Rectangle shaped UFO seen over Florida

Report from MUFON

Date of event: November 26, 2011

“After returning from a night of racing at Desoto Speedway we pulled in to our driveway just after 11:30 PM, EST.

Me, my son and our crew chef noticed that the stars were very bright and my son and I stated that we had seen satellites on a night like this before.

Our crew chief had never seen one, so for about 30 minutes we all started looking for some, but only saw falling stars and we were all getting cold from the night air.

As we decided to go in, over the horizon at about 45 degrees we saw a rectangle object flying south. It had soft, faint lights only at the points with a soft yellow straight lines connecting the corners.

It was moving at 10-15 mph and made no noise, there was no rotation, just straight flight. It continued south until it disappeared. We were left with only one conclusion.

This is no aircraft, and this is not man-made. It looked like it was able to cloak itself.”

Unknown flying object with green lights spotted over the Atlantic Ocean

Report from MUFON

Date of event: November 13, 2011

“Our condo is on the Atlantic Ocean, and we were in bed at 11.30 PM, when we heard a helicopter circling over and around in the ocean.  This was very close to our condo. At first I thought the ocean was roaring and I said to my husband "Is that the ocean?"

He replied that he thought it was a helicopter. After a few minutes of it circling, I got up and pulled the drapes, all our lights were off. I looked at the clock and it was 11.30, I then looked up and saw the green lights of a strange object.

I asked my husband to come and look, I said "What is that?" and he said he had never seen anything that looked like that. He is a retired Army pilot, and worked for Boeing for many years as a test pilot.

There were clouds around the object and occasionally they would go out. However, we could never see the whole thing. From what we were able to see it looked to be rectangular.

We observed the object for 45 minutes, from 11.30 to 12.15 PM.  We tried to take pictures but all we got was orbs, large ones. We had no missing time. We were not excited, or anything, just curious.”

Three unknown flying objects observed over Southampton Valley, UK

Report from MUFON

Date of event: November 25, 2011

“At about 5:30 pm on the 25th Nov 2011, I was looking out of my bedroom window over Southampton Valley. It was full dark outside and I noticed a bright orange light in the sky not moving, but very intense over the Bitterne area of Southampton.

I then went to get my brother to have a look at it. When we got back in I noticed another VERY bright, red colored light fly upwards under the first at a very high speed.

Then it slowed down under it, so now there was 2 bright lights in the sky. I noticed as it slowed it changed color and intensity to an orange red.

By now we were quite amazed as these clearly were not normal aircraft, so we rushed to find our digital camera and when we got back in the bedroom there were now 3 of the lights, all orange-red bright hues in a large triangle formation.

The bottom 2 lights seemed to be moving to right, and the top changed altitude somewhat as we observed them after about 10 minutes.

All 3 of the lights disappeared; the last to go being the bottom light. We managed to take 2 photos, but they didn't show anything due to probably the street and house lights below.

The most remarkable thing was the speed at which the light came upwards under the first and the intensity of the light, they cannot have been Chinese Lanterns or fireworks as these lights changed position AND altitude and at times were extremely brilliant.”

Strobing lights in sky seen near Liberty, Indiana

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 29, 2011

“While returning home from Oxford, OH to Liberty, IN on Bath Rd. in Franklin City., IN, I was looking off to the right towards Liberty. I had been watching contrails from aircraft in a clear blue sky, which we had not seen in nearly a month.

The terrain is farmland with a few copses of trees and one can see the cell tower in Liberty, on US 27. While looking out towards that area, suddenly there were several teardrop flashes just above the trees in a straight-line trajectory moving from west to east, towards Oxford.

There were approximately five of them and to describe it, they moved so fast it was almost incomprehensible. Just as I remarked to my husband, they were gone. It was NOT the cell tower, but looked like the strobes at an airport.

There is an airport belonging to Miami University, however, it was to the left and about 5 miles behind us. Further, they do not have those types of strobes. These were silver-blue teardrop shapes. It was really hard to describe, though. No, I did not think it was a tower.

I am on that road virtually every day and know every nook and cranny of it. It looked like the strobes on a runway and very much like an LED light.

To describe what I felt? Freaked out. Gave me a creepy feeling. It or they seemed to have just disappeared behind us into the sky.

