multiple triangular aircraft, white red and orange lights. low flying, super quiet, not fast outside on porch @ 00:15 smoking observed craft flying from west to east, over corydon, indiana. crafts were triangular in shape.

observed red, white, orange lights. red nose light, white rear left/right lights triangle pattern of 3 white lights on underside of craft, near rear, centered one blinking white and one orange light, alternating the orange light was centered inside the triangle pattern of white lights the blinking white light was outside of the triangle pattern of white lights, lower than the uppermost white light of the triangle pattern of 3, appears to be placed in a position that is the middle point between two of the three lights in the triangle pattern. the clouds overhead were low, appx 1200 feet (observable from porch is a distant radio tower or cellular tower with blinking red light, estimated at 300ft tall, on hill top across valley from observation location) craft was flying west to east, guessing craft was headed to fort knox, but not able to verify in any way.

craft was flying below cloud deck, but higher than radio antennae on distant hill. craft was very quiet, moved much slower than "commercial" airliners. dark triangle was very easily observable against greyish cloudy sky.

wife observed multiple craft of exact same type with me. had cell phone with me, lost all signal as craft approached. did not record video.

did not record photos. light pattern i am unable to find any match for any commercial air craft or known stealth craft. also observed "headlight" of craft when it was at distance, appx 2 miles.

front projecting "headlight" made typical triangle projection of bright headlights, cut cery clearly through cloud/darkness appx 300ft in front of craft. observed head light turned off and on. no idea what craft was.

lights on underside appear to be very "human" in origin. no idea what craft was. i was slightly frightened by what i observed, as i have never seen craft of this kind being flown.

appx height of craft flying -2500 ft above ground. estimated speed of craft: 300-500mph audible sound: slight, almost inaudible air disruption, could not hear engines or turbo fans of any type, only slight air turbulance. hope to observe again.

observed 4 in total from 00:20 - 00:40.

I saw what looked like to be two super bright huge stars fly towards each other, then circle & collide with each other VERY fast. My brother and I were driving north on State Road 15 towards Goshen, Indiana at approximately 6 pm on Sunday, December 11, 2011. As I was driving, my brother, who was in the passenger seat, looks out the window towards the east.

He commented that there were two planes flying towards each other. Then he yelled that they were about to hit. I lean forward as I’m driving and look up just in time to see what looked like to be two super bright huge stars flying towards each other.

All of a sudden they began sort of colliding and going in really fast circles around each other. It lasted maybe 10 seconds. As we turned left, going east onto County Road 42, they flew back away from each other and stayed stationary in the sky.

I put my flashers on and pulled to the side of the road. A random person coming the other way stopped to see if we were alright. I said yes and they continued driving.

I got out of the car and looked up and they were still, as if they were planets. We kept an eye on them the whole time we were out and until we got home.

two big white balls of light flying at high speeds at each other then spun around each other really fast. My sister and I were driving North on State Road 15 a couple miles north of New Paris, Indiana. I was in the passenger's side and I looked out the window towards the East.

Then I looked up and see two bright objects that were going really fast towards each other. I told my sister "they're about to collide!" She then looks out and sees them about to collide too. Then right before they hit they turned really fast and started spinning around each other.

We turned East on County Road 42 and pulled the car over at 6:01 eastern standard time and called my mom to report it. We looked out the window as I was talking to my mom and they fly apart and they started to hover. When they were hovering they looked like big bright stars or big balls of light, as if you were looking at a planet (smaller than the moon but bigger than a star and really bright).

We sat there for about a minute before pulling away but we were still watching them hover. We watched them for about 5 minutes more before we pulled over again. We then got out of the car and took some pictures on my sister's phone.

We then got some pizza for dinner and went home. We then went inside and told our parents. We went back outside and looked into the sky.

We showed our parents where we thought there was one UFO still there, we couldn't find the other one. After eating and talking about it, my mom said we could go out to the airport and see if anything has been reported. So we get back into the car and drive back on 15 going north and turn east onto county road 42 again following the same path as before.

