Saw two disks shaped objects flying side by side.

It was approximately 5:05 pm. My husband picks me up every day and we were walking to the vehicle after work and got in the passenger side and he went to the driver side. I reached behind me to get the seatbelt and that’s when I saw two bright silver almost white disk shaped objects in the sky high above the tree line. They were flying together side by side. At first I thought they were helicopters but then I noticed that they didn’t have the “tail” part. As they came across, that’s when I noticed that they were both disk shaped and just “floated” across the sky side by side then they disappeared. By the time my husband got around to see, they were gone. There was no noise and I didn’t notice any lights.

I saw a white light going across the sky.

My wife and I came outside to bathroom our dogs. I looked up into the sky and saw a white light flying from the south and headed north. I pulled out my phone and started recording. I notified my wife and she looked up to watch. A plane was flying south at a higher altitude and she thought it was a plane until I pointed out the plane going in the opposite direction. She is a pilot and acknowledged that she saw the plane. As I am recording a plane was coming from the east. I thought that they could be on a collision course and started recording the other plane. When they got close you can the plane was higher in altitude and no contact occurred. The light gained speed and elevation and disappeared.

NUFORC Note:

Possibly the ISS due to its brightness.

White orb sighting between Davenport, WA and Harrington, WA

We saw a white orb appear in the sky west of Highway 28. There were two of us on foot with a clear view of the sky. It had a a solid white light that did not blink. It appeared to be moving away from us to the northwest in the sky, then disappeared. There were no clouds in the area. It reappeared in the same spot about 15 seconds after it disappeared. It appeared to be stationary for another 15 seconds, then disappeared. It was just before sunset. No stars were visible and we could see no planes were in the area at the time.

I noticed one object that was a white light moving from the east and going west headed over lake Roosevelt/the Spokane Indian reservation. The back of my house faces North. My wife and I have seen things here on more than one occasion and instead of recording we just watch them fly in the sky. This time I ran outside on my deck and started recording. I have about 1 minute and 26 seconds. I recorded the light until I lost it behind the trees. The object looked to be going in a straight line. I didn’t see any blinking lights.

Triangle craft moving in crazy way and fast

Walked out our back door to take the dog out and saw a craft with three white lights in a triangle shape with large orange/red light in the center moving over the hills in every direction tightly and insanely fast then dove out of sight behind the hill. We are located on a hillside opposite the hills this was seen. We see planes both commercial and military often as the airport and Air Force base are located beyond where this was spotted. This was not at all like those. This is not the first such sighting we’ve had here but it’s the first we’ve reported.

We were swimming, I just so happened to look up and saw strange lights.

Me, my children, and family, were swimming when I noticed it first after looking up. I thought maybe I was seeing things until I looked at my sister in law and said- Did you see that or am I crazy?

There were two orbs that were going in circles chasing each other kind of, I’m not sure but they were moving so fast in the sky it looked unreal. It looked nothing like a normal plane or aircraft going by it moved WAY too fast.
By then it went away for a few minutes and I told everyone by this time- even the neighbors came out and saw what ever was moving at the speed of light.
After about half an hour there was no more sight of the orbs.

They moved quickly sharply, they'd disappear, they hovered, no noise,

Eent to try and see the Northern Lights. went up in a wheat field so it was dark. i was looking North and saw a strange light moving, thinking plane, helicopter, maybe drone? Then it started moving sharply up, down, horizontally. So, planes out, then its changing, color, and there's more than one. Asked my friend, do you see those lights? Or is it my eyes? He also was seeing them. These things moved like nothing I've watched in our skies before. I Love the night sky and look up as much as I can. I know where Jupiter is and mars, Venus, and even the comets and meteors. I know how and where to look for sky link, I have an app or two for constellations and what not. The video is dark, remember though these are huge wheat fields on all sides. I'm taking video from the passenger side. Outside my window is a little embankment and fields, looking out the windshield which is North are fields. If you might tell me what these abnormal lights might be I'm all listening. I have more videos. These lights would appear and then just disappear. They would look like they were chasing airplanes, flying at them. I told my friend can they not see them? The pilots that is. They would appear in the South, which has a lot of planes back and forth, the east, they'd appear in the West moving North then east then shoot well wherever. They'd hover right outside my window, well in the distance, it seemed like they might be inches off the ground, and like it was watching me as well. My friend was getting a bit nervous and decided enough, especially once I got out to pee and he was nervous about that. I took video, pictures, and now have a night app in case I witness something like this again . Thanks

Shape: Light


We saw a low flying light that definitely was not a plane.

We were traveling eastbound on hwy 2 towards Davenport, when we saw a light to the southeast of us. It was headed due east towards the glow of what we presumed is Spokane. The light was as bright as an aircraft coming in for landing but it was missing the blinking green and red lights. The object was also flying lower and faster than when planes are at their cruising altitude. The part that weirded us out was that as we were passed by the object. We did not loose sight of the light until it dipped below the horizon miles and miles to the east of us. Where if it was an airplane we should have lost sight of its front light.

Bright sphere shaped object that appeared to be sitting stationary above the hills on the horizon for approximately 8 minutes.

I witnessed a very bright sphere shaped object. It appeared to be sitting stationary above the hills on the horizon for approximately 8 minutes. We have an main airport, smaller airports and an Air Force base nearby, so we're used to seeing various planes and helicopters.

It was close to sunset and I was walking my dogs at the time. The object appeared to be too large to be a star and too small to be the moon at that distance. It seemed to be about 3-4 miles out. I continued to walk with slowly with my dogs as I watched the object. However, at one point both of my dogs stopped and stared in the same direction as well.

The object disappeared from view after approximately 8 minutes. I saw a plane fly through the area shortly after. The plane was easy to identify due to it's blinking light pattern and exhaust trail.

Extremely bright object slowly moving in and out of the mid-level clouds

I was traveling east on Highway 2 from Davenport, WA. towards Airway Heights, WA.

The sky was partly cloudy. To the east at cloud level - maybe three to four thousand feet - was a very bright shiny object moving very slowly to the west. From my perspective it was shaped like a woman in a dress and without legs or arms. I have never seen any craft that was that bright and shiny. It did not look like a light, rather a very bright shiny object; or better I describe it as extremely bright and shiny. Due to its height I could not discern size. It had absolutely no contrail behind or below it. Its movement was steady and not like a weather balloon. As the object traveled in and out of the clouds it did not have a change in brightness, telling me that its brightness was not due to the sun's reflection on it. Because I was traveling on the highway I lost sight of it as it continued west and I to the east.

At the same time, far off to the southeast, towards the hills way south of Spokane I could see a very large bright yellow-orange ring suspended above the hills. From the distance it was, and in comparison to the mountains it eventually and slowly disappeared behind, I would guess that the bright ring was several miles in circumference.

Bright target shaped object over “lake Rosevelt”

Around 8:57 P.M a large bright light was north east over the Spokane river near the mouth of the Columbia river also known as lake Roosevelt, two rivers. This light was a lot brighter then anything else in the sky. It had no blinking lights and hovered in one location then would alter direction to the East very quickly then would return to its original hovering location then would tend to go back and forth in very quick moments but always return to the original spot. It tended to dash to the East very quickly more often then any other direction before returning to its original location.

To me If I could say how far it moved to the human eye I would say it moved one foot. But not knowing the distance it was from me, that 1 foot could be thousands of feet. I’ve gotten some footage and when it’s zoomed in there a clear as it looks round objects with strobe lights inside the circle. Picture a shooting target but around the bullseye is flashing lights. Keep in mind when just looking with your eyes there was zero light blink effect. Once zoomed with my camera is when it reveled the shape and strobe affect.

Was outside and looked up North towards Clermont, saw sky bursting like lighting but sky was emitting orange then red and then yellow, bursts were sporadic and in between the sky changing color circular lights were moving around and sometimes they were stationary. There was no set pattern to the lights and the temperature was too cold for lightning and lights were in a circular sphere, video was taken for a duration of 3 min on my phone

(Veteran A/C maintenance) no more than 200ft above, very large greenish oval light, zero noise, way to low and way to slow for A/C, to fast and to big of an oval light, to be mounted on the belly of a regular consumer drone, would have heard the little plastic turbine fans, however the light came on as if it noticed me, however not like a switch but a slow motion pulse directly over me then after that 50 yards to my right half pulse then nothing. Prior to first pulse, I had been looking to my left with no light then appeared.. unusual flight path not typical of all air craft traffic in the area..

