Bolivar, MO
On Friday the 24th night of July, 2015, a friend and myself were out driving the back roads of the incorporated county. We decided to stop out by an old quiet farmhouse out very northwest of Bolivar and Morrisville to have a cigarette before returning home for the night. As we sat in the car on the roadside we thought we saw a couple of airplanes, but soon realized that the group of lights we were seeing moving toward us from over the fields were moving too slowly and too low to the ground to be airplanes. The formation of oblong triangles moved swiftly and silently in different attack pattern formations. They each emitted several lights but it appeared as if there were smaller light bars along the midsection of the hypotenuse of each craft and circular flood light type landing lights that were emitted from beneath all three corners. The craft seemed to do what can only be described as several flock formation maneuvers.

It began as a glowing object in the sky moving from the west to the east. Embers started to drop as it moved. The glowing started to flicker then went out. After the light went out we could see that it was triangular in shape and rotating as it moved until we could not see it anymore. This is the second time we have seen this object.

Carrboro, NC
I was out jogging down Rock Haven Road/BPW club. I saw two bright hazy orbs in the west- south western sky. They were basically in line with Carrboro High School's track and field area. It was cloudy last night, so I thought it was the moon coming through the clouds. These lights looked as bright as the moon, and had the same slightly yellowish-white color. I proceeded to jog for approximately two more minutes, when I looked up at the sky, what I thought was the moon had shifted its position in the sky. The lights were no longer in line with the track and field area, and appeared from my vantage to now be at the north end of the high school. I continued to jog, now about to turn on BPW club, when I could actually see the object moving at approximately the same speed I was running (~6 mph) to the North-north east. The two original orbs were visible, and I thought I could make out a dimmer third light. There was no sound. I was alone and got frightened. I discontinued observing the object and jogged back to my apartment. While doing so, I called my mother, thus I did not experience any sort of electrical interference. It should be noted, that I could not easily tell how far the object was away from me, so my estimates of speed are likely very incorrect.

This is the third time I've seen this UFO. I was driving alone again in Perry County, MS, on Hwy 98. It was triangular with red and white lights. Some lights were blinking. I saw it in the distance and sped up to get a closer look. It disappeared behind some trees. It reappeared again shortly after, but closer and to my left. I was going slowly and could observe the way it flies. It can move upward almost vertically. Like in a straight line, nose up, and rather slowly. It can also change directions quickly. It soon disappeared behind the treeline again.

I was mowing my grass when my wife noticed three black triangle craft in the sky. There was a purple hue coming from the rear of the craft and a rotten egg smell in the air. there was a buzzing noise and when my son came out his ears popped. they just hovered and then shot off. my dog was shaking in nervous temprement during sighting. We wonder whether this is a serious-minded report. PD

We were driving on I-10, toward Texas, when we noticed a light in the lower atmosphere. It did not appear to be moving. It was just hovering. As we got closer to it, we could see that it was 3 lights, two white and one red, in the shape of a triangle. I attempted to take a picture of it with my phone, but it wouldn't show up in my screen. The craft stayed in view until the interstate turned, and we couldn't see it anymore.

