I've never seen anything like it. Sort of floating, changing color light to dark, then just disappeared

We spotted an object gloating up and to the left. Went bright/dark/bright silver/white. I did get video. Might be a balloon?? Weather Balloons aren't common around here though, at least I've never seen one. Looked way to big to be a children's balloon.

Shape: Formation
Characteristics: Lights on object

May 24th, at approximately 0002 hours, I witnessed a strange string of five lights grouped together in the sky above Wilsonville, Oregon. The lights were perfectly linear and moving North-Northeast across the sky. The formation was tiled roughly ten degrees to the right but the trajectory the object took was roughly thirty degrees (essentially a tilted line flying at an odd angle). The sky was clear, and no sound was emitted. The lights never broke formation and slowly worked their way across the sky, finally fading away. Although I would like to think this was a plane, there were no visible wing lights, blinking lights or chem trails.

Strange people walking (no object seen).

This may be nothing. But I wanted to report it to corroborate in case others report it also. I drive every morning from Newberg, Oregon, on Wilsonville Rd. to the I-5 on-ramp in Wilsonville. This is a country road about 12 or so miles with many curves and heavily forested. There are no sidewalks or safe places to walk. There are many houses off the road and usually the owners are the only people you'll ever see standing on the road waiting for cars to clear so they can cross and check their mailbox.

Today, about a few hundred yards before the Ladd Hill Rd. stop sigh and intersection I saw two strange looking "people" walking east along the road towards Wilsonville, i.e. in the same direction I was going. Both were tall and thin enough to notice, in other words maybe 6'2" or 6'3". Both wearing black calf-length boots and brown close-fitting clothing with what appeared to be dark colored jackets.

As I came up on them they seemed to be walking with a strange sort of gait. (I'm pretty sure this is not just my imagination) I was not driving fast but I seemed unable to get a good look at their heads (almost like they were blurred) and as I drove past them and looked in my rear view mirror they actually seemed to turn their heads so I could not get a look at their faces! This all seemed unusual to me. You just don't see people walking on that road, and if you ever do it's usually a "hippy kid" who is trying to get your attention, thumbing a ride, not avoiding you looking at them. Strange. Like I said, maybe nothing but it felt weird at the time. Weird enough that I'm taking a different route to work tomorrow.

Two large, dark rectangular obects fly low overhead

I stepped outside to view the full moon around 9:00pm tonight,the 4th of October. I was standing alone looking up at the moon. It was quiet except for the distant muffled sound of the freeway. Suddenly, I heard an extremely loud, low pitched pulsing sound to my right. As I turned towards it two very large, dark rectangular objects appeared abruptly over the nearby tree tops.

They were identical. Each one had a large red light and a few smaller white lights.

Each was approximately the size of 2 RVS together. There were no propellers. I was standing in a wide open space and they flew right over it, lower than a helicopter would. As soon as they passed over me, I ran into the shadows of the trees and waited for my heart to calm down.

I was shaken enough I needed to talk to someone and went to speak to a man who lives next door in a tiny house he has converted from a former MRI truck. It weighs 34,000 pounds! Why am I emphasizing the weight? Because this man was on the phone with his mother when he heard a loud pulsing sound and his entire tiny house truck began to shake. Not just vibrate, it shook. He came out and we discussed it at length.

My ex-husband served in the Marine Corps for 21 years. I have lived on bases all over the world. I have never seen or heard anything like this, flying overhead before.



((ADDENDUM #1 FROM WITNESS))

Hello Peter,

Turns out we have a helicopter airport nearby that specializes in heavy lift operations. They have Chinooks in their fleet. My partner believes that's what I saw last night. Still. . . no propellers seen on a night with an intensely bright full moon. Hmmmm.

((END ADDENDUM))

((ADDENDUM #2 FROM WITNESS))

Peter the moon was extremely bright as they flew right over me, with the moon as backdrop and still I saw no propellers. Also only one, unblinking, red light. A few scattered small white lights, also not blinking.

