Bright orb light moving thru the trees and into the sky

I videotaped it moving up thru the trees and up to the sky. It would flash in my direction.Almost blinding me at times. It took 7minutes to come from the middle of the trees to the sky. I zoomed in repeatedly and even showed the sky and stars in comparison, as it was like nothing else in the sky. It appeared round very very large and bright. When I zoomed in you could see objects spinning around it and glowing rainbow like colors at one point when I zoomed in it went to a rectangle shape that is yellowish. When it was in the trees there was no land near it or past it. It was at least 40 to 60 foot above land in the trees, then slowly moves thru the tree line and then above the trees. It eventually went farther up into the sky and got smaller and smaller as if it was moving further away. There was no one around that area and it was just as the sunrise was happening.

My first UFO sighting

I walked outside to let my dog out and looked up in the sky. The sky was dark but I saw a circle/dot that kept moving around. I watched it for a few minutes and realized it wasn’t a plane or a star. I took a video with my phone and tried to zoom in as much as possible.

UAP - 15 bright amber lights flying in formation over Oakley, California

Oakley, California, Saturday, December 19, 2020 @ 22:35 hrs. (Pacific) – An Uber driver traveling east on highway 4 bypass, witnessed 15 bright amber lights flying west in formation at about 1000 feet elevation over the city of Oakley, California.

They were magnificent as they flew in a pattern of a long string of amber lights, one after the other, at close proximity to the driver within a mile away. They came as close as a half mile away.

The string of lights were separated by a trio of lights in a triangular pattern, with 6 lights to the front and 6 lights trailing. All the lights were identical bright amber. There were no red or green directional lights, no red beacons, and no bright landing lights. They kind of had the luminosity of military flares in the night sky. But, these weren't flares, as they were clearly lights. They moved with the behavior of small airplanes. But, if these were planes, why so many, flying in close formation, without directional lights? As the driver turned south on the freeway, they could be seen in the rear view mirror turning to the NW, still in formation. The sighting lasted about 30 seconds.

Can anyone explain what they might have been?

Bright light shined in bedroom window illuminating the room removing shadows before shrinking to a single point and disappearing.

We live in a very remote area in the Uinta Mountains. A bright white light filled our bedroom waking my husband approximately 10 seconds before it woke me. The light got brighter and bigger before shrinking to one point and disappearing. The power went out to our entire canyon for 8 hours. 30 minutes after the light disappeared two military type jets flew low through our canyon traveling West to East. We were both too nervous to be able to go back to sleep.

I was using my telescope to take pictures of the moon, as I was preparing to move and adjust for change in angle, I saw a multi colored light moving into view. I have observed satellites in the past and assumed this was a satellite as well, until I noticed the light was flashing and changing colors, I have never seen anything like it. when I say multi colored it looked like a rainbow at times then seems to go from one color to the next then back to multi colors. It flew from the shadowed face into the light very slowly, then in the light it was still for maybe one second, then moved backward toward a slightly different angle. I tried to follow it but it simply disappeared.

Someone called in on coast to coast open lines and reported seeing what i saw. we both were at the drive in. Small world.

Large square shaped. several cities must of seen this. it was invisible and like breathing it seemed to come in and out of visibility.

Like it was cloaked but i could see it every other second. the middle opened and a triagle shaped ufo came out and flew south then one came out and went north and one more came out and went straight up. i was alone in my backyard.

three yrs ago i went to the drive in, that is also in this same area. during the movie a ufo slowly flew right over our car and the whole drive in. i clearly saw 2 human shaped e t's. my husband said it was my imagination as he saw nothing. i listen to coast to coast radio nightly. thank god for this conformation i recieved and am so grateful for. you see several days afterwards i was listening to friday night open lines. on coast to coast and a man called in. he said he was at the blank drive in. which he did say the name and everything on the radio. he said he was with his wife and brother and sister in law. he began to tell the same thing i saw. he said everything i saw clearly and exactly as i saw it. the same colors and the two "people" in side the large glass window.. i remember george noory saying that their is a military sight . near by.

and that maybe it was a secret testing going on. i tend to agree. because every part of the ufo seem to have worldly parts lights windows and human lookers inside who were clearly wearing masks.

