Large unidentifiable aircraft flying. The UFO disappeared on in front of my eyes.

At first sight I thought it was a helicopter low in the sky, traveling south east. Then the UFO quickly descended to the height of a 40 story building. At lower elevation the sphere looked like the size of a bicycle.

The object swiftly fly east towards an apartment building. Then the object descended down towards the building, as I watched it disappeared in front of my eyes.

Possbile UFO Sighting In Marin County California

We (passenger and me) were traveling in an auto, heading west towards Stinson Beach on Panoramic Highway in the vicinity of Mt. Tamalpais State Park. To the left side of the car, shinning down into a valley, appeared three green (light in color) triangular beams of light, each the same proportion.

At first, we believed the lights were coming from a helicopter. However, why were they green and triangular?

After about 10 seconds, I stopped the car and rolled down the car windows. There were no sounds from a helicopter or anything else, only silence. We could not see what was generating the lights because of the overhead trees.

After approximately 10 more seconds, the lights went out. Still no sound, only silence.

We could not explain what it was and joked about it being a UFO. We did not see another car in either direction for the entire 11.4-mile drive.

I DO HAVE ONE OTHER EXPERIENCE WITH SEEING A UFO TRAVELING UP HWY 29 TWO MONTHS AGO AS WELL AS TWO PARENTS OF FRIENDS THAT HAVE SEEN UFO'S OR HAVE MADE CONTACT AROUND HWY 29 AND THE NAPA AREA, THESE PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT NUFORC AND I DO NOT KNOW IF THEY WOULD TALK, but here is another story.

This is an additional report that was not reported this year. The exact day was the second Friday in March of this year(no calendar handy). These craft may have been military technology. The witness in this incident is the same person with me in the 08-31-05 Kentfield report.

Me and my friend were sitting above Pantoll in Muir Woods on Mt. Tam. We had noticed high airline traffic during dusk with jets flying at 10,000 and 30,000ft range traveling north to south which is typical. Two crafts were observed exactly fifteen minutes apart before complete darkness. The first craft was definitely a military jet flying at approximately 60,000 to 70,000 ft leaveing contrails the jet was very quiet but an engine still could be heard and it was painted black. Fifteen minutes later a glowing orange disc was seen on the same exact path as the military jet and was moving at around the same speed which could only be estimated at 2,500 to 3,500 mph. I thought it could have been a test run of the SR-71 and our captured redesigned alien technology at work. This orange craft was slighty higher in altitude and was noiseless and stayed the same color at all different angles and was observed for about 45 seconds.

Note: The craft from the 08-31-05 report was traveling upwards from the ocean and was white/yellow/red verses this craft that was on the same military route and glowing more orange.

Note: The craft from 03-97 was in the upper atmosphere and was traveling north to south along the coast but it was stopping and starting over and over. This craft changed from black(cool to orange to red to white(high speed) and then back to black when it would stop. It did this maybe 20 or 30 times and also had about 30 to 45 seconds of air time before disappearing verses a jet liner that averages 3 to 4 minutes to traverse the sky.

Very high altitude object hovered in the eastern sky at very high altitude. Moved rapidly south and again remained stationary for a few minutes. It was a round shiny object.

It did not look like an airplane and was too high. A weather balloon maybe? Extremely weird.

Duration: 30 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Mill Valley, CA, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

Wedge-shaped group of multiple amber lights enter field of vision of binoculars, dart about, interact with aircraft.

Just after dark I was looking at an aircraft through binoculars as it passed over Mt. Tamalpais. Suddenly, into the field of view from upper right came a rapidly descending wedge-shaped or V-shaped formation of about half a dozen amber orbs or balls of light. They dispersed instantly and then I could see several of them individually darting about in rapid straight-line moves, changing direction radically and instantly by 90 degrees or so. One of them appeared to move upward to where the aircraft was moving along slowly, then zipped away again, though these lights could have been much further away. After a few seconds of these highly unusual movements they disappeared.

I believe them to have either been some US military test of antigravity vehicles or something like that, or they were UFOs.

((FOLLOW-UP COMMUNICATION WITH WITNESS))

Hi, Peter,
Yes, I am sure that the evening of July 18 was when I saw the bizarre phenomena over Mt. Tamalpais here in Marin County, California. I wrote down the basic information the next morning, but the press of other things caused the delay in reporting it to you. (I enjoy hearing you on the Jeff Rense program, and I am really appreciative of the work both of you are doing.)

Some additional background information: The aircraft (assuming it WAS an a/c) that I had cause to look at through binoculars had a (to me) unusual appearance, though possibly explainable. Rather than
the usual landing lights of airliners approaching the Bay Area from the west or northwest, this a/c had one very large, very bright light in front, and a single flashing light on the tail. It seemed to be moving
very slowly. It might have been a helicopter, but night had fallen and it wasn't possible to see its
configuration. I could not determine how close it was or how close were the multiple ufo's that then entered the picture.

The reason I was ready with binoculars when the aircraft appeared was because I had seen another
bizarre-looking phenomenon four nights prior to that, on the 14th. The 18th was the first time I had a
chance to keep my eye on that view of the mountain, since I had had to work late elsewhere the nights of the 15th, 16th, and 17th. On the evening of the 18th I had an intuitive flash to keep an eye on that view, a not unpleasant task, as there was a bright sunset and the mountain was spectacular silhouetted against the sky.

