Triangle or Delta-Shaped UFOs
Triangle-shaped UFOs, also known as delta-shaped or triangular craft, have become increasingly common in UFO reports.
Dimensions for these craft have been witnessed as varying from the size of a small aircraft, to the size of a football field. The delta is often reported as resembling the wing of an aircraft. The colour of both craft ranges from black, charcoal, metallic and gun metal grey.
Normally they display an orange, white or red light at each point of the triangle, with a much larger light in the centre which often acts as a beam or strobe. The delta and triangular shaped craft have been witnessed to hover for long periods of time and is often seen to point it’s nose downwards while in a stationary position as if observing the spectators.
These craft are capable of travelling at a snail’s pace as well as at great speeds. Noise levels have been reported as a deep throbbing sound and at others as completely silent. Again these two craft do not turn as a normal aircraft might, but have been seen to rotate, especially while hovering.
One intriguing feature of the triangular and delta crafts is that they have been witnessed to suddenly split into two different objects and fly off either together or separately.
Key Characteristics:
- Triangular or delta shape.
- Large, often described as silent.
- Dark or black in color.
- Lights at the corners and sometimes in the center.
Notable Sightings:
One of the most famous triangular UFO sightings occurred in 1989-1990 over Belgium, where hundreds of witnesses, including police officers and military personnel, reported seeing large, silent, triangular craft in the night sky. The incident remains one of the most well-documented mass sightings in UFO history.
New report from Nick In Essex Upminister. date: 23/03/05 Direction : from the North to the South,towards Kent,no Sound
I am just letting you know of the UFO sighting I have seen from my back garden.
It was 10:01 and I was in the garden having a fag when I saw a bright light in the distance.
I thought it was a star at first, then it came over me and split into 3 distinct bright orange triangles.
I thought they were fighter jets by the formation, it was a V.
Its how they moved which made my mind up that they were not planes, they could move at any angle, They darting around. It looked like they were going through each other.
They then went back into formation and what I saw went into one,they then carried on going in the same direction.
All this happened in 3 min. This isn’t the first time I have seen these, the same thing happened about 8 months ago, same place, and nearly the same time.
But that time. they were very low, under the low cloud. They were also darting around all over the place. I saw the hot spots on the corners looked like engines because they were white could be extreme heat?
I am not sure if anyone else around this area have seen these strange shapes in the sky.
New report of possible triangular craft, pursued by helicopters.
A man and his wife were out in the country in Morongo Valley California, near an area know as 29 palms to take some photos of the countryside, when they saw a craft flying very fast from east to west.
The man managed to take a photo of the craft which he thought was triangular shaped, before it flew off into the distance. He also thought the craft was faster than any plane he had seen, except that this craft made no noise.
Actual photo of craft taken by this witness.
On lowering the camera he noticed three helicopters either chasing the first craft or at least going in the same direction, and managed to take a photo of one of the helicopters. He noted that they were green coloured, and made the sound usually associated with helicopters.
One of the helicopters following the anomalous craft.
It was about 10 years ago that I saw the triangular UFO.
I live in South Carolina, and at that time my dad and I used to go to auctions. (They run really late)
We were on our way home. Dad was driving the van, I was in the passenger seat. We had the windows rolled down, and I was in the habit of looking at the sky, to see if I could see anything.
When I first saw the craft, all I saw was a large white light, like a spotlight. I thought it was a helicopter looking for someone.
I kept looking at it, as it appeared to be moving in the same direction as we were. As we got closer, I could see it was not a helicopter and thought perhaps it was a plane. Maybe it was in trouble, so I still kept looking at it.
It still appeared to be going in same direction as we were, then it sped up and went in front of us, quite a ways down the road.
I could still see the white light that had first drawn my attention. As we continued down the road, we saw it was hovering over the road! It was just over the trees, and as we went under it I stuck my head out the window to see if it was a new plane, helicopter or what.
The only sound that I heard was from the van I was in. If it made a sound, it was not a loud one. What I saw is difficult for me to describe. Even though I see the craft clearly in my mind’s eye, it is like there is a block that comes when I try to describe it,but here goes.
The craft was triangular in shape. It was large enough that when we went under it, I could not see the sky. There were 3 points (naturally), but one point was pointing away from the road to the right. The other 2 were on the same side, on the opposite side of the road. The white light that I had seen initially was slightly off center, and was not pointing directly down, but off to the right. Because of this I was able to see the underbelly of the craft.
There were sections, I do not know how to describe what was in the section. The point that was pointing away from the road was lit-up. There were strips from the tip back the entire length from the lit-up section. There were also curved strips going the opposite way like support for it or something. I got the impression it was the ‘cockpit.’ I do not know why.
I do not remember coming out the other side. If there was a time loss, there wasn’t much of one, or I did not notice it. I have tried talking to my dad about it, to get his opinion. He would not talk about it.
Since his accident last year, my dad does not remember it. I did not know what to think since before that I thought all UFOs were saucer or cigar shaped.
