Location: Pasadena, CA, USA
Location details: The object was first seen to the northwest of our location and traveled west in a very slow speed

Shape: Other
Color: Blue green red white
Estimated Size: No idea as it depends on the distance from us
Viewed From: Land
Direction from Viewer: Northwest
Angle of Elevation: 65
Closest Distance: 3 to 5 miles
Estimated Speed: 60 mph
Explanation: Balloon - Probable
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

The object appeared like an ice cream cone shape that was changing colors with very bright lights

I first saw the object at a pretty high altitude and told my wife to look at it, as it was pulsating from white to red to green light and was very bright. We tracked it for a few minutes and noticed that it was traveling west, so it couldn’t be a balloon as the wind usually blows from west to east. As it moved to the west I ran into the house to grab a pair of binoculars to watch it. After a few more minutes I went back inside to get a camera with a telephoto lens to see it even better and to take photos of it. When I blew up the image it was quite amazing to see what it actually looked like. It looked like a snow cone with a string hanging from the base of it. I was dumbfounded by the image and as it moved further away we could no longer see it. As it came straight to the north of us it started moving away from us to the north and disappeared.

NUFORC Note:

The wind can be moving in different directions at different altitudes.

Occurred: 2023-10-24 12:35 Local
Reported: 2023-10-24 17:27 Pacific
Duration: 15 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Pasadena, CA, USA
Location details: Northwest Pasadena looking north toward San Gabriel Mountains

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Emitted other objects

One craft stopped and vanished, a second encircled the area while emitting flares

At the time of the sighting, approximately 12:35pm, the skies were clear with 10-mile visibility conditions. I was, for a second time today, walking laps around my backyard to stretch my sprained left hip muscle, which is why I wasn’t at work. Now what I’m about to write might sound strange but considering this is my fourth or fifth sighting to leave me baffled, I’ve actually come to expect these types of sightings in my every day life. Specifically in the San Gabriel Mountain area near Pasadena I’ve witnessed dozens of craft that may very well be balloons of some sort since most that I see travel extremely slow and reflect the sun’s white light to appear like stars in the middle of the day.

As I paced in my backyard and turned to face the mountains, a dim gray-colored craft flying west to east caught my attention for some reason. It seemed to be at or above 30,000 ft traveling as fast as a plane, but I like to test things now by “transmitting” a telepathic thought out; something along the lines of, “If you can hear me, stop and reverse course.” I then used a helpful technique of finding a nearby tree branch as a reference point to not lose sight of crafts flying through cloudless skies. I followed this first plane-like object with my eyes, taking small steps toward my left to keep it in my sight as it flew eastward. Then it stopped mid-flight and I immediately thought, “Of course, another balloon about to drift in a new direction.” Then for the next 3 to five minutes it remained stationary, and gradually grew so faint that I lost sight of it.
Nothing spectacular, but I’ve learned the hard way that an initial disappearance does not signal the end of the experience. Patience is key. I scanned the same area of the sky for another couple of minutes before a craft reflecting or emitting bright white light at the same altitude and speed of the first came into my view. “Must be a plane,” I thought as it approached the spot where the first craft had vanished. Suddenly the second UAP begins circling that very spot in the sky. I’ve never seen a plane exhibit bird-like behavior and make full tight circles within a few seconds. My immediate thought was, “Nobody will believe this,” since I had left my phone in the house and couldn’t record video. As I became fully aware of what I was witnessing, the circling craft started emitting smaller white flares at different points perpendicular and outward of its circular path. I counted four flares in the first four “orbits” and then it circled for at least another 3 or 4 loops before continuing eastward like a regular plane for one or two minutes before I lost sight of it behind the neighbor’s tree.

Of course, I “transmitted” a message of thanks before I lost sight of it.
I went back inside the house and on my laptop, visited RadarBox.com to look up any possible flight using the playback history feature but nothing stood out to me that matched what I had seen.

I could not make out what was on top but there was 4 spinning disks underneath and each disk was a different color.

I was outside with my dog and herd a loud noise in the sky. When I looked up I saw 4 large disk spinning. Each disk was a different color. Blue, red, white. I never could make out what was above the disk.

It flew over my house. I called for my 2 boys to come outside and see it. I thought it left but it flew back over my house again. As it was getting farther away we saw that things were shooting out of it. It looked like stars with blinking lights on each one.

Then there was a big flash of light and that 4 disc thing was gone but all the blinking things that looked like stars were left behind.

Then the whole sky filled with these blinking things . They were in groups of 3 in a boomerang formation. I counted over 13 sets of 3. I went in the house because my children were scared. After I calmed them down and went back outside all the blinking things were gone

Video of zigzagging light during the day.

At around 3:00pm, I walked outside to take my dog on a walk when I spotted 3 star-like objects over the San Gabriel Mountains moving slowly but something about their movement caught my attention. I had seen similar stationary light sightings frequently during the months leading up, but since these were moving I immediately called for my dad to come outside and observe them as well. By the time he came out and I started to record on my iPhone, there were two lights left. One seemed to hide behind some clouds over the mountains but the last light kept traveling into the clear sky so I decided to record it. I expected it to drift like a balloon, but once I began recording it started zigzagging as if to evade my eyesight. I had on sunglasses which made it hard to see anything on my phone due to the lighting. It was a bright sunny day and my phone screen had a glare under its shadow as I was pointing it directly up over the roof of my house. So I was mostly looking at the light in the sky and only taking occasional glances at my phone screen. I move my phone in an attempt to mimic the movements of the light so as to keep it on the recording screen. The light appears to accelerate and stop suddenly at sharp angles before "disappearing." The moment it disappears, I was actually looking at it in the sky, not my phone screen, but coincidentally, my phone goes out of focus at the same time. When it focuses again, the light reappears, however I had already lost sight of it which is why I stopped recording. Basically, it tricked me into thinking it had vanished or taken off.

Just After midnight February 6, 2022 a flying craft that looked like 4 linked blocks hovered over Pasadena CA, pulsing yellow light, moved a short distance west, hovered again, then traversed west. It was utterly silent. I ran inside to grab my iPhone 8, shot some photos.

It looked like a plane flipping upside down at first. It would glide, then flip over with sporadic bright flashes of LED looking lights (the sun was still shining) that took up half of one side. I saw it flip over again, but this time it was end over end. I couldn't tell what was the top or the bottom. It was in the east sky heading north.

4 orange sphere's over north Los Angeles basin

I work on the corner of Lake Avenue and Cordova in Pasadena, CA. I left work last night about 21:30 and headed North on Lake Avenue to the 210 Freeway entrance. As I neared last stoplight on Lake where the freeway entrance is to go East, I saw a man on the edge of the sidewalk to the right of me (300 block of N. Lake Ave.) with his right arm outstretched toward the West sky, his palm was open. I looked up to the left and saw a group of four round orange lights in a quasi-diamond shape. The lights seemed to be moving slowly and I could tell they were moving in my direction from the west to the east. The lights were definitely unlike anything I have ever seen.

The stoplight turned green and I normally would get on the 210 freeway to go East. Instead, I turned right on a frontage street called Corson and pulled over to look at the lights. Once I stopped, I could see the lights were still moving in my direction but now two of the lights separated from the other two and went straight up then disappeared.

I grabbed my cell phone and took a short video capturing the two remaining lights in the center of the screen. Visually, the two lights looked like they weren’t moving anymore, like they were hovering. I then realized I was parked in a red zone on the side of a street in a not safe place (homeless people, dark area) so I got in my car and headed home, getting on the freeway at the next entrance which is Hill Ave. When I got home, which is about 17 miles east of where I started, I could not see any lights and do not know what happened to them.

