'Huge' disc-shaped circle of small lights, with beam of light shining down
1975 - Medina, Ohio, United States
"A bright searchlight, motionless, was suddenly upon me. I looked up to see where it was coming from, when I saw a HUGE disc-shaped circle of small lights to the right of me. It appeared to be a craft and judging from the distance and size and the many lights, big enough to accomodate 100 people (?) in my judgment. The second I made eye contact, the spotlight was gone and the craft shot up like the speed of light, soundless." View full report

Multiple witnesses observe large boomerang-shaped object over motorway
1975 - New York, United States
From the witness: "It was approximately the size of a high school football field, but not quite as wide. It had lights on each end and in the middle with blue square lights all across the back end of the wings.... We noticed that there was absolutely no sound at all and that it didn't fluctuate or "flutter" and that it just floated in the air. We saw structure, that is we saw the body of the vehicle. No rivets or seams, just the silver/grey color of the body." View full report
