Slow moving red and yellow objects. My wife and I saw two red and yellow objects moving very slowing, high in the sky. They were larger than any star or planet from our vantage point.

Neither of us have ever seen anything like it. At one point they seem to move away from us and then they slowly disappeared. I've no explanation for it.

Intensely flashing light stationary at first for 30 or 40 seconds then began to move south/west at a steady pace then blinked out. I was standing on the platform facing roughly west/northwest in the Copps Hill plaza on route 35 and observed an intensely flashing light hovering over the hill at about the height of what could be an airplane beacon. There is a nearby municipal airport and so such a light might easily be overlooked.

As I watched the light for 30 or 40 seconds(it was flashing an intense array of red, green, white, silvery, and blue) it eventually dimmed over the course of about 3 seconds and began to flash just reddish-yellow, and after another 2 or 3 seconds began to move at a steady pace towards what I assume to be the south or southwest of its position, eventually disappearing behind a far hill in the distance in Westchester County, New York State. I have observed many such lights over the years, always in the west over the hills of Westchester and Putnum counties and always with a similar pattern. The lights will always be completely stationary and intensely flashing man! y colors, then either blink out of existence abruptly or after glowing just one color(usually red), or over the course of perhaps half a second the light will suddenly zoom off and disappear in a short arc in the shape of a parabola (like x squared from the origin to like x=4, that shape) and I stress they are always relatively low over the western hills where someone that isn't watching could easily overlook.

((ADDENDUM FROM SOURCE OF REPORT)) Yes I realized afterward that the date I posted that was the 18th and not the 24th. The date on my friend's computer was about a week off for some odd reason. The date of the sighting was the Sunday, January 16, 2011, the most recent Sunday.

Thank you for inquiring and not simply disregarding the posting. ((END ADDENDUM)).

triangular ufo flew overhead I was walking outside on my grandfather's farm and noticed how deathly silent it was. Normally it was full of animal noises, but this night it wasn't. I looked up at the stars and was extremely surprised to see a triangle flying overhead! As it slowly flew above me, time seemed to stay still.

When it disappeared over the tree tops I ran to tell my grandfather but he didn't believe me and he hadnt seen it. The triangle UFO was black and had lights around the edges. It seemed to be the size of a commercial airliner.

Massive circular object hovering in the night sky, year 1985. Witnesses: Male 18 years old Female 14 years old I was sitting on a window bench seat with my back to the window and felt a strange sensation like a light was shining in on me. I turned around and witnessed the UFO the person I was speaking to saw my face and new something was strange.

I said look out side what is that she was in shock also. We both became pretty excited. We just could not explain the object.

We both got up and ran down the stairs and opened the front doors and out into the yard. That’s when it became kind of scary.this thing didn’t go away and it was really there.

It was massive hovering about 100 to 200 feet above our front yard. It was a circular object on its side just sitting in the sky there was a pulsating glow around the edge of the object I don’t know if it was lights or just energy but it was amazing to me because for such a huge object there was almost no sound. The only sound was a humming pattern but not anything I have heard before like it was in your body.

The time becomes hard to explain when your adrenalin kicks in but when we both looked at each other and new it wasn’t going away we yelled for our family to come and witness it also. When the family got to the front door. This massive object created a cloud and slowly rolled behind it.

Never to be seen again.

Saw individuals that were not human. This occured at what was then the Casagmo Apartments in Ridgefield (1976) My (ex)wife and I were asleep - it was early Spring and the large sliding window was partly open (an inch or two). A loud buzzing noise woke me (I remember covering my head with a pillow).

I realized that the buzzing seemed to come from inside my head. I went to the window and saw what I thought were 3 electrical company employees (linesmen) at the far side of the parking lot (less than 100 feet from my view). I thought they were electrical linesmen because they had their backs to me and appeared to be wearing hard hats (vey shiny hard hats that looked like chrome).

Each was dressed oddly (I say this because they appeared to be wearing dark "wet suits". Each looked to have on "mittens" as I saw only a "thumb" and what looked to be a mitten like glove. Each of the individuals looked to be 5 feet tall or less.

