Driving early AM in Avon Ct. I spotted an object fifty feet in the air as large as a house. I was driving back to where I was staying that night after dropping off a friend, I was driving up a road in Avon CT.

when I saw a bright light up ahead, I thought this was unusual for this time of night. I proceeded up the road and when I got to where the light basically was coming from there was no light present, I looked arond in curiousity and discoverd an object the size of a house hovering about fifty feet in the air, It was basically a half moon and visability was good, this object was very dark and large, there were no lights on and it made no noise what so ever. I parked my car in the middle of the road and left it running with the lights on hoping someone would come down the road to witness this as well.

I stood still in one spot staring at this object for about 5 min fearing what it would be capable of doing. I looked around and saw a house that had it's lights on so I ran over to it and knocked on the door, I waited for a couple of minutes but nobody answerd, I ran back to where my car was and the object was still there. I became so scared I jumped in my car and drove off quickly, as I went to the stop sign at the end of the road I looked up and the object had followed me all the way down the road, I turned to the left and saw the object was still following me, I floored the gas and never looked back again, it took me over a month to tell anyone else but eventually I told my parents, we ended up moving to an area basically right where this event occured and a neighbor saw the same thing almost one year to date later, she described the exact same event I witnessed.

Two Fireballs This is an incident that happened in August 1978. I am reporting it for record only. Approximately 1:00 AM my wife and I were driving home.

At the intersection of Corbin Ave. and Osgood Ave., we were turning the corner, and to my left I saw two glowing orbs falling directly downward from the sky.

One was red and the other green. We were about 100 yards from them. They were soon hidden behind some pine trees.

I drove quickly up Osgood which was a hill to see if I could see where they went. When we reached the top we saw the red orb fly at a fast rate of speed toward Hartford which is visible in the distance from that position. In approximately four seconds it was out of sight.

We did not see the green one. On the surface of the orbs I saw a lot of movement. It looked like the surface of the sun.

This may possibly be ball lightening. A few days later a relative said a friend of hers say the same things dropping from the sky the same time as I did but was not in a position to see either one fly off. I did not tell her I saw the same thing before that.

amazing diamond shape craft at low altitude seeminly moving too slow to stay aloft On a cold winter evening my friend and I were driving into Meriden Ct. from Cheshire, Ct. We were driving in a small sports car on River Rd.

near Red Bridge. I saw what I thought was the reflection of my shifter light on the windshield. I realized I was seeing something reflecting on the windshield from the outside.

I pulled over, stopped my car and opened the window. Just above the tops of the telephone poles was an enormous diamond shaped craft. It was so close I could see that the surface looked like the dull side of aluminium foil.

The underside had two bullet shaped ducts side by side with heat emitting from them. Maybe propulsion? No sound what so ever came from this craft. Around the perimeter was a redish/pink fuzzy difused light.

The craft was traveling very slow. I wondered how it was staying in the air. It followed large high tension wires toward Hubbard park and was gone.

Totally unforgetable. I hope to witness again. I honestly felt no fear, only awe.
