The UK’s Insight: Project Condign
The UK Ministry of Defence’s declassified Project Condign report delved into Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), including black triangle sightings. The report suggests that many unexplained sightings might be attributed to atmospheric gaseous, electrically charged buoyant plasmas.

These plasmas, influenced by electrical charges in the atmosphere, can travel at high speeds and create vivid, but often incorrect, perceptions among observers. Interestingly, the report also notes that some black triangle sightings might result from meteor entries into the atmosphere.
The St. Clair Triangle Incident of 2000
One of the most notable black triangle sightings occurred on January 5, 2000, in Southern Illinois. The incident, known as the “St. Clair Triangle” or “UFO Over Illinois,” was observed over several towns, including Highland, Lebanon, and O’Fallon. This event gained widespread attention, featuring in TV specials and even a song by Sufjan Stevens. The FAA speculated that the sightings could be attributed to an advertising blimp, but the mystery remains unsolved for many.

The Tinley Park Lights (2004–2006)
In the mid-2000s, Tinley Park and Oak Forest, Illinois, became hotspots for UFO enthusiasts due to recurring sightings of triangular formations of red lights. Witnesses observed these lights on multiple occasions, capturing photos and videos.
Some ufologists suggest that the lights maintained a geometric shape and moved cohesively, indicating they were part of a single object. These sightings were examined in episodes of Dateline NBC and UFO Hunters, adding to the intrigue surrounding the phenomenon.

Speculations of Military Involvement
Theories about classified military aircraft often surface in discussions about black triangle sightings. In California’s Antelope Valley, near several military research facilities, similar sightings have led to speculation about advanced military projects.
One such rumored project is the Northrop TR-3A Black Manta, a stealth surveillance aircraft purportedly developed under a black project. While evidence supporting the existence of the TR-3A is scant, some believe that these sightings might be linked to advanced military technology.
Modern Explanations
Some modern explanations for black triangle sightings include border patrol drones equipped with infrared lights. These drones, with their distinct light patterns, could account for some of the mysterious sightings reported over the years.
