Fort Wayne, IN
i was leaving my house at around 9:30pm to run to arbys to get some dinner, as i walked out i noticed how clear the sky was and looked towards orion since it is always in view and beautiful on a clear night from my front yard. as i looked at orion i seen a airplane flying in front of it. now here is the strange part, as i turned my head towards the southeast to scan the sky, i seen a triangle craft with 4 large lights, almost taking up the whole bottom of the plane, gliding across the sky. almost directly overhead. after i caught view of the craft my mouth dropped and i turned away. having seen this same thing as a child i always wondered if i was just tired as a kid and imagined something. when i turned back to the craft it was to my surprise that it was still there. it continued completely silently arcoss the sky until i lost view of it behind a tree and the horizon. now i feel pretty fortunate because this was a long enough event that i was able to process some of it while it was happening. initially my mind said "wow that is a unique craft, maybe the local air guard base is trying out some new toys, or there is a stealth mission flying overhead" as neither of these event are uncommon. and i try to be skeptical, maybe to a fault. after i thought of this i strained to focus on the craft, it was then i noticed that the craft had a triangle shape "fuselage" for lack of a better word. coming off of this fuselage were "wings", coming off the rear of the craft extending the overall triangle shape of the craft. it is hard to describe through text, but it was like a large triangle with the bottom third missing except for strips along the edges. there was two large lights on the fuselage taking up the majority of the frame, while the wings or tails, had two lights about half the size, again taking up the majority of the frame of the craft. they were a dim yellow, constant, and i can think of no purpose for them, they were not indication lights, unless it was to indicate to someone below the craft. the movement of the craft was completely silent. when i was trying to figure out what it was i paused a moment and tried to listen to anything that might be a jet engine.only to hear nothing of the sort, just normal city noise. now the size of the craft is something that confuses me. I hesitate to offer an estimation as i have no real source for my comparison except everyday life. to me it looked the size of a jetliner maybe 1-5000 feet up. a comparison for me would be a jetliner taking off and being maybe 30-45second into flight. not that ive seen that exact scenario, but that is the estimation i can give. It looked huge, i could see the edges, i could make the outline, but it appeared as though it was shrouded by clouds. it could be that the craft was huge and flying in the clouds, but there is no way any craft ive seen would look that big being up in the clouds. if this craft was up in the clouds, i couldnt even give you an estimate as to size. i have no comparison, simple as that. if the craft were closer to ground, the size would seem more plausible,barely. still the shape and silence of the craft wouldn't. but none the less, closer to the ground brings the issue of why was it shrouded by clouds. i wont deny that i have had a fascination with UFOs, airplanes, spacecraft, science in general. which makes this experience even more shaking. I frequent nasa's page, i play computer games where you build aircraft, ive always had a passion for aviation. i COULD NOT explain what i was looking at. even while i was looking at it, trying to think of possible critiques and explanations.

Tybee Island, GA
Observed a low flying craft moving northward across marshland and crossing highway 80. Direction of flight was away from the Savannah airport and we thought it may be a small plane heading to Hilton Head airport. The craft then turned straight towards us, dropping even lower in altitude (we thought it might be a craft that was about to make an emergency landing on the highway). When the craft was flying towards us, the white lights were even stronger and appeared more like bright, cone-shaped beams. The 3 white lights were exceptionally bright. The craft turned in a very small arc of motion, heading approximately in a SE direction. From our vantage point, the back side of the craft seemed to have approximately 5 less-bright, white lights and 2 red lights that blinked alternately on either side of the craft. It continued moving SE and very low over the marsh, making no sound ( thought it might have been a Coast Guard helicopter---but was absolutely without sound).

Paris, TX
9:57PM in western sky, just above the roofline of 1 story apt building across parking lot; but it appeared to be far away, seen from a distance; duration seconds, then gone. cloudy skies; partial moon on my left now and then light dulled by cloud movement but this was in front of me as I looked to the west; my sister was with me and I asked her what that was. At about the same time she looked in that direction it simply blinked out or just disappeared. I watched the skies for a bit, in case it had merely moved but did not see it again. We are on an elevated area east of downtown Paris; it was too far away to gauge a size. It would have fit into a circle of my closed-into-an-o fingers.