At home, I watched the short video and noticed the beginning of the video captured the second of the two lights that went straight up and disappeared.

I noticed the UFO hovering in midair and thought it was a balloon. On further inspection I saw that it was not in fact a balloon, but a plane-like shape. The object hovered in midair for a few seconds longer and then started to slowly fly away. It was moving much slower than a plane would. The object continued in the same direction and eventually moved out of sight behind a tree.

Observed at least 36 bright white illuminated moving objects in a straight but highly irregular spaced line moving from SW to NE.

On 03/26/2020 I observed at least 36 spherical brightly illuminated objects in a very straight line moving across the sky (approx from 240 degrees to approximately 60 degrees) at approximately 0545. THEY WERE ALL MOVING AT THE SAME SPEED BUT VERY IRREGULARLY SPACED, SOME IN CLOSE GROUPS FOLLOWED BY OTHERS. I had a somewhat obstructed view and my phone was in the house but it was a very strange and unexplainable sighting. They were not planes and there were no blinking lights that I could see. They were spaced irregularly but absolutely in a straight line. For someone who had a 180 unobstructed view it had to be much more striking,they probably saw a broken straight line from 240 degrees to 60 degrees. I have seen what I believe are satellites that look similar but there is no way there could be that many satellites in the same line at approximately the same time in my opinion. I reside close to Baltimore Washington Airport and there was 1 plane preparing to ! land and at that time of the morning I'm sure there were some preparing to take off. I believe this will be a well documented sighting as it lasted a long time, the sky was clear, visibility at ground level was excellent, no moon and lots of unusual and bright movement. Many people would be going to work even though COVID19 has caused a limited the number of cars on the road. I HAVE NEVER BEEN EXCITED ENOUGH TO REPORT ANYTHING IN THE PAST. I would like to know what happened and how many other observers there were. I don't want to be put on e-mail list that would sink a battle ship.

Slow white spheres almost like stars during the day

I was outside in the backyard with my kids this past Sunday when I saw these white spheres floating across the sky. Probably balloons...but looked pretty cool almost like slow moving stars during the day… They seemed to be moving against the wind but who knows...hoping you could share! Thanks!

Moving Star (white dot) vanished with orange flash

I was watching the fireworks with my 6 year old son. I looked away from the fireworks and up at the stars around me. Suddenly one of the stars started moving at a odd angle and a fast rate of speed. After about 2 minutes the object dimmed out and I saw a dark orange flash around the area it dimmed. After that i could not find it in the sky anymore. I noticed after it disappeared that there was a airplane following the path that the object took.

Black rotating or shape shifting object sores through clear day sky.

I noticed this black three dimensional object floating across the sky. There was zero clouds in the sky, and it was right before dusk. The object was very clear to see, about 100% visibility.

It looked triangl-er in shape at first, but with flat edges connecting it, not points like a regular triangle. It seemed to be rotating at a constant pace. Either that, or it was shape shifting.

It was moving pretty slow, felt like 5mph. It had to be about 300-500 feet in the air, could be more. The object seemed to resemble the size of a large storage truck, could’ve been bigger. The object made zero sound, and had no lights on it. It was definitely too big to be a drone, and kept it’s pace until I was unable to see it anymore. From where I first saw it, to where I couldn’t see it at all, would make me believe it was not being controlled by a remote from the ground.

I was only able to capture this on my mobile phone device (13MP Camera), which isn’t capable of shooting great quality video from that far away. I was fortunate to even capture what I captured.

Six UFO’s in Pasadena CA

My cousin went outside to throw away the trash after we finished eating breakfast. He then returns and tells everyone that their are UFO’s outside. I thought he was joking but his wife went outside to look first my wife followed and then my kids and I followed. I looked up and in the sky I saw shiny dots in the sky. I observed the objects and then returned inside to get my iPhone to document what I saw.

I called my sister and told her what I saw and I tried to face time her so she could witness the UFO’s that I was looking at. The face time did not work because they were to far up and I could not zoom in. I texted her the photos and videos I took on my phone.

We continued watching the objects for 15 minutes or so. Everyone else went back inside and I continued watching the UFO’s.

I then walked for a block to catch a Pokémon and when I looked up I did not see the UFO’s. As I walked back to my cousin's house, I then saw a father who was looking after his son who was riding a bike. I told him what I saw and I showed him the pictures and Videos I took. I then started walking back inside my cousin's house, and I saw the UFO’s, so I ran to the Man with his son and asked if they wanted to see the object I saw. They said yes. We walked closer to the house and looked up and showed them. I asked if they looked like drones. He replied, “No Way”. I observed planes in the air and compares them to what I saw and the objects were much higher. The objects seemed to hover and remain still. One was slowly moving as the others remained still.

My wife and two kids were hanging out by the pool and I joined them. I only sat outside with my wife as the kids were playing in the pool. I continued to look at the sky and could only observe one UFO. The UFO eventually was so far up in the sky I could no longer see it.

I was able to observe the UFO’s for close to an hour. I did not know who to call so I looked up the UFO hotline online on my phone. I left a message and received a call back and I then wrote down what I observed and filled out this report. Take a look at the videos and pictures for reference.

Thanks, ((name deleted))

We spoke via telephone with the witness, and found him to be well-spoken, and seemingly quite serious-minded. He has forwarded four photos and videos to NUFORC, which we plan to post, together with this report. PD

4 circular lights in early afternoon.

There have been a lot of birds in the sky today feeding on the palm trees in my yard so I've been looking up a lot.

I saw four circling- what I believed to be Birds initially -flying super high in the sky- much higher than I've seen birds fly and they were curious to me as they were white.

As I looked at them, they seemed to start reflecting light-brightly. My "white birds" seemed to have silver underbellies. They were moving circularly initially and then broke into a Southeast Direction and as they got closer to me I could see that they were dispersing the air circularly around them. It was very faint but our air is totally dirty today and cloudless. The air dispersment was visible through their entire movement South East. The closer they got to me it became clear that they were not reflecting light as much as they were pulsing out a light.

Their Southeast motion was like a regular flight-i mean to say they weren't circling.

It happened so fast I wonder if anyone else saw it?

Very bright no sound shaped like a triangle

I looked out my living room atrium doors. Over the Patapsco River, entering into the Chesapeake Bay, I saw what appeared to be the brightest star I ever seen. I watched it and it slowly moved toward my house. The light then turned at Fort Smallwood Park and went over my home. When I looked up, it was a triangle shape with brown underneath with one bright bright light on the back. It seemed to moved very smooth. There was no sound what so ever. It looked like the size of an airplane.

Bright flashing light moving slow across sky. Accompanied by many dimmer lights

Sitting in backyard with dog. Saw a star-like light flash and then go out.

Wasn't sure if I really saw it so continued to watch. The light flashed again and again. Moving slowly across sky. Light would flash bright for approx. 1 second, then go out.

Light would remain out for approx. 10-15 seconds. Moved east right over us then shifted more north east.

Other smaller orb-ish dim lights around it moving in all directions. Wish I could describe it better. Went into the distance and couldn't see it anymore.

My father watched this with me and saw the same thing.

Odd lights in sky over South Pasadena Florida.

At 12:05 am on Tuesday March 15, 2016, we spotted 4 bright orange lights in a diamond formation in the sky over Pasadena Isle, Florida. They were silent and moved slowly in a northerly direction.

I took two pictures of them with my cell phone. The objects had already passed overhead when I took the photos, so they appear much dimmer.

We are husband and wife, Caucasian and in our early seventies.

