Saw 3 white, shining orbs revolving around each other, disappeared in less than a minute

We (our class) had stayed back at school for an event (Literature Festival). There were a couple of sand dunes in front of our school (visible on Google Maps if you check the location). As we were waiting for our parents to pick us, being one of the last days of school, we decided to climb the dunes. After we climbed, and stayed there for a while. One person, let's call him "X", shouted and said "What is that?". Everyone turned to look at the phenomena. 3 white, (glistening white), shiny orbs of light were revolving around each other. All of us kept gawking at it, no one made moves to take photos or videos. Disappeared in about 30 seconds or so. Some freaked out, claiming this was the end of the world (lol). Most of the witnesses told their parents after this, but described it as fictional. Shame they couldn't be there.

I am a living human alien hybrid

Hi my name Endrias Getachew Kebede I am a 28 year old Civil Engineer from Ethiopia, I am now living in Dubai after facing persecution from the Ethiopic Church for being an evil eye or a Buda or what they call a serpentine breed or bibilcally a nephilim or what the Quran calls a Nazar, I am hiding here in Dubai and have been seeking help from the scientific community in order to perform a whole genome sequencing test ! So we could see the result, I know this are absurd claims but there have been evidence of an alien hybrid dna tests which have conducted in recent years , i just read a research paper on a Chilean young woman who was believed to be an alien but the genetic test proved that she wasn’t I was hoping if you can help me ! Perhaps I am a hybrid and as such I wanted to take this test but I haven’t been able to find the resources so I have decided to send you this email for it could be the greatest scientific discovery of the century !! I am not in good conditions for fear for my life ! Please help me ! I have attached my credentials also the religious services that were performed on me ! Since you have a genetic research facility I like to give myself to research !! I need your help , I am in dire need of a genome sequencing test to see what the results are and hopefully save my life , because I am fully convinced of this religious claims but we must show the world scientifically that a hybrid race outside the Homo sapiens has effected the evolution of mankind and I might just be the proof they need ! Please help and by doing so you will be saving my life !

Star like object without any trail travelling at very high speed from South to North in around 90 seconds.

On 08th January 2021 UAE Local time 06:00 Hours coordinates 25.78404, 56.01033 we saw a star like object crossing the sky from the south to the North at a very high speed. Probably it took just 90 seconds to pass exactly in the same alignment as that of the star visible in the south to the star visible in the north. This is not a falling meteorite as it did not come in contact with earth's atmosphere. Nor was it a comet as there was no tail. Comets normally travel from east to west. The brightness was that of a star and cannot be any satellite in earth's polar orbit. More over the speed is much more than that of any comet or satellite. In Skyerviewer application it could not be traced, nor on mobile camera could We take a photo of it. We found that at that time the ISS (International Space Station) was not above the horizon.

Request you to check with your sources to find out what this could be, and has any of the satellites or space observatories detected this.

Second sighting of a thick shadow passing by the same route

Okay, so the first time this happened it was about 2-3 weeks ago. I was sitting in my office and we are on the 26th floor.

About 45cms to my right are these massive glass window frames with a very open view of hard sand below us for about 1km and then there's a canal that leads on in 3 different directions, past the canal are roads and about 4 buildings under construction (They are much smaller than our buildingg), and right after that is a highway. Basically between my building and the ones under construction there's a whole lot of space.

So a few weeks ago I happened to look out my window and saw a round thick shadow that came from over my building heading in the direction of the highway. So I quickly looked up in the sky and saw nothing. A little shocked at first I decided to ignore it.

Then today, from the exact same spot, passing the same(if not very similar) route it came from the first time, I saw it again. This time I decided to stand up and look properly. I stood so close to the window my face was barely an inch from it. The sun is out, not a cloud in sight and this shadow just hovering by! I lose sight of it once it reaches the highway since it's quite far but judging by the size and clearness of the shadow, it was quite close...

I personally have no clue what this means. Looking at my surroundings it cannot be anything around me. Especially something that passes all that way till even past the highway(Highway is about 15kms from my building) in a matter of 5 seconds. I did not see a thing in the sky, I was in complete shock seeing a shadow formed from nothing, I could not even call people around me because by the time they reached it would be gone and they'd think I was crazy.

