Location: Barstow, CA, USA
Location details: Mojave desert, clear sky, I do understand there are military but this is not military.

Shape: Disk
Color: dark metal
Estimated Size: smaller than the width of my home

Direction from Viewer: west behind my home
Angle of Elevation: 90
Closest Distance: I am horrible at guessing this
Estimated Speed: under 60mph
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Flew over my home, extremely close above me. Disk was flat overhead and as it continued, scooped up and vertical, showing me its shape

This event was followed by weeks and weeks of orb sightings, strange phenomena in my home, precognition, telepathy, anomalies and a shared but independent visitation between me and my 10 year old daughter. This specific event of the disk took place on an extremely significant night to me. It was what would be my big brother's 38th birthday. He was murdered Friday, Mar 13, 2015..

Before I get into the actual UAP sighting, I think that how there was a build up to this could be helpful in reporting and documentation of such phenomena. I have zero history of being a person who is a liar or having believed any clairvoyance or really anything that could be considered spooky. I was born into the cult of Jehovahs Witnesses (no superstition within that doctrine) and was excommunicated at about 26 years old. Then I became a fundamentalist Muslim Feb 2017 until I deconstructed my beliefs very early 2020 when I went through the angry atheist phase. I also have no personality disorders and have been seeing a therapist before, during and after these events, making sure i'm not falling into religious psychosis or schizophrenia.

The synchronicity of UAP, ET/IDs and my brother comes with some compelling evidences that I have photos for but will leave that out for now. I also feel it significant to mention that before this event, my 10 year old daughter stood outside and invited the aliens, directing her comments to the orb and universe, into our home. The morning after my daughter did this, she woke up with a nose bleed and telling me in great detail the "dream" she had of two different ETs who introduced themselves to her from her closet. As she described the ETs to me my stomach felt sick, as I saw in my room, awake and the same night, the same ET she described was in her closet. She also drew this on paper. My daughter and I at this time didn't watch alien entertainment whatsoever and I surely didn't know at all what ETs have been described as beyond greys from entertainment media we all know about. The secondary ET she described, I put that into chatGPT and felt even more sick. She described what is described all the time in abductions and visitations. After this, she stopped inviting the aliens. It was scary to her. 365 days before that "dream" she had a nose bleed at the exact same time and I wrote it down in a 2023 calendar. I happened to have that calendar pinned in my room. Im sentimental but I have no explanation for why in the world I would have noted her nosebleed exactly a year prior. She isn't a sickly kid. No complications developmentally or physically. She kept having a nose bleeds the same Wednesday night/Thurs morning until the UAP sighting.

The morning of the sighting 12/11/24 I was fully awake, getting my daughter ready for school when I found myself lost in what I thought was just a scenario of anxiety in my head. I was lost in thought, seeing myself yelling at 2 Jehovah's witness women at a house that was not mine. An hour later I did a random DoorDash drive and the delivery was at about 9am. As I approached the home with the order, there were female JW's knocking there at my delivery and before I knew it i was telling them to get the fuck off the property. The exact scenario I saw in my mind an hour previously, went on perfectly in my physical life.

This same afternoon I saw a blue orb as I turned to shut my gate turning east. Then again turning back around heading to my front door, another blue orb. I remember having the feeling and sense of just knowing something was going to happen. Separate from the white orb that had been above my home for several weeks. I didn't know what but I knew I was not alone and to stay aware. The night went on as normal. Made dinner for my kid, prepped for the next day and put her to bed.. normal single mom stuff.

The eleventh hour of the night was approaching. I was getting a little disheartened. Several times I had went in and out of my house to look at the large desert sky and look at Orby (gave it a name). Then I was sitting there in the last hour of the day, on my couch and heard deep tone. Not within my mind but in the physical reality. It was not a helicopter sound or any typical sound. It was deep and raised my excitement but with no real anxiety. I rushed outside and there it was. Overhead. Someone with a good arm could have thrown a ball at it. The sound was completely gone. I heard nothing. The craft was dark metallic, orange glowing bursting from around it but there was no heat or light that expelled from the orange. No blinking lights, and no identifiable propulsion. Very much disk shape with volume equal in curve on both top and bottom. As it moved above me, I could clearly make out its shape, which was distinct and not comparable to drone, plane, or known aircraft. There is nothing that was commercial or even military about this craft. As it moved above me, I started to shout in a loud and urgent voice to my daughter who was asleep in her room. I wanted to make sure I was really awake and not lucid dreaming and to know I'm not crazy so I shouted out and she came to the front door. She saw it herself in the distance. Between the time she came to the front door, this craft maneuvered unlike anything I could compare it to. I knew telepathically that it was showing me its shape as it took itself upwards, exposing it’s a full circle disk. Then it went completely vertical. Heading east. This was a fully formed, structured craft flying silently and with purpose.

