Full Description & Details

On the night of the sighting, my girlfriend, sister, and myself spontaneously decided to run to the store for some ice-cream. We went outside and got in our car to leave. I had already started my car when my girlfriend noticed the objects and alerted us to them. My sister and I looked out our window and saw 3 triangle shaped flying objects passing not too far above the tree level (perhaps double the tree level).

It was extraordinary enough that we were stuck there watching it. We didn't hear any engine noise so I turned off my car engine to listen more closely. However, it was silent. I rolled down my window to stick my head out and look up, as they were directly over us. After a few seconds, I got out of the car to join my girlfriend and sister who had already gotten out to see them closer. We stood in our driveway as they passed directly over us, moving very slowly. The objects were the shape of an equilateral triangle with large round lights on each of the three tips. The closeness of the objects and the light polution of the suburb allowed us to see the shape of the object beyond the illuminated tips. We could also see the center of the body of the objects and certain smaller and very dimly lit lights in the middle of them (another color, though memory fails us).

The three objects were traveling in a south-easterly direction.

They were moving very slowly. Our view would have been obstructed by forest and trees had they not flown directly over our driveway. So the only time we could see them was during that brief passing. However, even this short patch of sky took them a little over a minute to cover the distance.

After it passed, we all talked about it and were excited that we saw a UFO. However, we considered them a UFO in the true sense. An "Unidentified Flying Object" - not necessarily an extra-terrestrial object. Our talk about it has subsequently referred to them as some sort of experiental government plane.

Full Description & Details

In the western sky, a large red ball of light had appeared. It was located west of the star that rises in the southwest this time of year (the star that is first visible at dusk), but about half that star's distance from the horizon. There was a tick dark layer of moisture low in the sky, but airplanes moving west and east were visible, as well as some stars. There also was thunder and lightning, minor stuff caused by the humidity that day.

Initially, I thought it was another aiplane, a really humongous one, and pointed it out to my partner in utter amazement. We both looked at it, but it never blinked, nor did it move. We watched it for a while, and then concluded that it was just 'hanging there.' It still did not move, and I turned to him and joked that it must be a spaceship and the aliens are coming. He was still watching it, and at that same moment, he noticed that it had gone out. "Look, it just went out!" he said, and indeed, the red ball was gone. No clouds were moving by that could have obstructed it. He said that it just went out like a llightbulb.

The object was perfectly round in shape, as bright as a flood light, but more garnet in hue. Compared to an airplane's red light, it was at least ten times as large. From our perspective about 1/3 the size of a traffic light.

Other Comments

Not given to hysteria, but I thought this was quite odd. The security guard said that she had seen strange phenomena about a year ago that had been reported on Ch 16 news. She described it as 'fingers of light beams' coming down. No heat or lightning were registered at the time.

Full Description & Details

In June or July of 2002, my brother and I had our video cameras with us, as we were documenting some car restorations.

We returned home around 4:00 pm. My brother was tired from working the night before and dozed off in the living room. My mother was in the swimming pool in the backyard.

She called: “Hey!”

I said: “What?” and went to the window to see her.

She was just looking up, with a dopey expression on her face. As she looked, I realized if I crane my neck it must be just over the house. As I tried to “peak” over the house, I saw what I took to be a large bird. The camera! “Whatever it is, I got a camera” was my only thought about what this object might be. As I bolted out the door I attempted to get a good video image of what I thought was an oblong doughy object.

But the video shows a round object. My brother was in the front yard wondering what was going on and came around to the back just in time to see it depart over the trees about a quarter of a mile away.

As evidence, this footage is basically useless. I’m very disappointed that the video is completely inconclusive. There are no reference points in the frame and I was unable to hold the camera still because I was zoomed in so tightly. The object was small. Less than four feet, it seemed to me. But again, I never got a good look with my own eyes. All I was looking at was my video camera monitor.

To be rational, I call this object a balloon. Seems to me it was a mylar balloon.

But this balloon came from southwest horizon, over very close to our house, perhaps 30 or 40 feet above and disappeared to the northeast well within a minute. The balloon did not bob or dance in the air – that is the camera shaking. There was no wind. The camera mic would have picked it up. But there is none. The balloon did not go up. Or down. It was traveling, or “flying”.

The first image shows a frame from the original video.

The second is a frame magnified and brightened.

The third is a frame that has been cropped and magnified so you can see the balloon disappearing to the northwest (low right corner of frame).

