Oval with bars coming out the middle of craft.

My boyfriend said look up, over there and I saw it too. It was stationary in the sky, very close, like 2 football fields away. We were alone in the canyon and it seemed to be watching us. We left ASAP and when we looked back after rounding a hill in our truck as we left, it was gone, after 20 sec. of seeing it suspended in mid air in a spot between 2 hills. It was no where to be seen again, gone..

I was so scared and very shook up. We drove on to Delta, CO. 5 minutes away.

Never seen anything like it before. It was fast and strobing And you can hear the noise.

I heard a bang towards the back of my house so I turned my ring camera on live view and I was just looking around. Then I saw these strobing lights coming from the NE above a house across the street towards my house in a South SW direction. You can hear the noise in the air. It sounded heavy like a tunnel in the city sounds. It was very quick too and seemed larger than a drone would be. And the lights… were like ones from that classic movie. I’m assuming it was disk shaped the way the lights were. Never seen anything like that before. I couldn’t see anything on my back camera as the tree limbs were blocking. But you could hear the noise. And hear the difference in sound in clips several minutes before and after.

5 objects in a tight vee formation flying very fast East to West

I was looking up at the stars and I noticed some very dimly illuminated objects appear in the Eastern sky. They were moving westward in a very tight vee formation. The formation was probably half that of the diameter of the moon. I estimate that there were 5 objects formed tightly together. I had a clear view of most of the sky and these objects crossed East to West almost directly overhead in maybe 2 seconds and out of my view. There was no sound which accompanied the objects. Because they were dimly illuminated and moving so fast, I couldn't determine how far away the objects were. They were moving too fast to be satellites. Too silent to be low flying jets. I didn't think they were birds or bats because of both speed and lack of wing movement.

Location details: Southeast of Delta along Highway 50

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Left a trail

A circular craft was flying low paralleling my car on the highway.

I had been visiting a friend in Montrose, Colorado on Thanksgiving 2021. I live in Grand Junction, Colorado so after dinner I was driving on highway 50 back home. At around 8:15pm, I just passed Olathe, Colorado and the Tiger Propane business when I saw a circular craft flying in the tree line near some farms in the area to the right of the highway.

The craft was metallic, a dull gray color. Not shiny but dull. It seemed a little bigger than a large suv. It was a perfect circle. It was flying slightly faster than my car and was only a few hundred feet off the ground. It came out of the tree line and I got a perfect look at it. It paralleled my car for a mile or two over a large crop area. It then sped up and got ahead of me about a quarter mile. It then shot across the highway in front of me and then completely disappeared on the other side of the highway. I had my cruise control set at 70mph at the time so the speed of the craft was interesting.

When I passed the area of the highway where it crossed the highway the lights in my rear view mirrors became wavy. It was almost as though I was driving through an area where there was a disturbance in the air. That only lasted a few seconds and then I could easily see the lights behind me.

At first I thought it was a weather balloon but it did not move like a balloon. It also gained speed fast. Also it completely disappeared. I am not a ufo junkie and not someone that reports these kind of things but this incident and what I saw is not something I can forget so I figure I should report it so that if someone wants to they can investigate it.

35 objects flying approximately 1,500 feet above ground going in a straight line-type formation. Many of them were in groups of 3. A few of them were flying irregularly by going faster than the others. The formation covered a few miles in distance from firsts to lasts. The speed was much faster than an airplane and the formation made clear they were not satellites, flares, or other man-made things. The most sorprendente event was when they disappeared as they flew into a hole not much bigger than they were.

Greatest mass sighting of my life

I walked outside and saw 3 objects flying from west to northeast. Evenly paced and evenly spaced. More kept coming. Seemingly appearing to the left of Venus then disappearing close to Polaris. I was trying to spot them with the telescope and binoculars. My wife was trying to count them and got around 50 -60. Other witnesses I the area are posting on social media who saw them. There are some saying they are Starlink satellites but they seemed much lower as planes were also in the air and the altitude of the planes appeared just slightly lower. No strobes on the objects but they just carried on their procession then stopped. They seemed to appear then disappear. About 5 minutes after the last in the line another appeared following the same trajectory but made a sudden hard 90 degree right turn. Much sharper than a plane can bank. Amazing experience. Just glad I have a witness. We were unable to get them on video though.

