By: Jessica
Event Location: Genesse county, Flint,
MI
Date: 1998 Time: 10
PM
Objects Shape: Triangle
Object had an: Aura or Haze around it, changed colors and hovered
Event Description: This happened in the parking lot at a
radio station.
It was dark and I was siting in the passenger seat of my Mom's van
(my sister was asleep in the back). My Mother had gone inside to
get my Dad from work.
I saw some flashing lights and when I looked up, there was this
huge object above us in the sky. Imagine seeing a plane coming in
for a landing. That's how big the object was. It was triangular in
shape with a circle at one end. (kind of like an ice cream cone)
So I guess you could say it was more of a "V" shape with
a circle on top. The V part of the object was a bright red color
while the circle was yellow. It would flash the two colors on and
off.
I sat there for maybe five minutes and it was gone. I don't ever
remember the object leaving so I don't know of the speed.
Reported By: Emily & Paula B. - Muskegon, Michigan - 7/6/02 1:37:22 PM
It was now getting close to midnight, when all of a sudden, the wind picked up to about twenty miles an hour or so. When this happened, we all looked up through the mature hardwood trees. When all of a sudden, four sets of spot
lights came into our field of view. Two side by side, with the other two directly below the others. They moved very slowly, just barely above the tree tops, maybe a mile or two an hour tops.
There was no noise except the wind which put us all on edge, because the chance of it being a helicopter were out,
due to the lack of engine or blade noise. Then it got worse, in a triangle formation the size of a 747 airplane, were two huge glowing orange balls trailing behind the spot lights giving the object shape and size.
The glowing balls were at least thirty feet across or so. We sat there in a dumfounded stare, until it past out of sight, then the wind calmed down snapping us back to reality to discuss what just happened.
A few minutes later are ride came and we all excitedly told him what happened as we made the four mile drive back
to town. On the last mile stretch running parallel with us was a helicopter, obvious by the blade sounds, but at first sight sent a chill through us. The helicopter kept pace with us into town and then fizzled off some where. We told a few people about what we saw and of course we got the "You're Crazy" look a lot. Then about two weeks
later my cousin was sitting on his balcony late at night having a drink, when he saw exactly what we had described, going across the woods line outside of town. We never saw this thing again, but there's lots of swamp land and
woods that give good cover. Which leaves only a couple of questions, what the heck was it and why was it in the middle of B.F.E. Michigan?
I sat in my patio chair and noticed how crystal clear and blue the sky was. I do not remember exactly what the date was, but I do remember the month. Anyway, looked up towards the north in the sky, I saw a Sphere shaped object,
silver in color, moving across the sky, east to west. I noticed a fast speed and no vapor trails. I then watched, as in front of the object, a crescent shaped, looked like electrical lightning formed.The object then
turned downward, half circle and entered this formation. At that moment the formation flashed, and it was gone.
All I can relate this to, is the special effects I've seen on "Star Trek" when the "Enterprise" goes to warp speed, how it
quickly zooms, and the light and image of it blurs, then the flash as it enters light speed. Well,sorry that was the only reference I could use. But this is what I saw.
If anyone would like to talk with me about this, I would be more than happy to help. Thank you for letting me get this off my chest. Danny

County sighting took place: Muskegon - Witnesses: 2 - Objects Shape: Disk - Number of objects: 1
Object had lights - Object changed colors - Object hovered - There was interference associated with the object
Event Description:
During January, me and my Mother were getting a midnight craving, so we went to taco bell. On the way home, we took the side street to the highway and I noticed something up in the sky.
My Mom looked and saw it also. The object started coming closer to our car, so my Mom started going faster. The thing kept following us down the street. I started getting a weird feeling that I can't explain.
The thing was almost over us when we pulled into our driveway. As we got out of our car and ran into the garage, as soon as we got in there, all the garage lights blew out, and glass shattered everywhere.
After we got in our house, I looked out the window and the object was still outside in the sky by our house. It stayed there for about half an hour and then it just disappeared.
That night while I was laying in my bed, I felt like I was being watched. That's all that happened that night.

