SIGHTING: WEST JEFFERSON, NC

Witness Testimony

" High altitude triangle object with lighted corners seen over West Jefferson, NC.I was working late at my computer and needed something from my truck, so I stepped out in the driveway to get it. I then paused for moment and looked up at the sky, as I am always sky watching when I have the opportunity. My field of vision was somewhat limited due to surrounding trees. As I looked up I saw a star that was slightly brighter than the surrounding starts. As I stared at it my eyes began to focus and a realized that it was rotating slightly. It was a triangle with a white light on each tip and a red light in the center It rotated both to the right and left but remained in a constant position. I would guess its altitude to be near 40,000 feet. There was no sound heard.As I watched I tried to see if there was any directional movement but could not see any. I then picked three brighter stars as reference points and located the object slightly off center of the middle of the triangle. I looked away for a while and looked back up to note that the object had moved from slightly off center to a position just inside the perimeter line between two of the reference stars. I went out today, a day later, nearly the same time and could not see any objects within the reference triangle of stars.I would add one more unusual item. While watching the object rotating in position I heard a buzz near me. It sounded like a cell phone on vibrate or a fuel pump in a car. After about five minutes I heard it again. My cell phone was in the house and I had in my hand a fully discharged Ipod. I could not tell where the sound came from. I was standing next to a 2001 CRV which was near the direction of the sound. "
