Who knew a little
star gazing would yield a chevron UFO!
As New York City dwellers,
Claudia and her 13 year old son both enjoyed a little star gazing. It was late
October 2004, and this night was special: there was going to be a lunar
eclipse. So mother and son made an extra effort to see nature’s show. They went
to New York’s Central Park in a place near Strawberry Fields.
In the park, mother and son took
turns with a set of binoculars looking at the moon as well as other celestial
sights. Claudia had just begun her turn with the field glasses when she
remarked to her son, “What the hell is that?”
“Up in the sky, about as high as
an airplane would fly over Manhattan, at a 45 degree angle to the south away
from the eastern-rising moon, were two separate V-shaped solid gray metallic
objects, flying side by side, not touching, same speed, apex pointed directly
due south.”
Claudia’s son took a confirming
look and noted that neither chevron UFO had any visible lights or were making
any discernible sound. Claudia tells us that the two chevrons were clearly
visible against the black, cloudless sky with the city lights and moonlight
reflecting their V shape and grayish color.
“They moved together, silently,
steadily across the sky toward midtown. We lost sight of them in the lights
over mid-Manhattan. Whole sighting episode couldn’t have lasted longer than two
minutes.”
The next day Claudia read a news
report that described what her and her son had seen, “I knew that we had seen
the same thing.”
LET’S LOOK AT SOME RECENT UFO SIGHTINGS IN NEW YORK
SKIES:
21 February 2015: at about 11:50 p.m. a
motorist in Phelps, NY was driving home from work and saw a light in the sky
and when we got closer to it, it was very low to the ground and doing circles.
He stopped the car and the object “bolted off” at abnormal speed, not like an
airplane or a jet.
25 February 2015: at about 8:30 p.m. a
Syracuse resident reports watching a bright object in western sky for
about 15 minutes. The observer says it looked like it was pulsating but not
moving. He reports that he looked away for a sec and it was gone.
