My boyfriend and I were leaving his house at around 8 o’clock. We stopped at the end of his court when we all the sudden saw this white bright object go across the sky in front of us, it picked up speed and turned green as it started going fast and downhill. It later disappeared and the light poles from where the object passed through started flickering on and off.

I later was dropped off and my sister told me that before I got there, my dog kept going all crazy and barking up at the sky.

BLUE LIGHTS FORM TRIANGLE OVER CENTRAL CALIFORNIA.

8/16/2013, ceres california, 23:32 , there was little wind or cloud cover out this night it was a nice 76 degrees no clouds as far as my eye can see i had stepped out of my home to have a smoke, when i noticed a large blue light moving quickly threw the sky west to east or left to right from my eye point, as i looked and followed the light with my eyes i figured it was one of those theater lights they put on like in lasvegas that shine up to the sky, its now i noticed that light had no beam coming from the earth up wards as a spotlight would, the light came to a sudden stop and started to flash very quickly the one light instantly broke into 3 which now formed a very large triangle the lights being the 3 points of the triangle they started to rotate almost blinking in sync to appear to be rotating , at this point im almost scared and want to run inside but all i could do was look with awe, the triangle distance between the points i would say was over a 100 f! t per point very large yet i could see no structure of a ship only the lighted points but it did block out the stars behind it, as the lights on the outer continued to rotate they began doing so much faster almost as if my eye was seeing it after the fact as if it were so fast it had did 60 passes to my eyes only seeing one if you can understand that, all of a sudden one of the lights shot light into the center of the is triangle and it became 3 lights moving slower but in a circular motion in the center of this triangle, by this point im about to shit my pants, now im 29 a male and athletic but its as if this thing made me not be able to move it could have just been fear but its as if my mind knew what was going on but my muscles just couldn't work, at this point i noticed my neibor across the street coming out of his home yelling what the FUCK rather loud, i could see they were looking oowing and aweing as well , the object continued to just spin its lights, now again im ! not sure if the lights where spinning or if they were blinking! so fast it appeared to spin, im not sure how to explain i would say almost strobe light like but in sync with each other, all of this is happened in a matter of i would say 4 mins, as i continued to stare all of the lights slowly began to form one l light as if they were returning to the center until all the lights 6 in all i think were in the center and now just one like the original one that caught my eye, again no beam was seen going to this object or from it nor was there a beam of light coming down ward it was if this perfect blue circle was just there and the circle was large ,as it became one light it flickered and began to flicker even faster at this time i noticed that i could see not clouds but almost a smoke a exhaust of some sort it looked like very thick smog clouds or what youd see coming out of a trains stack but white it was too thick to be cloud there was no other clouds in the sky and no way these clouds just appeard out of thin air, what also is a mind fucker to! me is the smoke cloud thing looked like hiroshima adom bombing mushroom cloud type shaped only upside down , the flickering light in the center all of a sudden just whent out and darkness again took over the sky, i could no longer see the smokey cloud or any lights what i could see now was stars that when the object was there i couldnt see, i looked at my clock it was now 23:37 the object was gone, now i live in a small town in central california im not a ufo hunter avid believer or of any thing like that,i live on a normal city block in a residential area , i have to ask my self if it was a ufo why was it here of all places in broad daylight, if its military why does it have lights that makes no sense to me as well for ufo , dont you think theyd cut the lights why would they want to stay hidden but be seen, if it was military why are they flying over our homes?, this thing was so massive if it were military it would be like a air base of some sort? the lights were ver! y blue in color to compare i would say they looked just like H! ID headl ights on cars very distinct blue hue in perfect circles id say each circle was maybe 6-10 feet around very large, i take into consideration what it were flashlights i say ok then why i see no beam going up ward and how can they blink and spin so perfect in sync youd have to have more then one person controlling all the flashlights by hand at once perfectly and again why would any one do this for 5 mins then stop, it makes no sence to me ither way i googled blue lights in california sky in google news and seen alot of simular stories, i also found this web sight, you can take my experience as you will, i also was not high or drunk i am of perfect mental capacity i know i was not hallucinating i was in a normal state of mind, you can say this guy made it up or you can belive what i say its not going to change what i seen, i also could not here any sounds of motor noise or engine it was silent

Floating fireball dripping what seemed like molten metal.

Floating fireball, orange and red, dripping straight down molten like red material every 30 seconds or so. Didn't seem large, maybe size of a car dripping approximately basketball sized "drops". The drops seemed to leave a long straight line behind them, like a trail or tether. Shrank after dropping two in a row and dissapeared without moving. Would like to add that it was close to highway and I pulled over so hopefully someone else spotted it, because I left my vehicle and may have drawn attention.

Fireballs seen from Ceres, California

We were driving West on Whitmore Ave. in Ceres, California. I don't remember which night it was, but it was near the 12th of January. We were just starting our incline as we were starting to cross the overpass and we saw a three flashes of light. Each flash of light looked like a small orange fireball and they appeared and disappeared in three distinct spots. It was almost as if someone had lit something on fire and put it out really quickly and it was too high in the sky to be a firework.

