Sighting Time: 6:45 PM
Day/Night: Nighttime
No. of Witnesses: 2
Duration: 30-45 seconds

Appearance / Description of Object(s):

Two large equallateral triangle objects moving in formation side by side as though they were one. They were pitch black and darker than the night sky but could have been easily missed if you were not looking at the stars last night. They were essentially cloaked from view as three lights on each triangle looked like stars that might make up a constelation. They lights pulsated which could have looked like twinkling stars. The reason we know they weren't just stars, a constellation or a satelite is that the all moved together and the two objects were solid moving against the night sky and in front of stars.

Size of Object(s):

With my fist fully extended I could not cover up one of the Triangles. They were very large objects witha diameter that appeared to be 100-200 feet longer than a 747. They were both identical in size and were flying a strange looking angle relative to one another and the direction they were moving.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude:

they were at an altitude of 500-1000 feet and flew direclty overhead.

Description of Area / Surroundings:

The weather conditions in San Francisco last night were crystal clear and ideal for sky watching. The crescent moon had also just dropped below the south western horizon about 15 minutes prior. There were no clouds, fog or wind. It was a warm day and mild evening but the tempture dropped overnight as it was clear out.

Full Description & Details:

At around 6:45PM on December 3, 2005, a friend and I were outside on our back deck looking to the crystal clear night sky facing west when we saw two large black triangle shaped objects move slowly and at a low altitude (500-1000 feet) directly over our house from the north west Mt. Davidson area to the south east. We live in San Francisco on the south east side of Mt. Davidson at the cross street of Terasita and Los Palmos in Miraloma Park. The two distinct objects that we observed were flying in side by side formation and appeared to moving as one. Both craft were perfect equilateral triangles with pulsating dim star like lights on each tip of the two triangles, six lights in total. These were most definitely two solid black large triangle shaped objects which from underneath appeared to be much darker than the night sky as they passed in front other stars in the night sky and were darker than they night sky with no moon. The objects were very well cloaked (best way to describe it) against the background of the night sky and could have easily been mistaken as constellations but they were moving slowly which is what caught our attention. The entire sighting lasted for approximately 30-45 seconds. The objects did not appear to change speed, direction or altitude and moved slowly together overhead until they dimmed out of sight near the south side San Francisco crossing over 280 onto the north west of the San Bruno mountain range. I have been an amateur astronomer for over twenty five years now and I can say with conviction that these were definitely Not planes, satellites, blimps, helicopters, the International Space Station, meteorites or fire balls. They were two solid triangle shaped objects that move in perfect formation together and made absolutely no noise as traveled directly over head. The two craft were identical in size and were significantly larger than a 747. The weather conditions in San Francisco last night crystal clear and ideal for sky watching. The crescent moon had also just dropped below the south western horizon about 15 minutes prior before we witnessed this once in a life time sighting. We were both truly shocked by what we had just seen to the extent that we felt it necessary to call into two local TV stations (CBS 5 & KGO 7) to report what we witnessed. I am in my late thirties and the other person in their earlyy 40s. We both have always been rather skeptical of alien spacecraft visiting Earth simply given the vast distances between stars and the time required to travel such a distance without bending space/time. But having just what we say with our own two eyes list night, we can now say with absolute conviction that they were highly advanced craft that ones gut feeling tells them to be 'other worldly'. Nither of us had been drinking nor were we in any other altered mental state of consciousness at the time of the sighting. If anyone else saw any strange objects lights in the Bay Area night sky last night please feel free to contact me. I consider this experience one of the most amazing events of my lifetime that I cannot refute. Weather the objects were deeply classified military X-Project space craft or Alien cannot be proven (yet) but the objects had an eerie feeling to them in the way that they moved together and at the angle the triangles were positioned in flight. The profound impact of this event will forever change how I look at humanity and that such highly advanced technology does exists regardless of its origin. I have not heard anyone else reporting what we saw last night in the media or on the internet but hopefully other people in the Bay Area witnessed the same event.

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

Witness Background:

I work for an Financial Software company n the bay area, for seven years now, as a program manager. I was a stock broker for 5 years before my current career in Software. I went to UC Davis for my undergraduate degreee and recently completed my masters in Advanced Project Management at Stanford

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting:

The profound impact of this event will forever change how I look at humanity and that such highly advanced technology does exists regardless of its origin. I do watch UFO televion shows on occasion and have searched the internet once or twice but UFO research is not a hobby or something I have much knowledge about.