I do understand that I was in the Mojave and there are plenty of military bases, open desert and even a Lockheed area not too far. This was not those things as far as I can tell.

Sorry if this was way more info than you all needed. I have never made a report before or really even told this to anyone but my therapist.

Duration: 3 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Bartow, FL, USA
Location details: From the parking lot the 4 craft were observed flying from south to north.

Shape: Cone
Color: white
Estimated Size: 60 ft. long
Viewed From: Land
Direction from Viewer: I was standing due east and they flew from south to north.
Angle of Elevation: 45
Closest Distance: 15,000 ft.
Estimated Speed: A slow speed of an F-14.
Explanation: Birds - Possible


No noise, flew in side by side formation then stacked formation until disappeared.

Initially thought they were white pellicans, then as they travelled with direction, unchanged altitude, and changed formation, I thought they were the F-14 Thunderbirds because they were white. When realizing there was no sound I could not identify them. There were 4 of them, relatively small, cone shaped and appeared as white against a light blue sky with few small clouds. I caught them in my sight as they went from a one after the other formation to a linear formation so I thought they were large birds. Their direction was too precise and they changed to a linear formation and eventually into a stacked formation, which seemed very odd.

Zigzag movements. Fast.

My freind and I were heading to Vegas late night. We first spotted a light sitting still in the sky. Then a second light joined and it stood still. Then the second light went left ( we were driven towards Vegas) and it zig zagged in w formation. The unit that was standing still just disappeared. It was so bizarre. The one that was moving kept going left and it eventually vanished. By the time we got off the freeway it was to late. We were perplexed.

Location: Bartow, FL, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Lights on object, Emitted beams

A white orb of light moving South/Southwest to North/Northeast at 20:30 hours.

I was outside smoking a cigarette and looked up. A white light was moving through the sky. I did not see any flashing lights as you would see on an aircraft. It was also not a satellite it was to low and much to big. Also not a weather balloon it was moving South/Southwest to North/Northeast and the wind direction is East to West tonight. It moved at a fairly good speed but I would say a little quicker than an airplane. As it moved across the sky, I have an uninterrupted view, in the Northerly sky a plane came into view from the East and flew North. This took about the same time to fly through the smaller quadrant of sky as the light took to get all the way from South/Southwest to North/Northeast. The light was below the higher clouds as it passed over me but disappeared into the lower level clouds in the North/Northeast. It was shaped like on orb of light however every now and again it appeared to have three points of light coming off of it in the shape of a peace sign without the bottom middle leg of the sign. That may have been refraction I'm not sure.

I am a Science Teacher and have seen satellites in various different states and in Newfoundland. I have been a part of groups that went out during meteor showers. And I am familiar with aircraft my Grandfather was a Maintenance Supervisor for American Airlines and I have seen many different aircraft lights at night. Just not sure what I saw I could not identify it.

Shape: Flash


Flashing light moving in a zigzag pattern

On the morning at 04:15 of 25 May, 2016, my son and I were star gazing in our front yard. To the East of our house there was a fast moving flash of light. We both thought that it was a satellite and watched it move. We both were surprised on the brightness and the flashing frequency it had.

As it was moving in a North North West direction, we noticed the movement was in an arcing path, not a straight path. Also, the flashing was moving in a zigzag pattern from left to right. A flash on the left then a flash in a diagonal direction to the right. No sound was associated with the flashing light. Unfortunately, I have no visual evidence for this event.

I work with and on military aircraft for a living and have never seen anything with the light pattern or movement such as my son and I witnessed. I live South of China Lake Naval Air Station and the flight path of the flashing light is not in the air corridor for China Lake NAS or the Edwards AFB fast mover corridor which is North or China Lake NAS.

Big grey sky-diamond joyriding the air

A Grey Cube shaped craft (Diamond), about 50 feet tall, and wide, was flying past the above airplane level, and at completely unnatural speeds, during 9:00 am

I was about to go inside my house, and I felt the need to look in the sky, I first thought it was a plastic bag, but after seeing it fly above the clouds at speeds that no plastic bag could ever hope to go, I realised what it was, a craft around 50' tall/wide, it was basically joyriding going in directions it logically should not, but still maintaining a direction towards east.

