Duration: 30 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: San Carlos, CA, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Emitted beams

Two huge bright orbs flying fast and low.

Driving north down lake Murray blvd I saw the first sighting of two orbs that were bright in the sky very close together, flying in sideway motions and straight up and down .

The direction and speed was not of any normal craft. I lost sight as I drove, however I had to go back in that direction 15min after leaving the area. I was driving down the same road and searched the sky to see if they were still there.

This time I not only saw two orbs again, only they were huge and bright! Like white bright beams. Very low from the sky this time and moving fast! I couldn't believe my eyes and my daughter witnessed this too. They were so low and so bright that I know we couldn't be the only witnesses. It actually freaked me out, too close for comfort! But then within seconds it's like they shrunk up and were tiny lights that disappeared into the sky.

Large ball of light low in the sky streaking at high speed towards ground.

Large ball of white light low in the sky streaking at high speed towards ground. Diminished in size as it shot overhead until finally shrunk to nothing. No surrounding light or noise. Looked the same size, brightness and shape as a full moon on a clear night at first sight. Several other motorists stopped to watch as it shot past us.

Duration: 25 -40 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: San Carlos, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Left a trail

I can't explain what i saw but it is the first time in my life i saw something that i couldn't make up a story about.

I was driving back home, north bound up hwy 280 at around 1am from a friend’s house in Santa Clara which is about 25 miles south from where I live. There was hardly any traffic in the south bound lanes so I didn’t have any vision problems from on- coming traffic. I’m very observant of my surrounds and even the sky. The pacific coast is to my left as I’m driving north ans I was looking up at the sky and I noticed to my left at 10 O’clock high, I saw this bright green object hovering and it was stationary and it was like a fluorescent color.i was looking back and forth from the hwy to up at the object and then it moved in a straight line because when it moved, it left a green trail ,same color as the object. This lasted maybe between 25 to 45 seconds but after it moved everything disappeared. But while I was looking at the object, I made sure there were no reflections from the car hood, windshield, or any nearby objects such as traffic lights causing a reflect! ion on my windshield. Approximate distance the object traveled was maybe 10-15 miles. Sorry but I didn't have time to get my camera out since I was driving and it was only for a very short time. I do not drink,smoke,or do drugs and my IQ is 155\

Eerie rectangular shape in san carlos CA

I was delivering Pizza and noticed a rhombus/parrellagram shape with 3 flashing lights on it. I thought it was a plane at first but it was flying way to low and way to slow. It was a very very eerie event, because I see planes all the time.

Duration: 10 seconds

Location: San Carlos, CA, USA

Shape: Formation


Independent lights forming a chevron passed silently at a very high altitude at a very high rate of speed; each light shifted position

I was sitting on my patio at approximately 23:15 local time in San Carlos, California, looking in the general direction of northeast to east (040 degrees) almost straight up, when I witnessed approximately 9 to 11 independent lights in the formation of a chevron pass overhead at a very high altitude and speed in a straight direction to the west or southwest. They were definitely independent objects as the chevron changed symmetry as it passed over. They seemed to shift position slightly as they moved across the sky, but still maintained a basic chevron formation.

Shape: Oval


A bright light moving in a straight line too fast for a plane and too slow for a meteor

A bright white oval, moving in a straight line, far too slow for a meteorite and far too fast for an airplane.

The light did not blink or have a tail. It moved beyond the horizon. At first it seemed like a meteorite, then it seemed like a plane falling out of the sky, given its slowness and size. The straight-line trajectory makes me think it was most likely a meteor or a falling piece of space junk.

Red Triangles Near San Francisco Bay Area Northern Sky

Aproximately 23:00 PST, a friend and I were heading to the market when I noticed 2 orange/red triangles in the northern sky. The objects resebled triangles with a red dot similar to a nuclei near their base. The objects appeared to be moving away in a north easterly direction. During their visability the Objects would revolve around one another and eventually appeared to merge into a singular object ( Possible Angle of Vision responsible ) The "Merged Object" began to move away in an accelerated fassion again in the North Easterly direction. Aproximately 5 minutes after loosing sight of the Objects, a plume with a redish/orange coloration began to appear faintly at a great distance. I would Estimate at the 40,000 Ft+ lvl. This plume began to grow and then out of nowhere a new triangle became visible near the location where the first two were sighted. Aproximately 20 witness were on hand from a small valentines day party that was taking place.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 28094
Occurred: 1985-07-31 22:30 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2003-03-12 03:03 Pacific
Duration: 20 seconds
No of observers: 2

Location: San Carlos, CA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Left a trail, Aircraft nearby, Landed

I observed a ball of light trailing Space Shuttle, then watched in astonishment as it streaked behind the hills.

First, I'm not 100% sure of the day although it was in July 1985 and roughly 2230 for sure. I'm an amateur astronomer and I have frequently followed the Space Shuttle(s) and other satellites. I had read in the news that the shuttle would be overhead so I went outside to my backyard a few minutes early to get adjusted to the dark. I saw the Shuttle exactly at the time that was mentioned on the news. This was the first time I had seen a Space Shuttle overhead. I yelled for my mom to come out to see. At this time I noticed another light trailing the shuttle maybe the distance of your hand if you held it straight up. This ball of light was slightly smaller than the shuttle and I forget the color. Anyway as my mom was walking out the small ball of light shot silently and instantaneously down behind the foothills. I was facing west at the time. All I saw was a beam of light somewhat similar to a bright Perseid meteor shooting behind the hills. The ball of light was gone. My mom never saw it since she was still walking outside. I've still remembered it to this day since I'm pretty skeptical of UFO reports but I don't know of any explanation for this. I'm filing this report because I'm wondering if anyone has seen similar things especially near a Space Shuttle.

Date in July 1985 is approximate. PD
