Shape: Oval
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

I took a picture of the landscaping and sky first picture no object, second picture object.

I was visiting Giant Rock after having gone to the Integratron. While there I took an image of the landscape to include the sky, I walked in between Giant Rock's separate pieces and took two pictures of the landscaping, I then had a physical reaction where I had an intense "pressure" feeling on my third eye. It was so severe that I walked back through the pieces to exit where I had entered, as I exited, I took another picture of the same image I took before I entered Giant Rock and there was an "orb" or "energy vortex" in the sky. I believe it is this object that also gave me the intense pressure sensation on my third eye. Both images were taken at 12:47 PM time stamp on June 18, 2023. I went through all of the images that I took while there and checked for any other photos for the same anomaly but there were none. The object is oval with an outline and there also appears to be a light beam next to it as well. Giant Rock has a history for UFO sightings, has nine ley lines running through it making it a vortex of energy.

Around 3-4am noticed a bright light hovering low on the horizon. Hovered for a few hours before disappearing.

Out in the high dessert camping with some friends. Notice a bright light low on the horizon, way brighter then any of the stars in the sky. The light seemed to form a diamond shape. Once others in the group noticed, we realized the object would wobble back and forth. We thought it was maybe a drone, but there were no blinking lights and the object stayed airborne for hours. All the way till sunrise till it disappeared in to the sky round 8am

On the night of august 30th my boyfriend were sitting outside of our Landers, California, home and we saw two extremely bright flashes that were close to the ground. It was almost as if a wormhole had opened. It happened twice about 30 minutes apart.

Prior to seeing this I noticed something in the sky that was neither a plane nor a meteor.

There was no noise associated with the experience.

Amber UFO Chased by Military Helicopter(s) at Giant Rock 5/21/17 CITD

Shortly after doing a high-vibration meditation, while holding hands in a circle with about 50 others at Giant Rock, CA, an amber craft appeared to the northeast. My wife saw it through night vision goggles, while I had just missed seeing it as I raced over to the others as it disappeared to the northwest behind Spy Mountain.

Within minutes, loud roaring of what sounded like jet engines and a military helicopter came from the east/northeast followed by another a minutes or so later. These then came around the south side of Spy Mountain, heading south, and clearly could see an elongated amber light being followed by a military helicopter with flashing lights. The amber light was not flashing and had no other lights visible.

The amber light sped off to the south and the helicopter could not keep up. This was interesting how we invited them to appear with the meditation, and the first thing that happens is our military chases them.

Large Diamond Shape UFO sighted by a group of 50 people during a UFO sighting at Giant Rock, CA, was chased by a military helicopter.

I was one of the people with night vision goggles to confirm the object. The guide pointed there is a large object, low on the horizon, on the other side of the Giant Rock. We were all gathered at the South side of the Giant Rock, just on the side of the paved area. I had sensed something close by at same time the Guide pointed to the area of sky behind the Giant Rock. The window of view was very narrow, between Giant Rock and the smaller rock at the East side of it.

At that point, I didn't have a NVG on hand, the object was very large, visible to the naked eye. A girl with NVG on hand handed it to me to confirm the object is a UFO as she was new to it and not sure how to use the NVG. I took the NVG and focused it to a clear view as it was blurry at that point.

With NVG now, I observed the object for about 2min, flying West/Southwest towards and behind the Spy Mountain. It had a Diamond shape around it with a round center and a much smaller round darker area! at the 1/3 point from the bottom. It had a very pale orange tint to it at this point.

Soon after it disappeared behind the Spy Mountain, the 2 helicopters showed up from the Northeast side across the valley, and next thing we saw was one of them chasing the UFO going towards South from behind the mountain.

Bright light chased by Military Jet at Giant Rock during Contact in the Desert 2017.

While on a UFO night-watch at Giant Rock with participants attending the Contact in the Desert event, approximately 50 of us gathered to watch the sky and share at least 15 pairs of Generation 3 military goggles provided by the host of the event.

At approximately 10pm, a few people noticed a bright red-orange point of light glowing constantly bright, not blinking and moving from one field of view to another in between the two giant rocks and hills. I and approximately 10 others joined the observers to catch a quick glimpse before it left our field of view.