I have seen a photo of a triangular UFO that looks ALMOST like the one I saw. They had it labeled the Belgium UFO. Since, I have found out that UFOs fitting my description are seen a lot overseas Since my sighting, I have been trying to get all the info I can about this kind of UFO.

DARK TRIANGULAR UFO HOVERS OVER IDAHO CAMP
Many rational people believe we are not alone in the universe. Three hunters in an unspecified location near Challis, Idaho (population 1,100) learned for themselves on the night of Friday, October 27, 2000 that this theory may hold water.
The report revealed that an individual spotted a dark triangular object floating silently above him while he was standing by his pickup truck.
The hunter said he and his three buddies were in dry camp, so alcohol couldn’t be blamed for what he and two of the others saw. The individual said that as he approached his pickup at about 9:45 p.m., he ‘got a feeling of a thick, heavy blanket above me and chills down my spine.’ He said he shined his flashlight on the dark triangular object floating directly above us and our camp trailer.” The man fell into profane disbelief and then called for his buddies to come see for themselves.
He said he could see the rounded dark edges and the flat bottom that had a texture like suede leather and was colored gold-gray. He said that after he shined his light on the object, it throttled up with a deep low sound of intense power and floated straight up and then forward up a steep canyon, moving like a hockey puck sliding on ice. The other party members grabbed their binoculars to check it out until it moved out of sight.
The account said that as the object throttled up, three lights, one at each corner of the triangle, came on. Each one was about 10 feet (3 meters) in diameter and glowed like a dim dome light. Another light in the center was described as being 20 feet (6 meters) in diameter, protruding below the bottom of the object about eight feet (2.3 meters), was deep red and pulsed at (a rate of) once a second.
The outline of the entire object had a light halo around it. The shape, wrote the hunter, was a perfect triangle, radiant corners and rounded edges. There was no smell, no feeling of blowing, no prop wash or thrust of any kind.
Report 3
Uk Report.
It was dusk, the sky was clear but with slight patchy cloud. The stars were visible but the sky was not dark yet. I was sitting on a seat in the garden just looking at the sky. It was a quite a warm evening for September in the UK
We are about 25 miles from our local airport, which is East Midlands, and I had noticed 2 or 3 commercial planes with vapour trails, and their wing and tail lights flashing at high altitude flying north and south. The garden faces in a south westerly direction.
As I looked directly above me I noticed a vee or delta formation of lights. There were at least 10 to 15 lights on either side of the delta shaped. The delta shape was static with no engine noise at all. It kept this position for 4-5 seconds as if it were scanning the area or me. I didn’t take my eyes of the shape, the lights appeared to be green/yellow in colour and they did not appear to be round, more oval in shape.
The delta had no back or form as in a triangle, just the delta wing as I could see the sky directly behind the lights. The delta shape then moved slowly across the sky for just a second or two, then the movement was so rapid I could not track with the human eye. It did not disappear at the front of my eyes, it was just as if it went faster than my eyes could react. The position of the delta was north to south. To me it looked like it was tracking or mapping the area and something made it stop so it could be monitored. I would say it would be travelling faster than light.
Report 4
March 4, 1988 was a clear, crisp night. The stars were clearly visible, especially to the north over the lake where there are no city lights. Venus and Jupiter were bright and in close proximity to each other in the western sky. At about 6:30 P.M., S.B. (Name withheld) and her children were driving home to Eastlake along the lake shore when they observed a large blimp-like object with lights at each end, hovering over the lake and rocking up and down like a “teeter totter.” One light was brighter than the other and was strobing.
On arriving home, she asked her husband to accompany her to the beach about 200 yards north for a closer view of the object which she described as “larger than a football field at arm’s length.” She and her husband walked onto the beach. The noiseless object was gun metal grey and seemed to cause the ice on the lake to rumble and crack loudly in an unusual way which frightened her. The witnesses had to shout to be heard by each other, and were surprised that no dogs were out barking as would have been expected. After observing the object for a while, the couple became concerned for the safety of their children in the car when the object revolved slowly about 90 degrees, coming almost overhead (about 1/4 mile high) and pointing its “front” end down toward them.
They drove the children home (which was only one street up from the lake) and continued watching the object from their living room window which faces the lake. A neighbour was phoned and she and her son went to the beach, reporting the same thing. They took photographs which did not turn out (others from elsewhere would). The object began to descend and the witnesses returned to the beach, where it was now observed to have red and blue blinking lights. It emitted 5 or 6 noiseless, intensely bright yellow triangular lights from its side. Mr. B. noticed a brighter light at the apex of the triangles. They intermittently hovered around the larger object, darted and zigzagged into the night sky at velocities far in excess of known aircraft. Mr. B stated the noiseless triangular objects were smaller than a one-seat Cessna and travelled 50 mile stretches low over the ice in the “snap of a finger.” They were said to be able to approach the shore, turn abrupt right angles due east toward a Power Plant about 12 miles away, climbing rapidly and returning again, all within several seconds.
