NUFORC Sighting 17780

Occurred: 2001-05-16 22:00 Local
Reported: 2001-05-24 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 2-3 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Oklahoma City (South West of), OK, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

I was standing on the front porch of my home,which faces south, leaning against the railing and looking at the stars. I saw what looked to be a triangular craft traveling north - northeast at a fairly high rate of speed. There weren't any sounds of aircraft. I didn't notice any lights but could see the outline of the object. I guess I was a little surprised and didn't think to move at first but, in a second or two, ran around the rail and into the yard to see if I could catch another look and I couldn't spot it. I was hesitant to report the sighting because it was such a short one and I had recently watched a program about triangular objects possibly being the stealth blimp (I thought I might just be seeing things). I am usure of the exact night and didn't have any plans of posting this, but I had been to your sight before and as an after thought decided I would check out the sightings and see if there were any recent ones in Oklahoma. You don't need to post this, I just thought it might be helpful in conjunction with the other tringular sightings reported here this month.