Newport News/Hampton, VA
I just cam out the Newport News tunnel headed into Hampton, I noticed a craft in sky but it wasn't moving. I asked my wife to take a look at it because I couldn't identify it. She couldn't, either. As we got closer we could see the shape of a triangle. This craft had a light on each of the conners. No airplane is stationary in the sky helicopter is as big or shaped this way, there were no blinking lights at all. I live less than a mile from an airport I know what airplanes, jets, and helicopters look like at night, this thing was none of those. I lost sight of it when I shot straight up in the air disappearing completely. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Mulberry Township, KS
Around 10:20 pm on the night of 7/21/15, my friend and I were sitting on the back porch stargazing when we encountered a very slow, low-flying craft coming from the east. We live in a fairly close proximity to a National Guard bombing range so we've seen our fair share of strange planes and all manner of aircraft, but this was by far the most interesting and unique encounter we've had to date. The craft was triangular in shape, with a single white light on each corner and a blinking red light on the middle of the underside. What really struck us about the object is that it was flying incredibly low, much lower than other aircraft we've seen during military flyovers, and of course much, MUCH lower than any commercial airplanes that regularly fly overhead. The second striking feature was the speed at which the object was moving--it was easily the slowest moving craft to ever fly overhead (and that's really saying something in A10 and AC130 territory!) It took approximately ten minutes to completely disappear from our line of sight. The thing that seemed to differ from other reports that we've read since our encounter last night was the noise level. While others seem to describe similar encounters as quiet or silent, our craft was quite loud, emitting a low rumble that could be heard even after it was out of our sight. As an interesting side note, shortly after that experience, we saw on the local news that a Blackhawk helicopter was forced to make an emergency landing at a relatively local airport--connected? In any case, the craft is welcome to fly by any time it wants, it was a wonderful experience.

Wilmington, DE
As we sat at the traffic light at the intersection of route 13 and Rodgers road facing DuPont highway, we witnessed a triangular craft hovering about 300 yards in front of us and extremely low to the ground. As soon as the light turned green, the craft began to move forward towards us then made a right turn heading south. After the craft began heading south it with vanished or the lights went out but it was no longer visible. The object was silent and appeared to be transparent or of a material that did not reflect light. There were 3 White lights forming a triangle and one red flashing/blinking light. This was approximately 5-10 miles from the New Castle Airport but it was definitely not an airplane or helicopter.

Walking dog, heard a noise and white light coming over the trees. Looked up thinking there was a very low flying plane. Once the aircraft emerged fully from the tree line, I noticed that this was no airplane or aircraft that I have ever seen before. Aircraft was massive in size but was moving pretty slow. It was pretty loud as well. It was a perfect triangle with white lights at each corner and a red flashing light in the middle.

Five minutes after the fore-mentioned time, a vibration interrupted our household and myself as well as my girlfriend proceeded to observe an aircraft come low and turn sharp overhead our community. Others were outside alongside the street. It circled around over the course of 15 minutes and returned in the same way, exiting in the same direction. On both wings I saw a stable red light. The front was conventionally triangle-shaped, with the back end open.

Rocklin, CA
I walked out front of my house in Rocklin, California, around 2 am on Monday Morning, and I noticed a distant star like object that seemed to have a glowing tail. At first I thought I believed it to be a star, but then I noticed it was wobbling and appeared to be falling. It was glowing from red to blue, at which point I ran inside to get my mother and my nephew to make sure they saw the same thing I did. They came outside and confirmed what I was looking at. The star like object was wobbling back and forth while changing colors. Then it appeared to throw tiny sparks out of the northern end. We concentrated on this object for a while trying to figure out what it was. Our perception led us to believe it was taking place in outer space because the physics are not possible due to earth’s gravity and atmosphere. We knew it was not a star or a plane, we did not know what it was. We were bewildered by what we were looking at and we started looking around the night s! ky at other stars. Then we saw something truly remarkable. A large black object which had 3 bright lights shaped as a triangle with a red light in the middle, and it was hovering for a couple minutes directly north of us. We started to point at it, and were shocked and were not sure what we were looking at, then it started to move, and it flew directly over us. This object made little to no sound, which did not make sense considering how big the lights were, at that point we knew we were seeing something unexplainable. This object flew right over us, picking up speed until it moved behind a tree and then it was gone. The triangular object moved much faster than normal planes and helicopters. This object was almost silent and we are not sure the distance to the ground because the lights were huge and very bright. Once it passed the trees we lost track of the object. We focused our attention back to the original star like object. The star like object was still hovering and ch! anging colors while the triangular shaped object was gone. Abo! ut 1 min ute later we saw what seemed to be a helicopter that made a circle around the area we saw the triangular object. The helicopter was loud and had normal looking lights thus we believed it to be a helicopter. Also a few planes flew in that direction afterwards, again, they were loud and contained normal lighting, and the speed of the helicopter and planes were normal. The triangular object moved faster than both the helicopter and planes. The triangular object also was silent compared to the helicopter and planes that came next, (Almost like they were tracking this object) We believed the helicopters and planes were tracking this object because they flew in the same direction and made a circle around the star like object in the distance. We must have sat outside for 45 minutes at least trying to figure out what we saw. The Star like object in the distance was still hovering/and blinking which looked like it was falling. But did not actually fall, we watched the star like objec! t grow dim until it to was gone. At this point the night sky was silent again, we decided to go back inside our house, and none of us were sure what exactly we saw. The craziest thing was how big the lights were on the triangular craft like object, and the red light directly in the middle, we are still not sure what we saw. We cannot explain it. We all agree we have never seen anything like this before.