At this time, for approximately 1-2 minutes, I observed this light through the goggles. The first thing I did was adjust the depth of field in the goggles. The goggles were in focus for high altitude focus, making the stars above look very clear. To view this object up close, I had to lens all the way to the closest depth to see the object clearly.

What I saw during the time the focus was clear was a diamond shape with sides very close to being equal all the way around. I could see definition in the object enough to make out brighter areas in all four corners of the object and once more in the middle. In the spaces in-between, it glowed with less intensity. Once the object was out of view from being behind the rock, I immediately drew what I saw on paper and shared it with the event host.

Approximately one minute after, in the same area we saw the diamond craft fly from left to right in our view, now I saw three aircrafts following the same route. I am aware that military aircraft blink with multiple flashes in quick succession, whereas commercial and personal planes blink once. This is how I came to my conclusion.

Moments after we noticed the above mentioned aircrafts, a large bright light appearing red-orange emerged from over the hill we stood below. The light zoomed quickly over our heads at the height of approximately 1000 ft. I remember noticing that there was no sound coming from the light.

A moment later, following the light, emerged a military jet craft making loud noise as it flew by us. The jet seemed to be chasing the light. The light flew straight towards the hills to our other side, and the jet chased it until they could not be seen with my physical sight.

One of the group participants using his own goggle recorded from his device a video, with no sound, showing the event.

Military jet cases 2 Ufos flying in tandem right above 50 witnesses immediately after an amber diamond shaped craft is sighted

Long Description of Sighting Report Incredible video footage of a military jet chasing a UFO (yeah, that's right, chasing one) right over our heads while out at the infamous Giant Rock in Landers while at this year's Contact in the Desert (CITD) conference in Joshua Tree, Calif. I, Melinda Leslie, was leading my Sunday night, May 21st, Sky Watch with Night Vision Goggle Intensive out at Giant Rock on the 3rd night of viewing events for CITD. Luckily one of my participants, Graham Slater, caught this and many of our other sightings (from all 3 nights no less), with his black and white night vision video camera. His additional footage of some of the other incredible sightings will be posted at a future date once they are compiled.

Here's a description of the jet chase sighting: At just before 10:00 p.m. (did not note exact time) some of my participants and I saw a large amber colored light low to the horizon just behind Giant Rock from where my whole group of about 50 plus people were gathered and using 15 pair of night vision goggles. A contigenecy of about 20 of us ran to get a better view of it. To the naked eye it appeared to be a large orangish (amber) light, that quoting some of the 20 people; "flew like a bumble bee." One guest, [name removed/CMS/jpg], came running with a pair of the goggles in hand and got a good look at it. She said that through the goggles it looked like "a large diamond shaped UFO." She drew a picture of it attached here. This object then flew behind a small hill right behind the entire Sky Watch larger group. As those of us who ran off walked back to join the others, 3 military jets flew over in the direction of the object now gone from sight behind the hill. Some of us commented that "if" "they" were following it, meaning the jets, they were a few minutes too late.

Just then, we heard the sound of a low flying jet from behind the hill, and suddenly clearing the top of the hill and right over our heads, came a very fast military jet chasing a faster large red glowing light. The military jet had both red and white blinking strobe lights and glowing afterburners and was VERY loud as it flew directly above our heads. The large red light had NO blinking lights and NO sound at all! It became clear to all 50 plus witnesses, this was NO jet!!! Those folks present who looked with the aid of the goggles said they were seeing either 2 lights, or one object with 2 light sources on it. After extensive review of the footage, I am nearly certain it shows 2 UFOs (fast moving lights), flying in perfect locked tandem with one another. It appears you can see stars between them in the background suggesting that these are 2 separate objects.

As is usually the case, this footage while incredible, does not do the sighting justice. The video is in black and white night vision, not full-color naked-eye vision, and does not have any sound, so you are unable to hear the palatable excitement of 50 plus witnesses screaming and cheering.

