On a chilly evening in February 2017, just outside Saint John, New Brunswick, I witnessed something that defies easy explanation. About three kilometers away, above a mountain top, a dark green object appeared almost out of nowhere. It hovered close to the mountaintop for several minutes, moving slowly at first, then tracing a precise circular motion in the sky.
What caught my attention instantly was its peculiar color — a deep, almost unnatural dark green — and the trail it left behind, a shadowy exhaust that matched the object’s hue. It was as if some enigmatic force was venting out silently into the cold night air. Disturbingly, my German Shepherd reacted with frantic barking, clearly unsettled by the object’s presence.
What made this encounter even more surreal was the absolute absence of any motorized noise. No engines hummed, no mechanical drones buzzed — just a silent, spectral presence moving with deliberate grace. Then, in a sudden burst of speed, it shot straight up, disappearing almost instantly into the dark canvas above, leaving only the fading trace of its eerie trail.
This sighting challenges our understanding of conventional technology and the familiar. Its slow, hypnotic orbit before the sudden, rocket-like ascent left me questioning what secrets still lurk in the skies above Saint John. For those fascinated by unexplained aerial phenomena, this experience serves as a haunting reminder that sometimes, reality bends in the most unsettling ways.
