Date:

October, 1989

Location:

Pickens County, South Carolina, United States

Summary:

A dark, chevron-shaped object hovering above trees on the north side of Hwy 123, between Clemson and Easley, SC. It had one red light on each end, and was totally soundless.

Date Reported:

1/15/2006 8:11:36 PM

Sighting Time: 

8:30PM

Day/Night: 

Dusk/Evening

No. of Witnesses: 

1

Duration: 

15 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The object was dark or black. It was shaped like a boomerang, and had one dim red light on each end. I could see only the outline and the lights. It seemed to be about the size of a private jet, but I cannot be absolutely sure.

Size of Object(s)

I'm not sure about relative size. I could frame the object with my hands about 16 inches apart. As stated above, it seemed to be about the size of a private jet, maybe a little larger.

Description of Area / Surroundings

A rural area. I'm not sure in mileage how far it was from the university or Easley, but I could find the exact spot again if I needed to.

Full Description & Details

I was driving home to Greenville, SC from Clemson University around 8:30 pm on a Monday or Wednesday in late September or early October of 1989. There were no other cars in sight when I saw a dark boomerang or chevron-shaped object, to my left (which I think is North), hovering above some trees. At first I thought it was a helicopter, but as I approached and saw the outline, I began to slow down. I opened the window to get a better look and to hear it. When I realized it was silent, I pulled onto the right shoulder, and started to get out of the car. I was planning to walk over to the median to get a closer look, but (this is where it gets strange) I heard a voice in my head say something like, "Don't get out of the car!" or "Keep going!" It may have been me telling myself this, that "little voice" of intuition, but I don't know. I remember it struck me as very strange at the time. Until then, I was merely curious about the object. I was trying to figure out what it was. After the warning, I became a little afraid, closed the door, put the car in drive, and took off. I watched the object in the rearview mirror as long as I could, but quickly lost sight of it. All the way home, I kept wondering if I should report it to someone like the police, but I wasn't sure which agency to contact, or if they would even believe me. When I got home, another strange thing happend. When I walked into my house, the phone started ringing. I answered the phone, saying "hello" a couple of times. Whoever it was, after a few seconds of silence, hung up. Now, the phone call could have been nothing more than a wrong number, but considering what I had just experienced, it seemed very ominous, and frightened me all over again. I felt as if I were being watched or followed. I'm willing to concede that the voice and the phone call could have been products of fear, adrenaline, or even imagination, but the object I saw that night was as real as this keyboard.

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

The only thing I can compare it to is a stealth fighter, but the object did not move or make a sound during my observation.

Witness Background

I'm a housewife. I have a BA in Geology. I worked in the environmental protection field prior to accepting my current position.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I'm sure I had seen some TV shows about UFO's prior to my sighting, but I don't remember thinking about it much at all. I was open-minded, but a little skeptical, I think. It was a long time ago.

Other Comments

Please don't put my name on the website, since my own husband thinks I'm a nut. I would not mind being contacted by a serious researcher, but no wierdos or stalkers, please.

Summary:

i was in my bedroom with my sister, and heard a deafening noise kind of like an amplified bat screech but lower and a slower frequency, and then saw in the second story window (in my room) a small creature with an open mouth, looked like rows of teeth (not sure what they were) and two beedy eyes.

Date Reported:

1/13/2006 11:54:50 PM

Comments about the image(s): "This is a quick sketch of what i remember the creature looking like.. mind you it was about 6 and a half years ago sincei saw the thing. so it may not be very accurate. but this is what i remember.."