It was still light out, too.”

UFOs and explosion seen by witness over Florida

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 29, 2011

“Approximately within the time frame of 9:00 P.M. to 9:20 P.M. Eastern Standard time, USA, the night skies as seen from Plant City, Florida, were very active with fast and slow traveling circular lights moving erratically about the Western skies.

Up to 4 of these UFOs or the same one, were seen a few minutes apart fading in and out, from the sighting of the last one, and moving various directions. Their elevation was guessed to be just inside the Earth’s Atmosphere, where jet planes fly and satellites orbit. There were no fire trails.

Also at 9:15 PM from the same view point, looking straight up in the sky from my location, was seen some type of EXPLOSION IN SPACE. The circular flash-like explosion was bright white, and from start to fade away lasted three seconds.

Guesses were made that it may have been a UFO or a distant sun going Super Nova, but it was ruled out that it was a meteor due to no fire trail and obvious difference.

The size of the explosion in a comparison from the view point would have been similar to a quarter the size of the Moon.

A science fiction writer could guess that there was some type of space battle going on. I am a studier of all subjects for over 35 years and being level headed, well, I could probably say with almost certainty the same thing.”

Multiple witnesses observe frisbee-like UFO over Rotanda West, Florida

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 27, 2011

“It was 2:27 PM, when I went outside to smoke a cigarette with my dad and he looked up and pointed and said, "what is that, is that a UFO? I looked and said, "yeah, weird what is that?

It was going left and was like a Frisbee flying on its side. It had something like black windows, and it appeared to be rotating like a fan. It was moving real fast. Then it went to a dead stop for 20-30 seconds.

It was silver, and at least the size of a football field. Just by the size I saw, it was bigger than any other airplane the US has made. Then after it stopped, it went back to the left, and the trees blocked it off. It should have come back into view, but it was just gone.

At first I was calm, but after thinking about it for a bit, I got scared, anxious. Something very odd had happened. The time that it disappeared was 2:29 PM. I would take a polygraph, or swear on the Bible that this was not an airplane.

The only time I have seen anything like this is on shows on TV about UFOs.”

Unknown flying craft seen over Virginia

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 27, 2011

“I left work and started driving home on the state highway. There were thunderstorms in the distance, about 5 miles away. I have to take several back roads to get to my house, and so I pulled onto one of those.

It was a few minutes past 9:00 PM. As I was driving at about 55 mph, I noticed a dark object with flashing lights on my left. At first I thought it was a plane, or maybe a helicopter, as I see them flying over fairly often, mostly during the day time.

But as I stared at it I realized it was unlike any craft I had ever seen. It had blue, red, and white flashing lights that flashed on a ring around the craft. It was lower to the ground than any plane would fly, and was coming at me at a perpendicular angle. I still thought it was some sort of plane until it turned, very sharply, to parallel the road.

As soon as I saw the back of the craft I knew it wasn't a plane. It looked more like some sort of space shuttle. There were three yellow circles on the back of the craft arranged in a triangular fashion, much like the thrusters on the back of a space shuttle.

The circles were not that bright, and I could still see the white and red lights flashing from the back of the craft. It looked like it had two large wings, but the exact shape was hard to tell because the only source of light (other than the craft) was a flash of lighting or two.

At this point I realized just how fast this thing was moving. In the span of less than a minute it was just a pinprick in the distance.”

Unknown objects seen in Pennsylvania

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 9, 2011

“I am a New Jersey UFO investigator of 30 years and I am friends with Paty J. Marcatillio (Dr. UFO). I was at a friend's house on the morning of April 9, 2011, in Washington Crossings, PA, picking him up to head up to State College.

While waiting, I went out to his porch to smoke a cigarette and was looking over the new Veteran's Cemetery in Washington Crossings. Coming from Trenton and moving west were two huge bright orange orbs moving horizontally across the sky.

There is a microwave tower in my view across the field, and the two orbs were 3/4 of the way up the tower. There appeared to be one following the other.

They came into my sight and flew horizontally out of my sight within a matter of seconds. There were no flames or structure to be seen. These were NOT planes, jets, helicopters or balloons. These 2 orbs were contrasted by a clear blue sky as a background.

