Boomerang Shape Shaped UFO Seen Over Westbrook Minnesota

 

Writing this on phone, apologies will remember how easily an email can get messed up on the phone.

The craft, or energy field, or whatever it was, appeared to be flying on its' side, leading edge being the pointed central "nose" as one might expect; and a near-perfect boomerang shape was the strong lasting impression.

The speed had to have been greater than almost anything around (at least anything officially acknowledged) at that time with the way that it lit up the sky, crossing and simultaneously filling the whole western horizon, flashing or blipping rapidly as it swooshed in a silent splashy zoom across the whole western quarter of the night sky.

 

One of the town jocks and I were both facing west, both said something like "whoa, what was that !" We were not friends and we never spoke of it again. Bravery against ridicule in a small town is tough enough just for being oneself, announcing something anomalous toward which people are generally socialized to be derisive about and which I had no framework for and likely no corroboration of, didn't warrant a second thought for decades.

 

Anyway this thing was oscillating or flashing light/dark at a rhythm maybe comparable to raking a stick along a picket fence at a smooth cruising speed on bicycle and very lit up in its' lighted phase.

 

When I saw the scale of the outlying immensity of the Denver airport, I had a chilling sensation of realization that such craft could potentially be landed there and not much else I could think of could explain flattening and paving such a vast continuous plane in such a mountainous area, just saying'.

Well, my keyboard pulled some annoying shenanigans I've never seen before as I was writing this. I hope it is helpful toward creating a more whole picture eventually and thanks for writing about your experience. It is the most similar sighting I have found in over ten years of occasional search, this time it just came my way via an Astronomy page.

All The Best.

 

Additional Information:

 

Brian, Hi, Good hearing back from you and apologies for the lack of geographical citing.

 

The sighting was in Westbrook, Minnesota (a very small town in Cottonwood County, in the southwestern corner of the State of Minnesota) and 90% sure it was in the western skyline. Westbrook is tiny, the sighting was from the middle of town, which can remain vague while still pinpointing the location somewhat!

 

My memory impression, for lack of a clear memory of the date, etc., is that it was a summer night. Interestingly, I believe we were playing Frisbee with a Glow-In-The-Dark Frisbee, a Moonlighter, a little sticky in the synchronicity department since it was a flying disc and all Space glow, etcetera.

 

It was really cool, it had some similarities to getting to see a meteor close up like I got to once.

 

(That was Colorado, near Larkspur, a couple miles toward Castlerock from Larkspur. I was headed back to Larkspur from Castlerock. It tumbled flashing and disintegrating above me, coming in from behind and shooting ahead and tumbling to pieces in mid-air.)

 

Love to hear updates, all the best!