Sighting Time: 

1:30am

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

No. of Witnesses: 

3

Duration: 

about 15 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

the being (not saying its really alien, could be a genetically engineered monkey or something) looked very thin about three feet tall, small black(i think) eyes, and open mouth, looked like rows of teeth or something in its mouth. it had what looked like holes on the front of it's head somewhat on the side. the only thing it was moving on it's body was its arm, it had two "fingers"on each hand(i think, thats what it looked like) and it looked like it had claws of some sort, or fingernails. my window was sort of dirty so the description may be a little off. it was white or grey (it was dark outside) my light was off, so i wasnt seeing a reflection in the window, i saw the creature) it was standing on its hind legs but it looked like it was supporting itself with one of it's "arms" it had 4 limbs.. looked like 2 legs and two arms. it was scratching at the window, looked like it was trying to get in. the creature appeared to have smooth skin(no hair). it's eyes appeared to be all black, with no white, and i didnt notice any eyelids or other "facial" features.

Size of Object(s)

the creature seemed to be about three feet tall, it was stanind about 2 feet away from me , right in front of my bedroom window.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

it was about 2 feet away from me maybe a little more.. i quickly moved further away.

Description of Area / Surroundings

it was in a rather suburban area, on a highway, there was a swamp behind the house, the being/creature was "standing" on my roof in front of the second story window of my bedroom.

Full Description & Details

like i said in the summary, i was in my bedroom i was 14 years old, i heard a really scary, deafening sound like an amplified bat screech, with a lower frequency. i saw this creature in my window (i was on the second story). the sound was extremely scary, it made three of us, my mother, my sister and i cry just from hearing the sound. at first we thought the creature was an owl, a screech owl or something, but then we got a closer look and jsut got scared.. im not sure if i was in shock or not and saw something that wasnt real or not...i really hope im not crazy. now today january 14, 2006 i heard the same exact noise in Clarksburg Massachusetts, usa, but i didnt see anything. all the women in the house(including me, my grandmother and a child are up.. its around the same time in the morning 1:30 am). all i can really say about the feeling, is that its eerie and scary. the sound im hearing today is further away, it sounds like its coming from the field across the street from my house.

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

i thibk it's possible that the creature i/we saw could have been a man-made, or genetically altered animal.. but it could have also ben deformed by nature

Witness Background

im 19 almost 20 years old now, i was 14 when the first "sighting" happened. im a high school drop out, i do have some mental disorders, but nothing that should give me visual or audio halucinations. just depression and anxiety issues, nothing schitzo or anything.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

i never read anything about hem except maybe fictional things.. and i was skeptical about the whole alien/ufo thing. i'm still skeptical about the whole thing, and hope what i saw was just my imagination or an animal i never heard about (unlikely)

1984

Location:

Canberra, ACT, Australia

Summary:

Woken early AM by horses and cattle behaving erratically. Looked out window to see a large very bright red donught shaped craft slipping down Barton high-way towards Canberra.

Date Reported:

1/13/2006 3:34:14 PM

Sighting Time: 

roughly 1 - 2 AM

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

No. of Witnesses: 

1

Duration: 

about 3 seconds

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The craft was; 1. Donught shaped. 2. Very bright red (like a traffic light). 3. Large with an estimated circumference of a Boeing 737. 4. The forward quarter facing my view was a deep black square. The size of which would be about the size of a single garage door. Note: Apart from the bright colour of the object and its black square, the most striking feature was the way that it moved. It appeared to slip through the air without effort and when it began its accent it did so abruptly and without effort. A convential aircraft will leave you with an impression of the forces involved in its change in trajectory, whereas this crafts flight path change was done abruptly and without sign of the effort involved in moving what appeared to have a great mass.

Size of Object(s)

Holding my hand out I guess I would need about four fingers to cover it. I estimate the object to be roughly the size of a Boeing 737 airliner.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Primarily flat rural area, at that time davoid of tree apart from a single very large gum 50m from my window. The canopy is well clear of my view of the objects path.

Full Description & Details

The only times I've heard the animals on the farm behave that way before was prior to an earth tremor some years before. We did'nt have good fencing surrounding the house and it was the horses galloping past the window whinnying, dogs barking and howling and the cows mooing, all in quick succession that had awoken me. Even with the tremor I don't recall the horses and cattle behave this way.

