20+ lights that seemed to weave in a line in the sky. NOT LIKE STARLINK SATS. The lights were slaloming and then scattered and vanished

About 9:20 pm, i seen a line of staggered lights in the sky coming from the west and they were heading easty moving considerably fast. I didnt count but there was about 20+ lights. They were fairly bright and were one solid color. I called for my dad and sister to come out who were also perplexed at the sight. The lights weren't spaced evenly and were weaving as they moved. As if they were slaloming. After watching for a minute, the scattered and disappeared practically instantly faster than they were moving before.

Large glowing green, comet shaped object, flying North over Redlands and then “winks” out of existence before reaching the horizon.

A green object caught my attention from the corner of my eye while driving on the 10 freeway. I glanced out my window and saw a greenish comet shaped object flying away from me traveling North. It was bright and my first thought was a meteor except the low intensity “burn” was green and steady instead of fiery colored and flickering. The comet shape, like a circle or oval with a tail did not leave a trail and the whole thing winked out of existence a few inches about the horizon. It was too big to be a satellite or aircraft and moved too quickly to be anything I have seen before. It streaked across from my vantage point at the top of my window to almost the horizon, distant mountains, in less than 3 seconds.

We were at a dinner party and my niece asked what was the BLUE PLANET in the sky? looking South West at the BLUE STAR i noticed a line of lights going from South West to north east. Didn't see any detail they were extremely high. We took a cell phone video but of course you only see the lights moving and some one making a comment that they are not planes!

huge, long fast object with lights

9 or 10 white lights spaced out along an object. appeared in the early night sky as we were walking kids. looked about the size of 1-2 football fields. seemed to be as high as an airliner would travel. no sound. at firtst sight we thought it was a banner being pulled by a plane but there was nothing in front of or behind. then as the object passed directly over head, from north to south, we noticed there was mass between the lights, which also seemed to be changing in proximity to each other. it was in view, overhead & out of sight in about 1 minute. Also took video on a cell phone which was not able to see anything but notes the experience & time

HUGE Ball Shape with White Light Ring hovering over 10 Fwy San Bernardino East in early morning hour. AMAZING!!!

HUGE perfect ball shaped, dull metallic gray, with a white light that appeared to wrap all the way around it- hovering fairly close to the earth considering the size of it. This thing was enormous! I was getting on the 10 Freeway East at California Avenue. As soon as I made a right onto the on-ramp I was amazed. It was just right there hovering. At first I thought it was the moon and was in awe of how BIG it was. But the white light ring around it made it look like a lunar eclipse. Once I merged on to the freeway safely I tried to get a better look. Had to rub my eyes to make sure I was really seeing what I thought it was.

It didn’t appear to be moving. Just hovering. After I was sure it was not an eclipse of the moon I thought to myself that maybe it was a blimp....but knew it absolutely was not- waaay too BIG, wrong shape (this was like a perfect ball).

Because it was just hovering I became excited that I was going to be able to “catch up” to it for a better look. So I glanced to my left as I got over to the fast lane of the freeway. When I looked back again ahead of me it wasn’t gone but within a fraction of a second it wasn’t there anymore.

I couldn’t believe my eyes. I have never seen anything move that fast.... especially something that massive in size. It was just gone.....poof! I so wish I had been able to see it up closer. I am still in awe of what I saw. It was amazing. It was beautiful. Unfortunately there was nobody in my truck with me to share the experience :( I couldn’t even talk to other drivers because we were on the freeway at an interchange. And when I got to where I was going (San Manuel Casino) I couldn’t find a soul who witnessed what was just up in our sky. Yes it was so big I am certain if any of those gamblers had been outside they could have seen it all the way from the casino.

When I got there I told a few people (that I didn’t even know’) what I saw....a couple of them looked at me like I was crazy.....one guy was interested and believed me....he was jealous. I would be, too.

It was an amazing experience.

PS--I didn’t hear ANY sound of an engine or motor. And when it disappeared it was very fast but VERY smooth movements.

It was bright red tinted light oval shape and vanished quickly when I took a picture.

A bright red tinted oval shaped light, on the East side of my house about a 1/2 to 1 mile away stationary over the Redlands Airport, caught my attention. I opened the bedroom door to get a better look. I got my phone to take a picture. As the light from my camera came on, the object zoomed/streaked to my left North towards the mountains and its light diminished/ disappeared.