Gilbert, AZ
Was sitting out in the pool visiting my parents in Gilbert for the weekend. Saw what appeared to be three orange lights in the sky moving in unison. Two lead lights followed by a seemingly equidistant third light traveling north on the horizon. We all watched these lights move in seemingly perfect locked formation. The only thing that changed was the distance between the two front lights, as if a large craft made all three lights and its visible profile or angle was changing. We watched for a good 2 min until the objects vanished from the sky. Another couple was out walking in the neighborhood and we chatted over the fence to them on the street, nobody able to explain what we had seen.

About the size of a 737, 5 white lights down the two sides I could see, plus a white light at the point facing me. There was a smaller flashing light, also white, at that pont, but was separate from the white light at the point itself.

Orange triangular lights traveling north east to south west gaining altitude while overhead. Would appear from horizon as multiple single file groups down to one every several seconds. Orange changed to red, and greenish blue at epox and continued gaining height until disappearing in southwest. Several neighbors witnessed from our back yards. One post on Facebook.

Holly Ridge, NC
I am retired Army aviation of 8 years with two deployments to Iraq. I have seen it all, day and night. I understand FAA lighting patterns and those of all aircraft worldwide. I was dropping my step daughter off at school. The time was 0814 exactly, I was headed N on Dixon Rd. toward Rifle Range Rd. The road is low speed of travel at 25 mph, a field for the school on the left high trees on the right. At the intersection there is a tall tree line. I observed a triangular pattern of three green lights. They would have been positioned directly downward from the aircraft they were attached to. They were of a flood light type, this is inconsistent with any search light, landing light or position marker lights to include night vision friendly directional lights. The aircraft appeared to be in a left bank descending turn low on the tree line as if in a final approach of a landing. In the air force it would be considered a tactical landing due to the harsh maneuver required to perform such a maneuver. Camp Lejeune is the property the aircraft was flying over.

Triangular Form 8 total sitting above Bear Mountain facing South word for visual. They are formed in Circular formation At first you see one craft. But then 8 other formations turned visible. Several accounts of loss of time 4 hours to be exact. What species are these Alie s are they aggressive? Blinking Red Blue Green Blinks like similar Jet Planes but then hovers below as they pass. And change to bright green. Are these any of significance?

First my wifi changed passwords and then changed names all together. I didn't think much of it until my cable went haywire, this is odd because it had just been installed and was brand new. I went for my home phone and called my SO somewhat panicked but the call was short lived due to connection issues and dropping calls. This continued till about 3 in the morning when it dissapeared again.

Large triangle.white light in each corner red steady light in center being escorted by what looked to be f15 or f18 (could see the two exaust trails from #2 object) in formation back and to the left of the object. This object had the normal aircraft marker lights. Flew west to east, horizon to horizon. Tried to photo with my phone but it went off, then came back on 10 minutes later by its self

My daughter and I were sitting outside on March 23 at 8:30 pm, when we spotted a triangle shape object with white lights coming from each corner at different intervals. It lasted about 15 minutes! I was actually scared for a minute! I'm 53, and I've never seen anything like it!!

Earth Day welcomed an unexplainable visitor. The star-speckled backdrop of the night sky was overshadowed by the presence of an unexpected craft. A triangular shaped vessel greater in length than any aircraft carrier this submariner ever saw, passed stealthily over the tree canopy not more than 500’ to 700’. With the exception of bow and stern light, there wasn’t a peep coming from this vessel, not even an engine roar. Even the owls, coyotes, blue heron and frogs took note of its presence as all went silent. The city lights were just enough to unveil the outline of the craft but not enough to identify any markings indicating origin. As it passed overhead heading east towards Everett from Whidbey Island, I raced to an open meadow to witness this magnificent event with greater clarity. I know what I saw. I just don’t know who sent it. The next day I waited patiently for the subject to air on the radio and nothing would be said. Even the naval air station that is just nine miles away as the crow flies from the event made no mention of it. A couple of days would pass before the subject would appear on a local radio show a friend and I were listening to. It appears that this is not the first time such a sighting had appeared in this region or around the country for that matter. Not surprising though that this sighting didn’t make the radar of the federally controlled national media.

Massive object containing three red blinking lights at each point of a boomarang-triangle formation in the western sky. Made no sound, very high altitude, moved towards Southeast.

Sitting in spa the black of night, I first saw this toward the beginning of winter heading north. I've never seen a triangle plane that blended in the night sky with no sound, or fly that fast in my life. I saw it again this evening however it was flying south. Once again it was fast, low and no sound. I thought I was seeing things the first time it happened however I know now it's real.