I said quietly to my wife "what the hell are these idiots doing out there in the middle of the night?" The 3 were clearly visible because they were illuminated by an overhead light source. One "individual" was looking up into the tree line, another was looking very intently at the ground and the third was looking around almost as if keeping a watch. I continued standing at the window behind a very large, potted philodendron plant that we kept in the bedroom.

The three individuals suddenly turned as if they were given a command (right face) and faced directly at the window where I was standing. (Please understand that the bedroom was on the second floor and we had not turned on any lights nor made any noise to attract attention - the buzzing was still quite loud at this point). I felt immediately uncomfortable and crouched down behind the plant.

As the individuals turned toward me, it appeared that one of them had a reflective stripe running down his pant leg (much like the satin stripe on tuxedo trousers). The helmets were no longer visible from the front (only slightly around the perimeter of their heads - for lack of a better description - like an ancient Egyptian headdress). They had unusually large reflective goggles over their eyes (or unusually large reflective eyes).

I asked my (ex)wife to please take a look. She got out of bed and came to the window. My recollection is that the 3 individuals then turned to their right again (all at the same moment).

They all walked as if they were in a strobe light. Two went out of my field of vision (behind the maitenance garage in the parking lot) and one simply "disappeared" from the open field. The overhead light and the buzzing stoppeed at the moment the last individual "disappeared".

I did not tell my Ex what I saw but asked her what she had seen. Her description to me was the same as what I witnessed. She, however, described them as walking away in "slow motion" and she was also unclear as to what happened to the third individual.

We went back to bed. The night was clear prior to the incident but it did rain after the incident. In the morning, I went out behind the garage to see if there were a light source.

There was a fixture but it had not spot light bulbs in it. There were no marks on the ground. I saw no craft and maitained that if it had gone forward, backward or up I would have seen it so it could only have gone into the ground.

I mentioned the incident only to my closest friend who insisted that I get the number for UFO Locater and call them to report it. After 2 weeks, I relented and went to the Ridgefield police and got the UFO Locator 800 number from them. I reported the incident to Locator and asked if anyone else had seen or reported anything unusual that night.

They told me that there had been 26 reports for that same night from Katoonah, NY to Danbury, CT (along the power grid and fault line - which I never knew existed). They subsequently called to interview me about the sighting. When I told them the craft could only have gone "down into the ground or I would have seen it" they asked me if I thought that it could have gone to another dimension or time.

I had not considered that possibility and said so. The memory is still vivid after nearly 27 years. It was suggested to me that I submit to hypnosis to see if I could recall more.

I did in 1981 and had kept a copy of the tape that was made. I heard myself yelling about the individuals looking closely into my face - yelling about their eyes and yelling for help because I was outside of my apartment. I have rarely shared this information with anyone.

My Ex Wife refused to talk about it. ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate. PD)).

Translocation and "knowing" I could fly onto elevated deck. One early morning in either 1968 or 1969, when I was about seven years old, I woke up at about 6 o'clock in a different location. I was on the couch downstairs in the living room, covered up with a blanket that my mother always kept there.

Thinking my parents had decided to paint our bedroom, and had therefore moved me and my brother in our sleep, I curiously went back upstairs, and found my brother sleeping away in his own bed. My bed had obviously been slept in part of the night, and the room was unpainted. I had never sleep-walked before then, nor have I ever done so since then.

I determined to get to the bottom of this mystery, so I made a point to "interview" each of my four older sisters, to see which one of them had played this trick on me. None ever admitted to such a prank. At about the same time, I have another memory which in retrospect may be related to the couch incident.

I remember being outside in the backyard, looking up at our deck, which was built directly off the living room, and "knowing" that I could fly onto and off of, that deck. It was more than a simple wish -- it was a conviction. The deck was some seven or eight feet off the ground, which sloped away from the back of the house.

So adamant was I of my conviction, that I got a piece of rope (old clothesline, I think), tied it onto a kitchen chair, and wedged that chair into one corner of the deck. Don't ask me why I did it this way, but that's the way I did it. Once this was done, I slid down the rope to the ground, burning my hands in the process.

I had never heard of a flying saucer or UFO at this time, much less the apparent abduction phenomenon. ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate. PD)).
