1999-08-05 - Spokane, WA - Triangle

Triangular shaped UFO silently flies over Spokane, Wa. August 5th, 1999

On the 5th of August, 1999, I was lying on my balcony looking up at the stars. At about 1:30 am an object came into view. If I hadn't been looking straight up, I never would have seen it. It blocked out the stars as it flew overhead, but it was not lit up. It made absolutely no sound. I'm not sure just how large it was because I don't know how high it was flying but I could see it well enough to see detail on it. It was as big as a plane would be if it were flying quite low, as if it were going to land soon. I could tell it was metallic because it was reflecting the lights from the city. It was a perfect triangle with rounded corners. It had a circle on each corner as if they were lights, but as I said it was not lit up when I saw it. There was also a circle directly in the middle of the triangle. I froze when I saw it. I watched it fly from east to west until it was no longer in sight. It did not fly very fast, about the same as an airplane, but it was no airplane I've ever seen before. I guess it could have been a secret government craft, but I know it was not like the Stealth or anything like that. It was obvious that it didn't want to be seen. As soon as it was out of sight, I got up and wrote the exact time and date of what I saw in my diary, and I drew a picture of it. The next day I told my mother what I had seen, and she said she had seen the same object the night before, except when she saw it she said it had a green neon glow around it. I would like to know if anyone else saw what I saw around the same time.
