Black Triangle Sighting - late 90's Long Island


Lynbrookian

Paranormal Novice
Hi -

Many years ago I lived on Long Island NY.
One Friday night in October (approx '96 -'97) I was getting out of my car around 11:30pm. Some odd premonition made me throw my knapsack on top of my car and check out the sky. I looked up and saw what appeared to be a large triangle of negative space moving slowly across the sky. This was almost directly over Merrick Rd / Peninsula Blvd in Lynbrook, NY.
This triangle appeared to be very black and downlit, as if lights were shining above it, so I could just make out its outline. I seem to recall if only had a few small running lights in the corners. I'm not claiming it was a UFO but whatever it was, it was silent, flying relatively low - under two thousand feet and seemed large enough for me to question whether our military could've created it. Just wondering if anyone else may have reported anything like this in that area...

I have seen a few vids posted on YouTube that look close to what I recall seeing.

For the record, I'm neither a believer nor disbeliever in UFO's and don't
generally fit under the stereotype of someone New-Agey who believes in any metaphysical things.