I figured I'd share this experience with you, this has been my second sighting and I will be updating you if I see anything else.

Location: Abu Dhabi (UAE), , United Arab Emirates

Shape: Disk


From a high-rise hotel in Abu Dhabi three eliptical/saucer-shaped UFO's are in 1 photo of many taken (11/11/14).




The relative of mine who took the photo departed for Abu Dhabi on November 10. The attached photo was probably taken the morning of November 11th but I will try to confirm that. Possibly (but less likely) it was Nov 11. She returned to the U.S. on Nov. 14.

She took it from her hotel room in a high-rise building. Judging by the shadows of the buildings I think it's a morning shot so I have written down 11:00 but will try to confirm this later. She was clicking off photos at the rate of about one every few seconds and the UFO's are not in any of the other shots so I listed the duration of event as 3-5 seconds.

What I see in this photo is this: 1. Three elliptical objects, saucer shaped. They seem to have some detail within each elipse - these do not seem to be solid metal objects with totally uniform surface texture.

2. When you blow up the photo on your desktop screen, to the right of the left-most object you will see perhaps as many as 5 of what seem to be distant groupings of 2 or 3 UFO's in each group. So there may be 13 or 14 UFO's in this image in all, but I listed it as a 3-UFO event because there are 3 that are seen most clearly. Clearly something cause the seemingly more distant and smaller UFO images in the photo too so it would seem there must have been more than the 3 very apparent objects.

3. There is not a cloud in the sky - these are certainly not clouds based on their shape and the rest of the sky - they do not have any bird-like shape (and birds would have appeared in the other photos she took also) - and this does not have a characteristic of lens flare at all.

Of course one has to ask, because this was taken from a hotel room, and therefore through a window (glass), could they be reflections, for instance of lights in the room? Seems impossible because there is no trace of any other characteristic of reflection, no hint of any other object "in the room". Also unlikely lights were on in the room with this much daylight streaming in, and if these were reflections of lamps then they should have shown up in the other photos also.

The anomalies were not seen by the person who took the photo while she took it. It was noticed later while looking at the photos.

This report was submitted by a party, who is well known in the UFO field, but who, for the sake of his wife's anonymity, prefers not to be identified. We extend our gratitude to both parties for their having shared the information, and the photo, with our Center. PD

Blue Green Circular object with spike-like white, moving to the left

I was taking a picture of the sunlight while I was going to work. I'm just about to post it when I noticed a circular object just above the sun. So I zoomed the image and I was shocked to see that it looks like a blue green ball with white spikes in it. So I took another picture again thinking that it might be a reflection or an there's a defect with my camera lenses on my mobile. The blue object moves to the left in every picture I made. I was still very skeptic about it so my friend took a picture as well from his mobile. And there it is! He captured it too. I don't know, maybe this is a planet, or a satellite, or a drone. The experience is weird.

Cloud containing yellow, purple and red lights for 5 minutes. Lights remained contained and cloud disappeared after 5-10 minutes.

Near to our apartment building, we have a 3 kilometer cylindrical track which I frequent regularly. It is also very close to the flight path for Dubai’s International Airports but the aircrafts do not fly over the track. As I was walking round my second lap, I noticed a heavy cloud above one of the mosques. The rest of the sky was quite clear, even though it was dark. Excited at the prospect of rain, I continued to watch the cloud. There were other people using the track but no one was taking any notice. The cloud had yellow, red and purple lights flashing inside it, one after the other, but in no sequence at all. At first, I thought it was fire-works – I thought that a few families may have had some left over from our Eid Al Adha celebrations which passed last week. I also thought it was a plane passing through or even a helicopter hovering…but there was no sound and absolutely nothing came out of the cloud.

I then thought that it may have been a d! rone but to be honest, I am not familiar with drone activity in Dubai. The lights kept flashing, one after the other but, as stated earlier, in no particular sequence. The strange thing was that the light remained contained in the cloud. As I was watching, something like a lightning bolt flashed just to the right part of the cloud…but the shape was not a typical forked lightning, more of a slight spiral. The lights were flashing for a good 5 or 10 minutes, but the bolt struck only once. I was waiting to hear thunder to accompany it, but nothing came. I also thought it may have come from the chimneys of a sewage plant nearby (they have lights on to warn aircraft of their height). My training program requires me to start running after 1000 m, which I did – I ran 500 m, with the cloud on my right hand side, then turned around to come back to see it again. The cloud had vanished and the sky was clear. It was the most bizarre thing I have ever seen. I posted, jokingly,! about it on Facebook and two of my friends had reported seein! g the ab solute same thing yesterday, in two different parts of Dubai.

