Kailua Oahu, HI

A bright triangular shaped object with red and green lights at each point was hovering over ocean NE of Kailua. I’ve seen it every clear night for the past week, or so. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Sorry, it was last night, January 11th. ((END ADDENDUM))

Nottingham, MD

Triangular sort of shaped object with one light on each side of what I would call wings like on a plane. The object was dark and hovering just above the apartments. The area is dark but we saw that it was large. Traffic moved and so did we. At the time the object was still there.

West Allis, WI

January 10, 2019, 0615 A.M. Milwaukee, Wisconsin. While driving south on 87th Street approaching Wisconsin Avenue from the Froedtert Hospital Health Complex, I noticed a white, green and red flashing object in the shape of large “3 corner hat” in the distance toward the south. It was still dark at this time and the object was very bright and clear. It seemed to hovering over the general area. As I turned and proceeded east on Wisconsin Avenue, I noticed that it was actually moving slowly. I turned south onto 76th street from Bluemound Avenue. The object became brighter and continued to alternately flash bright red and green. I noticed a “bar” of 4 to 5 white lights on the underside of the object which also flashed on and off. What surprised me then was the appearance of a white bright light “ball” that seemed to meet the 3-corner shape object and then disappear. As I was approaching the area of the Wisconsin State Fair Park on the 76th street side, which covers approximately one square mile, I noticed that the 3-corner object was passing east to west over the entire area. I was driving slowly to see if this was some sort of airplane, but it clearly was not as it was traveling east to west over the area, relatively fast. I then called the non-emergency phone number of the West Allis police department. The department had not received any other calls on the matter and the operator suggested that I call again if I see the object again. Unfortunately all law enforcement officers were out on emergent calls and could not be dispatched to confirm my sighting. I watched as long as possible while driving home and it was very clear that this was a sizable object that I would compare to being a fifth of the size of a full moon in the sky. The object was low enough to see the 3 corner shape and appeared to be traveling further south as I watched, over a wider area than the State Fair Park area of what is known as the city of West Allis, Wisconsin, known as the Milwaukee postal code area. I am certain of what I witnessed this morning.

Sandown, NH

I was looking up at the North East sky at what I thought was a small metior or space debris, way up, like a plane. Went South West. Watched for 30 seconds or so and the i saw, what I thought was a plane, but it wasn't. It had 3 lights facing down, like dull headlights on a car. And a flashing red light, I think in the center. It was following the first smaller craft. I watched it go south west until I couldn't see it anymore.

Southington, CT

Was traveling on Route 84 west, between exits 31 and 30, at 6:30am, when in front of me, off in the distance some three miles away one triangular shaped object (with three points aiming up) was descending rapidly straight down. It was bright white/silver thinking the sun was reflecting off of it. As it disappeared I expected a large sound thinking it was going to crash and explode. As I was driving on Route 84 towards where I figured it crashed. Kept looking for any orange glow and/or smoke but nothing. Tried to rationalize by thinking it was a satellite or other space debris. Nothing on the news.

Cambridge City, IN

My wife and myself were driving E on US 40 just passing downtown Cambridge City when we noticed a large triangular (?) shape craft flying very low in airspace that doesn't make sense. What I mean is, it at first resembled a commercial airplane considering the size and formation of lights, but it was flying at a height just barely above the trees/power lines and housetops, flying N/NW. There were 2 white lights where wings of a jet or plane might be, and one red light at the tail that was flashing (hence, forming a triangle). I know this sounds like a commercial airplane, but there's no way that this "plane" would have been flying so low and without sound to boot. After noticing these anomalies, we began to chase after it, heading N on Graham Street and E on Delaware to jog over to SR-1 N. As we headed N on SR-1 and could still see the object for a few minutes, this time flying NE/N, until it was gone above the industrial park just south of the! SR-1/I-70 Interchange. Looking back on the event, and even though this sighting happened after dark, my wife believes that the object looked, most-likely, that it was in fact 1 or 2 separate objects (accounting for both of the white lights) with the red-lit flashing object in tow. I couldn't necessarily say that I saw anything between the lights, and she's not saying that she could either, but that made more sense to her senses and what she was actually seeing than it being 1 solid craft. Again, this is a densely-populated area that would not have seen a commercial-sized aircraft this low EVER - but that was precisely the size of it. Finally, the lights, while appearing not dissimilar in color and size to that of a plane, had an odd, square-shapedness about them. I have only seen 2 objects in my life that have made me scratch my head and I look up a lot. It should be noted that my previous sighting (which I did report to NUFORC with the date of 8/15/02) overlapped with this sighting at the location of Graham St./Delaware St. Meaning th at the object we witnessed last night passed over nearly the EXACT airspace of my only other previous sighting of a shiny spherical UFO.