I theorize it may have been towed. Upon “computer enhancement” there appears to be a line coming from the bottom of the balloon. This makes perfect sense. It was a balloon dragged by a moving vehicle. But that would mean that a vehicle would have to be going through neighborhood yards. Or that a very long tow was not getting tangled in trees and telephone wires. Perhaps the tow vehicle was in the air. This was just weird. What do you think?

Witness Background

I have been interested in ufos for over 25 yrs. This is hardly the kind of evidence I can be proud of. I do not believe this object was from outer space but I cannot begin to explain the oddness of the encounter. It was unlike any of the accounts I have familiarized my self with reading about ufos.

Full Description & Details

on a summer afternoon when i was a kid about 4 or 5 years old we lived in a row house low income housing , there were 4 home in each row. and high rise low income apartments on either end.on the north side of pittsburgh. i was playing with other kid next door, lots and lots of people were outside enjoying the afternoon when we heard adults and other kids saying look look its a spaceship , then i looked up and there it was a metalic colored disc seen from the bottom and the amazing thing is my family lived on the end and it was right above me as i stood there looking at it . it hovered silently not making any noise , at lease a couple of hundred people were all excited and calling out what is it , its a space ship , its flying saucer. i was amazed and then it started to move over our roof to the back then moved off to a play ground where there was a hill that went down over the side it lowered down as if landing and i ran around the side to see and my mother was panicing and was yelling at me to come back so i just stayed on the side looking at it from a distance and then it rose up and began to move horizonally across at the housing hieght then shot off diaginally into the sky and disappeired in a flash then i ran back to my mother and everyone was talking about it /. now the strange thing is we have liveed in michigan shortly after that and i have never seen any information on this in ufo specials or on the net. i would think a sighting like this many of the wittnesses would still be around. i have decided to write you to find out if you know of this story and if there are other witnesses out there i can make contact with . also my mother is still alive and will tell you this did happen.please let me know

Full Description & Details

A circular light emitting object approached a smoke stack from over the eastern mountain side of the Yakima Valley, at rapaid spead. Once in the South Sunneyside area the UFO stopped just north of a smoke stack that was blowing thick white smoke.

It circled then swooped once threw the smoke. While in the smoke, the UFO appeared to turn black but only momentarilly. In short order the UFO flew to another smoke stack and did the like, while there. Then again, to a third smoke stack. While the UFO was in the third billow it did not change from light to black. I do not know why. Finally, the UFO rapaidly progressed in a northeasterly direction. However I was able to get photos of the object befor it flew off. With in 30 seconds of the UFOs departure, six Appachie, Army, helocopters flew over the near mountain side, one over my home, only to pursue the UFO trailing to the point at the mountain side where the UFO had disappeared at least 30 seconds prior. I don't think f18 hornets, f4 eagles or MIGs could have caught this UFO

Full Description & Details

Unfortunately, I'm not positive on the year that I saw this UFO. I believe it was November of 2001, but it could have been 2000. I'm something of an astronomy buff, and I was out on my deck in the backyard one cold, clear night, observing the sky with a pair of binoculars. I was sitting in one of my deck chairs, looking up, when something crossed my field of vision. It was moving at a constant speed, and what struck me about it was that it was completely dark. There were no lights on it at all, and it made absolutely no sound. The object was so dark that had I not been looking in exactly the right spot at the right moment, I would have missed it. It was in the shape of a boomerang, or maybe even a triangle. I even considered for a brief second that it might be a flock of birds in a triangular flight formation. However, it looked too solid and too symmetrical to be birds. I followed the object across the sky until it disappeared behind some trees.

Unfortunately, because I was looking at this object through binoculars, it's difficult to say how big it was, how high it was flying, or how fast it was travelling, as I had no meaningful frame of reference. I'm not talking about really high-powered binoculars or anything. They're the kind that you might take to a concert or a ball game. But I can say that through the binoculars, the object filled about half of my viewing area.

I'd also like to say that I feel certain that what I saw was not natural. It was definitely intelligently designed. I'm also certain that it was not an airplane, as an airplane flying at night would have, at the very least, one red light and one green light on its wings. This object was completely dark without a single light on it. Also, a plane, whether a jet or a prop, would have made some kind of sound. This object flew by silently.