((END ADDENDUM #2))

((BEGIN ADDENDUM #3))

Yes I saw only one large red light on each and a scattering of small white lights on each. I did call the helicopter place and left a voicemail for a call back.

((END ADDENDUM #3))

NUFORC Note:

We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she seemed to us to be both sincere, and serious-minded. We suspect that she is an excellent witness. PD

Shape: Oval
Characteristics: Lights on object

It appeared to be a bright oval shaped object traveling at a high rate of relative speed.

I was standing outside on the porch to look around and check the weather, and looked up for unknown reason(s). I saw a bright oval shaped object traveling in an south to north declination at approximately 45 deg as I was roughly facing north. It was a silvery bright color almost like an LED light. I immediately grabbed my binoculars and got the object in sight. I zoomed in and could not make out any shape other than oval.

It had be traveling at relatively high speed from my vantage point and appeared larger than a satellite. When I initially saw it with my naked eye, I believe that I made the best sighting at that time. The object had no red, green, or any other blinking lights. It made no sound.

10-24-2015 17:02. Odd moving shinny object in the sky near Wilsonville, Possible UFO.

There was an air balloon flying near Wilsonville, Oregon, on October 24, 2015, at around 5 pm, I was looking at it and the surrounding sky, when I was looking at the southern sky area I noticed a "shiny object" near a cloud that moved "odd," it was still for a little while and then turned in a circular manner changing direction towards the north (Portland, OR), it moved for a little while going north, the object stopped and hovered near another cloud, it stay there for another while, then kept moving again towards the north until it was no longer visible.

The object was WAY up in the sky, it looked shinny, possibly metallic, and had a roundish shape, it was way up there so couldn't really make out any specific details. I had a camcorder with me and was so excited I was watching a "UFO", I thought I was recording the object, but unfortunately forgot to push the record button, only got a tiny segment and some frames, it was very difficult to see on the camcorder anyways. A friend was walking with me, I told him to look, he got to see the object too, not just me.

I'm reporting it just in case someone else might have seen the same object in the sky around the same time.

Spherical white [pearl-like] object WITHIN OUR ATMOSPHERE, motionless, appeared to be nailed to the sky.

Sighting 6-19-2014 from 6:17 to 6:22 PM PST pm Wilsonville, Oregon, small-appearing, spherical white, pearl-like object WITHIN OUR ATMOSPHERE, very high up, I am gut-guessing that it was at over 2o,ooo feet but difficult to say without anything to compare it to. It was at most 5% to 10% the size of a full moon when the moon is at it highest point in the sky.

Fixed, not moving at all, appeared to be NAILED TO THE SKY, impervious to any wind whatsoever. Had it moved at all during the observation we would have assumed that it was a child's balloon.

Difficult to spot in the first place, my wife only saw it because we were on our backs sky-gazing, even when she pointed to it, it took me a good ten seconds to lock onto it myself. Binoculars failed to reveal any detail. No camera that we have access to would have been worthy of capturing it.

While I was fumbling for a better pair of binocs, object virtually winked out of existence while my wife had her eyes locked onto it.

1 UFO observed 2 times 10 seconds apart, going S to N, then N to S, at 22:15 hrs over Wilsonville, OR on 9/1/13.

UFO Sighting on 9/1/13...

On this date at approx. 10:15pm I witnessed a UFO directly overhead our house in Wilsonville, Or. (unknown latitude & longitude), flying from south to north in an approx. 45 degree arc in a matter of 10 seconds.

It was not brightly lit, it did not appear to have a direct light source but more of a reflected light, a muted light of a brownish color.

There were no flashing lights as would be seen on an airplane.

The shape did not change as it would with a bird flapping its wings - and normally birds don't fly at night.

