Recorded video of a glowing green-white orb over new Costco in Loomis, CA.

Also, doesnt appear to have a silhouette. It disappeared soon after I began filming. In the video, the object is first seen at 17 second mark and disappears about 10 seconds later.

No of observers: 2

Location: Loomis, CA, USA
Location details: Del Oro High School

Shape: Cigar
Explanation: Starlink - Certain
Characteristics: Lights on object

Horizontal String of lights 800-1500 feet up.

At first glance, I though it might be a small passenger plane with all of the windows screens open, but there were no other lights (on wings or tail), and it didn't move like a plane. Moved slowly traveling North. I took my phone out to video it and it then went strait up and lights faded away slowly.

Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 3

Location: Loomis, CA, USA

Shape: Other
Characteristics: Lights on object

Concave object with lights, slowly moving southbound.

I thought it might be a parachute canopy, but it did not descend, and had nothing hanging from it. I put the binoculars on it, and there were intricate lights underneath the concave shape. It moved like a drone, but it was as big as my truck…. Slowly moved south bound. I didn’t see it do anything fantastic.

Duration: 30 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Loomis, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle


I was looking out the kitchen window and my eye caught a huge light flying very low. I continued to watch it and when it flew over the house I was able to see the bottom of it. It seemed to be a triangular craft because the lights I saw on the bottom of the craft were lined triangularly. There were three lights on the bottom of the craft that looked like a triangle. The object was very loud as well. Creepy!

Occurred: 1999-07-07 04:15 Local
Reported: 1999-07-07 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 20 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Loomis, CA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Rapidly moving, hazy lighted object, moving across sky from west to east.

At approximately 0400 hours, I had just returned home from work and wanted to try out my new telescope to view the pre-dawn sky. At approximately 0415 hours, as I was scanning between the moon and Venus in the eastern sky, a hazy, lighted object entered my field of view. I continued to track the object from west to east for approximately 20 seconds. I lost sight of the object while attempting to view it with the naked eye. The object did not appear to ever get any closer to the horizon, as I would expect a satellite to do as it circled the earth.

I have seen UFO,s before but this one really freaked me out.

It was 1;24AM on July,6,1998 when me and my cousins were tring to get to sleep when we saw a large white circulary light pass by our window at a very high rate of speed. Later on the same moring we had found out from other residents that they to had seen the same light near our house that night.

Occurred: 1973-09-15 23:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2005-09-11 00:24 Pacific
Duration: 1 -2 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Loomis, CA, USA

Shape: Light


It looked like a faint star to began with. one that as redish in color, and was just sitting there within a group of other stars that we were viewing.

Suddenly it started moving, slowly then with increased speed. It changed directions a few times then seemed to be accelerating towards earth, because the tiny faint star increased it's level of brightness probably 25 to 50 times in brightness. It then turned and seemed to be gowing away and at an angle to what seemed like the east, then accelerated quickly and suddenly vanished within a short distance in the sky, like a shooting star, but simply could not have been, due to all of the directional changes and starting out so faint and slow.

A very similar event again happened to me in Washington State in the late winter of about 1999. The last time the star that just up and seemed to start moving was one that was due west next to the big dipper.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 59743
Occurred: 1972-06-30 00:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2007-11-10 20:42 Pacific
Duration: Summer of 1972
No of observers: 10

Location: Loomis & Folsom Lake, CA, USA

Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Emitted other objects, Emitted beams, Changed Colo

In the summer of 1972 my family and I witnessed many UFO sightings above and around Folsom Lake, California.

I am 59 years of age now and my two brothers and three sisters still talk about the spring and summer of 1972. I was 23 years old then and my older sister lived on three acres, less than two miles from Folsom Lake. The area she lived in at that time was very wooded and remote.

Many evenings and well into the early morning hours she would phone either me or one of my brothers, excited or even frightened over what she was seeing in her pasture or in the nearby fields. Her horses became restless, dogs barking, and upon looking out from her large living-room window she would see one or more orange objects often glowing bright and then dimming.

Upon her phone calls, my two brothers and I would drive out to her house, often during the middle of the night. Many times we would see the objects before arriving at her house. There is simply too much to relate in this posting, but I will say that what we witnessed during those spring and summer nights of 1972 were without question neither airplanes nor helicopters.

We drove our parents out there on a few occasions and they too were completely baffled as to what these objects were. There were never any sounds coming from the objects. Among a host of reports I could now relate, I will focus upon my two most memorable sightings: 1) Standing outside of our car at the edge of Folsom Lake and observing one or more bright orange objects moving erratically then pausing and hovering motionlessly without a sound. One such object actually shot a high beam or light directly onto the water. It was a very dark moonless night and I remember that we spoke of how easily we could see the ripples of the lake water once the beam of light penetrated the lake. It was so strange since there was absolutely no sound coming from the object. These objects maneuvered, as I say, erratically, often pausing, disappearing, and reappearing almost instantly in another location. At times they would seem to fall and rock from side to side reminding me of a lightweight falling feather.

2) On another memorable occasion we (my brothers and I) drove back out to the Folsom area after receiving a phone call from my sister. This time we were parked atop a bluff on Sierra College Blvd. We witnessed several bright orange objects in the distance. I cannot make any estimates as to how far they were or how high they were; all I can say is that they appeared to be about the size of goftballs from where we were. I recall how truly amazed we were as we witnessed six or seven smaller objects slowly moving toward a large orange object. It appeared to us that as each smaller object neared the larger one they actually disappeared, as if they entered the large object. Not saying that they actually entered the large object, but this is the appearance they gave. As the last smaller object entered or disappeared, suddenly all six or seven smaller objects would reappear and begin the entire process over again. We watched this phenomena repeat itself for nearly an hour as I recall.

I could write several pages on all of the UFO activity that we witnessed in and around Loomis and Folsom Lake during that particular summer long ago. To my knowledge nothing of that magnitude has ever occurred there since that time. No members of my family have ever reported it until now, 35 years later. During that summer we read absolutely nothing in the newspapers of these mysterious orange glowing lights over Folsom Lake. What we saw was certainly not ball lightning, aircraft, swamp gas, meteors, or anything that is easily explained.
