Triangler lights spotted 15 miles south of Little Rock Just 15-30 min south of Little Rock before getting onto Interstate 530, I notice 3 bright lights in the form of a triangle with 3 smallers one inside. It was about 3 full tree length high in the air. I thought it was a jet airliner flying into Little Rock but it was too far from the airport.

Also, it couldn't be a jet or plane, because it was flying low and really slow to just be gliding. I know there were more ppl who notice these lights, everyones break lights lit up when the triangler lights appeared. Ppl slowed down to watch this wierd event.

Triangle Craft spins overhead and then speeds away. I don't drink. I don't smoke.

I work at a church. I was at Southern Arkansas University one night at about 2:30 a.m.

I was with a friend and we were talking. We were sitting in a swing, overlooking a pond and a big open sky. In the middle of our conversation, I stopped and exclaimed "holy crap!" Off in the distance, I saw three lights, shaped like a triangle, spinning and getting closer to us.

finally, it got pretty close and lights were pretty large and they stopped spinning and just sat there. The lights were white. No sound or anything.

She saw it and we sat in awe for about 30 seconds. then, the craft turned back and jotted away very quickly. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; indicates that date of sighting is approximate.

light ufo seen on arkansas highway between Little Rock and Pine Bluff appearing to land in nearby woods. I was driving home one night from Little Rock to Pine Bluff after band practice. When i got about three fourths of the way home, i noticed a very bright and consistent white light pop out of nowhere over the freeway, which appeared to be miles away and at least 1000 feet in the air.

As soon as it appeared it swooped down to the right side of the expressway and into the treeline; there was no explosion that I could see. ((NUFORC Note: Date may be approximate. PD)).

NE Arkansas Sightings On Nov 12, 2003 I was travelling north on US 67 from Little Rock, AR to Illinois. Normally I would cut across at AR 14 or take US 412 east to I-55, but decided to go north on Rt 67. At 6:30 pm with the sun being down and with no "light pollution", I decided that the drive might yield a look at the solar flare via the Northern Lights even at this southerly latitude.

I believe I did see the northern lights or some reflection of the solar flare off of the ice cap. However I saw some very bright white clouds that appeared to change shape and brightness, unlike the northen lights which danced around these clouds did not change shape or move as rapidly as the northern lights. The clouds whiteness intensified several times and could be easily masked by the lights in a town or a yard light on the farm.

I had observed several times a changing light(s) colored red, then green, then blue then an intense whitish-blue color. This light and several others were very slow moving, but nonetheless moved and always disappeared when reaching the large Fertilzer barn facilities.

Trinangles and Meteors seen over Nortrheast AR. A meteor shower had occured the evening before on 11/4/03. Sonic booms were reported in the Forrest City, Wynne and Brinkley, AR towns.

I was travelling through the area north of where the sonic booms of the meteor(s) were heard. While that evening turning on to AR Rt 14 at Payneway, AR and looking west to Weona (unincorporated town- has store and abandoned cotton gin)the sky was clear and I saw a falling star, or at least what I thought was a falling star but this was going much too slow until it stopped! And there were 3 lights bareley visable as I and other vehicles travelled west to Weona, these lights moved in a stationary rotating position. The lights/object was below 10,000 ft in altitude (closer to 2,000 ft), it was black and triangular, there was a faint rewd light in the center of the triangle, these lights wre yellow in color.

This triangle seemed to move slow and in a north south pattern as if it were searching for something. After crossing crowleys ridge and coming into Harrisburg, I stopped for gas and mentioned to the cashier who indicated that their was some talk about the metereor shower the night before and that it occurred on both sides of crowleys ridge. At eight miles due west of Harrisburg, AR.

, I saw another one of these triangles with the same lightfomation. There was a loud hum that sounded like a transformer and my vehicles voltimeter went into the re-charge area.

triangle aprox. 20 ft on each side with a large white light in the front, two blue flashing light on the back, and small red in center My fiance and I was coming home from Trumann. Just as we got out of the town of Harrisburg and headed toward Waldenburg i noticed the wierd lights in the sky.

at first they looked simalar to an airplane but as they got closer i knew they were different. I woke him up and pulled over to the side of the road. the night before we had a sighting in the same place but the objects were not close enough to get much detail.

this night we had my home video camera with us in the car just in case we seen it again. when i got the object in sight and seen it was heading over the road, i stopped to where i thought it might cross and pulled over to the side to wait. he grabbed the camera and i was turning it on when it went over the top of my car.

he said "look at that" and when i looked up i seen a large triangle figure that was a little higher up than the pine trees to our right. the object was CLEARLY not a plane. it had a large white light on the front tip and a blue flashing light on each of the back two tips.

when it went over our heads we could see a small red light in the center on the bottom, but by the time i got the camera on and got out of the car it had already passed. i got the back of the object as it went away and then it appeared to sort of travel up like it wanted to fly at a higher level. i recorded from the time i got out of the car untill you couldnt see much detail anymore.

