Decided to take my dog on a hike on Holt Hill reservation. Always go there for a long hike and to enjoy the view on the top of the mountain which oversees the area and one could also see Boston from it. As I walked toward the open area to look over to Boston, my dog suddenly stopped and pointed towards the open area that you can see Boston. When I looked over, I noticed what I thought was just a plane just taking off in the distance, except it was kind of bright. No noises or anything. My dog started to whine as in he wanted to go check it out running back and forth for me to move. Kept walking a little further in the trail and it started to move slower, it was a good few miles away then it deter to the east and disappeared. The object was triangular awoth lights on the bottom. It came from a wooded area in the distance. Looked up nearest airports and there were no airports near that location.

Slow flying craft at a low altitude (1000 to 2000 ft.) with three lights on each side. One light was flashing. Heading south, it flew directly overhead. The craft had a rocket engine sound as opposed to a jet engine sound.

4 reliable witnesses- My 2 parents, myself (school teacher), and my 4 year old grand-niece. Last night around 5:00 p.m. my mom discovered something in the clear bright blue sky. She told my dad and then they both called me to come outside to 'see what this strange object is'. My mom then said 'it's not a plane but we can't figure out what it is'. I went outside and it was hard to see although it did sparkle and seem to reflect either the sun or had it's own light source. We grabbed the binoculars. Looking through the binoculars I could see that it at sometimes looked just white, and at others it was like an orange fire ball. It wasn't moving quickly at all - seemingly staying in one spot for quite a while. My mom then noticed that there were two more! I was wondering if they were drones, skydivers, or something like that. At one point they looked like they were triangular in shape and a ball at others. They seemed also to be in a triangle formation- but since they were hard to see all the time we don't know if that was a pattern or not. I shot some footage with my dad's iphone- poor quality but you can see it on the iphone if someone knows how to 'zoom in' after the fact. We weren't sure how long they would be in the sky so although we wanted to look at it through a telescope we didn't want to take our eyes off it it for too long in order to track one down. In hindsight we should have called the news! Thought for SURE others would see it as well! Thought we could 'google it' the next day but there was no reports that we know of!

My daughter and I went out to check on the dogs late at night and we saw an extremely bright orange light in the shape a prism. It was so bright it was actually hard to look at. It was behind the trees, it dipped down and then took off above us. We had a clear of view of as it flew over. It had two smaller blinking white lights on the sides, the orange light was not blinking. It was moving faster then the speed of sound because we heard it after it passed and could still hear it when it was out of view. It sounded like a regular plane.

I witnessed a triangular shaped craft flying slightly west of Tucson AZ. This craft appeared above a large military jet, the size of a C-130 transport. The smaller triangular shaped craft didn't attract my attention until I noticed the speed and flight pattern it was flying, and then grabbed my eye. The speed at which this craft traveled gave my a wierd feeling, like I was watching a cartoon. It followed a corkscrew pattern with a few slight deviations. It also appeared like it was making a flight pattern similar to a radical roller coaster with the upward corkscrew at tremendous speed, ending with a vertical burst of speed through the clouds leaving my field of vision. Was this a newer fighter jet like the F22.? This event left a lasting impression on me. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

My son and I had just gone to bed. As we were getting ready to sleep, we heard a loud noise coming over the hill. We live in the desert on the edge of the military air space for Nellis Air Force out of Vegas, so we get a lot of jets flying over head. When they do fly over they are gone before you ever hear them; so unless there is more than one you never see the jet that you just heard. That night as we lay in bed we could hear a loud engine noise coming towards us from over the mountain to the south. I sat up to look out the east facing window above my bed as a perfect triangle craft came into view. It was slightly banked (bottom facing us) heading N/NW. It was small and if not for the direction it was going you couldn't tell which was the front. The ends each had a light, front/green, two back/yellow, top w/ antenna/flashing red. We could see the top just enough to see the light and antenna until it went out of sight. The craft could be heard for only briefly once it was out of view. The noise was not a regular sounding engine. It was more smooth and was like a loud humming. We could hear it for about 5 sec. before it was visible. It moved rather slowly. It was visible for about 10 seconds after it came over the south hill and before it passed over the north hill (approx. 300ft.). I am a 45 year old educated (13+years of schooling) stay at home mom, and my son is 11. We see all kinds of lights but rarely are they close enough to see what kind craft they are on. This triangle was only about 200ft above the ground (very low, barley above the mountains of our canyon). There was not enough light to see a color, but it was low and slow. I have seen pictures of other triangle crafts, but they are bigger than this, and usually have a light in the middle, this diid not and was small in comparison. I would love to speak to you about all I've seen and this event, but you'll have to leave a message as my phone does not work in the canyon I live in. I will promptly call you back next time I'm in town.

Slow moving silent propulsion triangular shaped aircraft.

We saw a triangular shaped aircraft. It had three lights on each side of the leading edge of the aircraft. I think the altitude was less than 300 feet. The aircraft seemed to be 100 to 150 feet across. It was flying slow, probably less than 100 miles per hour. It was completely silent. We were camping on Marsh Miller lake and the aircraft was heading north. The shape was very distinct in the star filled night sky. My friend and I we're extremely interested in it and watched it fly out of sight. I have seen many aircraft while serving in the US Air Force but nothing like this. It was definitely an experimental silent propulsion aircraft.

saw two brilliant orange lights that seemed to be moving together , then noticed a third light that made the triangle. I had earlier thought what a great night to see stars , not a cloud in the sky , but realized no stars within the lights . it moved slowly to the east and as it moved stars would show up , I couldn't see an object but something was between those lights! Gone in less than a minute. Can't begin to think how big this must have been. wish my brain would stop thinking about it and let me sleep.

Traveling along Interstate 270 I saw a low flying triangular aircraft. It had a strange pattern of lights with large white circles and red flashing lights. It could have been a plane landing but I don't think I was near Boeing or the Airport. Just seemed strange and quiet. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

First one appeared slowly as a moving triangle. Traveling south to north. Appeared to be moving upward and the lights were a constant glow. Then suddenly disappeared. The second one took the same path. No sound whatsoever. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I went outside before retiring for the night as I usually do to look at the stars. It was clear, no moon, no wind. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a bright object. When I looked at it, it was something I had never seen before. At first I thought it was a big meteor entering the atmosphere, but as I looked, it appeared to be about 500 feet up, and about 1/2 mile away, and about the size of a small business jet. It had a brilliant white ball of light at the front, and a 3 or 4 panel-like "tail" sections attached to it. The sections were distinct from each other, they were iridescent radiant colors in red, green, and blue and were roughly 6 times the length of the "head". It traveled smoothly from south to north, silent, and very steady. It looked very similar in shape to the Teston (Kent), UK/England, sighting of Saturday, August 13, 2016. I am an amateur astronomer, can identify most aircraft, and can tell the difference between n! atural occurring phenomena and a solid object. It was truly something like I have never seen before. It was awesome!

Grouped multicolor lights, kind of in the shape oh a Hershey kiss, zipping in random directions, in the northwestern sky. It doesn't seem to be going in any set direction. My father saw it when he went to see if we could see the northern lights tonight. We watched it for at least a half an hour. It stayed in the same general area. Very rapid movement. Stars?? PD