CITD ufo hunters outing - group of over 40 witnesses

On the evening of Sunday, May 21st, multiple ufos were observed by a group of 40+ people visiting at Giant Rock in the Mohave desert. The group was sharing 15 night vision goggles and several laser pointers. I am sharing my experience of the event.

Early on at about 8:00pm, several of us witnessed a bright orb like object moving a straight line then glowed brightly and disappeared. Later a group of three bright orbs moving from west to east at approx. 80 deg. above us from the horizon. I observed it for about 30 deg of travel in the aforementioned direction. I also observed a glowing amber disc-like object, about 5 deg. above the horizon due north towards Area 51 between Giant Rock and another large boulder adjacent to it. The amber object was about the size of my thumb at arms length traveling slowly from east to west parallel to the horizon.

Shortly after the amber object transition behind Giant Rock and was no longer visible maybe 2 min. later a jet ! airplane could be heard coming out of the west. The jet passed over the group from NW to SE direction over the group at approx 70 deg above the southern horizon. In front of the jet (approx. 200 ft) were two red orb like objects. Both the jet and red orbs maintained constant speed and distance.

Someone in the group had a night vision camera and they recorded the event. That video is currently being shared on several Facebook accounts.

Woke up to find a spherical black metallic beach ball sized object hovering above the ground in the room

I was visiting my father in Landers, and planned on staying a few days.

One night I woke up in his spare bedroom, looked down towards my feet and noticed a black metallic sphere hovering a foot or so above the ground, perfectly elevated and very slowly and silently hovering in the direction of the mirror to my right. To my left was a wall with a window.

I'm a very skeptical person, so at first glance I smiled at the thought of a flying black metallic ball in the room, rubbed my eyes, sat up, looked again and it was still in the room continuing in the same manner it had been when I first saw it. It had in fact moved the distance I would have expected it to considering its movement before I looked away to rub my eyes. It was roughly the size of a beach ball and had a smooth metallic surface.

As my mind slowly came to accept that it might be real, I started trying to look for signs that it was in fact real. I noticed the window to my left which had light illuminating from it was reflecting off of the surface of the object, I noticed the object was obstructing the view of the chair that it was in front of and lastly I looked in the mirror that it was floating in the direction of and noticed that it had a reflection in the mirror. At that moment, when I saw it had a reflection, I began to panic. Stricken with fear, I closed my eyes and after a few moments, I looked back and the object was gone.

I do not know what the object was or how long the object had been in the room prior to me waking up, but I get the impression it was observing me as I slept. It gave me the impression that was it purposefully trying to remain unnoticed and discreet due to it's color, size, complete and utter silence and very slow movement. There was enough light in the room where I'm 100% certain what I saw was a legitimate, real and solid object. I could see everything in the room clearly and it seemed to obey with the laws of physics in terms of light reflecting off of it, blocking objects it hovered past and having a reflection. I was not under any sort of sleep paralysis. As I mentioned earlier, I sat up in my bed, rubbed my eyes and was perfectly awake. I have never had a history of hallucinations, and I consider myself a very skeptical and rational person. I'm submitting this report rather late, since I was not aware the UFO Reporting Center existed and everyone else I've reported this to ignored and dismissed me.

I can assure you my account even after all of these years is accurate, as the event you can imagine was rather traumatizing, so I remember it like it was yesterday.

I saw a real something in the sky. Clear as a bell and very interesting

The object was round. It looked as if it was spinning. Silver with flashes of light. Like a ball of spinning mercury. It was hovering over the house on the next rural block. Silent! It was a clear wonderfull morning. The background was the mountains so it shown very clear. This area is well known for activity. It is not the first time I have witnessed activity, but, the most disturbing. This sounds strange, but it noticed me. I noticed it. I felt a bit of mental presure. Sounds crazy I know. I was not scared, just concerned. The object was there for at least 5 min. I had time to call my partner and tell him. At one point it looked as if it was heading my way. This is when I felt the mental presure. My partner yelled at me to get the camera. My dogs had been unusually quiet untill now. All 10 started to howl (I have an informal dog rescue and no we are not trashy people). This is the point it started to head west into the mountains slowly. I went to get the camera and by the time I got it running, the object was gone.

