Summary/Description: A slight departure from the pentagonal shape is the octagonal UFO. According to the Watford City, North Dakota, newspaper, local citizen Barb Ohnsrud and her son Kent saw an eight-sided UFO go over their house on November 2, 1978. Each witness claimed the UFO was first seen as a bright light that quickly came down from the sky like lightning in a bad storm. It passed overhead just 60 feet above ground and was moving quite slowly — only 25 mph. The UFO was 40 feet across, with a large red light in the middle of the bottom surface; blue lights ringed the whole vehicle. It had no tail, nose or propellers. After the UFO disappeared to the northeast, each of the witnesses made independent sketches. The pentagonal/octagonal UFOs remain a mystery. No satisfactory explanation has been found to date.
