Fast moving white ball of light; no trail.

A fast-moving white ball of light appeared out of nowhere. It was as bright as a full moon, however it was small in size. Low in altitude. Moving 25 degrees NE to 115 degrees SE. Before I could get out of my chair to see it as it passed my neighbors home; it was gone. Where I believed it's flight path would follow; it wasn't there. The object made no sound.

I wouldn't quite say crafts but that I would label them objects.

I was laying down on my lawn looking up at the stars and wondering about how nice it would be if the city removed the street lamp from in front of my house that way there wouldn't be that glare interferring with my view of the stars when I saw an unlit object traveling north. At first I thought it was a balloon but it was traveling too fast and too straight for a balloon, plus there was no wind blowing at all for it to be a balloon traveling that fast. I started thinking maybe it was just a rock formation of some sort floating through the sky because surely if it was an aircraft I would have seen some sort of light. It was very faint but I could barely pick it out with my vision and there is no doubt in my mind that it was moving. I called my wife but she couldn't hear me so I decided not to tell her afterall for she might think I was nuts. Plus when my focus returned to the object I could not longer find it in the dark sky. But soon after I saw another (I would say 10 minutes after). I chirped my friend on the Nextel and luckily he was on the line immediately. I chirped him because he is the type of guy who has a telescope for the stars and is all in to aircrafts and knows about Astronomy somewhat. I told him what I had seen and asked him to check the sky. Of course nothing else could be seen for a while until I seen another to the east of where I was at and I couldn't pinpoint the coordinates to him from my house in time for him to see it. Realize that after a minute or so it became lost in the haze of the darkness. I was trying to explain to him to where the object was in relation to certain bright stars but it was difficult to explain since I know nothing of Astronomy. I thought Orion was out and according to him the 3 stars I was looking at was not Orion so we were lost for a while. Until we established two points of reference in the sky the 3 stars which I thought was Orion was the secondpoint and the first point was the brightest star to the East with two faint stars which sort of formed a triangle. So time passed and eventually he had a couple of friends visit him and I could hear them in the background and then like at 10:30ish I saw another object, also traveling north that coincidently was crossing right by the first point of reference which we had established and that was the brightest star to the East of the second point of reference. This one however we both saw. I chirped him on the Nextel and asked him to look at the first reference point and apparently all the guys who were with him also looked up at that exact time and saw what I had been seeing, except this was the fourth one that I had seen and only their first. One of the other guys that was there said immediately that it was a satellite. And they unanimously agreed that it must have been a satellite but I still had my doubts. The fourth one did something different than the first 3. Since the fourth one passed right through my first point of reference (the brightest star)the object seemed to get brighter as it passed right by the point of reference. It seemed to reflect the brightness of that star and as it passed it the darkness began to swallow it up as it again grew fainter and fainter and finally disappeared. We then began a big discussion on satellites and the speed they travel and how many there are as if we knew what we were talking about and to make a long story short I still have my doubts because I could not Identify this object, thus making it a UFO for me. If you could identify it then I guess it will no longer be a UFO but the fact is I saw what I saw.

That's it. I hope my info could help solve other mysteries or clear misconceptions. I just thought I'd write to you.

Occurred: 1952-06-15 23:00 Local

Duration: 3-5 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Maywood, CA, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Left a trail

7 balls of *orange moon* lights in 2 V formations observed for 3 to 5 minutes until all sped off in 7 differen directions

I realize this is not current, however I have never read a like description or heard any reports like what I witnessed.

As I would do on hot summer nights, I climbed onto the slant roof over the patio off the back of our garage to get some cool sleep. I was 12 years old.

Lying there on my back with my eyes looking up over the beautiful sky above I noticed these 7 circular lights about the size of basketballs and yellow/slight orange in color very similar to an orange moon. They were absolutely motionless and in formation. The first group of 3 in a V formation and a bit away was a second group of 4 lights in a V formation with the fourth light on the right wing of the V formation. I was able to watch these lights for the better part of 3 to 5 minutes.

Suddenly, as if on a count, all 7 balls of light sped off in 7 different directions leaving a lighted contrail that lasted maybe another 5 seconds - all 7 lights disappeared - they were gone. If I had to guess at the altitude I would think 30,000 to 40,000 feet Wish I had pictures

I can swear I was not delusional, drunk or having any other stress. I was very relaxed and wide-awake and that’s the end of story.

Location: Maywood, CA, USA

Shape: Disk


1947 UFO sighting Date: ? sometime in early summer Time: after dark (between 7 - 9 pm) Place: Maywood IL not far from O’hare Airbase (now Chicago International airport) just off of Lake St.

I was 11 years old and my family was visiting my uncle and his family. My cousin (age 10) and I were in the front yard just talking. We walked up to the corner at Lake St. and saw what appeared to be a large flat bottom object with a flattened bell shaped top, dark metallic gray and it appeared to be lit only from the the glow of city lights. There were no apparent lights on the craft itself. It was just hanging there in the western sky. We both ran into the house to tell our parents. When they came out, it was gone.

I’ve witnessed other UFOs from time to time in different parts of the country (currently live in California) but don’t bother to report any to "official" agencies as it is a waste of time.
