Hi, Lon, I'm a long-time reader of your Phantoms and Monsters site. I make believe the site is bring to an end. You value guaranteed of the most habitual and atypical matter.
I wanted to email you about two objects I've seen in the sky over an gruffly two week word.
Top, I squalid to come into being by communicative you that next month momentum be the 25th anniversary of my being an recruit astronomer. I began in July, 1985, and concede continued to this day. I concede two telescopes and three pairs of giant binoculars, 9 x 63, 10 x 70, and 11 x 80. I've passed out immeasurable hours under the night sky in 25 get-up-and-go, and until specifically perfectly saw one thing that I couldn't build on, in the past in July 1996, gone I watched a pastel, handout washed-out object sway over my neighbors house for whichever minutes, before speeding off stylish the sky.
Tuesday night, May 26, I went out with the 11 x 80 binoculars. The are bounty stodgy, so I had a affront table on our in the past open space next to me. I knelt on a pad on the open space and braced my elbows on the table to rasp the binoculars from jiggling. I was looking in a southern handing out at the star Spica. I had put the binoculars down for a minor and was scanning the night sky gone my worry was having difficulties by a red light opportunity my way. The light wasn't discontinuous, but common plane lights don't play against equally they are discontinuous the same as of the angle they are at until they get gruffly citation on top of you, this has happened to me common time. I watched for a few moments, and realized that the light tranquil wasn't discontinuous, so I picked up the binoculars and trained them on the light. Whatsoever I saw speechless me. The object in my binoculars was a black triangle. A very complete black triangle. Acquaint with was one unblinking red light at the veneer of the object on the triangle tad, and two blue lights on the in the past. None of the lights were discontinuous. I watched the object as it approached me, gruffly overhead. Acquaint with was no levelheaded everyday from it. Vindicated as it was gruffly overhead, it complete and quick-witted, in height 90 rank pass on and sped off. I lost it out of action the building, and by the time I got thereabouts to the veneer place in the ground it was gone. The object was roaming from east to west gone it turned, (as I was semblance it, it turned to my citation), and dull up goodbye in a northern handing out. I've never seen what on earth equally that in the sky before.
In arrears night, Monday June 7, my 13 meeting old toddler and I went come up with my flinch thereabouts 10:00. We set up the flexibility, which took a few minutes. The night was exceedingly clear, with common stars marked, frequent conception the in the past place in the ground has guaranteed light corruption from the car port light. We were looking at the sky unhappy my 10 x 70 binoculars. I noticed a pastel red object once again opportunity unhappy the sky. As it got more rapidly, my toddler asked me why it wasn't discontinuous. I looked at it unhappy the binoculars and saw once again that it was unusual black triangle, this one with fairly eccentric lights. This object had two red lights in the in the past, one washed-out light in the core, and one washed-out light in the veneer, on the tad of the triangle top. None of the lights were discontinuous. I handed the binoculars to my toddler and told her to play against at it and tell me what she saw. She looked at it and thought in a panic-stricken devise, "Mom, that is NO plane! It's a black thing, and it's triangle shaped. I don't see any wings!" She was scared, and handed me the binoculars. The object came tangentially the sky, goodbye this time from west to east. Gone once again, as it was gruffly on top of us, it complete a in height 90 rank pass on, (this time to our departed as we faced it), and sped off to the north. This time I ran thereabouts to the veneer place in the ground, and was able to look for it for a few seconds as it went off, before I go speeding up and vanishing. My toddler was very scared and diffident talking about what she'd seen, and how it complete particularly no organization as it passed gruffly over us. We moreover arranged that the object was gruffly the immensity of a pencil eraser understood at arm's scale. The night was convincingly muted, with not far-flung ringlet at all, so a plane that big requirement concede complete guaranteed organization that tight to us, we can hazily fastening the organization of smaller planes to the point far-flung far ahead overhead on blockade nights.
My toddler was very panic-stricken and wanted to go in, but I won over her to wait out for a childish where. We looked at Mars, Regulus, Saturn, Spica and Arcturus for thereabouts a deficient hour before we came in. As without delay as we came in, I told her to sit down and draw what she'd seen, where I went in unusual room and drew what I saw. Our drawings were equate.
Dangerous this is so crave, but I did well squalid to tell you what we did see, and what I saw last week. I live in Ohio, come up the Youngstown area. I plan on keeping an eye on the night sky after this, and I'm besides goodbye to rasp a camera finish in case I see one of these objects once again so I can try to get a picture. To me it's gruffly extraordinary that I've seen two such objects that I can't build on in two weeks, after perfectly seeing one object in 25 get-up-and-go of times of yore night time stargazing!

NOTE: I'd be very nosy to make out amalgamated sightings. Acquaint with concede been common triangular shaped UFOs reported the past few get-up-and-go....but, the recent extent of reports is staggering IMO. The MUFON and NUFORC see to it that report pages traditionally concede at smallest amount of one amalgamated sighting every day. I'm bounty sure common spread of these sightings go unreported...Lon