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Left a trail

Bright, star-like object traveled slowly across very large portion of sky, leaving green/teal glowing streak and hazy cone of light behind.

An small, star-like object (possibly a rocket?) was seen traveling slowly accross the southwest portion of the sky. It had a very large, bright, glowing cone of light trailing behind it that faded after a few minutes. There was also a long, thick, greenish-teal streak that trailed behind it. After the light cone faded away, the object continued to travel northwest while the green streak grew shorter until it looked like a large glowing oval-shaped ball left behind, until it, too, faded. The star-like object continued to travel northwest until it became blurry and dim. It got lower in the sky and disappeared. This all took place in the span of about 10 minutes and was observed from Pasadena, California, on 11/7/15 at about 6:00PM.

Object entered the atmosphere and then moved slowly towards the west

Me and my two boys watched something enter the atmosphere from SW sky. You could see a bright dot and then a cone form behind until it was within the atmosphere. The cone turned into t rail that was blue-green in color. We then watched whatever it was move slowly towards the West until we lost visual sight of it. Its entry was so bright it could not be missed. It could have been anything but most stuff I am aware of burns up on entry, not come in and then slowly float away. I did not have my phone with me, I was in the center of our condo complex to take out the garbage.

12 objects, with reddish orange lights, low in the cloudy sky on Christmas Eve

What we saw on Christmas Eve: It started with two reddish orange lights, side by side, moving low across the cloudy night sky. The objects were moving from southwest to northeast. They were well below the clouds and they made no sounds.

As we stood watching those two, 6 more appeared behind them, flying in what appeared to be a Z formation. The lights were the same color on them. As we watched those move across the sky, two more appeared behind the Z formation.

These were seen from the front of the house and we went out on the deck in back of the house and spotted two more, following a different path of the 10 others, a little further to the north. These two disappeared into the cloud cover after passing over the house.

Could possibly have been drones, but there were so many of them.

Duration: 30-45 seconds


Location: Pasadena, MD, USA

Shape: Rectangle


U.F.O . Report 8-22-14 4:22 Am, at the Red Light Ritchie Hwy & Jumpers Hole rd. Take exit onto Md. Rt. 100 proceed aprox. 1 mile. 4:24 am see what appears to be Jet landing at B.W.I. Airport, which is about 3 miles up ahead. Realize it is a large plane coming towards me, straight down the center of Rt. 100 Medium size plane much bigger than Piper cub , figured it was a Cargo plane. Flying much lower than any plane I have ever seen that wasn’t coming in for a landing. Since its flying directly at me, I figured I would get a good look to see what kinda plane this is. It's very dark with thick cloud cover, no stars or moonlight. As it approached rather quickly, what I saw was a huge Rectangle with Qty : 4 large red and green lights. Much bigger than traffic lights, I assume as big or bigger than sewer caps. Vividly clear green on front right and back left, and red on front left and back right.

I was simply Marveling at this technology as these lights had lumins/intensity of traffic signals but emitted no glare, aura, did not radiate downward or illuminate the craft at all. Were not convex or concave but completely flat.. diffused light that had no bright spots, light was evenly emitted so as just one perfectly round flat, I thought landing lights. Strange that the road as far as I could see in front and behind me was completely empty with the exception of one car behind me about 2 car lengths. As it got close I was leaning forward on the steering wheel looking almost straight up at the underneath of the vehicle. Could only see a giant rectangle. Could see no outline of an object, plane, helicopter. Seemed to be only couple hundred feet above me. The one thought I was having is that this couldn’t be a plane, the rectangle way too wide for a fuselage of a plane. At that point it turned clockwise 280 degrees and made a right turn as I am looking at it in 0.5 seconds. If one was to count out loud “one thousand one”, being one second. The object spun on an axis completely around by the time you get; one thous out of your mouth. “And one” the second half of the word, the object had moved right turn 90 degrees and never changed or altered acceleration. 92 degrees actually.

By this time the object would be passing over top of my truck and I had to look thru the moon roof. Where I could see it was actually traveling at a slight different angle now that I had a 3rd reference point, my truck roof. Making a maneuver of 270 degrees plus, there was forward momentum to take into account. When looking skyward seeing only dark and a rectangle I saw a perfect right turn , but looking thru the moonroof it had turned right but was still sliding a bit forward at the same time, thus explaining the slightly more than a 90 degree turn it made would compensate for the forward momentum after a few seconds, and put it exactly on course. What was the rear of the vehicle, is now the front of the vehicle headed to my! right at 90 degrees. So it's like polarity in the propulsion system had been switched simultaneously. Of course at this point my mind going into Shock was thinking only one thing.

What did I just see? This is certainly not possible,, could this have been a helicopter. A helicopter could have easily fit inside this rectangle and couldn’t do a maneuver that quick that precise even if it were hovering.

It made no sound at all, seemed to be about 300 ft high and must have been cloaked to imitate the sky color as I never was able to make out any object or shape other than a crystal clear rectangle of spectacular lights. Always dreamed of being lucky enough to see a flying saucer or something. Never in my wildest dreams thought I would see something like this practically in my face. The figure was exact shape of a football field. I could fit my house and garage inside its length. I figure the object was 80 to 150 ft long and 40 or 60 ft wide.

This is a shortened version of what I saw and the calculations. Would love to talk to someone futher about this incident.

Three UFOs seen in Maryland 8:12pm est two orange glowing orb shapped one cigar shaped

Driving back to work after making a delivery I saw 3 UFO’s. Two were south east of me. They were one orange glowing ball shaped light and the other was a little different. It was also a light but wasn’t just one glowing ball, I can’t quite remember how to precisely describe that one. It was more like a cigar shape maybe. Both were close to each other and appeared to be hovering or slowly descending a few hundred feet to a few thousand feet in the air approximately a mile to a few miles away from me over what I would guess to be near Gibson Island or so. The third one was another orange glowing ball or orb shape at approximately the same height and hovering or descending in a similar manner. It was to the east of me. If I had to guess I would place it near Curtis bay area or Dundalk. Saw for approximately one minute until there were below the tree line and no longer in sight and I had to drive back to work.

Two orange glowing lights appeared hovering and slowly descending

Two bright orange lights were seen hovering near each other at at or around the same altitude. They appeared to be spherical but not sure. They were very low and slowly descending. At first I thought they were like those Chinese lanterns but they were slowly going down and were too big and bright and they weren’t twinkling like a fire would have appeared. They kept solidly lit(idk how else to put that but I think you know what I mean). I would estimate they were above somewhere between Bodkin point and Gibson Island because they were to the east or south east of where I was which was Edwin Raynor Blvd heading south. They were close to each other and slowly descended until they were below the horizon of the trees in front of me. Surely other people must have seen this. Time seen was 8:55 pm est and my location was Edwin raynor Blvd and the objects were in front of me and to the left which would put them south east of me since I was heading south.

6 balls of orange-red lights hovering over Mt. Wilson near San Gabriel Valley.

Leaving driveway in car, stopped completely and got out of car when I noticed what appeared to be 6 slowly moving objects..orange-red balls of lights out in front/over the San Gabriel mountain range near Mt. Wilson (directly Northeast).

I've watched the sky like any normal person would over my lifetime and this stopped me dead in my tracks. Absolutely not helicoptors, planes, etc.

They flickered, hovered, pulsated and were slowly rising upwards together...changing positions slightly as they rose, then one by one appeared to just disinitegrate...or fizzle out of sight.

As huge as these lights were, I am hard-pressed to believe NOBODY ELSE IN ALL OF LOS ANGELES SAW THEM. I can't find any other report.

