Initial data
My mother, sister, and boyfriend were the first to see it and called me.
It was a triangle-shaped group of lights, like an invisible plane with triangular wings, with lights at the edges of the wings, nose, and tail. The lights were bright, greenish, and teardrop-shaped, like flames.
It moved very slowly down the valley below us, making no sound. As it moved away, it picked up speed and shrank to a single light, then flew away at an incredible speed.
On the same night, it was seen in several other places over Mahe and the surrounding sea, each time described differently.
Above the airport, witnesses described it as a disk-shaped ship with lights around it, a tracking station described it as a cylinder of lights, and at sea it was seen as a sphere of lights hovering over the ocean.
All this was reported in the local newspaper the next day. complete with illustrations.
These observations were made within a few minutes of each other, and all the witnesses agreed that it made no sound.

Summary: My mother, sister and her boyfriend saw it first, and called me. It was a triangular shaped cluster of lights, like an invisible delta winged aircraft with lights along the edges of its wings, nose and tail. The lights were bright, greenish and teardrop shaped, like flames. It moved very slowly down the valley below us, making no sound. As it moved away it gathered speed and shrank to a single light, then shot away at incredible speed. That same night, it was sighted in several other places over Mahe and the surrounding sea, each time described differently. Over the airport, witnesses described it as a disc shaped craft with lights all around it, the tracking station described it as a cylinder of lights, and it was seen out at sea as a sphere of lights hovering over the ocean. This was all reported in the local newspaper the following day, complete with illustrations. These sightings were made within minutes of each other, and all the witnesses agreed that it made no sound.