4 bright white lights moving above Davenport and changing direction in unison

Three bright white circular objects/lights moving close together from east to southwest. I watched for about 20 seconds, noticed they weren’t moving like jets, airplanes, satellites, meteors...they left no trails and remained bright white. Then, I saw the 4th bright white light quite a bit behind the others- still in the eastern sky heading the same direction as the other 3. I looked back at the 3 moments before they curved gently toward the northwestern sky. The 4th continued towards the area where the 3 changed direction. Pink clouds blocked the remainder of this curious event.

Light moving at an exceptionally high rate of speed south to north.

Exceptionally fast craft moving south to north.

Tonight, July 18, 2018 sometime between 9pm and 9:30pm, my wife and I were sitting out watching the early stars and planets appear. The sky was clear. We were sitting facing due south.

As we were watching the skies we saw a single light to the south that was moving rapidly towards us, to the north.

We see both military and civilian aircraft all the time. We see them at great altitude (probably airlines coming from the east (maybe Chicago, New York, etc.) headed to the west (maybe Seattle). We also see low craft such as airliners that are leaving Spokane airport headed west, or airliners coming from the west headed to Spokane airport. Occasionally we see military aircraft coming and going from Fairchild AFB to the east of us.

Except for exceptionally high altitude craft, we usually eventually hear some amount of engine noise.

It is not unusual for us to occasionally see a satellite or the International Space Station cruise across the sky.

I give all this background because I want to express that we know the usual aircraft that frequent our skies. What we saw tonight was not anything like what we have seen in the past.

This single light, no larger than a bright star, was traveling very fast. My guess is that we watched it coming from the south to directly above us in maybe 10 seconds. We were not able to watch it as it continued north. Our assumption is that from the far south to the far north it would have traversed that distance in maybe 20 seconds. The trajectory was straight with no hint of deviance from its path.

This light was solid and did not have any light strobes associated with it. There was no way to discern a shape or altitude, other than we could not hear even the faintest engine noise, giving us the impression that it was at a very high altitude.

Never have I seen anything in the skies moving that fast.

Orangey-yellow light that flew higher up to the sky, dimmed out then disappeared, then appeared again in the same position.

Around 8:30 pm my cousin and I went outside of our house to wait for a friend that was supposed to be pulling up. My cousin was holding onto a balloon filled with helium and she ended up letting go, so we both looked to the sky to watch it float away. While we were looking to the sky, west of where we were standing, we both saw a very bright orangey-yellow light flying upwards from behind a couple of trees. It wasn't very close, it seemed to be a few neighborhoods over, and we were just watching it fly up. An airplane was flying at the time and I am very familiar with airplane lights, so when my cousin assumed it was an airplane, I assured her that it was not. It was extremely bright and sort of round, so it could not have been an airplane. I only saw one, and in order to rationalize it, I thought that it could have been a paper lantern someone had lit and released into the air, that's how bright it was. However, it started getting higher in the sky and closer! to where my cousin and I were standing. If it was a paper lantern, in a couple of minutes it should have caught fire and burned up. The light started dimming and that's what I assumed it was doing under the paper-lantern theory, and then it disappeared. We were still out there waiting for the friend, and after the 3 minutes it spent in the sky, I noticed it started glowing again after disappearing. It regenerated in the same position in the sky that it disappeared.

My girl friend and I were outside having a cigarette, happened to look up and noticed a couple pulsating lights from yellow to blue and green. At first, we thought they were planes, but had noticed they did not move but there was 3 of them in a triangle formation. Then had noticed there was more spread sporadically around. Then that's when we noticed a large light in front of the triangle formation appear for several seconds and move at rapid speed before disappearing.

We went inside for awhile, then decided to go back out, and they were still there, except for there was now a solid yellow light looking like a huge yellow ball to the left of the formation. At first was huge then faded to nothing in a instant, then it instantly came back.

Once again we went back inside for awhile came back out and the 9 original lights that were positioned in there places were still in exact same spots still pulsating colors every now and then.

This happened between hours of 3am and 6am.

4 flashing blue and red lights in the sky and 3 orange side by side lights to each other seen by three

My sister had taken my puppy outside in order to use the restroom. She came back in and informed my dad and me, who at the time, were in the living room watching TV. She informed us that there was 4 lights in the sky (at the time we thought it was stars). The lights were flashing rapidly from red to blue and back to red and so on about every 3 seconds and double the size of a regular star.

I had pointed out there was three light that were side by side in a straight line almost reminded me of a disk without actually seeing the shape of the craft itself. The lights in a disk shape were orange.

A few minutes later we went back in the house, checking on the objects a few times in a period of twenty minutes.

My dog then needed to use the restroom again a few minutes later and the objects were no longer visible.

The lights were located west of Davenport at a bearing of 271° west. Unknown of the elevation of the lights.

3 witness saw 7 UFO's flashing different colors.

I was watching TV with my ((deleted)) sister and my dad, ((father's name deleted)), when my dog began to go nuts. She barked constantly for 15 minutes and began to run around in the house, so I decided she might need to go out. I stepped outside and began playing on my phone, and my dog ran outside. I happened to look up and see my dog being weird and standing still staring at the sky motionless. I looked up to see 4 UFO’s in the sky. 3 of which were lined up motionless, changing and flashing colors. The 3 circles were blinking bright yellow and a faint orange. The other UFO was the biggest and brightness and to the left of the line of UFO’s, was flashing bright blue, and blood red.

Upon seeing these UFO’s I freaked out and grabbed my motionless black lab and, drug her inside. I told my dad ((father's name deleted)), and he went outside to see for himself. Upon going outside he couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He told me to take a picture. I pulled out my phone and tried to take a picture of the UFO line, but the weird thing was the line of them, wouldn’t show up on my phone. The big bright UFO was the one that barely showed up my phone, but I did get the picture.

He and I went inside, and he told me to bring my ((deleted--sibling)) to come outside. Upon going outside again ((sibling's name deleted)) and I see 3 more UFO’s lined up above the other 3 lined up UFO’s. But these three UFO’s we flashing purple, and white.

We went inside because it freaked us out, later before I went to bed I go back out with my dog, and all the UFO’s were gone, and this was at 22:25. But I had a lot of trouble sleeping and woke up at 03:00 to strange screeching noises. I was tired and didn’t want to see it, so I listened to screeching noises until 04:30. So I do not know if this incident was related, but I definitely freaked me out.

After school I will be giving your hotline a call.

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Landed

Red circle object hovered moved 200 feet South then back to location and descended with no sound

Noticed a red circle less than a 1/4 mile North of my location. The circle was a steady red color it never blinked. It was above a large tree the tree is about 100 feet in height.

Object appeared stationary for about 2 seconds and moved to the south in a very smooth and controlled fashion. It passed behind a large palm tree for maybe a second. It stopped just the other side of that tree for again maybe a second. It then reversed course an moved back the way it came from. When it returned to the point of origin it stopped and slowly descended downward.

The weather was clear visibility was 10 miles the ceiling was 2045 feet wind was about 10 miles per hour blowing from the ESE direction. From what I observed, I suspect that what I saw was an RC or Helicopter or a quad copter, as am familiar with these and there are several vacation condo's and villa's in my area.

The object was below the standards for hobby type RC craft below 400 feet and not near any major Airports. The object appeared to land and made no noise no other aircraft around at that time. Nothing out of the ordinary occurred while it was observed.

Shape: Formation


Five VERY SLOW moving aircraft at mid-day along the coast.

On a bright, windless day, driving south along the coast around 1pm, I saw first one, and then a total of five aircraft, make their way down from the coastal mountains, across the highway, and out over the ocean. There was also a small Cessna type aircraft buzzing up and down the coast.