My partner who was driving asked if I had seen what he just did. I confirmed with him that I did. We entered the freeway and our view was blocked by trees. We saw a few more flashes behind the trees and after the trees cleared, we saw one more of the objects flash and disappear.

I watched for more on the rest of the drive home and I did not see anything after that.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 37813
Occurred: 2004-03-05 20:45 Local
Reported: 2004-06-27 00:19 Pacific
Duration: 1 + minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Ceres, CA, USA

Shape: Other
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

I saw a Huey heliocopter trailing a very large non light emiiting object at night at low elevation and low speed.

A Huey heliocopter was making passes from SW to NE and NE to SW back and forth and trending in a southerly direction as a farmer would spray or plough a field. the direction between the parrallel rows I estimated to be about one and one quarter mile.

The heliocopter caught my attention when he made an easterly pass to the north of my position, because he was flying way too low to be in compliance with FAA rules and he was moving very slowly. About 15 minutes later the helicopter returned on its return pass with a southwesterly heading. It was hard to make a visual sighting of the heliocopter at first because of his extremely low flight elevation. I could hear the helicopter for a couple of minutes before I could see him. Now keep in mind that at the time I was busy unloading my van at my business partners/friends house and I wasn't really focusing all of my attention on the heliocopter. I have seen many helicopters many times and they are no big deal to me. The reason I was paying attention to this one was because I was curious about the incredibly low elevation it was flying at and I wanted to see if it was private or military. When it finally came into view at a distance of about 950-1100 yards, something caught my eye in front of it. I blinked because I didn't really see anything other than the heliocopter at first glance but as it got closer, maybe 800 yards away, I suddenly realized what had caught my attention. The sky was very bright that night and as I looked to the north towards the town of Ceres at low angles you could easily see the outlines of utility poles because they were very dark against a light sky that was glowing orange. What had caught my attention was the light of stars being blocked out by an object that was proceeding immediately in front of the Heliocopter. I was awestruck as the object and the helicopter passed overhead about 200 yards to my north and at an elevation of no more than 100 yards, probably lower. At the closeest approach I could easily see that outline of this craft or object as it was completely and totally black. It was immense in size it must have been 8 to ten times as long as the Huey helicopter that was following it. I would estimate that the speed was no more than 35 miles per hours. The shape of the craft was clean and aerodynamic at the leading edge, perhaps like the front of a jet but fatter or I should say it widened at a greater angle than any aircraft I had ever seen. About 100 feet or more back from the leading edge the objects shape got very complicated. There was a tremnedous appendage that was somewhat akin to a giant irregular keel that hung down towards the ground and was probably no more than 150 feet above the ground. The sides and top of the rear half of the object had a large number of what appeard to be angular protuberances of many different shapes sticking out from the craft. I must reiterate that the craft emitted absolutely no light whatsoever and I could only see it by its outline against a lighter sky. Needless to say I was rather excited and I yelled loudly several times for my friend Tom Copeland to come out of his house quickly. By the time he did it was too late for him see much of anything except for the departing helicopter. The object seemed to either adsorb light or it had an albedo of zero. This was brought home by the fact that the Huey was shining a tremendously bright light at the object. Either the heliocopter was making small side to side movements or they were moving the light from side to side. When the light didn't intercept the object, you could see its beam for over a half mile in the air. When the light did intercept the object it was extinguished at the point of contact. You could see nothing on the surface of the object nor was any light reflected. There was a sound I heard that I don't know the source of that can be described as something like the ping sound that a sonar unit makes on a submarine. I don't know if it emanated from the object or the Huey. I have thought about the way the heliocopter was acting and I have come up with a couple of ideas. Maybe the flight crew was moving the spotlight back and forth because they couldn't really see the object either and this helped them to "see" it by watching the beam of light extinguis! h just as I was watching it. I don't know if they were picking it up on their onboard radar or not and perhaps they were afraid of running into it. This constitutes the bulk of my sighting information.

Illuminated upside down bread pan like moving, silent object.