Please reply if you saw this or have an explanation~

Orange object with white streaks observed near BWI airport.

On Sunday 10/13 at approximately 1945 Hrs. We observed what appeared to be a fire ball in the sky traveling at the same speed as an airplane. The fireball was bright orange and had two white streaks behind it. We live approximately 10 miles from BWI airport and the object was lower than planes which were in the area. The ball was descending in an approximate 20% decline and was traveling from west to east.

As the orange ball passed our location and came upon a tree line we could see a large plume of smoke in the sky and the object was no longer observed. The smoke just dropped stright down in a denseness that almost looked like a black parachute coming down to the ground. The object made no sound whatsoeve and was smaller than a large passenger carrier but larger than a military jet.

The object was observed by two ther neighbors and one was actually able to take a picture for which I am trying to retrieve and email same.

Swarm of unidentified objects over Pasadena, CA.

My son looked up and pointed out that an airplane was standing still. I looked up to see that one but then saw a small cluster swarm of around 11 of them at what looked like approximately 3,000 feet up. They all looked like whitish dots moving in a circular pattern. I took my eyes off of them briefly and really had to look hard to see them again in the same area of the sky flying in the same pattern again.

After about 15 minutes they collected closer together and sped off at a faster speed in a Northwestern direction, true North. The cluster behavior resembled that of a flock of birds, like hawks or something just moving in a circular pattern.

It's when they collected together and sped off that they moved faster than what birds could possibly maintain. No birds I am aware of move that fast. There was no sound.

I have waited to see if anyone else has reported anything and have not heard or seen anything on media or online. I have never reported things like this online but what was seen was intriguing, I was checking out if anyone reported something to online media, I found this site and decided to post it.

Although I had an iPhone, the optics would not have been good enough to catch what was seen.

Hovering red orb disappears then reappears as grey-white oval before disappearing again.

It was very creepy indeed. First saw the red glowing orb (very dark red with like a halo around it) looking east. Then the red orb disappeared, like GONE where did it go? Then after staring at the same direction for a few minutes, another greyish-white object came diagonally down from north to south and toward the horizon before I lost sight of it. Mind you, this grey-white object was NOT illuminated at all.

extremely powerful flash of pure white light that filled the entire sky and illuminated all surrounding areas. No lightning or storms present that nighr.

One flash that was similar to a mega camera flash or some sort of energy bomb that lasted an entire second and was followed by a smaller flash around a bright white ball that quickly shot up into the sky.

I have seen many storms throughout my life but this was completely un-natural and completely unexplainable... I would compare the energy released to the first light emmitted from an atom bomb.

A disk shaped object hovering in one spot over Pasadena, CA while da lit up bottom of object was circling while top of it wasn't moving

On July 4, 2012 at approximately 10:20 p.m. my boyfriend and I were driving on the 210 east freeway in Pasadena, CA heading toward the 134 west when my boyfriend and I spotted an unusual object in the sky. We were looking southeast and we saw it for about one minute. We could have seen it longer but we were on the freeway so we had to pass it because we couldn’t stop, so I do not know how much time it was hovering in the sky.

The object we saw was disk shaped with lights on the outer rim, and then a few feet above the disk was just a light which was the tip top of the object. This was all one ship but the body of it that led to the light at the tip top did not have lights. The disk with the lights on the outer rim was spinning in a circle constantly while the body and light at the very top was not moving. The whole entire object was hovering in one spot. The color of the lights was slightly orange.

A disk shaped ufo with several lights and one single light on top hovering over Pasadena, CA

On July 4, 2012 at approximately 10:20 p.m. I was driving on the 210 east freeway. I spotted lights so I look up in the sky to see if it is a plane or something. I looked again and I noticed it was still there just hovering. At that point I yelled at my girlfriend, “It’s a fucking UFO!” Then my girlfriend saw it as well and confirmed that it must have been a UFO. I wanted to take a picture so I decided to pull over on the freeway but unfortunately there were trees blocking the object. We proceeded to continue on the freeway and it was still there hovering up and down.

It was a disk shaped with lights and a single light on top. The lights were slightly orange. The disk part was circling while the entire object was in one spot. I saw it for about 1 minute because I was on the freeway but it was there longer.

Characteristics: Lights on object

I saw a triangle as I was playing in my yard

I was playing with a inflatable beach ball in my backyard when I was 10 in 2012, and then I looked up at the sky in the northern direction and there was a distant triangle just sitting there about 100-500 feet off the ground.. It was in the shape of a triangle and the color was black. I could see that it had multiple lights on it. There was only 1 visible triangle. So I ran inside freaking out and I got my father. When he went outside, It was completely gone! There wasn’t even a trail that it could make as the weather was sunny. Then, I never saw the triangle again.

Two orange bright circular objects kept going back and forth in the sky, then disappeared, when the clock hit 12 and it was new years.

Me and my friend were walking home, right before it hit new years. I had asked ly friend what time it was and he said it was 11:53 as i remember. We were walking up the street, he was texting, i was looking up at the sky wanderuosly and noticed a bright orange circular light. I screamed at my friend "look! Look!" And pointed to it, he ignored me and kept texting. I looked back up and another one appeared and kept moving closer then went back real fast, I then ran to him and turned him around and said "look!" And pointed again. His face changed to a lost expression and he asked "what is that?" And I said idk I think it might be a meteor, it was really bright and getting closer, the other one stayed in place. We tried to run (thinking it was a meteor striking earth) and kept looking at it. I noticed one of the lights got dimmer, and it was any airplane or meteor. It looked like a cell, only the dot in the center was red and the shell around it was orange, afte! r getting dim they both disappeared out of nowhere. The most strange part about this is that right when they disappeared we heard a bunch of people screaming "happy new years!" As if they disappeared right when it went from 2011 to 2012

On the morning of 10/18 /11 between 600 & 630 hrs I saw a bright object shoot across the sky. The object was much larger than a star, was very bright and had no color and had no tail like a comet. It did not move as fast as a shooting star. I observed the object at about a 60 degree angle moving in a SSE direction. Due to large tree I could only see the object for 1 or 2 seconds.

BLUE FLASHES, LIEK CAMERA STROBE, IN PASADENA SKY EARLY TUES.AM/3:30AM/8.30.11

Very early on the morning of 8.30.11, around 3:35am, I saw the same flashes someone in New Carrollton MD saw back on 6.24.11 at 3:00AM. What struck me is that the individual who posted their description saw word for word exactly what I saw. That person wrote: “Set of sky flashes lit up entire sky with out any radar anomaly or storm...It looked like the whole sky took a picture, for what seemed like seconds there were two sets of flashes with a pause between the two….There was no sound or bolts of lightning, nothing on the radar, just looked like someone with a really huge planet sized camera took a picture of our planet with flash….flash was bluish- white and looked exactly like a camera flash…”<- Okay, the only difference in that person’s experience and mine is that after I saw the blue flashes, there was a very brief red flash, just one, but it was almost as bright as the blue flashes. This is not he first time I’ve seen anomalies in that area of the sky he! re in Pasadena; this is the 4th time in 5 years we’ve lived here that other-worldly objects make themselves seen to us. We’ve also seen the same red/orange orbs someone else here in MD described, floating down our street moments after a terrible electric storm in June 2010. My husband had the presence of mind to grab the camera and have me take pictures. I chased them down the street until they floated up over the tree line and out over the waters of Stony Creek. In any event, the encounters have been more frequent and varied, i.e., we’ve not been limited to just one type of experience since moving to Pasadena, and after seeing those huge flashes in the sky last night, I can honestly say I’m uneasy and really want to take the photos to an expert and have them analyzed, but I don’t know to whom I should forward the photos. I didn’t get a photo of the flashes last night, but I have plenty of the other photos….

