Well, I looked up and a bit to the south of our house about maybe half a mile up (maybe less), I saw what was a pretty good sized object that in hindsight reminded me of one of those triangular objects. At first I just kind of shrugged it off and went back inside. Then I realized how slow it was going and that I really didn't hear any sound (it was low enough I should have heard the engines). I went back out and it was gone. Still can't say it was anything but a jet or plane, but for some reason I keep going back to that night and wondering.

Hill AFB, Utah 1985 During war games at Hill AFB, Utah, I was standing out on the flightline, guarding the perimeter, the entry-access control point. The rest of the base was in black out conditions, with black plastic over the windows of the buildings. All of the sudden, an aircraft or an airship was above me, of unknown origin. It was the biggest aircraft I have ever seen, completely silent and moved approximately ten miles an hour, almost floating. It was triangular, no visible engines, no markings, gun metal black. It essentially looked like it could fly in space. And when it accelerated, it leaped frog; that it is to say, it blinked out and reappeared farther away. It basically disappeared when it accelerated.

There were lights: white on each corner and a center light that changed from red to blue. It was pretty incredible. The amazing thing was, our windows were down, and there was no sound. If it was a government ship, it was a hell of an engineering triumph to be that close to it and not hear it. It was nearly directly above us.

Nice VVV- Amazing close encounter! I imagine there was some words on the porch after it was gone. Maybe how long it was there and did the others "feel" it?
Did it leave a mark on the ground?
Did it take off with a force that would kill a mortal?
