Stationary white trapezoidal object seen popping in and out of fast-moving clouds.
Shortly after 12:30 in the afternoon, I had gotten out of my parked car and happened to glance to my left, when I caught sight of a pure white trapezoid-shaped object just above the top of an adjacent portion of the building that was oriented SE-NW to right off from Hoosick Rd. I was at the SE end. The object appeared to be perfectly still within fast-moving low overcast flowing in from the south (left to right in the photo) that sometimes broke up enough for just a few seconds to enable it to be seen, thus popping in and out of view. It appeared to be slightly semitransparent and seemed two-dimensional. It was clearly trapezoid-shaped with straight edges and was about the size a medium-sized jet airplane might appear viewed from a about a mile away and a mile in altitude. I believe the object was either within the upper portion of the cloud deck or at some height above it. Immediately when I saw it, I shifted my head about to make sure it wasn’t a spot or reflection on my glasses I was seeing. But then I was sure it was there when it popped in and out of view. The sighting lasted about 10 seconds, and I waited another couple of minutes to see if it would appear again so I could snap a picture, but the overcast had thickened too much. The object was almost due west and about 15 or 20 degrees above the horizon. It was a slightly wide trapezoid; all straight edges with parallel top and bottom angled slightly down and right; the right edge at about a 90-degree angle to that, and the left edge angled downward to the left at about 135/45-degree angles. Because it seemed two-dimensional, it was as if I was seeing it head on. My reaction to this event was that as soon I saw it, I was sure it was nothing conventional, as it was large enough and clear enough to be interpreted with no doubt.
I’ve included a photo of the view from my vantage point, taken about an hour after I spotted the object. It was almost exactly in the center of the image…just above the top of the building. I’ve also provided a drawing of the outline of the object as I saw it.