These five aircraft at first seemed small, but then it appeared they were all very large, seen at a distance of a quarter mile. They were somehow very dark, too dark to identify any markings despite the bright sun overhead. They looked like large bombers in shape, but then again, not. Very hard to describe their shape. Kind-of like military planes but kind-of not. They looked more like some sort of squashed plane, with a short nose and squat wings, but very large. It was very hard to tell.

The reason I am posting this is because they were traveling at a speed SLOWER than the birds around me. Even at the distance from me, I could see the small prop plane moving faster than the five large aircraft.

They didn’t make sense. They should not of have been airborne, moving so incredibly slowly. It doesn’t make any sense. Only balloons can travel that slowly, or maybe a hand-glider. They should have fallen out of the sky.

They moved in formation all the way out to the ocean and I lost sight of them. I don’t understand.

Around 21:30, Thursday, December 29, 2016, I think I spotted an unidentified flying object.

My sister, mother, and I were sitting in my living room when my mother pointed out something in the sky. My mother is not a firm believer in UFOS, but we gathered around the bay window.

The object was massive, about as big as a full moon. The object was a deep red, about as red as Santa’s suit. The object didn't seem to be moving, just sitting in one place. The UFO seemed to sit for about three minutes until it began moving. It seemed to be moving downwards, only a few feet until it disappeared. It didn't go behind any structure, it seemed like it just went invisible, disappearing out from the sky.

We went and got into our vehicle to go look for this light, but we didn't find anything.

That's when my father said that we should contact and document our sighting.

My sister did get a picture. The picture wasn't the best quality, but to me, it seemed like there were more UFOs than originally seen.

Bright Red Lighted Object over Davenport, WA

At approximately 21:30 on 12/29/2016, I was sitting in my living room watching a movie on my laptop. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a bright red light in the sky out my living room window. At first I thought it was a firework, but the light stayed constant and there was no sound, such as a whistle or boom. There were no lights on in my living room at the time of this sighting. My living room window faces East.

I quickly got up from my seated position and alerted my daughters to the bright light in the sky. One of my daughters had her cell phone handy and I asked her to take a quick picture. She did take the picture, however, the she had the flash on and the quality of the picture is not the best. The picture does not accurately reflect the bright red of this unknown thing in the sky.

Upon inspection of the picture that my daughter took, I believe there were at least 3 unknown objects in the sky.

I continued to watch this bright red thing in the sky until is just disappeared. It did not appear to have any upward or downward motion, it just disappeared.

Honestly, as a skeptic, this has me a little rattled.

It was 21:30, when my sister, mom, and I were sitting in the living room. My mom was watching some show on her laptop when she looked over. She had noticed a bright, very bright red thing. It was red like Rudolph's nose. It was east looking over my neighbor's house.

We crowded around the window staring at it. The object was higher than our neighbors', but just was there. Not moving up or down but was just there. We stared at it for 3:00 min., not doing anything, because we didn't know what we were looking at.

“Take a picture.” My mom said, quickly. I snapped a shot with flash mode on, not realizing. I tried to get another picture, but it disappeared. It like began fading into the darkness of night. The size you could tell was big

Slow fireball with no tail floating over Central Florida sky.

Around 10:00 PM my friend was leaving my house when he saw a bright object floating in the sky. He yelled for me and I walked outside to see a round object that seemed to be on fire. The object made no sound. It had no tail. It didn’t seem to be very far up in the sky but somewhat far. It looked like it was floating across the sky at a medium speed. It was going in a straight line towards the west. We watched it until it disappeared behind houses out of our view.

About 10 minutes after seeing the first object, we were watching the sky still and saw another one that looked the same and was traveling at the same speed. The second one was farther from where we saw the first one. It was traveling in the same direction however. We waiting outside for 20 minutes and saw nothing more.

Bright orange/yellow sphere hovering over home in Davenport, FL.

July 29th, 2016. UFO Sighting. Davenport, Florida

Sitting on back deck by the pool around 10:00Pm on July 29th, 2016. Spotted a bright orange ball shaped object hovering slightly over my house. The object seemed to be able to move at varying speeds and very erratically. Ran upstairs to get my roommate and when I returned it was gone. My friend that was downstairs watching it said it flew back the direction it came from and disappeared.

Wondering if anyone else spotted this object.

Pale dim white and blue lights.

Watching the community fire works in Davenport, Florida, I notice a Pale white circular light. My first thought was a spot light until I noticed it moving in irregular patters. my second thought was a swarm of bugs... then the lady next to me pointed it out too. There was maybe 150 people at the event. Not sure how many people noticed. Then 2 low flying planes from either direction swoop in. I live close to the airport, but I never seen planes fly this low. Right as the planes pass each other and circle back around, the pale white circular light speeds away, almost directly up, faster than anything I have ever seen. They hung around for about 30-40 minutes. the sky was hazy and cloudy due to storms moving out. it looked like the lights were shining through the clouds.... THEN... driving the gulf cart in the back of the neighborhood where they are still developing it, my son notices a pale blue flashing beam in the sky... going horizontally. with more pale whi! te circular lights floating around it, much higher in altitude this time. My son got scared so we headed back home.

Large bird like shaped object that was transparent and details could not be made out so easily.

I saw a see through object in a shape like a huge bird, but I couldn’t make out details as I was seeing mostly through it and not the actual object itself.

It flew slowly but with enough speed to be gone in about 10 seconds.

A u turning shooting star amongst an incredible amount of strange starry activity.

Family of 5 saw many questionable shooting stars going in all directions north to south, south to north, east to south, west to east, lost track after 17. At least 3 of said objects had comet like tails.

One light northeast of us did a u-turn.

We also saw 4 distant objects that hovered then would cross the sky at such an amazing speed, that best described by our eldest teen bested the Blue Angels, and disappear among the stars.

One of the comet-tailed light seen appeared to be 3 lights clustered.

After 75 minutes we realized our 9 year old was no longer comfortable and quite overwhelmed, and had to stop so not certain the activity stopped.

Bright cobalt blue light on a north-east path from Davenport, FL. @ 5:45 AM

My dogs became very alert and anxious to a muffled booming noise (similar to a door being slammed in the distance).

When I peaked out of the window there was a cobalt blue light in the sky which seem to have movement. Thinking it was a reflection from an electronic device in my bedroom, I decided to go outside to confirm if it was in fact a light in the sky. To my surprise, it was.

The cobalt blue light continued on a path to the North East from my location before disappearing in the distance a rapid lateral motion could be seen which made it seem impossible for a civilian plane. The light was a solid, non-flashing cobalt blue light.

I have been a plane spotter and photographer for years, and have seen many civilian and military aircraft fl,y and it did not behave as such. Living in an area with many balloon flights which often have a light of similar color, I discarded the option due to its speed and path. Also discarded it being a rotary wing craft, due to its speed and rapid lateral movement.

Two Triangles of Lights Seen Above Davenport FL

Last night, June 8th, 2015, around 9:35pm, my husband and I were dropping off my daughter and nephew to my cousin’s house in The Groves at Legacy Park off of Hwy 27. While we were driving through the neighborhood, we both saw bright gold-orange lights above and behind some of the houses. We didn’t have a clear view, as we were glancing these lights between houses as we passed them.

At first, I had thought only I saw them. As my husband saw me craning my neck to catch peeks between the houses, he said, “It is streetlights, babe.” Then I knew that he has seen the same lights I had. So I took his word for it and we dropped off the kids. The kids had not noticed anything as they were in the back talking and distracted by teen things.

As we pulled up towards the stoplight on Hwy 27, we saw the lights in the sky again! Only now, they were off in the distance across the highway on the east side of Hwy 27. What we saw in the sky were what appeared to be 2 enormous triangle shaped objects that consisted of 3 large and extremely bright gold-orange lights each. **This could also have been 6 bright lights in two separate V formations??** But to us, it appeared to be 2 large triangles with 3 lights a piece.

As we were watching the lights and freaking out, I was telling my husband that I knew I had seen something when we were dropping the kids off! The lights moved farther away together for a few moments, then suddenly, right before our eyes, one of the triangles (3 lights) just disappeared!!