My bedroom window faces almost directly north and is at the end of my bed. As I neared the bed end I noticed it was a clear starry night. As I arrived at the end of the bed and could see down the length of the Barton highway to the nor/nor west and immediatly noticed a bright red object come into view at the northly end. The Barton high-way runs north to south and passes our property roughly 1 Km to the east of us. The object appearred to be approaching my position at first glance, but as it neared it was clearly following the highway towards Canberra. I judged the crafts height above ground to be at or below 1000ft and as it approach my position and just before it went beyond my window view it began an accent.

The craft was only seen for about 3 seconds as it was travelling very rapidly towards Canberra at an estimated 5 to 7 hundred knots.

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

Not a hope.

July, 1977

Location:

California, United States

Summary:

Disc-shaped object tracking the family car. It was silver with a darker, raised center and a hint of something reflective inside that.

Day/Night: 

Daytime

No. of Witnesses:

Duration: 

1-2 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Silver metallic disc flying on edge at a low rate of speed. Darkened center with a reflective "protrusion" at its horizontal axis, or "hub."

Description of Area / Surroundings

Rural desert highway.

Full Description & Details

I was 11 years old. We were driving back from our summer vacation to CA on a highway in the desert. I want to say we were still in California because I was still fresh from the trip. By this, I mean that there was none of the "road fatigue" that comes with the boredom of hours in the back seat of my grandma's car, and we were probably travelling I-10 eastbound. I can't say for sure.

What I do remember is this:

I was sitting on my knees looking out the back window of my gramma's '76 Malibu Classic. There were no cars behind us for a considerable distance; that I'm sure of. I mean, they could have been some miles back, but being a kid with a short attention span I think I would have focused on that first. Looking out the back window at our 7 o'clock position, I was transfixed by an object which reflected that day's sun. If you were to hold a thumbtack by its point with the head facing you, at arm's length; that's about how big this thing was in the sky... between that size and the size of a pencil eraser, looking at it from the end while still holding it at arm's-length. Anyway, it was a disc-- not a sphere-- on edge, TRACKING the car. It had a dark raised center which cast a conical shadow down the bottom side of the object; and inside the dark part, I remember some detail... something reflective which seemed to stick out and re-catch the sun. I watched this thing until my eyes were getting dry and I had to blink. How long I witnessed this thing, I have no idea. I mean, I was eleven years old, it was summer... I have no frame of reference, really. But, the whole episode ended when I looked away to see if there were any more in the sky. I glanced to the right, and when I looked back at where it had been, and it had vanished.

I screamed at the top of my lungs for my mom to stop the car! "I just saw a UFO!" She pulled us over and I climbed right over my little sister to get out on the shoulder of the highway, wanting to see hat I knew was there just seconds before! It was gone. I knew it but I didn't want to admit it.

Later that year, I was walking home from school and there was the old Loretto mall which was kinda on my way home, but not really... There was a Skaggs drug store there which had a toy section and a decent magazine rack. This must have been about the time Close Encounters was getting ready to come out, because there was a UFO magazine I was thumbing through. To make a long story short, I ran across this photo of what I saw magnified about 15 times. It was taken in a narrow canyon by a student, the caption said, and when he looked down to reload his camera, he looked back up and the thing disappeared, just like mine did. Ha! Cool!



Anyway, for a rendition of the object I saw, go to www.littlegreymen.net. You can see what I saw. I guess that's one advantage to being an artist. Peace.

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

I don't believe so.

Witness Background

I'm just a union ironworker with a couple years of college and a year of art school I'm also an amateur cartoonist living in the Seattle area. I want desperately to get out of construction and go back to school.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I can't vouch for anyone else. I know what I saw... NOONE is going to convince me that it wasn't there. Never. As far as my views on UFOs, I have to say that I believe. There's something deep and substantive to the phenomenon... Prior to my sighting, i didn't know JACK about UFOs. I mean, I'd heard of "flying saucers," sure, but only in the movies. Think about it--- the ones I saw in the movies up to that point were stop-acion, black and white B-movie models which moved slowly and hesitantly onscreen. NOTHING like what I saw There was no way I could have pulled what I saw out of my butt at age 11!

