Full Report Text:
A round green flare dropped slowly from the sky and landed on the ground We were driving heading west on I-90 in Moses Lake, Washington. It was about 7:00 (?) and it was pitch black out, but very clear. There were two of us in the front seat with another asleep in the back of the car.
A round green flare fell out of the sky. It fell slowly enough for the two of us in the front seat to say "what the heck is that?", wake up the passenger in back, have her sit up and watch it drop as well. It didn't look like it dropped far from where we were - maybe a mile? ((NUFORC Note: We believe the witness is alluding to the dramatic fireball seen over Puget Sound on Monday, 15OC01, at approximately 2023 hrs.
(Pacific). The exact time is known because the object was photographed with a sky camera in Courtenay, B.C.
We have changed the time here. PD)).

Large, triangular formation of lights witnessed over the Grant Co. Intl. Airport.
At approx. 22:25 hours, I was getting out of my ((deleted)) vehicle when I noticed what I thought to be a satellite passing overhead. After looking closer, I noticed that there were two other "satellites" following in formation, forming a very large triangular shape.
I began to watch it closely and noticed slightly dimmer lights that appeared to outline the object, again forming a very large triangle. The object continued to travel across the night sky at a very slow speed yet very high altitude never, losing its formation.I continued to watch the object until it disapeared behind the cloud cover.
My background is in ((deleted)) services, a full-time ((deleted)), and a reserve ((deleted)). ((NUFORC Note: We have deleted certain data from the report to protect the individual's privacy. Witness appears to be a highly qualified individual, and probably is an excellent observer.
We believe that the witness may have observed three satellites that have been reported to NUFORC recently. They appear to fly in unwavering formation, and they seem to remain visible for several weeks' duration. They are thought to be part of a U.
S. Navy space surveillance effort, which is referred to as "N.O.
S.S." However, we have no explanation for the additional lights that the witness describes.
PD)).

I wasn't a believer. but obviously the gov't hides this stuff with a bunch of media, otherwise: public panic! WOW. I wasn't a believer, but this changed my mind.
First off, i know the gov't is reading this and hiding all the evidence, well u know what? Screw u top secret agents, this is a free country, i guess not then. Anyways, it was about 12 at night and my family and i were in the car (6 including me), and it was in the middle of nowhere except for a gas station and some restaurants. There were roughly 50 cars around or so, and nobody noticed or something, i noticed first that a light was just sitting there above a street light, not moving at all.
we were about a football field away from it, and we were driving slower now to see it better. I am learning to get my pilot's license, so i know this isn't something ordinary. As we were driving closer to it, i opened the window and stuck my head out, and i guess they noticed me or something.
because it started to move to it's side, left and right very slowly, and knowing planes. they can't do that. there were a lot of lights around it, that's all i could see, and due to how the lights were arraigned.
it seemed like a street's stop sign cut in half. As we drove underneath it, i tried to see it, but when we looked back, it was gone. that lasted for about 8 mins or so.
Then about 20 mins later, we came to our relative's house and just as we parked the car and got out, we saw the same thing again, but further away. I believe it was following us, it's lights were even brighter this time and it seemed to hypnotize us or something, because i would've thought about getting the video camera, but i don't remember thinking about anything.strange, and all i saw as i was looking underneath it was a bright red light.
kind of like a beacon, and it seemed like glass or something under it. because i was able to see through it, there were lights from screens on the walls and shadows that just stood there, probably looking at us, don't remember looking at them directly, weird feeling at that time. As it came up to us, it was about 100 ft in the air or so, and was very slow above us and about 100+ ft in diameter.
It made NO engine sounds except for a quiet hum and just the wind blowing, most likely from the engine or exhaust that is very efficient. Then as it was getting about 50 ft from us, it was going higher in the air and again. not much sound still and just then was i able to think of the camera and took a little video.
but i can't find it, it's somewhere in the house and afraid the gov't might do something to me. then it started gaining some altitude and just turned off the lights or something and it seemed to stretch, because it was so fast, and that's when i finally heard a louder sound from it, could've been an antimatter engine, who knows? the gov't does. Also, i heard that there's an underground military base there at Moses Lake.
I know, long story, but i wanted to get the details out, and i didn't revise this, so there's things that are prob. confusing. Thx SO much for ur time, and would love to see this posted so that others could read it and wanna hear response please! I would love to talk to some authority ppl about this.
: ) Thx ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that date of incident is approximate. PD)).