We had pulled onto Hwy 27 going south and keeping our eyes on the last triangle. We were speeding down the highway trying to reach a particular side road that we could pull off on and try to record on my husband’s phone.** As we were driving, I was trying to record and did a horrible job of it. I was so excited/nervous that I never actually hit record, so I got nothing! ** The triangle of lights continued moving very swiftly to the southeast. Suddenly, as we watched, this triangle just disappeared, same as the first!! It disappeared in the vicinity of the Omni Resorts golf course.

Right as it disappeared, we reached the side road and pulled off near the new Four Corners High School. We rolled down the windows of the car and searched the sky to see if it would reappear or if there were any other traces of it. My husband said that if it were any commercial aircraft it would have navigation lights (blinking red, green, blue, or white type lights) like you see on airplanes and helicopters. There was no sign of the triangle. It simply vanished.

I am not sure what this was. This is not the first “UFO” we’ve seen either. We are the family that saw a domed-disk UFO on Sept. 24, 2011. We are still coming to terms with what we saw that night. Then to see this last night is mind boggling. I am wondering why many other people who were on the road have not reported seeing this?! It was very obvious.

Large orange light seen in night sky from Davenport, FL.

Large orange light came into view from the north heading south, just over the roof line of our backyard neighbor. Light stopped directly east of where we were standing in our back yard (our backyard faces east) and appeared stationary for several seconds, perhaps a minute, before it started moving east, or started to dim (we were unable to tell if it was moving out of view or dimming) until it became a tiny red dot and then disappeared.

Several orange fireballs over Davenport, Florida.

I was outside looking for my dog who ran off earlier. I noticed several(at least20) fireball like lights descending from the sky. At first I thought they were stars. But they were orange and moving. They all moved in formation. They were like a flock of birds. I watched until they all went below my fence line. But then 3 of them ascended and got smaller until they disappeared. Then 1 more did the same. And 1 at a time, they all did the same.

I got a little on my camera.

I have never seen anything like this before.

Orange Glowing Object over Davenpor,t WA.

This occurrence happened just outside of Davenport, Wa. on the evening of Tuesday, October 22, 2013, at approximately 11:30 pm.

My husband could not sleep so he opened the blinds on the window to look at the stars outside. After a few moments he noticed a round orange glowing object heading towards him from the northeast. He was not sure of the speed but the object was getting bigger as it moved towards his location. He decided to take a picture with his camera phone but each time he put the phone up he could not find it in his viewfinder. He snapped one picture and a short video to see if he could bring them up later.

He then decided to go outside to try and get a better picture. He got dressed and went outside, the orange glowing light was now solid white blinking lights and the direction the object had been traveling had changed. He thought maybe it had been an aircraft since it seemed to come from the direction of the Air Force base, but he still could not pick it up on his camera. He took another video to see if anything would show up later. The last picture he took was of the moon just to make sure the camera was working.

We spoke about the object briefly the next day but did not look at the pictures or videos until Sunday, October 27, 2013. The first picture was of course black and we could not find anything on it. Then we looked at the short video, again there was no picture but the audio was what shocked us. The audio was a short clip of my husband and son-in-law's conversation from previously in the evening, a conversation they had at about 7:30 pm. and no possible way for the phone to record their conversation. The second video had the correct audio but we couldn't see anything captured in the video and the fourth picture of the moon you could clearly see the moon.

The other item that shocked us about these images and videos were the times. The first picture and video with the wrong audio that were taken inside, showed they were taken and 7:29 and 7:31 pm. They would have been taken closer to 11:30 pm. The second video and picture of the moon, which were taken outside showed a time of 11:33 and 11:35 pm which would have been taken closer to the correct time. It was showing a four hour time difference between what was taken inside and what was taken outside.

My husband says he does not remember any missing time for himself but at the time thought it was odd that the object had changed so fast from the few minutes it took him from seeing the initial object to going outside to get a better view.

Fiery orbs/ Spheres seen on two seperate occasions

August 6th and August 23 sightings reports On August 6th 2013 at approximately 9:40pm CST I witnessed 8 orange glowing spheres over fly my location and ascend into the clouds. I was out in my apartment parking lot walking my dog so he could go potty, when I looked to my right, and noticed two Fiery orange spheres floating through the air side by side. To my right (due south) was a line of pine trees perpendicular to me, and behind that a financial office and doctors office. Beyond that even further was 53rd street as appears in the map I am sending you. The objects, as I don’t know what else to call them were about the size of a small car. They were evenly spaced at 50 feet apart and were directly side by side. These objects were to my right moving to my left, from due south on a due north heading and literally flew right over my head.

At this hour of the night, there was no prevailing wind of any kind it was still. The cloud ceiling was approximately 500 feet with heavy overcast. These objects were no more a couple hundred feet high if that. They literally moved right over top of my at this low altitude, moved no more than 200-300 feet farther to my left before moving straight up in the the cloud base and disappearing.

No sooner than this happened, did ANOTHER pair do exactly the same thing. In total, I witnessed four pairs of these objects take exactly the same flight path, in pairs, with exactly the same spacing between them and same altitude, everything. At this time, the street lights in my apartment went black, and my cell phone SHUT ITSELF OFF. This is NOT something that has happened before, and unnerved me greatly. These objects were the size of a small car and were radiating orange light, they were VERY bright, spherical in appearance, and were casting shadows in the parking lot. It didn’t just unnerve me, it unnerved my dog as well who was whimpering and wanting to go back in the apartment.

I did not fill out a report of this initially because I did not think anyone would believe me. Simply put I thought I was the only one who saw this, and had no pictures because of the odd behavior of my phone and the lights in the lot.

The reason I have chosen to write this now is because I saw an identical object again on August 23rd 2013 at exactly 10:09pm CST. I know the exact time because I was able to get three pictures of the object this time which was alone, and coming from the same direction and general area as last time but veered away from me and up in the clouds at what I estimate was a half mile this time. When I spotted this object, again out for a walk with my dog, it was approximately 30 degrees off the horizon from me and the size of my thumbnail with my arm held at arms length. Again, there was wind this time but the wind was a easterly wind and this object was headed right for me moving north, until it made a turn and headed west, heading directly INTO the wind. The wind speed was 6-7 mph as I measured it after this sighting with a Kestrel wind meter.

I am forwarding you the three photographs I managed to capture of this object as well. The photos were captured using a Samsung Galaxy S2 Cellular telephone with the flash feature turned off. It is the model 727I phone, with an 8 megapixel camera. I do not use any other mode than the normal one, or any aftermarket camera apps. The images I am sending you were displayed in Microsoft office picture viewer and the brightness enhanced and size blown up. No other edits were made and I can and will send you copies of the originals upon your request in their unaltered form. I used the railing of my deck to steady my hand in the hopes of getting some decent pictures.

These sightings took place in northeastern davenport iowa, near the mt joy airport, which is a small regional airport with minimal traffic and a small national guard rotary wing unit stationed there as well. No Nat’l Guard traffic was in the air that I know of. There were other aircraft in the air during both sightings. Someone else HAD to have seen this..

Fleet of "fireball" type ufo seen!

First witnessed 3 craft ascending at about a 90 degree angle in a strait line, then dimming out remaining slightly visible to the naked eye until reaching a certain altitude. This phenomenon was repeated several times over a 10-20 minute period, with the groups ranging from 2-4 (of the u.f.o.).

The night prior me and 5 others witnessed the 8 of the same type (u.f.o.) flying and vanishing in the same manner. I'm sure hundreds in the area witnessed the event as well.

Arriving at my house and as I'm pulling into my driveway out of nowhere I saw 2 fireballs appear in the sky and shoot down then they simultaneously changed direction and started shooting up then they moved left then right then two more appeared and made a similar pattern the original 2 objects headed east and west in opposite direction while the new ones moved north and south in opposite direction the last one just flew in a straight line in between they all seemed to trail smoke like a comet or rocket glow yellow then red and at one point twinkle silver the they disappeared without a trace and a severe thunderstorm rolled in. I have pictures I can send. This is not the first time I have seen activity in this area but the first time I have seen it in daylight.