We showed her where we pulled over and then drove on to the airport nearby. The airport was closed so we went to where the sheriff's dept had been but there was no one to talk to there either. So we drove home and when we got back, both lights were gone.

I then called the National UFO reporting center and reported it.

bright lights in the sky hovering for over hours. I couldn't sleep so I was looking out the window to c if there were any deer in my yard. I look up at the sky and notcied some green, yellow, and red lights.

I thought I was a plane passing. I looked out and hour later and the craft was still there. I woke my mate up to look and he said it was probly a plane.

I said it's not moving very much. He said give it about 15 min and I'll go outside to see. It was still there, so he went outside and seen lights, he said it was very slow moving but couldn't see what it was.

I kept looking outside I can still see the lights, and it's been over 2 hours so I know it's not a plane, and the lights are going in a circle. I was really scared and just watching it. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to provide no contact information.

PD)) ((NUFORC Note: We suspect a star or planet. Probably not a genuine UFO. PD)).

Large, hovering, triangular shaped object(s) in New Albany, Indiana. I am very reluctant to post this. I checked the internet just now and so far, nothing on the news.

I was driving West on 256 just past I-65. I realize this was relatively close to the Clark Co. airport, but at this height 40-60 feet it would have been crashing and either much too large or much to close to one another.

It was not moving. I rolled down the window and slowed to nearly a stop to look and listen. It/they were completely silent, triangular shaped, and 40 feet in length from lights at the points.

Lights were orange in color. What is strange is the fact that just moments before on the North side of 265, just past 65 in Clark County I had seen an extremely bright, white light near the trailer park approximately the size of an Olympic swimming pool (but round in shape) that came from nowhere, lasted maybe three seconds and went out like a switch was flipped. I pulled over at the Charlestown Road exit to get a look and the hovering object(s) had vanished.

I know at least four other cars in front of me saw it too, they slowed down and I could even see a passenger in one car point at it as if to ask, "Do you see that too?" I am quite shaken, and a little sick to my stomach. This wasn't anything remotely resembling any 'normal' aircraft in shape and wasn't like any plane or a helicopter I have ever seen. Approximately 30 seconds before the events, the radio broadcast of the Big Ten Championship game that I was listening too cut out.

I thought it was a broadcast error and turned off the radio. I didn't turn the radio back on for several minutes after the event. The broadcast was back on.

I am a male. Mid thirties. Caucasian.

Married. Children. College educated.

Employed. I don't care about any kind of recognition, in fact I would prefer none. But I would love an explanation of what I just saw.

I will answer questions if you need more info.

1 orb hovering in sky and exploding in a ball of blue light before disappearing. On December 2nd, 2011in Muncie, Indiana at around 11:00pm I witnessed what I believe to be a Extra Terrestrial space craft fly across the sky at a tremendous speed then erupting into a ball of light and vanishing. I was not able to get any pictures or video because the encounter was so quick if I would have hesitated to look up into the sky I would have missed it.

Earlier that day I had an intense feeling of being watched. It felt almost as if there was someone watching my every move through out the day. As I drove down the highway from Northern Indiana back down to Muncie I had noticed a blue orb hovering in the sky.

At first I thought nothing of it thinking it was just a nearby radio tower or an airplane. As time progressed I kept looking up to see if it was still there and it was. Suddenly the orb started to move erratically in the sky and the light had gotten brighter and brighter the faster it moved.

All of the sudden it shot forward in tremendous speed behind a cloud and all I could see after that was a large explosion of blue light. I have not seen the Space Craft since or had the feeling of being watched. The orb sat there hovering in the sky around 1 hour before darting off in 30 seconds or less.

Full Report Text:

Large triangular shaped object with 3 white lights and 1 blinking red light flew directly over us at very low speed and altitude. We were walking to our house and looked up to see a very large triangular shaped object directly overhead. It had three white lights on it's underside and one blinking red light on the back.

It was almost silent and was flying very low at a tremendously slow speed. It looked very flat and. I could not believe how slow it was moving.

