Duration: 2 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Littig/Webberville (between; rural), TX, USA

Shape: Triangle

Giant black triange in rural East Travis County.

Note: I previously made a single report of three separate events. This is a slightly extended report of the most important event. Originally, I reported a 2-4 minute sighting, but it was certainly closer to 2 minutes.

On a dark night, I saw a massive black triangular object creeping silently across the sky, from east to west. This triangle may have been equilateral, but I can't say for sure. One thing I can say for sure is that I could clearly see three defined edges through the darkness. It emitted no light and seemed to be flying low, perhaps the altitude of a helicopter searching for a spot to land. I watched it until it disappeared past the tree line, maybe a football field in total. This is the most amazing sight I have ever seen.

As anyone else would have done, I did some searching on the internet afterward. I was relieved to find out that - after sifting through the garbage - similar sightings are not rare. It is often noted that there is a military base located nearby, and it just so happens that Camp Swift is about 12 miles southeast of my sighting. There is one major difference in my experience, however. Almost all black triangle sightings that I have read about include lights at the corners and sometimes a large red light in the center, but what I saw was completely devoid of light.
