Sparkling ball of light, zoomed away at a speed I have never witnessed before. This is my second encounter with this ball of flashing light. The light was stationary in the air and was sparkling much brighter than a star for around a minute and a half, and then immediately shot up just a bit, and zoomed away into the clouds far away behind it.

I do have video.

Cylindrical shiny object descending Seen from a vast open parking lot in the Western sky: A cylindrical, shiny object moving slowly and downward from the West, moving downward and North. It seemed to be slowly hovering and descending towards East Haven, CT. The cylindrical shape had 4 "spikes", two on a horizontal plane and two vertical (one vertical in the middle of the cylinder and one vertical at the end of the cylinder).

One of the horizontal spikes had a blinking red light. It was buzzing faintly until it descended over the tree line.

From western sky a bright white light was observed meandering and hovering at a very low altitude over the water as it approached and flew over the shoreline. When viewed overhead, it appeared to be shaped like a cylinder with wings attached. One wing was tipped with a red light, while the other side had a green light.

The craft was humming audibly and proceeded to fly easterly towards North Branford, disappearing over the tree line. ((NUFORC Note: Witness provides no contact information. PD)).

Pulsating orb travels across the sky and was recorded. I was standing outside with my wife and daughter, when a pulsating orb traveled across the sky. Daughter said a “lantern” but was moving too fast for that – and it seemed to change shape later on.

Luckily, I have almost the whole event recorded on security camera. Absolutely not an airplane. It was mostly round in the beginning and pulsating orange.

Towards the end, it looked more triangular or like an orb with tails. It appeared to be below cloud cover so speed and distance can be estimated a bit better.

White orb over Branford, CT and moving in sky between stars, not behaving like airplane nor shooting star. We were stargazing with an iphone app when we noticed a circular ball of light, a light orb, that we assumed to be s planet moving somewhat quickly but quite far away. We couldnt capture video nor photo as it wouldnt show.

We watched it fly southeasterly in a linear and sometimes zigzag pattern. We live in a flight pattern area but it didn't fit the examples by direction, AND had only a white light, looking like the glow of a distant planet or a star orb rather than blinking airplane lights we are used to. The movement was also zig zagged at times.

It appeared to move between stars, north easterly then dropping southeasterly before disappearing suddenly. We watched, my daughter and I,in my backyard which faces a saltmarsh. We had been meditating then dabbling with playing CSETI tones when we witnessed this.

Long silver colored cylindrical shaped craft seen over Branford, CT The time of my sighting was approximately 17:40 hours EST on 3/14/2013 in Branford CT. I was standing at my front door which faces east towards the Thimble Islands. By chance I was looking out from the doorway when I spotted a long silver colored cylindrical shaped craft which was traveling south to north.

At first it was in the open air and then entered into a cloud bank. I ran in the house and grabbed my video camera and went back outside to get a better look. I focused on the craft which by now had emerged from the clouds.

What I witnessed was a long cylindrical craft with no markings, wings or a tail fin. I ran back into the house agin calling to Barbie Heid to come outside to see it. It was at this point that the craft changed its direction to a westerly heading.

I tried to film it through the trees but the trees blocked my viewing partially. I was fortunate enough to catch a few seconds of video footage of the craft which I would be glad to send you. I have to say with all honesty that the length of the craft was approximately the width of the sun from my viewing point in respect to its height, which was at cloud level.

Series of flashing colorful lights and then took off and vanished within a second. When I first saw it, it was 3 extremely bright white lights. It suddenly started flashing all different colors, green, white, blue, and purple.

Then another set of lights the same color appeared. We were unsure if it was all one aircraft or 2. In the blink of an eye it disappeared from sight.

Cigar shaped object hovering in the woods near major highway. I was driving on I-95 North in Connecticut near Branford. Off in the distance at the height of about a helicopter i saw a hovering cigar shaped object.

As i drove closer it stayed in the same location, I was driving at about 65 miles per hour. This object looks similar to one i have seen in the past in Rhode Island. Today on the local news there was a story on possible strange formations on a city green in New Haven which is close by to Branford.

Here is a link to the online article: http://www.wfsb.com/story/20533328/strange-formations-discovered-on-new-haven-green.

Incrediably fast object hovering then accelerating to tremendous speed, and then disappearing. I was in the left back-driver side of the car looking to the north of Connecticut,driving north on the highway from East to Branford. The sky was clear blue without a cloud in sight.

Noticing what I thought to be a commercial airliner I focused my sight to see what type of plane it was. As I steadied my gaze I realized the object wasn't moving but rather hovering, and as I looked closed there seemed to be not distinctive edges to the craft. I alerted my fellow passengers in the car in the car just so I didn't think my eyes were playing tricks on me.

As I looked closer the color of the craft appeared to be a white to faded chrome like color. The strangest part of the whole sighting though was that, as the other passengers int the car started to take more of a notice to the ship, it began to move very fast in a parallel direction with us. It was an unexplainable speed which I have never seen before in any man made vehicle.

Then without inclining or declining it just disappeared. I'm still dumbfounded as to what it could of been, I am much more intrigued into what it could of been.if anyone can help me with this post a response to it somehow on this site.

Thank You ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

Fast moving bright light observed over Branford Ct 12/7/2005 I was looking up in the sky around 6:30 pm on December 7th 2005 in Branford Ct. I saw a bright light cross the sky. It was not consistant with any shooting star I have ever seen.

It seemed much closer, near where planes would normally fly. The shape was round and the size was much wider than traditional aircraft. What struck me as odd was the speed it traveled and the fact that it made no sound.

It lasted for what I could see was about 2-3 seconds than went out of sight. I have seen a meteor burn in earths atmosphere which gives off a green glow. This was pure white light.

It was near the Branford airport, however the planes that I saw in the distance before and especially after the event seemed to be moving in slow motion in comparison.

Star became extremely bright, then dim again. Then moved off to the South. Sitting in a lawn chair fishing from the town pier, facing east.

What appeared to be a star all of the sudden became extremely bright and much, much bigger. This stationary brightness continued for several seconds and then it went back to star size again. At that time it began move off to the south.

It did not blink like a plane would. It traveled at the approximate speed that a jet would, although it seemed maybe a little faster. It disappeared high in the sky through the haze.