Characteristics: Lights on object

Three dim red lights in a triangle formation moving fast

The date was January 3, 2013. The time was about 12 minutes after 9 o’clock.

We were sitting in the hot tub. The sky was very clear and cold with lots of stars in the night sky.

Three dim red lights passed over us in an almost due north direction. They did NOT flash like an aircraft’s lights do. At first we thought we were seeing a shooting star, but there were three lights.

There was absolutely NO sound associated with these lights. They were much dimmer than civil aviation lights.

The three lights stayed in the same “formation” the entire time we saw them.

The lights moved very fast; much quicker than an airplane; unless said plane was very close to the ground. If it had been a commercial jet sized plane, it must have been much closer to the ground than the normal flights that pass over this area because the lights were at least twice as wide as a commercial jetliner’s lights appear. Perhaps it might have been a military aircraft that we were not supposed to see.

But it made NO sound.

One of the other things that struck me as odd was that the lights, while in a triangular formation, did not look right for a plane to me. Normally a plane has lights at the end of its wingtips, and another at the tail, and maybe one under its belly or nose. Such lights clearly delineate the outer edges of the plane.

These lights passed over in a skewed triangle. They did not appear to line up with the direction of travel. If it was a plane, it appeared to be flying sort of sideways.

I listened for a sonic boom, because they appeared to be going very fast, even for a low level plane; but they made no sound.

I’ve seen a lot of things in the skies before, but nothing ever looked like this.

Bobbing controlled light

Proceeding home from a salmon fishing trip from Wanapum Dam, WA on July 10th, 2012 my friend and I stopped just east of Ritzville, WA after leaving the I-90 freeway to stretch our legs to be more alert for animals crossing the road ahead of us. We stopped beside some cement granaries beside the railroad tracks. I was gazing up at the Big Dipper constellation when I noticed apparent an airplane twin lights moving toward the Big Dipper bucket which went for some distance almost beneath the Dipper handle then disappeared. Wondering what had happened to the plane lights I continued tracking farther toward the Big Dipper bucket when the light reappeared but as a single orange colored light. I glanced at my wristwatch noting the time as 11:55 pm the resumed watching it. Then it stopped, moved rapidly vertical a bit, then descended quickly and returned to the first position. It bobbed about weirdly several times. I pointed it out to my friend when the lights had disappeared the first time and we both watched it for about 15 minutes looking for possible explanations that might indicate what and how it might occur and decided to get going home. It was still there when we left.

Two witness one amber fireball track south over the Quad Cities

We saw one amber/orange ufo as we were looking out our west-facing window. It was low in the sky and moving north to south. No sound came from it.

Our first thought was that it was an airplane on fire. (There is a mid-size airport in Moline--to our southwest--so we thought that perhaps it was going to make an emergency landing.)

As it tracked south, we moved to our south-facing window.

It eventually moved into the southern horizon and we lost it in our neighbors' tree line.

Aircraft with 3 headlights, very slow, low, and quiet.

An aircraft with 3 closely spaced white headlights (plus other red navigational lights) was seen traveling about 25 mph and about 50 ft. off the ground. My daughter and I watched the aircraft travel through our property for several minutes. The only sound it made was a quiet humming. It ran roughly parallel to Hwy 2, about ¼ mile from the hwy. It made a few slight course changes. I got the impression the craft had some sort of dome on it like an E-2, or had rotors, but there was no sound or feeling of rotor wash. It was the size of a small aircraft.

I spent 5 years in the Navy, and worked as an engineer in the semiconductor industry. I am now a home schooling mom. My 12 year old daughter also saw the craft.

Oval, hanging vertically above busy intersection in Davenport, IA at mid day.

This was my first experience of this kind and I feel obliged to share. Coming home from paying this month's rent, I noticed something silver and shimmering in the sky. This object caught the sunlight in an amazing fashion. Off in the distance I strained my eyes to make out what it was. My friend was driving at the time so I had to point it out to them. We speculated as to what it could be as we drove closer and closer. It didn't move unless we broke eye contact, so we eliminated the possibility of a far off jet or plane. It wasn't whirling so we eliminated helicopters. These are the usual air crafts the run traffic above Davenport. I leaned forward in the passenger seat still trying to figure out what it could be as we came directly underneath it. Fourteen to fifteen stories up, an oval shaped object hung there, motionless. I judged it to be about the size of a four-door vehicle. I struggled to make out some detail, but it was unusually blurry, as if on purpose. The blue sky seemed to show through these holes running along the frame of the object. As we passed below it I hopped over the middle seats and got to the back to try and catch another glimpse, but it was gone. I could not identify the object, so to me, it was a UFO. I apologize for not having any evidence of this experience. My deepest regret was that I had my cellphone in hand and was too busy trying to figure out what it was to take a picture.

Domed Disc in the skies of Davenport, FL 9/24/2011

I live in Davenport, FL, only a few miles from Walt Disney World Resort. On Saturday, September 24, 2011 we had family arrive in town for their vacation. That night we all went down to Downtown Disney to shop, eat, and have a good time. Our evening was cut short by one of the worst lightning storms I have ever seen. I have only lived in Florida just over a year but I am accustomed to Florida’s storms and how fast they can come on, so we hustled our group back to our cars expecting a bad thunderstorm.

Our group consisted of me 35, my husband 40, my Aunt 56, 2 female cousins 32 and 28, my 2 daughters 12 and 8, my cousins’ children 17, 13, 10, 8, 5 & 5. We divided this group of 13 between a minivan and my car.

As we leave, and are safely in our vehicles, we see a bolt of lightning in the distance that was so strong and bright that my husband and I joke, "That’s some War of the Worlds lightning!" referring to the sci-fi moving about extra-terrestrials starring Tom Cruise. It did not rain on us though, just more lightning and wind.

My cousin, who was driving the minivan, with my Aunt, and a bunch of the kids, decides she will follow us because she does not know the way back to our place and it will be easier for her. We take the Champion’s Gate exit and turn onto Ronald Reagan Pkwy, as we are at the first light we see something hovering low in the air that is disc shaped with a domed top and some sort of panel type lights that are white and sort of blink in a rapid, circular/rotational, succession around the dome giving the feeling of animated movement (think carnival lights, but bright and not colorful and of course large, that is the only thing I can think of for the movement). This object was so low and bright, completely still and something to look at, I immediately thought that this was some sort of attraction which is typical in Central Florida.

I yell to my husband and kids, and my cousin, "What is that? A blimp?! What is that?!”" We are all looking and cannot believe our eyes! This thing was hovering, not tethered and no one was around. It became clear this was not an attraction of any sort. I felt like I was going to throw up. I could not believe what we were seeing! Instead of taking a pic on my cell phone (I could kick myself now) I hurriedly call the cell phone of my cousin who was in the minivan immediately behind us at the light. I scream into the phone, "Oh my god! Do you see…" and before I can get it out my Aunt yells back, "What is that?! Oh my gosh!"

We are all in an uproar in both vehicles, staring in disbelief and trying to come to grips with what we are seeing. The object slowly hovers a short distance as we continue to stare and try to make sense of what we are seeing and burn it into our memory, then ZOOM the object moves (to the southwest)away faster than I have ever seen anything move. We proceed through the light trying to keep it in our sight.

We can see by the band of lights (which windows immediately struck me, not sure why) that this thing banked hard like a saucer of in the distance, because the band of lights appeared diagonal in the sky. Next thing we know it was out of sight.

Please keep in mind that this all happened within the time span of a red traffic signal, seconds or a minute at most and the few seconds after that it remained in our line of sight. I know this sounds unbelievable. We called my other cousin and her husband, who live only 3 miles from where we were and less than a quarter mile from my home, and told them what we saw. We were all freaking out! She and her husband immediately go out and scan the skies and tell us they see nothing but a few helicopters or planes (I’m sorry I don’t remember which she said) with search lights on.