Strange objects above Dubai.

I live in Dubai UAE, in Palm Uumeirah which is an island in Dubai.

I was by the beach with a friend and I saw something like 100 small planes moving together in a formation not a specific one but very close to each other with very high speed they were giving green, red, yellow colors.

I thought they are planes, but the number was too large, and they were too close to each other and planes where flying lower than them. The were flying very close to each other and sometimes they go above each other or under.

They were going up but the split in different directions till they formed something like a very long irregular line.

The security guard also ran to us and saw the whole thing.

I tried to film iSight my phone but they were too far for phone camera to capture them. However I have a video for the incident.

I work as a banker and my friend she is also a banker , the security guard is African, is Egyptian, and my friend is Greek...

They then disappeared in the sky but it lasted around 5 min till the all disappeared.

Good Day First of all I would just like to say my husband is a pure skeptic, and when he saw this fireball he thought it was an Boeing on fire. It moved at the speed of an Boeing.

I was asleep, but I’m just reporting this so we could find out, what exactly was that? It came towards him then shifted abruptly and disappeared.

He took pictures with his phone and a video. I can get him to send it if you wish.

A parallel of lights in the sky

While we were travelling back from work at around 2130hours Abu Dhabi, UAE time, I was sitting beside our Indian national driver when I saw a light in the sky and disappeared, I simply ignored it but once again it reappeared and disappeared that time the driver asked me what was it. I then realized it wasn’t something made my eye see a sky illusion.

While we continue travelling a third a light appear and when we looked up to gaze the full sky to our surprise a parallel of lights were on the sky. It was made up of 7 to 8 lights parallel in two lines. It was then my colleague who was sitting from behind joined us and looks up in the sky.

My driver stopped in the middle of the road, I jumped out of the vehicle, my colleague and driver as well and to our amazement we stared at the sky lights for about a minute before it disappeared. It was like stationary at a height of a small plane can fly. Really amazing and fantastic experienced! I now I believed in UFO’s. I want to know if there are sightings similar to what we saw. The sighting was January 31, 2012, at Ruwais, Abu Dhabi, UAE.

bright firey object in night sky over Dubai, UAE that moved irradically

My husband and I were having drinks on the 23rd floor terrace of the Jumeirah Beach Hotel on Jumeirah Beach Rd in Dubai, United Arab Emirates before having dinner at the inside restaurant. The city (land) was on one side and the Arabian Gulf was on the other. The moon was not full but it was bright and over the land side. It was dark and there were stars. My husband and I were sitting facing each other when he looked up and pointed at something behind me. He exclaimed "What is that?". I turned to look behind me and in the distance was a bright object higher in the sky than we were and below the moon and coming at us from the land side heading to the Gulf side. My husband said it looked like it 'was on fire' but it looked like a blurry bright object to me since I did not have my glasses on. He also mentioned that it looked odd, like a triangle. There were many others also on the terrace at the time and someone exclaimed "oh look, they are going to beam us up!! " So I assumed that others saw it too and were making a joke about it. I had my camera and my husband was yelling at me to take a picture of it. But I thought it would come out very good since it was so far away so I thought I'd wait until it got closer since it was heading our way. There was no flashing lights but it did twinkle, like a star would and it was fairly big in size. He kept yelling at me to take a picture but I kept saying "just wait it is coming closer!". But just as I said that it stopped dead in the sky, staying in its position for about 15 seconds, then darted away from us in the opposite direction but at the same latitude, it did not shoot up or down, just disappeared in to the darkness extremely fast. And it was gone! My husband was very upset at me for not getting the picture.