Camping at Cheaha Mountain State Park to view a meteor shower and we noticed a cloud like figure that looked pyramid shape that had lights going along bottom. We also noted star formations that was out place.

We also noticed bright dots at high speeds and would suddenly stop or disappear. I felt dizzy, nauseated, ear ringing. We heard a humming sound, coyotes making a weird bark or howl and owls making strange hoots. Little pieces of tree debris scatters campsite, but yet no wind. Air pressure very heavy.

Fast fireball going straight down near Delta, Colorado.

On the evening of December 10, 2016, my husband and I were driving toward Delta, Colorado, on Highway 50 at a little after 9:00 or so. Through our windshield, we saw an AMAZING FIREBALL that was actually quite scary coming down in the farmland a little northwest of the town of Delta. It appeared to be a meteor that was flaming down toward the land and seemed to extinguish just a couple of hundred feet before impact.

Once he concluded that is was not the missile he thought it was, my husband remarked that some farmer is going to find a really cool meteor in his field this spring.

I am posting this a little late as we concluded this was just a larger meteor than most, however, others in Delta have been talking about seeing lights in he sky that preceded what we had observed around the same time. I thought I would report what we saw to corroborate any other sightings that night in the area. It was remarkably unusual.

December 10, 2016 9:15pm We live five miles East of Delta, Co. On 12/10/2016, I sited 2 orange/pink spheres/fireballs, the were hovering and a slight motion left to right. Seconds later another one appeared . The third one appeared low on the horizon, than gained altitude to join the other two. They made a triangle formation.

I went in the house got my husband out of bed and by the time we got back outside a fourth one had appeared and they made a diamond formation. They hovered for a few seconds, than one by one at a high rate of speed moved west over Delta and disappeared into the clouds. As the fourth one disappeared two more appeared at the original spot, hovering, than a third one appeared much closer to us, The last one appeared to be within a forth of a mile from us as it was a lot larger than the others, the three of them made a triangle formation and than again one by one moved west. There was on sound. This took about 6 to 7 minutes. There was a cloud bank to the south of us, and t! hey appeared below the cloud band and in front of it. They gained altitude, as they move West over Delta they then flew into the cloud bank and disappeared. Only the last one that appeared must have turned as it took a different shape, fireball in front and a slight arch and a smaller fireball at the end. Temperature 37 degrees and no wind. We live in the country and there is no road noise, so when there is noise it is easy to distinguish what it is.

Pulsating bright light trying to use Sirius as camouflage with green and blue orbs darting about at very high altitude

Unidentified Pulsating Object Spotted over Delta County Colorado.

At 0530 on October 31, 2016, I took our dachshund outside for his morning constitutional. We live on a farm, so I go out with him because of coyotes. While waiting, a very distant speeding green orb caught my eye the same way a shooting star catches your attention, but you aren’t quick enough to see it. It was in the South Western sky. That caused me to notice a VERY bright star that looked unusual. It seemed to be pulsating red, blue, and green. It was VERY far away, but I watched it for about ten minutes to see if it was plane. It stayed in exactly the same spot.

I was very curious, so I went in to get the binoculars to study this phenomenon. I watched it carefully, trying to think of scientific or man-made reasons behind what I was looking at. Then, through the binoculars and with the naked eye, I could see the green orb near it. Then, I saw a blue orb move around it. I ran to get my son who is 17 and quite skilled with a telescope. I continued observing the pulsating bright light which now seemed to incorporate the blue and green flashing pulses while my son was setting up the telescope. The light was so bright it was illuminating the moisture in the atmosphere in its vicinity. It was too bright for the telescope to see without a filter. By the time we got the telescope figured out, there was too much light pollution from the sun to get a better look using the telescope. I snapped a few photos, but it is so far away that they look jiggly. One photo clearly shows a blue orb near the star-like object.

I really think I saw a craft that was using a star as camouflage. It was lined up with Sirius perfectly. I watched it until 0700 and light out when I had to get ready for work. It continued to pulsate with the addition of some red flashing. My son and husband also saw the phenomenon with the naked eye and through the binoculars. The only natural explanation I can think of was maybe I saw balls of plasma illuminated by Sirius as the blue and green were the same type of color as the Northern Lights. I really do believe it was a craft though, trying to hide in the light and position of Sirius. My son is convinced that it was outside of our atmosphere. I think it was closer because of the clarity I could see the flashing colors through the binoculars.

