All Reported UFO Sightings in Winsted, Connecticut

Full Report Text:

My friend and I saw 3 different UFO's, the most noticeable was a blue one that interacted with headlight flashes. I was Skywatching at Highland Lake with a friend of mine around 8:15PM. I was still enroute to the lake when I got the sudden urge to speed up a little as if I was going to miss something.

We turned a corner to face the lake, when we saw a bright white light above the mountain line. As I drove closer to the lake, it disappeared. That was sighting #1.

Sighting #2 was a tiny flashing green and red object, above the mountain line at a different location. That wasn't really anything too "special". The 3rd UFO almost looked like a blue star, however, it moved rather oddly.

It would go from one spot to another very very smoothly, and stop suddenly, yet smoothly. When zoomed in, it looked like a flying saucer that was angled at an almost 90 degree angle, as you'll see in the pictures. I was suggested to flash my high-beams in my vehicle, and when I did, the UFO moved very rapidly, although it was a short distance.

This happened multiple times when I flashed my lights. Not once did it make any noise. We observed this UFO for about an hour before we decided to leave.

Winsted UFO sighting I spotted two bright orange balls moving south from Norfolk to over the center of Winsted, I took out my phone to record, and they turned due north rapidly. They were not traveling fast, but erratic. And once they got behind the tree line, they sped up to where they were out of sight in seconds.

I have a minute video of the event. And when we I looked up orange UFO sightings on the internet, the images were exactly what I saw. Weird stuff.

Could they have been droids? One never knows, but the speed and range, they would of had to be sophisticated. Also, they made no sounds what so ever.

Anomalous behavior of anomalous bright lights. On the evening of 9/9/14, I was at a house in Winsted, CT. I was there in a professional capacity, and am not at liberty to disclose information on the house or its resident(s).

At 7:15 pm, to close approximation, I was sitting in a chair on the front porch, smoking a cigarette. I was facing due west. The sky was overcast, low-lying cumulous.

From a point on the natural horizon (forested hill), west by south-west, I saw an object with the appearance of a fireball-type meteor, i.e. “burning,” orange-color, about an order of magnitude brighter than Venus.

It ascended at apparent high velocity from the horizon, dead vertical. I initially thought it was a firework. It ascended at constant velocity to approximately 40 degrees celestial latitude.

Then it stopped and had no motion, as though it had contacted a solid obstacle. This is to say that its velocity instantly ceased. It then had the appearance of a star in the sky, except that it was brighter than Venus, as stated.

It was below the solid cloud deck. It illuminated the cloud deck, as though its radiance was omnidirectional, at least on hemispherical coordinates. This sequence of events repeated til I lost count.

I approximate the total number of objects as, three dozen. When several of the objects had ascended, they formed an asymmetrical grouping, maybe five to fifteen minutes of arc separate. When several (the number was different each time) were collected, the grouping ascended up into the cloud deck, cohesively, and faded from sight per the opaqueness of the clouds.

There were approximately six such groupings and ascensions. While gathered in these groupings, which resembled tight constellations of exceedingly bright stars, as if “waiting for the next one” (teleology inferred), these objects sometimes separated into two or three components. Sometimes one component would circle the other, or others, which remained stationary,then apparently rejoin and reintegrate back into a single object.

Several times one object moved or was ejected from the grouping, at apparent high speed, one to several degrees of arc laterally. It then reversed direction instantaneously, like a ball deflecting off a wall, to instantly stop at its original location. The luminosity of all these objects never varied, except when several times they seemed to show internal structure, as of two or more of them fixed to a nonluminous body or frame, not inconsistent with the several lights fixed to an aircraft.

This differentiation was at threshold visibility, on the order of 15 or 30 arc seconds. One time, and one time only, the differentiated light detached itself from the presumed structure of the object, circled the object and returned to its original place, before this differentiation ceased and the object again appeared as a unitary “fireball”. This entire phenomenon was soundless.

There was no engine noise, or propeller chop, or any sound from this event at all. The phenomenon ceased at 8:00 pm, to very close approximation. The phenomenon was witnessed initially by myself alone, then by a resident of the house.

About halfway through this event, a neighbor walked by, and I called out to him to come observe it. He then went and came back with his wife. The four of us together witnessed the last twenty minutes or so of the event.

So far as the subjective, human aspect of this event, there was unanimous bewilderment, astonishment and incomprehension. I know of no airfields or military bases in that direction to, with certainty, the New York State border; I do not know with certainty of any airfields or bases in that direction whatsoever, albeit at some distance they undoubtedly exist. Because the ascension of the objects was dead vertical, and there was no variation in the luminosity of the objects, I assume the distance of their apparent origin from my location was equal to the elevation of the cloud deck, whatever that was at that time, divided by the declination of the region of the cloud deck where they vanished, which would be to say ~9/4 the elevation of the cloud deck.

