Description of experience:: while driving home from work it was fall because it was already dark at 9:30. I saw a bright light and heard loud high pitched tone coming out of sky. I slowed way down because i thought it was going to crash, but it just slowed down very fast and stopped at bottom of a gorge. A truck driver was going other way stopped too and got out we both just stood there for what seemed like only seconds. I said im getting out of here and so did he. The funny thing that still bothers me is I knew there was a light but my eyes could not identify the color it was like as if it was a color that does not exist.Then after getting back in my car driving on my way home a feww hundred feet up the road something flew out of the woods it was something white with wings i know it was not a bird. The rest of the ride home I shook from the experience. Wife new something happened when I walked in the door.To thids day I still get goose bumps from recalling this. Especially the part about the light I couldnt tell the color.
Note: The individual filing the report did so via email instead of the report form on the website which accounts for its unusual appearance.
I am a police officer on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and grew up outside of Washington, D.C. near Andrew's Air Force Base. I have watched the night skies throughout my life and am familiar with night sightings of aircraft, satellites, meteors, rocket and balloon launches. After reading the sighting described by Kevin in notice 091699-2, I realized that his sighting was very similar to a sighting of anomalous lights I observed in the winter of 1990. At that time, I recorded the date, time, compass bearings, estimated elevation and weather conditions. However, this information has been misplaced. To the best of my recollection, the sighting occurred in November at around 11:00 pm. over the Atlantic Ocean in the eastern sky. The temperature was in the 30's and the sky had unlimited visibility with no moon. The lights I saw were brighter that the magnitude of the brightest star in the sky that night and at an elevation of approximately 30 degrees off the horizon. I was by myself on surveillance watching commercial boats for suspected drug trafficking. I saw the usual lights of ocean going vessels on the horizon and the strobes of commercial aircraft traveling north and south at extreme altitudes. I also saw a single engine aircraft landing at the Ocean City Airport. None of these sightings were new to me. During night work I often watched the night skies over the ocean and saw these. On the horizon over the ocean I saw a bright light that looked like a distress signal flair. However, the light was not going up in an arc nor was it coming down. The light kept my attention as it was unlike any light I have seen in the sky. After a moment I got my 10 X 50 binoculars and viewed the light which turned out to be two lights side by side. I couldn't guess how far away or at what altitude the lights were at. I can only say that the lights appeared to be very high in the sky and stationary. After a few minutes of watching these lights, a red light appeared slightly below and to the right of the two white light and was a little less in intensity. The lights reminded me of the constellation "Orion's Belt", as they were not parallel to the horizon but kind of diagonal. A minute of so after the red light appeared, the lights started moving within half the field of view of my binoculars in what I can only describes as similar to a WW I aerial dog fight. The two white lights and the red light appeared to be circling each other. After a few moments the lights stopped this movement and aligned in their original configuration briefly. The red light then started to move to the south and the two white lights disappeared from their stationary position. After the red light traveled a short distance, as viewed through my binoculars, the light disappeared. Approximately one hour later, I called the Patuxent River Navel Base (Maryland) knowing that they had radar coverage of the Atlantic Ocean. I identified myself to the person who answered my phone call at Pax River and transferred me to the base's control tower. I talked with an air traffic controller who said that at the time of my sighting they did not have any unidentified aircraft on their scope which covered 3,000 to 30,000 feet elevation. The next day I called my sister who worked at Goddard Space Flight Center (NASA) in Greenbelt, Maryland to see if the Wallops Island branch of GSFC had any balloon launches. She reported the Wallops Island had not launched any rockets or balloons. I have not since that time seen anything over the ocean similar to the lights described above.

Description = My buddy and I were sitting outside on our usual Friday UFO hunt. We hadnt seen anything for about two years until last Friday. We couldnt make out characteristics because it was slightly in the cloud cover. It came from the Southern horizon to the North Northwest, almost in the direction of Daubins AFB, in Marietta. In the whole process it took about a 20 degree turn and is estimated to be 100ft. x 100ft.

Description = Me and my mom were going to Wal-mart, and I looked up in the sky and saw one fairly small saucer shape light in the sky. I told my mom to look up and, I said what is that look how fast it is going. She told me it was a shooting star. And then it suddenly started to zigzag back and forth and then I made out two other small saucer shape flying next to it. It was going so fast at times I couldnt even see it move. I don't know if anyone else saw it. I told my mom to pull over and let me get out of the car. Just to make sure it wasnt a light on the windsheild but when I got out and looked , it looked the same it just got a little brighter.
