SIGHTING: COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"Its about 10 after 1am, and i am watching the taurid meteor shower, which radiates from almost 90 degrees up from my location at this time. my gaze went a little east of the pleiades, when i watch 3 dim lights start to form or brighten moving slowly north west, then as they brightened, they clearly formed an equilateral triangle a black shape was also obvious, even against the sky. it quickly began to accelerate faster than military aircraft normally and went northwest at a very high rate of speed. the second i started to loose site of it, i started hearing a distant hum, almost like when a c17 or other cargo craft is on approach to peterson airforce base, but a lot more high pitched and costant until it was no longer visible. i live near the base/airport and was in the military and am familiar with the various types of aircraft that fly in this area. we had b1 bombers flying swept wing with afterburners on a few days ago, and they werent even going half the speed this craft i observed was. there were other aircraft flying to the south and east of this one, those of which could easily be made out to be passenger craft, as they have the red/green blinking lights. and it definitely wasnt a satelite or the iss, as the iss doesnt travel south to north and iridium satelites do not travel at that speed and do not brighten for that length of time. dont what it was, just know what it wasnt.