I saw the same lights again a day later but this time inside sharjah city, densely populated neighbourhood with high rise buildings

I recently reported about strange light object in Hamriya Town on 17th Dec. I saw the same, exactly the same object again. This time it was in the city itself. I had come down from my 12th floor apartment to a grocery store downstairs. I was just leaving the grocery store when I noticed a strikingly similar object that I saw yesterday. It was same light, same intesity, no sound. This time, it was hovering above a 15 storey residential building across the street. I was thinking to myself, what the heck, am I imagining it myself, then I called the gorcery store man and showed him the light. Another person walking by also saw. He was also amazed. The light stood above the building for well over a minute. Then it started to move away from us in a horizontal plane at a much faster pace. I could notice it until it disappeared into the horizon.

Strange Light enclosed in a cylinder like object glowing steadily over the water while we were fishing in Hamriya Town UAE

Me and two of my friends went for night time fishing in Hamriya Town near Sharjah UAE. We parked our car in the desert and walked about a kilometer to reach the seas shore. The time was around 12:120. We setup our line and were lazing around when we noticed a very strange light just near the surface of water and it looked like an approaching air craft but since the light didn't increase or decrease in intensity and looked almost stationary for a considerable period of time, all three of us were amazed.

Then about 5 minutes later it started to recede from its position almost in the same horizontal plane and moved in to the sea.

4 white lights/dots in the sky going left, right, up and down

Hi there!

My brother-in-law, family and i were at our rooftop yesterday when my neice noticed something strange in the sky. Looked at me like an aircraft flying very fast but when i noticed it for more than 3 seconds, it wasn't only going in one direction. It was like, going left, right, going far away and then coming closer, looked like a bulb in the sky playing around. i could only see a light... it was too far off for me to notice if there is any craft. ONLY LIGHTS ... dull bluish white light. Almost like a star...

It kept going left, right, up and down for about 10-15 seconds approx and then it was joined by another 3 lights, all lined up horizontally and they shot up in the sky all of the sudden. Very strange.

I was wondering maybe its some Military mission or something like that but thought its best to just report it as you are the expert.

Orange flamed fireball spotted from Ajman beach 11.30pm Friday 19 Feb 2010

Husband and I were sitting outside a cafe facing Ajman beach when to our left we spotted a low, large, bright orange ball, inside of which were flames and which was moving quite quickly. It appeared to be coming towards us but then as it seemed to be getting closer it changed direction and veered towards the horizon, climbing into the sky until it faded out of sight.

I asked my husband what he thought and he agreed with me, it looked like a fireball, the flames very clearly visible. There were no other lights surrounding it, no noise and as many airports operate in this area, planes are easily distinguishable from this. This was a definite ball of light and as said, flames inside visible to the naked eye.

We are not sure whether it was some jet engined aircraft or an actual fireball. But the beach this night was very busy with people and this was simply too big to miss, so we are just waiting to see if others report it.

Fire ball like sighting in Sharjah, UAE

I stay in a villa in Sharjah and i was with my baby boy and two nephews ( 10 & 12 years of age) in my verandah, when i looked at the sky to show stars to my baby. To mine as well as my nephews surprise, i saw a star like but a bit huge and more shiny and moving almost at the speed of the jet. It travelled from North West towards East and stopped a little far away from the sharjah airport.

It was there for a couple of minute when suddenly we were able to see that brightness reducing and seemed like rays emanating from a point. Suddenly it started to fade and it was gone in 10-15 seconds. (could have been traveling in vertical direction)

Myself being an engineer, i know the difference between other ariel objects and i am sure it was not a planne.

Colour was almost yellowish, in between orange.

I have two witness also, being my nephews and i am waiting to know if there are more people witnessing that.

Please mail me if you know about other guys seen that or any articles in those regard.

I apologize as i was not able to take any pics or video, as i was in my pajamas and just strolling around.

