While my son was using the binoculars to look at the moon rising in the east, I was gazing at the rest of the starry night sky when I saw two gray objects directly overhead. I said "what the hell is that?" and my son saw them, too. They were v-shaped, flying with the apex forward, in a southerly direction directly over the west side of Manhattan. There was no sound nor lights, just the two gray v's heading south over Manhattan. They were "cruising"; that is not zooming fast, nor hovering, but steadily flying south. We lost sight of them in the lights of midtown. All in all, less than two minutes of visual contact. Witness BackgroundI am a 44-year old mother of two, legal secretary in a law firm in midtown Manhattan, resident of the Upper West Side since 1990.
