Date: April 21, 2009
Time: Approx: 9:35 to 9:50 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Scottsville, Va.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of Objects: 1
Shape of Objects: Too dark to know for sure, possibly triangular or cylindrical.
Full Description of Event/Sighting: My mom and brother had just pulled into the driveway outside my house and were hanging out in the car until about five minutes later, when they caught sight of an object with two pale yellow lights in the sky. It remained stationary for around thirty seconds after they spotted it, but then it slowly started moving southwest.
My brother ran around to the front porch, tapped on the window, and yelled for me to get my camera and come outside. Thinking it probably wasn't anything different from the red, white, and green stationary lights we'd been seeing, I took my time and showed up outside a few minutes later. It was chilly, so I stayed on the porch. He kept watching the sky and told me the object had passed over the house, but after several seconds, he called out to me, saying that it was visible from the front yard again.
So I ran from the porch and out into the yard, he pointed it out to me, I saw the pale yellow lights, and they were blinking. I kept my eye on it but told my brother it was probably nothing more than a plane. He insisted that it wasn't, and I continued watching, snapping a couple pictures and trying to tape some of it as I did so. It was a clear night, lots of stars out and things traveling across the sky that obviously were planes, and, just briefly, I was able to make out some sort of shape. It was very vague in the darkness, but it appeared to be quite large and somewhat triangular in shape. It didn't appear to be traveling at as high an altitude as the planes were but didn't make a sound, as low-flying planes are apt to do. It continued on the same path, and slowly disappeared over our neighbor's house and into the night. I can still see the possibility of it being a plane, but my mom, brother, and I have never seen a plane move the way this object moved. Even though the lights blinked in a way similar to a plane's lights, none of us have seen lights like that before either.
I've uploaded a couple of the best pictures from what I was able to capture to Photobucket and provided the links below, but be warned: even though these are the best from the set, my camera has a tendency to blur photos without a tripod to steady it, and as a result, the photos are very poor in quality and hardly worth looking at, in my opinion, but I figured I'd provide them for anyone interested. Also, there's a chance the blur could be responsible, but the object appears to be cylindrical instead of triangular in the photos. Here are the links:

If anyone saw the same thing or something similar to it last night or at any other time, I'd love to know. Thanks for reading.
Thank you to the witness for their sighting report.