About 10 seconds after it passed out of view, it came back into view flying again directly overhead, but this time flying north to south, and this time my wife saw it, so she was my witness, and I, hers.

There was no sound, but the shape of it was elongated, yet flying long side forward.

I would just like to know if anyone else in the area witnessed this, and of course what it was, if not an alien craft.

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

I saw 2 triangular UFOs. They were flying over the I-5 Freeway (either just before the Wilsonville exit or just past it about a mile). At first I saw a pulsating large red light, and next to it were 2 solid very bright green lights. At first, when I saw the red pulsating light, I thought it was a stationary cell phone tower light that illuminated so planes would be able to see the tower, but then I realized this was a trail of three lights (one red larger pulsating light and 2 stationary green lights) and they began moving across the I-5 Freeway, ever so slowly traveling from east to west.

I was driving southbound along the I-5 Freeway at about 55 mph, and as I was driving, I was gradually moving closer to this object that was traveling across the freeway from east to west. As I got much closer, I was practically driving directly underneath it and I could see that all three lights were very well defined and that they were part of a triangular shaped object. I witnessed this for approximately 10 seconds as it sailed very slowly across the freeway going from east to west. I knew that a conventional aircraft could never move this slowly without crashing. Plus, this flying object had one very large pulsing red light (which planes do not have). And I could see it was a black or very dark gray triangle shaped object. Planes have flashing lights not the way this light pulsated. It reminded me of a heart beating for some reason. The two green lights on the other two corners of the triangle were green and florescent in color and much brighter than anything I have ever seen on conventional aircraft at night. I have never in my life seen anything like this! The speed that this triangular object traveled was like a hot air balloon or a blimp, which moved so slowly that it just seemed to float or drift above the freeway. Then the moment that this first object moved out of my field of vision (behind some trees) a second one that looked identical to the first one began moving across the freeway, appearing almost exactly the same distance away from me as when I saw the first object. It drifted at what seemed to be the exact same speed and made its way just directly over my van just like the first object. It was like a mirror replica of what I just saw and I was so excited that I got to see this again! And so I saw two triangular UFO's that looked exactly the same as the other, one flying slightly behind the other but near the first object as they both traveled over I-5 highway going east to west. It was really beautiful to witness this. I was close enough under the objects to see that they were triangular shaped and not just 3 lights. The three lights (one red and two green) were on each corner of the triangular object. Sorry I didn't take a picture or video record what I saw. I was unable to pull over on the I-5 freeway and it was dark at 11:49pm so unfortunately, I was unable to capture this magnificent event and such a very close view of these crafts made this the most spectacular sighting I have seen.

Might be a UFO

I was setting an item on my deck in the back of my apartment and I noticed a bright light blinking light coming from the sky. So I turn my head expecting to see a plane moving across the night sky but instead I see an almost motionless blinking light. I thought well maybe it is a satellite but then I noticed a satellite to the left of the light that was pretty faint in comparison.

I called my Roommate over to look at it to double check to make sure I wasn't crazy and I was seeing what I was seeing. She came to the deck and I didn't even need to point the object out. She noticed it right away. She saw it move in a little circle but it was so far up in the atmosphere it was barely noticeable.

The colors it is Blinking is red, blue, green and white. It is too far up to make out an actual shape. And who knows we could be wrong and it could just be a really low satellite.

Hovering craft with green, then orange, then yellow-white lights seen in night sky over housing development.

Was heading south on I-5 and noted 3 greenish lights in SE sky overhead, over I-205 area. Dismissed color as night was cloudy with light rain but the lights seemed bigger than normal. I was curious but kept driving as it was too far away to worry about.

