Before this sighting, I was a huge skeptic about this stuff. I'm still not sure what these were, but I do know what I saw doesn't match up with anything I have ever heard of, read about or seen before. I am not an aeronautical expert or even hobbiest, but I can't get the piture of these things out of my head and have been doing research all day. I came across this website where I have read several peoples' desciriptions of similar sightings and thought I would share my own.

The time was between 2:30 and 3:30 AM. I was catching a ride home from a friend and had some trouble getting into my house that night. I had recently moved away and was back to visit and I forgot to grab a key from my dad. Anyways, my friend offers to let me crash at his place, so we make the 5 or 10 minute drive it takes to get to his place.

We pull up and I grab a couple things from his back seat before we turn and start to head towards his side door. At this point, we are facing East with a full(ish) moon off to our right. I honestly don't remember who saw them first but there in the sky, traveling in a general north-east direction, are 3 objects moving in perfect synchrination. There appearance was triangular, and they all looked the same. They appeared to have yellow lights on each corner of their respective triangles with an red-orange light in the center. As they traveled we noticed that the formation they were moving in was a giant perfect triangle. The thought occurred to me that we might actually be looking at one distinct object, but they were fairly high up and it was dark enough to make it dificult to tell for sure.

A couple other things of note from this sighting: (1) it was very dificult to determine how fast and in which direction they were heading. I am also fairly certain they were not on a strait course. There appeared to be some back and forth movement in their route. (2) The lead object (or appeared to be the lead), disappeared about halfway through the sighting just as an additional object appeared back towards where we first noticed them. No idea if this additional object was the same object that moved very fast without us noticing or an entirely different object all together. (3) We heard absolutely zero sound coming from these objects even though they moved fast enough that it would be expected if they were using any human technology that I am aware of.

At the end of the day, I still do not know what these things were, but I can say that I much more open to the possibility of there being something else out there that we are sharing this universe with. Hope someone out there has seen something similar and can share some information or at least theories.