My first thoughts were that of disbelief, but Bucks county has has a string of UFOs so its not all uncommon. After some research, I found no corresponding sightings or media stories.

I did however speak to my friend and he stated he and his boss have been viewing 3 bright white orbs hoving over Route 95 that were not Orion's Belt, and as they hovered, were considerably larger and hung lower in the night sky.”

Unknown flying object seen by couple in Arizona

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 19, 2011

“We were driving from Scottsdale to Sedona on the morning of Tuesday, April 29th, 2011. I was driving, my husband was in the passenger seat, and 2 kids in the backseat. It was a clear, sunny morning.

As we approached and passed the Camp Verde exit on Route 17N, a small, silver disk/cigar-shaped object entered my field of vision traveling from left (west) to right (east). I immediately noticed it and casually (and jokingly) said to my husband, "Look, a UFO."

He looked up from his cell phone and saw it too. We watched it travel extremely quickly and smoothly over the highway and then curve north. It paralleled the highway and flew north. It went from maybe a mile in front of us, which is hard to estimate, to out of site in a matter of a few seconds.

We estimate the total distance it flew north was about 10 miles. It was hard to estimate the immediate position because we couldn't quickly figure out what it was - there were no wings, no tail fin, no contrail, nothing. It was moving extremely fast and smooth and was gone to a pinpoint then out of sight in a few seconds.

My husband now says "Oh, it must've been a jet." We saw many planes in Sedona later that day; biplanes, small jets, helicopters and they were all easily identifiable and moved so much slower than the object.

I'm reporting this because it was so unusual, 2 of us saw it, and maybe someone else saw something too.”

Unknown flying object seen over Maine

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 22, 2011

“I took my dog out for some business about 12:10 this morning. I went out on my stoop and I always look at the sky. Having moved here a little over a year ago, I enjoyed the night sky because it had so many more stars than where I lived before.

I noticed what appeared to be a plane above and to my right. It had a couple of lights on, flashing but not going on and off. They seemed to twinkle more than flash. I assumed it was a plane and continued to watch the dog as she sniffed around.

After a few seconds, I looked up again and there was one steady light. I thought I must have been mistaken about the additional lights and thought maybe it was a star. Then they came on again.

It wasn't moving but it was hovering, and I realized after a minute or two that this was something unusual.

The lights flickered, and then it started moving extremely slowly toward me, with no sound at all. That freaked me out a little and I went inside. I looked out the window of the door, and I saw it moving side to side, slowly.

Then it stopped and continued to flicker. At first I thought it looked like it was a boomerang shape. But it could have been a disc. It definitely had an angle to it.

It reminded me of a wedding band that had diamonds all around it. Like I said, they were white and flickered, sometimes all of them, sometimes a couple and sometimes just one.

It was hovering out towards Lewiston, ME, and it was about the height and size of a plane. I watched for about 15 minutes, but because of it moving toward me, I decided to stop watching. It definitely gave me an eerie feeling. I've seen UFOs in the past (many years ago) and they didn't evoke that feeling in me.

This just seemed different, maybe because I was by myself and it was so dark out. I watched the news hoping to hear of other reports, but so far there haven't been any.

I thought I should mention it to someone.

Thanks,”

Boomerang shaped UFO seen over Texas

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 22, 2011

“I live in the country, so there are no city lights to spoil the night view. I was planning to spend the evening just star gazing on the side yard. I had just sat down.

When I first looked up, my eyes stopped at the top of the trees in front of me at about 45 degrees in the sky. I was staring at what seemed to be a boomerang at about the size of one and a half inches at arm’s length, object was moving to the north.

I would say that the trek went from 45 degrees, thru 90 degrees, and another 45 degrees in about 25 seconds and then the right side rose up and it turned to the left at about 30 degrees and went behind the trees there.

At first, I thought that it was an experimental aircraft that they wanted to hear if anyone could see it, then, a flock of geese, no geese sounds plus when it took the 30 turn and raised the right side of the craft which I believe geese wouldn't mimic.

It was the most amazing sight that I have ever seen in my life, I stood in my yard for 10 minutes, searching the sky with my jaw dropped!”