Unexplainable extra large smokey full moon disappears into thin air .

At approximatively 3:45 am my friend was dropping me off to my house when I spotted just barely showing over the houses what appeared to be a very large strange full moon. It and surrounded by smoke and looked unusually big so we drove further down my neighborhood to see it.

As we found it over the water but still very low and very large we had thought it was the coolest moon we have ever seen so we left my neighborhood to go to a spot we would be able to see it better for a picture. We were never able to find it. We looked everywhere in every direction. not even 15 minutes had gone by so we decided to go back towards my house to take a picture from there and when we got back there was absolutely nothing there, The weirdest part about it all is that there was no moon in the sky at all. ANYWHERE! We were completely overwhelmed with fear. There was and long streak in the sky that stretched across the the whole sky in a straight line.

White Glowing Object Changing Shape Over Pasadena, CA

I went into our back yard and glanced up and saw a slow moving white object. I went back in the house and got my camera and a pair of binoculars. The object was still there when I came back and it was moving slowly in a NE direction. I figured it was a weather balloon, but decided to watch it anyway. The sphere, or circle was white and had a glow. It moved slowly for another minute and then...stopped. The sphere remained stopped for about 15 minutes in the same spot, so I had plenty of time to get photos with my digital camera(I realized it could not be a balloon since the wind would have moved it along).The object also appeared to change shape or wobble. The object was a few miles away so the shots were taken by using the zoom on my camera. There was no sound and the sphere appeared to be about 8,000 feet up. The object then changed direction and moved slowly going south and out of distance. I have two pictures. One is of the glowing sphere/circle and the o! ther shot I did not see with the naked eye. But my digital camera picked it up. I think as the object was changing shape, my camera caught some type of morphing or energy field in between the diffferent shapes? The sky was completely clear -- no clouds and bright blue sky.

Triangle formation in the sky with two globes to the right of the triangle.

I was sitting in our backyard at 5 p.m. looking up to the sky for birdwatching and noticed a huge formation way up in the sky. Crystal clear day. There were three round globes that formed a triangle. Next to it on the right of the triangle were two round globes that were reddish and glowing. This was mostly stationery, but the two globes to the right of the triangle seemed to move a little. Watched for about 30 seconds and then went to get my camera, turned back instead and saw that the formation was gone. I got my binoculars and looked for it, but it had vanished.

I saw a UFO with a wired shape object that keept keeping changing forms in the sky. I took sevral pictures of the UFO and the object that was with it.

Chevron shaped object zips through Pasadena sky at 19:00 hrs.

I saw a very large lit craft quickly streak through the sky. It was sort of shimmering but it was traveling very quickly in a horizontal fashion. I was facing north and the object was traveling from east to west.

What struck me was the fact that it was such a large object in the sky and that it traveled in a quick, dart-like motion. It seemed to dissolve when it disappeared.

I looked for reports of sightings on google to see if there was a logical explanation and I found this sight instead.

Moving planes, or stars -- STOP and just hang there, for over 20 minutes

On my way to a neighbourhood coffee shop, (which I do fairly regularly on Saturday mornings) I noticed the planet Venus, as I had seen for the past month. Venus sat sort of low in the eastern sky.

As I walked, I noticed higher up in the eastern sky, lined up with Venus was what I believed to be 3 stars or distant planets. I stared at them for a minute because I thought they looked so “cool” lined up like that.

Before I knew it the two (planets or stars) on either side of the middle object (planet, star, or whatever) started in unison moving away from it.

Then I said to myself “Oh those must be jet planes. They moved an one inch away (from my vantage point), then stopped.

Well, I knew I was not looking at a “man made object at that point.” A chill went down my spine and the two “star like objects just hung there for the next 20 minutes.

somewhat clustered object moving in line

I had just gotten off the 210 Eastbound Freeway, when I noticed about 5 object slowly moving across the sky. Their distances were evenly spaced out, and the object's exterior lights seemed to pulsate. As they were grouped, they were moving at somewhat of a straight line. They were moving straight, parallel to the mountains, and slowly changed their position SE of the mountains. The shape I could not tell, because they were pretty high up in the air, but their pattern of movement could not have been that or a normal aircraft, because there are not airports in Pasadena. I wear glasses, but can see well. My niece was with me, and she saw exactly what I saw, and she has 20/20 vision. There were no clouds, nor anything that would distort visibility.

UFO spotted on spanish tv recording of Rose Parade.

I saw this vessel while watching the rose parade on channel 34 Univision here at my home in Paramount.

Me and my mother where watching the parade when they brought in the stealth bomber like they usually do. Well just behind the bomber just a little above it i saw a strange aircraft that lookew like a grey tube with two other tubes sticking out of the back going up. I kind of looked like the old star trek ship in the old series.

well this thing was about the same size as the bomber. At first I thought I was crazy but then I quickly asked my mom if she saw that thing, and she told me that she did and she was just as amazed by it as I was.

Well I saw the english version of the parade on channel 5 and the didn't catch on theyre channel.

So maybe if you can get the recording from the parade on the channel 34 los angeles i think you will definitely catch it to. call me back I would really like to see you investigate this thing. ((name deleted)) my number is 562-((number deleted)) cell email is ((e-address deleted))

By the way the object kind looked like it blended in the sky, kind of like who ever made it wanted it to be invisible.

Shape: Fireball
Characteristics: Left a trail, Emitted other objects

It was very early in the morning, in the predawn hours. Under a clear sky filled with stars (or at least as clear as it gets in the Los Angeles area) I looked straight up, as I often do, for a panoramic view, and to scan the sky for any oddities or any airplanes. Suddenly, the burst of what appeared to be the tail of a small comet, or shooting star, shot across the sky, very high up, and from a thumbnail perspective, left a trail perhaps three to four inches long.

This was a bright fiery white burst and by all appearances, was indeed a shooting star, as far as I could tell. However, it is noteworthy because they are relatively rare in the Los Angeles area since they cannot always be spotted from beneath the suburban and urban skies. This one had a long tail and left a trail of sparks.

There was nothing to obliterate my view and the appearance of this is apparently what I saw. I continued to stare up at the sky for a little while afterwards; however, I saw nothing else that I could deem as being unusual.

I would be very interested to know if anyone else saw this, and whether it had essentially the same appearance to them.

A light in the sky emmited multiple objects that came in our atmosphere, way more intense than any other sightings i've heard of.

It was 5:30 a.m. July 17, 2006 and me and a friend were standing in his back yard. We saw a light just above the horizon where the sun was coming up...there were no stars in the sky because the sun was rising, but this stayed visable, so we examined it for a while...we kept seeing multiple flashes around the area of the light, so we continued to watch and see what was going on...after about 30 mins i saw what i would say was a wave of energy come from the light, it was in the shape of an arch and was colorfull, and i felt that something big was happening, for a few second i actually feard for my life...just after this small burst i saw multiple objects shaped like J's turned 90 degrees to the right, coming from the direction of the light...they appeared very small from where we were, but they were within the atmosphere...we watched as they went in seperate directions across the sky...after we could no longer see the small objects, we continued watching the light... after a few minutes, the objects returned from the direction they had gone in and were heading towards the light...after a minute, we no longer saw the objects and the light began to fade until we couldn't see it anymore...ever since this event occured about 17 hours ago, the sky has felt much more occupied than before, i can't shake the fealing that w/e i saw is still present...

FIreball shaped object overhead, seen, then heard, then GONE without a trace.

