NUFORC UFO Sighting 66427
Occurred: 2008-10-24 19:53 Local
Reported: 2008-10-25 11:12 Pacific
Duration: 10 minutes
No of observers: 20

Location: Avila Beach, CA, USA

Shape: Changing
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

Heading south on the 101 from San Luis Obispo as I neared the Avila Beach exit I noticed what I thought was a bright yellowish star in the southern sky. It appeared to be getting larger as if it were an approaching aircraft. Then it dropped altitude gained rapid speed and came to a stop approx. 500 ft. over the 101. It was at this time that I noticed it had no aircraft beacon or navigation lights but was giving off one intense light that seemed to change color from yellowish to a bright white. As traffic approached cars were slowing and pulling off the freeway, others were speeding up and trying to flee the scene. As I travelled under the object I looked up and saw a dark circular edge around the light. The object then accelerated vertically at which time the color turned a redder hue. After reaching a height of approx. 3,000 ft. it headed west out over the ocean changing shape several times before dimming out as a foggy white light in a coastal low cloud layer. I pulled off the freeway at the Avila Beach and there were other people pulled off the side of the road trying to figure out what it was.

UFO near Diablo Canyon Power Plant, California!

Sighting was in Avila Beach California during a Wedding Reception with nearly 200 people that was held in a very large tent on a Golf Course.

I am a Wedding Disc Jockey and the father of the bride (who is also a friend) asked me to check to see when the Buffet was to be served, I left the music playing and went out the side exit of the tent to ask the servers when dinner was going to be served and as I came around the corner of the tent the servers were looking at the sky and asking me what is that?

Now at this point I am upset because they should be working not looking at the sky and as I looked up I see a silver object floating between 500 and 1000 feet in the sky over Avila Bay!

This caught me by suprise and I viewed the object for at least 7 minutes.

The weather was clear and it was a beautiful day (no Fog!), the object was floating in the air and at times would move in very small circles.. there was not any noise or lights, this object had no windows and was not spinning!

This UFO was near Diablo Canyon Power Plant and I expected to hear jet's as I believe this to be a no fly zone (I did not hear any!).

I did not stay out side to see the object depart and the photographer for the wedding was busy doing a slide show and I could not ask him to take photos!

I did not tell the guest's as it would have ruined the Wedding Reception!

I am not sure of the exact time of this sighting!

Craft sighted at a nucular power plant

I am an employee of pg&e corp. I ( we ) have never reported this incident to anyone except our buddies at work and family friends, I suppose in fear of our job, would be the reason or our collectivly not being able to describe what we saw. dcpp is a nucular power plant, each year we are constantly trained to be the best in our fields. I am currently a plant insulator, but was a plant operator for a time. On the morning that this observation occured we , myself and 3 fellow insulator/coating spealists, were to clean and recoat insulators on a transformer located at the north end of the plant. While waiting for a qualified electriction ( for safety purposes) an airplane was observed coming from the horizion toward us. As it came closer to our position I, we, all noticed that it was not a normal airplane. It had no sound coming from it's engine and no wings, as it came closer(2000 feet away) we noticed that it also had no lights. This being just after daylight was easy to see. The speed of the craft was approx. 300 mph. It then disapeared behind a knole approx. 1/4 mile north of the plant. We continued to watch, for a crash and flames, but in 30 seconds it reappeared heading out to sea, West, again at approx. 300 mph, but picked up speed and disapeared over the horizon at a very fast speed. Our eye level was at 90 feet above sea level, so we were able to see quite far out to sea. Visability was exceptional. The craft was not large, probably 100 feet long and 20 feet in diameter, my best guess. It was shaped exactly like a cigar, color of silver or bright white.




NUFORC Note:

Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate. PD
