so its about 3am here in hawaii and i was up doing my Ikariam stuff when I heard a loud strange noise outside. The noise sounded something like a commercial airplane flying really low to the ground. Planes don't usually fly that low here and they don't usually make that much noise. Well, it didn't really bother me at first, but after 4-5 minutes of that noise i decided to go outside onto my balcony to check it out ( i live on the 11th floor in a condo). Had my glasses on, i looked into the sky and i could see strange lights flashing... they were about the same size as the stars in the sky but it was arranged in a strange formation. I know they were not stars because all the lights seem to blink the same way. And since there were stars that night, i was able to compare real stars to the blinking lights to determine that the blinking lights were not stars. These strange lights seems to form a line across the sky and each "set" of light consists of 2 blinking lights which blinks alternately. they were moving across the sky towards the north direction. On the far right side of the formation, i could see one single blinking light trying to "catch up" to the rest of the formation, which i think thats the light that was making all the strange noise. At this point, i must have been standing there for a good 2 minutes or so staring strangely at these blinking lights. The next thing i thought to myself was, "crap! i should record this", so i ran into my room and grabbed my digital camera and went back out on the balcony. Only took me about 20-30 sec to get the camera and went back to the balcony. But at this point, the blinking lights were already way up north and was almost out of sight.... i could only see the last 2 sets of blinking lights blinking and decided not to take the picture since it was too dark and my camera was probably not going to pick up the image anyways.... it was weird.

wonder what it was.

cliff:
1. 3 am, heard strange noise outside and went to check it out.
2. Saw strange blinking lights across the sky.
3. went to grab the camera to document what i saw (even though i probably couldn't get the images since it was too dark).
4. came back out and the lights were practically gone (went towards the northern direction).
5. posting on ATOT

my paint drawing of what i saw.

I think UFOs are cool. I think there is life out there...but I don't know if we've been visited. Perhaps...but I think shows on UFOs are cool.

i wanna add this to this thread. i took these pics about a year, year and a half ago.... it lingerered in our sky for over an hour, and to the naked eye it looked like the star of david, but if you looked REALLY close at it you could almost see what seemed to be a gyroscopet type setup around it, like you know those things use to test G-force where they strap you in and you spin youself in an direction (i hope you know what im talking about)



anyway, here's the pics:

notice the stars are in focus, i rested the camera on my car to ensure the camera was stable.

Prolly just an aircraft of some sort, you got any military bases nearby. They love to play tricks on the populace, especially the air force.

Besides they have all sorts of strange craft that the general public does not know about. I actually think the UFO looking craft from the 50-60s looks pretty cool. Even though it was highly impractical.

My money is on a test flight for some kind of stealth fighter/bomber.
