For multiple nights on clear nights I am able to observe to the west what appears to be a floating pyramid with just the outside edges lit up. I am well aware of star link and it is not that. Star leak does appear in our skies I am well aware of it like I just said. As far as the second witness she is an elderly woman that lives in the same building that I am temporarily living in that I talked to on occasion when downstairs having a cigarette. She seems very with it and strong mentally. I forgot to mention that I can see the pyramid moving up down left right I'm diagonally zip over here zip over there although my field of view it is only about an inch at a time but what confuses me is If this was a satellite it was just drift across the sky If it was a Celestial object it wouldnt appear in the same part of the sky every day for as long as I've seen it in the same spot. I also have to say that I am a seasoned researcher into the UFO phenomenon. My last name ! has military legacy in the Air Force through my father and His brother. My father was in the Air Force So it was his brother but he went on into the intelligence community after. I am told he's not allowed to answer Russia but I don't want to say anymore on that subject out of respect 4 MI uncle.

Fleet of 39+ Flying White Dot's

I Woke up at 4:45 am, grabbed my coffee then went outside to smoke.

I look at the stars in the sky.

Tonight I saw a Fleet of Flying White Dot's traveling East.

I wasn't prepared to stay out in the Morning Cold.

I watched quite a few passing overhead before I thought about Counting them.

I counted 39 of them before I got too Cold to stay out any longer.

This is not the First time I've seen these Flying over my house in the Early AM Hour's.

Large white ball of light moving silently over Clackamas County, OR.

I live in the outskirts of town in the country.

Last night, while taking out the garbage at around 9 pm, I was looking at the constellation Triangulum, when I noticed a bright white light right above me (my zenith). It proceeded to move across the sky silently. But was larger than a planet or plane. No blinking lights. I filmed it on my cell phone.

As I was filming it a plane comes into view so you can clearly see what a plane looks like and then there is this giant white ball of light just slowly moving across the night sky. It was larger than the plane when the plane finally flew in front of it, blocking out the light for a split second.

Before the large object was noticed above me, I saw several little tiny balls of light (think similar to a satellites) moving in different directions, all coming from the constellation of Triangulum. The white ball of light only started moving, once I noticed it above me. This is not the first sighting I have had, but the first! one that I have been able to film. I am unable to upload the video as the file size is too large.

A rectangular object of light, very small and fast captured on video.

A light flashes down with rainbows in a video my mom took of a bird. After a second or two of this, next in the video a small rectangular or double cigar haled object goes across the screen in three frames. The video captures at 16fps so the object blurs across the screen. I made stills to capture the object as it is too difficult to see if you watch the whole video.

2 amber lights over field outside of Canby, Oregon.

9-15-16

On the evening of September 15th, 2016, at around 10:05 P.M., I was driving east on Arndt Rd. towards Canby, Oregon, through a stretch of open farmland, where I noticed two glowing yellowish amber colored balls of light hovering over a field to the right hand side of the road.

Both of them where close to one another with no flashing lights as a normal aircraft would have and they were mostly stationary. I could not make out a specific object just the round balls of glowing light. Each of them where larger and much closer than stars yet not nearly as large as the moon and very low on the horizon just over the field in the distance. They appeared to be moving slightly from side to side to side irregularly not in sync with one another.

I observed the balls of light as I drove past the field for approximately two minutes and proceeded on to Canby. The sky was mostly clear with few clouds.

About myself. I’m a male, 23 years old, single. I spend a decent amount of time outdoors, fishing and camping. I worked as a flagger and during grounds keeping and landscape maintenance. I have never seen anything like this before.

Glowing, pulsing orb seen on a rural road in early evening. Alternated colors. Rose into the air and flew away, leaving a trail.

I was driving home on a rural road in the early evening and noticed a glowing orb floating roughly 150 feet in the air. When I drove nearer, my radio cut out. It was hard to tell the exact size of the object, but I would say it was between 30 and 50 feet in diameter. It alternated between orange, yellow, and white. It appeared to be pulsing.

I pulled over and continued to watch. As I did so, it began moving lazily from side-to-side. Then, it rose slowly higher into the air until it was about 300 feet above the ground. It flew away and disappeared beyond the treeline, leaving a short, hazy trail behind it.

The entire incident took place in roughly a minute and a half.

I did not see it anymore after that.

Location: Canby, OR, USA

Shape: Orb


Three amber orbs or spheres.

At 21:23 on Saturday, 9/14/13, a friend of mine and I saw three bright orbs in the sky. We were looking SSW from my front porch in Canby, Oregon. They were about the size of very large stars. All were the same size, amber in color and steady – no blinking or flashing.

The lowest was about 20˚ above the horizon and appeared to be moving toward us and descending like a plane approaching for landing. Above it and about 2˚ to the left and at approximately 50˚ above the horizon was the second orb. It was completely motionless. Directly above it was the third orb at approximately 65˚ over the horizon. It was also motionless.

After watching them for about three minutes, the highest orb made a steep and rapid ascent away from us and quickly went out of sight. Immediately the second orb did exactly the same thing and disappeared at the same point.

The lowest orb that appeared to be moving toward us in a descent like a landing aircraft instantly headed the opposite direction away from us. It made a steep and rapid ascent using the same path as the previous two orbs. However, on its ascent it appeared to make a few corkscrew or wiggling movements on its otherwise straight ascent. It disappeared at the same point as the others.

