On a quiet night at Bingemans Conservation Area in Kitchener, Ontario, I glanced up, first spotting what I thought was a shooting star. But the sky had more in store. As my wife turned to look, two other lights pierced the darkness, coming together with unerring precision to form a perfect triangle. Slowly, deliberately, this formation began rotating clockwise, as if bound by an unseen force. The motion was hypnotic and measured, the three points locking together with pin-point accuracy.
I counted in my mind: 1001, 1002, 1003, 1004, 1005… then, abruptly, the spinning ceased. In an instant, the lights broke apart and darted off in separate directions, vanishing into the night. The whole encounter lasted barely nine seconds but left an impression far deeper—an enigmatic dance of light, shape, and motion that defied explanation.
This is not just another star or airplane; it was a formation moving with intent and precision, a momentary glimpse of something extraordinary in our skies. For those drawn to the mysteries beyond, the 2003 Kitchener event remains a haunting reminder that sometimes, the night sky holds secrets we have yet to fully understand.
