"It
was shaped like an eight-sided object, but long tube-like...
there was a break in the object, and then there was a
second (same 8-sided shape tube) closely behind it. As
it passed, I saw many darting lights flying around the
end of the object. It seemed to be translucent... meaning
we could see though it, but it had lights all along the
six-sided shape"

Description and Details:
"We
were sitting on the beach with a fire, for mine and a
pal's shared birthdays, when I saw these lights headed
towards Maui from the direction of Oahu. I thought they
were headed towards the airport here on Maui, but these
bright lights turned and headed along the Kihei beach,
slowly.
It
was shaped like a eight-sided object but long tube-like.
About 2/3rds along the length, there was a break in the
object, and then there was a second (same 8 sided shape
tube) closely behind it..didn't look connected, but it
could have been -- and as it passed, I saw many darting
lights flying around the end of the object. There was
the annual August meteor showers, and you could see them
above this object. It seemed to be translucent, meaning
we could see though it, but it had lights all along the
six-sided shape...outlined like. But I thought I could
see stars though the long shape. It was like it was outlined
in bright neon light, but you could see through it.
It
was huge, and we all got really alert, and I was scared.
I don't scare easily.
It
flew slowly in front of us, then turned left, and flew
over the top of Haleakala...and then we heard later (from
other people here on Maui) down the other side and then
gone. The whole state was a buzz with this for a few days,
then silence...except for those that were together. We
call it "The Sighting".
I
had good friends having a bon fire directly up the mountain
from where we were, and they saw the exact same thing.
I
am an inter-Island sales rep, and a few days later, flying
to Kauai, I met someone on the plane who said that they
had seen the same thing on Kauai, and so did many others
there.
At
the opening of the Super Computer site (partial military)
open house a few weeks later, I asked a representative
from the Large Telescope company why they don't admit
that what we all saw here in Hawaii was a UFO? After two
short diverting answers to my repetetive questioning,
he finally said, 'because the public couldn't handle the
news.'
A
second sighting in my life -- Many years earlier -- on
the back side of Maui -- up in Kanaio, I was in a hot
tub, and layed my head back on the ledge of the tub --
and saw three lights flying over the rim of the Haleakal
Crater. They were blue lights. I watched them, as they
traveled just over head...for a few minutes. Then they
all of a sudden turned RED and moved very very quickly
forward, and then disappeared."
