Explanation: Balloon - Possible


Two dark objects linked by a cable or rope, each about 2-3x size of large trash can, moving North about 30kts, near STS airport

I live in Windsor, CA about 1 mile NE of Sonoma County Airport (STS). At 8:35pm local time on 5/26/2025 I was in my back yard with a clear view to the West, and noticed a set of two unusual small dark objects in the sky a short distance to the West that appeared to be linked together moving through the sky from South to North, about 1 mile North of main runway threshold, at around 1,000ft elevation. This is in the same area that is the typical takeoff flight path for the STS airport. Each object was roughly oblong or rectangular in shape and similar in size to the other, each about 2-3x the size of a large trash can. They were moving too fast to be unpowered balloon(s), probably 30kts +/- or more, and roughly maintaining altitude.

The objects were out of view in about 30 seconds after initial sighting. I was able to get photos with my phone at highest magnification, no time to get a larger camera or binoculars. There was no engine sound heard. The objects were moving together in a fashion that suggested perhaps the lower object was hanging or swinging from the upper one.

we were just visiting cali for context but when we reached for our phones to record it all our phones shut down. Even our smartwatches and Bluetooth earbuds lost connection. It was like everything electronic just died at once, The only sensation was a subtle vibrational hum not audible, but felt internally, almost like a low-frequency pressure in the chest and ears.

At approximately 1:30 AM on May 21, 2025, in Southern California, I observed a very large, bright pink circular object in the sky. The object appeared to have rings or some form of energy orbiting it. The skies were completely clear and the object made no sound.

It appeared to grow in size, as though it were approaching, then suddenly changed direction and disappeared. The movement was controlled and deliberate—unlike any satellite, aircraft, or meteor I’ve seen before. I have previously seen Starlink satellites and space launches, and this did not resemble those at all.

The object was visible for about 20 seconds. There was no sonic boom or engine sound. It did not flash or fade—it vanished instantly. The controlled motion and sudden disappearance were striking. I cannot identify this object using any conventional explanation.

Object was transparent round disk shaped, several modules reflecting sunlight inside, motionless above 30,000 ft

After four military helicopters flew over , I noticed a bright object in the eastern sky, at a time when the stars and planets aren't visible yet. At 45 degrees elevation, at 7pm,on Tue May 20,2025. It was not moving and needed further investigation. So I ran in and got my 7x50 binoculars which revealed a clear circular dome, disk with what looked like lights inside but were modules reflecting sunlight. These internal modules went from large to small x2 to form a circle. Each side connected to a spoke horizontally with a single vertical axle in the center. Intelligently designed....but not by humans? While in my front yard, I showed it to some people out for a walk. I also showed to my next door neighbor and son. Everyone seemed puzzled by the unusual object. By 7:30pm I had my telescope focused on it. I was able to get some stills by holding my iphone 13 up to my telescope eyepiece. During the entire observation, it remained in my telescope's field of view. The object didn't move or illuminate and by 9pm I could barely see it. I know it was higher then 30,000 ft because the jets en route to LAX begin their decent after crossing the 29 palms beacon. The next evening, May 21,2025 after bible study at 7:30pm, I looked up in the sky to the east . It was there again! I grabbed my bino's from my car to confirm it and share it with some people in the church parking lot. They were all fascinated!

Location: Hawthorne, CA, USA
Location details: I saw it from my backyard in the Wiseburn neighborhood in Hawthorne

Shape: Chevron
Color: Could not see.
Estimated Size: Unsure, but smaller than a plane
Viewed From: Land
Direction from Viewer: The craft was east from my perspective.
Angle of Elevation: 74
Closest Distance: Unknown
Estimated Speed: Unsure, but slower than a plane
Characteristics: Lights on object

A craft flashing white and red lights flew over my backyard. It emitted what appeared to be red flares opposite its flying direction.

At approximately 8:50PM I saw a craft flying northward over my home in Hawthorne, CA. The craft flashed alternating red and white lights at regular intervals. The craft appeared to be man made.

What caught my attention was that the craft emitted several red flares opposite of its flying direction. The red flares looked like roman-candle firework shots.

I could not see the craft’s fuselage clearly because it was the night. It appeared to be a chevron/diamond/triangular in shape based on the light configuration.

The craft was flying relatively slowly and low (it was still high in altitude, but not as high as a commercial airplane). It reminded me of the videos I saw of the drones in New Jersey in winter 2024.

Estimated Speed: FAST


Small craft traveling steadily at a rapid pace eastward from the ocean; no lights, no sign of propulsion; definitely not starlink

I was walking home with my fiance and I was casually tracking some object in the sky, kind of at the edge of our horizon, heading our way from the ocean. The sun had just set, and this thing had no lights on. So my first thought was a little jumbled; maybe an asteroid, maybe a bird. So then I quickly pointed it out to my fiance, interrupting our conversation and quickly said "look look look". She saw it pass overhead, as it ultimately made its way overhead, maybe a couple blocks north of us, before leaving our line of sight. She got a good glimpse at its closest but neither of us could figure out what it was.

I'm pretty familiar with the birds of CA, and no bird is that big or that fast, much less flies at such a constant pace. Lights would have been on had it been a plane or helicopter. Satellite would've been too high up and difficult to see due to light pollution, along with some lingering sunlight maybe at higher altitudes(?), so Starlink or anything else was out of the question at this time. It quickly covered quite some distance and we could definitely see it had some physical form, but very difficult to really discern much due to unclear altitude. Size and distance were super unclear.