the video will be very useful if it could be still framed but i was so scared when i shot it that its kind of jumpy where i was shaking. these objects are in that area every time that we pass through there but we never have stopped to wait on them to come closer. the night before when we witnessed a similar sighting they didnt come that close to us.

we called his parents to tell them what we were seeing and my phone kept cutting out with static sounds (which has never happened in the two year period that ive had that phone). as we pulled off my car lights lit up and beeped and then stopped and went ba! ck to normal. and the next morning when we woke up it was all over the news about a sonic boom heard in a town that is about a 25 minute drive from there.

there was even metiors hitting in some parts of arkansas. the only other thing we saw that night was something that appeared to be a falling star but we didnt think anything of it untill the next morning when we heard about all of the other activity. ((NUFORC Note: We spoke with this witness via telephone, and we found her to be both sincere, and credible.

We do not know what it was she witnessed. PD)).

A bright light followed by a hazy tail, wider at the end, with a smaller bright light at the end, hovered in place then moved quickly. My two neighbors and I went out to walk at 5:30 am. It was still very dark.

My neighbor told us to look up, that there was something in the sky. It looked like a comet,a bright light with a dimmer tail, but the tail was wider. At the end of the tail was another bright light, smaller than the one in front.

It moved east quickly, stopped and hovered for several seconds, then moved quickly out of sight. My son and a friend spotted a similar object on 11/10/03 at approximately 7:30 pm. They came inside and told the adults to come outside to see the object.

It was witnessed by two 11 year old boys and three adults. The object that night was more hazy, with a glowing appearance and moved more slowly at an even pace.

The object apparently made no sound nor appeared to be moving in any direction was at a photography class photo shoot sponsored by local community college and this little school was required. Did not notice the object at about 11 o'clock from the tree until later. Tried to zoom in on it and it appears to look like an old tombstone in shape.

Sending photo along.

Three Lights Form Triangle in Sky Near Russellville, AR on Evening of 10/29/03 Traveling east on state highway 326 along the edge of Lake Dardanelle on the north side of Russellville, AR, my wife and I noticed three bright lights in the sky approximately 5-10 degrees above the horizon east of our location. The three lights formed an equilateral triangular with two of the lights forming the base and the third light forming the peak. They were white with a brightness approximately like headlights of an oncoming vehicle.

Based on nearby landmarks (e.g., edge of the lake, Interstate 40, etc.

), it appeared that the lights were at least a mile away from our location, but it is impossible to estimate how far away they actually were. To get an idea of how far apart the lights were from one another, if I had held a ruler with my arm extended toward the lights, I estimate that the distance between each light would have appeared to have been 2-3" apart. The lights did not blink or move while we observed them.

We saw the lights for approximately 15 seconds before they instantly disappeared. We could still see a few faint stars in that area of the sky but saw nothing at all that could possibly account for the three lights. Based on these characteristics, we do not believe that the lights were produced from airplanes or helicopters.

On October 27, 2003 was heading home from seeing friends in Hot Springs Village which is 8 miles Northeast of Hot Springs, AR. The evening was beautifully clear, with every star showing. I was travelling on Fresno Rd going approximately Northwest towards the West Gate.

In a very desolate area above the tree tops was a Triangular shaped object that blocked out the stars but had 3 lights at each apices with a very intense red light approximately in the center of the craft. I slowed down to approximately 5 mph to observe this craft, then pulled over to observe. I noticed on the next hill ahead of me someone else was looking at it as well.

I rolled down my window and listened over the din of the idle of my truck as the craft slowly at a turtles pace glided in an approximately westerly direction. There was a very low pitched hum which appeared to erratically cycle and coincided occasionally with the pulsing of the lights. I turned on my radio to KVRE 92.

9 FM, the Hot Springs Village Radio Station and there appeared to be no interference. I then switched over to an AM station and got static and a weird cycling signal in the background. I found another AM station and again the same wird signal was heard.

By this time the craft had crossed Fresno road behind the other vehicle on top of the hill. As it had crossed over the red light in the center shot a beam down into the timber for several seconds, then it began to accelerate. I continued to check my radio and the AM continued to appeared to be jammed while the FM station was not jammed.

By the time I got to west gate, the craft could not be fould to the east or west. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous. PD)).

quivering flashing object high and distant in the Northeast sky In the sky northeast of Fort Smith a long distance I am seeing a bright light high in the sky. At first I thought it was a star, but then I noticed it appears to be moving slightly from side to side. I got my binoculars and could see it is flashing with a red light being emitted.

It appears to be dragging something, though I really can't see the shape. It is not round like a star and it quivers. I generally do not believe in UFO's, but this thing sure doesn't look or act like a star.

((NUFORC Note: We suspect a twinkling star may have been the cause of the sighting. PD)).