I checked my camera and only showed a penpoint (few pixels) like light, not the oval, egg shape I saw. There was no sound.

Bright falling object falls in a direct line than maneuvers an "L" shape at tremendous speed.

At approximately 8:50 pm, while turning into my apartment complex, and was about to pull into my parking space, a falling bright white light that was north/east above the municipal airport caught my attention. I stopped and noticed that the object, a bright white round looking object, which in the night sky would be about as bright as a star in the night sky.

This object came down at an a tremendous speed, and the amazing thing about the light was it came straight down, than made an instant maneuver as an L light down, than light sped off horizontally and I only caught the seconds of this object whisking behind the trees that blocked my view. However, the bright white light was for a brief few seconds in my sight. I immediately pulled out of my parking to take a drive in the direction of this light object to see if I could or might see it again , and pulled over to watch and did not see this light again.

Within 30 minutes, I heard the sheriff helicopter in the area, could be unrelated, circling the in the area for about 15 minutes.

Extremely bright LED-like light over Southern California.

It’s now mid-March 2017, and since mid-February I’ve seen an extremely bright light (reminds me of a huge LED tactical light) early every evening in the eastern ((sic. western)) sky over Southern California. It’s large enough to make a person assume that it’s close to the observer’s neighborhood, but its size and brightness make it likely to be seen by many residents living in Southern California.

The light always appears around 8 p.m., sitting low in a dark sky, without any other visible stars. The light is bright in one position for approximately 30 minutes, then the light goes out, and it pops up again nearby, again parked for another 30 minutes in a new position.

I first noticed it in February and, like my husband, instantly thought of Saturn. But the light was so “artificial” and too low that I couldn’t bring myself to believe it was Saturn. My thought was that it’s more likely a satellite or a surveillance device (drone? balloon?) possibly launched by the police, or by USGS, or by CALTRANS. I’ve found no evidence on the Internet, but if any of these surveyors want anonymity, there wouldn’t be an announcement or explanation posted to the Internet.

I believe I’ve noticed lights-out once a week (does the object need a break to re-adjust?), and then re-activated the following night for the rest of the week.

I’m not certain why the foregoing surveyors would survey at night, except to avoid small aircraft from local municipal airports that would not be flying at night in the object’s altitude thereby not interfering with the object’s mission. Large airlines flying to Ontario or to Los Angeles can be seen and are distinguishable because they move higher in the sky than does the bright light that parks low in the sky and does not move at all while lit.

Thoughts rush through my mind of foreign surveillance by China, Russia, North Korea. Could that be true? Don’t know. “It’s a puzzlement!”

Slow moving and instant size changing orb with ring around it

I am a 58 yr old man, my 16 yr old daughter and 17yr old boyfriend was there, a 20 yr old family friend and my 9yr old and 3 yr old great nephews were there. While in the backyard feeding the fish in the pond I noticed what looked like a pulsating star at first until I noticed it changing size drastically and instantly while also observing slow movement, so I went in the house and got my binoculars and iPhone I sat down on a a five brick high planter box and started filming where I held the phone with both hands and arms extended out slightly above my head and started filming kept my arms stiff for the whole four minutes of the video I was not moving in and out with my arms and tried to tape with a rosebush partly in the picture so you could determine a stationary object in the filming . This orb moved around but basically was in the same area the whole time but changed sizes shapes constantly and had a Saturn like ring around it and when it got big you c! ould see the nucleus of the thing was in meeting energy constantly moving like it was morphing into something almost looks like an entity instead of a craft, when I looked at this object through the binoculars I was astounded at what I saw things moving constantly brilliant colors almost looked like flames in there orbs multiplying within the orb, and amazing array of colors and move me constantly going, I was extremely moved and it was actually scary looking in there and will never Forget the images I saw in those binoculars.

Green light craft or object disappears in the sky

I was driving my mom home to Palm Desert from Los Angeles via 210 east.

On the left side - passenger side over head, a large green light came swooping down over to the left of the highway and just disappeared. It moved like a craft, very smooth. Could have been a meteorite.

I meant to report it earlier but got sidetracked and forgot till I was listening to delayed show cast of CTC and when your report came on. The ironic thing was I was telling my work colleague about it while we were listening to it and then the next minute you reported a green lighter object from another report somewhere else. Ironic. All I could say was, see!? Anyway, it was quick, but exciting siting and if someone else saw it that night in that area, I would be interested to hear about it maybe there's an earthly explanation but I found it intriguing.