I saw a huge glowing object I thought it had to be winery sign but was too huge and high in sky mother ship fading in/out of sight.

Friday/Saturday May 16th/17th of 2025.

Los Olivos, CA. 11pm-thru Midnight.

Driving along Foxen Canyon Rd around the midnight hour I was passing a particular winery called ‘Fess Parker’.

A huge glowing object was spotted a distance down the road, thought it was a winery sign that someone had made fancy with lighting. Especially since I could see one thing from afar and that was it fading in and out of visibility like a normal lighting on a sign when the sign is set to fade on and off.

Let me start with the description which I tried to remember the best I could as soon as I pulled over but with a lesser imagery photographically in mind/memory then I had originally planned and wanted because I had been still thinking it was a winery sign; so it might have lessened the photographic side of my memory a bit but I remember mostly all of what it look like except the very but of it. It was a huge mother ship looking almost black tower body, but widened fatter up to the dome that was on top.

The entire thing was brightly lit and bright enough in its orangish reddish mist hazey glowing outline that it emitted even a orangish almost reddish haze like glow around the dome part and most of the ship all the way to the bottom I guess as far as I was able to remember.

Strangely the middle section of the large widening chest like middle section almost looked like a armor middle section or something as if the ship had a armor middle section and even strangely that middle section was glowing brighter then all the rest. The left side was one solid color of ‘RED’ full solid red glow glowing of the whole solid color of that left section not just a red glowing outline but a entire glowing red panel & the left side was a solid color of ‘WHITE’ but oddly I also noticed a bit of clear light I believed thru that bright glowing white side but hard to notice why it might have looked like that in having a bit of clear light around the glowing white side. And again fully white solid glowing right panel. Plus additionally like the left White/clear glowing outline and solid white glow to that right white panel. It reminded me of a glowing armor middle section-section.

But the whole overall tower size mother ship was pretty much all black except the dome and the middle glowing section.

And like I said before to somebody it looked really old school looking with that glowing orangish reddish misty haze of orange around it that it looked EXACTLY like a mother ship out of a ufo movie in the 60’s or 70’s.

But the eerily thing is the whole time I was looking at all this I barely- (at this point just noticed red lights across or up and down can’t remember which way and yellow/gold lights up and down or across again can’t remember which lights in which directions it slipped in photographic memory)
-remembered that it had been fading in and out of visible. Complete visible mayb a little transparent looking behind the mist can’t exactly remember most likely the both, and it just kept sitting there for 10-20 seconds and slowly very slowly fading in and fading out.

It varied intervals even a few random intervals were thrown into a barrage or even a array of calculated attention intervals of disappearing and reappearing as it started to vary a little more randomly the more I noticed it had been there and that it couldn’t have been a winery sign as what’s reappearing had me kind of scared by the 6th or 7th time because I eventually at that point figured that can’t be a winery sign!

I thought I saw a white pick up truck with its headlights on in the fess Parker winery I’m not sure if someone might have been in there car later or not or whether I’m just thinking I saw the truck and thought someone might have been inside with the lights on, but that truck was definetly parked there over night.

I also thought let’s speed off just in case I don’t want to close to this thing if something’s going to happen. Given my self the heads up opposite of any danger.

I sped down the road a quarter mile maybe or less probably. Next winery was called Zaca something…I hadn’t been visiting winery’s just reading the names after the sighting. But pull out near the zaca winery I stopped jumped out turn around back and faced the winefield near fess Parker’s where the huge mother shop looking thing was hanging above the field. It was over the tree tops high as a low lying mount ridge line had been smaller little hills/mountain. But it hadn’t been too high in the sky was it was kuch higher then those things if at all. Not much higher the the ridge line at best.

I thought it might wanted to land solid give it space. It just kept fading. But a really creepy thing about it as I watched and noticed it it didn’t switch colors on its chest that were solid glowing around the opposite sides as if I were looking at its back because I had you know driven past it a quarter mile down the road thinking back that it should be what the back would look like white on the left red on the right as the colors would be the vice versa way around from the back…but no. Red left white right. All the same glow, orange glowing mist might have simmered down a bit, but virtually 100% the same with my steady fade intervals that were steadily the same durations.it just kept so I got it my car and that pretty much ended the rest of the night it didn’t abduct me or do anything so I have a good instinct that something might come back.

Seen a flying object cut through a low cloud directly in front of my car, then watched it sped away out of vision

While driving southbound highway 70 towards Marysville this morning, I noted the change in the shape of the cloud formations to my son, it rained last night and the sky was clear, but closer to Marysville low clouds were moving in, he said to note that we were getting ready to pass under a puffy cloud, I leaned forward to look at the cloud through my windshield as we drove under it and I noticed an odd shaped silver flying object that at first I thought was a plane much higher above the cloud, but as I watched it , it sliced through the low cloud, I realized it was much closer than I thought so I kept watching for it to come out of the cloud, as it did I noted the size was much smaller than I initially thought, and much closer, I realized at that point I was not observing a normal object, so I asked my son if he could see the object that was now racing out of my vision in the same direction I was headed. My son said yes, asked me what I thought it could be, and I told him I don't really know, but I know what it was not.... We both agreed it was a silver/white color and that it's size and shape were small and cylindrical and when it was almost out of sight oval. I would I estimate that it was flying between 100 & 200 feet about the ground in a steady rate of speed, faster than a plane could speed out of vision. The whole encounter lasted less than 3 minutes.