It was a mostly clear and moonlit night with some areas of haze. I don’t know if they flew out of sight or if they became obscured in a patch of haze.

Their size and form are difficult to describe. They were about twice as large as Venus (although not nearly as bright) on a near pass. However, they were too small to be able to discern any form other than spherical. The amber lights did not shimmer, blink, flash nor gain or lose intensity. They weren’t brilliant or faint – they were about a medium intensity. They were all exactly the same size except that the lowest increased slightly in size as it approached and then all three decreased in size as they ascended and disappeared.

Silver/chrome round object paralleled my bus for about three minutes.

On the morning of December 5th, I got on my school bus and sat toward the back on the starboard side, facing the other side of the bus, looking out the window. Riding across a long stretch of road, I was looking at some early morning stars. However, I realized there was only one star, and it wasn't before long I realized that it wasn't a star. It was an object which was reflecting the sun, above the valley.

I noticed that this object was not far away, paralleling the bus. I noticed two white lights on the lower half of the object. When the bus came to a stop, to pick up another student, I was shocked about what I had seen. I thought the object would keep coasting along, but, it stopped along with the bus, and began to merge forward, toward the bus. When the bus picked up again, the object stopped moving toward the bus, and continued to parallel it.

his went on for about three minutes, and because no one else seemed to notice the object, I kept to myself. I made an attempt to get a picture of it with the camera on my phone, (a two Megapixel camera, built in) but this bright object failed to show up on my screen, or in snapshots.

Later on the bus ride I had noticed more lights. But I realized that these were street lights or building lights behind me. So I made an attempt to debunk what I saw earlier, but I had no such luck. These lights not only reflected and moved the opposite way of the bus, they were too low of a reflection on the window. Anything higher would have been blocked out by the bus roof, or the window sills.

Again the object before had distinct two lights on its lower half, and was chrome/metallic.

Two white lights traveling north at a highe rate of speed, hovering =, then continuing north

Driving north out of Canby Oregon two bright white lights appeard overhead in the front window of our van. They were traveling north. The lights were bright white, they did not change color. They were approximately 3-5 miles appart on the same course and the same speed. At one point the right hand craft stopped and then the left hand craft stopped. They remained in this position about 1 and 1/2 minutes then continued at a fast rate of speed to the north. They slid apart for a while then re joined to the same distance as before. The craft continued untill out of sight.

Small white light in the sky exhibited extreme speed and maneuvers

At the above listed time and date, I was watering a logging road south of Canby, California. I had just finished watering a stretch of the logging road and had returned to the Pit River Bridge near the intersection of County Road 175 and Centerville Road. I was looking in the northwest sky when I noticed a small bright light moving at a very rapid rate across the sky traveling east. As I watched the light it slowed to a stop several times, and then it would accelerate very rapidly. As it reached its fasted observed speed, it would suddenly change direction 180 degrees with out slowing down. I observed the light perform this maneuver three times before is sped away and disappeared in the eastern sky. The duration of the observation was approximately two minutes. The object consisted of only one white light. No other lights were observed on or about the object.

i saw bright light come out of clouds, 2 aircraft came from behind and appeared to shot at the light, light went back into the clouds

I was traveling west on Knights Bridge Road. Day was cloudy but dry. I saw an extremly bright light drop out of the clouds. The object had no shape, but the light was extremly brite. The object flew from from the southwest to the northeast and moved at a fairly nornal speed. The object flew below the clouds for approx 5 seconds, when two aircraft came out of the clouds and took up a position about 1 mile behind the light. They flew along for about 3 seconds when what appeared to be a missle came off the wing of one of the aircraft and came toward the light. The missle covered about half the distance betwen the light and the aircraft, when the light picked up speed and flew back into the clouds. The missle followed the light into the clouds, the aircraft split up, one went right, one left and both flew back into the clouds and out of sight.

Triangular formation, pinpoints of white light, sighted in the western sky.

I was outside my home, looking at the stars emerging from twilight, when as I focussed on the evening star to the west at about twenty degrees above the horizon, I noticed movement from just below it. I was able to make out three pinpoints of light in a triangle formation about the size of a quarter held at arm's length. This formation seemed to be dimming out at times, as though covered by a fuzzy darkness that would occlude up to two of the lights in the triangle. I followed the object with my eyes while it moved left, then diagonally upward to the right, then left again, continueing toward Orion's belt, where I stopped watching to go and get my roommate, when we returned to the front yard, I could no longer spot the object(s). This observation took about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, beginning at about 7:55 pm PDT, 09/27/99.

About 4 weeks apart, my husband and I discovered round marks on our bodies after waking. No known cause is discernable. His has disappeared, but mine is still obvious, although the skin is peeling.

In the middle of July, 1998, I noticed a small circular mark on my husband's right shoulder. He had no idea what it was or where it came from. I joked that it must've been the aliens! He said it didn't itch, burn, or hurt, and it went away in about a week. On August 10, 1998, I awoke with a mark exactly like his on my left breast. I remember waking up after feeling a pinch at 2 a.m. I was not wearing anything that could make such a perfect mark, nor was there anything in our bed that could've made it. Before we had gone to bed that night, I joked to my husband that we should be on the lookout for aliens! I still have the mark (doesn't itch, spread, burn or hurt) but it is now peeling like a sunburn. I have had many encounters in my life, but this is one that I have no remembrance of!