I went outside because I seen two bright lights very low (just above the tree line). I thought it was a low flying passenger jet getting ready to land or crash. It was moving very slow. I was afraid that it was going to crash into the house. The two lights were spread apart about the width of a passenger jet wing span. There were no other visible lights on the aircraft. When it was directly above me it sounded like a jet but it was very quiet (especially since it was so low). My wife was in the bedroom and heard nothing. I was on the phone explaining what I saw and to my niece and she said that she heard it. When it was directly above me I looked up at the bottom. It appeared to be whitish color with no markings. It was much wider than a underbelly of a plane. My original thought was that it was some sort of military transport flying low to avoid radar. Then I realized that there were no other light on it. The two lights looked to be giant spot lights and they seemed to move as if it were searching for something. I cannot explain what it was. Once it went over the house I ran to the other side of the house to look out a window and it was nowhere to be seen. I then rushed outside to look but it was gone.

Addendum: The size of the aircraft approximately 20 moons across from light to light. The size of the bottom appeared to be about three of my fist on my out stretched arm. It was moving south to north and made a slight oblique move to the west. The sighting was just east of Oakley. The craft flew over the Shiawassee river towards me. The time was between 22:10 hrs and 23:00 hrs.

It was completely dark when we were driving home and there were two squarish orange lights above the horizon, but disappeared.

We were driving home heading west and my brother said, "Did you see that?"

I hadn't seen anything so I looked where he said it had been and there was a strange squarish orange light in the sky above the horizon quite a ways and a couple miles down the horizon there was another squarish orange light above the horizon but not quite as high as the other.

He tried to get his camera out but it had disappeared.

We waited a few seconds and it never reappeared.

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Left a trail

The object was an orange light, almost like a flare shot from a flare gun, but it hovered for a couple of seconds then faded out.

I was on my way back from picking my sister up, as she had just returned from a Jr. High track meet. The time was 9:38 PM when I saw the objects (sunset time on day of occurrence:

8:12 PM) I was driving due west down Main Street in Oakley, Idaho, when is saw an orange-red light with a trail following it. The object looked like a flare shot from a flare gun, but this is implausible as there is no civilization in the vicinity of the sighting.

I at first mistook it for a planet, perhaps Mars due to the coloration. It had a similar size and radiance to a bright star. The trail vanished very quickly.

The object was roughly 15 degrees above my eye level, and it rose perfectly vertically, then stopped and hovered, from my perspective, about an inch above the horizon, for 3-4 seconds.

After which it faded out without moving. (While the object was close to the horizon it was unmistakably above the horizon.) I exclaimed and alerted my sister, who was riding in the passenger seat. She looked in time to see an identical object, in the exact same position as the first, rising to the exact same height as the first, fading out to black without moving just as the first had.

While the object was still visible, another object appeared, slightly higher, about 8 inches to the right. They both faded out, in the same order in which they had appeared.

I quickly stopped the car and started the video camera on my smartphone, I videoed for a few minutes but nothing more appeared. I immediately called the UFO hotline, and spoke with the man who answered, while driving west-northwest. We kept a steady eye on the western horizon for the duration of the 9 mile drive home, but no more objects appeared.

Craft over Oakley

The object started out as three bright white lights which seemed at first to be airplane lights but coming my direction. The lights to started moving around up and down but at the same time a bit tilted (to clarify the lights looked as to be connected to each other, not separate objects). Almost as in an airplane doing maneuvers but sideways… It is a bit hard to explain and that is why it caught my eye, I was almost in a trance trying to figure out what was going on. The object then stopped in mid air for about thirty seconds and hovered there. It then began to light up fully in white lights and got very bright for thirty more seconds and steadily moved the opposite direction until it was out of sight. The object was disk shaped when it was fully lit but I could not see the shape previous to that..

My boyfriend and I were on a walk when it happened, I can’t remember the exact time but it was around 8-9pm on January 21st.

I did not hear a sound the entire time the object was in view which was another reason I thought it to be strange seeing as it was close enough to where we should have heard something.

This is my second reporting in the past two months (my last being orange orbs) as well as I have heard two other cases from friends and family seeing orange orbs and a craft like object in Oakley within the same time period…

I would love to know an explanation to these incidences as they seem to be occurring regularly within the past couple of months..

Stepped out on my balcony & looked up to see a silver head of a shovel shaped/ufo object with a blue horse shoe shaped fluorescent tube running on the inside bottom of the craft.

The craft tilted up and seemed to move away in a skimming motion until it was out of sight.

The craft was stationary above our home and moved from the west to east when it left. It left.