Location:

Walnutport , Pennsylvania, United States

Summary:

I saw a UFO around close to 5:00 pm. on Feb 6, 1996, as I was driving out of Palmerton, Pa. to get on Rt 248 to go to the south side of the mt, to Walnutport. As I got on the canterlevel, I spotted a UFO coming down very fast like it was going to crash.

Date Reported:

Sighting Time: 

5:00 P.m.

Day/Night: 

Dusk/Evening

No. of Witnesses: 

myself/alone

Duration: 

short time

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Complete round disc I saw the bottom of this UFO, at a 45 % angle as it was falling/flying at an Eastern angle,like it was out of control and not able to maintain allitude anymore. Sort of Steel grey in solid color and it was about 5:00 pm. on Feb 6,1996. It was clear in color no windows or anything else to note, no sound coming from it.

Size of Object(s)

This UFO was very low as far as I'm concerned, it was just above the blue mt ridge on the south side of the mt.- actual I would say no bigger than a foot ball field.

Description of Area / Surroundings

The area where I sighted this UFO as it was losing alltiutude, was between Palmerton norhthside of blue mt. and between Walnutport the south side of the blue mt. which is located east of Rt248. Please note this UFO saucer was seen between the two ridges of the blue mt above the river along side of the Rt 248 So it was just a short duration between the east/west split part of the mt above the river.

Full Description & Details

I saw a Round disc STEEL GREY colored, UFO, with a Bright white heat tail trailing of the end of it like heat smoke. It was coming down at an Eastern angle towards the Blue Mt. between Palmerton, Rt 248, and Walnutport. I think it crash landed on the south side of the mt before the Ski Lodge. My girlfriend that lives on the other side of the mt. told me that helicopters were flying in and out of there all night. And I took pics of the mt sometime later and you can see where the ground was all gouged out with no trees or rocks, like a trail left where it crashed landed. I did call the airport and they told me they could not give out any information on what they saw on the rador. I would say that the UFO DISC that I saw was no bigger than a foot ball field. As it was falling down like it was crippled or falling down fast from entering the atmosphere, or not able to maintain allitude anymore it looked like it was going to crash. As I saw it falling at an eastern angle towards the Blue mt. I was looking up at the bottom of this UFO Disc. NO windows or lights on the object itself, no writing or any other things noted. Just a white hot heat trailing out behind the round object like a tail. I mentioned it to my girlfriend LInda on the south side of the Blue mt where my horses were boarded, she stated she saw helicopters flying in and out of there that whole night and it was noted at the time that she said that PPL had to fly in there as well and had to fix electric high power lines out at the ski lodge, so it seems that the crash must of affected the electricity at the ski lodge somehow. I did take a few pics a few days later while standing down on the south side of walnutport looking up at the blue mt. and you can see a complete line of where something could have crashed on the upper side of the mt. Note the UFO was not flying flat out , it was tilted a bit at a 45 % tilt , hence I was looking at the bottom of the UFO as it was coming down.

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

NOPE - this was a round disc flying saucer. I am not mistaken. I clearly know all the difference shapes. I do not drink and I do not smoke and I do not take drugs and I was in clear mind and body when I saw this UFO object , I only wished I had a camera at the time.

Witness Background

I have worked atWestern Electric/ Agere, Allentown Pa. for 35 years before being forced to retire when they shut down the manufactoring plant and shipped all our jobs over seas, at present time I work at home on our horse boarding farm. and I enjoy being home and working with all the horses and people and to help our community and people and to enjoy the farm/horses.etc. I have graduated from high school in 1965 and went ot business school 1 year and also modeling school when I was a young girl.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Its not a matter of reading about them so much . It is the fact that I really always felt that there was more to our whole universe than we think. And now since I"ve seen one for my self, no one out there can tell me otherwise, EVER. I'm willing to take a lie detector test to prove that..