Lights brighten up hill at Sudbury, Ontario

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 3, 2011

“I was driving taxi just in the border of the city and it was a dark road when I saw an orange light in the sky. It looked like a street light, but higher in the sky and my passenger saw it too.I proceeded to drive client home and drove back to the location to see if it was still there.

There were lights off in the distance; I would say two or three kilometers over a hill. It had three lights - blue, red and white, and was not in the normal pattern for a commercial airline or helicopter as we see them all the time. It had one bright white light pulsating very brightly under the others randomly.

The light was bright enough to light up the hill it was over. It was very interesting, but I had to leave because I was dispatched to a fare. I didn't see anything after that except for a helicopter about 30 minutes after, but could tell it was one.

It is very interested that others in Ontario have witnessed something on that date and time. UFO flap?”

Unknown lights in triangular shape over Texas

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 19, 2011

“I took the dogs outside before they were to be put in their crate for the night.

I went to check the front door and garage door locks, and then I went out the back door. I heard a plane and saw it flying south, and it made me remember a story I read on a website about a UFO following a plane. Upon remembering that, I tried to get a good look at the plane, but it was hidden by my neighbor's tree.

I kept looking around in the sky because of some feeling I had that I was going to see something. And sure enough, I saw three white lights in the sky in a triangle shape.

At first I thought it was another plane flying overhead because of the placement of the lights, but I not only did not see the body of the plane, but the lights moved independently of each other as they quickly moved east/northeast.

The light on the right (southern-most one) veered away from the other two at an angle, and then they zoomed off until my neighbor's house blocked them from my view. This event took maybe 15-20 seconds from the time I noticed the lights until they disappeared behind the house.

I'm not saying it was alien-craft, but it just did not look like anything I had seen before. A minute or two later I went back inside and saw that the time on my stove said 11:49 pm (central time, and it might have been off by a few minutes).

I'm normally anxious at the unknown, but I was pretty excited to see such a sight, not scared at all.”

Shiny, metallic UFO observed by couple over Tulsa, Oklahoma

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 13, 2011

“My wife and I were headed West on Hwy. 11 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, at 11:50 AM about 6 miles North of downtown Tulsa.

I saw thru my windshield at about 11 - 12 o'clock high into a clear blue sky something oval to almost round-lights, like 2 very, very, bright lights inside the shape. It seemed to be a shiny metallic outside the lights.

My wife saw it about the same time. At first I thought it might be a bright reflection on the windshield from the sun, but the sun was behind the car over my left shoulder.

The object was moving to the northwest. After driving 2 miles watching the object, we turned to North on Hwy. 75 to go to an appointment in Bartlesville.

The object had started losing the 2 bright lights, and seemed to change to dull gray color and shaped like a cigar or missle-shaped. It seemed to sort of fade away briefly. After heading North on Hwy. 75 for about 15 seconds, we could still see it, but it faded away again.

After a few seconds it appeared again from lower in west sky and accelerated up at about a 20 degree angle going North/West direction - still dull gray in color, cigar-shaped with like a rudder on the back of it. We watched it for about a mile down the Hwy. headed North, and it just faded away or disappeared.

We should have been able to see it in the blue sky for quite a ways with the weather conditions, but it just vanished.

It was really weird and we'll never forget it.”

Woman and son watch object fall to ground in North Carolina

Report from MUFON: Date of event: March 24, 2011

“I with my son in my car waiting that morning for his bus before school. We were sitting at the end of the driveway; it was at 6:20, still a bit dark, but the sun was already coming up.

Around say 6:28, I just happened to look directly in front of me towards the neighbor’s house when I thought I saw a falling star across the man's backyard beyond the trees.I was quick to realize that it was not a falling star, and then quickly told my son to look at this thing falling.

I had thought at first I was seeing things, so I had to ask him to look. He couldn't believe it either, and had a puzzled look on his face.

I asked him, "Is it a helicopter?" and he said, "No mom, cause it's not making any noise and the lights are coming out of it from everywhere." So now I started freaking out because I wanted to know what it was, but it happened in a blinking of an eye. It came down quickly, but like it was out of control and trying to regain control.

It was a ball-like shape with light beaming if that's what you want to call it from every side of it. Well I kept watching it, then out of shock I had to get out of the car just so I could see if I could tell what it was better outside.

