I saw a bright light shape shifting craft that vanished with zero sound.

At 6:10 I was walking my dog. As we walked toward the parking lot, my dog kept staring in the sky and walked with caution. I didn’t know what was wrong. I had to pick her up because she didn’t want to walk anymore and as I picked her up I saw a bright light reflection in her eye. I turned around and saw an object with different lights blinking in the sky around it at which I thought was a plane since we live close to an airport. However, this object had no sound as it traveled and no exhaust coming out the back but was moving fast. I took out my phone and began to record. When I started recording, the object looked like a plane, then changed to another shape zipped right and left then flash a large light or the illuminating light which was reflected off the clouds changes the object and it then disappeared, again with no sound or exhaust.

6 bright orange lights seen on Monterey Bay, moved slowly & silently, then faded and sped away.

On the evening of Thursday, January 29, 2015, at about 8 P.M., we saw orange lights over Monterey Bay from our oceanfront house in Pacific Grove, CA. The viewing lasted about 15 minutes.

First, two bright orange lights were seen from our window, heading east from the ocean into the Bay. We went out to our balcony to get a better view, and an additional 4 lights in a vertical diamond formation came into sight.

All lights were bright, steady (no flashing), and moving slowly and silently. They were at a low altitude –maybe 200-500’ above the water. The first two lights appeared to come together (possibly one moved in front of the other so that only one was visible…), then, after a few seconds, the(ir) light rapidly moved north across the Bay and faded.

The other 4 lights began to fade as they began to move north. After the orange lights were gone from sight, we could still see tiny dim lights (of red, white, and blue) moving erratically around each other, apparently on the far side of the Bay.

At least two small private planes flew near the lights during our observation. It would be interesting to know the observations of the pilots.

Bright Orange Sphere Seen At Night Over Calif. Coast Line.

An hour or two after dark, I was at the main local beach on the coast line of the Southern end of Monterey Bay. I was out for a typical night time sea shore trail walk which I do off and on.

I was up on a 35 to 40 foot bluff that overlooks this rocky shoreline beach.

It was a fairly clear evening but quite cold, so no one else was down in this area at this time.

While looking out over the Bay I noticed a bright orange object in the sky to the North.

It was moving slowly South and towards me.

I am 61 years old and have lived here for 60 of those years.

I spend much time taking almost daily and many evenings walks down by the our rocky coast line.

I have seen thousands of airplanes and even helicopters come in at night from the North (San Francisco Bay Area ) and South (from the Los Angeles area ). which land at our Monterey Peninsula airport.

I know exactly what these look like (and sound like) at night from far away distances all the way, until they pass over my head and land at our local airport.

This object looked nothing like regular air traffic. It made no noise. It moved very slowly. It went perpendicular to the regular airport landing strip flight paths.

It came right over me. It was quiet while doing so. No engine or other motor noise at all.

It had no small lights or bright landing ones. It was just all bright orange. Its shape was not exact because its bright light distorted this, but I kept thinking I was looking at a Chinese lantern. It was a ball but with what seemed to be a somewhat beveled top and bottom.

I have never seen a UFO and I must say I was a bit uneasy feeling when this passed over me at low altitude (guessing 1,000 feet?) and with no noise. Its bright orange light was the same approaching as it was when it distanced itself after passing over me. Approaching plane lights change once they pass over you.

I figured this glowing orange object had to be the size of a large truck or small bus judging from its size at the altitude I assume it was at. From my ground level vantage point, it was the size of small orange held at arm's length.

Observed 17 small light moving below the moon at 15:20 PST on Saturday 1/23/10.

At approximately 15:20 PST on Saturday 1/23/10, I noticed a small single white light to the lower left of the moon while walking the Del Monte trail in Pacific Grove, CA. I asked my son if he could see it & he said yes, that he thought it was a star, and then I noticed more lights to the right side of the moon & counted a total of 17 lights. I also observed that the lights were moving in small random patterns, some moving what appeared to be very close to each other & eventually they formed something of a line with the left side of the line lower than the right side of the line. Then the left hand side lights began to disappear one by one.

Characteristics: Lights on object

High alltitude V-shape, slow moving

At a very late time at night I was outside my house looking up at an unusually clear night sky when I soon locked my eyes on an object at a VERY high altitude but still had the shape of a mid high airliner so it was obvioulsy of an immense size. The object was a V shape but came to points. The object had faint lights on the tips of the wings and on the front tip. The object moved in a zig-zag path but didnt appear to be making much distance. Soon a friend came and picked me up but I made him pull over so I could point the object out to him. I was able to direct him to the object in the nights sky and sure enough it was stil WAY up there slowly moving in this zig-zag formation making no noise at all. The object was not completly opaque, it had an extremely faint metallic green-blue tint. We were able to watch it for a very very long time so we diceded it wasnt going anywhere soon so we drove to find another place to view it but when we arrived about 10min later it was no longer in the sky. I do not know if this was a black triangle that was distorted by the dark of night or somthing like that. But since it was so high up I was just wondering if anybody else on the coast of california had seen this during the summer of 2004

Occurred: 1999-03-29 20:00 Local
Reported: 1999-03-30 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 4 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Pacific Grove, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Emitted other objects, Aircraft nearby

At 20:00 hours, on March 29, 1999, I was closing my upstairs bedroom window that looks out to the Monterey Bay, I noticed that two stars were starting to move to the Southwest, then turned started to come towards the shore. I grabbed a pair of small binoculars and ran outside on my deck, at that point, to the naked eye, I watched these two sheres, come together and forma a 'Triangle'. I was excited, because I read so much about these type craft. In my sight line, thru the binoculars, I could make out the shape with a white light on both sides and a red type light in the front, I am an ex-pilot and live directly under the flight approach path, for the 'Monterey Peninsula Airport', I know what different aircraft come and go at all times of the day. There was no sound at all, I watched the craft go out over the Bay towards Santa Cruz, Calif. It was heading due North to NW. At about 2 to 3 minutes, another aircraft was in the distance coming towards it, it seemed like a small propeller, private plane. And then there was a normal commercial jet that was over my head about 8,000 feet in the approach path for San Jose International Airport, I could here the regular engine sound as it went over my head. At that time the Triangular Craft had gone out of sight. From the time I viewed it, there was no sound at all and there was no other activity over the Bay that was making any sound at all, except a high tide, with normal ocean noise, (as I live a block from the beach). I did not report any of this to any Police or Airport tower agenccies, as I was excited and at the same time watching the Nat'l College Basketball Game on T.V. I called one friend, who is interested in this type of data, after my sighting. Keep up the good work, as I am always interested in your fine Web Site and continuing coverage on 'Art Bell's radio show. Thank you, have a great day! Ciao, J.F.
