Appearance/Description of Object(s)

"Discs were white looking. The discs were not bright, but rather dull white appearance. They definitely were not lights. As a former pilot, I have a good idea what lights look like in the sky inifferent weather conditions. The outstanding observation of the white discs was that they all had some size, and were perfectly placed between each other and in front of each other, making a perfect triangle (in inverted Christmas tree). They did not pulse. They had a constant while glow evenly distrubuted through out the surface."

Size of Object(s)

"The size of the discs probably were at least 100 feet or more."

Description of Area/Surroundings

Full Description & Details

"On Saturday, May 27, 2006, at exactly 9:12 p.m., I walked out of the house in Northbrook, Il., to take my dog for his evening walk. It was a gray overcast evening with temp. in the 70Fs, with possible some rain later in the evening. As I walked out of the house, I looked up in the sky to check the weather and if I should be for short walk in case of rain."

"As I looked up in the sky, there was no visibility of any stars, the sky was dark gray , no stars were visible."

"Aa I looked up in the sky, I noteced three large disc appearing ....located northwest."

"The discs were white translucent, in perfect allignment from each other. I watched the three white discs for about 8 seconds, when another two discs, same size, appeared just in front of the first three discs.....they were spaced away the same distance as the distance between each disc in the first row.........the appearance lasted another approx. 8 seconds, when one more white disc appeared in front of the two. That made a total of six discs arranged in a perfect triangle. The distances between the discs sideways and from each other forward were exactly the same distance. The discs stayed visible for approx. another 8 sconds and then vanished. In about 8 seconds, the two discs appeared again and stayed visible for another approx. 8 seconds and then vanished. I stayed outside for another 15 to 20 minutes, watching the sky, but no further appearance was observed."

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Possible blimp?
