I was standing on my patio and saw a white circular object in the sky. It looked like it was shaking like jello but didn't move

The circular object looked like it was shaking. It was white, blue, green, yellow, purple, red. I saw the color and shape change when I paused the video and took screen shots. I went upstairs to get my binoculars and it was gone when I got back. I recorded it for 42 seconds.

Hovering ufo started to move, and then transformed into a plane.

Clearly a UFO, 3 dots in a line with a faint outline of standard UFO shape. Hovering in the same spot for about a minute, then started moving in one direction, switched directions, and transformed into a plane.

I couldn't believe it.

((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS))

Honestly, I still do not believe it to be a plane, based on the way it moved. It was clearly stationary for about a minute before it headed towards the moon, stopped, and went the other way. Also, the only air ports around here house small personal planes.

Thank you for responding. I do appreciate it!

((END ADDENDUM))




NUFORC Note:

We suspect that the object was a C-17 military transport a/c. We just witnessed a C-17 in the night sky on the night of July 21, 2016, and noted that it had three landing lights, one in the center, and two toward the tips of the wings. PD

30-40 lights moving south to north and silent.

Saw lights in formation. Silent and some moved faster than others. It was one after another. Friends said they were Chinese lanterns but the way they moved, the moved pretty fast.

I'm a private pilot and have never seen anything like it.

Moved from the south to north then turned slightly east. The lights were orange, red and blue. Brighter than aircraft.

We suspect a nighttime sighting, and have amended the time above. PD

Shape: Disk
Characteristics: Lights on object

2 green lights, 2 red lights; one object.

Was driving home alone from boyfriend's house and as I approached the stop light at 113 where there's that creepy bar and the Hess/Dunkin Donuts I looked up and saw an object in the sky.

I put my window down and got a closer look I could not figure put if it was close to me and just really small or if it was large and far away. My perception was skewed. Also, I tried to take a picture with my phone and it just said "photo cannot open." I popped my head back in the car window to put my phone back in my purse and get another look at the object but when I looked again it was gone.

I could not decipher what the actual shape of the craft was as it was completely dark out but it had 4 lights in a diamond formation. (My best guess was it was saucer shaped"

I tried to rationally figure out what it was but I keep circling back to extraterrestrial.

Spot light in sky

Was outside helping a friend load his furnace, and happened to look up. Minimal clouds, I could see stars.

Could not help notice what looked like light coming through the clouds as if the moon was behind them, yet that was not where the moon was. Almost looked like there was a powerful spot light from the ground hitting that area of the sky.

A friend that was located about 5 miles away had called, and I told him what we were seeing and he then went outside and could see it as well, 5 miles away.

It was very strange, considering I am a pilot, have been staring at the sky for 40 years and never seen anything quite like it. Just wanted to report it.

Shape: Light


White dot of light traveled across the sky, very fast, then shot away.

One dot of white light (non blinking) traveled across the sky at a fast clip. From northwest to southeast in a minute maybe? It seemed as high as a star, but travelled too fast to be a satellite. It did not burnout as a shooting star would in just a few inches. If I held my arms up in a "V" shape, (like the "Y" in the YMCA dance) that's how far across the sky it travelled. My family of 4 saw it and a family of 6 up the street saw it too. When it disappeared it seemed as if it "blipped out" by moving further up and and away into the atmosphere. It was not a plane, shooting star, planet or satellite. I have never seen anything like that before in the sky.

Location: Collegeville, CA, USA

Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object, Landed

Three Orange Lights at ground level, rising into night sky.

Date 05/01/2013 Time 0400 Location: San Joaquin County, California Observer: 48 year old male, electronics tech, full time employment. Employed by same electronic security company for 27 years. No illicit or prescription drugs. No alcohol. Non-smoker. Married, 23 years. One child. Excellent health. Wears contact lenses.

Description of environment: Flat, level farmland with orchards. Mostly stonefruit and nuts. Trees typically about 30 feet in height. Few structures. No streetlights, or other ambient lighting. No buildings taller than the occasional two storey house. No other vehicles on the road.

Weather: Clear, dry, no wind Landmarks: Historic Collegeville Cemetery dating to 1871 Airports: Stockton Municipal Airport approximately 6 miles west of location of sighting Military Installations: Sharpe Depot, approximately 8 miles southwest of location of sighting Traveling west on Mariposa Road between Escalon and Stockton, California I encounted three orange lights in the roadway east of Collegeville.

I had just passed Van Allen Road, and from about 3/4 of a mile from Collegeville, I first saw the lights. I thought the lights were an illuminated road work sign warning of construction ahead, however as I approached, I could see the lights were in the center of the road and not off to the side of the road. Since the area is a rural, farming area, I thought perhaps it was marker lights on farm equipment or a semi truck parked across the roadway. I began to slow down as I approached. The posted speed limit is 55 MPH, and I had slowed to about 30 MPH trying to discern what was in the roadway.

The lights were round and an intense orange color. They were in a horizontal line, and equally spaced. The center light appeared to be directly in the center of the roadway, while the outer two appeared to be at the edges of the roadway. The very odd thing is that while the lights were very bright, they didn't seem to cast much illumination. I didn't see any light being reflected off the roadway, the trees on the side of the road were little more than shadows darker than the night sky. One would think with such intense light, some shadow or reflected light on surrounding objects would be visible.

By this time, I had slowed to about 10 MPH and was maybe 300 feet from whatever it was I was seeing. It's very difficult to gauge exactly where you are when it is that dark, surrounded by trees, and there aren't any real landmarks.

The lights suddenly became muted. I don't know how to exactly describe it. Maybe like a piece of frosted glass was placed in front of each light and the lights began to rise into the air.

The lights cleared the tops of the trees, and appeared to start traveling southwest.

I accelerated attempting to get close enough to see what it was. All I could see was the lights.

As I approached the cemetery, the lights began traveling north, crossed the road, and began to gain altitude. As the lights gained altitude, they remained perfectly level.

Then they just winked out. Like someone turned off a switch.

I can't say anything about sound due to the engine noise of the vehicle I was driving.

That's all I can report. It was very weird.

Duration: 2 minutes

Location: Collegeville, PA, USA

Shape: Formation
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Aircraft nearby

Formation of large and small objects merging into one object.

I witnessed an unusual looking group of black, round objects around 4:30 pm., at a children's park in Collegeville, PA. These objects were seen in the area of the Limerick/Pottstown airport, but did not look like conventional aircraft, balloons, etc. There was a round object, with small round formations attached to the bottom of it. Surrounding the bottom area of this object were smaller, round black "dots" (like bees around a hive). All seemed to be moving slowly, and in unison, across the sky. By the time I ran over to my daughter(age 13) to get her attention, the group of objects seemed to disappear, leaving only one craft. It was primarily black, but with a yellow corona around the bottom. My daughter saw only one object, which she said looked silver to her, with a yellow glow. The one object slowly continued across the sky, than hovered for a brief time (roughly 20 seconds). It then disappeared completely.

I was coming out of the Collegeville ACME, the moon was rising and the sun was setting and I looked up. There was, what looked like, a plane without wings very high up.The length was about the width of my thumb and it appeared metallic. There wasn't a cloud in the sky so I figured I'd watch it to make sure the sun wasn't playing tricks on my eyes.I thought it might be a blimp but they probably don't reach that altitude.I put my groceries in the car (took about 30 seconds)and turned to look again and it was gone.....no trace.Blimps don't move that fast!
