Full Report Text:
I am a stay at home mom, who has never paid much attention to UFO's. Last Friday, my kids were still asleep in bed, when I awoke at 6 am. I was in the bathroom and it was completely dark outside.
All the sudden I noticed a bright light shining in through a large window. The light was travelling slowly across the bathroom floor, which has 3 large windows in it. I noticed it immediately, as we live deep in the forest, far away from neighbors.
Our house is located on 8 acres of forested land, and the bathroom is on the second floor. I walked over to the window and looked up, and to my utter shock and amazement, I saw a gigantic rectangular shape moving slowly just above the tree line. The window was open, and I heard a low humming noise coming from it.
I was awestruck as I tried to make sense of what I was witnessing. The craft was as large as a 747 airplane in length, as it slowly passed by. I couldn't see any of the sides or the top as it was so low down and close to our home, less then 50 feet from the house.
I could only see the bottom, which was filled with rows of red and white lights. There were 3 rows of glowing illuminated white round lights the whole length of the craft on each side, for a total of 6 rows. In between the white rows of lights were 2 rows of red glowing lights.
The lights were dim, similar to car headlights pulling up in front of the house at night, but were clearly round shaped. It was only one single craft, and due to its size and low flight above our home, it blocked out the night sky as it hovered slowly past. I was frozen in the spot, and didn't even think to run and try to capture the image on my phone, which wasn't on me.
At each of the four corners were red blinking lights. The shape was definitely flat and rectangular, like nothing I have ever seen in my life. The craft glided by for about 60 long seconds, and slowly drifted out of my line of sight, over the trees.
As it got further away, the lights turned to look bluish, and I could no longer see the detail of the round lights. I called my husband right away, as he had already left for work, and then I called to report it to the local police, who had not received any other calls and didn't know how to respond. I was very scared to witness this, and am still having a hard time coming to terms with it.
I know it was much too large to be a drone of any type, and all other indications about its shape, sound, height, and movement prevent me from believing it was anything identifiable as man made. ((NUFORC Note: We spoke via telephone with both the wife and husband, and both of them seemed to us to be responsible, sober-minded people. We strongly suspect that the wife's account above is accurate, and a sincere account of a strange event.
PD)).

A slow moving and hovering triangular shaped object with multiple bright white lights and one red light On Jan 3 at 2340 I was traveling on south bound on Terry Plains Road in Simsbury and saw a low flying triangular object hovering along the ridge line then it moved slowly north. I lost sight of the object in the trees so I turned my car around and proceeded to follow the path of it. In a clearing after the trees I saw it again just hovering and proceeded to travel slowly north.
It had multiple white lights with one red light.

Fire. Simsbury. Radiation.
UFO? No animals, no plants. Fire put out on mountain near Northgate Road, Simsbury, by fire department. Do not believe it was lightning, and I know no one would go up there.
I am surprised they were even able to locate it, let alone detect this fire due to its location. It is a long hike to the spot where this occurred. Possible UFO with gamma radiation - no animals or vegetation in the immediate area and surroundings.

UFO Engineering Blueprint Scam Internet This is very basic, probably a hoax. While google searching for ufo reports, I randomly intercepted a document which appeared to be a classified diagram of a space ship layout. I will not reveal what agency stamped this.
I viewed the page for about a minute. It was an engineering blueprint. I tried to reload the page to see if it was false, and I could not get the page to reappear.
It was if it had vanished. It was so out of the blue I could not believe what I had witnessed. This was roughly around September 06, 2006.
Though this is an estimate, it was a while ago. I still have not forgotten this event. In all truth it may have been a scam.
It has not happened since. ((NUFORC Note: One of many reports submitted by the same source, who elects to remain totally anonymous, and who provides no contact information. Probable hoax?? PD)).

Light moon shine glow woods Old Farms swamp. These dates may not be approximate. I believe on the evening of June 15 2005 around midnight I awoke from sleeping to the view of bright “ moon shine” coming from the woods into the basement window.
I may have checked the sliding door to make sure it was locked, I may have been sleepwalking. I may have hit myself to make sure I was awake. I can’t say that I went into the woods behind our house to investigate, though I remember complaining about two small “bug-bites” on my stomachs side (I think this is were it was) to my sister.
Beyond this I can not determine events real or imagination. The entire event was very hazy and surreal, though I believe I checked to make sure I was really awake and not in a vivid dream. I do remember a dream I had previously of a space ship in the woods around the time of November 10 1997, date not approximate.
This spaceship was in the mountain passages in the Old Farms area. This I was sure was a dream though. This moon like glow occurred near the Old Farms swamp area.
I do not know if these two subjects are related at all beyond the same area where I experienced them. I think the spaceship dream was related to science fiction media. It was a very white light that seemed to be glowing from the woods towards the house, and nothing more that I can determine.
These events all occurred near Old Farms swamp in Simsbury CT. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

A white, beluga whale shaped object about a third the size of a small plane flew from horizon to horizon in 3 mintutes. It was a beluga-whale shaped, white, ship that flew from northeast to southwest over Softball Field 6 at Memorial Field in Simsbury. There was woods around the field, and behind the woods was a school.
It was a clear day with no clouds and flew from horizon to horizon in about 3 mintutes. It flew faster than a cloud but slower than a plane. There was a small breeze, but not enough to propel it.
It was about a third the size of a small, three-person plane. (not commercial)It made no noise whatsoever and that was how you could tell it wasn't a plane. ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate.
Witnesses elect to remain semi-anonymous. PD)).