As we drove home, about 1/8th mile from the sighting 2 police or sheriffs cars were parked on the side of the street facing out towards the street (taking a break or talking, I thought). We wondered if they had seen anything. Every one of us including the littlest experienced this together. We talked about it the rest of the night and how we will never forget this. However, how do you convince yourself what you saw was real? I know what I saw and it was amazing and unexplainable, yet my mind keeps telling me I am crazy and I keep asking everyone are you sure we actually saw that? Of course I know we did. It was so close and too real to deny it. This happened to us, and I don’t know why but I feel like maybe I have gone a little insane or that something is wrong with us all. How can we believe our own eyes? I must admit that I am surprised by this reaction in myself, because I always said that I believe in UFO sightings but when I see one with my own eyes I cannot believe it. Please tell me I am not crazy! 13 people don’t just see the same unexplained thing! I searched for any UFO sightings in FL on the internet that night. Found nothing specific. This is not a hoax and I am not a flaky person (neither is my family). I cannot tell you if anyone besides my family in our 2 separate cars saw this at that intersection. All of ours eyes were upward and with all of the freaking out I must say that I was not looking at much else. Plus my husband was driving, and as he proceeded through the light and on the rest of our trip home, we all still continued to watch the sky and talk excitedly so I didn’t pay much attention to our other surroundings. I wish one of us would have taken a picture and I wish I would have noticed if there was anyone else at that light who could confirm this. We were for lack of a better word, stupefied. As I stated earlier, there were 2 police troopers out there but we did not pull over; who wants to be laughed at and thought to be an idiot?

Multiple glowing orange cross-shaped craft seen by 3 people in Davenport, Wa

We were outside lying on my deck, watching a yearly meteor shower when multiple cross-shaped craft or objects appeared. They emitted an orange light and they zig-zagged around unlike anything I've ever seen. They moved around in an unusual pattern for a few minutes then took off at a speed our aircraft are incapable of.

A few nights later, my son and I were speaking of the incident with his girlfriend. When we looked up we saw the same orange craft in a different location of the sky. This time they were closer and there were fewer of them. I have no doubt these were not of this earth.




NUFORC Note:

We spoke with this witness, and we found her to be exceptionally well-spoken, and exceptionally objective in her description of the object witnessed. We suspect that she is an excellent witness. She will attempt to have the other two witnesses submit reports, as well. PD

Triangle observed hovering over davenport near regional airport

I went outside my apartment at approximately 10:00 pm CST, to put my car in the garage for the night. While descending the stairs I noticed what looked like two brilliant lights in a spot where at this time of the year there usually aren’t any constellations that are visible to the naked eye.

These two lights were in very near proximity and directly over a prominent landmark, the church across the street. After putting the car in the garage, I was staring directly at the object on my walk back to the apartment from the garage. I could see the two lights in close proximity clearly and they were as bright or just a fraction dimmer than other stars in the night sky.

The North Star, directly at my back while looking at the lights in question, was twice as bright as these two lights visible to the naked eye.

The weather conditions were completely clear sky, with no visible moon. The object/ lights observed were approximately 45 degrees over the horizon line. The compass bearing to the object was 160 or nearly due South.

At arm’s length the two lights were approximately the width of my fingernail on my smallest finger. I observed the object and attempted to take photos with my iphone but it failed to capture any images of the object as it was too dark.

I went inside and got a pair of binoculars to better view the lights. Upon focusing in with my Nikon Eagleview 8-24x25mm binoculars, I noticed a third light, forming a triangle formation.

The formation the third light was dimmer than the first two and made what appeared to be a triangle object look like a long very pointed craft. The angles appeared to be 30 degrees and two 60 degree angle near what looked like the base.

The two brighter lights at the ‘base’ of the object looked as though they had a yellow tint to them, much like a car’s headlights would, not a bluish tint as the other stars around it.

The third, more dim light also had this characteristic also. The yellow color, and the proximity of the two brighter lights, and the fact that usually there are not bright lights in the sky in that area of sky are what attracted my attention.

The third, more dim light was approximately double the distance from the first two lights as the first two lights were wide. Together the three lights formed a long, slender very pointed triangle as they appeared when viewed through the binoculars.

I called the NUFORC hotline and was advised to submit a written report. I was also advised to take photos if possible. My camera is not operational, so I woke a neighbor and borrowed her camera. After taking multiple shots, I was only able to get one picture that captured the image I was viewing clearly through my binoculars and with the naked eye.

I first saw this object at approximately 10pm, and noted the time as the 10 o’clock news had just come on.

The camera used was a Casio Exilim 7.2 Megapixel digital camera. Flash was turned off, and I was zoomed in ¾ of maximum zoom. Was only able to capture one picture showing object. I tried different zooms, different settings for lighting, everything I could. I could not get another picture to show the object. It is 2 hours 17 minutes past time I first noticed object and object is still visible in sky.

From my front door, the object was showing on my iphone compass as bearing 160 degrees from true north. I extended my arm out and estimated the angle to be approximately 45 degrees off the horizon from me. The horizon is light as I was overlooking the downtown davenport to the east, which borders the Mississippi river. It was much higher than the horizon and could not have been radio towers or anything the like. There is an Army National Guard Aviation Unit flying ch-47 Chinooks was stationed out of the regional airport to the west. Looking directly at the object, the big dipper was at 298 degrees from my position, to the NW. the airport where the national guard unit is stationed is approximately bearing of 21 degrees, almost due north of my location. No other constellation was visible anywhere near the object I writing to report. Usually the Orion constellation is visible in the general area but more to the east but could not see the Orion this evening.

Weather conditions were clear. Storms were here most of the day but cleared off early afternoon. By 7pm CST all clouds had for the most part cleared off leaving clear skies. At the time of writing it is still clear. No meteorites are visible. No heat lighting is visible. I am familiar with most known military aircraft, NATO and Soviet/Russian manufacture, both fixed wing and rotary. This did not resemble any aircraft I have ever seen.

The object made no noise, and is still at the time of writing stationary in the night sky. Aircraft have passed underneath this object and have not changed course to avoid it. This object appears to be much higher than the air traffic transiting below it. Perhaps this was stellar objects that simply looked like an aircraft? Perhaps it is unidentified? Given the proximity of the 3 objects I do not know what to make of this.

Silent moving, dark, circular object with reflective bottom moving over houses in Davenport, IA.

I had just pulled into work at 10:15pm and was walking around the front of my car. The moon was full and I was facing West with the moon to my back left slightly. Something passed in front of the moon completely blocking the light for a second as the shadow passed me. This caught my attention and I looked up and to my left.

When I looked up I saw a craft moving due West and completely silent. It appeared to be about a block or so away and 150 feet above the treeline. It was circular on the bottom and seemed to look slightly smaller than a house in size. There were no lights on it, but the bottom seemed to be highly reflective and appeared to be reflecting a few street lights from below. The bottom surface did not appear to be smooth, as the reflections of light moved on it irregularly.

I watched it move slow and silently for about 1 minute before it went behind a building I was close to.

I don't think I would have seen it at all if I had not been in the path of the shadow it cast as it went by. No sound, no lights, completely dark object except for the reflections.

A green heat light traveling east to west.

This was not a UFO but more of a light wave?.. Hard to explain but if you can imagine the heat effect on a summer day on a hot street then this is what I saw in the sky at night. The color of this "wave" was florescent green. It looked to be half the distance from horizon to horizon in a straight line. It moved from east to west. It was not the shape of a laser but more a see through green heat wave that distorted the clouds as it passed. It started out very large and ended in the western sky at a small point of light the fizzled out.

This is very hard to explain.

The more I think about it, might of been a meteor above the clouds but this heat light took 10 seconds to go from horizon to horizon.

star turned into a bright flare gradually changed and suddenly lost the light

I was driving alone from my mothers house in Half Moon Bay to my house in Santa Cruz. About 45 mins in between the two cities with nothing in between, and the sky was clear and crisp. About halfway in my drive, I noticed one of the stars started to gradually and became incredibly white bright flare-ish light. It did not move at all. I thought someone shot a flare, or a firework, but it didn't move, and the light dispersed after a full minute of bright flare lights to a normal glimmering "star".