Three orange red color ball shape objects in triangle formation moving west they were not lanterns because the wind was blowing to the east and objects were traveling towards west. Later that night, channel 4 new reported triangle shape objects in the finger lakes region. Wilson is about 3 hours west from there.

I looked into the sky, and immediately I noticed blinking lights. There is a direct flight path for commercial jets and for military aircraft over my house, so I am always careful to be sure of what I am seeing. Tonight I stared and rubbed my eyes, and I looked around, and I KNOW what I saw was not normal. I saw, at first, two. I looked around and saw another and one more! They were stationary and triangular shaped. The triangular form was highlighted by the lights that were all around it. To top it off, there seemed to be a brighter, straight line of lights going from the point of the triangle, down one side, and through the bottom straight edge of it. I stared for awhile, then went to Facebook to see if anyone else saw it. Most people were off FB for the night, but one coworker was still there, so she decided to look, too. She couldn't believe it. She saw what I saw and she saw just as many! We still do not know what they are, and they are still there as I! go to bed.

Craft then proceeded to very abruptly travel what appeared to be 20 miles, before abruptly slowing and disappearing over the mountains. I was able to capture a photo with an iPhone 5.

Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
I was on my living room sofa, watching late movie with the volume down since kids were just went to bed after their summer school at Ridgecrest. I heard humming sound with the electric current from outside. Initially I thought it was someone is driving their EV or Hybrid, because my Optima Hybrid made similar sound at its EV mode. However, sound seems very loud compare to any other hybrid car that I have seen. So, I looked out the window, which was just next to my sofa. There was nothing on the street. But there was a triangle shape flying UFO hovering, or very slowly moving, on top of my home. I was looking at it for may be 10 to 15 seconds or more. I was speechless at first, but I think I said to myself, "What ((deleted)) is that? What the hell is that thing??? OMG!!! How can it hovering, without making any sound...but I can feel electric humming sound." These are the words that I was talking to myself during the observation. So I was probably witnessing less than 20 seconds or so, approximately. I need to stop the incidence report here for moment and describe my initial sighting of this object back in January 2015. I was walking outside my home on the night of January 5, 2015, approximately around 07:50 PM, I witnessed a strange flying object that does not flying like a plane or helicopter. And it was flying at very slow speed with not so high altitude. It was definitely higher than tall trees in PV, but much lower than conventional flying altitude of helicopter. I went to my car and grab a binocular and saw the object and, it was a somewhat triangle shape (not the perfect triangle, I was not too sure about the perfect or not due to the visibility was not clear) with the 3 flashing red lights on each corner. There was a center bright light on bottom and top which was on and off. Ever since, my curiosity lead me to follow the object whenever I saw it. It used to come up in the same area at same hours. It seems to have regular schedule of flying hours. Then sometime in May or June, it was stop showing itself. I was pretty much forgot about it since it did not show and had busy work schedule and with the kids... Now going back to the story that I paused for minute. This almost perfect triangle shape was hovering very low on top of my home which is probably about at 4 story high, less than 40-50 feet high. I was able to see very clearly..its shape, material of the body. When I first saw back in January with my binocular, I thought it was a black color, but it was more like a silver or gray, hard describe its color, but very materialistic color, may be like graphite. However, it was not pulsating red flash light in three corners. It was a white flash lights in the three corners, but no center light. My phone was at my computer desk and was charging and I did not want to miss the opportunity to witness the close up encounter with this object. Suddenly, my cat jump up to the window and I was surprised by sudden presence of my cat and made a sound. The object seems to notice that I was watching it at that moment. It quickly began to emit very bright center light with the high charging electric sound which last only may be less than two seconds, then it began to accelerate toward the ocean very fast for about 50 feet then got disappeared. After I witness the UFO, I searched online and trying to find out about the object online and close thing that I discover was a flying object called TR3B. However, it was not entirely the same from one that I saw. If you type TR3B on You tube, then you can see video image from France, it was illuminating center light bottom and top and disappeared in front of your eyes. However one that I saw was only from the bottom portion center was illuminate. and moving speed approximately 50 feet was just blink of an eye, less than second or so. It was not very big. It was probably only about 1.5-2 times bigger than my Optima. I was able to feel our window was vibrating at that time when the object was hovering our home. Perhaps, I am exaggerating, but it seems like it was checking on me because I was following it for few months every time I saw it. My wife told me to stop thinking about it and maybe I better stop thinking about it. I did not expect it to show up on top of my home.

