Location: Modesto, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Emitted beams

Triangle shaped object with red and blue lights hovered for sometime.

We were having a gathering outside our home Sunday May 28th, 2005 when my wife noticed an object in the sky giving off a purpleish light. I looked at it and thought it was only a star, because it wasn't moving so I didn't feel it was an airplane or other aircraft.

The object continue to hover for about another 20 minutes and by now more people were looking at it so I decided to get a pair of binoculars to take a closer.

My heart drop when I focused in and discovered that it was some sort of aircraft, but none like I had ever seen before. It was a triangle shape with a series of bright blue and red lights (really bright lights).

The object hover a few moments more before it started moving in a side to side motion while dropping lower in the sky at the same time. It finally flew out of view after we watched it for about 15 minutes. It was too far away to photograph.
