Two black rectangular objects flying adjacent made their way from floating over the Long Island sound to disappearing below the tree line behind the Milstone Power Plant. It was noted that the craft were silent, had no lights, had no visible emissions, and there was no planes around these objects. They moved at a consistent rate.

Niantic, CT

Hello, Last night (12/5/2016) at 8:05 p.m., in Niantic, Connecticut, I saw a craft in the sky that maneuvered unlike anything I have seen in my 30 years of life. The aerial craft was low, flying traveling at an incredible speed. It was making an “S” shape in the sky and had a steady red light on it. It was flying from East to West. I saw a green light blink twice from it with no steady interval. I stepped out onto Main Street to fallow it. I thought about taking out my phone to capture it, but I couldn’t take my eye off of it. I was struck with fear and awe. Then it did a 180, shot back to the east, and shot straight down into the estuary several blocks away. I was not on any drugs and had only had half a beer.