Glowing clearlike color hovering over Lake Hamilton Was on the Mount Reonte and just chilling, talking and there is a airport in central hot springs. always small aircraft mainly private planes fly from there, but I kept my eye on this wierd color shaped like a doughnut, this wasn't no aircraft that I ever seen, my friends were with me and we starred at it a good 5 minutes, it just hovered not even 6,000 feet above ground, and we try to trace it but it. but then changed course and hover back near Lake Hamilton.

Couldn't explain the shape to well or light patterns, it was a radical color, never seen a color like it. almost glowed like a clear bubble. Don't know but I always hear strange stories on ufos in hot springs area.

Especially when going deer hunting near El Dorado. always see some type of light or wierd shaped object. If I was Hot springs residents I would keep a eye in the sky.

To whom this may concern and please take seriously, We could not contact or find a no. to call.While looking at the northen star on 10/22/03 noticed movement below it.

Also shaped like a star from the long distance we looked upon it we knew it wasn't.I'm sure you hear this all but this thing hovered,slowly then zipped back and forth and stopped momentarily and continued to do this for hours.Also it seemed to have something like a halo around it.

My partner said the light sometime changed to red and green.3 hours later i went out curious and it was still there but still slowly moving west like before.Then i noticed the other,directly to the east,doing exactly the same as the one i just described.

There were 2 of them.The second one not moving as rapidly as the first but still darting back and forth. It wasn't a plane and to my knowledge satellites don't hover and then zig zag all over and then hover again,this movement was far to rapid.

Was truly amazing to watch.

Saw an object flying higher and faster than anything I've seen before, travelling in a straight line I looked up and saw a silver/gray object moving ESE. It was much higher than I've ever seen a plane fly, there was no noise or contrail, and it was moving at an incredible rate of speed in a perfectly straight line. I was able to view it for 5 - 10 seconds and then it was gone.

From where I was, it looked like it flew over the Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport (XNA), so they might have caught it on radar. I thought maybe it was the ISS, but I don't know if that's visible to the naked eye during the day.

stationary blue/green orb quickly shot off to the South-Southwest I was returning to my home and as I made the turn onto my street, I saw a greenish/blue orb stationary for an instant.then shot off quickly Southwest out of my field of view. There was no contrail or any sort of residue trail in the sky.

I would have instantly thought it to be a meteor had it not been stationary.I thought it was a slow moving plane with landing lights on since there is an airport nearby in Jonesboro.

White lights race through the sky in clear daylight, fighters in persuit First saw bright tadpole light in perfectly clear sky speeding from north to south, from horizon to overhead in 15 seconds, well up in atmosphere. As it got overhead, it slowed and came to stop, then proceded to make maneuvers in loops, forwards and backwards, stopped again and then raced off east. About 5 minutes later 3 F-16s arrived and circled in attack formation for approximately 15 minutes.

Another 2 similar lights moved through the sky in similar patterns and directions over the next 2 hours after the first event.

about 2:45 am saturday morning, my boss and I were standing outside and talking. we saw a blue flash in the eastern sky that was similar to lightning, but it was blue and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. we both looked in that direction and about halfway in between the moon and the big dipper there was a squiggly line that was yellow and red and orange.

it almost looked like something that was moving in an erradic direction had exploded. the light dissapated after a few moments and were the lights were there appeared to be smoke, which also soon dissapated and we saw nothing after that. we thought that maybe a plane or the chinese rocket may have exploded, but dont know what it is that we saw.

did anybody else see this?.

Huge object spotted over Batesville Pike road in North Little Rock Arkansas It was a clear October night in North Little Rock Arkansas. It was between 8:00PM and 11:00PM my wife and I where taking a drive to catch some fresh air. As we made our way down Batesville Pike road we noticed a strange object approaching us very quickly.

There was a car in front of us that must have seen the same strange object as they pulled off to the shoulder about a car length ahead of us. My wife and I where just shocked and could not identify what was before our eyes. This thing (larger than a 747 from wing tip to wing tip) hovered about 20 or 30 feet above the ground right around some tree tops.

There where multiple (best guess 20) bright white lights along the front of this thing. The object then moved quickly across the road and hovered over a thick wooded area before the object changed shape and seemed to land or disappear into the woods below. My wife and I drove off trying to digest what we had just seen.

We drove about a mile down the road and decided to turn around and go investigate. When we returned to the spot nothing was out of the ordinary. My first instinct was to walk through the woods and see if I could find anything, but after having flash backs of (Fire in the sky) I decided against that.

Now with that said I'll tell you that North Little Rock Airport is less than 5 miles from the spot of the sighting. It's a small airport with only one runway but what we seen was not using the airport. I also wonder if what we seen was some sort of secret military project based on the fact that there's a military base less than 3 miles from the spot of the sighting.

When the object changed shapes and landed in the woods it landed on military owned property. So it could be one of the two 1) A secret military project or 2) A UFO ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate.
