Full Report Text:
We were sitting outside and a triangle shaped craft came from the east and moved very slowly with flashing lights on the craft, and a beam of light directly under the craft, as if it were searching for something . It went slowly then suddenly disappeared from view. This happened as lightning flashes have been going off in the same southern portion of the sky, with no noise, for over an hour.
I also am experiencing strange objects coming from my skin and small unknown creatures scattering around our house at night between midnight and five a.m.

An out of the ordinary, fast-moving light moved in a zig zag pattern across the night sky and disappeared in a matter of seconds. July 2nd, 3rd or 4th, 2010. From a dock on the Connecticut shore a friend and I (60's, college educated, non-profit professionals) were looking up at the stars about 9 p.
m. as the twilight was disappearing and the sky was becoming increasingly dark. We were both looking at about "10-10:30 o’clock" out over Long Island Sound and simultaneously we caught sight of a very fast moving light that blinked and zigzagged and then disappeared.
It was probably in our visual field for no more than 3 seconds. It was quite out of the ordinary and we both commented on it at the same time. While similar in brightness to a high flying airplane or satellite, it didn’t resemble any airplane or satellite I’ve seen before.
And neither of us thought it was a shooting star. I’ve never seen an airplane or satellite or shooting star zigzag like this object did. Because it moved in a fast, but measured, geometric pattern it seemed much more like a mechanical object than a natural phenomenon like a comet or shooting star.
We saw it a couple of weeks ago and I am still thinking about it, wondering what it is we saw. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the event is approximate. PD)) ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

03/29/07 11:49am Thames River, New London, CT Strange light in the sky I was trying to take a picture of a sea bird in Thames River harbor, New London, ct. And at the moment I did not recall seeing or hearing anything in the sky. I was after I checked the pictures I took in my computer that I saw a weird light shaped object in only one of the pictures I took.
I don't know if it is something caused by sonlight in the camera's lense. But it surely looks very interesting. This is why I decided to send it tobe examined by experts.

3 to 4 foot creature in my room 3 to 4 foot alien creature in my room when I turned on the light switch I was young at the time like 11 years old but I know when I am awake. I woke up going to use the bathroom for I was a bed wetter but at that moment I just froze up in fear. The alien creature was afraid also and neither of us made a sound I just turned off the light to my room and I went back to sleep knowing these is something I will never be believed.
The alien looked half human like with a big head but thin body I was only 4 feet away from it the encounter was about a minute or so. I know I cannot identify myself but this has bothered me for years and I went into the computer science field because of this moment in life.
