Nighttime

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

i couldnt make out the shape of it properly but from where i was, it looked like a kind of triangular shape, although it could have been a more stranger shape, but it was too dark looking to make out the shape properly as the sky matched the colour of the actual flying object. As it flew over my house (well not really my house but more near the next house down from mine) i could see underneath it, and i could see that it featured several yellowish whiteish lights (The same colour as a low wattage bulb light) and i could also hear its sound which was a quiet undescribable sort of moving sound. It also had 3 much smaller (flashing) lights, one on the back, and one on each of the sides. Once it got so far over my house that the roof was blocking my view of it, i ran to the other window on the opposite side of the house and i could see it again. It kept travelling until it dissapeared into the distance and obviously was no longer visible to me. Theres surely other people that also saw it because people usually come home from the town centre at about that time, but most of them are probably too drunk to see properly lol, and i just wanted to share this sighting with other people, so i chose this website.

Size of Object(s)

I couldnt make out the size properly, but id say it looked quite big but it was also quite far up in the sky, id say if i was to part two fingers from one another to show the size that it appeared to be, i would say that 3-4 cm would be a good size estimation.

Description of Area / Surroundings

All there is around the area that i saw it travel across are mostly houses and buildings and also trees and like ive said already, it came from over the woods across from where i live as ive already said, although i dont know what time it actually got there (over the woods)

Full Description & Details

Before i mention my sighting, i just want to say that i am the sort of person who would never lie about something like this. I know that some people lie for attention, so i just want to let everyone reading this know that im not faking it or anything like that.

Anyway, i was in my bedroom at around 1.35am after midnight watching a tv program and the adverts came on, so i went over to the window because i was bored. It was a really clear night, there was no clouds, all the stars were in perfect view and i looked around and then noticed a really bright light over the trees that surround the woods which can be seen in the far distance from my house (I have a very large view from my house). I started looking at it and it didnt move so i thought it was a star, and it stayed like that for a few minutes. Just then it started to move, but it didnt move much, it just moved a tiny bit right from where it was before, and because of this i thought it was a helicopter (because it moved a bit like one). I kept watching it and it moved a bit more right again, but it didnt stay there for long as it started moving towards my house area. As it got closer and closer it started to look different, and as soon as it got close enough for me to see it properly, it didnt look anything like a helicopter. Shocked by this i tried to get my camcorder out to zoom in on it and film it but i realised that there was no tape in it and i didnt have enough time to find one out and then go back to the window again as it was travelling at a medium speed (like the speed of an airplane, but it didnt move anything like an airplane).

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Definately not, it moved a bit like a helicopter but looked like a strange shaped flying object as ive explained before, so i know that it was definately not a helicopter or anything like that, and it was definately not an airplane either because of the way it moved and then stopped in mid air and also again because of the way it looked.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I am very interested in UFOs and space, i always have been, although i am not the sort of person to learn more and more about UFOs all the time from books and other sources. I am more interested in the universe than i am in UFOs. In fact i have a giant interest in the universe, and ever since being about 9 years old i have always bought books on planets and stars etc. I have never much really thought about UFOs although i have always had a slight fear of them.