It effected nothing, no sound was emitted, no magics; the only thing I could say it that it could have made me look at it threw "mind control", and thats a stretch.

I could never describe it as perfectly as I seen it, but I know it was a big, grey, sky-diamond, and it should not exist.

I went inside to get some binoculars but by the time I returned, it had flown completely out of sight.

Huge white orb seen falling to Earth near Barstow, Ca

I was driving South on I-15 and had just passed Barstow, CA. There were many cars on the road (Labor Day) and it was around 10pm. The Moon was to my left and behind me.

Suddenly I saw a huge, round, white light, as big as the Moon but much brighter, materialize out of nowhere in front of me to the left in the night sky. It quickly fell to the earth and disappeared.

All of the cars on the Fwy saw it when I did and people started slamming on their brakes and swerving off the road. I almost hit the car in front of me! It happened so fast I barely had time to double take and yell , "Did you see that?" to my daughter. It was awesome!

It was shaped like a skateboard from the late 80's. It had 1 light (white) in the front middle with three lights in the back kind of triangle. The three on the back were either two red one white or two white one red

Hey I saw the blue beam space craft in oct of 2008, I drew a picture of it in photoshop and have images of the same ship on the same time frame caught in a still shot on live video. It made a left turn and shot twice, the brightness of the flash illuminated up the entire inside of the craft. I am sorry I never reported this, I only thought... Hmm.... so they do exist. I have come to learn more about them. they come from the Ulosha, or Nebula behind the orions belt. they will be coming back if God calls them to. There is no blue beam, it will be all wicked. only purple and a blue at the bottom. If they shoot it in the atmosphere, the beam would split up a bit but nothing will stop it. I got images to display, please email me at [email protected] Please call me at 760 590 0840 as they have also sent other things to the earth. I got fantastic hearing.... :) blue beam technology, thanks to ya'll with the super computer all made out to destroy us in the nic! k of time. Or I'll destroy us all!

Object observed over mountain rage for several minutes before shooting strigh up and out of sight.

At 2041 Hrs. on 06/19/08, I was traveling eastbound I-40 approximately 10-12 miles east of the Barstow/Dagget Airport, when I observed a bright white pulsating light to the north. The light was what I can estimate, 3 or 4 miles above the mountain range. Believing it was landing lights on an airplane I focused back on the road. Several minutes later I looked back and the object was in the same place and I started to look for the nav lights on the wings. As the object pulsated I could clearly see a dark outlines of the object (round or oblong) and no red and green lights were seen. As I drove east on I-40 I observed the object for the next 8 minutes (11 minutes in total) up till I saw the object quickly shot straight up, the light fading out at which time the object was out of sight.

Strange Lights over Bartow, FL

While driving east on State Road 60, just as we were approaching the city of Bartow, my wife and I observed a bright light directly in front of us. I cannot say what the distance was from our location. As we watched the bright light, it began to descend and suddenly sepparated into 2 separate lights.

At first I thought that it was a firework of some sort but quickly realized that it was much too high in the sky. Almost immediately after the 2 descending lights were no longer visible, we spotted another light slowly growing brighter and brighter. About 10 seconds later there was another light and then another and then another. We saw a total of 6 lights maximum at one time. Then it seemd as if they were taking turns "turning their lights on and off" because we saw 6 of them, then 4, then 2, then 3 etc, etc. until finally approx after 3 or 4 minutes total, there was nothing.

Driving south, south-west on Interstate 15 south of Barstow, CA, my Navigation/GPS screen began malfunctioning. The screen began flickering and turning to a blue background and the GPS location symbol indicating my vehicle location froze.

Moments later we (my wife & I) noticed what we initially thought to be a "shooting star" falling directly in front of our driving direction what appeared to be approx. 1 mile away. The "falling star" light remained as bright as the planet Jupiter as seen with our naked eyes, as it was falling in the sky adjacent to Jupiter in the southern night sky.

The "falling star" was falling at a tremendous speed as we have noticed other "falling stars" in the desert. This light was traveling straight down as opposed to an angle that other "falling stars" we have previously noticed. The "falling star" went from a high falling speed from approx. 80 degees above the horizon to an immediate stop approx. 15 degrees above the horizon.