Subject: UFO Sighting - Location: Owendale area (thumb) Michigan - Date: 3/?/00 - Time: Approx.4:30 PM
County sighting took place: Huron County - Witnesses: 1 - Objects Shape: Circle - Number of objects: 1
Additional Information: Open farm land, country road
Event Description:
The event I'm about to describe took place last winter 2000, at the time, I took this as 'natural cosmic event' deeming it (the object) a meteorite, but the more I thought about it over the past year, the more questions arose in my mind, to what I actually saw.
I'm a vendor driver, delivering products to different parts of the state of Michigan every week. The event took place on what is called my 'thumb route.' It was the end of the workday, I had completed all my stops, in the thumb, and was returning to the Bay City warehouse, which we truck drivers began our work day from.
Heading south on Bayport Rd., a paved rural road, surrounded by nothing but open farm fields dotted here and there with patches of woods allowing one to see for miles in all directions. Something caught my eye coming out of the West, being approx. 1 mile north of a patch of woods on the right side of the road, and the fact that the woods stood out well against a blue sky and snow covered fields, observing the approaching object was excellent.
The object, flat silver, nickel colored high lighted in areas by the sun, was round but coarse in appearance, like a faceted diamond. As the object approached my front field of vision, it was now located above the small patch of woods I mentioned earlier. I now noticed it was now not quite true round, but still roundish and was moving west to east approx. 200 to 300 ft. off the ground, figuring the trees were 70 to 100 ft. tall that it was now over.
The object I estimate, in relation to trees it now over, was 30 to 40 ft. in diameter. As I remember, I saw no exhaust flume, no windows, no lights of any sort and the object took no more then 5 seconds to cross my whole field of vision, 10 to 15 miles, I estimate.
Because of the low height it traveled at, I actually expected it to hit the ground and I waited as it passed in front of me, it didn't, surprising me. It was moving faster then any jet I had ever seen flying and flying the height a small prop plane might fly, but at thousands of miles faster. If a radio antenna tower would have been in front of its path it would have cut it in half.
It is possible that others saw it to, however I never heard word of anyone else seeing it, nor did I here of any object
hitting the ground on TV or radio or newspaper, which I thought would happen in this state or neighboring Canada across Lake Huron. I thought it was ice meteor. If anyone has any idea to what I saw please inform me. I know it
wasn't ball lighting. I also wonder if it was tracked on radar? I've seen shooting stars, have read UFO books with some skepticism, but never dreamed I would encounter what I thought was fiction. Thank you for letting me share my
experience with your web readers.

Event Description:
I was on a bus going to a hockey game. It was raining a little, and it was cold. I saw the UFO flying around back and forth over a wheat field. I had my brother and two friends look at it and they didn't know what to make of it. There was a near by radio tower, but the object was away from it. It was very dark. I don't know if anyone else on the bus saw the UFO.

Subject: UFO Sighting - Location: Chelsea, Michigan - Date: 2/26/00 - Time:1:00 AM
Zip Code: 48118 - Additional Information: Just off of Country Road, little ways out of town
Witnesses: 2 - Objects Shape: Triangle - Number of objects: 1 - Object had lights - Left a vapor trail
Event Description:
I was riding home from my friends house when I saw a strange light in the corner of my eye. I told my friend, who was driving to stop the car. I got out of the car and searched for the light I had just recently seen. After a quick view of the sky I saw what I was looking for, a strange looking group of lights. They were in the rough shape of a triangle, with bright lights at the corners and duller lights connecting the corners. Just as I focused on it and had time to realize what it was it vanished. Leaving only a faint trail of light that quickly dispersed in its path.

Subject: UFO Sighting - Event Location: near Ann Arbor, MI - Time of event: 1:00 AM
Number of witnesses: 2 - Objects Shape: 'Triangle' - Number of objects: 1 - Object had lights
Event Description:
Hi there.. I have wanted to say something about this, but everyone made fun of me so I didn't, until now..
When I watched a Chicago station the other night and saw some policemen talking about something they saw in the sky, it was EXACTLY what I had seen last year.
I live in Michigan, and my husband and I were traveling east on Interstate I-94 to Canada. We were almost into Ann Arbor, Michigan and it was about 1:00 AM, and we had been looking at these 2 weird bright white lights in the sky, like 2 super bright headlights...
Well, they zoomed into just one light all of a sudden and hubby goes.. "What the heck was that?" I said I didn't know, but it was strange.... so, we go another mile and I said to him...'Look at this !!" I looked out my window, and above us, was this triangle shaped thing. Not far up either, had lights under it.... And was not moving. Everyone has said, it was a helicopter, or this or that, NO WAY, there was no nose, tail or wings, it was a perfect triangle shaped thing and did not move.
Now... these policemen in Illinois say they saw a triangle object, and was not moving... so now I know I am not crazy, I saw it too. I heard this was on CNN.. I am checking as I want to hear exactly what they saw. I wish I would have stopped on the way home to pick up the Ann Arbor paper from the next day to see if there was anything in it about that... Strange is all I can say and it was NOT a plane... nor a helicopter, I could see the outline of it, perfectly! Anyway, thanks for listening, at least you guys won't tease me about this, I hope!?!! ... Denise