Full Description & Details

It was 1976 - 1978 (sorry for my english) I was ten or eleven years at that time. I was born in 1967. We, my cousin and I (he was five at that time, and of course he can´t remember anything) were playing in one (of three) yards in our grandparents house. It was a big colonial house. Sudenly my little cousin point his finger towards the roof, he was the first to see the object. That object was an inverted triangle of an aproximate size of two meters in the base. it was hovering silently at one meter or less of the top of the roof ( the object couldn´t be more than eigth or nine metres from us). My aunt (the mother of my cousin) was ironing some clothes directly underneath the roof and pay little attention at our callings thinking it was nothing important, just child games.

Being childs we were not scared just amazed, then I decided to go for my grand parent to show him "our discovery " he was having a shaving and reluctantly follow me ( While I pulled his arm). I was at that time just a child now, I am lawyer, but my grandfather was an astronomer, historician, a very educated person indeed. Well, the thing that I will never forget was his face expressión when he saw the object, his face went pale like he was going to faint all what he can do was to call my aunt (of course she noted the urge of his father voice and promtly came. (She was just under the roof at four or five meters from us) But all of a sudden the object practicaly "dissapear" in the sky such was the speed of his movement. The clouds were very high it was a sunny day. it was aproximatly 11:00 A.M

It was a closed subject in our house, (not for my granfather) and I remember vividly telling to other memebers of our family what we saw just to be ignored (just a child) or giving all sort of stupid explanations at the phenomenon (maybe it was helicopter some say) even being a child I recall thinking if that was an helicopter it was a very little one made no noise and move at such speed I´ve never heard of that things before. Being treated like an imaginative child in a lunch I remeber my grandfather shut everybody (he was the most respected member of our family, and he was absolutly lucid at that time) and declared that it was true what I was saying that what we saw that morning was a very unusual thing.

My gradfather died in 1980, but he died knowing that our word hides things that our "scientific" community stiil don´t know or at leat does´t want to know. I keep in silence of course being this fact known by my family an other closest ones. Still amaze me to know the kind of treatment giving at the phenomena by the scientific community.

Full Description & Details

I was visiting a friend of mine who resides on the top of the suburban area named Sky Mountain (on Cougar mountain) which overlooks Lake Samammish. It was during the moment when I was about to leave when something strange caught my eye. At frist, I wasn't sure what I was looking at. However, upon closer observation, I noticed that it was an elliptical/disk-like object skimming along the surface of the lake. At first, I thought it was barely underneath the water, however, it suddenly maneauvored to its side in a swift, graceful movement, I realized that it was directly above the lake. The object continued to skim around the lake in a wide, circular path but gradually begin to submerge underwater until only a speak of it (about half a cm) could be visible to the naked eye. At that point, I thought I was hallucinating and immediately called my friend outside, asking if she had a pair of binoculars. By then, I couldn't locate the object anymore. My friend's house is approximately two miles from the lake, and the object appeared to be2.5-3.5 inches at an initial glance until it diminished underwater.

Full Description & Details

I was with my then mother in law. I saw this huge object making its way over the roadway from the left. It was very close and i kept asking my mother in law if she sees that (i thought i was seeing things). She said yes. I remember thinking of why no one else was slowing their vehicles down or stopping. I pulled off in the middle turning lane & stopped. I cannot remember the rd name but it was the busy rd (maybe 40 something) that goes from Bristol to Fairless Hills. It was before a 4 way intersection which had a diner on the left side after the red light. We looked at this object for about 3 minutes after we stopped. It looked like it was made from heavy metal (dark colored) and had alot of windows. They were very small but they looked like windows. Absolutely no one stopped or slowed down which made me believe they did not see it for some unknown reason. It took off to the right at lightning speed. It was going toward Morisville. We could no longer see the object itself but instead saw a snake like trail. The trail was more like colorful dots & was short. We drove as fast & careful as we could to see it close again but it disappeared.

Witness Background

High School graduate, occupation is upper management. I contacted you via internet, i believe, when i lived in PA at that time. You sent me a package but a paper was missing. I was in an abusive marriage at that time and did not pursue this sighting. I contacted you as I believe I experienced an abduction which i have very clear details of to this day. I will never forget that.

Other Comments

I will attempt to retrieve my sketch from my friend. I mailed it to her because she is very much involved with UFO phenomenom. My mother in law would not back up what I saw & states that she doesnt remember seeing anything but I will swear on my children that what I saw & experienced a few days earlier was real and did happen. I would be willing to undergo hypnosis to prove this happened.