The "falling star" light remained stationary for approx. 1 min. The light began to move off to the west at a slow but contant speed, similar to the speed of an aircraft and the light began to oscillate with white, red and blue lights. Using Jupiter in the sky as a point of reference, the light turned to the west of Jupiter where it stopped.

The light then began to travel east, stopped momentarily and then traveled straight up from 15 degrees above the horizon to approx. 40 degrees above the horizon.

I have a MS degree from UCLA and previously earned my private pilot's license for single engine aircraft. I have no knowledge of any aircraft able to maneuver as I witnessed.

orange fireball, shape shifting, moves at ridiculous speed, encountered on wayt to las vegas.

I just want to describe an incident that I had seen about 2 years ago; which I saw a redish orange fireball. At first it had the diameter close to the moon and was highup. Then it dropped down at such an incredible speed.

At first my mom thought that it was some kind of light that was behing the mountains until it zipped right onto our leftside. Then it receded its shape into an ellipse thinning itself out then disappear behind the mountains. Then it would zip back up into view above the mountains.

It would constantly change shape. this went on for about 4 minutes.

Strange lights:red, blue, green, and yellow in Barstow CA.

My girlfriend and I went to visit my brother who is stationed at Fort Irwin Military Base in Barstow Ca. We reached the post around 1:15AM. My brother and I stood outside and drank some beers and the time just flew! My brother all of a sudden told me to take a look at this helicopter that must have stopped someone on the I15. But, as the time continued to go (around a half an hour 4:00 AM to 4:30 AM) the helicopter never moved. We assumed it was a police helicopter because the lights at first were only red and blue flashing lights. This was around 4:30 AM and the lights started flashing in this order, red, blue, green, and yellow very very quickly. I told him that I was going to go wake up my girlfriend so that she could prove that we were not seeing things! He woke his wife and I woke my girlfriend and at first, they thought It was Mars but mars was directly behind us. As we all starred together we noticed it started moving quickly then slowly then it appeared to get close then far, but it only stood in a certain section of the sky. At around 5:00 AM it went out like a candle light, but for whatever reason it reappeared. We were tired so we went to sleep.



NUFORC Note:

We suspect that a "twinkling" star would be the first possibility that would have to be ruled out, before we could accept that the object was a "bona fide" UFO. PD

Shape: Rectangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

There were round red and blue lights on the object., hovering beside us as I was still driving, no sound.

Me and a girlfriend were headed to Las Vegas for her birthday. When we came to highway 15 where highway 58 meets, there was a big rig truck that had tried to turn in the middle of the road and got stuck there for quite a while, covering both sides of the freeway. However, people took a chance and drove in a ditch partially under the back of the truck to get by.

As we went around the truck, not long afterwards we saw flashing red and blue round lights coming toward us. We thought we were looking at a police car at first, and I think I slowed down, or it felt like we were still driving on the opposite side of the road in slow motion when we saw it come closer right next to the driver's window, as if it were looking in the car at us.

I said, do you see what I see and she said yes. It was hovering beside us, and we looked desparately for wheels and there were none. I was trying to get away from it by speeding up, but I was still in slow motion because it stayed next to my window for a few moments. There were no other cars on the road at that point. I don't know if the cars on that side of the truck saw anything or not, it didn't bother us. It just took off and I rolled my window down and we didn't hear any noise from it. It was about the size of a Delorean car.

We were scared and told our families when we got to Las Vegas. I wondered if that truck was trying to help cover up the spaceship by holding the cars there for so long until they got enough nerve to drive in the ditch partially under the truck.

Also, is there any reports by the police that day that the truck was blocking the road? Also, I couldn't get the time in the box but it was night time around 10:00p.m.=2200 hours.

There were red and blue lights round lights coming toward us. It was the size of a small car hovering.

Me and a girlfriend went to Las Vegas for her birthday by car. As we approached the connecting freeway highway 15 from highway 58 there was a truck blocking the road because he tried to turn around and got stuck.

After several attempts of people trying to help him, cars found a way to get around. There was a ditch behind the truck, and cars tried to drive partially under the truck into the ditch. We made it, and not far up the road there were red and blue lights coming toward us. I assumed it was a police car.

When it reached us it stopped or drove backwards because I was still driving.

It all seemed like in slow motion. There were no wheels underneath, and we were looking desparately for tires. It hovered right next to my car and the drivers side as if it was looking in at us.

