NUFORC UFO Sighting 175437
Occurred: 2023-04-08 20:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2023-04-21 10:37 Pacific
Duration: At least 1 hr
No of observers: 3

Location: Holt, MI, USA
Location details: Saw hovering over Holt, North and west of our location

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Emitted beams

One craft, started very far in the distance then got closer, 3 lights that seemed to be spinning around like a lighthouse almost.

It started at about 8-8:30 PM. We were on the back porch and noticed a light very far away (about star sized) that seemed to be getting closer. The view was obstructed by trees so we went inside and moved to the front yard. At this point it seemed to be moving closer at a high rate of speed. I thought it may have been a meteor entering the atmosphere. Then it became more visible. It was one craft with what seemed like 3 lights, lined horizontally, all touching. The lights are fixed in a row but seemed to spin around admitting beams, almost like a light house. You could tell when the lights were "pointed" in our direction. There was also a yellowish/greenish aura around the craft. The craft seemed to get closer and closer, with the lights getting larger, but still seemed far away. It was hard to tell, I felt it was far away but could reach us very quickly it it wanted to. We watched it hover in the sky for a while. Hovering up and down, it almost seemed like it's distance was moving closer to us very slowly. But hovering at the same time. We watched this for probably about 10-15 minutes. We went back inside for maybe another 20-30 minutes and decided to venture to the front yard again. The craft was still there in the same spot doing the same as previously described. I took the best quality picture I could as well as a video. You can't see much in the video besides it's light movement. I got spooked at this point and we went back inside for a while. Maybe 30 minutes again. When we finally went out to the back porch again, the light appeared to be very far away (like it was in the beginning, almost looked like it was a moving bright planet). Didn't see anything on the local pages or in the news when checking.

Occurred: 2020-04-29 16:45 Local

Duration: 45 seconds

Location: Holt, FL, USA

Shape: Rectangle
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

Witnessed oblong metallic object sit motionless in sky for 30 seconds before slowly flying away.

Week before last, I was driving through Northern Florida, to Pensacola, on I10. I see this weird metallic object just sitting in the sky.

The more I watched it, I realized it didn't have wings. And it wasn't moving. At all. The thing was literally just sitting in the air. I was telling my mom, over the phone, this was the freakiest thing I've ever seen, and trying to explain how it looked when it suddenly started moving.

It didn't accelerate fast like most ufo videos show, but instead just kind of putt-putted across the sky. I couldn't watch it the entire time because I was driving on the interstate. I took my eyes off of it for a couple seconds but when I looked back, it was gone.

I can only describe this thing as looking completely metallic, with a sort of oblong body and honestly I'd most closely relate it to a train car. I know that sounds stupid but that's the closest similarity I can think of.

The area I was driving from does see regular activity regarding military helicopter fly-overs - it's a pretty secluded small town. But this was not a helicopter, there were no propellers. No anything, it was just sitting there, perfectly still like it was painted onto the sky.

A bright light in the sky came closer and closer to the ground eventually coming down as some kind of flying object

I was driving down Dell Rd. near Lansing, MI, when i saw what appeared to be a bright star in the sky at first. But it was odd because it was mostly cloudy out that night so i just kept watching the object as i was driving. It kept coming closer to the ground so i thought maybe a meteor had came into the atmosphere because it was glowing a yellow-orange color and you could see a trail of light behind it as well. Then, for a moment i passed some near by trees and houses so i lost sight of it for a couple of seconds. After i regained sight of it however it was no longer a bright light in the sky. i could only see the side at this point and it looked like some small aircraft maybe the height of a helicopter. But i knew it wasn't a helicopter after it passed the road down maybe half a mile away from where i was still driving. I could see the back of it after it crossed and at that point i saw the object had no wings and i could hear nothing coming from the object. And these little dim lights completely went around the circumference of it and on the back, there were two bright lights in the shape of a square that little up for only a brief second. I've never been one to believe 100% in things like this but after what i saw that night, there's no doubt that at least there is mysterious aircraft that are nothing like what we fly in today.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 64100
Occurred: 2008-06-23 23:30 Local

Duration: five minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Holt, MO, USA

Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object

Red and white alternate blinking lights, erratic trajectory, high in the sky

I've seen this several times before. It may be a satellite, but it was moving erratically across the sky which I don't know if satellites do. It has red and white blinking lights, possibly on opposite sides of the object, so it makes it a little difficult to tell in which direction it's travelling at ny one point.

After watching carefully this evening, however, the object, which appeared to the south and west of Holt, very high in the sky, was moving in such a jerky and erratic fashion that it drew my attention. It wasn't moving straight at all, but seemed to be moving from side to side in a zig zag pattern, like someone crossing over stepping stones to cross a creek. It moved from SE to NW, then veered off E, then N.

Like I said, I've seen something like this several times before. I usually sit on my back porch in the evening to smoke a cigarette (have a grandbaby in the house, so I don't smoke around her). And NO, I wasn't smoking anything else:-). Anyway, this has begun to puzzle me, so I looked up several key words on the internet, and am surprised there don't seem to be any regular explanations to them. Couldn't it be like a satellite or a surveillance vehicle (not that THAT would be a comfort...)? At one time, I could have sworn I saw one of these blinking red and white light things do a U-turn in the sky, but don't think that's possible, going at that velocity! I see these at least several times a week, so I'm inclined to believe there's a good explanation--I just don't have a clue what it might be. It's so high in the sky, and must be moving so fast to proceed across as it does--I just can't explain how something moving that fast could change course so quickly.

I'd sure appreciate any logical explanation that you could give me. Thanks.
