Chronicles the wave of sightings in the mid-1980s
of a light formation passing over New York's Hudson River Valley
and parts of Connecticut.
The lights seemed to indicate a massive triangular or
circular craft moving silently through the sky.
The lights were witnessed by many credible observers,
including police officers and security guards.
In one incident, a light formation hovered over the Indian
Point Nuclear Power Plant near Peekskill, New York,
for more than 10 minutes.
That incident alone makes this book worthwhile.
Overall, this is a fascinating UFO study.
The revised edition includes sightings collected after 1985.

Publisher's Synopsis
In 1983, just a few miles north of New York City, hundreds of
suburbanites were startled to see something hovering in the sky. They
described it as a series of flashing lights that formed a "V," as big
as a football field, moving slowly and silently.It has been
seen many times since then, yet the media has remained silent about
it, as has the military, the FAA, and the nationUs scientists. Now, in
Night Siege, expert UFO investigators reveal the amazing
evidence that cannot be denied and the more than 7,000 sightings that
cannot be dismissed.
A classic in the field, Night Siege
has been called one of the best researched and factual UFO books to
date. This second edition is revised and expanded with sightings up to
1995.
From the Book Cover
CAN 7,000 EYEWITNESSES BE WRONG
They were there to witness the huge, hovering object in the sky,
the flashing lights, the eerie silence. They are ordinary people
from all walks of life: stay-at-home moms, kids,
business people, engineers. They tell their stories here, and that all agree on one thing:
they saw the same massive object cruising over their backyards.
And it was nothing they'd seen before....
To this day, the military, the media and scientists have
remained silent about the Hudson Valley phenomenon.
Yet eyewitness reports still continue 15 years after the first sighting.
What's going on?
In Night Siege,
expert UFO investigators uncover the real story.
Night Siege is widely known as a classic in the UFO field for
its in-depth reporting of the strange sightings in New York's
Hudson Valley in the 1980s. Now
Night Siege has been updated to also cover the latest sightings and close encounters --
7,000 reported between 1982 and 1995.
Are spaceships flying over New York?
Seven thousand eyewitnesses couldn't be wrong.
The late Dr. J. Allen Hynek was a professional astronomer

For 20 years he was the scientific consultant to the U.S.