weird experience

i was driving to al ain (135km away from Abu Dhabi) on my road i stop at my car for a break, main reason was i was bored becoz my radio simply stop playing just weird tune. I pull over in the side, i had my camera with me so i took few pictures of the desert. there was this fence to keep out civilians from the desert(weird ) but i jumped the fence to take few picture started walking in the sand mount. weather was not that hot suddenly i spotted something, first i thought its a plane then i saw this thing moving so fast and stop at once in middle. it came closer to me i couldn't move my body my camera was still in my hands but i couldn't move anything my head and eyes were like fixed on it. it came bit more closer, it was a round shape, there was no window, it had a sand colour it was like 50feet away from me it was bigger than a attack helicopter. i went on my knee becoz i couldn't stand this things was spinning and i felt like some waves or something hit m! e ...i fall down, when i stand up i had bad headache. I saw it moved then suddenly this circle turn into a triangle model, then slowly started moving ...i still couldn't move my hand or body but as i look it gone far away from me i started moving then i took the camera and take few short but it was gone. since then i got headache, having really weird dream in which i see strange shapes(circles, triangle,then something like visualisation abt strange waves of shapes changing) numbers(i hates maths to be honest) this numbers form some of the weird equations(or something like that form) then a place where place were big clouds and explosions happening (guess its in space) and finally strange circles connected to each others(like in a watch the mechanical wheel) moving clockwise. I see that the same date since then i saw the same thing again and again. so kind of scared to sleep, i didn't said anything to anyone all i want is just stop this headache and dreams. one more strange ! things is that when i meet people,animals, trees i some how se! nse what they are feeling(not their thoughts or not what they think). when i touch a tree i feel it or humans ...and since then i'm having difficulty understanding it. I met people and few times i cried becoz i felt their pain..it all weird just want all this to stop and i want my normal life.other time i get happy other time i get sad its all related to person i meet..so right now i have no idea what im feeling. i take few days off and sitting inside my room and not seeing anyone. had medicine taken but still i dunno its there its been only three days and i already feeling like i will loose my mind

a black bean shaped object floating in the sky .

After we were evacuated in our school's field because of a fire drill I noticed a black shape which was shaped like a bean and was black nearly 2000ft. above us , first I thought it was a bug because it was not moving at all . I showed my friend the sky and he also noticed it.

I exactly don't know how many people saw it but i know at least 20-25 people were shouting " UFO!" I looked more carefully to see if it was a helicopter or baloon but i didn't see a gondola or a rotating blade or ant type of wing .

The ufo was fixed at the same spot and was not moving at all and it was black all over and shaped like a bean .

Unfortinately after like 3 minutes we were sent back to class while the object was still there but after 5 minutes I went back to the field and the object was not there .

UFO discovered on photograph taken in the UAE

Myself, my father and a good friend were on a desert trip from Dubai to Hatta. We stopped our vehicle near the road and my father took a picture of me with the desert sand dunes in the background. It was very quiet and we were absolutely alone. No sound of an airplane. When we got home I downloaded the image onto my computer and when I zoomed in on a spot in the background I saw this object, which I can’t identify. It doesn’t look like an airplane. More like a metallic cigar shaped object with vertical organic wings.

silver, disk shaped object with lights surrounding edge of underside, which hovered for about 15 secs.

I first saw what seemed to be a disk shaped object appearing from over the top of my building (I live on the top floor of a 22 storey apartment block)and rotating in a northerly direction over the sea. A few seconds later I looked from a window in a southeasterly direction and saw a silver coloured craft, surrounded with lights (maybe 15 or so) on its underside, hovering over the apartment building next to mine. It hovered for about 15 seconds and then moved at extreme speed in a southerly direction.

The Disks went sraight over my house and the radio started breaking up.

They were Silver metalic disks which reflected what i saw. They were moving very slowly. They were moving in a straight line and just went forward. My friends and i were so scared that we entered the house and thought we were seeing things. When i switched the radio on, it started to break up. We went out side to see that the Disks passed right over our house. We had trouble sleeping that night.

Object captured by camera over Abu Dhabi

I am a member of the United States Air Force stationed in southwest Asia for the past 2 months. While sight seeing downtown in Abu Dhabi, I took a photograph of a local building with interesting architecture. Upon review of the photo (to make sure it was all in focus) I noticed an odd saucer shaped object hovering to the buildings immediate left, and when I looked up to see it in person, it was no where in sight.

There were no airplanes flying within the immediate area that I could see, and the total time between taking and reviewing the photo to looking back at the skyline was no more than 15 to 30 seconds. Because the craft is in such poor focus (compared to the buildings in the photograph) I believe it was much larger than it appears and in motion at the time the photo was taken. This assumption is also based on the fact that I do not recall it being in the frame as the picture was being taken.

I know there are a myriad of plausible and reasonable explanations for this photograph, but also believe that it stands to attest to the slight possibility that it was a genuine UFO sighting.
