How can you tell which direction a triangle is pointing?
Look at each point of the triangle and notice how the triangle can, in turn, be seen to ‘point’ in that direction. You should experience a ‘Gestalt switch’ between seeing the triangle as ‘pointing’ in each of the three directions corresponding to its angles. Stephen Palmer, psychologist at UC Berkeley.
How many times does a triangle appear to point?
The triangle can appear to ‘point’ at three different times. The triangles in group of triangles can appear to point in different directions at different times but triangles close to each other always seem to point in the same direction at the same time—and appear to flip direction when those near them do.

What kind of lights are on black triangle?
— The vehicles sometime fly with easily noticeable bright lights — either blinding white lights, or have “bright disco lights” that usually flash combinations of red, green or blue. The NIDS study emphasizes that the flying of these vehicles may be more in harmony with an attempt to display or to be noticed.
