Partner and I went outside to watch the meteor shower at 10:00pm. At ~11:00pm we saw a large, transparent craft making waves of light.
I’m a skeptic, but open minded when something defies my understanding. This is one of two unexplainable physical objects I’ve perceived outside of dreaming and experimenting with substances. This is also the first sighting I’ve had with another person present and aware.
My partner and I went out at 10:00pm on Saturday (August 13th) to watch the Perseid meteor shower in his backyard (located in Somerville, Massachusetts). It was surprisingly clear, and we saw a total of three meteors heading south before rotating our lawn chairs at 11:00pm. My partner went to chat with our neighbor at her door while I pleaded for him to return (I was giddy at witnessing two more impressive meteors shooting southwest). He returned and immediately commented on the neighbors outdoor lights—and how they were not automatically turning off at a reasonable hour—when I perceived something big flying overhead in the opposite direction of the previously observed meteors. I said, “is that a bird?” before realizing that it did not resemble anything I had ever seen before. My question prompted my partner to silently observe with me. The object was almost plane shaped, but somewhat transparent like matte plastic. It was catching some light—I could make out it’s overall shape—but light or electricity seemed to cascade off of it in waves or sparks (like when you push your hand through water). I remember cursing when it suddenly changed direction. It flew faster than anything I have seen in the sky, and it did not obey the laws of gravity or momentum. The weirdest part—that still haunts me—is that it made no noise. It flew overhead in a matter of seconds, and changed direction in ~15 degree increments about four times before leaving sight. For a moment I hesitated. Then, my partner and I started talking over each other. “What was that? A bird? No, right? It was transparent. Light was cascading off of it. It changed directions!” Within 15 minutes we were both trying to pretend nothing happened. “Nobody would believe us” was my first thought, and my partner basically lost interest in trying to have conversations about it. The lack of noise and observable detail prevented any guess as to its size or altitude, but subjectively it seemed like a plane that had taken off a few minutes before.
That’s basically my entire report—I need to get some rest before work tomorrow—but, my partner and I do believe whatever we saw was entirely real (although unrealistic). It looked like a hologram or CGI, and I think it will have a massive impact on my life for the next several years at least.
