and personal! The largest object I had ever seen in the sky in my entire life. A large, black triangular craft was passing directly overhead. The first thing that I noticed about it was the size and how low it was. It had to be about 300 ft across from tip to tip and about half that distance from front tip to the rear. It was perfectly silent and I couldn't hear any sound at all coming from it. It was awesome! It was also moving very slowly and I remembered thinking that it moved too slow to remain air born for its size. There were lights on the bottom of various colors - yellow, blue, orange, red. I don't remember the order of the colors but they were dimly lit and were evenly spaced from one wing tip to the other. It was approximately 500 feet high and the width of it would be about 2.5 feet at arms length. I saw no markings of any kind or any other lights other than the colored lights on the bottom. I saw no visual evidence of an engine or any engine exhaust. As I stated earlier it was completely silent. I watched it until it traveled (east) out of sight. Just as it got out of my sight 4 fighter jets came screaming over going in the same path as the UFO. There is an Air Force base (Shaw AFB) about 40 miles away and I assume they came from there. I never heard anything on the news about a UFO sighting and I didn't report it to the Air Force because my parents said we weren't going to be laughed at by the neighbors for reporting a UFO. I did see this object and I know it was a vehicle and not a cloud or swamp gas or the planet Venus. I was confused at the time because I had never heard of triangular shaped UFOs, I thought all UFOs were saucer or cigar shaped. Since then I have heard of the black triangular UFOs in the 90s, and the one seen in Arizona in 1997 seems very similar to what I saw.

no way - it was nothing from this world.

Witness Background

I am a Computer Technician; I have college degree. I also have electronics training and work experience. I primarily work in manufacturing environments. I recently worked in a research and developent lab for a major appliance manufacturer for 12 years.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I believe they exist obviously, but I'm not convinced as others are that they come from outer space. Before my sighting I was not a believer nor a dis-believer in UFOs. I had heard of them of course but I just didn't know if I believed in them or not. Now I do. I had read some things in those grocery store tabloids but the photos in those papers looked fake to me so I wasn't sure they were true. I was raised in a religious family where things like UFOs just did not fit in to our faith. Now I know that they exist but I don't know who or what is piloting them. I hope the government will release the truth about them one day.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

About 8-13 Vs, each V 7-10" thick, tapering to the tips, Pewter & Bronze or Brass ish color. only 1 tiny red light, underneath a random V wing

Size of Object(s)

Size; morphing, different sizes @ different times, started @ 8-13 objects, 7-10" thick & 1' 6" tall @ wing, to unknown size, morphed to very large size, if I had to guess, the strand of V's would've been 60-70' long, I dont know how big that makes each V

Description of Area / Surroundings

Suburban, nothing around, lots of trees, cemetary, churches, highway, came out of cemetary, it went toward neighborhoods & woods

Full Description & Details

It was day light, partly-cloudy, about 5:ish. I was driving, (southbound 249), passing the cemetary on the right, (the trees are very tall here), near the end of the cemetary yard, out of the tops of the trees, comes the V's...They appear in a V-formation, like a flock of birds (geese, more specifially), their formation moves fluidly, enjulating, like birds do... They moved across the divided highway from, tree-tops in the west, to the southeast sky. As it moved the Vs look like they're switching places, but they're just morphing or something, because they were never separated, that is, their wing-like tips looked like they were always touching...

They were metalic Vs, pewter & bronze looks, each V being about the size of a goose, but as it moved away, it seemed to stay the same size...There was no noise, only one ramdom small red light flicker as it left.

Im driving, thinking, did anyone else see? So, Im looking all around, people everywhere, noone else was looking at it...Dont know if anyone else saw?