Other Comments

If anyone would like to communicate with me on this sighting , I'm willing to chat. Thanks.

Duration: 

20 seconds approx.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

I remember the finish having a dull look to it. Not being "bright" in color. It looked like it had been rubbed with sandpaper, to dull the finish. As best i remember, it looked like it had lines drawn, to denote sections.

Size of Object(s)

Round, approx. 60 feet across from edge to edge and about 15 feet high in the center .

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

500 to 600 feet above me.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Urban---Trees growing to the North of me, with an average height of 30 to 40 feet. No power plants or military bases close by. But---There is a lake in the area.

Full Description & Details

The object was reddish orange in color.I only got an approximate 20 second view of the UFO. Trees hampered my view, for any further check of the object. If I had not been checking the height of three pine trees, I was going to cut down, I would have not know of the object being above and to the North of me. No smoke, no sound, nothing to make me aware of it's existance. I could not believe my eyes. Something that large, moving, and not making a sound.

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

None of the above !!!!!!!!

Witness Background

I graduated from High School in 1960. Served in the Military. Retired in 2001 after working for a rail transportation company for 36 years. 28 years of that 36 as a Locomotive Engineer.

Full Description & Details

I live in Oregon. Took a trip to Phoenix to vist a friend. I drove to Reno via I5, thru Mt. Shasta, McCloud, Susanville and then Reno. From Reno down to Las Vega on Highway 95 and then on to Phoenix. I always look at how many miles to the next time and look at my watch to estimate the time of arrival at the next town. Coming back, between I believe Lathrop Wells or Beatty and Tonopah, I saw a fueling stop, which I had noticed on my way south, that I think had a cut off for Death Valley. I was going to stop and go the bathroom and get a coke and chips but a big rig was coming in the opposite direction and I went pass the stop.. Instead of making a u turn in the dark I stopped by the side of the road to relieve myself. While I was relieving myself I heard like a steady drone. I could see the fuel stop down the road. I looked up, it was a starry clear night, and I saw a huge thing going overhead, blocking my view of the stars. Must have been about two blocks long and not too high in the sky. I was shaped like I mentioned before with light flashing. It scared me and I got in my car and drove to the next town.

The next town was small, had a motel on the left side of the road and on the right side of the road there was a diner and bar. I checked into the motel and went across the road to eat something. The diner was closed so I went into the bar to get something to eat. There was a clock on the wall and I checked my watch. The clock was two hours ahead of my watch. I asked the bartender if the clock was right and he answered that it was correct. As I mentioned before, I always estimate the arrival time at the next town on my trip. Some how I had lost two hours. That frightened me and I went back to the motel and checked out and think I drove all the way to Tonopah. Next morning all the wasy to Oregon. For years after that trip I kept having dreams that I couldn't make sense of and sometimes couldn't remember afterwards.

Just below my left ear I started getting like a cyst or big black head. Every once in a while I would squeeze it and a pus would drain. Eventually when I squeezed it hard a small, really tiny, little round thing came out. It was stiff. I looked at it with a magnifying glass and it looked like it had a face. I got scared and threw it away. After that my dreams ceased and the cyst, blackhead, or what ever never came back. I don't know what I saw, but I did see it, and what I am saying is the truth. All I know is that it was huge and had a droning or humming to it. Years later I have told this to my wife and another friend but I do not think they believe me. So I do not expect you to believe me either. But it is the truth.

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

I was in the Air Force. Never seen anything like that. Huge. It was a solid looking thing and light blinking

Witness Background

High School Graduate. 12 years in the Air Force. Worked in construction. Married with sons and daughter and grandkids. Retired now

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Never really believed in them too much. But now I don't know. All I know is that I saw something and it scared me

I am not a nut or seeking pulicity and I expect you to respect that. Took me years before I told anybody of what I experienced. So do not use my name. I will deny it. But I know what I saw

Summary:

Six metal reflective spheres flying in a off-set V formation, with no lights or sound. Reflecting the moon and clouds in each, with a pinkish hue.

