Triangle over Windham, NH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was having a late night swim with my two children. It was about 9:10 when all of the sudden we seen three very bright circular lights from a distance coming towards us at a very fast speed. This was much closer than a plane would ever come and definitely not the shape or sound of any plane. It hovered diagonally above us for a quick moment then suddenly it took a sharp right turn and it was gone. As of then, we noticed that the shape was triangular. From the back, there were two lights in the back that were not as bright as the three in front. As far as I knew ufo’s were circular, this object appeared that way from the distance, from the back was when I noticed that it had a triangular shape to it. Definitely nothing we have ever seen!

For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

I believe I saw not one but 2 UFOS in the sky. When seeing them they were very slow moving and it was slower than a plane. The object was oval shaped almost like a blimp but thinner and almost flat. The lights went almost all around it. I mainly saw it on the bottom but the top ones were slightly visible. The shape was all white with lights all around it. The shape just flew in a straight line slowly. This all happened right before the sun started to set so the sky was still blue. I was able to get pictures of the objects and when I zoomed in to see them they both looked like they had some sort of landing gear on them. The each had 3 legs on them. There was also a tiny bit of aura.

I can hardly believe I am reporting another ufo sighting after nearly 2 months from the last one seen. This time I was ready, and got video footage. however what was recorded on camera was not what I was seeing. Fortunately there was one slight second I dropped the phone and got a clear image of the ufo. Both times seeing the ufo it appears from the distance a very bright moving moon or sun. The speed is slow but definitely this time was coming from a much further distance. At first sight there was no noise just a very bright light heading towards me at a somewhat slow speed. When I grabbed my phone to record it, for whatever reason it showed up as at first one circular light and as it came closer 2 intertwining light . There were a few possibly even more blinking lights. I believe red white and blue . The video footage I got with the camera can be seen showing a flash but not very detailed in its color. Here is what I captured. I managed to slow the video ! down and capture the ufo the way it actually looked from my view. However like I said the video camera picked up a totally different image.

Driving to the store, I looked out my driver side window to see an odd object with white lights flying very fast over the building. By the time I had parked the original object had disappeared and another black object began flying from the other direction toward me and the others in my car. The object flew straight over us making an almost silent hum. It then turned almost how a fighter jet would bank and quickly disappeared out of sight. When I got home I further inspected the sky from my backyard and could make out small little lights darting across the sky to a much bigger light too bright to be a star.

We were watching the fireworks over Canobie lake and my daughter noticed something in the sky. When we all looked up, there was a sphere going across the sky right above the tree line. The color was like a fire. It was moving to slow to be a meteor and to fast to be a Chinese lantern. Never seen anything like this in my life. Very strange, but cool to observe.
