Glowing lights above Kent CT at 1:00 am 05/21/19 Copy of Several UFOs filmed on my camera. Approximately 12:55 am on 5/21/19, I was almost asleep in bed when I heard Canada geese Flying above. Wondered why they were out at the time.
Sat by my window and looked toward Kent School which is a half block from the residence. Grabbed my camera and started filming. First time I actually got it on my camera!!! One on right kept disappearing and reappearing.
Filmed 2.5 minutes.

A sundown UFO sighting Was driving from Warren to Kent on Rt. 34. I started driving down mountain with someone behind me and no place to pull over.
Saw a white light near sundown with a pinkish trail behind craft. It was no plane or jet. Disappeared behind mountain to my left.

While driving, saw an unusually large bright triangular light in the distant sky; upon slowing, it appeared above as a grouping of bright lights. While driving on Route 341 between Kent, CT and Warren, CT, I noticed an unusually large and bright white light in the sky above a low-lying hill/mountain located to the north. The sky was still somewhat light from the daylight.
I continued to drive, glancing at the light for a few minutes, at which point I realized that it was too large to be a star and/or a planet (and probably still too early in the evening to even make out a star/planet). The light was shaped like a triangle with rounded corners, and there was a slight illumination around the outside. It was not moving, but stationery.
As I continued to drive, I pondered what it could possible be, thinking that it might be a weather balloon or perhaps a helicopter of some sort. I slowed my car to really focus in on it. And then just stopped.
All of sudden, it was directly above my car, clearly visable from the driver's side window. The movement from the distance was undiscernable, and as to whether I really saw movement or not is beyond me. The object that was above me was made up of maybe 10 or 11 very large bright white lights -- kind of like klieg lights -- maybe six of which arced around one side of it, and the others staggering away from the arc -- I believe these ones were a bit smaller.
Almost like an arrow with a rounded point. (It would be best to show it drawn.) The lights were so bright, that it was impossible to see what they were attached to.
It lingered above me in the sky. I turned off the radio and unrolled the window to see if I could hear anything. There was no sound.
Realizing that I was stopped in the middle of the road (dangerous), I continued on the road for about 15 seconds to the nearest intersection, where I pulled off and immediately got out of the car. Whatever it was that I had seen was no where to be seen. After studying the sky for a minute or so, I got back in the car and drove back in the direction I had come from to see if I could find it again.
Nothing. Continued on my way (stopping in the town of L! itchfiel d) to meet a friend of mine in Waterbury for the evening. While telling her about what I had seen, the color left her face.
During the afternoon, she had received a call (she thought it was around 3pm or 3:30pm) at the newspaper from a male who had witnessed a similar event with a friend while leaving the Home Depot. For natural reasons, this added validity to what I had experienced. This morning (Monday, January 10), I contacted the FAA, who directed me to the UFO reporting center.
If you would like to contact me, I have provided my work phone number (thus, a collect call would probably not go over real well.). I would be more than willing to speak to someone at my expense if a mutually agreeable time could be arranged.

Huge, soundless, V shaped craft seen in Kent,CT. After reading about others who have spotted a similar craft I thought I would mention this siting that took place when I was a Senior in High School. My roomate and I were coming back from a late night run and as we came back to campus we noticed an object moving from east to west near Mt.
Algo in Kent,CT. The object made absolutely no sound, it had 5 white lights underneath in a V shape, it moved extreemly slowly. Two other witnesses were present, a teacher and another student.
We were all just standing there staring at this thing as it slowly slipped behind Mt. Algo. The thing that seemed most strange to us was that it was HUGE and yet made no sound! ((NUFORC Note: We will attempt to have the witness have the other witnesses submit reports, as well.
PD)).

Very low flying object with spinning multicolors. Craft did not seem to spin and had fire coming from rear. Low muffled fire sound.
On a whim, I just visited the website "ufos in Connecticut" because I saw a news bit on tv about a recent British report declassification. I was amazed to see a listing of a sighting from 1969 that was just like what I experienced as a boy. It has been a long time but I remember it like this.
I was playing in the yard at night with three other children who lived in the house next door. This was in Kent in the 1970's and it was very rural and quiet there. It was a very still and clear night.
We were playing hide and seek and happened to be in a group in the center of the yard. I was about 12. The other boy, ((name deleted)), was my age and his twin sisters were about 10.
The yard is surrounded by dense trees so it is impossible to see more than 50 yards in any one direction. Basically, the only way to look any distance is staight up. We were standing there and a flying object came over so low I remember it was maybe a couple hundred yards higher than the tallest elm trees.
It was multicolored and disc shaped. The multicolors seemed to spin as if the disc was spinning. But I remember that just the colors were spinning.
The craft itself was not spinning and this was evident because flames were shooting out the back. Just like the short report I just read, it was very silent except for a deep muffled sound which sounding like flames burning. It flew right over the house and disappeared.
We ran inside to tell our parents, who were enjoying cocktails together. I remember my mother simply dismissing it as an airplane and we could not convince them of what we saw. I was very surprised to see the description from Bristol, Ct.
It was very similar to my experience.