I still had my eyes on it the whole time because I was afraid it would go away before I got outside. By the time I ran out of my car and went about 10 ft. I saw it still out of control, and then it vanished behind the trees and some clouds.

I do remember thinking that I wish there were no rain clouds because maybe at least I could have seen it go down better, but I don't think that would have mattered because of the trees.

I was in amazement and shock, but happy that my son saw it too, but still wondering what it was. If it was a helicopter then we would have heard about it on the news that day because I went home after my son got on the bus and looked up the news and anything that would help me find out what that was.

If anyone saw that thing that morning, nothing was reported. I still wonder and have no idea what that was. There has to be someone else other than us that saw that. Because this sighting was not that far from my son's school and the church someone must of seen something, right?”

Three unknown objects photographed over Pennsylvania

Report from MUFON: Date of event: January 10, 2011

pa011010“My 26-year-old son and his wife were driving north on Belvoir Road near Plymouth Road intersection, in a brand new less than 100 miles, Toyota Corolla, when my son decided to take a few pictures out the window. The photograph below shows something we saw when we reviewed it. The actual picture on the camera had more visible objects, at least 10 to 20 more.

To put it in today’s words "there was a lot going on up in the sky."  When he took the picture, neither he nor his wife noticed anything unusual in the sky.

I have shown this to other people and got mixed viewpoints from being real UFOs or just plain dirt on windshield. One man I showed picture to come back later with numerous older published photos showing three similar objects in identical formation.

A few days after the taking of the picture I sat in the front seat of the Toyota and looked through windshield at every possible angle and there was no dirt marks or deformities in window.

The car had not been washed from the time of photo up to the time I examined the windshield.”

Michigan family witnesses two unknown flying objects

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 11, 2011

“On 4/11/11 about 11:00 - 11:30 PM, my entire family witnessed two unknown objects about 200 ft above the tree lines coming in from the NE and flying SW.

Neither object made any noise.

We had been watching the night sky observing different lights when suddenly out of nowhere from the NE, we saw a very odd-shaped object flashing red/blue lights.

Then from a more Northern direction was a "plane-like" craft seemingly following the first object at about 3/4 mile behind. If you were not outside observing these two objects flying overhead, you would have never known they had flown over. Neither object made any noise.

They were both flying about 50-60 mph. The second craft appeared to be in the shape of a triangle and had two, large amber circle tail lights on either end of the craft.

The tail "lights" were very far apart.

I believe that what we saw here in Lansing is the same thing that the person in Fenton reported seeing. We were also all very shocked and could not figure out what we were looking at. The first object that was flashing the red/blue lights, I can't even explain the shape, it looked like the bottom object had a second object stacked on top as if it was carrying something.

Both objects continued flying southwest and eventually flew out of our sight.”

Multiple unknown objects seen over California

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 14, 2011

“My wife and I were taking a walk and left the house a few minutes past 9:00 PM, PST. I shot a short video (32 sec) on my cell that is time stamped "04/14/2011 09:27 pm." We were watching the activity for about a minute and a half or two minutes before I began shooting.

The footage does not reveal anything, but it recorded my wife and I talking about what we were seeing, and it marked the time. Twenty minutes later we saw two more UFOs. We were just taking a stroll around the neighborhood. We turned a corner and were facing west. Before us at this point was about five miles of open land, then there was the outline of the foothills spreading north and south.

It is very dark where we were and we stopped to look at the starry sky. High in the sky at about "One O'clock" my wife and I saw a bright white light moving very quickly toward the south. It was first a fast moving ball of light, then a "contrail" appeared on the end of it. It wasn't a contrail, but a long trailing light like a rocket shooting up into space.

But this was going north to south and there was no smoke.

The contrail appeared only a few seconds. Then the light appeared to angle down and turn toward us (we were facing west). As it headed northeast (it was veering to our left) angling downward (but not steeply) it flared up and a fan of light radiated out from the front and trailed behind.

It was even all the way around and trailed off like a mist of light.

We could see the main white light inside this fountain of light that shot out the "front." Then the fan of light faded, leaving just the ball of light which then disappeared as well.

We scanned the sky and the white light appeared again about five seconds later, but it was bigger and closer (but still very far away).

This then disappeared and reappeared very quickly even closer and lower. The ball of light then radiated a fountain of light again, but it was red and the white ball inside was now red.

