Hi Brian, I would like to report something strange last night- on August 26th, 2010. At about 9:40pm I came outside with some garbage. Sticking out like a sore thumb in the night sky there's this really bright white light moving close across the clear night sky. It looked slightly oblong in length of light. It looked like a diamond glistening of sheer pure white brightness.
Like white strands from the outside. The center part in the middle was the brightest section. As I watched in disbelief for 10-15 seconds as it moved closer, so I opened the side door and yelled for my oldest son to come out and see what it could be ? I closed the door and continued to watch it's behavior in flight.
It was moving slower than a Cessna and flying quite low, maybe a few thousand feet in attitude if that. It was on a straight flight path and could see a slight white illumination outside even the white light. There was no sound at all, which added to the freaky part in watching.
There were no other coloured lights to be seen or any flashing. After about 20 seconds, my son came out. He also watched and said, due to the speed, Helicopter Dad. I then said, do you hear a helicopter? He did not say anything and continued to watch closely for about 30 seconds until it was out of sight.
He then said cool and went back in the house. This thing was less than a quarter mile away south and moved from west to east. It's not only the slow thing that was strange, but yet no sound? There were not any flashing lights on it, just a solid glistening white light gliding overhead slow with no sound !
Please, if anyone has witnessed this type of aerial anomaly, slow white moving light, please do report this if you witnessed it! I'm now real curious what it could have been? Maybe a military drone ? Thanks for your open ear in this matter.

The World for People who Think
I've seen many of these outside my back garden nearly every night the sky is clear. Some are fairly dim but occasionally you'll see a real big one, nearly 4-5 times the size of the brightest star in the sky. For the last few months I have being watching them trying to figure out what they are.The speeds at which they move vary. For all the world they just look like a star in the sky until you notice that they are moving. They generally move in one direction zig-zagging here and there. Once I saw 3 smaller star-like objects shoot out of the the bigger one in different directions and then they all seemed to form a triangle formation and fly off in the same direction. There is never any sound either. I took a video of one of the bigger ones but it was off my mobile phone so although you can see this object everything else is pitch black! I reckon there has to be many others who have seen these objects cause like I said, on any clear night I'm guaranteed to see at least 3 every half an hour or so. Does any one have an explanation ruling out what these things are?