I pulled over to take a picture of it from my blackberry phone but it went away before I can take the shot, and my phone suddenly went out of power. I've seen a lot of things in the sky that COULD be explained, but this one I couldn't find a logical explaination. If you can debunk and find out what I saw, that would help me sleep better at night.

Thanks for the website, keep up the good work.

Bright concentrated lights in two bursts, electrical disturbances, magnetic signs.

It was early in the morning and my brother and I were going to sleep after watching a film. As I was laying in bed I looked over at the large picture window across the hall.After a few minutes I saw an amazingly bright light beam shoot through the window, lasting 10 seconds. Even though it was of a light quality I had never before seen, I assumed it was one of my other brothers shining a light in my face. I ignored it and was about to go to sleep when my dad walked up the stairs and asked if we had been messing around with a strobe light.He then thought that maybe a police helicopter or swat team was searching for somebody. It was then we all concurred that we saw something extremely odd. We all walked toward the window and then again, this time only about 5 seconds, and it vanished. We could see nothing else in the sky because the whole sky lighted up, but the beam branched out to concentrate in out attic.

We have never seen anything like that before or since. Ever since the occurrence the electricity in our house has been power surging and shorting. The next day me and my brother felt disoriented and unbalanced although we never consume alcohol.In our car coins were sticking together and the clock was flashing 12:00 as if the car's electrical system turned off.

Two steady parallel lights moving west spotted in Lincoln County, Washington.

While driving west on Highway 2 in Washington State last night, I saw two lights move parallel to each other across the horizon... looking up at a 45 degree angle. This was just 10 miles west of the city of Davenport, Washington, in Lincoln County.

It was not similar to a shooting star, as there were two lights with a steady luminescence traveling together. There was no fade in or fade out... the lights were at the same level of brightness at the beginning of the move as they were at the end.

pyramid constilation UFO slowly move across night sky

I was staring up at the sky smoking a cigar and talking with a buddy of mine, i spotted a giant triangle which had at first just looked like stars. I never seen an object just looked like a pyramid constilation in the night sky. After watchin the sky for about 20 minutes the pyramid constilation began too move across the sky and I watched it for about 6 minutes move slowly across the sky until it disappeared behind the trees.

Pulse Plasma light / craft

As I was walking my dog just a few minutes ago I was looking up at the stars and saw, what I thought was a satellite. It was about the same magnitude of an ordinary star, and sometimes you’ll see a satellite in the morning or at night when the sun from over the horizon hits them just right. For reference it was moving slightly faster than the satellites I’ve seen in the past. That would mean it was either moving faster than a satellite, or at a similar speed, but lower altitude. It was moving on an almost perfect easterly heading, if anything a little east to northeast. It did not appear to maneuver or change directions.

As I watched it arc across the sky all of a sudden it was surrounded by a brilliant flash. That’s when I knew it wasn’t an ordinary satellite I was seeing it was something else. The flash was not like a strobe light of an airplane, but more like a cloud of plasma that enveloped the light. Relative to the size of the light I saw moving, the flash appeared to be about 10 times its size. Then it flashed again about every 5 to 7 seconds. I watched it until it was out of sight, but then I saw another flash even though I couldn’t see the light itself. Whatever it was, it just kept on going.

While technically a UFO, I’m beginning to think I might have seen a high altitude spy aircraft, or black aircraft. The flash could have been a pulse detonation type of propulsion system, or atmospheric skip vehicle. If it was emitting a pulse, or skipping the atmosphere at the altitude I think it was, its exhaust, or the interaction with the atmosphere might have created the flash / plasma effect I was seeing. The color of the light / vehicle, and the flash were identical, both appearing a brilliant white, similar to a white LED light in color temperature. There were no other colors or lights that one might normally associate with an aircraft. Other than the light / flash I could not distinguish the planform of an aircraft or any structure. Again, it was dark, moving fairly fast and at high altitude.

Here comes the strange part. As I watched the light arc across the sky, all of a sudden I see a shooting star or something cross its path immediately behind it. Whatever that was, it was a very very quick streak of light, but in an amber color. The streak was moving on a line I would estimate to be north to northwest in direction. So I’m thinking did something just shoot at this thing? Or was this a total coincidence. Very odd, hopefully someone else saw this too.

(I was a trained aircraft observer for the Western Michigan University flight team in the early 1990’s. During the flight competitions we had an aircraft recognition tests so I was trained to visually identify a wide variety of commercial and military aircraft.)

Light traveling in an arc, at high altitude.

We were visiting with neighbors while walking our dog. One of the neighbors happens to catch something out of the corner of his eye, and says: "Look at that!" and I turned to look. I had time to turn and see it for about a good 2 seconds. We all witnessed a large, (about the size of a quarter to your naked eye at arms length) orange light traveling in an arc (with the shape of the earth, or atmosphere) The reason I say it was large is that it appeared to be at a very high altitude. It traveled slowly for the few short seconds we saw it. It crossed the sky on a heading or west to north west, and then simply vanished.

Our first thought was that this was a piece of space junk re-entering the atmosphere. I have no idea what it was, but it was moving a lot slower than a shooting star would move. I've seen Russian Rocket bodies enter the atmosphere, and generally they tend to disintegrate and you can see different parts, or a shower of sparks as they fall. My other thought was that it had something to do with a Chinese Anti Sattelite weapon test, and could have been debris from that. Again, it didnt splinter or spark. It was just solid. This was really odd. We have no idea what it was.

Power outage and blinking lights in Polk County Florida.

While sitting at home and just finishing watching a movie me and my wife were on the couch. Although we don't know if this is related there was a flash of white light either outside or from a lamp bulb. It was to quick to tell. the power went out in the neighborhood right after for about 10 seconds and then came back on.

As we sat there and talked about it I rememered I needed something at the store and on my way out to the car I saw a spotlight searching over houses. I was pretty sure this was a power truck looking for a blown box but I don't think they saw any because they drove off a minute later. I then looked into the sky to see the little dipper and a few other stars.

I a;ways see one or 2 stars that look like they're gleaming but I noticed one tonight that was not gleaming but was actually blinking. Sometimes I know the gases in the air can make star look another color but this one was literally blinking red, green and blue. I called my wife out who is very closeminded to these things but admitted 'that's not a plane." Now I know planes move at high altitudes and sometimes apear not to be moving but they wouldn't be using those light schemes especially that high.

The light stayed stationary for about 5 minutes as we watched but as soon as my wife went in to get the camera it moved up and to the right. I took about 6 pictures at 5 mega pixels and large format but it was pretty dark in the sky so the pics do show the color and in a few it looks as though the object is 2 pieces but you can't make out a shape.

I don't know much about image construction so all i can really do is increase the size to see the colors but I can't figure out a shape. Here are some links to the cropped pics.

Either way like I said I have seen alot of strange lights

WAIT AS I'M SITTING HERE NOW EXACTLY ONE HOUR LATER WE JUST GOT ANOTHER FLASH AND POWER OUTAGE. THE LIGHT IS BACK IN THE SKY.

Please look at the pics and if you're in the polk county area of florida share your sightings too. Im going back outside.

UFO Sighting in Davenport, by the Sharewood apartments, and the Mississippi Valley Fair.

It was around eleven ten P.M. when I looked out the window.I saw four bright lights shining but I though it was a airplane or something else cause I didn't believe in UFO's.I went to get ready for bed and got a drink of water but before I went to bed I looked out the window again through the front.The four lights started to get closer then thats when I started getting a little scared because I realized it wasnt a airplane.It started moving I dont know how fast. I live right behind the fairgrounds so it moved from the fairgrounds (that's where it all happened) it started going above my house. I stopped looking out the window and started walking all around the house and I was either going to wake my mom up but she had to wake up at four or call the cops but that wasnt necessary. I looked through the front window again and it wasnt there. I looked out my back window and the UFO was right above the pond by the Sherwood Forest appartments.I started to gaze in what happened. The UFO got closer to the pond and it started going back the same way it started from. I couldnt look anymore and I was practically shaking so I went in my mom's bed. I kept hearing noises but I still tried to go to sleep.All kinds of things were going through my head. I was thinking should I fight the alien how will the alien get in and if it did jump out the window maybe and go to my neighbors.Then i started thinking if the alien would take me I would want my mom to go with me so I tucked in closer to her.I fell asleep and then the next day i went to my neighbors and asked if they saw a UFO. They said it wasnt no aiplane for sure and they thought it was either a object that was in the sky or a UFO.