I know this sounds really strange, but please know that my husband and I are both college educated professionals who are also very conservative Christians.






NUFORC Note:

We do not know what the streaking green object was, but we suspect that the stationary object probably was a "twinkling" star, and possibly the star, "Sirius." PD

Driving Home to Delta, on road by Materion, and noticed light in sky. Thought it was an airplane, but it was just hovering there.

Then it just took off to the right and left a light trail in the sky that slowly disappeared.


((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS))

Yes I thought I wrote July 21, 2016, @ 20:00hrs on the report. And I'm in Delta, UT, out in the middle of nowhere, and whatever I saw, I thought was a plane or a shooting star, but was brighter and out of place, just sitting in the sky. Then it shot off to the right of me, leaving a fading trail behind it. I was just driving home when I saw it.

I have a Daughter in Wichita, Kansas, so I never changed my number. Thanks for the reply I thought your number wasn't valid and you were going to throw little green men jokes at me, or something. And the laughing was the Benny Hill Show.

Event began with us seeing two low flying objects with red and white lights. One passed overhead but it was difficult to identify shape in the dark.

Then we pulled over on country road and turned off our lights. We saw several coming from different directions and at different elevations.

They could have been about size of small private plane but flew like it was being remotely controlled.

Quick ups and downs and side to side motions at times and then smoothly in one direction at other times.

I was driving East on the Ohio turnpike outside of Delta, OH, when I noticed above me a round, brightly glowing orange ball. It was moving slowly across the sky from North to South. I leaned over the steering wheel to help focus on the object and get a more detailed look and I noticed small, orange balls falling off/coming out of the ‘craft’ 3 or 4 at a time. The object dispersed these balls at least twice before it passed out of my field of vision. Its speed was relatively slow.

We were on our scooter, traveling south on County Rd 7, approaching County Rd H.

We both saw a large yellow round ball of light high in the air, probably 3 to 4000 feet. It seemed to be approaching us then it made several S shaped maneuvers dropping toward the earth, and appeared to approach us again and then disappeared.

It was a half moon and cloudless night.

We were preparing to watch local fireworks which had not started yet, and were much lower to the ground, when they did start five minutes later.

In relation to the moon, it was perhaps 1/10th the size of the half-moon that night.

Just a little after 5:00, I was riding my four-wheeler down my yard to the barn to feed the horses and get ready for my rodeo. I looked to the horizon and noticed how pretty the moon was (it was low and orange). So I backed up, and stopped to admire it. As I was looking at it, there was a very bright star above it. It was then I noticed it was moving! It was moving about the pace of an airplane. When I first saw it next to the moon it was in the west. It was headed southeast. I ran to the house and got my father, and he ran out just in time to see it too. It never changed direction, just kept heading in a straight path. We watched it go until it was past the tree line and we could no longer see it. But it was a single bright glowing, round, white object, looking just like a star.

Light in the sky that can stop moving, move in any direction, and has a ditinct light cycle.

I was with two buddys when i first saw it. we drove far back into peach valley, almost to black canyon and parked, we were all focused on one strange looking star that was much too big and bright to be a star, might have been a planet at that piont.

we then noticed a blinking blue light that was moving in a strange direction, swooping, doing circles in the air, and then it slowly moved to the east and was out of sight.

we then saw a glow on the horizon that was getting brighter very fast, it was a bright orange light in the sky coming directly toward us, the driver freaked out and started to drive away, the light did not move for awhile, then the light turned blinking red and blue,(but if you look closely you can see aring of lights) and may have been coming toward us but i cant say for sure, the light then turned blinking blue just like the light we saw before it.

The next day we went back to the same spot at about the same time and the same thing happened,! the light cycles were the same. And then last night i was at my house in peach valley and i saw the same orange light that was not moving at all, i walked toward it and i could see it move from side to side, then it headed south and was blinking blue, this occured twice in one night.