Thanks for listening.

White lights going around massive circular object

It was the night of April 09, 2016 as I was riding my bike back home from getting something to eat in Redlands, CA. For a while I enjoyed watching the sunsets, walking in the rain, and looking up at the stars, so as I was looking up at the night sky I noticed two lights crossing back and forth from each other.

As I continued to ride home, I thought the lights were just a couple of helicopters. 5 min later I saw the lights again, but they seemed closer and I could see them more clearly. The two lights were not any aircraft as they were moving too fast back and forth. So I got my phone out to try to take a video but it was too dark but for some reason I could take clear pictures, so I spent and hour taking numerous pictures as the objects disappeared and reappeared every few seconds. They were not red or blue but just a plain white colored light, so a good 30 min passed before I finally decided to go home.

Once I got home, I've noticed a pattern of the lights, they were not two objects passing back and forth, but two lights going around this one circular object. I saw this by the way the lights pointed as they disappeared and reappeared in this pattern behind the clouds in the sky. I don't know if the object was the shape of a sphere, circle, oval, or cylinder as I only saw the lights going in a circular motion. The best way to describe what a saw was this circular object with two white lights on the object going around it.

Three hours later I decided to go outside to see if the lights were still there and they were. My father, sister, and I saw these lights. I would say the object was pretty massive, no where near the size of an airplane. The way the lights were traveling around it I would approximate the size as the length of 10 planes or even bigger.

I don't believe I was abducted as I kept track of time because I've heard stories before and I haven't had any physical harm. I hope someone else out there in Redlands or highland saw this object that I saw that night.

Strange Amber-Orange Light seen in Redlands, California, on July 4th.

At about 8:30 PM on Saturday, July 4th, I was sitting in our front yard in Redlands, California, waiting with friends and family to watch the annual fireworks display at the University of Redlands Football Stadium. I had been sitting and talking with my friend who is a medical doctor at an area hospital.

There were a number of small aircraft flying around the area, which is typical around here on July 4th, but one aircraft really stood out. Instead of the typical red and green blinking position lights as seen on the surrounding aircraft, this particular aircraft had one amber-orange light. It appeared to be the size of a large, bright planet…possibly a bit larger. It moved in a west to east trajectory north of Redlands in the direction of Mentone, California. My friend and I watched it for 30-45 seconds.

As I continued to watch the light, I kept saying to her, “That doesn’t look like an airplane.” It appeared to be moving about the same speed as the small airplanes in the area, but unlike those other aircraft it maintained a constant altitude. My friend looked away briefly, but I kept watching it. Then before my eyes it abruptly disappeared. When it disappeared, I exclaimed to her, “It disappeared!” She looked back at me and said, “That must not have been an airplane!”

I am kicking myself because we had a yard full of people, and I didn’t say anything to anyone else but my friend. I didn’t even tell my husband, who is a retired USAF navigator. He reprimanded me, saying, “The next time you see something like that tell me!”

8 round orange balls coming from the South, heading towards the mountains.

The date that this event took place is january 1, 2015. I had just came back from a get together with my family. Me and my dad were the first once to arrive at my house.

Then my sister arrived with her baby girl from our get together. She took out her baby girl out of the car and came inside the house. She was trying to put her baby to sleep.

Afterwards, my sister went outside to get something from her car. Then she said, she saw an orange circle down the street do south of my house. My sister said it was really low and then it went up to the sky. She got scared. The orange circle past up my drive way and headed to the mountains.

Then, my sister came inside the house and told me to come outside. She can barely speak. She said it was urgent!

At first it was me and my sister that went outside. When I saw that orange light of circle in the sky, I told my sister that its just a plane. But as I started to focus more on the flying object, it did not look like anything I've ever seen before. I was very shocked.

My dad came out of the house to see what was going on. This was around twelve thirty something cause I didn't check the time. I told my dad to go get my tablet.

When I got the tablet, I started to take pictures. Then video. As i was recording, my dad yelled out to me, theirs another one coming from the south! I aimed my tablet to capture them on video. Then another one was coming from the same direction. Then I starded taking video again cause to more were coming from the same direction. They all headed to where the other flying objects were. I capture at least 4 flying objects coming from the south and headed towards the mountains. I got 2 pictures, and 3 videos on my tablet.

