Initial data
Eyewitnesses saw a triangular-shaped object flying to the southeast. He was moving faster than the plane. It looked like an isosceles triangle: the two longest sides were illuminated with at least 6 lights each, and the shortest side appeared dark/transparent. It was the size of two and a half moons. He moved silently low over the horizon

"We saw a triangular-shaped object traveling south-east. It was moving faster than an airplane. It was similar to an isosoleis triangle; the two longest sides were lined with at least 6 lights each and the shortest side appeared dark/transparent. It appeared to be as large as 2½ moons. It was silently traveling low in the horizon."

[EDITOR'S NOTE: UFOEvidence.org received a second, similar report from almost the same location, about three weeks later. That report from Paducah, Kentucky (less than 50 miles from Murray) on September 30, 2005, also described a triangular-shaped craft. Please see the full case, including sketches by the witnesses, at the following URL:

Paducah, Kentucky, the location of that case, is the site of the only operating uranium enrichment facility in the United States. Owned by the U.S. Department of Energy, it is leased and operated by the United States Enrichment Corporation (USEC). According to USEC, the facility "produces low-enriched uranium fuel for commercial nuclear power plants in the United States and around the world."]
