Full moon, stars and planets easily identifiable. Elevation angle 3 to four fingers above horizon, quite low. Flight pattern seemed repetative. Low altitude. Luminescence varying in magnitude.

It was flying in circular motion, and bobbing from left to right. Planes don't do that especially at night.

I was sitting directly facing it, it was moving very very fast appearing and disappearing like it was aware of our presence and as if it was taunting us, it would come out behind the trees and hold position so as I lean to my left it moves behind the trees to the right but as I sat still it would hover slightly above the trees. Moving in circles and rapidly accelerating from left to right.

Duration: 20 min
No of observers: 18

Location: Windhoek (Namibia), , Namibia

Shape: Fireball
Characteristics: Lights on object

This was a flame coloured moving object in the night sky.

As a bar owner, i go and stand outside in the parking area for fresh air during the course of a normal evening. The skies above Namibia are extremly clear this time of year. I looked into the night sky and saw an object as bright as a fireball, with a red light above it, but looked as if they were connected. The object travelled from east to west and proceeded to hover above us for some time. I made a note of the time i first saw it until it dissappeared.

Although it looked like a fireball, it was only in colour. There was no flame type movement. Observing the object and using a star as referance, the object circled in the night sky, and the move upwards until it faded away.

I called the local airport and there was no recoreded aircraft activity at that hour of the night. I called everybody from the bar to witness the object. toatl of about 18 people.

There have been numerous sightings in recent weeks in Namibia. As a sceptic, i am now convinced about the exitence of UFO's.

glowing orange round circle next to the moon, suddenly moved beserk and fell to the right and disappeared midway. Scary and awesome!

I thought it was a two moon evening when I looked up into the sky on my way to the garage, then the one lighted up, kind of glowing orange, so I ran inside the house and got the camera, when i started filming this, one round lighted light started moving around in a strange way and then suddenly fell to the right in a very fast pase and disappeared midway. I thought i was taking a picture but was filming instead. I still do have the photos and video clipse with the movements. When I showed this to my father and son this year when discussing the UFO subject, they convinced me that it was an UFO and that I should get into contact with you. I would like to send you these clipse, but do not know how.

No of observers: 0

Location: Swakopmund (Namibia), , Namibia

Shape: Light


Last night (12 July 2008 23:00hrs) I witnessed that looked like a UFO. It was a bright light traveling in a South Easterly direction and moving relatively fast, not as fast as a meteor but faster than an aeroplane and no sound. It moved in from across the sea and overland (Namib Desert).

I live in Swakopmund Namibia.