As I drove off the freeway east onto Miley Road, over a housing development I noted a craft, hovering. It had steady green lights which then changed to orange, then yellow-white. I tried to get a good look at the craft as it appeared to be only 75-100 feet overhead and about the same distance from the road. It was oddly shaped, about as large as a small house, with 2 irregular-shaped upper tiers. It was somewhat rectangular but had an irregular shaped front I couldn't make out. I traveled down the road and got out of the car. I could not see it any longer. They sky appeared clear (I could see Venus and the other stars and a crescent moon - there appeared to be 3 pale lights high up in the sky, about where the craft was first seen. I heard no noise (and I was close enough to hear it if it was a helicopter).

Slow moving, quiet, dark object wandered up and to the South, avoiding a big cloud.

My friend had just left my house a few minutes before, and then called me from his cel phone. He said, "I don't know how far South you can see, or if you can see this. I'm looking at some sort of object in the sky." He told me that he was in the Les Schwab parking lot which is about 3/4 of a mile from my house. He said it was a huge black triangle shaped thing with rounded corners, no lights, no wings, no landing gear, no rotor, no other visible details. I said that I was carrying my cordless and was running down the street, that I'd keep talking as long as I could. He said that it was moving very slowly, and that it changed directions, then started moving up. Then I lost contact with him. I ran a total of about 2.5 blocks from my house into the parking lot of a retirement home. I looked toward the South and saw a black object in the sky. It was still daylight, clear sky overhead with a few clouds to the South and West. It was far enough away from me that I couldn't make out whether it was a triangle or a squashed diamond, but I could make out that it had corners at the widest part (wasn't a round ball and wasn't flat). I watched the object move very slowly up and to the South (a little bit East). It seemed to be heading into a big high flat cloud. Then before it entered the cloud, it changed directions. It seemed to come back toward me and a bit to the West. Then it went up and over the cloud, not through it. Then it continued to move South and up, very slowly. I watched it for a long time, probably at least 5 minutes, during which time my friend drove by looking for me. He went to my house. I walked backward through the parking lot to the street, keeping my eye on the object. By the time he came back up the road from my house, it was almost too small to see. I called KEX radio in Portland to report it. I was surprised that no one else had. It was right over I-5 most of the time. I also called the Oregonian news paper. They also said that no one else had reported anything. My house is on several flight paths. Small planes land and take-off from the Aurora airport to the South. There's a helecopter company there too. Also, jets fly overhead many times each day on route to/from the Portland International Airport, about 30 miles away. So I'm used to what aircraft and helecopters look like, how long they stay in view, and how they sound. This thing stayed in view far longer than anything else I've ever seen. It left no trail, and did not move in a straight line, but rather kind of wandered a bit. I heard no sound at all, but I would have expected to, if it were a plane or a helecopter.



NUFORC Note:

We have talked to the other witness to the same event, who was in a different location at the time of the sighting. However, the two witnesses were communicating by telephone. Triangulation on the location of the object may be possible. PD

Black rounded corner pyramid, or triangle moving slowly without lights, sound, or visible means of propulsion, Wilsonville, OR.

