Details of Incident:
Helicopter like object shoot across the sky like a meteroid, as it was chased by Military
Aircraft, and left a strange trail.
I
awoke to a load nosie, of a low flying F-xx model US Aircraft, in
formation with another jet. It was so close to the ground, I noted it
was in the typical gray livery. This isn't unusal howeverm because I
leave near Minneapolis Internetional Airport, that has a military base,
national gaurd, and Airforce. I glanced at the Gerneral Electric Alarm
Clock which is next to my bedroom window, the Time was exactly 2:54, as
the min just changed. My window is facing north, but I can see a large
view, because its the second story, towards the St. Croix River Valley.
I live on a hillside, and it is very open. It was a clear night, with
moonlight which reflected off the ice and snow. I glanced out my window
to see the typical 777, or other Northwest Airlines Airliner enroute to
the airport on a decent path to MSPIA. however, a loud sound was
rumbling in the vally, the Jets were out of sight at this time. I saw a
object in the distance about 1/2 a mile away from my house. Visabiliy
was very good, and I could see River Falls, Wi, 8 miles from my house,
nice and bright. I saw, what appeared to my at the time (and dismissed
as) a helicopter, hovering with very bright lights, I thought maybe an
accident was on Hwy 29, and it was the MedEvac Helocopter, but this
wasn't any helicopter I have seen before. It was very hard to makeout,
but it was just one very bright light, no green and red tail lights. As
I got out of bed, and looked closer (approch the window) i noted it was
a triangular thing (best way to put it) As I watched this thing hover
back and forth for about one min, the sound of turbine engines got very
loud, enough to wake up my dogs. The military aircraft reversed
direction in a loop and headed towards the light. They very very close
the the ground, but gained altitude quickly. As they flew over my
house, the object got brighter, then shoot like a metoriod accrose the
screen leaving a trail like a con trail left by a jumbo jet, however
this light left a trail that lasted about 30 seconds. A! s the Mi
litary Aircraft approched the trail, they broke formation, and went out
of sight. At first I thought, it was military training, but after I
thought about it more, it was very unual. That day, I was talking about
airplanes with my friend, who lives closer to River Falls, in the Area
of the craft,he saw the formation, and the light, and talked to one of
his friends at the hospital, and their MedEvac helcopter stayed ground
all night. He also saw the trail, and a glow (aura) that stayed in the
area for a good 30 seconds.