Large silver-white capsule-shaped object seen hovering silently in the clear morning sky above Highway 85 near the 101 merge in the Bay

On May 13, 2025, at approximately 8:40 AM, I was driving northbound on Highway 85 near the junction with Highway 101 in the Bay Area, California. The weather was clear, sunny, and visibility was excellent.

While driving, I noticed a large, capsule-shaped object hovering silently in the sky. The object was oriented horizontally and appeared to be completely motionless. It was silver-white in color, with a smooth surface that gently reflected sunlight—it seemed to glow softly but was not blinding or overly shiny.

There were no visible wings, rotors, seams, engines, lights, or exhaust. The object had no markings. It appeared to be quite large, much bigger than a drone, and did not resemble any known aircraft. There was no sound at all.
I observed the object for about 5–10 seconds before it passed out of my view due to the road curve and traffic. I was unable to take a photo due to driving, but I am absolutely certain of what I saw. It stood out clearly against the blue sky and did not match any man-made aircraft I’m familiar with.

I have never seen anything like it before. The experience left me shaken, curious, and confused, especially since I haven’t seen any similar reports from others in the area.

Large light light appearing and dimming. Unknown aircraft with blue/purple lights on tips. Strange “search light”

Before seeing the aircraft, there was a large bright light that appeared suddenly. I grabbed my binoculars and looked in the direction of it as I believed it was a shooting star. The light dimmed and revealed behind a bit of fog what seemed like a rectangular unknown aircraft sighted above mountains. Purple/blue lights at the end of each tip, craft seemed to have a search light moving back and forth from it. The object stayed put in the sky then shot out of the sky quickly at an irregular angle.

Three orbs were lined diagonally a line descending from left to right. These orbs were not on flight radar

We had just dropped off one of my friends and were going back to drop my other friend off when while we were doing a U turn I noticed three diagonals dots in the sky that appeared to be stationary. My friend and my mom assumed they were helicopters and so he checked FlightRadar24 but there was only one plane NE of us (the direction of the dots) which we could make out moving in the sky near the dots. We then went up to my friends house near St. Paul’s Church on foster road and still saw the lights. I captured 3 images, one near the U-turn and two near my friends house, and the objects appear to have a green aura around them in the last 2 images, and in the first image the bottom object has a red glow. The last image 2 of the objects appear to have an oval shaped object around them.

This object was bright, and moving slower than a plane so caught my attention. It was flying from south west towards north east.

A multi colored Orb was observed by my family and I. It was bright and was gliding slowly across the sky. My whole family saw it. I started videoing promptly. This is not the first time I’ve caught a uap where I live. I filmed a very similar object the next day. I will fill out a report for that as well.

Location: Independence, CA, USA
Location details: North of Independence, South of Bishop CA. Used compass and activity was around 15° NorthEast

Shape: Light
Color: White
Estimated Size: No idea, probably very big, couldn’t tell
Viewed From: Land
Direction from Viewer: 15° NE
Angle of Elevation: 21
Closest Distance: It appeared to be in Space so, really far
Estimated Speed: FAST. Covered 100s, maybe 1000s miles in seconds
Characteristics: Lights on object

Saw “star” object appear and disappear, pulled over to watch for 30min and there were multiple crafts.

I initially saw one while driving, looked like a bright star appeared and then slowly faded. Happened again clearly, & I thought it looked like it was also moving.

I pulled over off the 395 in the dark and started watching. It appeared over and over again, generally the same starting area and moved from left to right as it glowed bright and then faded.

Then there were 2, doing similar motions, but clearly moving independently from each other. Then there were up to 5 visible at times.

They appeared to be scanning an area of the sky, maybe mapping, so strange.
I tried to debunk as I watched! Satellites? No, not orbiting. Repeating area but at different heights, speeds, independent motions from one another. *Main one seemed brightest each time.

Starlink? No, Ive seen multiple starlinks, this was not that.

At one point they created a formation that looked somewhat like an upwards pointing arrow/symbol.

This just kept happening over and over, every 20-30 seconds they would reappear in same area and moved left to right.

My only possible explanation was some secret “space-drone” tech that we were using to do some type of scanning, communication, flight exercise, but i don't know.

Eventually the bright one appeared and made a quick short burst a short distance and stopped, then again, then again, three quick little bursts of movement before fading out again.

Almost looked like they may have been reflecting the moonlight, which was pretty full and at my back! Could be reflective light.

The activity I saw lasted for about 90min and I observed from a stationary spot for about 30-40 minutes.

I took long exposure photos with my phone and made a little timelapse too which helps see them!!!

I don’t know what it was but it was new to me, and exciting to watch!

Characteristics: Lights on object

28 lights traveling west to east very fast (not satellites)

me and my son were on a typical bike ride at about 830 I looked back at my son and as I looked back at him right above his head I saw the first light. I thought it was a satellite launch because we typically see those from my area where I live the SpaceX that takeoff from the Air Force Base in California, but as it kept moving closer, I knew it wasn’t that and I thought maybe it was SpaceX satellites cause we’ve seen those in the sky before definitely wasn’t that too low so as it got closer, I realize it was something weird. I pulled out my phone and began videotaping. I counted 28 lights. My son believes it to be one individual thing with the 28 lights I believe they were all separate individual crafts because the distance between the lights was changing. Some of them were shrinking some of them were growing like they weren’t all keeping up and then some of them would go a little bit slightly left or right like they weren’t they look like they’re perfectly going straight but you could see they were like going in and out a little bit very very fast and it wasn’t going up. It was going over and again i’ve seen satellites. I’ve seen them orbiting before I’ve seen all the SpaceX launches. It wasn’t that it was very hard for me to see it with my naked eye, but the phone picked it up way better my son saw it for a lot longer than I did. I saw it for two minutes whatever I recorded, but my son saw it for another minute two minutes after that cause his eyesight, obviously better than mine again it was traveling from west to east very fast higher than planes, lower than satellites and definitely in some kind of formation very scary. I’ve seen things before in the sky and I’ve always been able to maybe it’s this or maybe it’s that or it could’ve been this or could’ve been that but this is I have no I had no explanation or no theories just because the speed and the weirdness of it and it’s a couple weeks ago. I had some other thing I saw on a Sunday, but I have no video of that and it wasn’t anything near like this.

