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.

Other Comments

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 ???