I was driving West on Town Center loop road, looking to the South at 8:27 PM local time. With the exception of a few high level clouds (cirrus), it was a clear day, 80 degrees. Looking over the top of Fry's electronics in Wilsonville, I noticed what I first thought to be a black mylar baloon floating above the parking lot. I looked again, and noticed that it was stationary even though there was a slight wind moving approximately 5 knots to the Southeast. I looked again, and realized that it was not a baloon, but was much larger and farther away than I first thought. I pulled into the Les Schwab parking lot on the North side of town center loop, stopped the car, and looked at it in more detail. We get a lot of aircraft in our vicinity since we are essentially in the Northern approach to Aurora airport. I thought that this might be one of the larger hellicopters that are operated by Evergreen Aviation, a Sykorski Sky-Crane, or similar. What struck me is that this thing was hovering , then moved toward the South. There was no sign of the rotor on top (normally I can see the disk that's formed by the rotor), there were no lights of any type (strange, being in the Northern approach of the Aurora Airport, and within an hour of dusk), no sound, no protrusions out the side for wings, no tail, nothing. I called on my cell phone to a friends house where I had just left. I explained what I was seeing, (I told her as it was happening that it was hovering, then moving to the West, then moved upward, then away to the South again. I asked if she could see it from her house (less than 1/4 mile away). She ran out and looked where I was describing, I lost the signal from her cordless phone and drove back to her house. I didn't find her at home, and decided that I must have passed her somewhere on the road without seeing her. I back tracked my route and found her standing down the street pointing to it. She said that It had continued to move away to the South and that she had watched it for 5 minutes. I could no longer see it since it had just become a dot in the sky, and I had lost sight of it while driving. She continued to watch it, until we decided that it had dissapeared into the distance, and drove back to her house. The best way to describe its shape is the following: I was viewing it primarily from the end rather than the bottom of the object. It was roughly triangle shaped as viewed from the end, but had rounded corners on all three corners. I described it to my friend as shaped like one of the black licorice candies you get at the theater. When I was describing it to her on the phone earlier, I said it was like a pyramid shape, but with rounded corners. My friend said that she saw it moving straight up, but that when she viewed it, that it had not gone into the clouds, but had continued to move upward, and had made a jog backward to avoid going through the clouds she saw. We compared our timelines, and decided that the cloud I saw it go through was before she had arrived at a location where she could see it, and that when she watched it, it had continued to climb, but avoided the other clouds on its way up. Compared to all other aircraft we see in the Wilsonville area in and around airports, this thing moved really slowly. I have experience being in and around aircraft, have flown in and piloted light aircraft including helicopters, and can not explain what I saw. I think that several other people may have seen this object since it passed over Interstate 5 in the vicinity somewhere between Boone Bridge (Willamette River) and the Donald exit (5 miles to the south of Wilsonville). If you need additional information (although I'm not sure I can remember anything else of significance) you can contact me.

Pulsating (like a strobe light) object in the sky, traveling south to north, then turning east.

The object was traveling south to north and the entire object was pulsating, much like a strobe light. It eventually turned east and disappeared, perhaps because my view was blocked by trees. The sky was clear and other objects we saw in the sky both before and after did not pulsate. I did see another airplane with flashing lights but it was not pulsating like the other object. It may have been nothing but I thought I would report it in case anyone else saw it. I'm sorry I can't give a more detailed description but that is all I saw.

The lights on what looked like landing lights on a large aircraft continued toward us. As I was approaching Wilsonville area it came staight at me then went out of sight within a 150 yds to the East of the freeway. There was no explosion or anything. if it was a helicopter or plane why would the lights go out while still 300 ft in the air.

I have never before, reported this event.What my whole family saw in summer of 1979 is the reason i have since been a sky observer ,and since always believed in ufo's.My main purpose of now reporting this is that,after all these years,i'm kind of hoping that by chance or a little luck,that someonelse in the town of Wilsonville,Il had seen something too, in summer of 1979.What we saw, was unbelievable.My two brothers,sister,and i were in back yard just messing around hanging out,when our step-father came out to get us to come in.As he was walking out in yard ,he just suddenly stopped dead in his tracks and stared up in sky.Of course naturally we looked up too.In the nite sky,to the left side of our yard or west ,a slow moving circle craft with several different colered lites,traveled across our backyard to the right or east.This craft was maybe 100 ft above the ground,as it went across our yard.This craft moved so slow,that we could hear a humming noise coming from it.It went across our yard at like walking speed.We all stood there and watched this craft travel headed to east.Once this craft crossed our yard we lost sight of it preety fast,,but only because of how low it was.the tree lines and houses made us loose sight of it.We wanted to chase it or follow it however,i think my step-father was so freaked out by this.That he insisted we all go in immedietley.Now ironically wilsonville was also well know for having a chemical waste dump in its town.The name of the company or name of dump i still remember.So will anyone else in that town whom lived there in the seventies.I just felt i had to tell this story.Seeing is believing.