Sinking Spring, PA
As I looked at the horizon across from my deck, I saw three bright lights in the sky, hovering in a triangular pattern, just above the tree line across from my subdivision. One by one the lights moved away from one another. One light shot off to the left, fairly quickly, but not so fast that I could not follow it's route. The second went up and faded away, and the third shot off to the right, fading away as though it also went off into a great distance. I swear to God that I tired to rationalize this in my mind as fireworks, or aircraft, or "something." But please believe me when I tell you that it could not have been any of those things. The three lights were obviously very high up in the sky, and not only did they hover, but they seemed to bounce around a little bit as they hovered there. Then they moved of! f in different directions, one by one, as I said. It happened in about one minutes time. I felt frozen in place, unable to look away for fear of missing this phenomenon. Folks, I'm not sure if I should feel blessed or afraid, but I saw it plain as day, no question. Did anyone else see this? I feel afraid and emotionally touched at the same time, because I truly believe I have seen something extraordinary here. I always thought this crap was nonsense, but not anymore.

Jeffersonville, IN
On July 17, 2015 at approximately 10:15pm eastern standard time in Jeffersonville, IN. There was an object approaching our home from the southern direction with one solid light in the front. From a distance you could see a rounded top that appeared to be a helicopter. However, as it got closer it was hovering above and within 100 yards of the ground. There was absolutely no sound and it remained extremely steady during 50-60 mph winds with absolutely no movement. It was during this time that the power to the house began to go on and off four times, not flickering,but distinctly turning off then back on. It then turned 1/4 of a circle and proceeded forward to the west almost gliding like. It was at that point you could make out two more visible lights on each back corner indicating the object was a triangular shape. Directly in the middle of the back side was a large circle (red orange in color) that looked like a jet engine that just glowed, but again there! was no sound.

I was watching one ufo that looked like a little white light in the sky above me fly in a westwordly direction when a triangle shaped fire flew by going north i watched this object even got it on video it did not seem to change shape or size just kept getting further away and after another 2-3 minutes it did what i seen many ufos do and thats get small enough to the point where it vanishes. After that i tryed looking for the first ufo but it was gone too. If that was a ufo it would explain why the white lights become red sometimes maybe they manipulate fire to help them fly like they can change from a white flame to a red or amber type color i just wish i knew what these things were.