I said, do you see what I see and she said yes. I proceeded to try and get away and it stayed with us a short time and then took off like a light, there was no sound as I rolled down my window. Now you see it, now you don't.

We called our family to tell them when we arrived in Las Vegas in our hotel about the incident.

I was traveling on Interstate 40 at 7:00 when I saw a beautiful sunset of the desert, on vacation on the colorado river, in Needles. I noticed a small red, contrail from an airliner. I at first glance traveling 60mph, om I-40, thought how beautiful the contrail was. Then I noticed it was "staionary" and not moveing, after 15 minutes. I then, thought perhaps, it was a comet. Since I have not followed, any reports on comets like Hale/Bopp. This contrail, was, then " degradeing" yet, a new contrail was being formed. I could see clearly, a "jet" large airliner being, in slow motion, or stopped in the sky. Below that a small round, grayish "U.F.O." wa dancing, and going back and fourth, under the airliner. The airliner was stationary, burning fuel, and creating a contrail, as this UFO hovered about 7 thousand feet "under" the large liner. I noticed many people watching this in the Bartow, Daggaet(Solar Power area)and this, was 50 miles from Edwards airforce base. I clearly saw a round UFO,and this jet, with small contrail, and it was redish, with the sun, setting, and was below the hortizon, or mountains. It was "beautiful" and "spectacular", and was the most bizzar, thing I ever see. I felt it was showing off for all the cars traveling along I-40, that evening. I called the Highway Patrol in Barstow, they said they got hundreds of phone calls on this. They said it was a helicopter. I say it was a UFO, round, gray, and makeing a motion, for attention. Then after I was under it, the UFO , went away, and the "airliner" was free, to travel, to its destination.

Two white (non blinking) lights at the end of a short cigar shaped object...red light came on between them.

This occurance was on I-15 between Vegas and Los Angeles......it was West of Barstow ( I had to estimate the time). We had the top off our car and my husband said, "What's that above us?" I looked up and saw 2 lights which were traveling one behind the other...headed west/northwest....They were SO close together that I assumed they HAD to be one light at each end of a Cigar shaped object. We watched it for at LEAST 10 minutes. About 2 minutes into it....a red light Came ON in between the 2 white lights (none of the lights blinked). It stayed on for a minute or so...then went off. It turned on....then off...a couple more times. We watched it until it went behind a mountain. When we finally rounded the mountain (15 minutes or so) I saw 2 bright lights on the horizon....FAR away from each other. May have been insignificant.... As I watched ...one of the lights just went off. Strange!

Strange beam emmiting craft perform strange manuvers over California desert.

Some friends and I were driving on I-15 from LA to Vegas at a very late hour. Even though it was fairly late (around 1AM) there are always a good number of cars on the road at that time. I was driving when my friend, who was sitting in the passenger seat, pointed to a beam of light that was pointing straight down at the highway in front of us. At first I thought it was a helicopter shining a spotlight down, but later I would realize that I was wrong. The light, which was coming from what seemed to be 100-200ft from above the highway, started drifting off to the right. In 1-2 minutes, the highway turned and we realized that the light was flying directly over the highway. Just then, the beam turned off and from where it was shining from, a blue light appeared and sped away at an incredible speed over the horizon. About two seconds after the light sped off, another large bright blue light shot down from what seemed to be outer space to the area that the origional light went to. As we continued along the highway, about five miles down the road we noticed that off to our right, several miles away (in the general viscinity of where the lights earlier flew to), several blue and red balls of light were flying around each other at odd velocities and manuvering like no aircraft we had ever seen. At this point we figured we would get the best view if we got out of the car to look. The four of us stood and observed the manuvering craft for a few minutes before all but one blue one flew away over the horizon. The remaining craft, we realized, was flying towards us! All four of us began to get nervous about this strange event but we couldn't turn away. Slowly, the craft flew directly over us, silently, at an unknown altitude. This gave us the opportunity to see, by the orientation of 9 blue lights on it's leading edge that were flickering like strobe lights, that it was v shaped. It continued on at this speed until we couldn't see it anymore. We were glad a beam didn't shine on us when it passed directly over us!

Green fireball with a tail falls to earth near Barstow, CA

While driving towards barstow ca on the way to my marine corps ball ceremony which took place on 11/7/1998, I saw a green fireball shaped (light)/object fall to the earth while I drove North on the I-15 on my way to laughton, NV on 11/6/98.

