No of observers: 1

Location: Abita Springs, LA, USA

Shape: Light


This is the second time I have seen floating blue lights in my neighborhood at night and can't figure out what they are.

Laying in bed, my large window faces the back yard, a cylindrical blue light appears, maybe 12 inches high, is on for about 10 seconds and then fades out. I have discounted any cars going by, it was just really strange. Now, I also saw two blues lights about 4 months ago as I was standing in my driveway saying goodnight to my daughter in law and her kids. These two lights moved in tandem about 50 yards away and about as high as the tree line down the street, then moved to us and past us right above the roofline of our house and then disappeared. No noise either. Very strange.

Triangle 'floating' in the sky and observed between tall pine trees

I did see something in the sky August 19th 2004 around 3pm CDT in Abita Springs, Louisiana. From my porch, I saw a triangle of 3 white/silver balls/cones in the sky between two tall pines.

My first reaction when I saw it was: " What the hell is THAT" !! The 'interior' of the triangular object seemed to be almost invisible from my viewpoint.

I saw it at about a 45 degree angle, not directly up, therefore the 3 'balls' or 'cones'were close together and it was difficult to judge thickness of the body.

The left and right ball/cone was toward me, the center one, the middle one, a bit more forward on the object. There were distinct lines on these balls/cones, perhaps like on booster rockets or similar to propulsion engines.

The object could have been fairly close, not too far away, or it could have been higher in the sky from another viewpoint and then perhaps much larger.

Don't know how to draw the body shape at the angle I observed it at....

(Sending photo of the trees/sky where the object was seen.My drawing is not good, but this is how I saw it with the approximate color and size. Photo was taken after the sighting so I could draw the object in while fresh in my memory.) Hard to say if the left and right tips were rounded or not, my minds memory says they were rounded, nothing protruding out from over the balls/cones.

The 'object' didn't change in its shape, just 'floated' for close to 1 minute.

Suddenly it turned left (north) (behind the left pine tree in the photo) in a perfect triangular shape.

I was perplexed. Got my camera and continued looking up at the sky from my porch.

About 20 min. later, a silent triangular object flew high in the sky at a much faster speed than an aircraft. No sound. It went right overhead, reflecting a light orange/amber hue through a thin mist or haze.....on what looked like a metallic body.

There was not a cloud anywhere in the sky and many hours till the sun would set; the orange/amber hue must have come from the object itself.

I took 3 pictures, all had bright blue sky, no mist or clouds around.

The object went over too fast to capture on my Sony digital camera.

Location: Abita Springs, LA, USA

Shape: Formation


Distant objects in formation visible in sunset photos

Taking photos of a beautiful sunset from my lawn and facing south, nothing unusual was seen through the camera lens.

After downloading from camera to computer, photo number 2 out of 3 showed three round objects. There is a possible 4th object at the tree line on the right side at the very tip of a pointed treetop branch. Zooming in on that area it can be seen and appears much like the 3rd (smallest)object in the formation.

Picture number 1 was taken at 8.13.52 pm CST. No objects in that photo.

Picture number 2 was taken at 8.13.55 pm CST.

This is where the objects appeared in the photo.

Picture number 3 was taken (same view) at 8.14.16 pm CST.

No objects noted.

The widely seen BLACK TRIANGLE UFO

I am almost certain this is the black triangle UFO that many have spotted before. It hovered just above the tree line in Abita Springs for a few mins, I was in my friends car, the passenger seat and him driving. I spotted and he confirmed it was out of the ordinary. From what I can tell, being at night, it was a large, black triangle moving very slowly. There may have been three lights, not sure... was just in awe when I saw it and didn't pay notice to the details. We turned the radio off to see if we could hear anything, but we heard no sound coming from this craft. If it were a regular craft, even with the radio on we'd still be able to hear it. As we drove on it disappeared behind the tree lines, whether it did or disappeared altogether I'm not sure. My brother claims there is an airbase somewhere near because he always hears army helicopters in the sky.

A large triangular craft

While driving home from town at around 10:00 pm down a secluded country rd, we were passing a clear cut of timber land and noticed a bright light to the left. It looked like a long bar of light traveling toward us at a high rate of speed. Startled, I slammed on the brakes and slid to a stop. After leaving the car to get a better view I realized just how big it was. It stopped about 200 feet away from the road at about 100 feet above the ground. It was completely silent. The area below about the size of a football field was lit up almost like day light. The object was about 300 feet wide from left to right and appeared about 40 feet thick from the top surface to the bottom. It hovered there silently for about 1 minute, and the It started to lift and tilt away from us. At that point I could tell it was a very large triangle. I jumped back in the car and spun it around to make chase. The craft accelerated away at what HAD to be supersonic speed. I rushed home and called to police to report the sighting, and when they arrived we were ridiculed. Until that night I never would have believed such things existed.