I'm always scanning everything, esp. the sky as it's so beautiful in the later part of the day.

So I'm walking my dog and I'm looking up and I happened to notice a fireball shaped object jetting across the sky with a short, blazing trail/tail behind it. I thought "Not a jet, because a jet's tail extends behind it and stays in the sky looking like a whitish line and this ain't doing THAT!".

So I continued to watch this fireball moving across the sky, not super fast but definitely not slowly either! The tail stuck right with it, both a beautiful, blazing bright yellow-orange color....in other words, a fireball.

I called a friend immediately, told her what I was observing and what I took it to be--a UFO. By this point, I couldn't see the object anymore, not one trace or hint of anything having been up in the sky moments earlier. I kept looking up in all directions-nothing.

Then maybe 2 minutes later I heard what sounded like jet engines overhead but could see absolutely NO SIGN of any type of plane, not when I first heard the "jet engines", not before I heard anything and after losing sight of the UFO and not after the sounds were gone. NOTHING, not even residual fading sounds.

Saw a UFO-poof, it's gone. Heard "engines" for a moment-poof, over. No fadeout....no plumes or trails…

Large, glowing, bright green "fireball" falling fast south of Los Angeles.

I saw a bright green "fireball" fall very fast somewhere due south of Los Angeles. I saw it while I was outside running laps on the high school track, so I got a very clear view of it. I describe it as a fireball for lack of a better word, but really it wasn't because I've seen bolides before and they look much different in both color and it the expulsion of material. This was more like a very bright, very large flare because of its glowing nature, but it was falling way too fast to be a flare. It was quite beautiful actually.

Faint moving object glows white then disappears over Pasadena 9/16/04

I was sitting on my porch, tossing a toy for my dog. I looked up to see only a few stars in the sky; it was the very end of twilight. I then noticed a very faint star that had just appeared. Then I noticed it was moving, but it seemed very high in altitude. I thought perhaps it was a satellite, but there was so much light pollution and so few stars visible, it didn't seem possible that a such a small object would or could be seen and tracked. Then, suddenly, the extremely faint object (it was white, no colors that might indicate an aircraft) grew quite bright. I would call it a 'Flare up' in intensity, but it wasn't flickering like fire might. It radiated a bright, pure white light for about 2-3 seconds. Then the object dimmed to it's original faintness. Then it disappeared altogether. My eyes were strained trying to follow it. A few seconds later the object appeared, moving in a dirction at a perfect right angle to where it had been traveling. Then it dimmed and disappeared. This was not an aircraft I'm familar with. It was far to high for a helicopter, and no sound was heard. I'm not really into UFO reporting, but I am into the truth. And this was high enough on the strange meter that I figured somebody ought to know.



NUFORC Note:

We wonder whether the witness might have observed the "flare" from an Iridium satellite. PD

Small ovid object observed coming in from the San Gabriel mountains and hovering over Pasadena

I work 1 block N. of Colorado Blvd. in Old Town, Pasadena, CA. On 03/02/2004, I was alone on the 8th floor (top floor) of a corner conference room of the building I work in. I was in the conference room approximately 1 1/2 hours as I was listening to a conference call.

The office has two very large windows which presented 180 degree view of the north and east. It had rained the day before, but on this day, there were some clouds @ roughly 2 - 4 thousand feet. There were also breaks in the clouds so some sun was available. The visibility was very good. I could see JPL (Jet Propulsion Labs) on the north side, and to the east 20 + miles, and to the south east I could see Catalina Island. A very clear day.

I noticed a few helicopters during the time I was on the conference call. We have a lot in the area, police mainly. I also observed a few birds (hawks and crows) flying nearby.

At approximately 12:35 I was seated looking out the window facing Mt. Wilson and slighly to the East of it. I noticed an object I took for a helicoptor come into my line of vision from the mountains. It was moving towards me. I kept thinking it would soon become larger and I would see the roters spinning above. It did not get larger. As I kept watching it, it moved up just under the clouds and began to slow. It was still to small to get a good description other than it appeared an ovid type shape. I could see no appendages. Twice it was caught by sunlight and the color changed to a reddish metalic color.

The object continued to move just underneath the clouds and stopped just south of the building I was in, directly above Colorado Blvd. It continued to remain stationary for a few minutes. At that time, the conference call ended and I moved to end the call. When I looked out the window again, the object could no longer be seen.

I also noticed before I lost sight of it, that during the time it hovered over downtown Pasadena, a small private plane flew under it by a few hundred feet.

At arms distance the object would be about 1/4 the size of the nail on my little finger.

I would be interested to know if this is some sort of weather collection object. I am not saying it's alien, but I don't know what it was. Due to the closeness of JPL and indeed, the Skunk Works (just the other side of the mountains) who knows.

((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS))

Dear Peter,

Yes certainly feel free to use my report. I would love to know if these egg shaped objects are omething that is not mysterious if we only knew they were around (i.e., the weather gathering devices). Obviously if they are related to military then we won't be told.

I keep trying to look in the sky when I get the chance. I must start carrying a camera.

I look forward to your next guest spot on Coast to Coast.

Regards, ((name deleted))

Very bright stationary light in vicinity of LAX.

While at work I saw a very bright, unmoving, unblinking light SW of my position in Pasadena, putting it over the LAX airport area. I pointed it out to my 19-year-old son, who works with me. We observed it through his infrared scope and zoom digital camera. It appeared to be a very bright, solid object without appendages. Occasionally it showed a bluish tint, but basically was white. It was clearly not an airplane, helicopter, blimp, balloon or anything else we could think of, and it was much too bright to be Jupiter or Mars. In addition, the weather on this day and evening has been very windy, especially for LA, and yet it just hung in the sky without moving for a minimum of 20 minutes. This really added to the anomaly, since any untethered object like a balloon would have moved very obviously. It must have certainly be seen by thousands of early evening (5:50 to about 6:30) rush-hour commuters. After about 20 minutes, we decided to drive towards it. We were successful in keeping it in sight, but eventually it receded and we lost sight of it in the SW skies.

I was starting to doze off durring the david letterman show. i was awaken by a repetitive sound kinda resembling a phone of the hook but alot louder and definitely more profound.as i started to rise up off the couch i noticed it took a great deal of effort as if i was drugged or something. Of course i wasn't, but the physical feeling of a struggle to raise up off the couch was definitely present. As i could only sit i couldnt stand still have no clue as to why. i noticed the woods behind my house was completely illuminated as if there were flood lights on or a landing light on a helicopter as if it was searching. I know for a fact it wasn't any rotory aircraft. I also recall as if i was very cold and started to develop goosebumps in a big way. Eventually i was able to force myself to stand up. Only took me about 5 or 6 minutes to push myself up and walk over to the double french doors which lead to our sun patio. as i stood by the window the light faded with a slight flicker then was gone. Now im not quite sure how much time has past since this first incident to the 2nd but, it wasnt too long after. I had made myself go to sleep in my beedroom.

I was awaken by the same erie noise as before except this time its directly out front and above my room windows. I have 3 windows in my room 2 large windows in the front and one smaller window on the side over top of my garage. Whatever this light was, shining thru my windows as if to see or whatever. I just knew somehow or for somereason this wasnt right. I knew enough to stay outa the lights. i do remember a chilly, cold like heat coming from outside, kinda like a vapor rub type wind. i know it sounds strange but thats the best way to explain it. almost menthol like. i wasnt able to yell but i was able to move and walk better this time. So being the wimp that i am i hid in my closet like a freak and never told anyone about it til now.

I woke up in the morning in my closet to a beautiful day. Even though for days i havent been able to sleep alone. This really scared the crap outa me.