I was sitting on steps leading to my house. I was facing west when I noticed a light moving from a westardly direction that was very high in the sky. If it were not moving, I could have easily mistaken it for a planet.

It followed a slightly arced pattern in the sky, heading in a south east direction. When it was directly above me I called my wife to come outside and witness what I was seeing.

At first she thought it was an aircraft, then I pointed out how high it was and how fast it was moving. There were no flashing lights.

She then realized that it was unusual. As we were facing south east, at about the ten o'clock position the object stopped and started to fade. It appeared like it was going straight up. It then disappeared.

I've seen meteor showers and this did not look like a meteor. Right after the incident, we saw a high flying aircraft and realized from that reference that what we had seen was not an aircraft. We've never seen anything like this.

Fast moving objects racing across florida sky

I was at work at the time. I had just sit down on my 2:00 p.m. break. Due to all the hurricanes we have been recently experiencing, I guess I was just looking in the sky,looking at the clouds. What I saw appeared to be one object moving at a tremendous speed alot faster than any plane Ive seen.It looked to be far away up high. Then it went behind a cloud, when it came back out of behind the cloud.(I would like to say to when I say clouds it was way beyond the cloud) It accelarrated very fast and split in to two different directions then disappeared. I guess it could have been some kind of military aircraft. No telling what high tech stuff we have now(secrectly).

Flashing sequences of lights

Beginning the evening of September 7th I noticed flashing lights in the northern sky to my left. I thought at first it was a plane, but it did not move. It flashed in sequence red, white, blue, then white, blue, red, and again, white, blue, red. This continued through the night. At around 3:00 am I went to bed. On September 8th, around 21:00 again, my son, this time ran in the house and told me to come outside and look, it was the same as the night before with it moving more to the east. It was in a slightly different location than the previous night. I tried to find an astronmer club to see if this was a planet or a star. But noone seems to be able to help me. I am more convinced it was something besides planets or stars because of the continued light sequences. My camera of course would not pick up the image. Tonigt, September 9th, it is gone.

We suspect the star, "Sirius," in the NE sky, at present. PD

beautiful lights?

I was talking to my daughter in the kitchen and my husband was standing at the sink getting a drink of water. He was looking out the window over the sink. For a moment we got quiet and I noticed my husband was in sort of a gaze. The next second he said he had just seen a UFO. I was critical and asked him what exactly he meant by that remark. He had said he saw a light the size of a softball about hundred feet over the top of the neighbors house, hovering. He then said it came towards our house in (specifically near our daughters deck which is on the third floor), stopped and then shot up in the sky and disappeared. I asked him why he didn't say anything at the time and he replied because it was so beautiful he couldn't say anything.

Earlier in the week, we were driving down the street we live on and he said I nearly ran over a deep purple light hovering on the road in front of us. He said it shot up in the air and dissappeared before I hit it. I never saw the light. I asked him why he didn't say anything to me and he said he assumed I saw it in front of us. I didn't.

ET over Rock Island Nuclear Arsenal

It was Saturday of the labor day weekend of 2002 when I was driving from Des Moines to Chicago. As I neared Davenport, I was about 10 miles west, I noticed a small silver object at about 8000 ft in the air, that was straight North of Davenport.

The object was going slow, and then in a burst of speed headed straight South and slowed and stopped somewhere over the Davenport area.

As it slowed, it turned red and had a slight bounce to it. It settled to a stop and continued to glow red. After several seconds it accelerated and headed back North and within a few seconds it was out of sight, also when it accelerated it turned from red and back into a silver object.

This year, 2004, I again went to Chicago for the labor day weekend. I examined the map of the area that I saw this object over and learned that the Rock Island Arsenal is right directly south of Davenport.

Our so called leaders have assured us that we are in danger of a dirty bomb attack, this could be true, and instead of being made in the Mid-east, it might actually be from the Midwest. I have noticed recently reported sightings in Kewanee, Atkinson and Prophetstown Illinois. I think that these higher level beings are marking the locations where we might find the people who are working their hardest to bring about a thermonuclear winter as a way of saying thanks to us for giving them our tax money. I have a website that gives a few thoughts about what this ET intervention is all about.

Spherical object following power lines and sounded like a hot air balloon.

I was at the bottom of Mill Canyon and I saw what looked like a head light of a train. I honestly thought it was a helicopter but when it got closer it made noise that sounded more like a hot air balloon. It was following power lines moving from East to West. It was spherical in shape with ventercated sides. It didn't seem to have thrust.It was more like the light it was emitting was pulling it along its course.

Summary : Traveling northbound on hwy 1 towards Davenport from Santa Cruz I noticed a white circular or round glowing object out the driverside window. It dropped slowly in elevation, stopped and then headed to the southwest at a speed that was incredible. It disappeared within a second of accellerating.

It appeared to be huge. It turned orange collered at its most distant visable location.

Three bright lights in a huge triangle shaped pattern over I-80 moving to the East from Iowa into Illinois

At the time of this event, I was about to enter a doctoral program. My friend, a Ph. D. audiologist, and I were driving East on I-80, between twelve to fifteen miles before our planned exit near the Mississippi River Bridge when we noticed three bright lights in a triangle shaped pattern that extended from 10 degrees above the horizon to 30 degrees above the horizon. The lights were so near, and the pattern so large that I had to lean forward to look up through the windshield glass to see all three at the same time. After watching them for a while, we saw that the stars behind the "triangle" disappeared as the lights moved. The three bright lights seemed very close to us, and we kept remarking at how strange they looked. They moved as a unit with each of the three lights equally distant from the other two. At first they seemed to be moving with traffic, but after some time had gone by, they began to pull ahead of us. Gradually, they moved far enough ahead of us that the pattern was smaller than the rearview mirror, and they appeared to be at less than five degrees above the horizon. Before they (it) pulled completely away from us, I recall seeing a military jet being refueled in the sky and the lights seemed to be nearer to the ground than the two planes engaged in the refueling. We had no scale to measure it, but it seemed to be twenty times the size of the larger plane. Finally, it disappeared in the sky over the East bound highway. We had been so interested in the lights that we missed seeing the Mississippi River (and our exit to the Quad Cities) and ended up about 30 miles into Illinois. We had to find and exit and backtrack 40 miles to Rock Island. Neither of us had seen anything like this before.

On this particular clear sky evening in rural Iowa. I was leaving our farm and goin on a date in town. I was 17 at the time and was going to meet my girlfriend. On the way up the gravel road I happened to notice on my left a light in the sky...not unusual really ecept this one was doing some very odd things...Odd enough for me to slow the car down and take a closer look. Another vehicle coming towards me also slowed down and I could see the people in side looking in the same direction as I as they passed...I stopped and they continued on..as the dust settled from the road I got a much better look at this craft. From my vantage point it was simply a VERY bright light light in the southern sky...it was not all that far off the ground and I noticed it suddenly throw an incredibly bright beam straight down to the ground..I thought then it was just perhaps a police helicopter. What told me different was the incredible flashes of color it suddenly began to give off...first a brilliant green fading into green then blue then yellow...not airplane lights...these were bright and faded from one to another and the speed in which they changed varied ...as I watched this thing..it stopped the beam of light it had in the fields below...and then it swiftly moved to the right....then up and then back down forming a triangle type flight path of about perhaps a mile in length...it was no more than a quarter or a half mile from my viewpoint butI figure but who can tell?....I got out of the car and I couldnt hear any sound from the direction of the object at all. As soon as it made the triangle manuver, it suddenly took off at a speed no conventional craft could attain and went straight to the horizon and disapeered. I had a wonderful view to the horizon and I would say it crossed about 20 miles in less than 5 seconds...I sat in my car amazed and completly happy...I had my first encounter with something I believe wasn't of this earth...and buddy, they got the SPEED!!! Im glad I finally got to tell someone off! iial about it..thank you Mr Davenport
