I dropped my daughter off at school ( Votech high school) then turned around to go home on Rues lane, looked up in my car window and saw a black object in the sky standing still. I wanted to pull over to the side to take a picture of it with my cell phone but the object turned white and got smaller and out of sight. It was a clear day with no clouds. The whole thing happened in less than a minute. I'm not sure how long it's been there. This was amazing!

I was driving East bound of Cranbury Road East Brunswick on Sunday of Sept. 25, 2016. I have noticed that shiny oval shape object was flying toward left. At the same time there were commercial planes in the sky and I definitely can tell the difference between UFO from the planes. After about 10 seconds it disappeared...just like that. I was projecting the path and try to follow thinking it went behind the cloud but... It just disappeared... no cloud either.

Objects came out from behind cloud on the right and moved across the sky changing there positions. The total time the object was visible (1 min 25 sec), before they disappeared into another cloud on the left, and I did not see them any more. I could tell the objects were not Geese since I did not see any flapping wings, or long necks. The bodies were just like any normal plane, but they did not move like a plane. They were much faster and could move with ease into the various patterns. I do not know if there was an air show and if these were some sort of a team of professional fliers that perform like the Blue Angles or Thunderbirds.