It left an errie feeling in my stomach. It's hard to stop thinking about it.

Four red-orange balls of light seen over Oakley, CA.

It was a clear night tonight as I was driving home from work and looked out my window to see four glowing red-orange lights all spaced out from each other; two being lower and two being higher.

I usually look out as I am driving and check out the night sky, so seeing something like this was an unusual sight. They were very far apart and at four different heights.

I arrived at my house and looked outside to see they had moved. The lights seemed to get brighter and dimmer as I viewed them but sporadically like burning orbs. They made no sound. The lights began to hover and move towards each other.

They flickered out and disappeared for five minutes and then mysteriously came into view as quickly as they disappeared.

The four orbs hovered for two minutes and then came close together and made a “Z” like formation. They then moved into a “V” formation and hovered upwards a bit. They flickered out of view after about three minutes of there reappearance.

I made my family come out and watch the orbs with me; there were five of us who witnessed this in total.

Something I really want to emphasize is they were hovering. It did not move like an airplane, balloon, or anything I had seen before. They were four glowing balls of light that had the control to stay in one place or hover whenever they chose as well as maneuver into different formations…. As of now I have no explanation of what they could have possibly been. I have never seen such a thing in my life.

I was leaving my home and in a car with 4 others. I looked up and there was a bright light and almost looking like a fire ball, we stopped and looked there were 6 right behind that one. You could see some of them still for a little bit and then they would start moving very slowly, then disappear. They were as high as a plane maybe even higher and very very bright.

4 uluminated white light spheres the size of a basket balls performed a symmetrical choreographed movement at low level

4 uluminated white light spheres the size of a basket balls performed a symmetrical choreographed movement at a height of appromamately 40 feet above the ground. The area of movement was described as 12'x12'. The opservation was made at a point almost directly under the spheres. The event occured in our front yard 50' from the house. The objects were still present when the wittnesses retreated to the house in fear.

At the exact time and date as noted I recieved a cell phone call from my wife; She described the above phenomenon. I instructed her to terminate the call and use her cell phone camera. Two images were recorded; One motion and one still. During the siting my wife went into the house to get my 13 year old daughter to wittness. My wife stated the 4 spheres followed her as she walked down our driveway. The next day I interviewed my wife and learned the following: The objects produced no sound.

The objects were brightly aluminated and nearly perfect vivid spheres.

There was no beam of light or reflection of light from the ground or adjacent structures.

The following day at approximately 10 AM a late model SUV blue in color stopped in front of our house. The occupant, a caucasian male approximately 60 years of age took several pictures of the area. The location is on a private, easement dead end dirt road. The person did see me observing. The weather was heavy rain and wind. None of the adjacent houses which are on 1 to 3 acre lots are for sale or in default.

The images were taken from an Apple I Phone and will be sent via my e mail address to [email protected]

Bright Starlike Orbs Slowly Move down to 50-100FT. Above Earths Surface Without Sound

We were at the Westwind Drive-In, in Concord, CA, when as we were waiting to have our battery jumped, I had nothing better to do, but to look up at the aircraft that were coming in for a landing, or just taking off, as the drive in is located right next to the small airport, when I noticed two starlike objects that were just hoovering about 200 feet above the earths surface and heard no noise. After getting my vehicle started, I left and entered Hwy. 4, as I got into the slow lane, one of the objects moved down to about 50 feet above the freeway and once again, I heard zero noise and it appeared triangular, with three points and was just one color and extremely bright, white light. Then, as I began to move down the freeway, towards Brentwood, these two lights, moved back up to about 300 feet and began pulsing, and even having flashing red lights, my children were in the car with me and saw it too and began getting scared when we saw the triangular shape and heard no noise whatsoever! These continued to travel down Hwy. 4, until one finally settled, hoovering at around 375 feet, at where appears to be downtown Bethel Island and the other, at about 150 feet above the old farm that is at the end of Sellers Avenue, near Iron House Elementary School. I have seen these things turn into a grey gassy orb as well, but these seem to just go back to being singularly bright and hoovering. I guess besides wondering what these things are, where they came from, and what they want with us, I guess I'm just wondering why the United States Government isn't doing anything about this! I've seen all sorts of videos on You Tube that have these exact things in them all over the world, the videos that are the most puzzling to me though are where NASA astronauts saw these things a long time ago and is being told by Houston to just ignore them. Can these things hurt us? This isn't my families first time seeing them and there really isn't anyone ! to call to report it to, with the exception of the local polic! e, who w ill more than likely think that you're some sort of nut. I've had four adults and one child in my family see them now, that have always believed that besides GOD, that we are alone and did not believe in any sort of aliens! We now know that we are definitely not alone and are beginning to get worried, is anyone else? I feel like I want to start some sort of chapter or something, but am not sure how much good that would do, it doesn't appear as though we would have any sort of defense against these things anyway, if they should become agressive at some point!