This is stranger. I started to get confused soon after this. I had to stop and center myself. I felt strange. I am a person who is never a victim of life, but I started to get confused and a bit forgetfull, like I wanted to, a bit of mental time slipage? I called my best friend. We talked. I felt fine. I then laid down for a nap with my dogs. I am o.k. I did not lose any time, but I did feel affected. I refuse to let them take me from the light.

In retrospect. I think it was doing something over there. Something happened or an exchange took place, something not very nice. My gut is never wrong. I went over to talk to the neighbors. They refused to talk to me. This is rural desert, so that behavior is not unexpected. This is an area next to Goat Mountain and Giant Rock. The Integratron is not far away and 29 Palms Base is right to the east. The unusual weather, paranormal, and sightings are not uncommon during the year I have been here. I have personally talked to people who have been "abducted" in this area. We also see a lot of orbs as of late. I have been told we will have a quake soon by oldtimers. But, that is an other story.

While I have the stage. I believe something big is going on. That is for sure. To all my friends out there. Hold yourself in the light (I am a Quaker). Center your self. I know people who have been very affected by events such as this and worse. This is our life, our world. Some call it prayer. Whatever, just empower your self. Do not be scared. Bad things are happening, also good too. You are not crazy. Do not be a victim. Best of luck.

Please forgive any grammer and spelling mistakes.

Thank you, DM

My child caught a picture of a craft.

My child took a digital camera into the hills to take pictures of animal life and caught an object on the corner of the camera. Top and bottom are of saucer shape, in the middle is a bright light. There were two of them and my child thought that it was a couple of birds circling each other. The cloud formation was folowing the object that was captured on camera. The clouds, at first, were in a circular motion and dropped into the clouds which then came up through the clouds and headed right behind the object. My child also told me that there was a strange sound coming from the object like a car screaching to a stop, but slightly different. My other child said that the sound was like a high pitch whistle. I will try and send a copy of the photo, but do not really know computers. Hope it makes it.

I Saw a fire ball above a distant hill that appeared cool rather than hot like the Sun

Sorry this took so long to report: I had a cabin near Giant Rock in Landers, CA I would take the teens out to the High Desert to enjoy weekend activities. We were comming home in my van on a dirt road. I looked to what I believe to be N/E at a large hill in the distance. Above that hill floated the object. If you held a quarter at arms length that is how big it appeared. It looked like a round ball of fire with small flames comming off in all directions including straight at the viewer. Every once in a while it would dip behind the hill and then back up. I blew it off at the time as a military flair, but what flair suspends that long a period of time. Here is the clincher. It did not look "HOT" at all it gave off a dull orange color but I did not get the impression of heat or light. Intense light like a flair would make. There was a military base in that direction



((FOLLOW-UP #1 FROM WITNESS))

My error: Landers California. I lived there at the time. Landers is just outside Victorville California. The home of the now defunct F-4 Wild Weasel squadron. Also referenced in the 50's Sci-Fi classic "The Giant Tarantula" they referenced the base in the movie. To paraphrase "they were going to send to
Victorville"(for air support). This was George AFB. I also can add for a reference point that when the town folk tried to blow it up(the tarantula) it was traveling toward Victorville on Highway 247. My sighting was a few miles behind the spider away from the direction it was traveling and far to the left
of the highway. I intent to look at the California map and draw a pretty good location and picture of the sighting. I believe the direction I saw the object was toward "China Lake" military installation. If you know the history of Giant Rock then you know the UFO history of the area. I now live in Mesa, Arizona.

((END #1))

((FOLLOW-UP #2 FROM WITNESS))

Hi Pete should have responded to this before I responded to the other e-mail. It was pitch black outside. It was night time. Not near sundown.

((END #2))

NUFORC Note:

We are attempting to clear up some of the apparent inconsistencies in this report, but the witness has not responded to our queries, yet. He indicates the sighting occurred in Connecticut, but he cites San Bernardino County as being the location. Also, in his personal data, he indicates an address in a town in Canada, which we cannot find on a map. Hence, the report may not be a serious one. The date above is approximate. PD