Imperial Beach, CA

We saw a triangle shaped object. Looked to be mirrored on one to two sides. As it rotated it appeared to change color to white. It looked to hover about 400 to 500 feet up in the air and then slowly ascend upwards, then disappeared. We saw it change rotation.

Cincinnati, OH

-Background: I have no pertinent professional background, but have an interest in astronomy and bird watching, so I spend a lot of time on my back deck observing the cosmos with a telescope and watching birds with a spotting scope. I live a few miles north of CVG intl. airport with my deck facing west, so I also use my spotting scope to track the occasional plane as they approach along a southern trajectory. -Moment of sighting + description of craft: I was in my back yard (no scope) staring roughly WSW trying to get a good view of the Aquarius constellation for several minutes when I noticed the object moving at what appeared to be a fairly low altitude, though I could not discern with certainty, along a NNW to SSE trajectory at an extremely high velocity. The object virtually flew right over my head (seemed to be less than 1/4 mile to the west), yet it was 100% silent. It is difficult to estimate its size, as I could only make out the lights and not the body of the craft itself. The lights numbered between 6 and 10 and were arranged in a triangle. They were very dim, such that if I hadn't already been looking in that direction with my pupils adjusted to view the dim starlight I certainly wouldn't have seen it. The lights didn't blink or change at all, and also lacked any discernable hues, appearing to be a dim grey shade. It traveled in a straight line and was out of sight in a matter of 10 seconds or less, seemingly covering several miles in that brief window of time.

