UFO flap of 6 crafts hovering over 2 women in a car, near Long Lake, St. Agatha, ME. I'm surprised this has not yet been registered.
A flap of 6 UFOs, seen hovering over Long Lake, and Green Point Rd., St.Agatha, ME.
Witnesses 2 women at 1:30 a.m. with flap over the driver's car, hovering 10'-15' off the ground.
One woman walked underneath the 2 rectangular objects and 4 disc-shaped objects for 5 minutes. Then the UFOs disappeared in seconds, as fast as they came. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

Scared to death at a city park. Overlooking Belfast Harbor Me and a friend were sitting at the city park when we heard something like a sonic boom, then a splash,then another boom. My friend told me to stand behind him and look over the water.
When I did I saw a triangler shape swaying in the sky. My friend told me to look at him and when I did I saw a white dot on his head. I followed it to the triagle.
We got up and headed out of the park. We walked about 5 feet and stopped to look behind us. It was gone.
Then there was a bright light above our head and we looked up. The next think we know we had walked about 2oo feet and didn't know it. That 200feet I have no idea what happened.

low flying disc, flew right over us We were heading south on rte 236 from S.B. at dusk when we noticed a slow low flying disc shaped craft heading west over what is now known as the Marshwood Great works School I pulled my vehicle over to watch it as it crossed 236 when we couldn't see it anymore I turned right on the rd on the west side of 236 to see if we could find it that's when we noticed to our left the the craft was heading north straight at us just barely over the tree tops approx.
75 ft in the air and traveling at a very slow speed approx 10 mph, I got out and stood as the object past directly over us, so I got a real good look at it the craft was making no noise what so ever, it was approx. 100 ft wide with bright white window like lights going all around the outside center of the craft and on the bottom center were bright white lights approx 25 ft in diameter in a circle, after it went over us it went straight up fast heading toward S.B.
when it got to about where the Salmon Falls r! iver is it stopped and dropped straight down and disappeared. This happened approx 24 years ago when my son was about 10, it's a day I'll never forget.

Colorful sphere changing directions quickly and disappears. My friend ZH and I were sitting on the lifeguard chair at Woods Pond around 10pm in July 1994, right before I left for college in Montana. We were looking at the sky talking when a green orb shot down the sky with an orange glow around it.
It then stopped in the sky, hovered, glowing green and orange. It then shot back up at a 45 degree to the left impossibly fast and disappeared. We both saw it and were completely blown away by what we just saw.

Bright silent lights above lake We were out boating on the Lake after dark and to the North appeared a bright, silent light at approx. 3000 feet high. We didn't notice it arrive but while we watched another joined it slowly from the west.
They hung together in the sky about 200 feet apart, for about a minute- then the one on the right zoomed off to the east at about 100mph- it hesitated after a short while and then dissapeared into the horizon. The other then moved off to the west again at a similar rate. All this took place in total silence.
A helicopter or plane would have made some noise. There were no roads on the hillside behind the objects so it couldn't have been reflections from car headlights. The movement away of the objects seemed to coincide with how long they were stared at.
ie when we looked at them they moved and they rested when we looked elsewhere. The best way to describe the objects was like two bright light bulbs in a pitch black room. These were definitely NOT stars.
I would like to add that before this I was a sceptic. I am a fairly sane university graduate aged 27 (22 at the time) and no, we had not been drinking! I give this report after watching a UFO TV program that jogged my memory- then I looked at some website where someone described almost the same thing in Seskatchewan, Canada a month later. The image is an illustration, as clear as I remember it.
Why can't we be clutching a camera at times like this?!.

fast moving high altitude pulsating disc I was stargazing with 12x50 binoculars. The sky was clear with myriads of spring stars. I had already observed several high altitude aircraft like airliners as well as satelites.
While scanning with the binoculars I spotted a fast moving disc shaped object moving from east to west. It was pulsating rythmically like a heart beating at a rapid rate. It was like light was moving from the canter to the rim in waves.
The beats were roughly four per second. I tracked it until it went out of sight. The whole thing lasted 30 seconds to a minute.
It appeared to be very high moving very fast. It wasn't like any aircraft I have seen. It gave me the creeps.