Here are my notes about the July 14th phenomenon, written on the 16th: I did record on tape my immediate impressions of a bizarre phenomenon with a (probable) military aircraft night before last. To try to remember from this distance, as I sit looking out and up at Mount Tamalpais and the western/southwestern sky, the images I saw. There had been an earlier inundation of chemically induced clouds, well-mixed off the coast with available moisture, thus more filled out, less sinewy or webby. It provided for a particularly colorful sunset which in its late stages I was studying through the field glasses for any more tell-tale signs of manmade origin. Just then a silhouetted a/c came into view, seemingly above the eastern flank of the mountain. As it flew over the summit it started emitting illuminations, very flame-like at times [the bluish color of natural gas flame], the likes of which I have never seen nor heard. One of the projections of this luminous material appeared beneath the fuselage. It was very large and had a definite circular shape but it looked three-dimensional, that is, the luminous mass sagged or stretched downward like a huge bubble of light. Then, after various smaller "flickerings," perhaps near the engines, a plume of the luminous material emitted from the tail of the plane, starting small and billowing out into a parachute-shaped light. the plane stopped doing any more of this and seemingly at about the same time altered its course (to port) and left the area. It had a small tail boom.

Has anyone else reported phenomena around here during that period? I am told that there is a MOA (Military Operations Area) off the coast, but I haven't had access to an aeronautical chart to see if the orbs I saw on the 18th could have been in that direction.

Thanks for your interest. Let me know if there is anything else I can do.

Sincerely, ((name deleted))

Strange light above San Francisco Bay

My girlfriend and I noticed a bright light outside her bedroom window at approximately 11:00pm on September 4. The light, about the size of Venus, appeared in the eastern sky, about 25 degrees over the horizon. It flashed white, red, yellow and green. As we watched, the light began bobbing up and down in variants of about 3 degrees from "center" position, then rapidly shifting to a similar left-right motion. It continued doing this for at least 30 minutes. Several planes flew near the light in a north-south direction, likely headed to SF Airport while it was in the sky - this light was far different from the plane lights. We watched until falling asleep.

Silent white light slowly flew over my building.

I was watching TV while laying on the floor and noticed a light from the living room window. My 4 Plex apt was on a hill and overlooked the valley separated by hills that let to the Pacific Ocean. At first I thought it was a helicopter with it's search lights but there was no sound. It hovered just outside of the window maybe 50 above it, then slowly went over our building. I could follow the lights as they seemed to be scanning the hillside behind our building before coming back to the front and just hovering for about 10 seconds. Then it suddenly sped off like shot out of a canon, got just over the distant ridgeline then took and immediate right angle turn, darting behind Mt. Tamalpais. I immediately knew it was a UFO based on the speed and never a sound. I soon after heard rumors that other people saw it but UFO sightings then didn't get much press, especially if you wanted to avoid being laughed at. I was 14 so nobody would listen to me anyways. To my surprise, I cannot find any other documented sightings from that night. Bizarre. I don't recall the exact time, it was night and dark. I found the date by researching the show I was watching.

Clear view of a "flying saucer".

On the night in question, I was on the back deck of my house testing a new telescope mirror on the nearly full moon. I noticed a bright yellow light about a third the size of the moon travelling west to east (overhead) and apparently decending at a steep angle. The color was exactly that of a yellow traffic light, i.e. sodium yellow. There were four red lights, like navigation lights, around the rim; one on the forward side, one at the trailing side and one on the left and right. They were flashing on and off in a clockwise sequence as seen from below. As it decended toward the east it grew larger and disapeared over the roof of my house. I ran through the house, grabbing 7x50 binoculars as I went. Out on the front porch, I steadied the binoculars on the porch railing and looked at the craft, now at tree-top height and no more than a quarter of a mile away. My view-angle was no more than 5 degrees upward. The yellow light was clearly emenating from the bottom of the craft, which was flat and a bit inset. The craft was well-lit by the nearly full moon in very clear weather and appeared smooth and metallic, like new magnesium or aluminum but not polished. No seams or fasteners were visible. The over-all shape was that of a saucer with a dome on top. Over-all diameter appeared to be between 10 and 15 meters, with the dome taking up a third of that. the dome was flat on top and radiused smoothly into the sides, which were flat in cross-section, and had four keystone-shaped windows that I could see from my viewing angle. The sides of the top dome were smoothly radiused into the body of the craft, which curved continuously downward, and rapidly decreased in radius at the edge, curving under to the bottom. There was no haziness at all, and appeared as solid and real as a Cessna 172 flying along. Speed was maybe 50 kph. The interior appeared lit like an office at night, white and bright. No persons were visible, but a white column was in the center of the interior and took up perhaps a quarter to a third of the diameter of the dome, extending (apparently) floor-to-ceiling, and this could have blocked my view of someone on the forward side of the dome. Or it could have been flying on autopilot. Anyone with the technology to build one of these things would be capable of building an autonomous autopilot.

Shape: Light


3 lights appeared, manuevering rapidly and at impossible flight angles, changing formation until winking out after little more than a minute.

The objects were lights at a high altitude (est. 6,000 ft.) They moved in formations which regularly changed, though they were clearly together. They were first observed by this writer; I was 19 at the time, working full time while living at my parents' home. Observing the phenomena with me that night was my girlfriend, age 20, and a family friend, a man in his late 20's. I have reported this information by e-mail to your director's office. I can be contacted by e-mail or regular postal mail.