NUFORC Note:

The witness indicates that the date of the alleged incident is approximate, even though the report is submitted just a short time after the event. We are confused by that fact. PD

Object over Altadena witnessed by 2

Looking northward , I observed a black object slowly floating across the sky in a northward direction , over Altadena , very close to JPL . After watching it for approximately 20 seconds , it dramatically flattened out to a near-perfect arch . It was then when my fiance' joined me . We immediately observed the object emit an arching light from just above the leading edge , (the sun had set entirely within the past hour of our observation , solar reflection was improbable ).The object continued to change shape ; similar to a large plastic trash bag . As it approached the the ridge of the mountains , to our surprise , it disappeared behind the mountains , indicating it's extreme size . This is the third time in the last three weeks , we've seen these peculiar 'floaters' and they've always been observed near the western ridge of the San Gabriel Mountains

We assume the witness intended a date in August 2003, not September. We have amended the date above. PD

Slow moving , translucent object , that blocked out other stars , observed.....

Shutting down for the night , was in backyard observing night sky as I usually do , I saw a seemingly translucent object pass directly over my head , from a north-west to south-east direction . It was traveling slow enough that , as it traveled towards the 3/4 full moon , I actually did see detail on the object . It did not have any lights , though it did have a dark center , the moon reflected a dull light from it . It was the size of an adult's index fingernail at arm's length . As it passed the moon , it doubled its speed and changed course in a due south direction towards Orange County . After confirming with NOAA that the upper and surface wind flows were in a southeasterly to northwesterly direction , the object defied the predominant airflow , thus making obvious theoretical deductions . In addition , confirmation with Navy and Air Force (Vandenberg AFB) proved no exercises were enacted this particular evening . Thank You .

Bright Light travelling over Houston Ship Channel, with Red and Blue Lights flashing around the perimeter, making Que-ball turns.

At approximately 3 AM, 12/21/02, I walked out on the front porch to smoke a Cigarette, and, glanced up toward the NW to check the sky. My attention was instantly drawn to a brightly lit object travelling toward the NE at about the speed of a private plane, approximately over the Houston Ship Channel, about 2 miles away. It had just passed a yard light slightly above my neighbors house, and, I watched as it travelled the full length of the roof ridgeline (about 150 feet distant, and, possibly 50 feet of roof). Casually wondering why I was looking into what might have been a Landing Light, if the craft were travelling toward me, I was startled to see it make a 180 degree Que-ball turn, without dimenishing its speed. It retraced its flight path back to the point where I originally noticed it, made another Que-ball turn, and, continued on its original path, but, descending below the ridgeline and out of sight at about the point where it made the initial turn.

It was simply a large, bright light, larger than a pinpoint, with red and blue lights flashing around the perimeter, yet, the light always seemed to be pointed straight at me, indicating that it was radiating in all directions, as opposed to being a beam that pointed toward the line of flight.

This is not the first time I have seen lights in the Sky that seemed to be shining directly at me, while travelling in directions at physical odds with Landing Lights. The first time was in Dec. of 1999, multiple objects over Ellington Field and Baybrook Mall, in Clear Lake City, Texas. Disappeared up I-45, around downtown Houston, and, apparently switching to I-10 West, toward San Antonio.

It was blue, crescent-shaped, and wobbling from side to side.

It was blue, and very large. At first it looked like an escape balloon, but it was too far away and too large. It was shaped like one of those dolphin balloons, which gave me my first clue. It was wobbling from side to side, and heading East. After a little bit, it dissapeared behind some trees. Even after we repositioned ourselves, it was out of sight. It just dissappeared.

multiple lights bring on heavy air traffic from militray base

my wife, my son, and I were leaving a resteraunt and noticed a group of lights in the sky that seemed out of place. as we drove home, heading due east,(down Spencer highway towards La Porte) we watch the lights there were three of them, the one on the right( most northern ) and the highest, "faded" a little and headed in a northern direction quite rapidly, until we could not see it anymore due to the buildings. the one on the left (southern) dropped lower and then "shot" south bound very fast and was gone. the middle one just hung there, moving only slightly to the left and right and up and down. it got brighter and then dimmer, it was yellowish in color with a hint of a red and blue shimmer or twinkle. we thought it might be a plane heading right for us but i have never seen a plane coming form that direction or heading to that direction. my wife suggested that it might be a helicopter with the search light on. it seemed like the logical answer and i was about to go inside. thats when i started looking around in the sky and notice what would become the stranger thing than the light. it was all of the air traffic...13 or more aircraft all converging toward the light. many from the local air force base down here. we considered all of the airports and local and military fields yet the only one would have been the La Porte field which only caiters to personnal aircraft and heli's, which would make for a nice answer, but why all the air traffic? as we watched and tried to figure out what was going on the remaining light dimmed to a pin point and started moving north and most of the air craft headed north as well, but three large aircraft circled around and around for about another 15 minutes. the whole event lasted about 45 minutes to an hour. it was due east of my location which change from the middle of Pasadena the the west side of Deer Park. Ellington Air Force Base is about 5 to 6 miles south of my house. and the lights were about 25 to 35 degrees from the ground. at first i thought it was just aircra! ft and d idn't think to get the camera and by the time that i realized something was going on i didn't want to leave the scene, and soon after it was all over with.

Large rectangular craft seen New Year's Eve

I was driving towards the west when I stopped at a stop sign and saw what I thought was an elaborate fireworks show being that it was New Year's Eve.

The event lasted one second.After watching the same area of the sky for a couple of minutes I realized what I'd witnessed was not a fireworks display.

What I had seen was a huge rectangular shaped object at least 300 yards long and 50 yards wide.It was vertical with several bright white lights inside a red rectangular outer rim.It was about 300 to 400 feet in the air and probably over the city of Pearland Texas which is about 10 miles from where I saw the object.The sky was cloudy that night and I couldn't see any stars.I don't know if it was moving or hovering.The object appeared out of nowhere and the next second vanished.It was incredibly beautiful and I wish I could have observed it longer.I believe it was either a craft or a holograph.Do humans have that kind of holographic ability and if they do why would they show that object and for only one second?Even though it was New Year's Eve I had not been imbibing and was completeley sober.Although after witnessing the event I could have used a good stiff drink .

white ball of light streaks to earth; makes a 90 degree turn and streaks out of sight

Saturday Dec 8 2001 1:22 a.m. Pasadena Ca I was driving home from work on the 210 freeway between the Fairoakes cutoff and the lake Ave. cutoff in Pasadena when my eye caught a ball of light streaking extremely fast to the earth; when it was about two to five thousand feet from the ground it made a 90 degree turn and streaked in to the distance and out of sight. The whole incident lasted about 7 seconds.

I witnessed that meteor shower a short time ago, so this clearly was no meteor.

It was a white ball of light.

Two glowing jellyfish-like objects float across Pasadena, CA sky

I'm a 22 year old computer science major from University of Washington, in Pasadena for a co-op job with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. I stepped outside my apartment (near intersection of E. Del Mar Blvd. and Hill Ave.) this evening to walk to my car and happened to notice two glowing shapes crossing the sky from the North-West. They were irregularly shaped, lumpy, and fuzzy. The best way I can summarize their appearance is to describe them as glowing jellyfish. They seemed to changed shape as they floated silently together across the sky, finally disappearing into the haze above the South-East horizon. They were probably five to ten diameters apart from each other, and about doubled their distance in the time that I watched them. They were side-by-side, although the West-most object lagged slightly. The really strange thing about them was that they each had several blobs inside them that were glowing brighter than the rest of the object. These blobs moved, sort of tumbling around inside. I'm sure there are others out there who got a better view of these objects than me. Many people in the LA area must have seen them, especially since there might have been people out watching the meteor shower that's supposed to be happening tonight. A plane was also in the sky, traveling East to West.