It was dark and as I drove in the right hand lane I saw the object fall to earth with a green flash behind it. This occured at about 9pm or so.

There appeared to be empty fields to the right of me, no buildings or trees, just barren or farm land, I saw it come down, not like a shooting star which you observe in the sky, but close to earth, vanishing on the horizon.

Shape:


I am a 55-year-old male with no ambitions of notoriety and certainly not a prankster of any kind. I simply feel the story I have to tell should be discovered by those who study such things (in a scientific way). You see I feel it might be important because "it's different ". What I saw and the way I saw it, seems not to bear any similarity to all the other things I've ever heard about sightings in the general media. It's not a subject I study; moreover, what I know is not material. WHAT HAPPENED WAS REAL!

It happened over twenty years ago in 1977 as my son (then about 10) and I were traveling by car from Alabama to California. I'm sure I might have been tired, for I had made that 2,000 mile trip many times over the years, but never without getting tired somewhat. No, I wasn't " dreaming " or " hallucinating " or anything likes that. With the experience I had making that trip, I knew when to rest and never to push myself to such a dangerous degree of instability; remember I HAD MY SON WITH ME.

It must have been after midnight, as we were fifteen miles north of Barstow. I was driving a moderate speed of 50-55. It was one of those beautiful nights of perfect weather. The stars were bright without a single visible cloud in the sky, unlike the soon to be Los Angeles. Being more reminiscent of my birth home in Alabama, I was particularly alert with my surroundings. Enjoying it all with my driver's side window down; not knowing if I might ever see such a perfect night again. The silhouette of the far off mountain range was very visible against the sky. Even the nearer hillsides were visible with the outlines of trees and shrubbery. THEN IT HAPPENED!

To my left I noticed the frontal approach light of an airplane. Advancing from a ninety-degree angle, the light was pretty bright. I know the distance of approach lights can be very deceiving in the night sky, but this light was near. I had worked on the flight line and runway while in the Air Force and I had observed this very distinctive look many times at night. It was much the same kind of light anyone might see around an airport except this one seemed to be heading straight for us. The stars shone bright under and all around " it " as there wasn't a single cloud for reflection. " The light " was definitely airborne. I could see it was descending, as the space between “it” and the mountain range grew narrower. Was it a private plane landing at a private runway? Was it a helicopter? Is there an airport near? Where are the ground approach lights? It seemed to quietly get nearer and nearer as I could detect no sound while it continued to descend. With the relation of " it's " speed to mine plus perceived distance, whether illusion or not, " the light " appeared to be on A COLLISION COURSE WITH ME!

Not acting irrational, but with an instinct of self-preservation, I began to rapidly slow down. Glancing down at the speedometer, it was showing 20- 25 miles per hour. Looking back to my left, " the light " appeared as though it had slowed down its descent. My perception was that “the light” and I were about to reach the same place at the same time! I shifted and gave it the gas! The fuel-injected sports car I was driving was fast. As I glanced down again, I saw I was doing 80. When I looked back at " the Light ", I was shocked. " The Light " had sped up! Definitely on the same collision course as if it was
"locked-in" or using me in some way. In the next moment, "the light" dropped below the outline of the horizon and reached ground zero. In the rough terrain approximately fifty yards from me, just over the other side of the road, " the Light " made a ninety degree left turn while traveling exactly 80 miles per hour. It was now moving parallel to me at the exact same speed. " The light " illuminated forward no more than about twenty feet, while lighting up the closest shrubbery in front of the it. There was now the outline of an object behind "the Light ". The rounded cigar shaped object could have been anywhere from twenty to fifty feet in height, for I could not determine how far the terrain might dip below the adjoining roadside. There were six to eight small square windows visible down the near side with even spacing. Each window had an off-white lightning, much the same as you might see from your own house while outside at night. Toward the front of the craft, there were two obstruction type lights, one red and one blue/green. I was unable to see any outline of the rear of the craft; but what I could see, covered about fifty linear feet. The object now made a distinctive sound like I've heard before. It was the sound of a turbine. A turbine and jet engine may sound similar to some but as I have been around both many times, there is a distinct difference. After it traveled along side of me about a half mile, it began to slow. It appeared to be stopping as I KEPT DOING 80!

