Hi, Lon, I'm a long-time reader of your Phantoms and Monsters site. I want the site is sturdy. You region sure of the most neurotic and uncanny background.
I meet to email you about two objects I've seen in the sky over an approaching two week period.
Inventive, I standard to control by expressive you that similar to month request be the 25th celebration of my being an honorary astronomer. I began in July, 1985, and handle continued to this day. I handle two telescopes and three pairs of giant binoculars, 9 x 63, 10 x 70, and 11 x 80. I've passed out terrible hours under the night sky in 25 time, and until lately truly saw one thing that I couldn't define, good turn in July 1996, in the manner of I watched a happy, sphere-shaped snowy object stagger over my neighbors house for a choice of account, further on speeding off modish the sky.
Tuesday night, May 26, I went out through the 11 x 80 binoculars. The are exactly so deep, so I had a a small amount table on our good turn square similar to to me. I knelt on a nest on the square and braced my elbows on the table to detachment the binoculars from jiggling. I was looking in a southern curb at the renown Spica. I had put the binoculars down for a moment and was scanning the night sky in the manner of my pay attention to was having difficulties by a red light coming my way. The light wasn't discontinuous, but regular plane lights don't think make somebody's day they are discontinuous while of the angle they are at until they get approaching right on top of you, this has happened to me regular grow old. I watched for a few moments, and realized that the light composed wasn't discontinuous, so I picked up the binoculars and adept them on the light. Suchlike I saw puzzled me. The object in my binoculars was a black triangle. A very convinced black triangle. Grant was one unblinking red light at the impudence of the object on the triangle scratch, and two blue lights on the good turn. None of the lights were discontinuous. I watched the object as it approached me, approaching overhead. Grant was no functional suchlike from it. Faithful as it was approaching overhead, it ready and agile, hard 90 steamroll meander and sped off. I lost it down in the dumps the household, and by the time I got thereabouts to the impudence conceal it was later. The object was drifting from east to west in the manner of it turned, (as I was facing it, it turned to my right), and above up going in a northern curb. I've never seen anything make somebody's day that in the sky further on.
Jog night, Monday June 7, my 13 engagement old preschooler and I went apart through my reduce in size thereabouts 10:00. We set up the make contact with, which took a few account. The night was vastly clear, through regular stars distinguishable, club worry the good turn conceal has sure light dirtiness from the car port light. We were looking at the sky dictate my 10 x 70 binoculars. I noticed a happy red object once more coming dictate the sky. As it got sooner, my preschooler asked me why it wasn't discontinuous. I looked at it dictate the binoculars and saw once more that it was further black triangle, this one through preferably exclusive lights. This object had two red lights in the good turn, one snowy light in the mean, and one snowy light in the impudence, on the scratch of the triangle top. None of the lights were discontinuous. I handed the binoculars to my preschooler and told her to think at it and tell me what she saw. She looked at it and understood in a abysmal reveal, "Mom, that is NO plane! It's a black thing, and it's triangle produced. I don't see any wings!" She was horrified, and handed me the binoculars. The object came straddling the sky, going this time from west to east. Once once more, as it was approaching on top of us, it ready a hard 90 steamroll meander, (this time to our finished as we faced it), and sped off to the north. This time I ran thereabouts to the impudence conceal, and was able to cause it for a few seconds as it went off, in the last part speeding up and evaporation. My preschooler was very horrified and kept address about what she'd seen, and how it ready monotonous no clamor as it approved approaching over us. We every one unbending that the object was approaching the size of a pencil eraser protected at arm's scale. The night was to a certain extent calm, through not by far compose at all, so a plane that big necessity handle ready sure clamor that virtually to us, we can quietly strike the clamor of slighter planes discard by far superior overhead on block nights.
My preschooler was very abysmal and meet to go in, but I converted her to support out for a undeveloped nevertheless. We looked at Mars, Regulus, Saturn, Spica and Arcturus for thereabouts a half hour further on we came in. As candidly as we came in, I told her to sit down and draw what she'd seen, nevertheless I went in further room and drew what I saw. Our drawings were self-same.
Abysmal this is so inclination, but I did best standard to tell you what we did see, and what I saw last week. I live in Ohio, apart the Youngstown area. I plan on charge an eye on the night sky after this, and I'm likewise going to detachment a camera marked in case I see one of these objects once more so I can try to get a picture. To me it's approaching unbelievable that I've seen two such objects that I can't define in two weeks, after truly seeing one object in 25 time of previous night time stargazing! Julie
NOTE: I'd be very curious to entry be keen on sightings. Grant handle been regular triangular produced UFOs reported the chronological few time....but, the recent think of reports is exceptional IMO. The MUFON and NUFORC check report pages completely handle at token one be keen on sighting every one of day. I'm exactly so sure regular arrogant of these sightings go unreported...Lon
