Three bright lights in the shape of a triangle in the night sky that dissapeared one by one. I looked up and saw three bright white dots that looked like extremely bright stars in the shape of a triangle. They stayed in their formation but one by one they got dimmer and faded away until they were all gone.

Driving home on Ratley road in West Suffield, my husband and I saw on the left side of the road in a field 3 large triangle objects with orange lights. They were hovering about 100 feet from the ground, DEAD SILENT-and as we kept driving down the road they increased in height and headed North West. I had an instant gratification of fear, for I have never encountered such a suspicious craft.
It looked like a SIFI movie.

Triangle shaped craft over West Suffield I was outside because the bear knocked over my trash cans. There is a large horizon where I can see 300 degrees on the back side of my house. I saw something triangular with three lights near each corner and it moved slowly across the horizon on an ark.
I saw it from about 5 miles away in the sky. It did not look like any plane I have ever seen in the night sky.

LAYING IN BED LOOKING OUT WINDOW AND SAW A BRIGHT FLASH TRAILING FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST. IT APPEARED GREENISH IN COLOR TO ME, I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS SHOOTING STARS AND THIS WAS A DIFFERENT COLOR THAN I HAVE EVER SEEN.

I am a 19 yr old college student who was in my room on 2nd floor, when I heard my mother yelling if I wanted to see something cool to run outside and look to the left. I went outside, expecting to see a animal or something, but she told me to look up and I saw 3 orange lights in a formation coming to a stop moving west to east. Then I saw one start moving in quick little movements then it stopped then the other one started to do the same then they all disappeared into the distance moving north.
After I went to the internet and googled strange orange lights and saw pics of what looked like what I saw. ((NUFORC Note: Please see other report from West Suffield for a sighting of the same objects. PD)).

When letting my dog out approx 8:45pm, I was checking out the stars, when I turned around and saw 5 large bright orange lights flying in weird formation, 3 on top row, and two on bottom row, but not perfect, making 2 triangles moving from left (WEST) to right (EAST) in complete silence for a couple minutes. They moved loosely changing formations. Definitely not planes or helicopters, as I see airport traffic all the time.
They moved fast at first slowed down and stopped, I ran inside to call my 19yr old son & grab my cell phone. When I came out of house with my cell phone, I saw 2 which were smaller, due to having moved to a further proximity now and more red in color now moving left to right they stopped and then seemed to wiggle and went straight away (NORTH) from us extremely fast & got very small & disappeared in seconds.

flying saucer makes touchdown then flees the scene I was over a friend's house yesterday. We were drinking a little and just having a good time at his place in west Suffield CT. When we both stepped outside for whatever reason at the time and saw what appeared to be a great orb of light at first.
It was apparent that this was not an airplane because it was not moving. It just remained still for about 30 sec then suddenly started to jump in random spots in about a .5 mile radius from its original spot.
Then as crazy as it sounds I could actually make out the shape of the craft. Classic old sci-fi movie flying saucer is what it appeared to look like with a system of lights around the circular edge. What really freaked me out is when I looked even closer and could make out what appeared to be what some call a (touchdown).
But the beam of light coming from the bottom of the craft wasn't light at all. It blended in with the sky and I could only see the edge of it. When suddenly the beam of whatever it was disappeared and the crafts lights flashes starting with one bulb and went around the saucer ending with a single red flash from a bulb.
That red flash was the last I saw from the craft as it quickly disappeared into the sky. I don't know what that thing was but I am just curious if me and my friend are the only ones who saw this craft that night. ((NUFORC Note: At the time the witness telephoned our Hotline, we questioned whether the call was a serious one.
We could detect sounds in the background, which suggested to us that the call might be yet another of the many prank calls our Center receives, on a regular basis. If we are wrong in our assessment of the call, we apologize to the witness, but we had reason to believe that the call was not serious-minded. PD)).