Then I told my sister to go get her camera so she can record the flying objects. We stayed outside for a couple of minutes to capture them on video. Then we went inside our house.

Finally, when everyone was asleep, at 3:26 a.m., I went outside to see if they were still there. They were, and still in the same position that we saw them. My dad counted to see how many flying objects we saw and he said 8 in total.

Blinking light hovers toward Palm Springs from Redlands

Plain and simple, I went for an early morning jog and spotted something strange in the sky. It wasn't changing location like a normal plane, but instead just staying in one spot.

It was blinking in an abnormal pattern.

I have the actual evidence recorded through video. It may not be clear enough to justify as a UFO but in this circumstance was very strange and peculiar so I recorded it just in case."

Blue-gray glowing object moved very fast and disappeared.

On April 10, 2013, my husband and I, in separate cars were driving east on Interstate 10 in Redlands, California. He was about a minute to 90 seconds behind me. The time was about 9:12 p.m. PDT.

Despite fairly heavy traffic around me, I noticed a very fast-moving object heading from north to south above the eastern horizon. It was just above treetops from my view. It was not fiery or bright like a meteorite, and it was far too fast to be any kind of aircraft. It glowed enough to be visible, obviously, and was dull blue-gray.

The size was very hard to judge, since I don't know how far away it was. Compared to the planets, it was larger than Venus but not bright. It did not leave a trail.

Its path was straight. I lost sight of it after perhaps 3 or 4 seconds.

My husband had a clearer view from a higher point on the freeway. He observed the object for 4 to 5 seconds before it disappeared on the horizon. His impression of it was exactly the same as mine, the dull gray-blue, the flat trajectory. He said it might have appeared smaller in size when it disappeared.

On land, from the point where he first noticed it to where it vanished is a distance of about 15 miles.

I pulled off the freeway and parked to watch the sky, and he pulled in a minute later. I saw nothing else unusual. He was glad I had seen the object, too, so I didn’t dismiss it as a light reflected in his car’s windshield.

I have not been able to find anything on the web about similar sightings at that time.

Red/white light first mistaken for a shooting star then went in a zigzag pattern before disappearing.

Only July 22 at 9:45 p.m., my wife and I were leaving a concert at the Redlands Bowl in Redlands, CA, when I saw what I first thought was a shooting star traveling north.

I realized that it was not a shooting star because it was visible too long and did not leave a trail. I thought it may be a satellite, but then discounted that because of the speed it was traveling across the sky.

I pointed it out to my wife who saw it as well. We watched as it travelled north then made two or three zigzags and disappeared. I remember it as a white light with a red light next to it and my wife thought it looked more like three red lights.

The light pattern leads me to believe it was a plane, but it was very high and the speed it traveled and the zigzag pattern were not like a plane.

It only lasted about 5 or 6 seconds and traversed most of the sky.

I was at my work site working security grave yard shift. I was outside looking up at the stars because one star was very bright and close and it caught my attention. Then I see a red light flashing very high up and close to this light I'm looking at it thinking to myself this air plane has to see the light I'm looking at since it is right next to it. The red light kept coming in my direction for about 1 minute getting lower and closer to me.The red light was flashing on and off about one time per second.As it got closer to me I noticed it was a triangle shaped dark gray object with a red light in the center.I would say maybe 80 ft long from corner to corner and 10 ft tall from top to bottom flying very slowly about 30mph.It had no wings and it made no noise.As it hovered directly over my head about 150ft above me the center where the red light was opened up.It was a circle right in the center of the craft that had 4 doors that opened up right over my head the red light disappeared and I saw a very bright white light inside the craft.You can not see inside the craft just the bright white light.It kept moving very slow past me and about 3 seconds later it closed the center up and the red light showed up again and it flew off in the same slow speed over the truck yard I was guarding.As it flew away I saw six small white lights on the rear of the craft on the bottom to top side.The lights were flashing from left to right very fast over and over.Anyone could have seen this craft it was very low and moving slow not hiding at all.I'm very afraid as to why it opened up like it was going to abduct me when it was over me.It looks identical to the triangle shaped ufo with the red light in the center with 1 light on each corner.Except the one I saw only had the red light on the bottom center no other lights on the bottom and small flashing lights on the rear.I could see carvings on the craft also it was not solid.I am not one to believe in s! tuff like this but now I have no doubt in my mind.I wish I wou! ld've ha d a camera

Characteristics: Lights on object

Possible balloons with ignition sources launched over Mentone for New Year's celebration.

