Slow-moving orange ball of light observed by 2 adults

Note: Observer is a trained recreational airplane pilot.

While driving in car with wife and infant son at approx. 20:00 heading south on a sparsely populated stretch of road, a bright, solid orange light was observed to the southeast. It appeared to be an aircraft heading toward us with its landing light illuminated, though the light was orange and not the usual white. Also, no green or red navigation lights, anti-collision lights, or rotating beacon was observed, making it immediately peculiar. Altitude was unknown, though if it were a small aircraft, given the apparent size, the estimation would be 3-5,000’.

The car was then stopped to make a more careful observation, at this point the object was no more than 3 miles directly to the east. I alerted my wife who was behind my driver’s seat with the baby, and I rolled both of our windows down so that we each had the same vantage point.

The object appeared very small, though its true distance was difficult to ascertain. It appeared to be a solid ball of orange light, illuminating and extending outward from the leading edge of which was a fan-shaped swath of dimmer orange light that did not appear to be solid. It was in the sky close to the bright, nearly full moon, which was partially visible from behind a broken layer of clouds covering approx. 80% of the sky. The clouds were thin enough to be translucent to the light of the moon.

The object was zig-zagging about very slowly, and was framed through the branches of a tall, bare tree which gave a reference point from which to gauge the object’s speed of movement. As it began to move or rise away to the northeast, it faded into the clouds. I immediately checked the iPhone app ‘FlightRadar24’, which displays a GPS-linked map with the surrounding civilian aircraft that have filed flight plans or are using FAA Flight Following. Military aircraft are not displayed. METAR reports were then checked on the NOAA Aviation Weather Center website for the nearest reporting station not reporting clear skies (KCEF), 23 miles to the south. The report was for a scattered layer of clouds at 12,000’ with a broken layer at 15,000’.

A smartphone video was recorded for approx. 20 seconds, though the details previously mentioned are not as easily observable in the video.

Many dancing orbs across the night sky

On the evening of March 17, 2017, upon arrival home from work, I turned onto Cemetery Road from State Hwy. 206, heading toward my home, when I saw 4 bright white orbs lined up from the mountain in diagonal fashion. Then they suddenly scattered in various directions.

After they disappeared, 2 white orbs, 2 red orbs and 2 gold orbs took their place. The 2 gold orbs took off toward the west. The 2 red orbs took off toward the north. The 2 white orbs remained. The gold and the reds returned. More white orbs spawned from the stationery white orbs.

The new white orbs seemed to bounce along the mountaintop then way up in the sky. They seemed to travel in tandem. At one point 10 white orbs gathered a cluster of 5 pairs above the mountaintop. This went on for several hours with orbs breaking away from a pair or cluster and seemingly dancing across the sky.

Witnessed flashing lights again in same part of sky as previous sighting

On Sunday, 11/29, at about 8 pm we saw and reported a UFO. The same two witnesses saw what appeared to be the same UFO last night, at about 6 pm, in the same part of the sky. This most recent sighting lasted about 2 minutes, and occurred near the northern horizon, which was the only patch of sky clear of clouds.

A bright white light flashed a couple of times to the NNE, attracting our attention. As we had had the previous sighting, I grabbed my binoculars to view this light, which we initially suspected to be an airliner. Instead, I immediately saw that it was the same group of lights or object with several randomly flashing lights. It was dim enough that it was only visible with the binoculars, once the bright white flashing light stopped flashing.

The object moved west, estimated at about 200 mph, then disappeared behind the mountains to the north. These mountains are about 8 miles from our house, and the object appeared to subtend 2 to 3 degrees of horizon. This would give it a width of 1,800', if eight miles away.

It did not have the legally required navigation and anti-collision lights that all aircraft must display during hours of darkness: red navigation light on left wing tip, green on right plus white anti-collision strobes. The object only had randomly flashing lights of various colors.

We are both professionals and have been involved in general aviation and in the airline business for years.

Occurred: 2015-11-28 20:05 Local
Reported: 2015-11-28 20:30 Pacific
Duration: >5 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Montague, CA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

Blinking light which moved slowly, but abruptly, seemed to jump around as it blinked.

Two witnesses saw an odd, blinking white light around 8 pm local time, which moved from the northeast to the north, then it slowly moved out of sight behind the mountains, as if it were traveling north. We had it in view for at least 5 minutes.

We retrieved a pair of 8 power binoculars and continued to watch, seeing a very strange blinking sequence with no discernible pattern, and the light "jumping" around as if it were several objects, or one extremely large one. Distance from viewers to object at least five miles, probably more.

Very clear sky, no clouds, calm winds, the moon is just rising to the east a few minutes after the sighting. The light definitely moved around the sky, and the stars twinkling nearby had a completely different appearance. This light varied in intensity and blinking rate and seemed to change color from white to red when flashing quickly.

Both observers are professionals with college degrees and are private pilots.

Bizzare orangle lights in night sky.

I saw three orange lights in the sky over lake Michigan performing maneuvers not possible by regular aircraft.

This is also not the first time I have seen them. I saw them in early july and then again about a week ago on Mackinac island. Each time my mom has been there to witness them with me.

A bright light hovering silent over a field 150 yards out, it moved over th tracks and was gone.

My friend and i were out on my deck when he saw a glowing orb about 150 yards out above a field south of my house. he then asked me what it was and when i said i didnt know we stood in awe for a few minutes then it slowly floated away to the east. he lives up our road and started to move up it when at the railroad crossing he saw it again.it was about the same 150 yards down the tracks and about 100' off the ground. he called me over and we both stared at it. then we started to run towards it why?, i dont know but we did. it was the brightest thing we've ever seen but it wasn't blinding. the light was reflecting off the rails onto us.it then started to drift around the corner following the tracks. we stopped and watched for a few seconds and then continued to walk to where it was. the air smelt cooked and it was very warm. after that we stayed out all night but it didnt come back.

Fast moving star object over Montague, CA.

I don't know how to use the processor and then put here.

I was at my friend's, it was in the evening. There were no street lights around her house and she kind of lived in like a alley, only house, dead end.

We were out side, and for what ever reason, looked up at the sky. There was what I remember thinking looked like a star, it was moving very fast, at the time we thought faster than a plane.

It was also making all kinds of I'd say designs? The way it was flying, circles and such very fast.

We went and got her dad to see it and he didn't know what it was either.

That was about 48 years ago.
