Triangle over Providence, RI

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

My finace and I went out to smoke a last cigarette for the night on our front porch. While finishing up I looked up and saw a huge white glowing semi transparent rounded triangle fly at above tree level. The object was below planes' levels as there were two up high in the sky at the time I noticed. I jumped up and tried to convince my fiance to look up. He refused and told me that I looked nuts! I saw another smaller looking traingle follow after the object and was proceded by two orange/red smaller objects. At this time my fiance saw the last one and made me go inside. The first one was incredibly fast and the others were slower. This is the first time i have ever saw or reported anything like this. I reported this only because I googled this and found out that everyone else saw it too! All I can say is, "What the hell is going on?"

Providence, RI

Two big round orbs glowing orange. Just floating over federal hill district of Providence, RI. If I had to guess the objects were about 3 or 4 times the size of a normal air plane you see in the sky everyday. At this point, I’m in a bit of shock. For about a minute I’m watching these things get closer to my apartment still on the phone with my girlfriend Lyla trying to make out what these things are. Still not able to make them out I hang up the phone to go outside and record. The video I sent is from the street my back door is on. These things continued to fly/float over my apartment towards I-95n and the mall. Thirty seconds into recording, one of the glowing orbs starts to dim like a controlled light switch in your house. The other object does the same about 2 seconds after. They both dimmed to the point they became invisible in the dark night sky. I then went down the street to the closest patch of grass to throw some in the air to check wind direction. The wind was blowing southwest and these UFO’s were headed northeast. This made me think it can’t be balloons of some sort. The way it was moving seemed like it was propelled by something. Both crafts moved at the same exact speed and in synchrony. I can’t explain what I saw. I just know I’ve never seen anything like it.