It took between 10 to 15 minutes to get out of sight. It was moving southeast.

Dog alerting me something was not right Both my pets acted very unusual.nervous, anxious. I have a cat and a dog.

I had to continually let my dog out and I noticed 3 lights in a straight line that looked like stars at first glance but then I noticed that they were different in color and clarity. More of a blue/white rather than yellow/white and didn't look like the other stars around. I had never noticed this group of stars before.

I saw them at around 20:30. I brought my dog in but he refused to settle down and go to bed. He was very insistant to me that something was not right.

I let him out again around 22:00 and that star formation was completely gone. All of the other stars that were in the vacinity were there but not those 3. My pets acted strange all night.

2 of my other friends with pets told me this morn that their pets acted strange also. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

16 ors along with firealls light up Indiana sky On Thursday, 11-17-11 at around 19:30 my kids came running into the house saying something about explosions in the sky. My mom, sister, girlfriend, and I quickly went outside where we witnessed 16 orb shapes blinking different colors and what appeared to be within the middle of them fireballs falling from the sky. The fireballs looked similar to a flame thrower and a large rumble could be heard when they were seen.

The fireballs lasted for about five minutes from when I witnessed the event and the orbs remained for another 15 minutes afterward before they slowly moved away in all directions. During this time, our cell phones, internet, and cameras could not picture anything.

Multiple balls of light in the sky that constantly changed position for 15 minutes plus I was looking out the window of my two story house towards an empty field. Today, the field that I was looking at has become an addition. There is a large water tower that abuts the addition I live in.

Off in the distance, beyond the water tower, were over five glowing balls of light in the sky. Airplanes usually pass over this area, as there is an airport that is off to one direction, but these did not behave like aircraft. In fact, they moved constantly for about 15 minutes, weaving and ducking in the sky.

At one point, they almost made a triangular shape. Then, in one instant, they moved away, so quickly, that it could not have been an airplane. It was like a rocket, and they all took off at once, every single ball of light, as if it was coming from one craft.

I didn't see any aircraft chasing the object, but I have been puzzled thinking about it ever since it had happened. Usually, I'm not one to believe in this kind of stuff. When I saw what I saw though, I instantly believed.

I have never seen anything like it before in my life. ((NUFORC Note: Date and time may be approximate, although the witness does not indicate that fact. PD)).

Cluster of red lights in the Churubusco sky I was tending our camp fire in our back yard around 10 pm Saturday night when I turns to look back at the house when I saw eight or so red lights hovering over our neighborhood. The light moved at a constant speed for two to three minutes and then all of them “burned out”. About one to two minutes later, two more red lights, independent of each other also appeared in the sky.

They also moved to about the same location in the sky before “burning out”. The first set of lights moved very slowly and almost in a circular rotation. The second set moved in a more linear direction.

Red, yellowish fiery orbs flew quickly through the sky. Coming out of the south we viewed a few diamond shaped red edge illuminated objects. Looked also like there was a yellowish fire glow inside the red illumination.

The objects appeared to be moving quickly toward the North over lake Michigan. During the course of approximately 15-20 minutes this occurrence happened about 20 or more times. There was no sound.

Just quick moving illuminated objects. There were no more than two - three in fiew at the same time.

Red glowing circular object moving laterally South to North with no sound (about the size of an aircraft) On October 22, 2011 at approximately 8:45 p.m., my husband and I were outside of our home and observed a bright red "glowing" red oval/circular object in the sky moving laterally South to North.

It was as large as an aircraft but made no sound whatsoever. At first I thought it was a glowing balloon or lantern (but more circular in shape), but it did not ascend and moved laterally instead. My husband usually has an answer for everything, but not for this!! I have noticed upon doing an on-line search that others witnessed a similar object in our area (10/18 in Munster, IN, as noted on the MUFON site; and 10/8 in Crown Point, IN on UFO's Northwest site).

We've never believed in paranormal activity, including UFO's, but this was so unusual; would love more information!.