By this time, a Coast Guard patrol vehicle had arrived on the beach in response to S.B.’s several phone calls. The triangular objects came closer to the shore, causing the witnesses to become concerned that the lights on the Coast Guard vehicle would attract the objects and the lights were turned off. The triangles continued to fly off at high speed northward over the lake and eastward toward the Power Plant. About an hour later, they returned one at a time into the large ship, which then landed on the ice. Several multicolored lights now came on for about 5 minutes on the bottom of the object “in a wave like a movie theatre sign.” When these went off, the ice stopped making noise and everything became “dead silent.” The object could no longer be seen within about a half hour and it was assumed to have gone below the surface. The next day, huge pieces of broken ice were observed in the area of the landing.
The Coast Guard informed Mr. and Mrs. B the following day that the Army and NASA had instructed them not to investigate the matter further or go out on the lake in their cutter to observe the ice in the area of the landing, since the matter was “out of their league and out of their hands.” They informed the couple that all information was being forwarded to Wright Patterson Air Force Base and a facility in Detroit, Michigan. In response to a Coast Guard inquiry, Wright-Patterson refused to confirm or deny any interest in these activities
Report 5.
On Saturday evening just after dark on November 18, 1995 an arrowhead-shaped UFO was spotted to the east approx. 100 yards. From Davis Ridge Road hovering just above tree top level, shinning a beam downward behind the neighbour’s home.
It was motionless and totally silent. It had a light at each corner and the beam came from the centre. It was approx. 40′ x 25′. After I got out it started moving west at about 5 mph. We followed until it descended behind a ridge out of sight about a half mile away.
The neighbour’s had cattle out back. I also work as the founder and administrator of a satellite and high altitude survey and mapping oriented organization that provides information about new technology for discovering natural resources and minerals, surveying, guides, and related issues. I’ll take any test to prove the validity of my observation. My family is highly respected in the community as honest and truthful.
On one Saturday evening just after dark the black, arrowhead-shaped UFO was hovering silently as it cast a cone-shaped beam into the neighbour’s back yard. We couldn’t see what it was shining on as it was behind the crest of the high-ground behind the house where the cattle were kept. I got out of the car which was stopped in the middle of the road and looked over the roof at the UFO in astonishment. It was completely silent. It had a light at each corner underneath and the beam came from the bottom center of the craft.
Apparently, we were spotted too, and the UFO turned the beam off. Then it proceeded at a low speed (approx. 5 mph) to the west. We were observing the Ufo eastward from Davis Ridge Road at first. It came almost directly over us. It was about 80′ off of the ground. It continued west and we turned the car around and followed. The road ran north and south though, and by the time we were heading west coming off the ridge we saw it descend below a ridge to the west of us.
We saw it no more. The whole affair lasted about 15 minutes. Everyone in the car saw it. We all had gotten out to see it before we jumped back in to pursue it. I got the impression that the occupants of the craft couldn’t care less if we saw it that night, as it seemed to be in no hurry for the most part.
Report 6
Black triangle 1996 Essex England
I saw this UFO in 1996 when I lived in Clacton-On-Sea, there was a Chinese spy satellite due to come down so the light in the sky drew my attention.
I did some quick research on the web and found the Satellite came down on March 12 1996 at 11:05pm EST. As I recall, I saw the UFO at about 5.30pm UK time and I think the satellite had come down around midday but I didn’t know this at the time of the sighting. I was walking home from the bus stop after college, it was dark but the street lights were still an orange colour as they were still warming up. I glanced up at the moon and a light to the right of it caught my eye, it was the same colour orange as the street lights but was bigger and at about twice their height.
I stopped and stared at it, trying to figure out if it was a light on a crane or something but as well as being illuminated it also seemed to have a spherical metallic surface and I started to think maybe it was a helium balloon. Then it started to move, it floated up with a slight arc (not straight up) and seemed to be swallowed up by darkness. I lost sight of it and continued walking, still looking up in case I could see it again. I then noticed some small misty white lights above me, as I looked at them I suddenly realised that they were arranged around the sides of a huge black shape which was blocking out the stars. I’m about 95% sure that it was triangular, it definitely had straight edges and there were 5 lights as I remember.
The object pretty much filled my whole field of vision which combined with the fact that it was a black object against a black sky made it hard to be 100% sure about the number of sides. There was also a rectangle of light in the center but it was like light reflecting off a flat raised section rather than a light source, the long edges of the rectangle were sharp and the short ones were more diffuse. The object passed directly over me from right to left, rotating very slowly. It was completely silent, and I’d estimate it was flying or rather floating at roughly treetop level. Altitude and size are pretty hard to judge from below but I would estimate it was about the size of a house and the orange sphere was about the size of a beach ball or maybe a bit bigger. The triangle(?) slowly gained altitude and I lost sight of it as it passed over the houses to my left.
I kept looking for it as I continued home but all I saw were the lights from normal air traffic which were at a much higher altitude than the object I had seen. I kept an eye on the local press for a few weeks afterwards but I am not aware that anyone else saw this object.
