Adelaide (Australia) · Australia
North Haven, South Australia. At 2145 I was sitting in my backyard outdoor spa looking at the stars, when I observed what initially looked like a formation of three triangular aircraft in a pyramid shape fly directly overhead. I had a limited field of view due to the design of my house but the aircraft took five to eight seconds to transit across it and out of sight. My initial impression of the formation was that it was three Super Hornets travelling to local Airforce Base, but it was immediately apparent that they were the wrong shape and were travelling way too fast for aircraft at altitude. I then presumed that they were three large birds flying in a chevron formation, but the leading and trailing edges of the triangles were straight lines with smooth edges. No flapping or noise was observed. My final impression was that I was looking at three equally sized equilateral dark coloured (or black) triangles flying in a pyramid formation with their tips almost touching, or that it was one larger dark coloured triangle with a triangular center section cut from it. I could clearly see the night sky through the triangular hole in the middle of the aircraft/formation. No lights were visible on the aircraft and there was no reflections or glare from any of the surfaces. The aircraft travelled directly over me so I only saw it from underneath and I could not tell if it was medium sized and low to the ground, or very large and high. My gut feeling was that it was 150 –300ft from the ground but I can’t really base that on anything more than how it appeared to me. The craft/formation was probably twice the size of a full moon. The aircraft tracked from South to North. I tried to get out of the spa and continue to observe it but I broke contact and failed to regain it. I suggest it may have been blocked from view by my neighbour’s house which is why I presume it was flying lower to the ground rather than at altitude. There was absolutely no noise associated with the aircraft which was probably the thing that most struck me as strange. It literally glided past in silence in a dead straight line, directly above me. I called the Port Adelaide Police Station approximately 1 hour after the event and asked if any strange aircraft or flying triangles had been seen or reported during the evening. Nothing had been reported. Ambient Conditions: Wind: 0-3kts Temperature: 21c Cloud: 0/8 (clear sky to the horizon) Moon: Waning Crescent (half-moon) Ambient Noise: Low. No traffic or neighbourhood noise present. Visibility: Excellent. Minimal star twinkle and moonlight almost good enough to read by.

Plymouth Meeting, PA
On the night of March 15th, I was smoking a cigarette outside of my bathroom window and, as usual, was looking up at the sky. At this exact moment, I was looking up at Orion, and picked up out of the corner of my eye an object, which moving from a Southern direction towards the North. The object made absolutely no sound, had absolutely no lights, and I think the only reason I saw it was I was already looking towards that direction, or I never would have known.. This happened just about 15-20 min ago and I'm still shaking a bit, not scared, but very convinced I saw SOMETHING. In fact I know I did and it was NOT a plane because it's dark outside. The moon is strong so that may have helped me see it.. The shape was not easy to pick up but was closest to a "triangle" or shape of a standard airplane without the body,just the wings. It almost looked translucent with brighter spots of a lighter shade if that makes sense. It was very low,I would say no more than 1000 feet, I know ! how high that is because I build skyscrapers for a living. I know there is something other than us out there but it's very strange to actually see it and the hair stood up on my neck and arms and I was and am just "shook up" or something. As a side note there is unrelenting chemtrails activity over this area on a daily basis and I have lots pics of this activity. Don't know what else to say about it. Thank you.

Red light suspended over the Socastee area of Myrtle Beach. Occasionally shifting but remaining stationary most of the time. A friend across town saw the same object. It was closer to their location & said it was a red triangular-shaped object.

Myrtle Beach, SC
Saw a friend's Facebook post asking what were the red lights in sky over Socastee/Burgess, SC. I went out side and saw stationary lights ..that could be missed as stars..it was a bright night but there was lightening off in distance over ocean. A plane flew by at about the same altitude and I could see the difference because it was moving.. The shape was an arched triangle, wide in front with line of whit lights and red flashing in center. There were more lights inside the trianglular shape which is what made it clear. I wondered if it could be a weather balloon or drone. There was no noise..I came back out 3 times to veiw it and it never moved. There was no sound but it was very big up and impossible to photograph on my iPad or phone..probably would have been quite clear by telescope. Sighting confirmed by my friend. I also saw much larger clearer triangular moving lights between Pine Bush and Walden in Orange County, NY, in the 80s, confirmed by many people, who also saw it.