This red fan or fountain of light seemed to hover for what seemed a long time, but it was maybe a good 3 or four seconds. The fountain ended, leaving only the ball of now red light and the thing then veered upward and disappeared.  We live near an air force base and know the sounds of jets and helicopters.

About two minutes after the light disappeared a military jet flew from north to south before us and hightailed it in the same direction as the ball of light. We know a military jet from a passenger jet. This military jet zoomed across our field of vision and went after the red ball of light.

About twenty minutes later we saw two more UFOs high in the sky straight ahead of us. The second video we took is only 16 sec and is time stamped "04/14/2011 09:50pm." Cheap cell vid is only good for time and our comments.

Straight ahead of us and almost centered over the foothills was a bright star that was there during the above episode. Twenty minutes after the above and we were still watching the sky when we both saw a tiny ball of light come out of the "star."

The tiny white light came out on the north side of the star and did a backward 'C' move and stationed itself above the star. It hovered for 5 or 6 seconds and zipped up and to the north. AT THE SAME TIME THE STAR MOVED and went in a straight line to the south.

It just began moving southward. This "star" was right in front of us during the whole thing and slowly moved in a straight line to the south and disappeared really fast after it began moving.

We kept looking at the sky for another twenty minutes. Saw many military helicopters moving in the sky before us, but no more UFO sightings at this point.”

Unknown object photographed over Kentucky?

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 4, 2011

kentucky040411“On April 4, I was visiting Richmond, Kentucky. As I was enjoying the country life and driving to see my family, I was taken by the beautiful sunset, so I asked my daughter to roll down the window and take a photograph of the sunset for me.

It was only upon looking at the series of photographs the next day that I noticed the bright star in the upper right corner of all the shots and decided to zoom in for a closer look. Much to my surprise, it was not a big, bright star, but clearly a big, bright white triangle shaped object.

Upon further examination, I noticed that directly below the triangle, to the right of the light post, is a black circular object that does not look like a plane or helicopter. The most significant thing about the place I took the photographs is that it is directly adjacent to the Blue Grass Army Depot - which houses large munition storage, chemical weapons, and a new chemical weapon destruction facility.

My thoughts about these photos are either, good job America on the new technology, or, heads up US Government and military, we have visitors eyeing Blue Grass Army Depot and weapons of mass destruction. Americans better hope the intelligence behind this spy craft is ours, and is protecting the airspace around these weapons of mass destruction.

Let us hope that BGAD is not being targeted for mass destruction of America.”

Lighted, rectangular-shaped object seen over California

Report from MUFON: Date of event: March 28, 2011

“I awakened to use the bathroom. I went downstairs, turning on no lights, and then returned to my room upstairs in short order. I went to the window to look out at the moon and the Orion constellation (I often look out at the night sky before returning to bed).

The night was crystal clear and cloudless and I looked to my left at the stars and moon. I was immediately distracted by moving lights to my right and turned and saw a flying craft unlike any I have ever seen.

It was shaped like a box, square at the front with rectangular sides and underside.

The sky was very dark blue and the object was black against it. The perimeter of the underside was lined with lights, red and green (alternating), that sequentially turned on and off, giving a rotating effect similar to that of the lights bordering a theater marque. This object was large and very low. I estimate the front to be thirty feet square and the length ninety feet.

The surface of the object was absolutely smooth, featureless and non-reflective. There were no windows. The lights circling the lower perimeter were numerous. I estimate one hundred. They were not circular, but shaped like footballs standing on point and as large.

The window through which I was watching this object was closed, but the left side of my face was against the glass and I heard no sound. This was curious because this thing was so close. I estimate the altitude at about two hundred feet but heard nothing.

Equally as curious was the speed at which it was moving forward, maybe fifteen miles per hour and no variation. Its motion forward and level attitude also did not vary.

There was nothing above the object holding it up and nothing below supporting it. Nothing was ahead of it and nothing trailing. The object passed out of my view over the back of the house and I turned, stepped to the center of the room, paused, and then sat down on my bed.

Looking back, this inaction and loss of curiosity is out of character for me. I sat on the edge of the bed for a few minutes, eventually laying down, and slept until morning.”
