SIGHTING: KAPOLEI, HAWAII (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"We were driving towards the Makakilo exit and my 7 yr old daughter, myself and my daughter-in-law noticed an object in the sky right at the same time. My daughter pointed and said, "mom, what is that"? It looked like an airplane since it had lights flashing and as we watched, there was an aircraft with flashing lights moving horizontal so we assumed this object was either flying towards us or away from us but as we drove closer, the object wasn't moving at all and we realized it was not an aircraft. I was able to video tape the object and I was able to take several pictures. When I got home and reviewed the pictures I took on my phone, the object seemed to big to be a star and the brightness was not as sharp as a star.I emailed the picture to myself and opened it up with a photo viewer and adjusted the brightness, contrast and mid tone and was surprised to see a distinct shape of a square like object with a long gun resembling a tank. I took another picture of a bright object in my house to see if maybe it was my computer that was creating this distinct figure however, there were no lines in the picture of my lamp when I adjusted it the same as the picture of the object.When you look at the original photo, it appears to look like a planet. It looked to big and not as bright as a star. It was also right before sunset and bright light you see in the tree's is the street light and not the moon. It was definitely not the moon and we have never seen a star that close and that big on the west side of the island."