Attempted to photograph with zoom digital camera, and even though objected were easily seen in camera’s viewfinder, and zoom is able to enlarge object making it appear to be the size of the moon, the object disappears in photo completely. Second digital camera is able to capture it in a photo (although the zoom is not as close) the object is captured with a motion trail following it in a circular motion.

Objects were then covered by a blanket of strange looking clouds. The clouds looked very unnatural stretching across the width of the sky having a perfect straight edge. When clouds moved out of way, the two bright lights had disappeared.

Three large, glowing, orange lights flying in the night sky in Oakley, California

We saw three fireball colored crafts flying towards us in the night sky. They flew together in a rectangular formation glowing bright amber/orange.

As they flew above our heads the two objects on each side slowly vanished. The single craft continued to fly for approximately 10 seconds more and also just vanished before our eyes.

The most bizarre thing I have ever seen in. I believed in UFO's before to a degree but now.........I absolutely do!

A friend got the beginning of it on tape on his cell phone. Doesn't even begin to describe what we saw with our own eyes!

My friend and I were driving south on Main St in Oakley CA it was 8:25 pm and we saw two flying objects in the sky. One was shaped triangular and the other was oval shaped. They were flying slow at first, then sped up fast perfectly in sync with each other. I said to my friend wait what is that and she replied I was just thinking the same thing. Next I said to her look there are fast blinking lights coming from them. The triangular one appeared as if it was rotating. It was apparent they were not air planes or helicopters. I asked her for her phone and started taking pictures. Then told her to follow them.

They were large about 400 feet in diameter aprox 75 ft from the ground. They were headed north west in the same direction as we were. After five minutes They both went off to the east and higher into the sky. Then they just stopped and hovered there. We pulled over on to the side of the road and took pictures and video. The lights were extremely bright, and white. They stayed there for ten minutes.

I went running off the side of the road to get a closer look and then they started coming closer to us. So I stopped and then the two objects separated into six flying objects. The one shaped as a triangle became three little objects flying. So did the oval shaped object. They were much smaller (maybe 55 ft dia) now and traveling faster. Because they were rotating fast in a triangle shape they appeared as if it was one large object which is not the case. The same goes for the oval object. Then they started moving further away we got back into the car to try and follow them in the opposite direction.

Before they disappeared they were now headed north east. We turned our car around and proceeded that direction looking for them. We have video of our lights and electronics turnig on and off. They were nowhere in site anymore. I looked over and saw a police car just sitting on the side of the road. This was now on E. Cypress and Seller st. I told my friend we have to tell the cop and report this. She said no he will think we are crazy. I said to her he’s facing the direction of the objects maybe he seen them to. She pulled up next to him and I said hello “ Im not crazy or on drugs but did you just see... and he interrupted before I could say another word and he said “ The flying objects in the sky, Yes I did”. He then told us he called Travis air force base to see if they had anything in the air and they told him no. He gave us his card with all his information he was actually the sergeant and then said “ Well if I disappear and am not hear tomorrow make sure you report t! his”. As we were driving off another car pulled over and we overheard them starting to tell him what they saw in the sky.

Large triangular craft over Oakley, Kansas - multiple sightings

I was standing outside having a cigarette at 21:30 24 March 2009, and as I have become accustomed to doing I look directly up. I noticed a large, silent craft in the shape of an equilateral triangle overhead, moving due south. The craft had three white lights, one at each point of the triangle, which did not flash or blink, and one red light in the center of the triangle which flashed like the light of a "normal" aircraft.

The craft was completely silent and left no vapor trail. Although it made no sound, I could "sense" the craft, as though it were somehow silently moving air or altering the pressure around it, much the way you "sense" a person moving behind you even if you don't hear them.