McHenrry, IL
Seen light out of corner of my eye. Was instantly sure it was a shooting star until I was able to look right at it and noticed it was three lights in a triangle shape traveling straight east about 1/3 the speed of a shooting star. I would say they were traveling parallel to the ground. Don't believe in ufos. Not a perfectly clear night but clear enough I don't think a light could be as defined as they were shining on a cloud layer. Would say very slightly hazy. No moon visible. Very strange.

Dillingham, AK
An object was circling very low around Dillingham downtown area with 3 lights one orange and 2 white. After following the object, it stopped for 5 minutes above the tundra then contunued to circle around. It continued low towards the tundra but couldn't drive through the tundra, so it just faded slowly. Before we saw this, our car had a hard time turning on.

We thought, gee that’s really weird, and continued to watch it for several minutes. We continued our walk, looking up once in a while to see that it was still not moving. After a few minutes we looked up again and noticed 2 of the lights had changed to green and were flashing and the triangle was moving extremely quickly in a straight line to the south. There was no noise during this time coming from the object.

Silver Spring, MD
While driving to work on the westbound lanes of I-495 in Silver Spring, I noticed extremely bright lights in the distance. There were 2 white lights with a red-light in the center then 2 more white lights. At first it looked like lights from a plane, but they weren’t moving at all, so then I thought maybe aircraft warning lights for a crane, but as I drove closer, I noticed that the lights were just hovering motionless over the highway. I thought it could be a helicopter but I saw not rotors and heard no engines. When I drove underneath it I saw the dark triangle like shape with wings swept back with a tail. It reminded me of a backward X-29 plane with the cockpit being the tail but with no engines just a rounded triangle with the lights on the wings. It was hovering approximately 200 feet above the I-495 outer loop across from Holy Cross Hospital. There was a lot of traffic and I couldn’t have been the only one to see that it was not a plane or helicopter.

Van Buren, AR
My son came into my bedroom around 9:30 pm, very excited, asking why I hadn't answered his phone call. I told him my phone was charging in the living room. He told me that as he was driving to his grandfather's house, he noticed 3 lights, and at first thought they were military aircraft flying in formation. Then, he noticed something was odd with the lighting and took a closer look. He stopped his truck and got out of the vehicle to observe a large triangular object. He described it as 2-3 football fields big. He said he was scared and his heart was racing. He said it was completely silent as it slowly passed overhead. I talked to his grandfather this evening. His grandfather said when he arrived at his house he was excited and told him the entire story. I asked why he didn't get pics or video, but his reply was that he was too busy calling me, trying to get me to come outside so I could see it. Today, my son tells me he can't believe what he saw and ! seems very reluctant to talk about it.

Bel Air, MD
9 white lights, arranged in 3 groups of triangles. The three triangles formed a larger triangle. Craft was swift and silent, headed almost due north. Came over house, watched as it moved out of view. Airliners in the sky as normal, moving east to west. UFO was much lower to the ground.

I decided to lay in the hot tub the day after "the show" to see if the show would continue. I was out from 8:30 pm to 10:30 pm and did see two "blobs" shoot across the sky. They were whiteish and the almost looked like blobs of water. They were very liquid looking. The fact that I was able to see it a second night and that the activity had decreased makes me think that it was atmospheric phenomena. Perhaps a static plasma discharge. These are the things in common with each time: 1) Colder on the day then previous days. 2) Not a time I would normally be outside - temps were in the 30's. 3) Active meteor shower or northern lights at the time.

((ADDENDUM FROM ANOTHER ANONYMOUS SOURCE, POSSIBLY THE PARTY WHO SUBMITTED THE ORIGINAL REPORT.)) Not a hoax at all I have seen the same object two times very close to the target in Burke. Coming home from the twinbrook shopping center. Three bright lights in the formation of a triangle. this object was silent, black triangular objects hovering slowly cruising at low altitudes over the tree line. Sighting was at night. These objects had pulsing white lights that appear at each corner of the triangle. ((END ADDENDUM)) Source of report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. We suspect that the report may be an attempt at hoaxing our Center. PD

Me and my boyfriend were sitting in his car late at night in a large excavation sight, when all of a sudden three lights appeared in a triangle pattern and a one by one formation. The first light came on, then the second, then the third- this occurred while moving horizontally across the South West sky. The lights then continued to turn off in the same pattern as they appeared in. Three bright white lights on the same craft, there was no colored lights what so ever, no flashing lights etc. There wasnt anything with in this area that could of caused these lights in the sky, no telephone towers, no airport lights, etc. This was on the out-skirts of town that consitited of just desert and lava rocks, no near by cities or towns-closest place from the South West area is 2 hours away (Las Vegas). The craft was high in the sky and came out from behind the mountains, the way it moved, how the lights turned off and on in a intellectual triangular pattern-there's no doubt in my mind that this wasn't a UFO! Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

