http://www.examiner.com/x-2363-UFO-Exam ... iner-email ==>> An Ohio witness watched unusual lights moving below the tree line of a ridge when the object suddenly appeared directly above, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.

The shape of the object reminded the witness of "stealth fighter planes," but that seemed to be ruled out by its low altitude, silence, and the fact that the bottom of the object was completely lit up.

The object semed to be following this witness, but later noticed it seemed to gain altitude, and when a turn was made - the witness looked and the object was gone from view.

Also look at Joseph Capp's recent blog about Tips before and after you see a UFO. Neat stuff. And this case update just in from: NJ, November 26, 2009 - Very bright white light followed by another very bright white light. MUFON Case # 20740. NJ Field Investigator Kristen Ann Winslet reports that the object was determined to be a balloon from a NYC parade earlier in the day; based on wind, distance, and the parade balloons used.

Following is the unedited and uninvestigated report from MUFON. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or manmade. If Ohio MUFON State Director William Jones investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update.

OH, November 23, 2009 - Triangular shaped aircraft hovered above me for almost 5 minutes. It was at just above tree top level as far as I can tell. MUFON Case # 20867.

As soon as I had made a left turn onto one of the back roads heading home from work, I immediately noticed two bright lights hovering over my neighborhood in the distance. It was approximately 1:30 a.m. on November 23, 2009.

The reason these lights caught my attention is because after living in this area for over 30 years I know every shadow, every light, which lights are street lights, and which lights belong to the homes there. I am very much aware of my surroundings, and I know what belongs and what doesn't. These lights didn't belong.

As soon as I noticed these lights, they started moving across toward the east toward the road I was on. The lights originally started out south west of me. They were just below the tree line of a wooded ridge situated ahead. That ridge is approximately 80 to 100 ft. high so this thing was fairly low. When these lights were directly up ahead of me, I remember thinking this can't be a ufo, and with that thought, all of a sudden a craft appeared above me as if to show me that they were there. The entire bottom of the thing was lit up, and I could see the original set of lights on the craft, but I don't remember seeing these lights fly toward me. The nose of the craft was pointed north. As I stared up at this thing through my windshield in disbelief, I had a feeling that I had seen it before but couldn't remember when or where.

As it hovered at just above tree top level above me, I continued driving although I did slow down a bit. I was dividing my attention between the craft and the road, the whole time trying to figure out what it was. I remember thinking that the shape reminded me of one of our stealth fighter planes, but it could not have been. First, why would it be flying in our neighborhood that low, and second, I don't think it would have been that well lit up. I don't remember hearing any sound, and as I made my way to the first street on the right, I noticed that this craft was staying with me. It was as if it were watching me. After making my turn, I had to lean forward to get a good view of the craft and noticed that it seemed to be higher up in the sky than before, and it's nose was pointed east. I didn't see it change direction as I had to divide my attention between this craft and my driving. A few seconds later the craft disappeared. I didn't see it leave, and I couldn't see any sign of it in the sky. No lights. Nothing.

I have searched the internet trying to find something that would at least come close to matching what I saw. The closest thing I can find is the stealth fighter F-117 Nighthawk, but the similarities are in shape only with still a few differences. It was triangular, and the back end was curved inward, and I don't remember seeing anything that would indicate tail wings. I was looking up at it so all I saw was the bottom of the craft. The two lights I saw originally were situated toward the front end of the craft and were inside a dark oval shape that looked like it was recessed. There were other details like lines and how they were placed is a little fuzzy in my memory, and for the exception of those lines and that oval shape, the entire bottom was brightly lit.

I can't recall our military having anything that can hover like that, or disappear the way this thing did, and I would think that it would have been too dangerous for any aircraft to be flying in as low as this one did.

I have not reported this to the police. I didn't think they would believe me, but I have told my co-workers and family members. One of my co-workers told me that she has a neighbor she teases a lot because she claims she sees ufos in this area almost on a daily basis around 5:00 a.m. So, it seems that our area might possibly be a hot bed for ufo activity, and I've never noticed it before.

I'm sorry but Mufon is Government paid Nazis.. at least the investigators are.

Hey Forrestgrove 111, the reason I'm posting this, is we saw something very similar to what you saw, here at our home in NY back in August 2006.
We had just gotten home from a little road trip to see a good long-time friend who plays drums for a famous rock band from the 80's. After settling in, we all (my fiance & our dog) retired to the deck out back. We had been sitting there for about 15 mins, she was sitting at the deck-table, I was stretched out in a deck chair with my head back and resting it on the deck rail. (Doggy on her outdoor pillow.)
It was about 8:00ish, the sun was setting and you could almost start to see a few of the brighter stars in the sky. I was looking up at the apex of our roof, noticing that a family of bees had made the start of a bee-hive under edge of the roof, when all of the sudden, a craft, (and that's all I could call this,...a..nuts and bolts, solid, piece of machinery/hardware.....thing.) that at first, moved rather slowly into view right above the house. Approx. 200 ft above the top of the big oak tree on the side of our driveway. And like I said, it was moving maybe a little faster than a hot air balloon.
It was triangular, with a sharp pointed front end, and the back, both corners were somewhat more rounded. (just like your ship/craft) Dark amber colored lights on the back two corners, and a bright white light on the underside of the pointed tip. (At first i thought it was a stealth fighter, just like your ship/craft) It was a "thick" black color, like a deep flat black, (but 'blacker'?) and it had three separate "vents" on the bottom, two on the right, side by side, that were parallel to the right edge, and a third one, on the left side, middle, parallel to the edge. I saw it first, my fiance noticed it a few seconds after I did. We sat there staring at it and each other. I said, "you do see that right?". All of the sudden we both could feel like a "static charge" in the air and our dog must have noticed it too, she jumped up and ran (tail between her legs) into the house. We watched this thing for a few seconds and it started moving faster (heading east) and it seemed to move from about 20mph, to a speed, that if you blinked you would've missed it. She was freaking, I was freaking, the dog was freaking. It was, to say the least, a very strange night at our house that night and after that.
By the way, the house next to ours, is a rental and we've gone through a few different families since we've lived here. Our last neighbor, after he and his wife moved in and we got to be 'neighborly', I asked him (just in idle chat, one day) what he did for a living, he told me he worked at the "radar center" for (omitted Govt Contractor name). He seemed like a pretty cool guy, so I told him about the incident 8 months ago. He all of the sudden gives me a very funny look and cut our chat short. Soon after that (and my fiance noticed it too), he and his wife avoided us like the plague. They used to be very friendly and after our talk he and his wife avoided us at all costs. they would still say "hi" but, no conversation, no 'can I borrow your hedge trimmer' or 'a cup of sugar' which, that's how it was at first, Soon after that, they moved. My father was career military, and his take on this whole incident was, we saw something we weren't supposed to and that our neighbor knew something. (My Father jokingly asked us if we had had any visits from any "Men in Black" or if we were being followed when we left the house) We both are pretty ordinary people, who live an ordinary life, who saw something very "extra-ordinary". Except for the neighbor part of "our" incident, it sounds alot like "your" incident and what you saw....
thanks for reading.........Kirk out.

Good one Gump!
