| Dimly lit triangular shaped object moves slowly high above Carlsbad State Beach Sat. evening 12/29/07 Four adults and 2 children witnessed a strangely lit, triangular shaped object quietly traverse the night sky above Carlsbad State Beach. It was a cold clear evening. The stars were bright and the visibility was excellent. It was large, triangular shaped, very dimly lit (unlike the stars that were sharp and bright) and quiet. It moved just east of the shoreline from north to south. The object then turned approximately 45 degrees toward the east. It traveled a short distance then disappeared. We did not see it move away rapidly, rather it just vanished or we lost sight of it. The duration was 3 to 5 minutes. We saw a light that could have been a small aircraft behind it. It seemed to follow it for a distance. Both of these objects appeared to be fairly low in the sky, like the altitude of large aircraft. |