500' overcast, lite dizzle, no noise , looked like an upside down bread baking pan with bright tiny lights, randomly located over the top 2/3rds of the vessle- white light very much look like the tiny decorative lights hung out at Christmas. I was in the car when it appeared through windshield, partner standing out side the passenger door, answered "it is!", when I said, look! a UFO! I had quicly wet my finger and touched window as to length and width and height. being a commercial pilot, I checked the overcast height later and by perspective from finger marks drew out approximate size : length of about 3 RR box cars width of 4 and height of 2. taper from bottom to top was about 10 - 15 degrees. I estimated the velocity to between 150 to 200 MPH. The craft was 'scud-running' as we pilot say. Being in the 'scud' any view of the surface color was diminished other than to say 'cast iron'like /dark/ dull -finish The lights did not reflect from the vessile's sid! e or tail end. For such a fair size,as it headed north north-west, the total silence was unique especially with the wet atmosphere which carried any sound in an enhanced manner

Blue Streak with UFO Trailing in Ceres, California

Untill yesterday, I was pretty skeptical as to the existence of extraterestrial life on among the heavens; last night changed my whole perspective.And I'd swear on the bible to you, that this is 100% true. It was myself(((name deleted))), My brothers ((two names deleted)), and our friend ((name deleted)). We had just paid to get into the Ceres Drive-in in Cere's, CA. Anyways, we were at like the first bend turn to get to the screen we were about to watch our movie on, when David says, "dood, there's something in the sky up there." At that point everyone else in the car wanted to see what he was talking about so I ducked my head from the back seat so i could look out the front window and what I saw i truly can not justify. Picture if you can a summer day just coming to a head in the evening, the sun was just down, and the sky was a deep, but still lit, baby blue. Above and to the far right of our screen there was (now this was totally a visual experience) this blueish-neon streak in the sky, something I have never seen before and you could tell it was totally foreign to the sky...it was like something from a sci-fi movie, like special effects. it was about 3 inches in length in the sky, and it was such a clear night, it looked close. Now just after this streak there was a dusty trail of smoke starting from the small end of what would look like a stretched tear drop, but of smoke, and directly in the end of it was a bright white light, that seemed straining, searching almost through that fog/smoke, kinda like a smake crawls, not exactly in a straight line. Now I couldn't make out any shape of what the "light-emitting thing" might have even looked like, because it was surrounded almost entirely by that damn smoke. My brother ken said he saw lights around the light, but I couldn't say because I didn't concentrate on the light..i was too busy trying to make some logical excuse for the neon blue streak in our sky.About an hour later, into out movie, i was still checking out the window to watch that streak and see if it had dissapeared, b! ut it di dn't, it took a long time. Then i noticed off to the right sky there were about 7 planes, all in in close formation, with their little flashing lights, all coming what seemed towards us. I've never seen that many planes flying that close, such a small amount of sky, i don't know if they had anything to do with what we saw, but i have a feeling they did. All we could all say was, "what the hell is that??" It was shocking, because i've never seen anything like that before, and it kind of brought a sense of reality crashing in rather suddenly. Anyways, i'm not sure how long it may have been there before we originally noticed it, but I don't think verly long. And after I first spotted it after david pointed it out, if i had to give a time that it was in the sky, i'd say maybe a quick 6-8 seconds...maybe less. It was going in a more or less straight course, then like I said maybe 6 or 8 or seconds into it, this thing just vanished into thin air. The smoke was still there, and so was the blue streak. The smoke evaporated within a few minutes, but the strange blue streak in the sky, stayed for at least an hour. And we were not the only ones to see this thing, there were people everywhere; we were in a drive-in movie lot! people were standing outside their cars pointing in the sky, talking on their cell phones. it was a very strange thing, and I've never seen anything like that around here, or even heard of anything like that. That's why I know it wasn't right, something was definitely there, and many people were witness to it. I haven't heard any local news yet, or read any articles, but it did just happen yesterday, i checked online at the modesto bee, (a local paper) but there is nothing, and there is no Cere's paper online. so i don't know if anyone reported this yet, but I can garauntee someone will besides me. What I saw was in my mind alien; very unidentified and rather alarming. I haven't told anyone about it except my mom, this was my best idea to try to spread the news about what I saw, and to let othe! rs out t here know who might be skeptics, so was i, but this was as real as it gets. and i to tell you the truth I wish i hadn't seen it, i wish I could still believe that things like this are only fantasy, or made up stories, but I can't. I saw it and so did a lot of other people.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 107646
Occurred: 1988-08-15 22:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2014-03-05 13:20 Pacific
Duration: 15 minutes
No of observers: 3

Location: Ceres, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Emitted beams

Five small triangular craft hovering then moving slowly above Ceres, CA.

While walking south on Richland Ave toward Hatch Rd, I observed 5 small objects hovering motionless over the downtown area of Ceres, CA. This would be approximately south of me bordering US 99. They remained in this position for approximately 10 minutes.

As I neared Hatch Road the objects began to move toward me and were directly overhead just before I reached the intersection. A young male and female in a car pulled over and the young man got out and asked me what they were. We watched them for a few minutes as they continued north and out of sight.

My estimation of their speed was 15 mph and the height was about 100 feet. They were flying in formation and I could hear no noise from them until they were directly overhead when I could hear an extremely faint whooshing sound. The objects were small, perhaps the size of a hang glider and triangular in shape. They each had a small white spotlight on the lead corner shining straight out like a headlight.

A few minutes later when I reached home I called the tower at the Modesto airport to see if they had observed these craft as it was only a short distance away. They reported not seeing it.