I live in Redlands, which is about 6 miles EESE of San Bernardino, CA.

At a little before midnight New Year’s Eve, 2010, I went out on my east-facing front porch to listen to the celebratory noise.

Approximately 00:05 am I observed two glowing objects rise from the NNE from my vantage point.

The objects were, to my eyes, about as bright, and were about the same angular size, as the planet Jupiter (when it is on the zenithal arc).

These objects seem to have risen from NE Mentone, the next town east of Redlands.

The atmospheric conditions caused them to slowly rise, in an apparent north-westerly direction.

The sky was overcast with some low stratus and cumulus clouds. I was able to track these objects for about 10 to 12 minutes before they entered obscurity in the clouds, or their inherent light source went out.

The two objects appeared to originate from the same ground location. Their apparent angular separation ranged from about ½ degree to 2 degrees.

My supposition is that they were large balloons carrying an ignition source well below the balloons themselves (to keep from burning the balloons).

The light they gave off was mostly white, with a slight reddish tinge. The time of their disappearance was approximately 00:20 am. From the time of first notice, to final disappearance, they traveled approximately 55 degrees azimuthally.

Thought I would write this in case anyone else saw the same thing.

About midway through November, in the late afternoon, I saw two similarly-sized objects, with about the same apparent luminosity. They, however (or at least at the time I noticed them), were separated by about 30 degrees, and had much different trajectories. It is quite possible that their point of origination was also in NE Mentone – perhaps these were test flights?

Pea-Sized Dim Amber Glowing Disk Within A Perfect Black Circle @ about 10K Feet Above

On September 3, 2010, at 2300 hours PDT, low-lit glowing amber disc, surrounded by perfect rigid black ring, flying craft passed over Redlands, California, from East to West, traveling 4-5 times faster than any jet aircraft heading to ONT/LAX.

The craft flew straight and appeared under 10,000 feet above. The glowing craft was perfectly round and had no navigation lights, and it made no sound.

There was also a jet liner heading to ONT in the same sky, but flying much slower. It is my first and only sighting.

I wished I had not seen it; it is easier to to believe that true UFO's do not exist when one has never seen one.

Two fast lights matching speed and distance across the night sky

My fiance and myself were out on our balcony having a cigarette, when we saw a bright light high in the sky. There were a number of commercial aircraft in the air to compare the light to.

The light we saw was not blinking, emitted no noise, and appeared to be moving faster than an aircraft and much higher up in the sky. It moved at a steady, unchanging pace across the sky for about a minute before it was joined by a second light behind it.

We approximated it's distance from the first light to be about 30,000 feet, and the trailing light maintained this distance until both lights vanished from view on the horizon. The trailing light at no point moved faster or slower than the leading light, nor got closer or father away.

Neither produced any sound, or any light besides a single bright colorless point of light (which in both cases dimmed perceptibly to a pinprick of light before brightening back up.

This occurred as a slow fade in and out, and did not seem to be a strobe or airplane marker light.)

it looked like and orange glowing ball that moved like no object i ever seen in the skies

I was on my way home from work from Loma Linda CA. going east towards Redlands CA. down a backroad a couple of miles from the 10 freeway i noticed a lot of planes in the sky because of how clear it was I noticed an orange colored object about 80 degrees overhead it seem to stay as still as a star but I realized it was way to close to earth to be a star. For about a minute it then abruptly started to move west and then it changed course abruptly moving east and then just stayed in its position. For about 15 seconds it then drifted again east traveling up in a higher elevation By this time I pulled over and someone else behind me pulled over and we got out of our cars at the same time. We both were trying to figure out what it was. The most acurate part to what we both saw was that there was about three planes coming in different directions coming towards each other so comparing the way it moved and looked was very much different compared to the planes we were looking at in the sky. The planes in the sky had blinking lights like every plane does at night and this craft did not. The craft then again moved straight up in elevation then stayed in its position for another 30 seconds and disappeared in the direction of space. Me and this person I have never met stayed by the street and looked to see if it would reappear, it didn't. But for the next 30 minutes there seemed to be a lot of airplane activity in the same area.

i saw it at about 11:30 P.M. and it was a couple miles away from my house.It was an orange light that was fairly bright. It slowly moved across the sky that dropped orange sparks that were the same color as the object. the sparks then dissapeared about 1/4 in the sky. There was a plane quite a way away from it and there was a helicopter flying torwards it but way below it. once the helicopter came just a little bit close it vanished and never appeared again that night.It was about 60 degrees from were i was standing and the object had no flashing lights it was a constant light but the dissapeared right as it started moving torward my house

Observed a very large, half circle object with faint lights on top that reshaped into a circle and changed color.

