UFO Sightings
by John

When I was around 5, I had just been to a baseball game in the city. When I got home, I stepped out of the car and looked up to see a band of stars above my house. There seemed to be 11 or 12 stars, but I don't think they were spacecraft, but rather something living.

My next sighting was after doing a project for school. My mother was driving two of my friends, with whom I was working, back to their houses. I looked outside to see two dime-sized white orbs about a mile away and 300 feet up. They seemed to be encircling each other, occasionally passing behind a cloud. They continued in this pattern until the friends were out of the car, at which point the orbs flew up VERY quickly until they were mere stars, and turned orange, following me home.

Another less impressive sighting with two other friends was a triangular shaped star just southwest of the moon (if you think of the moon as a compass rose). After going into and later exiting the ice skating rink we were near, the star was gone.

Later, I was at a race car race, which I loathed, and while we were driving back to my home, I saw a boxy craft with a single tail fin and about eight lights on each side about 800 feet up, with one on the tail fin. After that, we stopped at a restaurant when I looked up to see the classic triangle craft with three lights, flying silently over my head about 1,000 feet up. Looking down from fear, I looked up again to see it as a many-lighted plane, yet giving off the "wrong" kind of plane noise, with more of a throbbing sound.

By the way, these were all at night. I had also seen an egg shaped craft, 500 feet up, flying swiftly to the right of me leaving a trail of blue fire behind it.

One daytime sighting was while I was playing a soccer game. I was taking a break for about 10 minutes when I looked up and saw a passenger jet being tailed by a chrome dome (no pun intended) with a plate seemingly fused under it, and another one of those "plates" fused to the first one.