Sighting Time:

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

No. of Witnesses: 

2

Duration: 

5 to 8 seconds

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Each metalic sphere had no lights, nor sound. They each appeared identicle, with a dark grey or gun metal grey, and perhaps a little dark purple. My best description of texture would be what a ball of yarn looks like. Random lines jutting all directions, creating small triangular impressions that were not so much distinctive, but more visible with the reflections that were created by the moon and clouds.

Size of Object(s)

If you took a U.S.nickel, held it over your head with your arm stretched as high as you could, you would get the perfect scale for all 6 UFOs.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Besides the rural city lights, surrounding lights from neighbor's homes, on any clear night always decent stargazing darkness.

Full Description & Details

I was relaxing on my back deck, gazing at a beautiul night sky, facing North-West.

With almost spring-like weather for November, (around two weeks after 9/11), a full moon in the South-East over my right shoulder, and a large (2 mile diameter ) rounded, disc like cloud formation slowly floating by. My wife had just returned home for work, and came out back to say hello. Her first question was, "what are you doing?" Of course I showed off the brilliant looking sky. Her second question was,"what are those?" At this time she was pointing almost straight above her head, and flying right over our heads were the 6 spheres in this offset V formation. ( like what geese would do )

NOTE: THESE WERE NOT GEESE.

They were flying in a South-Eastern direction, moving too quickly to give accurate speed descriptions, and low. I jumped out of my chair and watched them fly away from us. As soon as they exited from under the cloud canopy, they seemed to disapear from view. In my opinion, only somebody directly under those clouds, looking straight up, at that exact time, would be able to see them....were we the only ones ?? My wife and I proceeded to describe to each other what we just saw, of course, each of us answering each others questions of size, shape, colors or the lack of sounds. We both acknowledged the pinkish reflection of the moon and clouds in each sphere (we could SEE the moon and cloud reflecting in each)

These were incredible machines, not birds, not stars or planets, and certainly not planes.

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

Definitely not from this world. I am an amateur stargazer with plenty of knowledge on the workings of our night sky. These were not anything human or natural.

Witness Background

Hydraulic service tech (at time of sighting) now outside sales for fuel company Part time professional musician (current)

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Have always believed in E.T.'s Have seen things a couple of times that I would have to second guess myself on, ie: reflections in the day sky or night time satillites etc. Have friends with related experiences. I am excited for myself to know....We are NOT alone. I would take a lie detector test and know I'm telling the truth. Of course now, I watch or read anything about them.

Being of sound mind...I hope, and the husband and father of good Christians. It's hard for me to connect the two together. Evolution versus Creation is the biggest arguement out there now, and if these beings were to come down today and show themselves...

well, I can't emagine the repercussions. Maybe someday....right ???

Full Description & Details

My husband was leaving for a business trip on the morning of January 6, 2006. He had gotten up at 4am and he got me up at 4:45am to help him make sure he had everything for his meeting that day. At 5am I walked him to the door to kiss him good-bye & stayed to watch him pull off the driveway to wave good-bye. Since it was still dark, I flickered the outdoor light on & off a few times as a good-bye, in case he could not see my hand waving. I then made sure the lights were all off and both doors were locked and went back to bed.

