Location: Kalispell, MT
Shape: Triangle
Duration: 20 minutes
Characteristics: There were lights on the object, The object made a sound
Two objects seen flying, stopping, and then dissipating.

The first object was a triangular shaped craft. I would say it was at least three football fields wide and about a quarter of that long. There were five giant lights spaced at regular intervals from tip to tip (width) on the craft. The craft seemed to vibrant and hum as it passed overhead. It traveled fairly fast. It got to about 4 miles away and then it abruptly stopped* and then disappeared over a period of about 5 seconds. The spot where it was just looked many stars bunched together that are no longer there when you look at that general area.

*With how big the object was and how fast it was traveling, it should not have been able to stop that fast and that’s what made me first think that humans could not have made this.

The second craft appeared about 3 minutes after the first craft disappeared. It flew from the southeast and was descending. I would estimate the craft was about as wide as the wingspan of a commercial jet and about as long two football fields. It had a cylindrical fuselage. It had one green light near the front and two purple lights at the rear. The front sloped down from the main body of the craft and was lower than the rest of the craft as well. I heard no noise from the craft. It also stopped very quickly and disappeared. Just like the previous craft, the place where the craft stopped looked like a bunch of stars.

I saw or heard nothing more for the rest of the night, but the next evening I looked at those two spots and did not see the bunch of stars from the night before, making me think it was some kind of camouflage.