Wichita, KS

On January 3, 2019, at approximately 9:30pm, our 11 month old son was fussy, so I took him out for a car ride. I suspected that it might take a while to get him to go to sleep and since it was a nice night, I decided to head north out of town. We live in N.E. Wichita just outside of Bel Aire. I drove North on Oliver to 53rd St. N. I then turned East on 53rd to Greenwich. At Greenwich I turned South until 45th St. At 45th St I then proceeded back to the West. At some point, as I was approaching Rock Rd. (on 45th St.), I noticed a rather large and bright light ahead of me on the horizon. The light looked white or a white/yellow. I thought at first it might be a light on the water tower or a radio tower in the distance. As I continued West on 45th I realized that the water tower and its lights were not in line with this light (which seemed to be stationary). I passed the water tower and proceeded West on 45th St and could now see the radio tower in the distance an it’s lights. The tower was North of the light in question. The light at this time had begun to dim and didn’t seem as bright. It was however in the same position (or so it seemed) as it was when I first noticed it (1.5 miles ago). As I approached Oliver (sti! ll on 45th St.) the light seemed to be getting lower, as it was now becoming obstructed by trees. At this time, my best guess was that the light was a mile or two in front of me. As I approached Hydraulic (still on 45th St.), I stopped for a train which was crossing the road. I believe there were 2 cars in front of me. While waiting for the train (2 minutes) the light did not move. If it did it may have moved toward me. Just before the train finished passing, the light began to move toward me and to the North. As I approached the intersection of 45th & Hydraulic I could now see 3 lights in the shape of a triangle. It crossed Hydraulic at approximately 1/4 of a mile to the North of 45th St. The front light (front as in relation to its travel E-NE) was blue in color. The two rear lights were white or slightly whitish-yellow. I also noticed that the lights did not blink or flash, as I expected to see a helicopter or some type of plane. When the object passed over Hydraulic, I e! stimate that it may have been at an altitude of about 1,000 ft. As it passed over Hydraulic I turned North to try an follow it as it was moving rather slow. As I traveled further North on Hydraulic I started to lose sight of it out the passenger side of our van. I approached 53rd St and turned East where I could see it ahead of me. It seemed to begin moving at a faster rate of speed. By the time I approached Oliver it was well off in the distance. I would estimate that it was 10 miles away by that time. I debated whether or not to post this report for fear of some kind of misidentification on my part but after watching the air traffic in the night sky the following days I became more sure about the differences in this object and that of other aircraft. Most aircraft I’ve seen have some kind of red light, this had none. The altitude at which the object in question was also odd. The aircraft I see here are in a landing pattern or take off at that altitude and this object did not fit the typical flight pattern of other aircraft from the surrounding airports. The main difference was the 3 solid lights beneath the object. They did not flash or blink. There was also no beacon light on this object. I believe that at the close proximity in which I was to the object I would have seen a beacon light, however the 3 lights beneath the object were the only ones I could see. At 45th & Hydraulic (my closest position to the object) it was moving very slow. I also rolled the windows down a! t that point and could not hear the propellers of a plane or helicopter. Also, I do believe the vehicle stopped in front of me while waiting for the train took notice of it and tried to follow it as well. The car turned North on Hydraulic then East on 53rd, then South on Oliver back to 45th where it then turned West again on 45th. The drivers behavior seemed to be very distracted as if they were watching the objects flight. I hope this might encourage others in the Wichita area to consider sharing their sightings as well.

I wanted to film it, but it was too fast to think about it and open my camera on my phone. I have never seen anything like this. Feel free to contact me via email.

Three red stationary orbs. Couldn’t tell if connected to craft. I’d for several minutes until two airplanes and two helicopters came to check it out, then slowly drifted up and away. Insane.

Greenfield, IN

Right after midnight 3 people witnessed a huge clear triangular craft over a field near the golf course. Too low to be a plane. It had lights in each corner that rotated with what seemed like chrome in color. It went straight up extremely fast. No noise.

Clay City, KY

My dog started growling and barking at the front door and my TV screen of the outside camera. When I looked at the camera screen, I seen blinking lights appearing in the shape of a triangle (sides only), I grabbed my phone and started recording it. My heart was thumping so fast and hard. I had such a scared feeling inside me. When it was over I tried to watch my recording but it was black and some strange noises was coming from my phone. I was able to use playback and got the recording and have it on my phone. The lights came toward the house then backed up and began to burned out. I thought it was ghost but my kids are convinced it was a UFO sighting.

Driving on the road we noticed something that was hovering , bright three lights at each corner with lights in the middle and a red blinking light , as soon as I started to record the triangle craft it started to move at a very low clearance.

Rowley, MA

What made me go outside to look was a low almost bass like sound. Making a loop around a small area of my neighborhood, it left in the same direction it came. I came inside and started researching for a forum for sightings like the one I just had. While I was searching I thought I heard the same type of sound. Going back outside I saw nothing but heard what to me sounded like just a helicopter, after going outside I could tell they we're two different sounds.

Tonganoxie, KS

Saw what I thought was a regular aircraft except it was hovering over the I-70 tonganoxie exit. Has one or two white lights toward the front like a typical aircraft and wing marker lights that would blink like a normal aircraft except the aircraft was not moving it was hovering. Triangular shape similar to stealth fighter aircraft F-117. Looked fairly large. Also, noticed one unmarked police Ford Explorer nearby before passing I-70 rest area after passing the aircraft. Not sure if they had noticed it as well.
