Duration: 10 seconds
No of observers: 2

Location: Marietta, GA, USA

Shape: Triangle


Triangle shaped craft hovered over trees and then disappeared into nothing

As said, there were two witnesses to this 'craft'. I have never reported anything of such before, mainly because I do my own research, but this needed to be heard. Two of us were in a car driving up a road from where I live, and we saw what first appeared to be a helicopter flying very low, the person with me even remarked that it was in fact one, but it was only a few feet above the trees, no more and no less. The altitude of this craft was amazingly low, and when I finally caught it with my own eyes, it had a triangular shape to it I could not find any evidence of blades on the craft. Now, of the one thing I am certain...it was not any type of helicopter mainly for two reasons. First, it made no sound, and second there would be some type of physical activity in that general area of the craft for it being that low in altitude. (Mainly, the wind velocity causing branches to sway, etc...) After seeing the craft, it seemed to have had a 'sense' of something and it finally darted back behind the trees (Tall pines). It did not take us more than 3 seconds to drive to where we could see behind the trees and into full sky view where any normal object would clearly be in view. It was gone...there was nothing. From going back to the 'site' I have not found anything, all I know is that I consider this one of the greatest sightings I have seen myself in quite a while. Certainly, I have not witnessed one that close. Broad daylight made it that much more spectacular. There was not a cloud in the sky, and you could see the metallic sheen of the craft. It truly was fascinating...And my eyes will be open to maybe capturing the image of it soon, if in fact it does show again.
