KRANENBURG — Observation — 13 August 2026, ~23.00 - 23:10 CEST
Observer: 25 years' stargazing experience. Sole witness.
Conditions: Cloudless, moonless (new moon), one night after Perseid peak. Dark-adapted.
Location and track: Observed from Nütterden. Object travelled from the direction of Breedeweg/Groesbeek (NL) toward Kleve, roughly following the line of the Römerstraße.
Form: A single triangular object. Four lights: three at the vertices, one in the centre, the central one brighter. Colour white at the centre, white with a yellow/orange tint toward the edges — reported by you as low confidence. Faint diffuse glow around the edges. Edges slightly fuzzy. Reported as a solid body, with substance visible between the light points.
Size: Approximately 10° angular width.
Motion: Crossed roughly one-third to one-half of the sky in 3–4 seconds. Continuous, unbroken observation for that duration. Its tilt relative to your line of sight changed during the pass.
Sound: None.
Estimated altitude: No more than a few hundred metres — your impression, not a measurement.
Subjective impression: It appeared "massless, " hologram-like, and moved as though air were not present. Object was massive and looked technological. After basic search on Internet it fits very closely to description of TR-3B "Black Manta"