I decided to lay in my hot tub at about 7 pm on Sunday, March 6th, 2016. About a half an hour later I noticed out of the corner of my eye to the north what I thought was a wave or ripple in the sky which is very typical when the northern lights are going to put on a show. I got a different show instead. I saw 30 to 40 "somethings" between 7 pm and 10 pm - it was almost like watching traffic or a decent metor shower. They were triangle shaped to blob shaped. Most were translucent or perhaps a hazy or streaked white and at arm's length 2 to 4 inches in size. Two I saw very clearly and one was a three points of light triangle. The other one had several orangeish lights. I have been an avid sky watcher for 15 years and spent most of the time watching commercial aircraft fly over. Never seen anything unusal until recently. Is southern Minnesota in a flap right now?

Saw a translucent flying triangle, it was like it was cloaked. It blended into the surrounding sky and was silent. I saw something catch my eye and ran to get a better veiw. It seemed to be a triangle shape with a slight kind of glow but it seemed to match surrounding sky. This is true as i don't believe in ufo rubbish this. Is my one and only ever sighting

Super fast moving and loud.. Enough that it shook the house. Two flying very close to each other and looked like jets but each only had one green light on the bottom. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Ocala, FL
I witnessed a triangular UFO above the Ocala National Forest at 10:30 PM on March 1, 2016. There was a green light that went from the UFO to the ground, then it disappeared. It was far into the woods, but it appeared to be above the U.S. Navy Pinecastle bombing range that is in the Ocala National Forest. After the light beam disappeared, the whole thing vanished.

A large object with a flashing light in middle with 2 lights on the sides. Flying lower to the ground than a typical aircraft or helicopter. The distance between the lights would indicate a large size craft. We listened for engine noise and heard none. It appeared and moved in a fast side to side motion, and turned. It then disappeared, but there were no clouds or buildings.

I watched a large craft with white lights on the wings and two flashing red lights near the center, one over the other flying low over the water. this craft made a loud noise like turbine engines would make. sounds normal right? wrong next thing I see is 3 of these flying in a triangle formation and circling back and forth like they were searching for something, them 3 more craft appeared in the same area and all with the same lighting. I watched them fly back and forth for around 30 to 40 minutes. I tried to signal one of them with my flash light and one craft shined a bright light towards me for and minute or so them 3 of these things preceded to slowly head towards the north heading for the space center and the others just vanished. this had to be seen by many people in my area because of the noise and duration of the occurrence.

Salunga/Landisville area right by highway 283, PA
I was driving home with a buddy from a friends house when he shockingly yelled out of the window "What ((deleted)) is that!?" Meanwhile I only caught a glimpse because I was trying to focus on the road but when I finally did see this odd aircraft I freaked out. It was the biggest thing I ever saw pilot through the sky. So quickly I pulled over the car to get a better look. The object was maybe 1000 ft high from ground level which is actually very close and I could pretty much see its make up even though it was dark. The object was your "generic" triangular shape with a white light on every point of the triangle and a small flickering red light in the center. The object was far too big to be a helicopter and almost too big to be any type of large plan. The object also made absolutely no sound which is ridiculous for something of that size and low to the ground. I knew for a fact this was not an aircraft that was normal to these skies. The object moved at a very slow pace but seemed to be covering ground quickly do to its size. The aircraft also made several manuvers that seemed odd for any normal aircraft, flying almost completely sideways at some points. I was only able to witness this terrifyingly stunning phenomenon for about 10 minutes before the craft Heade over some trees...! I decided to get back in the car and pull forward to see behind the trees but after that I no longer saw the object. I've always believed in the type of activity but still never had any prove. I can say that my friend and I witnessed something incredible and we both have a story to tell wether we sound crazy or not. All I know is that it was real and happening right before my eyes. This all occurred by highway 283 Salunga/Landisville are in Pennsylvania between the hours of 10-12 (not sure exact time). Everyone please look up and open your eyes.

On the way back from the store we looked for it to see if it was still there and it was. We kept our eyes on it as we drove up a hill and realized the entire triangular object started moving really fast across the sky. The object looked slanted with a flat surface and was covered in lights. There were a bunch of helicopters in the area as well.