I looked at the big star that in my mind still might be a planet, I watched it for about five minutes to see if it was moving, and i think it was but very slowly, i then went into my house, and when i came back out the big bright star that had been there for three days was gone.

Large hovering light that changed into five separate, smaller lights.

At about 18:00 on Sunday November 15th I was at work, in the forklift pulling hot steel coils off of the beam and placing them outside in the storage yard. I looked up in the northern sky and saw an extremely bright but small light traveling east in a straight line and it just looked very wrong and out of place. It was hard to put my finger on what was wrong about it. The light was too bright, it didn't strobe or blink, but it was changing. I didn't think of this at the time, it only occurred to me the next day, but I think one reason that it looked so out of place is that I see plane after plane, all night long, make their landing descents towards Toledo Express Airport, but all of those landing descents take place in the southern sky - well south of my position at work. But this light was in the northern sky.

Anyway, I didn't think much of it, other than a kind of "that was weird" notion, and I went back inside to pull another coil off the beam. This time when I came back to the storage yard outside, there was the brightest light I've ever seen in my life sitting in the northern sky. I literally said out loud "Oh my God!" The brightness of it looked like someone was welding or torch-cutting the sky. That's the best I can describe it. If you've ever looked at somebody welding without a visor on - it was that level of brightness. It was stationary - it was not moving, and it was huge. I'm not good at estimating it's size but I would figure it was maybe about the size of 4 or 5 two-story houses put together. It did not have a shape. It was constantly changing. "Boiling" is almost a good description of its manner and consistency. It was like a bubbling glob of light in the sky. It's colors alternated between white, red, and green. Now I know that white, red, and gree! n are the colors of every single airplane at night but I assure you this was no airplane nor did it even remotely resemble an airplane. It didn't have lights that were blinking or changing color, it was light and it was changing color, and it was doing so about thirty times a second. I would compare it to when someone blows into a pinwheel. That's how rapid the color-change was occurring. I'm also not good at estimating it's altitude but I would roughly guess somewhere around 5000 feet or so. It was a clear night, but had there been clouds, it would have been below them.

I called my coworker on the radio and asked if he was in the office. He said that he was so I told him to step outside and look above Winchesters (the truck stop on the corner of State Route 109 and County Road H.) "WHAT THE F**K IS THAT!?!" he said.

"Ok, I'm just making sure someone else is seeing this," I said.

It was absolutely amazing. My heart was racing, my hands were shaking, and it wasn't out of any kind of fear. It was out of excitement and out of the fact that this didn't belong or have any logical place in the sky that I've been looking at all of my life. This made no sense. We watched transfixed as the light behaved the way I described above for a minute or two.

Then, while we were sitting there watching it, two much smaller orbs came off of it (out of it, through it, I don't know) and began to fly independently. The main light was stationary but these orbs came off of it and flew east. My coworker and I started shouting and swearing like lunatics, making sure the other had just seen that happen. After the two orbs flew off, they began to increase in size and brightness and the main light began to decrease. Soon all three lights were the same size. At this point, I grabbed my cell phone and called my fiance because I wanted her to go outside and see if she could see this from Swanton. She didn't answer but she still has the voicemail I left describing the event as it was happening. I did not think to try and take a picture but I doubt much would have shone through a cellphone camera anyway. In hindsight, I should have tried to call everyone I know.

Soon the three lights formed the shape of a triangle and then held it for a minute or so. Then a fourth light appeared out of nowhere. The other three lights broke their triangle formation and began flying around. The flying was not dramatic in the sense that they were zipping all around the sky, because that was not the case at all. Almost all of the flying was relatively slow but it was obvious that these lights could, and were, moving in any direction they wanted. They could fly in a direction, stop on a dime, then head back the other way. Same thing with up or down. It did seem very deliberate to me and impossibly exact. It wasn't chaotic. At one point, they formed a straight line, at another they would be jumbled together. I don't know if there was any noise because I was in the forklift but my coworker didn't hear anything. The most I saw was five lights flying at the same time.

Then, one of the lights flew in a straight line heading east, away from the rest of the lights. Once a considerable distance away, it stopped and then dimmed completely into disappearance. At the exact moment that it was dimming away, a new light began to shine into existence in the western sky, on the other side of the rest of the lights. This would continue for a while. One of the lights would fade out while another one would simultaneously fade into existence. But that wasn't always the case. Sometimes two would fade out and no new ones would appear.