If called upon to guess, then if the cloud deck was ~2000 m high, the apparent origin was 4 or 5 km distant. I know that to be an area of state forest and farmland. At the beginning of this event, many coyotes at different locations began howling and wailing, and continued doing this until the end of the event, when they all simultaneously ceased.

By 8:00 pm, conditions were as normal. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Dear Sir, Last night, 9/9/14, I submitted a report about an event that occurred a couple hours prior, in Winsted, CT. I tried to be as factual and precise as I could.

But reviewing that report, I see I was sufficiently disraught to forget my high school geometry. Given the altitude of cloud deck, whatever that was, and what I reckoned a point at somewhat less than a vertical right angle, the distance from my location to the apparent origin would have been equal to, or slightly more than, the altitude of the cloud deck. I feel that this event was important.

I hope that my report will not be rejected because of my error, but that this correction can be made to the report. I apologize for any convenience. ((END ADDENDUM)).

Multiple unidentifiable triangular flying objects MY brother and I were sitting up at Winchester Lake talking when we noticed a bright light about 100 feet above the tree line. We watched it for about 40 minutes, within this time it has gone up and down, left and right, zig zag and while it was stationary it looked as though it was dropping things, then it went up a couple hundred feet and disapeared. We know that it wasn't an airplane because they don't move like that and we saw 2 airplanes while we were watching this thing.

Maybe 15 minutes after it disapeared a really bright light came out from above the trees. It stayed there for about 30 seconds then started moving to the right, where it disapeared, reapeared, and disapeared over a field and in a flash it was gone. Then, in 15 minute increments, 1 appeared and went to the left and disapeared, then another triangular with lights on each point came out of nowhere and went off to the right.

I felt really scared and i was kind of freaking out because i've never seen anything like this before in my life. ((NUFORC Note: Student report. PD)).

Lighted circular objects moving silently across the sky Noticed a strange light hovering across the lake where we live. Looking through binoculars, there were several points of light that seemed to be pulsating around a circular object. It looked kind of like a ferris wheel.

There seemed to be a few of these across the sky, and the lights were more green or orange than regular stars. The main craft moved back and forth across the sky very quickly, without making any noise. Sometimes it would leave for a few hours, only to return to the same point across the lake from our cottage.

The other objects also moved around the sky, but seemed farther away. This happened three nights in a row. ((NUFORC Note: Source indicates that date of event is approximate.

PD)).

Bright blue sphere traveling incredibly fast. I was traveling north bound on rt 8 with my fiancé. The object was bright blue twice the size of the north star and twice as bright.

The object was circular in shape also very smooth. We spotted it 1/4 - 1/2 of a mile north west of our present location. The object dropped down from the sky at around 500 ft.

It then dropped at a 45 degree angle to about 300 ft it then followed a straight line at an incredible speed then abruptly disappeared before it went over the horizon.No sound was heard and no trail of light was left. The whole event lasted less than 5 seconds.

the speed the contrail and the shape were nothing i ever seen before.and no sound me and my wife have been on vacation since sunday,april 15 and all it did was rain for a week, so this was our first day out of our prison.the day was perfect with just a few clouds in the sky and it must be 75 degrees .

any ways we proceded to sun bathe in the driveway.the first craft i saw i realy didnt see,but what i did see was a single exhaust apear in front of my eyes ,very quilly and then it turned into a string of pearls or a loop---------loop--------and another loop and so on.i went inside and got my binocullars just in case .

5 min later it appeared again .i have not ever seen anything go that fast,it made it from one herrisone to the next in a matter of 3 seconds.the craft seemed to be a tear drop shape and very reflective .

again i could not believe the speed of this craft. thanks ((name and e-address deleted)) also there was no sound that i could here,i tried but didnt here nothing .

we take the dogs out every morning at 4 am. this morning we were comming back to the house when i notice a star like object flying low over main st winsted. at first i thought it was a helicopter because of its slow moveing and back and forth motion.

the object got my attention when it hovered for a short time then took of strate up . the object made no noise and was about 1000 ft in altitude.its shape was disk .

the sun was just riseing and i could see its outline up against the sky line. thanks dean.

The caller went outside to walk his dog and look at the comet. He looked to the east, and he noticed movement in the night sky. Upon looking closely at the object, he noticed that it was 7-9 lights (est.

), oriented in a "boomerang" shape. The lights were orange in color, and they were very faint, fainter than typical stars, for example. The object moved very fast from the eastern sky to the northwest sky, traversing approximately 120-130 degrees (est.

) of arc in approximately 5 seconds. No sound was apparent. The caller does not have internet access.