As I laid in bed about 10 minutes after he left, a very bright light flashed for a second in my bedroom. At fist I thought my husband had returned because he forgot something and the high beams from the car came in through the bedroom window (which is on the first floor). I got up quickly & ran to the window. There was no car & no sign of anyone around. I looked up to see if maybe a helicopter was above possibly looking for someone or something, and there to my left high over the tree line, I saw a red glowing oblong object moving slowly away from my area. No other lights could be seen. Just a glowing soft red to darker red, almost looks like it were pulsating. I watched it for about 3 minutes as it stopped moving & hovered in one place under the cloud line that you could see from its glowing light. I was very frightened and left the window to turn on every light in the house. I went back to the window after 5 minutes and could still see the glowing red object in the sky in the same location. I turned the TV on to see if something was going on that I should know about, but only regular news was on. No other reports of what I have just experienced. Of course. I went back to the window about 5 minutes later and the "object" was gone. I just lay in bed with my dog, a metal baseball bat and my phone praying they did not drop someone off !

Duration: 

2 minutes 30 seconds

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

From what I remember, the lights were all the same size, round, and orange. They were the same brightness, not very bright, but not dim either. I don't remember how many lights there were, but I do remember that they formed a geometrical pattern, similar to a "W" shape, and stayed symmetrical the entire time as they moved in unison from the right to the left of the sky, at a constant slow rate. When it started to fade, just the first few lights that made up the tips of the W started to fade, then disappeared. A bit later a couple more lights lower to those ones faded in unison, leaving a single, eerie orange light, which faded out as well.

Full Description & Details

At a New Years party, just after the ball dropped on television at midnight, January 1, 2006, my fiancee had made the announcement to the party to "go see the lights out in the sky", and I had taken it to mean a fireworks show so I helped round up people to see the fireworks and headed out to the front door patio. There was one show in the city that was close enough to our location to be visible in the sky, and as I was about to enter the house to round up more people to view the show, I heard my fiancee say "look, over there, do you see it?". I heard a partygoer say "what is that?", and as my eyes searched the sky in curiosity I saw it too. I viewed it for a few seconds and realized that it was something I had never seen before and didn't act like anything in the sky I had seen before, and I knew from the comments and reactions within the crowd they they were as perplexed and in awe as I was, some were just silent. I quickly went in the door to make sure there was nobody lagging inside, and noticed that there were at least eight people outside, everyone's eyes on the sky, and as the house looked empty I quickly went back outside to where I was standing to view it. A few seconds later I noticed my fiancee's sister recording it with her digital camcorder she had just received for christmas.

I later learned from an account by my fiancee, who was the one that first noticed the lights, as well as the first one to inform everyone about it (when he went around the party telling people to come outside and go see the lights in the sky, he meant it literally but as the time was right at New Years after the ball dropped I mistakenly took his saying "lights" to mean "fireworks"). He had noticed it minutes before in the car while driving on the way over to the party, and the following is his account of what transpired:

I was coming back from the store at around 11:55 and saw six orange-yellow colored lights in the sky. The lights were grouped in two perfect triangles, each light was at a corner of the triangle. The two triangles were the exact same size, side by side horizontally, and the triangle on the right was slightly lower than the one on the left. They moved at a slow constant rate towards the city, without changing shape or moving apart. They remained in the shape of perfect isosceles trangles, each light keeping the same distance from the other lights in the triangle while moving at a slow constant rate. While viewing the lights one of the triangles disappeared, the other remained for a few more minutes before disappearing as well.

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

It may have been a dud firework, if dud fireworks behave in a bizarre way and stay lit for a longer duration than usual fireworks do. New military aircraft being tested.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I've always been fascinated by UFO stories and sightings, and what I knew from them came mostly from shows on television about various sightings. I wished I would see one as I had an open mind about it but knew that there would always be a doubt in me until I saw one in the sky. I used to think it would be amazing to see one, but now after the few minutes of awe and imagination, all I have left is more questions than the answers I had before I saw it and a nagging sense of responsibility to tell people about it, and tell it as accurately and truthfully as possible not only in case it is a UFO, but also in case it isn't and can be explained, and this responsibility weighs on me.

Other Comments

Not only will I, but also my fiancee send in a drawing, so I will send a total of two drawings.

As I said before, my fiancee's sister videotaped the UFO. I will see if she still has a saved copy of it and transfer it to a computer format, and send it to the email that I sent the drawings to.