I was driving west on Redlands Blvd. Directly in the sky in front of me was what looked like an extra large half moon set with the curved side down and flat on top. It caught my attention because it was so large and not in the correct position to be the moon although it was white. I looked at it and realized the edges were blurred and there was some difined shape within ot and then I noticed very faint twinkles of lights on the top flat side. As I drove, I came to realize what I was seeing wasn't right. I turned into a parking lot and lost the object behind trees for a moment, then found it again it what seemed to be a slightly different place in the sky.

At this point I was calling my husband and kids to tell them to go outside and look at the sky. They were downtown and couldn't see it. I sat in the parking lot and looked at it . It seemed to be staying in the same place and was doing nothing. At this point I thought maybe it was a street light off in the distance and that I was having some sort of visual/perseption problem. Then it changed into a perfect circle and turned slightly orange and got smaller and smaller. I thought it was disappearing. I was still on the phone to my son explaining all this to him as I watched it. I told him it was disappearing. Then it reshaped itself back into the shape that it was in the beginning. I decided to drive and see if I could get closer. I lost it behind buildings and trees. Found it momentarily again but then lost it all together. I drove back towards home on Redlands Blvd. I went to the intersection at which I first noticed the object and actually turned around again (to drive west) to see if I could see it again from that same spot. It was not there.





((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS))

I am the person whom reported this incident on 12/8. I feel like I have to comment on the note at the end of my description of the event on the nuforc reports page. The note said that I most likely was seeing Venus. This could not be the case. I am familiar with what Venus looks like this time of year. I saw a large glowing (not star like) half circle( with a few twinkles at the top) that changed shape into a complete circle and changed color from white to orange. It then shrunk to a pin point and then reversed the process and became a glowing half circle again althoug a little more stretched out (if that makes sense). The object I was looking at was MUCH larger than Venus. Again, Venus looks like a very large star with some orange color to it. I notice it often. This is NOT what I saw. Thanks. Just thought I should clarify.

((END))

NUFORC Note:

We suspect that the witness may have been looking at Venus. It is very bright, at present, and it is visible during the early evening hours in the southwestern sky. PD

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Changed Colo

Singular light in night sky. Shifted intensity irregularly. Appeared to give off red, green, white, blue, purple light.

I've never done this before. But over the past month or so, I've seen an bright light in the night sky. To the naked eye, it looks like it is the intensity of Mars when it was at its closest to Earth. But Mars is unmistakably reddish-orange. This light appeared to change in intensity quickly and irregularly. Through binoculars and a telescope other colors such as green, red, white, blue, and purple were distinguishable. I have a Canon A70 camera. I haven't learned all of the settings of the camera, but I tried to take pictures with a longer exposure so as to capture as much light as I could. Here are some of the photos I took. If you zoom in about 600% you'll see the object more clearly.

I live in Redlands, California. I'd say that the object was in a southern direction. Standing out if front of a two story house, the object was below the top of the roof. I noticed it tonight November 19,2003 at approximately 11:00 pm. I observed it for about 30 minutes. In the first few minutes I could tell it was moving relative to another star that was visible near it. After about 5 mintues or so, it seemed to stop. Under a telescope, it moved gently off of view. So it looked like it was still moving, but very very slowly. Under binoculars and telescope, the light appeared to be 'rectagular' or 'cylindrical'. It was longer up and down that it was wide from right to left. Any how, here are a few of the pics I took. I don't mind being contacted if you think it's anything worth checking into.

