Round dark silhouette with bright orange light moving different directions I was driving up West Street, in Rutland, VT, around 9:45pm, and a bright orange light shot across the sky, right in front of me. It wasn't very high up, lower then where a plane would be but MUCH higher then where a kite would fly. Instantly, I pulled over because I could see the bright orange-ish light (a round silouette shape) hovering right in the sky.

I pulled over and was just so blown away by what I was seeing. The UFO quickly would shoot up, hover slowly, then go down, hover slowly, then shoot diagonally. The light would hover down at first, making a kind of blur because it moved so fast.

Then slowly hover back up. I realized I need to video this! So I pulled my phone out and took a video of it. The round orange flying object would slowly hover up, then over.

at this point it was moving alot slower. This had gone on for about 5 minutes since I had pulled over. And then all of a sudden, it just took off and flew away.

String of Lights In The Sky May 17 2021 It was around 12:05AM when I saw a string of small,moving lights in the sky. It seemed as if they were following each other at a slow,steady speed,with no sound. They moved straight at first,and then began to rather act like a snake or centipede.

The lights stayed together about 3 minutes and faded out of my view. We could not get a good photo of the object on the cell phone. This has happened once before around the same time of year.

The last time I saw them was in July, there were around five bright lights, and more defined. I would like to know what these are, they seem strange to me.

Pulled out of parking lot onto street & and saw 3 green lights in the sky ahead of me while driving. It caught my eye because it was unusual in sight but also because of location in the sky. Definitely wasn’t an airplane or helicopter & it was moving slow or hovering.

I finally pulled over to try & take a picture or video but it’s pace picked up & it was gone.

Glowing oreo cookie shaped disc like object witnessed moving quickly and silently across the night sky. At approx. 9:45 PM on 09/30/2020 I witnessed a bright illuminated object with a greenish tint move rapidly and silently from the South to the North in a straight line across a portion of the night sky over Rutland, Vermont.

The object appeared to have a distinct shape and hard edges, appeared to be like two glowing hockey puck shaped discs stacked one on top of the other and moving in tandem. I could not determine if the upper and lower structures of the object were connected but it moved as one solid object. The object did not have the running lights of an aircraft and moved much quicker than I am accustomed to seeing conventional aircraft move across the sky at low or high altitudes.

It did not leave any kind of glowing or fiery trail in it’s wake. It did not appear to be falling from the sky. It moved horizontally and in complete silence.

I cannot judge distance or altitude and only had the object in my field of view for a few seconds. Comparatively speaking, from my vantage point, the object appeared to be about 25% the size of the full moon and much bigger than any of the visible planets or stars that night.

Red and green lights hovering and disappearing My youngest and I were reading in my bedroom, and she said “look, green lights!” We all looked out and saw green lights moving so softly at first, hover then turn red. Disappear for a moment, then zoom a little, hover, changed colors four times. Seemed to be in a small area for 2 minutes.

There was no sound, but it looked fairly close. When it disappeared, it was so fast that I knew it was not a helicopter, It was amazing. My son was ecstatic to have seen something like this.

I’m 35, active in my community, weary of UFO sightings, but certainly not a skeptic.

cylinder, lights were square with some round lights. colors of lights transitioned not in a pattern. On Sunday November 19th, 2017, my kids and I were heading home back to NY on route 4 when we noticed a large object hovering just south of us on RTE 4 heading west.

We just drove though the city of Rutland and we were in the South Western part of the city. It was cylinder shape. Almost like a yo yo.

It had two stacks of lights. Some were square and some were spherical. The lights changed colors mostly, almost like a color wheel.

There was some overcast so the colors would dissipate in the clouds. My daughter had made and I had seen an object like that when I was 10 or 11. Now I am 50.

Bright orb witnessed moving back and forth then vanishing, by 3 people in Vermont 1/10/15 16:40 1/10/15 at 16:40 facing due west, myself and 2 others witnessed a highly luminous orb moving back and forth quickly in the clear almost dusk sky. My friends saw it first, then texted me in my vehicle. Text was "orb to the left.

" Easy to visually acquire because it was the only thing in the sky. Very bright, almost pure white light. It was 45degrees in sky from our POV.

Witnessed for 25-30 seconds, then completely vanished. Hard to tell altitude and distance because object size unknown. Pretty obvious what it was.

Circular points of multi-colored flashing lights. Four of us viewed a circular display of multi-colored flashing lights in what appeared a close orbit above the earth's atmosphere. The shape of the points of light evolved and rose in the night sky.

Between 22:30 and 1:30 a.m., we studied them in a small Celestron telescope.

They remained together but the shape shifted slightly as time elapsed. Curious if others have seen this phenomena?.

Light/Fireball heading towards earth, 9 PM, Rutland Vermont, Whitish-Green streak of light behind and no explosion. Around 9:30 PM I happened to glance quickly out a large widow that faces southwest, when I suddenly saw a fireball/light streak across the sky. It looked to be relatively high up, to be honest I thought it was a plane crashing when I first saw it because there's an airport nearby.

There was no noticeable noise being emitted. It was bright white and left a long whitish-green streak of light or vapor behind it which dissipated about 10 minutes later. I didn't see or hear any explosion, I also could not tell where it landed because of how dark it was outside.

It was definitely not a meteor either, I've seen many meteor showers and this did not look like one at all.

extremly low in the sky streaking horizontally leaving a long trail behind itself and eventually exploding. Very clear night sky on the cold side with vibrant star viewing I noticed a bright light streaking across the sky. It was extremely white and crisp in its color, almost star like.

It zoomed horizontally about 25 feet above me and about a half a mile in length. I pulled over and open the window to see it more clearly and it exploded and seemed to evaporate into the air. What struck me funny was the extreme intensity of light and the long trail it left as it streaked across the sky only 25 feet above me.

I have never seen such a sight.

Triangle with three lights sighted in Vermont The sky was cloudless and starry. I looked up from my driveway to see what I first thought was a night bird, but as my eyes followed it, I could see it was a horizontal triangle with three lights. Because the night sky was filled with stars, I could see the shape of the object as it blocked the stars’ light.

The triangle appeared to be about 200 feet up, moving easterly in an almost-straight line, wobbling slightly, not always quite level. It moved at the pace of a soaring bird, coasting through the air. It seemed to be about five feet wide.

Three round lights were evenly spaced in its corners, the same color as the stars, pale bluish-white, with indistinct edges. The triangle itself appeared to be grayish, though that may be only because it was against the dark sky. I noticed in particular that it made no sound.
