POLAND: UFO Formation Flew Rapidly Over Warsaw [14/03/07]
Warsaw [Mazowieckie], March 14th 2007, ~21:00.
At about 9 pm. on 14th March 2007 Mr. T.P. living in Warsawian Srodmiescie [the Middle City district] noticed from balcony of his flat located on 4th floor 4 bright objects that in the first part of the sighting formed a horizontal line in the sky. Then they arranged in horizontal line and to create finally a rhomboidal formation.
At about 9 pm. the witness went on his balcony to smoke a cigarette. Suddenly he noticed a strange manifestation in the sky.
"I'm a smoker" - he admitted - "and I have to go to the balcony where I can smoke freely. It is often during smoking that you look around. Yesterday my sight focused on stars. Looking up I noticed a group of 4 lights crossing the sky from Zoliborz to Goclaw. They remained in my sight for only about 5 seconds. During the flight they were changing they arrangement - at first they flew in vertical line, then arranged horizontal and finally transformed themselves in a whirling rhomb. It lasted only a while but I'm certain of what I saw.”
Just after the sighting, the witness look at his watch. It was 9:02 pm.
According to his relation the weather condition were good and the visibility was excellent. It was almost cloudless night with temperature about 8 - 10 Celsius degrees.
The witness compared the object size to that of stars. They also emitted light that was "brighter than gray and darker than white". Four objects seemed to be identical. During several seconds of sightings variations in intensity of objects’ light can be noticed.
Alleged UFOs were traveling from north - west in south-eastern direction with steady speed. The witness cannot say on what altitude the objects were positioned and how far they were. "If a plane flies on 10 km altitude with speed varying from 900 to 100 km/h, these objects traveled 10 times faster" - he said.
Moreover the way of flight of these objects seemed at least unusual:
"They were flying in formation, in constant proximity one to another. They appeared in an arrangement, one after another. The change to another arrangement was very fluent and rapid. Then they change the configuration. That 'vertical line' made of these points fell down as a cut down tree. In the end, when they began disappearing from my sight, they created a rhomb [...]. When they achieved that state, they began changing their places on the rhomb corners making it clockwise" – stated the witness who rejected also the possibility that they were conventional objects.

An object pulsating with multicolor light was positioned on high altitude in the south-western part of the sky, circa 30 degrees over the horizon. In the time of the sightings weather conditions were very good and the sky was clear so the witness was able to compare the object with other visible stars.
Regarding this case we must consider some pro and contras. One of the easiest possibilities said that the witness saw a bright star or other object while its twinkling was only a optical illusion. Anyway, it doesn’t explain the unusual pulsation and disappearance of the object within 10 minutes (according to the witness there were no clouds therefore it the disappearance was of ‘strange kind’). Mr. Popek wasn't sure what the object was but that it didn't resemble any known object.
