I saw 4 to 5 large red lights in the formation of a Diamond or square outline. The lights slowing glided into a triangular alignment & seemed to slowly tilt before no longer being visible. There was a small aircraft that shortly came through the same route.

Shape: Flash
Characteristics: Left a trail, Electrical or magnetic effects

I was traveling Eastbound on I-10 in through the city of Alhambra, when by two friends and I saw an extremely bright flash. When we looked out and up, there was a bright streak traveling North to South and at a VERY high rate of speed. I’ve seen meteors and comets, this was neither one. I’ve never seen anything like this before, the streak it left behind was bright glowing white with some yellow that faded, the best way for me to suscribe it would be as if an electrical wire were to be over loaded and glowed. I was hoping my dash cam caught what we saw but when I tried to review the footage my dash cam froze about 1/4 mile from where we saw it.

Bright orange ball from NE to SW, transforming itself to a boomerang shape

On October 15, 2017, Sunday morning, between the hours of 1AM to 1:30AM, my wife's son (32 years of age), and I were outside the patio conversing about astronomy. I was showing him how to locate North star and the Big Dipper, with my green laser. It was getting cold that morning, he then went inside the house to put something warm. While he was inside the house, I panned to the Northeast sky and saw a bright orange flame-like ball from afar, about one mile away. As I was in awe, it approached towards my house, over the patio at zenith, I then grabbed my 9 x 63 binoculars, but could not focus on the object. The flame-like ball transformed into a boomerang shape, and it appeared to have a cloudy, blurry, fuzzy, hazy surrounding the fire-ball blades of the boomerang shape. It then came down to a lower altitude.

I then shouted out to my wife's son to come outside and said, hurry-up!, that he needed to see this. I then passed him my 9 x 63 binoculars and told him to try and focus on it. He said he could not focus on it. As it was getting further away from my house, I decided to point my green laser at it, and it made contact to a solid green dot on the object. The object then disappeared about less than half mile out.

We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he sounded to us to be quite serious-minded. We suspect that he is an excellent witness, and highly reliable. PD

It didn’t appear to be a helicopter or airplane.

It disappeared, then came back, then was gone again.

bright light lit up Alhambra, CA 12:45am, so bright that all street lights turn off

I saw a flash or bright lights that lit up the entire sky at 12:45 AM. Also, all the street lights went out, I'm guessing the photocells in the street lights sense it was daytime and it turn off..

after a 1-2 minutes the street lights came on again. my two neighbors also saw the same thing.

Bright flash of light and streak of light over Alhambra, CA

Standing outside my apartment about to go in when I saw a bright flash of light that seemed to come from almost directly above me, in a sort of northerly direction. As I turned to look I saw a streak of light falling from the direction of the flash (or seemed to be falling), downwards angle, towards the east. The streak of light was shaped almost like a teardrop, and I'm pretty sure I saw it change color from a pure white to a bright orange before either disappearing or falling out of my point of view. There was no sound, and the entire event lasted less than 5 seconds. To be honest, I don't think it was a UFO, but I'm kinda hoping it IS one, because to my uneducated eyes, it looked like a missile or a plane exploding, either one of which would be bad....

3 Black ovals in the sky and a floating movie camera

This is NOT a UFO report. I just thought it was really strange all the same. I saw three black ovals in the sky. Hanging from them was one movie camera. One of those big professional reporter sized cameras. The camera was looking around all by it self. No one was in sight. It was no higher in the sky than a two story building. After about two minutes it slowly took off east into the sky and then turned south. I couldn't see any supporting cables. Thats what made it really weird! And the black ovals were REALLY BLACK! The sharpest, clearest, brightest BLACK you have ever seen! The street it was hovering over was Vally Blvd and Garfield in Alhambra CA 91801.

Of course there are no such things as UFO's. I think it was just some hollywood guys checking out the city for sites to film. The funny thing is. I could NOT hear any helicopter noises comeing from the ovals. Nothing, nada. Weird huh?

