Full Report Text:
Small, black triangle shaped object flying silently and slowly overhead olong NJ beach. Sometime in mid-October of 2002, I was sitting on the open porch of a rental house just decompressing from a long day of work, when I looked up at stars directly overhead. (The house is just 3 houses from the Atlantic Ocean).
I observed a small black isosceles-triange shaped object. It was approximately 40 feet long. It had one solid white light on each corner of the triangle.
I would estimate it to be about 400 feet above my head. It was cruising very slowly, in a due south direction, I would estimate it to be about 20 mph. It did not make a sound.
I watched it continue in a completely straight path until I could not see it any longer. I am still bothered to this day by what I saw that night. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the event is approximate.
PD)).