I was driving home from work down I-5 South. A large glowing white orb passed directly over my car in the southbound direction. It was moving at high speed and low altitude, and made no sound. It appeared to be passing through clouds, but not at a great distance. There was no tail of light following behind it. I watched it for about 4 seconds before it disappeared from sight.

I was driving east on Mission Ave going to pick up my son from school, when I saw about nine metallic objects in the sky flying in a some kind of formation. So I safely pulled over to start taking pictures and a video. By the time I pulled over and got my phone out there was only one. I tried filming the somewhat round object it was moving all over the place. All of a sudden the object seemed to split into two objects. Just second later four objects appeared out of nowhere approximately ninety degrees up to the left of the splitting two objects and vanished.

I saw white flashing things in the sky .They disappeared and reappeared. That happened more than once. I caught it on camera.

Me and my son were playing with bubbles outside our house. I randomly looked at the sky and saw some white objects moving in 'V' shape in the sky. First I thought they were white birds. As I thought they were more white than usual, I looked at them again. Then I noticed that they were appearing for a while and then disappearing. That happened more than once! It made me think that it could be a UFO. My son ran into the house and brought my phone and I recorded it. While recording, my son also saw the UFO lights.

It was a cylinder shape with a light on the bottom that looked foggy but it was a clear night moved unnaturally

I saw an unusual star in the sky and told my family we were watching the star object for a while wondering what it was. It was too bright to be an airplane or satellite and to close to actually be a star but just far enough. It kept changing colors between green, blue, white, and red all really bright LED almost. As we were watching this star I saw another object coming from it’s direction and assumed it was a satellite but as it approached I noticed the way it moved was very unnatural and the shape of it was also unusual. As it got closer I saw it had a cylinder shape almost with a big light on the bottom it started coming at us from west and took an odd turn not exactly 90 degrees but pretty close. When it turned south I noticed the light under it produced a fog like essence but it was a clear night no clouds nor fog in sight. As I pointed this out to my mom when I looked back the flying object was completely gone no noise at all no trail no nothing just one second it’s there then boom gone.

Explanation: Rocket - Possible


The object was rough around the edges, huge moving in a jerky fashion with no clear trajectory all over the sky

The object (there was only one) appeared suddenly. Tonight is the new moon - so it was definitely not the moon, and in any case was much brighter than even a full moon. It was much larger in appearance than the stars. The striking thing was its great brightness and irregular shape and path. It seemed to move arbitrarily with no clear path. The movents were jerky and at varying speeds. It covered the breadth of the sky in its path during the time it was visible. I have clear vision and had not used any mind altering substances. During the time I watched it, it began to take on a more circular shape, with an empty space in the middle

NUFORC Note:

Possibly the SpaceX rocket launch seen widely but time seems off by an hour?

A bright light, brightest in the sky crossed overhead, at about 70 degrees from the horizon, to the North. It had a soft, square shaped halo. I watched it for about 12-15 seconds until it disappeared in the clear sky. It was traveling at about the pace of standard aircraft, but it was off line from the normal jetliners that fly overhead towards their landing pattern at LAX.

White, glowing, hazy circular shape flying through the air. Brighter and denser white in center

My girlfriend and I were sitting in the backyard as we do often. We live in the flight path to Fresno International Airport so we constantly look up at the sky at planes and satellites. At around 8:45pm, my chair faces eastward and I look up. There was a big glow in the sky like a plane with one headlight flying through the fog. Except it was flying away from me. Bright white, almost egg shell color in the center with a glowy haze around it. About the size of a half dollar if I reached my arm out to pinch with my fingers. For a brief second I thought it might be the moon behind light, thin clouds and I just didn’t notice it. But it wasn’t, it was moving and the sky is clear. A small plane flying west, northwest clearly has his red blinking lights on with zero haze or distortion. This shows up on video as well. After about 30 seconds it was gone.

Aerial Phenomena Sighting Report

Date of Sighting: April 27, 2025
Time of Sighting: 8:41 PM PDT
Location: Silver Bell Mine Exhibit, Joshua Tree National Park, California, USA
Coordinates: 33.9330° N, 115.9597° W
Weather Conditions: Clear skies, no visible clouds, minimal wind

---

Description of the Event:

While pulled over at the Silver Bell Mine Exhibit (33.9330° N, 115.9597° W) along Pinto Basin Road inside Joshua Tree National Park, I observed a single bright white light moving rapidly across the sky.

Key characteristics:

Altitude: Low, consistent with typical commercial or military aircraft altitude (not high like a satellite).

Speed: Crossed the visible sky in approximately 40 seconds or less.

Sound: No sound was heard at any point, from either the object or the surrounding environment.

Lighting: One steady forward-facing light with no flashing or colored navigation lights (red/green/white strobes normally seen on aircraft).

Appearance:

Maintained a constant brightness.

