Location: Guerneville, CA, USA

Characteristics: Lights on object, Landed

It occurred late at night when i happened to be gazing at the stars on a clear night. i was looking all the big stars towards the north when i noticed one of them was moving. At first i figured it was just a plane high in the sky, but then realized that it wasn't traveling in a straight line nor moving at one speed. Plus it had no sound. The object would move down, then stop and hold its position. it did this a few times until it made it down to i'd say about 500ft. and about 1 mile from me. It then hovered up and down in a line for a few minutes, before lowering behind tall trees out of my view. As it got closer to me i noticed that it had 5 lights. 3 bright whites in a triangle and 2 dim colored lights on the top and bottom. It was a long time ago but i remember it well. I've always wondered if anyone else had seen this object. Thats what compelled me to report this old sighting. you never know. I do have another witness to prove i'm not crazy.
