NUFORC Sighting 18169

Occurred: 1982-06-15 02:30 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2001-06-25 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 10 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Seattle, WA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

Triangular object in the sky with movement in the blink of an eye.

It was in the middle of the night. I couldn't sleep and got up. I went to the front door (which had a window in the top of it) to look outside at the neighboring houses. We watched each other's houses to prevent crime. I don't remember the date, or even the year. I thought it was perhaps in the summer time because it was clear outside. I was looking at the surrounding houses and happened to look up in the sky. I was looking between two neighbor's houses. In the sky I saw a triangle of 3 red lights. The triangle seemed to remain in place for a period of time. Then, in the blink of an eye, it moved from one place to another. It didn't drift from one place to another like a balloon or a plane would do. The lights weren't like an airplane's lights. I came to the conclusion that it might be a UFO since I couldn't associate the lights or the movement with anything that I've seen here. I've not seen anything else like it since. This was my first experience with such a sighting.