Surrounded by a "hazy" or "cloud-like" glow despite clear skies.

The "cloud" caused subtle shifts in the way the light was cast, but no physical structure (wings, body, etc.) was visible even under enhancement.

Structure: No clear mechanical structure was visible.

---

Motion and Behavior:

The object moved in a straight, steady path across the sky.

No sudden changes in direction, speed, or altitude were observed.

No visible trail, contrail, or blinking lights.

---

Environmental Anomalies:

During and immediately after the sighting, there was a noticeable and unusual silence in the environment.

No desert wildlife sounds were heard — no insects, no birds, no typical ambient noise normally expected in a remote desert location.

---

Photographic Evidence:

Two photographs were captured during the event.

Enhanced versions of the images show:

A single bright point source with a slight trailing or smearing effect.

No obvious mechanical structure visible.

No signs of multiple lights, strobes, or color navigation indicators.

we rented an air bnb in 29 palms, wonder valley. we were in the hot tub for stargazing. a large bright light got closer and closer. as it got very close i could only see it was bright white but no details, no sound. surrounded by a super strange looking fog/aura i can’t explain. my husband even said is that fog or the glow? we were both frozen as it passed over, my phone was dead, his was near but we didn’t move. i moved closer to him a little scared, as it was closer and sort of at maybe drone height you could clearly see this aura and brightness that didn’t make sense. it seemed to pause, and my husband said “is it shining the light on us?” it felt and looked like it was shining its light down on us….but it wasn’t a beam, it’s hard to explain, just brightness. i moved closer to him again, i didn’t want to be scared but again it was like nothing i’ve ever seen. it was close enough to see details, and i feel like it could see us. it slowly moved away further and then disappeared. since then i just want to see it again, if my husband hadn’t of seen it too i would be questioning myself. we don’t drink, and i’ve been in the wilderness quite a bit…..

Dark disk zipped out of no where over garage hovered without movement then zipped away.

At around 10:30 PM I was sitting at the window in an empty room on the second floor with many objects in the windowsill. I was wide awake just looking out the window, suddenly a strange dark Heather gray disk zipped from seemingly nowhere and stopped above my garage, stayed stationary for about 30 to 40 seconds, it seemed to make the surrounding area darker than it already was, then zipped away into nothingness. During the event I felt calm but felt as though I couldn't and or shouldn't move. After the event I got this overwhelming depressed heavy feeling. I'm not sure when it happened or if I'm the one that did it but everything that was in the windowsill ended up in a box on the top shelf of the closet in the room, I have no memory of putting the objects in the box.

To the authority responsible for monitoring and analyzing unidentified aerial phenomena.


I am submitting this report based on what I observed during my night shift at the above-mentioned location, at dawn on Monday, April 21, 2025.


At approximately 2:47 AM, I observed an atypical white light in the sky, which appeared stationary and centered over the heavy crane area. Upon closer inspection, I identified an unusual flying object, oval in shape, dark gray in color, with a faintly reflective surface. The object hovered slowly over the port, making no noticeable sound, then came to a complete stop above one of the cranes for approximately four seconds.

After the brief pause, the object left the area at an unusual speed, moving almost instantaneously, in an unspecified direction. I was unable to visually track it thereafter.


I am submitting this report to inform you of the incident. I confirm that what was observed does not resemble any aircraft or satellite known to my experience. I defer the assessment of the incident to the competent authorities.


With my sincere appreciation.

Duration: Five minutes or so
No of observers: 2

Location: Atwater, CA, USA
Location details: In my backyard, on my deck

Shape: Triangle
Color: Grayish
Estimated Size: 50 feet across, maybe 15 feet in depth

Angle of Elevation: 90
Closest Distance: 1000 feet
Estimated Speed: 80 mph
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

An explosion, followed by a triangle shaped smoky/cloudy craft flying over our home and out of sight.

Sunday night, April 20, at about 9:25, my wife and I were on our deck enjoying our new firepit. It was a Perfectly clear, starlit night with not even a breath of wind anywhere. Suddenly we heard a very loud explosion, like a July 4th firework going off maybe about a mile northwest of us, over the City of Atwater. I told her, "Man! That was loud! What was that?" Less than a minute later, I happened to look northwest of us and saw a blurry illuminated spot in the sky, maybe about 1000 feet in altitude near where the explosion may have happened. It looked like just a small cloud that looked to be illuminated from the ambient light only. I stood up and pointed out the area and asked my wife, "What is that??" I then told her "It's probably just the smoke cloud rising up from whatever that explosion was that we heard. I expected it to continue rising like a small mushroom cloud and dissipate. We then heard several emergency sirens coming from that same area, and I told her they must be responding to whatever exploded. Then we watched as the smoky/cloudy object ascended only a little bit and then stopped in mid-air which I thought was very odd. It then began heading our way, still about 1000 feet up. I said, "That is weird." Based on many years of experience estimating speed for my job in law enforcement, I'd estimate it was going about 75-80 mph. It was a triangle in shape, with small, fuzzy, spherical nubs on the corners, not sharp ones. It was flying parallel with the ground, with one of the corners leading, directly in the middle and it was not rotating. Nothing metallic or solid was seen at all but at the same time, it maintained its exact shape 100%. I can only describe it as the shape of a blurry, cloudy, triangle, with a cloudy or smoky appearance. There were no blinking lights and no noise whatsoever. We were just looking at this mass approaching and flying over us with our mouths open saying, "What the heck IS that thing?" It continued toward our house and flew right over it at the same altitude; not descending or ascending. The weirdest thing is that although it was cloudy or smoky, it wasn't dissipating, changing shape at all, growing, nor shrinking like smoke, vapor, or clouds will do in the atmosphere. It stayed the EXACT same triangular shape. Keep in mind, there was no wind whatsoever nor any breeze at all and there were no other clouds at all anywhere in the sky. We looked at the tops of very tall redwood trees next door and in our neighborhood and they were perfectly still with ZERO wind movement. So, this couldn't have been something blown along by a low-level wind current or anything. (A check of the local weather at that time will back that up). It passed directly over us in absolute silence and we watched it maintain its speed, altitude and triangle shape until it flew out of sight southeast of us deeper into the McSwain area southeast of the city of Atwater. It then flew far enough away we could no longer track it. My wife said the incident really spooked her and she wanted to go inside which we did. I'd estimate a size measurement of around 50 feet across and when it was directly overhead, it was about 1000 feet up. What man-made objects look or behave like this and especially without making even a whisper of a sound?