Bright green fireball travelling east to west over Pasadena, California at 7PM Pacific on 12/28/00

My sighting was too brief to merit reporting. I am only reporting it in case there were other sightings. I was getting into my car and glanced north towards Mount Wilson observatory, which overlooks Pasadena. I briefly saw a bright florescent green light/ fireball arcing across the sky heading east to west. It was extremely bright and extremely green. I have a very vivid image of how unusual it looked. Holding my arm at arm's length it would have only been the size of my smallest fingernail. But judging by the arc it did not look too high in the atmosphere. It was very much like a falling star/ meteor - but much bigger, closer, right over the city - and extraordinarily vivid green in color. My sighting was a brief glimpse only - it was obscured by a building. I tried to drive towards the sighting a few minutes later and found nothing.

Disapearing sattellite like object spotted above Los Angeles County.

My Lady and I were out in the front yard looking for our chickens that had gotten out of the back yard. It was a very clear night and the stars were shining nicely. I layed on my back in the driveway to look into the sky as I often do on nights like this. There was a couple of planes in the sky, one local and one in the distance. My Lady and I both noticed a light travelling at a very quick pace. This object was moving across the sky from NW due SE and appeared to be very high up. The light was bright and appeared white. She asked me what I thought it was and we both thought it may be a sattelite, which was a bit out there because we were in the city. We have been out at the Salton Sea and seen a sattelite clearly along with a nice view of the Milky Way. This object was clear and moving across the Pasadena sky, which has a lot of light pollution. The object had just passed above us, at the same high altitude, and started to change in color from white to red and then it vanished. It was a very clear night, and this object did not have a blinking beacon like all other craft in the sky!

Two boomerang-shaped crafts, one with an extra, brightly lit object flying just off its left wing tip.

I am a 45-year-old office worker. On May 26 at 9:28 p.m. I was in my back patio. As I was walking to go back inside, I looked up and saw a boomerang-shaped craft slowing gliding directly overhead. Its shape was that of a 90-degree angle, with very sharply defined, angular features, like 2 long rectangles joined to a point in the front. It had 3 large, white lights on each wing. It was the size of an index finger held arm's length, slightly smaller. My guess is that it was approximately the elevation small planes fly, traveling about 200-300 mph, and I would say it was somewhat larger than a commercial airliner, maybe twice as large. The lights were very soft looking, not bright or glaring at all. I could just make out the boomerage outline of it against the sky. If it didn't have lights, I'd never have noticed it. It traveled almost directly overhead going NNW. Then 4 minutes later, to my utter amazement, ANOTHER one flew directly overhead, this one going NW. The second one was identical in every respect except that as it approached, I noticed that it looked asymetrical, with 3 lights on one side and 4 on the other, the last light on the left wing being considerably brighter. As it passed overhead, I saw that that 4th light was actually a separate object flying a short distance off the wingtip at exactly the same speed. As it flew off in the distance, that extra object kept perfect pace and distance with the boomerang. These craft were completely silent. Then, at 9:55, I saw a very bright, silvery white streak of light go across the sky in that same NW direction. I've witnessed many meteor showers, and this wasn't one. The tail looked like light as opposed to a debris tail left by a meteor, and it dissapeared to a single point of light in the distance. On January 2 of this year, I reported another boomerang that flew overhead at this same location, which looked exactly the same except it was traveling much faster and the entire craft was much easier to see because it had a sort of florescent glow outli! ning it.

Location: Pasadena (I-5, desert, north of; south of Gorman), CA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

On a clear night, while driving north on Interstate 5 north of Pasadena, south of Gorman, and west of the Angeles National forest, I saw a triangle-shaped craft about the size of a Boeing 737 with brilliant white lights outlining its spear-shaped hull and a single blinking red light below the center. The craft was flying low in front of me, only a couple of hundred feet up, and passed out of sight behind some low hills to the west. Its flight path was a straight line with no sudden accelerations. There were two oddities: it was going very slowly for such a narrow, wingless hull, and it wobbled quite noticeably.

Traveling north on I-5 on clear, moonless night, with desert mountains on the right, low hills on left, and no trees anywhere, my attention was drawn to my right, where, over the crest of the mountains, I saw what appeared to be a plane with multiple white lights, such as are turned on when a large plane is about to land. The lights were numerous and extremely bright and the object was flying low over the mountain on a bearing from northeast to southwest, a diagonal to the oncoming north-south traffic. I looked at it for awhile, remarking to myself how bright it was ("never seen that many lights on a plane before," I thought), then I looked back to the road to keep my eye on oncoming traffic. The object crossed the road and I realized it was traveling quite slowly, about on a par with the automobiles (45 to 65 mph). As it passed from the right side of the road to the left at a distance of at most a half a mile, I could see that it was illuminated from stem to stern by brilliant white lights of varied shape. The lights were confined to the perimeter of the craft, which became apparent because the "plane" (I was still under the impression that it was an ordinary jetliner about to land at an unknown airfield over the hills to my left), was wobbling about its central axis. As it wobbled I could see that the lights clearly outlined an elongated triangle. The triangle was shaped like a spearhead, much longer on its sides than its base was wide, with quite a sharp point. There were no wings, and no stabilizer that I could make out, except perhaps a low fin-like ridge (also triangle shaped) toward the rear, but I wouldn't swear to it). It occurred to me at this point that I might be seeing one of the famous flying triangles from the Netherlands flap, or such as had been reported in Lancester (which it so happens was east of my location, though I did not know it at the time), or in upstate New York. I was incredulous at the triangular shape of the craft, so I did my best to confirm it by focusing my a! ttention between the lights on the shadowy contours. I recall remarking to myself several times that, yes, it WAS a triangle, because the ENTIRE perimeter of bright white lights was filled in by the dark shadow of the hull, occluding stars or terrain that passed behind the craft. More about the lights: All were bright white, similar to the new halogen lamps on automobile headlights. However, they were not of uniform shape. Some were roundish, others were blobby, or egg shaped. It was an impressive array in sheer number and in variety, but all were confined to the edges of the craft, except ONE. On the underbelly of the craft, about where you would find the center of gravity, there was a slowly blinking RED light. It was this red light that made me think it was definitely a terrestrial or military craft. As the craft neared the hills to my left, now at about an 8 o'clock position, taking I-5 North as my 12 o'clock pointer, I saw the tail section of the craft outlined. It was diamond-shaped, similar to the tail section of, for want of a better comparison, the Imperial Star Destroyer in the STAR WARS movies. In other words, it was like two long isosceles triangles joined at the base. The craft passed out of sight over the low hills to the left, much lower now than the mountains to the right where it had first appeared. As I drove up I-5 about a mile farther, I looked to the left to see the "airfield." Instead I saw that there were city lights there in the distance, though I'm not sure which city it was or how far away (see the map I will send in the mail for my best guess). As the craft passed out of sight I was struck by how much the craft wobbled, but I remarked to myself, "Well, that's what you'd expect from a plane with a wing-shape like that." But I was tired: it occurred to me later that this craft didn't have enough wing surface to keep it up AT ALL when flying at that slow speed, unless my sense of distance and time was badly off. I would expect that only a supersonic jet flying at several hundred miles per hour would be able to stay aloft with a wing pattern such as I saw. My final verdict is "undecided, need more information." Whatever I saw, it was quite unusual, and it kept me thinking for the rest of the night.