UFO Sighting near Los Angeles

At 7:10pm I was driving on the I10 going east into Alhambra. High above CA State University Los Angeles I saw what appeared to be UFO. What I saw matches the photo of the UFO photographed in Las Cruces, NM. It looked like a dome top and it was circular, it had lights around it and looked like it had an upside down triangle shaped bottom. It was at a slight angle as it hovered so I was able to see it clearly. I believe others on the freeway could see it as there was a bit of a jam and cars were slowing down, I believe, to look at it. The evening was a bit hazy but I could see that there was something hovering over the university. It was fairly high up and about the size of a small house, definitely bigger than a car. I lost sight of it as I was trying to drive on the freeway and look for it. It appeared that there was light emanating from the craft, I couldn't tell if the light was coming from the ground or from the craft itself. If anyone could help and give me some info via email I would greatly appreciate it.

This craft was NOT unidentified. It was in fact a P-2 Orion used primarily as an electronic intelligence gathering craft.

What I found unusual about this sighting was that I observed this craft over a heavily populated city at an altitude of no more than 2,000 feet and was apparently suffering from some type of powerplant malfunction, for I observed white smoke eminatting from the port outboard engine.

What I found most troubling was that when I contacted Los Angeles International Airport and a local Air Force information office, I was told in no uncertain terms thatI DID NOT observe the mentioned aircraft.

After being informed that no military aircraft were on any flight plan within this city's area, I did not even waste my breath relaying what I saw.



NUFORC Note:

We believe the witness may allude to a P-3 "Orion" aircraft. A P-2 is a "Neptune." PD

Location: Alhambra Golf Course, CA, USA

Shape: Formation
Characteristics: Emitted other objects

While golfing I and six others observed a single round solid object in n/e sky. It broke into 3 objects smaller than the 1st, then formed a triangle. Triangle had another object in the middle.

In the middle of the day I noticed an object which at 1st glance could've been mistaken for a balloon in the sky. The difference being the object NEVER moved. It remained motionless while birds and planes went past it at a much lower altitude. After about 20 minutes the object still remained. I didn't mention anything to my friends because I knew they would think I was joking. After asking one of the other guys in my golf foursome to look he and I both observed the object spliting into 3 additional globes. They were white like the original one. They were smaller in size by comparison. I freaked. But what startled me the most is when they then formed a triangle. Tingles shot up my spine and my friend and I started to call the to others to look. It was witnessed by 5 more people including the next group of golfers behind us. The objects zoomed away and I continued to see the original shpere. It too eventually disappeared or I lost it in the bright sun. But about an hour and a half later before I finished my round of golf I saw it again. Only to lose it again in the sky. Now I believe.

Luminous green object seen in slow descent before winking out.

On Oct. 2, 1999 at 1:45 AM, I was watching television in my livingroom. My eye was caught by something visible through the sliding glass door which is east facing. I quickly turned my head to see what it was. (The sliding door is located at a 90 degree angle from one's line of sight while looking at the TV.) What I saw (briefly, but very clearly) was a luminous green ball, about the size of an aspirin held at arms length, slowly descending in an east, northeast line. It disappeared while still visible above the tree line. That is, the light "went out" or "turned off." The length of time from the point where I turned and first observed the object in its descent, to the point of its disappearance was approximately three seconds. I might mention that the object was virtually the same beautiful, luminous emerald green as another object I witnessed in a much longer and more dramatic context almost forty years ago in Albuquerque, NM. These are the only two occasions when I have seen such an object, but the striking color of the first sighting has always remained vivid in memory. The recently (but briefly) seen object had the same coloration.

My late husband (27) (printer), my son (8 yrs old), and I (25) (worked in a bank), went to a fast food place to get a late lunch, and on our way out of the restaurant saw a flying saucer hovering above the telephone lines. It was metallic, about 500 ft wide and 50 ft. in height (at it's 1/2 sphere shaped top). And had white lights circling at it's widest part. As we watched the lights rotate we recieved a message from the ship.

"People of Earth; unite and love each other" Then I looked at my son and he at me and we repeated the message verbatum. After that, we looked back towards the ship and it was gone. We were not scared by this experiencce, we just went home to eat.

That night as everyoone slept, I looked up at the sky and saw hundreds of lights with strange movements, and some that traveled in threes. It was reported in the local newspaper that 10,000 sightings were reported that night.

I have made one report this is my second. I just didn't know who to tell about it.