UAP sighted from my building

Was on the top of my apartment building around 12 o’clock and looked up and noticed what I thought was a jet traveling north west over the western part of San Francisco. Upon closer inspection, it did not look like a jet plane. Got my iPhone out and put on the video recorder and started recording it. From a visual point of view, it appeared to be what looked like a mark that a piece of chalk would make flying in the sky. But looking at the recording, it has indistinct edges. I watched it for about a minute 15 seconds as it went further and further west over the Pacific. Also, looking at the recording there appears to be a strobe effect throughout the whole body of the uap. I also recorded it from normal frame to maximum Zoom function.

Nightly bright lights in sky, odd movements, size compared to lit buildings on ground is huge. Multiple craft nightly descend behind mountain range, as if to land. One remains. Through binoculars red & blue flashing lights are visible. Around 2-5 am activity is busiest. No sound, no trails. They blend in with stars unless you have time to watch. We watch from our porch over coffee from 3-5 am, since November. A couple of planes have gone around them or changed direction to avoid entirely. Craft are exceptionally fast. Lights go out at times, then reappear.

NUFORC Note:

Object in video is likely venus, which was very bright and low in the eastern sky at that time.

My husband was outside smoking a cigarette when he saw a weirdly patterned line of lights that were connected that flew in a straight line. It was bigger than our house. He yelled for me to go outside & when my 3 kids & myself ran outside we saw exactly what he saw. Personally to me it almost looked like a flying saucer sideways but he saw it as just a straight line. Then it just slowly disappeared as it continued in its straight format almost as if it was fading out in the distance. It lasted approximately 40 seconds from start to finish.

Single bring light, moved fast horizontally across the sky. Visible for about 5-10 seconds.

My sister, her husband, daughter and myself were sitting outside my home watching a movie. From the corner of my eye, I noticed a relatively bright light appear to the west, above my house. It moved quite fast from West to North-Northwest and then disappeared in about 5-10 seconds. I estimate the angle was about 60degrees. I checked and there appear to have not been any rocket launches at VDB, no Starlink satellites passing over and also not the ISS at that time. Checked Flightradar and confirmed there were no flights at that time (the object also moved a lot faster than planes, and was just a single white light); What also struck me was how horizontally above the sky it seemed to move. My sister saw the same. The object did not seem to have a tail, just a single white light/dot.

Light appeared in dark sky in place. An airplane flew by then it proceeded to follow it.

I was watching the sky then I see a bright light appear out of no where. I thought it too bright to be a star so I figured it was a plane but there weren’t any red, green or white flashing lights and it was just staying still in one spot. I start to record and zoom in and it was a bright white circle with a flashing yellow ring bordering it. I couldn’t believe it and thought it was maybe something I’m seeing from space. However, when an actual plane flies by with its flashing red and white lights and I compare the two I definitely can tell it’s not a regular airplane. The airplane flies past the orb and the orb begins to follow. I didn’t get it on camera but after the orb was out of my view a couple of other planes fly past in the same direction.

wake out from house seen the bright moon looked left and seen a bright light move fast out the sky

I stepped outside to grab something from my truck and noticed how bright the moon was. While I was looking at it, I turned toward the east and saw a bright light in the sky. It was kind of above me at first, then it suddenly shot off really fast into the sky. It all happened so quickly, I didn’t even have time to react. I’m sure it wasn’t a drone—no drone has a light that bright—and it definitely wasn’t a plane because it moved way too fast. The light was super bright, brighter than anything I’ve ever seen. It didn’t disappear behind the houses like it had fallen—it looked like it flew straight out into the sky until I couldn’t see it anymore. It looked kind of like an orb, but also like a really bright light. It wasn’t Starlink or a shooting star—it was bigger and brighter than both, and it moved fast in a straight line heading east.

I saw a "tictac" flying in the sky. Unremarkable except it had no obvious wings or protrusions, made no sound, left no trail.

I noticed a pill or "cigar" shaped object flying across the sky in a straight line from a south-east direction. I was in my backyard at the time. I assumed it was a passenger plane or something else from the San Jose airport because it seemed to be traveling about the right height and speed for one, but there were no wings. There was no trail behind it and there was no sound coming from it that I could hear. Admittedly it was high in the sky, but I watched it travel in a straight line at a steady speed for almost a minute and I could find no wings or other protrusions on it.

