Something very bright coming down the sky then a big flash and it instantaneously fell and there was a streak of “smoke”.

Driving north on highway 41 towards Yosemite there was a bright light going down the sky and in an instant there was a huge bright light and it suddenly fell straight down, with no question watching the faint cloud “line” of smoke or dust of whatever it may be get larger the longer I drive, and checking the internet the next day, nothing. Nothing to be said or heard or findings or any remnants of a “space debris”.

UFO Sighting on the way up to the mountains on a road trip with family

This photo is not a fake or altered....I took this photo on a road trip to the mountains...with ((husband's name deleted)) & the kids....we were with 3 kids in the back seat...as I was taking photos...I saw one silver grey disk hoovering in the clouds......so I took a photo of it with my cell phone.

At that moment...I turned around to check on the kids, who were fussing...and when I turned around to take another photo of the disk...IT WAS GONE!...just that fast.

I don't know how to do any altering of photos.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 5785
Occurred: 1999-02-27 21:30 Local
Reported: 1999-03-03 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Coarsegold, CA, USA

Shape: Other


Two stars in west sky about 30 degrees above horison were moving back and forth. Then I saw only one. It was moving in a strange way up and down and then up and down. I noticed them because I was looking at some strange contrails in the sky on my way home that night. They were very strange. The contrails were at night lit up by the full moon. They were also very wide, low to the horison, and crisscrossed in loops, mt least 4 or more that I could see. Then the contrails got very wide and stayed in the sky a longer time than usual. Then the clear sky became full of many small clouds. Just filled the sky. Where did they come from I don't know. When the moonlight hit them, they looked different, like water looks when it shines on water with oil in it.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 18260
Occurred: 1998-08-13 22:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2001-07-01 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 5 min.
No of observers: 2

Location: Coarsegold, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Emitted beams

My husband and I spotted a silent craft with white lights in the shape of a triangle and one red light on the top center.

My husband and I were in my parents jacuzzi when we spotted 4 white lights in the shape of a triangle w/1 red light at the top center of the craft. It was silently coming in our direction from the North East. As it approached us it hovered over us with no noise. It then quickly shined a red spot light on us and then proceeded to travel South West. The thing we thought was strange was that we were in the jacuzzi with no lights on and no lights on the patio either. We were both scared and totally speechless. We wanted to run in the house but we were like deer caught in headlights.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 32353
Occurred: 1975-07-01 09:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2003-10-18 06:14 Pacific
Duration: 12 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Coarsegold, CA, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aircraft nearby

Small white light pursuing large green disc or ball.

Large round disk or ball 20 degrees above the southern horizon. Very decernable green but not a harsh green, traveling horizontally in a straight line to the west and followed by a much smaller craft that was a harsh white light. I thought the white lit craft might be a jet in pursuit. The green disc, or ball, was pulling away fron the white craft at about three times the speed of the white craft. They remained in sight for approx 12 seconds. I would estimate they were 3 to 5 miles from my location. Objects were too far away to hear any sound.