All the while, I had work to do so I had to keep returning to the beam to grab coils but then I would sit and watch the lights for a minute or two before I would have to return to the building again. The whole incident from start to finish was about a half hour. The whole time it was occurring it looked like the event as a whole was slowly moving north. At around 18:25 all I could see was one large light in the sky, just like it had started, but it was much further north than when it first appeared. Then, around 18:30 I returned to the building to grab another coil and when I returned the light was gone and I never saw it again.

Luckily I have a witness to back this story up but I didn't think that was going to be valuable or even be an issue. I could not wait to get home to watch the news that night because I thought for sure every single person that was traveling on the Ohio Turnpike or Airport Highway (Rt. 2) had to either be calling this in or recording it. To me, there is no way anyone traveling on either road could have missed this; Or anyone in Fulton County, for that matter, with a view of the northern sky. I honestly expected helicopters or airplanes to arrive at any minute to investigate. This was too unmissable, unnatural, and bright to be missed by anyone in the area. I thought for sure this was going to be story #1 on every single news program that night. So you can imagine how disappointed I was that night when there was no mention of anything on the news. To this day, I cannot find anything about strange lights or UFOs on any of the local channels' or the Toledo Blade's we! bsites. I've also searched YouTube to see if any footage has been posted - If there has been, I haven't found it. But I've also searched YouTube to see if I can find any footage at all from around the world that resembles what I saw that night. So far, I've found a clip or two that is similar, but nothing at all that makes me go: "There! That is what I saw!" It is surprisingly frustrating.

The only tiny piece of validation I have, other than a 2nd eye witness, was a friend of mine who works at the Air National Guard base at Toledo Express Airport. I was telling him about the sighting and he confirmed that he was working the night of my sighting and he heard a group of coworkers make the joke that "Well, it sounds like the mother ship has landed." They were discussing the UFOs in the sky that night. My friend didn't think much of it at the time and he didn't have any other information. He didn't know if calls were coming into the base to report the UFOs or if the base itself was able to see them on radar. He did not know if jets were scrambled to investigate (I never saw any.) But he did confirm that the base was at least aware that there was strange phenomena occurring in the sky on that night.

At around 9:30 pm me and a friend of mine were observing what appered to be a very bright star.

To our amazment it seemed to get brighter and brighter and closer to us, I was done I needed to know what it was so we came off the hill to my buddies house (he is the only one that I know that has a telescope). Once I got it in a clear focus, it appered to be a cross shape with the main horizontal piece a bright green while the vertical piece was a steady red strip. Me and 3 of my friends identified it to be what we all agreed on! At around 9:45 pm it started to get dimmer and fade out of the telescopes range, by 9:56 it was completey out of our view.......

Spotting two UFO's at night, one landing the other taking off, plus one other on the ground the very next day.

On or about March 15, 2007, my husband decided he wanted to go for a drive. I went, my two daughter's and my sister. We had our three dog's as well with us. We all entered our Suburban and left. This was around eight p.m.

We like to go out into the desert, so we drove out to the Gunnison Gorge, because it is peaceful, very desolate, secluded, and quiet. We took our time, and finally reached our destination. We like to stop and watch the sky for unusual things, so we did this for almost an hour. Nothing was seen by anyone, so all five us climbed back into our vehicle, my husband driving, and started heading towards town.

As we were driving, I looked out of my window. I shouted to everyone to look out and we saw an amazing sight.

What was out the window was some kind of bell shaped craft landing. It was glowing, and on the bottom were all kinds of colored lights. I yelled at my husband to stop the Suburban, and we all scrambled out to see this awesome sight.

It was very large, and took about 10 minutes to land. My daughter screamed out, "look over there!", and to our surprise, a second craft was taking off from the same area the first one was landing. My heart was pounding. I had waited my whole life to witness this phenomena, my lifelong dream coming true. I was elated.

After it was all over, we went on home. The conversation in the truck was one of excitement all the way home, not stopping until we all went to bed.

The next day, my husband wanted to go for another drive to the same place. This time it was my husband, myself, our two daughter's, and three dog's. I believe my sister was a little scared to go again, so she opted to stay at home.

