Boomerang, no lights, silent Tonight at approximately 8:30 while looking up at the stars, I noticed a dark object moving through the sky. It was difficult to estimate distance and altitude. Though, I would say it was maybe at the altitude a helicopter flies.
There were no lights or sound. It was moving at a speed consistent with a helicopter. My sighting lasted only about 10 seconds.
My best estimate of the shape was something like a boomerang. It moved through the sky very smoothly unlike the flapping of a bird’s wings. Though I imagine if I misestimated the altitude, it’s feasible that it was a large bird gliding.
After discussing it with a third party with pilot training, it was also mentioned that it may have been a B2 bomber.

3 blue lit UFOs seen at dusk near local Walmart in Oxford, MS I saw the 3 UFO’s on a photo from a pretty sunset outside the Oxford, MS walmart on Jackson Ave. This is actually my 3rd sighting (my second sighting in Oxford MS—the first sighting in Oxford I had was back in fall of 2011 with my husband—we saw 3 similar saucer UFO’s together in formation and saw them rapidly dart away from each other), but this is the 1st time I took a picture and saw the UFOs *after* the picture was taken, and for that reason, I do not know how long the sighting last. Simply put, I was only taking a picture of the beautiful sky then later upon reviewing the picture saw the UFOs.
The picture I have was taken in “live” mode on my iPhone, meaning the picture doubles as a mini video and can be broken down by multiple frames. There is no chance of window glare as I took the picture while walking to my car, thus I was not inside a car at the time. Reviewing the picture on live mode shows 3 UFOs slightly moving together in a tight formation, the! n the last few frames show them moving in rapid acceleration.
The picture shows the Walmart store and the parking lot itself in the background, as well as a moon near the UFOs that help provide a sense of size and movement. I am happy to send the live picture to another iPhone for anyone else to see. **NOTE re my personal contact info- I concent to anyone contacting me, but please note I am changing cell phone carriers shortly, and have been told I will need to change my phone number; thus, email is best point of contact**.

Low flying object with no lights or sound. Saw a craft flying low while we were driving down the highway. The craft had no lights.
We could barely see it. It looked almost like the bottom of a boat. We could make out ridges going horizontally across the craft.
We could not hear any noise being made by the craft.

Oval/saucer like object that emited orange/reddish light. Zoomed off in seconds, left trail of light it was so fast. It knew we we saw I wish I knew about UFO report site earlier, but unfortunately that’s not the case and I wish I called within the week of this event taking place.
About 2 years ago, (maybe more, maybe less I am really sorry to say I don’t exactly know), I was driving my friend home and about half a mile down the road where his house is, we both saw an orange and reddish light hovering in the sky pretty far up it was about the size of this in the sky: (///////). It was shaped like an oval, maybe saucer, and after about 4 seconds (maybe less) of looking at it, the UFO looking object zoomed off like we knew we were looking at it. It didn’t disappear it ZOOMED and left a trail of light briefly.

Slow fliying, triangular shaped object, that moved from the horizon, overhead, until it vanished from sighton the opposite horizon I am a 28 year old band agent and talent scout for a well known concert promotion/entertainment agency. I was in Oxford, MS on business, and stopped at a friends apartment befor going out for the night. On the drive over, my other friends and I had japed that it was a perfect night to see a U.
F.O. because of the beautiful clear sky.
I stepped out back (9:45)to light a cigarette, and happened to glance at the tree covered sky line, to see what I thought was a kite flying in the distance. It appeared to be a black plastic triangular kite, barely reflecting the light. As the object got closer (about the size of my hand held at arms leangth), I thought maybe someone had lost a kite and it was flying free.
The only thing that seemed stange was the fact that the object was flying in a straight line. At this point I realized I could make out the shape of the object because of it's reflective or illuminated front sides. As the thing approched almost directly overhead the it was still almost invisible, other than the nine or eleven very dim lights outlining the front.
at this time it had gone from legal pad sized to a full arms lenght across. I new I didn't have a camera, so I called into the apartment to get some attention. Three friend came outside to see the object pass overhead and disapear into the night on the opposit horizon.
Although the triangle seemed to light up in the front, we could not tell if it was reflecting light or self illuminated. the triangle was so faint that if you were not looking directly at it, you couldn't see it. It didn't stand out aginst the night at all.
The object made no sounds or sudden movements. As a matter of fact, it did nothing spectacular at all. I'v always believed in U.
F.O'S, but never that I would see one: until now. I don't know what to make of this.