The craft appeared approximately one-half the size of Orion's belt on each side. I am no expert on estimating altitude, but I do not believe it was at commercial aircraft altitude. My best guess is that the craft was maybe three to five times the size of a large commercial aircraft, assuming it was indeed flying comparatively low. If it was at a high altitude, based on observations of hundreds of commercial aircraft during both day and night, it would be dozens of times larger than even the largest commercial aircraft that fly over Kansas.

I also briefly noticed several (didn't get a count) flashing lights, alternating between pale blue, green, and red, along the two front edges of the craft. As it moved over my head, I could no longer see these lights. This is the fourth time I have seen this particular craft (or others just like it) in the past month or so, but this was the first time I noticed the flashing lights along the front edges.

The craft moved at a steady pace without any fluctuation in speed, roughly the observed speed of traditional aircraft. Again, depending on altitude, it was either moving very fast or extraordinarily slowly. The two rear white lights were visible for nearly fifteen minutes as it moved out of sight to the south. In two of the other instances, the craft similarly moved south. In the other instance, the craft was moving due north as it passed over me, then turned northwest (toward and over Colby, by my estimation) before turning due south and disappearing.

During one of the earlier sightings, maybe two weeks prior to the 24 March sighting, I had noticed a number of other odd happenings in the sky, including two very bright lights about five or ten degrees off the southern horizon that flashed on for about two seconds, then slowly dimmed like stadium lights being turned off. These flashed on and off for about two minutes before disappearing outright. I also noticed several larger-than-usual aircraft flying due west over a roughly half-hour period on either side of seeing the triangle, these could have been passenger aircraft but they would have had to be flying lower than usual to appear as large as they did. I was on the phone with a friend during this whole time, and recall relaying to him several oddities that night. No aircraft followed the triangle, but the other oddities happened in a time frame centered on the triangle flying over. I remember commenting on the fact that almost all the other aircraft were moving due west, as usually the aircraft at this time (this sighting was right around 20:30, just before the time change) are moving in various directions and are not as highly concentrated.

I videoed a very bright, what seemed like a star. On video you can see it is white and red light and it zig zags real fast.

I noticed for some evenings now that there is a very bright looking star that you know isn't a star or a plane. It stays in the same area every night. I videoed it and it jumps all over and zig zags and it has a white light and a red light and when it comes closer it turns into a very bright round light. It's so fast, it jumps all over. You can see it jumping vaguely without the video. It's real freaky. I think there are more. I have a good video of it, if you're interested.

I was taking photos of some property in Oakley, UT when I caught this disk shaped object in the sky.

I was out taking photos of some property in Oakley, UT and I noticed a disk shaped saucer in one of the photos that was taken around 15:30 on 4/27/2004. It was kind of blured like it was moving at a very fast speed.



NUFORC Note:

Source forwards photo, which shows blurry object in upper left hand corner of photo. Shape of the object is not inconsistent with a rooster pheasant, or perhaps a chukar partridge, in flight, we believe. We are unsure what the object is. PD

Shape: Light


2 lights merge, then disappear.

First off, I would like to say that I know how planes in the night sky look and behave since I live near local and intl. aiports. But on to what I saw. At around 10pm PST, I was driving due west through Knightsen to Oakley. I was on farming roads, so I had a pretty unobstructed view of what I saw. So, as I'm looking at the West horizon around Mt. Diablo, I see this fairly large orange light that was stationary off in the distance. I keep looking at it while i'm driving, and then a I see a smaller orange light off to the right of the first larger orange, and its making it way towards the bigger light. The smaller light continues to go toward the bigger light until they merge together. The bigger light completely envelops the small one. At this point i'm excited because i've never seen anything like this before. so I keep watching waiting for the smaller light to emerge signifying that it is just an airplane, but it doesnt. at that point trees cut off my vision of the event, and a few minutes later when i regain my viewpoint, the lights are gone. don't what it was. i'm just hoping that someone else might have saw something as well.

Shape:


Anonymous female calls to report sighting of peculiar object on previous evening.

She was driving down highway and witnessed a large, flashing light above her. At first, she thought it was a large jet, but it was "almost floating." The pack of the lights was irregular, quick, and sporadic. They were principally red and white sporadic, flashing lights.

She pulled off the road and witnessed the object change course and pass overhead.

When she arrived home, where she has an open bakc yard, she could see it in the distance.

It was almost ciruclar in shape, but it was flat in front. It was almost as if the front of the object was cut off.


She was frightened by the object, she felt fatigued when she got home, and she went straight to bed.
