The Black Triangle from the Cloud
One October evening in 2023, a man watching the stars around Colorado Springs saw a pixelated grey cloud release a huge black triangle with a red light at each corner, which he says accelerated to perhaps Mach 1 or 2 without a sound. A minute later his wife told him his voice on the phone sounded robotic. This is the record of what he told the FBI, not a verdict on what came out of the cloud.
◆ THE SHORT VERSION
- The Black Triangle from the Cloud is a reported UAP case in Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA, October 2023.
- A man near Colorado Springs told the FBI he saw a solid black triangle with a red light at each corner emerge from a stationary cloud that looked "pixelated or distorted".
- He says it went from helicopter speed to possibly Mach 1 or 2 almost instantly, in silence, and banked 90 degrees on its side while veering the other way.
- About a minute later his wife told him his voice on the phone "sounded robotic, as if there was electronic interference".
- When he looked back the cloud had gone; the co-worker beside him is not recorded as seeing the object.