After traveling another five miles down the road, I felt I must have been nearing the outskirts of Barstow. I could see an industrial plant or factory up ahead. The lit blaze of a tower or smokestack was very evident yet over a mile away. It looked no different than what most people may have seen around such factories. I believe I've heard it referred to as a" Burn-off ". As I drove nearer, I could see there was more than one stack or tower. Behind one blaze was another blaze. Closer to the blazes it started to become apparent that something seemed strange. There were no stacks or towers beneath the blazes. The stars and sky were the only things between the blazes and the hillside. Even closer now, the blazes began to take on a definite shape. They were round; they were perfectly round, like " fireballs ". After arriving parallel to the " fireballs ". I decided to stop and observe. There was a convenient clearing to the right of the road. The clearing was large enough to allow me to back in and observe comfortably. Seemingly five hundred yards or so off the road and perhaps one to two hundred yards above the ground, still shining and flickering above the horizon outline with stars beneath them, were three " fireballs " of the same diameter, at equal spacing from each other, appearing to be of equal distance from the ground. One would extinguish or go out and then come back on. Then another would do the same, but with no apparent pattern to length of time for staying off or on; never knowing which one would one would go out next. Could these be flares of some kind? Was this some kind of military exercise? After all, some kind of craft just landed back up the road. But what kind of craft could make a ninety-degree turn at 80 miles per hour? Especially not straight at someone like that thing did to me, right? We could have been killed! The strangest thing about these " fireballs " to me was the way they would always be in the same place when they came back on. Never changing in height above the ground or distance apart, they always maintained the same diameter and perfect round shape. They certainly couldn't be swamp gas. They had to be controlled by an intelligence of some kind. What kind of technology would it take to control these things the way THEY WERE BEING CONTROLLED?

After observing almost an hour, I believed I wasn't going to see anything any different. Leaving the strange lights, I drove on to our destination without further incidents, except for one thought----right before seeing " the light ", I remember seeing the headlights of another automobile in my rearview mirror about three-quarters of a mile behind me. From then until I stopped to observe the " fireballs ", I saw no turn-off on that road. You know, that car never did catch up to me. . . . .

Bright lights

It was late and my parents were out so us kids snuck out to the play ground area.

We were on the playground structure when a low bright light few over. Followed by another a second or two then followed by a small red light. It was so bright that lit up the whole playground as if it was daylight. There was no sound only a feeling of presence.

Maybe a minute or so later we heard about two jets fly over but could not see them. At the time we dismiss the incident as secret test that were being conducted at the local Air Force base near by.

It wasn’t until Close Encounters of the Third Kind was released that I realized it was more then test.

Giant saucer crash in the mountains between Baker and Barstow, California.

Driving southbound Hwy 15 approx. 15-20 south of Baker, CA, I was driving. Husband/passenger was asleep. One vehicle behind me. No other traffic. Clear night, lots of stars. Saw a bright bluish "star" about 50-degree angle directly ahead in the night sky, which didn't twinkle and appeared to be getting larger. Within approx. 30 seconds, it had gotten as large as a "dime" and was getting larger and lower and glowing a bluish color. I couldn't figure out what it was. Within another 5 to 10 seconds it had gotten approx. the size of a dinner plate and appeared to be descending and coming straight at me even though it was still approx. 15 degrees up. I started yelling at my husband to wake up, as I was terrified. Within a couple of seconds it was directly in front of me at approx. 1000 ft. elevation and was enormous. It extended beyond both sides of the highway by at least 100 feet and completely silent. I could see it was round and flat, appeared metallic and was glowing a bright bluish color. I started screaming. It lit up the road like bluish daylight. It passed slightly to my right over a ridge of low mountains and crashed. There was a huge bluish light and the impact lifted my car off the road and over into the next lane, almost off the road. I pulled over, and the guy behind me pulled over, and we got out and tried to see if we could see anything, but all you could see was this huge bluish glow. The guy was just as shocked as I was. My husband had only seen it when it was right on top of us. We (both cars) drove into Barstow and went to the Highway Patrol and told them what we had seen. They said they hadn't heard about anything crashing, but they would look into it. My husband drove home because I was too shaky to drive. I called the CHP the next day. They said they were "still checking it out." I called CalTech to see if the crash had registered anything, and they said they had nothing registering at that time, but they would look into it. I called Edwards Air Force Base, and they sai! d that a small plane had crashed into the mountains, but they had no info and said to call the FAA. I called FAA and they said they didn't know about any plane crash. There was nothing on the news. I told people about it, but nobody had heard anything. Very bizarre.
