Full Description & Details

Friend and I were sitting on my balcony about midnight and we heard and then felt a very low sort of hum. As we sat there and said "What the hell is that" I caught site of the very front point of a triangular shaped vessel emerging from the back of my house moving towards the front ( my balcony is at the front of the house) as we watched, the vessel, at a very slow pace emerged. The vessel was so close that had it not been dark we would have been able to see every detail. We both were astounded. As the vessel passed in front of the house we saw a series of lights across the back. The triangle shape was very clear and very large. Looked like a piece of pie with lights across the crust edge.

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

NO. There are several other reports of this same object in Illinois and several other areas