ufo sighting in redlands, california

this whole event took place at approximately 10:30 p.m. a couple days before Thanksgiving 2001 in the town of Redlands, California. me and my sister were headed westbound on colton avenue to meet some friends at a bar when i noticed in the sky to the south of us an object hovering in the sky. it was an orange reddish glowing oval-shaped object. it was so bizarre i asked my sister to pull the car over so that see could see it too. when we pulled over we both got out of the car and stared at this thing in the sky. about a minute elapsed and this object appeared to be dropping things from it. About 30 comet-looking balls were dropped from the craft. i told my sister it looked as if it were deploying something. each of the "comets" fell at the same velocity but were deployed at irregular intervals. during the whole event the "ufo" wobbled there as it hung in the sky. after we stood there in awe of this thing for about ten minutes we freaked out and went home. we were convinced this was the end of the world.

of course it wasn't the end of the world. i called 911 and they laughed at me, but both me and my sister saw something neither one of us had ever seen or could comprehend. we are still convinced we saw a ufo. as i listened to peter speak on coast to coast am i had to email this in to the website.

orange ball drops tiny orange lights

i was in my room after midnight and suddenly had the urge to look outside. i did, and saw a blurry orange light. i went outside and looked at it. it was a large circular blob of orange-ish light. it hovered for a few seconds, then dropped a tiny bright orange ball which fell straight down, then darted around. this happened every ten or fifteen seconds. maybe six or seven little balls dropped. they darted all around, fading in and out. finally, the big orange ball stopped, hovering for a few seconds, then faded to black very quickly, as if it was moving away very fast.

Large glowing oval object hovering in field over Redlands(San Timoteo Cyn.) ranch

We live on a 10-acre ranch in San Timoteo Canyon. Our ranch is situated between low hills to the north and the south in a rather remote area; three families live on the property in separate residences. At about 7 p.m. on Feb. 18, our neighbor's 14-year-old daughter started knocking on our door yelling that there was a flying saucer in the canyon. We didn't believe her, but we rushed outside to see what was up anyway. When we got outside we saw an enormous glowing oval-shaped object hovering in the sky to the south. The object was about a quarter of a mile away and about 300 feet off of the ground. It was a bright flourescent pale, pale greenish silver. I perceived a domed top, and a row of different colored lights running horizontally across it. It had a white light on the bottom of it. It was hanging very low above the field, and then it slowly moved west behind a hill. We ran and got our quad-runner out of the barn and raced up to the top of the hill along the power road to see if we could get another look at it, but there was nothing up there. Our neighbor suggested that it might be a blimp, but it looked nothing like a blimp, it was much too large, and there was no good explanation as to why a blimp would be flying so low through the canyon at night in the dark. We called the Redlands PD to see if anyone else had reported anything unusual, but we told no. We've been trying to get through to March ARB which is near our home, but their line has been busy.

Bright light moving accross horizon then breaking-up and falling to earth.

At first appeared to be an aircraft with unusual bright lights that seemed to suround the flying object. Its altitude appeared to be normal for aircraft coming from one the local airports. Its travil was from the west to the northeastern skies (heading toward the Plam Springs area). Speed was consistant with that of a airliner. flight path was not stable but seem to move in an up-down motion. When the object appeared over the horizon, a section fill toward the earth and then the whole object fill toward the earth and disappeared. Drove up to Crafton Hills College which gives a fair view of the valley looking to the eastern horizon, nothing abnormal seen. The lights of the opbject was very bright and appeared white to red in color. I am a Quality Assurance Administrator/ FAA-DMIR.

Flaming Green Fireball reported over mountains in San Bernardino County Sunday Jan. 2, 2000.

MUFON-San Bernardino County received the following Green Fireball report via our local UFO Sighting Report Hotline. Sunday, January 2nd, 2000, approx. 9:30PM A Redlands resident, who is also a licensed civilian pilot, witnessed a flaming green fireball descending slowly, making a (jet-like) roaring sound. The witness reports that at first he thought it was a 747 going down, it was so large. The object appeared to move at a speed of about 4-5 knots and was estimated at an altitude of 4 to 5,000 ft. when he saw it. He watched it descend in an easternly direction and said it appeared to him that the object crash landed here in the area. He describes the object as round in shape, as near as he could tell by the objects extreme brightness and the color was "a beautiful green - like burning metals". Size as large or larger than the full moon. He called the local Sheriff Dept. and newspaper and was told that it was a meteor. He said, "He's seen alot of meteors in his day but this didn't look like any meteor he'd ever ever seen before - if he didn't know better he'd swear it was under intelligent control."