There are cameras around my property (pointed at the ground, not the sky unfortunately) so I can provide timestamps. I noticed it approaching from the south-east at 5:27:35 pm, and then I watched it travel across the sky from a spot in the garden without any trees until 5:28:17. By that point it was close to disappearing over the roof of my house, and I ran inside to get binoculars. It seemed to be going in a straight line toward the north-west. By the time I found the binoculars and got to the front porch at 5:29:09 I couldn't see the object anywhere.

I don't know why it caught my attention at first because at 5:27:34 I was facing west, standing at my garage side door with my keys in hand about to unlock it, and at 5:27:35 I looked up over my shoulder and did a double take. The experience felt odd, like my brain noticed something it couldn't categorize and then fixated on it. When I described it to a friend afterwards, I said it looked like a silver pill in the sky. I've looked at some pictures and footage of "tictacs" tonight and I guess that's the closest fit to what I saw. There were no lights on it as far as I could tell. It made no erratic movements. The sky was blue and clear so I had a good background to see it against. I don't know how to estimate the speed it was traveling at, but it didn't seem to be going unusually fast or slow compared to regular aircraft. If it wasn't for the lack of any visible wings or protrusions I would have assumed it was a plane or a drone.

That's everything I remember. Hope it's useful for you. I am not comfortable making any video footage of myself public and I do not wish to give you my name.


NUFORC Note:

It is ocommon to not be able to make out the wings on high flying aircraft.

Estimated Speed: Not that fast, but it’s movements were abnormal.
Characteristics: Lights on object

It seemed to be shaped like a boomerang, with two balls at the end which had lights and moved very advanced, rolling chair legs. Flat

The sunroof of the car was open so I was able to see through it clearly, that’s when a large object began to float its way over all of the cars waiting on the red light to change. I could clearly see a boomerang like shape and almost like two balls on the end of them. Each one had a speck of light coming out from the middle of the ball which created a dot, once over head it looked much brighter but once it kept going the lights almost seemed to follow where the cars were at and not stay at the bottom. It also looked like a more fuller type of boomerang shape, and wasn’t a deep V like shape.

White circles near the Moon that looked like floating balloons

On April 6, 2025, around 3:35 PM PST, I saw 8 white circular objects in the sky near the moon. I caught the sight unexpectedly and they were moving one after the other, not in sync, but, they moved as if they were being controlled by something as if they were like drones and disappeared instantly when I looked away for a split second. The disappearance was so quick that I had no chance to take a photo or video, as I was in the process of leaving my house and caught the sighting unexpectedly. I had no time to react or grab my phone, but I know without a doubt what I saw. The more strange part was that the objects were circular from my point of view, looked very white, visible for about 10 seconds, and there was no sounds, no trails, nor glowing associated with them. The objects were visible for only a brief moment, and I could tell they weren’t very high up in the sky. They seemed to be in the lower atmosphere, far away from my location in Azusa. They were not in space or at a high altitude like satellites might be. I have no idea what they were, but the movement and sudden disappearance of all 8 objects make it clear to me that this was not something normal. At the time, I was alone, and there were no other planes or aircraft visible in the sky, making the sighting even more unusual. The event was so strange that I am convinced it was something beyond a typical man-made object or natural phenomenon. The objects were definitely not balloons, drones, birds, or any typical aircraft, and I haven’t been able to find any reasonable explanation for what I saw. I know I’m not the only person who has experienced strange sightings, and I hope that by sharing my experience, others who may have seen similar events can connect and help build a clearer picture of what might be happening. I would like to help ensure that these types of encounters are investigated and that any potential answers are uncovered, even if I can’t fully explain what I witnessed. I checked news outlets and searched online to see if anyone else in the area had reported similar sightings on the same day, but I couldn’t find any information or mention of it anywhere. There were no reports in local news, social media, or UFO-related websites, which makes this sighting even more curious. Given the unusual nature of what I saw and the fact that no one else seems to have reported anything similar, I believe it could be something.

Object appeared to naked eye as a metallic rectangle that seem to crumple up and expand at an inconsistent rate

I was just about to turn on to my street when a flashing object caught my eye. My first thought was it was a bunch of balloons someone released. I realized it wasn’t when it took on the shape of a rectangle. Even though I had to be somewhere shortly, I pursued the object so I could get a better glimpse and a video. I didn’t go that far in pursuit because I didn’t want to loose the opportunity to take a video. To the naked eye, the object appeared to change shape like it was crumpling up and expanding. It seemed to be roughly 500 ft in the sky and the size of a refrigerator. I also observed it moving slowly to the northwest. Luckily the house nearby had a flag that indicated the wind blowing to the northeast. I would have pursued further if I didn’t have to be somewhere shortly.

Multiple day occurrence. Silent orb over Bolinas; tail light split off, rejoined orb cluster. Later car mysteriously died.

This event started two days ago when I saw an orb over Bolinas it then flew over me where I was going from Bolinas to the Stinson Beach Lagoon it was silent and what appeared to be the tail light of what I thought or made sense of in my mind as a helicopter that was silent broke off from it and went back to what I see in my original picture looks like 20 satellite orbs around the main flashing one. This continued as yesterday when going to bed I heard two helicopters fly overhead as I turned off all my house lights with a head cold and the pressure in my head and chest was so intense it lifted my chest out of bed knowing that there is nothing I can do I settled my nerves and went back to bed and checked the camera in the morning what I saw on the camera was there was no noise recorded like I heard other than a faint helicopter flying over but the car lights in my driveway turned on and eight minutes later turned off the car was dead when I came to it this morning and it had a completely charged new battery before this event occurred.

Estimated Speed: 30-35 mph


Octahedron, dark metallic, 600-900ft away, followed parallel w vehicle at same speed, turned 90 degrees away, no lights or sounds.