Benton, AR
It flew northbound and when it was directly above me, I knew it wasn't a kite, drone, or bird. There were no lights on the object and no sound. It disappeared shortly after into the clouds (partly cloudy that night) and I heard the birds in that direction start to chirp wildly. My camera was mid exposure on a 30 second shot and the object flew just outside the left side of the frame. Unfortunately, even with an ultra wide 14mm lens on at the time, I was unable to capture anything. The whole event lasted no longer than 10 seconds.

Around 1:00am on the morning of March 20th, 2015, my two sons and myself saw a triangular shaped aircraft fly over the treeline behind our house. It had three points. The two points in the back were white and the point in the front was green. It hovered over the trees for about 30 seconds before flying away at an excellerated speed. Three minutes later we saw another one fly by, without stopping, and it looked identical to the one we saw only minutes before.

Wheaton, IL
We were driving east on Roosevelt Road and spotted a very bright white light that looked to be way off in the distance. Within a minute we were along side the craft to the North of Roosevelt Rd. Besides the very bright white lights we could now see a V or triangle shape. There were two flashing white lights on either side with a couple red lights in the middle section. The craft was heading west at either a vey slow speed or stopped. It did not resemble a helicopter at all.

Athena, OR
The triangle object was moving away from us going straight west.the upper object form was hard to see but then disappeared. The triangler object was visable for 15 mins after the upper object was gone. Others driving west on had to see it. Possible over Hermisto, Oregon, or further west. We watched it until the sun set and its distance made it fade away.

I was walking home from about 2-3 blocks away and as I reached our neighbors house, out of nowhere an ear piercing horn sounded. If I had to describe it, I would say a Fog Horn would best imitate it. At first I thought it was one of my neighbors mowing their lawn and I started to look around my street. Not a single person was outside of their house. Some houses didn’t even have cars in the driveway. The horn kept getting louder as I reached the bottom of our driveway and I could hear my dog going ballistic from inside my home. Around two seconds later I felt my hair stand up and my sweatpants start to cling to my legs as I was about to be struck by lightning. I didn’t mind that as much as the horn though. I eventually thought that it could have been a helicopter or a plane flying overhead. There were only two things wrong with that idea. The first was that the sound’s “tune” didn’t increase nor decrease as it kept a very low horn like sound. The second thing that was wrong with my theory was that when I looked up to check to see if it was actually a plane or a helicopter, I saw the actual UFO. It was not like anything I had ever seen before. I saw it for a good 4-5 seconds before it disappeared into the atmosphere. It looked like it was in an Isosceles Triangle shapes and shot straight up into the sky. I did not see any form of thrusters or propellant as my angle may not have been good enough to see them if there were any. When I saw it, it sort of hovered over my neighbor’s house at about normal helicopter height and as time continued for the next 4-5 seconds it shot straight up towards the sky and disappeared in an instant. I ended up being completely scared to death and I sprinted up my driveway and started banging on the door to my house. At this time my mother who had also heard the loud horn sound, was taking care my dog who was still barking like crazy. He stopped as soon as I entered the house. I then told my mother e! verything that I had saw just then and she told me about the h! orn that she had thought to be a neighbor as well. I simply just tried to shrug it off and forget it but it was too weird and creepy to be left alone. This all occurred on March 18th, 2015, at around 14:05 pm EST.

Strange activity throughout the day, such as WiFi interference, cable TV Interference, lots of airplanes & such, BUT one such odd event was a triangular shaped objects (below radar) in the sky that was motionless, but had a mostly red glow with green hue to it. to it, after a short period, one made a u-turn & darted off towards Charlotte, & the other object lowered down & hovered, once the 1st one was gone, the other one stayed behind, shortly after the 1st one left, something came back from the direction that the 1st one went to, but this time it was a red ball, similar to a firework & and it appeared to have landed to across the highway,not to be seen again.after that, the 2nd one was gone. my son, his wife, my husband, and our neighbors, AND their friends saw this.

2 very bright lights seen in the sky about 2 miles away and above the Village Commons. Started to follow and catch up to it (weird because a car's not faster then a helicopter or airplane). Pulled into Commons parking lot and got out to look at it. Distinct triangle shape with lights at each corner and made a complete 180 and started flying opposite way. Was flying very low and slowly, made absolutely no noise. The weather was also incredibly windy so it couldn't have been a small drone.