We arrived in the same area, and could not believe our eyes. This time I brought a camera. On the ground was a large, circular, UFO. This craft was big and white, and very large.

My husband was the first to spot it. Slamming on the brakes he yelled out "look over there!" My eyes were popping out of my head. Another one, and this one on the ground. It was completely different from the two of the previous night, but got my attention just the same.

My husband pulled over, we all jumped out, and I took several pictures of this "UFO".

My camera was digital, so I went and had pictures made as soon as we got back home. The next day, we decided to go again, and the UFO was still there, but had changed places.

The drive on the next day also revealed something disturbing. We had discovered three dead cows. One in the desert, and two in a field. These cows had been cut open with precision, all organs missing. No blood could be found around them, either. The birds and all other scavengers steered clear of these animals. I also discovered a skunk in the same condition.

I photographed all of these animals, but had my film camera that day, and still need to develop the film. Someday I will, and will show these pictures as well as the landed UFO to those who are interested

I was driving when I thought I was about to witness a plane crash, then it disappeared.

I was driving to Tallulah from Vicksburg at night when I saw this and always wanted to know if any one else saw this!

I was in Delta near the weigh station so it was well lit, and ahead of me appeared to be an airplane that was going to crash right on the highway in front of me! I was really scared, and trying to figure out if I had time to get our of its way some how when it suddenly disappeared!

It was shiny and was lit from underneath so that I could see its shape, like a commercial jet in size and shape but I didn't see the front or any wings.

It left a trail in the sky I can only describe as looking like frost on glass. It happened so fast! I was confused and wondering if I was the only one who saw it, because the car in front of me didn't brake our waver and that thing looked like it was going to land right on top of that car!

I went home and called my mom to see if any one reported any thing crazy on the news and of course no one did. I didnt report! it either because. I was only 19 at the time and figured no one would believe me.I still to this day wonder about this event.

Space craft hovers over pond

The four of us were playing out near the pond when we notice a light coming toward us from the distance. Slowly it approched over the pond and dropped a long cylinder into the pond and started sucking up water. I got scared and ran into the house to hide under the couch. My brother runs in and says we have to tell Mom and the other parents. We run to the next house and in panic we expalin what is going on right outside. At first they thought we were just kidding. But finally we got them to come outside and by that time it was moving off into the distance. I remember seeing three little heads looking out of the craft. The faces was not clear but you could definetly see them. That was the time I ran into the house. I've asked my brother about this over the years from time to time and he remembers it just as I did. My Mom also remembers us coming to her about this. Thats was my only sighting ever.

Three spectacular sightings. Two diamond shaped formations (4 each) about 30 seconds or a minute apart. An hour later 8 discs flying side by side.

Four bright white lights in a diamond formation appeared moving across the sky. The light in the rear of the formation left the formation and began moving down towards the ground. The other 3 maintained their places in the formation and continued moving across the sky. The light that left the formation and dropped close to the ground suddenly shot across the sky back to the other lights and began spinning rapidly around one of the lights in the formation then shot to another one spinning rapidly around it also. 30 sec. - 1 minute later another diamond-shaped formation appeared behind me and travelled across the sky in another direction. About an hour later 8 white luminescent discs travelling side by side in a row appeared, moving in the opposite direction of the first group. They were silent and moved along a wiggly path, not a straight line. Again 1 or 2 left their place in the row and rapidly spun around other members of the group.

Slow moving large red spherical object moving in a upward direction over the town. The object then split into two seperate objects and each one went a different direction at a high rate of speed.

In the spring of 1968, I was standing in my front yard with a few of my relatives. I was looking to the south over the town of Delta, CO (western Colorado) and saw a very large object that seemed to be moving away from me and slowly rising. The object was spherical and bright red, it also seemed to have a glow about it. After watching this object for approx. 15-20 seconds it suddenly split into two seperate objects. Both objects took off at a very high rate of speed, with one moving in a horizontal western direction and the other moving in an upward southeast direction. They both were moving at such a great speed that they were out of vision in just a few seconds. This happened over thirty years ago and is not a fantastic sighting, but I am curious if there is anybody out there who might have been in the area during this time and witnessed anything like this.