Friend and I were driving on the east side of Porterville, not too far from the high school, approximately 8-9 pm. It was a clear, cool night, and I was seated in the passenger seat with the window down. We're traveling maybe 30-35 mph? I just looked outside to my right and within my peripheral vision, I noticed something. I looked up at the object and, in amazement, I pointed at the object and stated to the friend driving something to the effect of "look at that."

The object appeared as if the craft was following our vehicle. It was keeping the exact same speed as us and following parallel with us, approximately maybe 600-800 feet away, give or take 100ft or so. It was night and the object appeared like a dark charcoal-colored metallic object with no lights, so it was hard to give an exact distance. This object appeared maybe the size of a box truck? Again, hard to say the exact size and distance, as one can affect the other. The object also appeared to have markings/engraving/designed on the metal. I could see these markings due to the moon reflecting on the top right side of the object.

Anyway, I immediate exclaimed "look at that" and pointed at the object. Immediately after I pointed at the object, it made a 90 degree turn away from the vehicle while keeping the same speed. There was no stopping, or slowing down, an immediate 90 away. Also, the craft was completely silent, no sound emitted at all. This craft turned away from us and headed toward town, appearing to fly right over the middle of the city, appeared the same speed. After watching it 10-15 or so seconds I lost sight of it.

To summarize, octahedron/diamond shape, dark metal, appeared like design/markings (I could seen the moonlight reflecting off one of the 8 sides, top right), no lights, no sound, followed parallel with our vehicle at our speed, 90 degree turn away the second I pointed at it. I'd love someone to contact me for more information or take a serious report as what I saw was, I believe, extremely rare.

Stationary object in the sky

A cylindrical, dark object was observed in the dusk sky at 7:50 PM on March 29, 2025, in Richmond, California. I had actually been watching the object for roughly 10 minutes before I began filming it, as it caught my attention by remaining seemingly motionless in the sky. When it didn’t appear to move, I decided to grab my phone and start recording.

The object appeared to be stationary, or possibly moving away from me very slowly. It made no sound that I could detect, aside from the usual car traffic in the area. I did not observe any lights coming from it or around it. No other objects were visible in the sky at the time. The weather was clear with no clouds.

I was viewing the object from a second-story window of a house located on a hill. From that position, the object appeared slightly to the north and west of me, at an estimated angle of elevation between 20° and 25° above the horizon. I watched the object until approximately 7:57 PM, which is when I believe I could no longer see it as the sky transitioned into complete darkness.

8 orbs in a horizontal formation then start splitting up into groups of 4 and slowly fading in and out

Me and my 2 friends were checking out the stars in pebble and 8 or so fiery orange orbs popped up flying together in a horizontal line, at least a mile up into the sky, then after we had all acknowledged it, it began to shift into groups of 4 while the other lights went away, each orb being a pretty long distance between the other. Then we recorded the rest. Didn’t see anything once they went dark.

Orb traveling at high rate of speed and disappears

Was driving westbound on 580 when I saw a very bright cream colored orb in the sky to the north of the freeway. At first I thought it was a very low flying airplane but then realized that there were no other blinking lights; just the bright orb. The orb was moving at a fairly constant rate of speed, but then began to accelerate significantly. Then it sped super fast to the west and disappeared. At no time was there a trail or tail, just the bright orb.

Red orb types that illuminated sky

I was outside in my garage tinkering; when I noticed my dog just staring/affixed into the night sky. Kept unusually staring & I’m thinking what’s got his attention, Thinking maybe just the stars ? So I walk out of the garage, ook up and low and behold I’m seeing what at first appeared to be red search flares ? But no , These”5 “flares”came up one @ a Time reached an elevation of approximately 10/15 thousand feet? After the red illumination fizzled out, They all turned into what appeared to be a grey like almost invisible orb. Still barely visible to the naked eye,was able to actually track them moving horizontally as does a plane.This was at approximately 20,000 feet level? Both my daughter and I were just amazed..

Three silent lights formed a triangle, spiraled beautifully overhead, then shot upward and vanished.

Last night, something extraordinary happened right above my house. I was outside, enjoying the calm evening air, when I noticed three soft white lights gliding gracefully through the night sky. They flew in perfect formation, arranged in a flawless triangle, moving steadily from the east toward the west. There was something mesmerizing about the way they traveled, completely silent, as if the sky itself was holding its breath.

As the lights passed directly overhead, something even more astonishing occurred. The three circles began to spiral around each other in an elegant, almost choreographed dance. They weaved and twisted with a kind of fluid beauty that felt otherworldly, as if I was witnessing a moment meant for no one else. The way they moved seemed both purposeful and playful, as though they were putting on a show for anyone lucky enough to be watching.

And then, just as suddenly as it began, it ended. The lights straightened their formation, paused for the briefest second, and then shot straight up into the sky. In the blink of an eye, they vanished into the vastness above.

There was no sound. No hum, no roar—nothing but the quiet night around me. I stood there for a long time, staring up at the empty sky, wondering what I had just seen. It felt like a dream, but I know it was real. It was a moment I will never forget.

I was driving southbound on hwy 101 when I saw the object shoot across the sky from left to right at an incredible speed. It was a saucer shape and had flashing red lights. It then stopped instantaneously and hovered for a second before making a sharp 90 degree turn and shooting off in a different direction at again an insane speed instantly without seeming to have to accelerate. Like that it was gone. I was on the phone with my brother at the time and described what I was seeing to him as it happened.
