Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Left a trail

A blue-lighted craft performed zigzag jumps in the sky just below the clouds.

As we were walking out a guest from our house, we all noticed a bright blue light in the eastern sky about a mile out. It darted in multiple directions at a high rate of speed, almost instantaneously. The light appeared to increase in brightness every time it darted. We all observed it perform unusual maneuvers for it to be any fixed-wing, or rotor-wing aircraft (including drones). At one point, it appeared to rapidly pulsate before darting downward and fading away. It then would appear fully illuminated again and dart upward at a high rate of speed, then diagonally and back again. Three of us were able to photograph and record the object on multiple devices. Upon inspection of the recordings/photographs. The object appeared to be teardrop shaped and trailed blue-firey streaks as it darted.

Orange ball of light that disappeared/reappeared multiple times

Initially Witnessed the object while travelling South on Hwy 5 passing by the Port of Stockton and Hwy 4 Interchange. It appeared to be somewhere between Stockton and Tracy (looking South, South/West from Hwy 5 S). Seemingly just one bright orange object about the size of a star as that's all it appeared to be at first. The object then disappeared then reappeared slightly larger. It moved, leaving a short trail of light behind it and seemed to stop, disappear/reappear, and then break apart into tiny fragments before reforming back into one circular shape. The object then disappeared for about a minute or two and reappeared only for a moment as we approached French Camp in an even more Southernly direction. This time much larger and brighter before disappearing finally.

Location details: Brookside neighborhood

Shape: Oval


White object moving north to south across the sky, no sound, no condensation trail.

The object was moving north to south at 7:17pm. I looked up flight data and didn't see any aircraft traveling in this direction. It was moving rather fast and went all the way across the sky. No condensation trail and no sound at all. I didn't see any wings. It appeared to be pretty high up and must have covered 20 miles in 30 seconds. Note - there is a dragon fly in the image as well, about 30 ft above me off to the left.

I've been trying to look up most evenings and I've never seen anything odd. I have spa and will star gaze from time to time in the evening. I can see satellites from time to time, but those appear much smaller and moving slower. Look more like a slow moving star. This was nothing like that and still very sunny outside.

My wife and I enjoy sitting outside in the evening in our backyard. I notice a number of planes regularly. Most are traveling west to east from the bay area and are very easy to make out. We see helicopters from time to time as well. All of those are very clear and obvious. If this was a drone, it appeared to be very high in the sky and came from at least Lodi and disappeared well south of here past Lathrop, Ca. Looking up flights during that time, nothing was in the area moving in that direction.

Shape: Oval


Distant, grey object that was at least circular frozen in air for short duration until it flew off extremely quickly.

I was outside in the summer in my backyard. It's been a while, so I'm most likely misremembering the date, but I know it was around 1 p.m. or so. I was just bored as heck, standing around and sitting in a swing-chair, until I walked across my backyard to where I can see above a nearby neighborhood and the trees, where I saw a fairly distant (a few miles most likely) grey, mostly flat object that had what looked like a dome, but it seemed to be at an angle pointing a bit towards me but not entirely. I've good distance vision despite bad eyesight, and I saw it stay still for half a minute, but caught it flying off due west so quickly that it was a blur. I wish it was a tad closer for more detail, but I assume it was there for longer before I looked at it. I've no idea, but I soon went inside while just trying to not acknowledge it.

It appeared randomly and it disappeared randomly. We were at a park with other people seeing the same thing. Thought it was a plane or something but it moved to the left for a period of time then it seemed as it went upwards and eventually disappeared.
My friend suggested a drone, I mentioned a lantern? Maybe I moved too quick that it made the object disappear in the video but Whatever it was it actually, definitely, disappeared.

On 02/12/2021 approximately 0508 hours, I was outside leaving for work. I noticed a trail of lights in the sky to the east of Stockton California. The lights started at a point in the sky and appeared to be traveling south east to a second point in the sky. As a light would reach the second point in the sky it would disappear and another light would appear at the original point in the sky and follow the same trail.

There were 12 white lights when I noticed and they were all flickering. The lights travelled in a straight line. This continued for approximately 2 minutes. While trying to get pictures and video, the lights stopped appearing from the original point in the sky and all travelled to the second point and disappeared.

5 very brights lights

A friend and I were sitting in his car and I was looking up at the sky through the sun roof and noticed a bright light really high up in the sky. The light seemed odd because I’m used to seeing flashing lights from airplanes. At this point I told my friend to look at the light to verify I wasn’t loosing my mind. He quickly confirmed we were looking at something different. And out of no where the light shot up even higher swiftly and disappeared. No more than 30 seconds later here comes 2 more bright lights from the same direction and literally did the same thing. I thought it was done but no, 2 more came and shot up into the dark sky. In total we seen 5 different objects come and go in a matter of seconds but seemed like minutes

Round, orange glowing craft in the sky, no sound.

It was a round, Orange, glowing object and it changed speeds from going very fast to quite slow and changed direction. It did not make any noise. It flew East. My boyfriend is quite skilled in identifying aircrafts and satellites and he was baffled at what this could have been. We were able to get the last sighting on video. It was either one object that looped back in the same direction three times or three separate objects.

You can see the object slowly moving eventually. Finally after about 20 minutes it was gone. It is a very clear night. My husband and I can clearly see constellations. It had to be a number of miles away.

Yellowish star-like light traveling in a bouncy, uneven motion through the sky.

I was driviing south on a neighborhood street when I noticed a light in the sky ahead of my car. It was traveling in the same direction and almost on the same track. My first thought was a shooting star but it was moving too slow.

Then I thought a an airplace or helicopter but it was a yellowish color, kind of fuzzy, and didn't have navigation lights. My windows were up so I couldn't tell if it made any noise. It moved with a bouncy, staggering kind of moviement like it was traveling on an invisible bumpy road or traveling against a heavy wind..

I would estimate its altitude at aout 5000 feet. I lost sight of it when I drove under some trees and made a left turn to my destination.

I was taking pictures that day and night. I stopped on the side of the road to get a picture of a tree in silhouette of some lighted clouds behind it. It was not until the next day that I was able to see what it was that move across the sky. There are three pictures of something first taken at 20:03:22 a blur can be seen flying into the cloud, the 2nd taken at 20:03:23 the blur is gone now there is a shape in the cloud that resembles a reptile with wings silhouetted.

Then I seen something move and took the 3rd picture at 20:03:27 and something is flying into another cloud. And that the only thing I seen that night was movement from one cloud to another against the storm gust of 25mphr. I can vaguely remember talking to someone there and in 8 pictures later I can see car tail lights can be seen in the 8th picture 30 secs from the first.

Orange red sphere over Stockton Ca on Thanksgiving dusky

On Thanksgiving dusk, I was with my inlaws in the back yard of their house in Stockton Ca. I was telling them oddly enough about a documentary about aliens - when I stopped mid sentence having noticed the orange orb in the sky that seemed to appear out of nowhere. I alerted my inlaws and they got up and saw the same thing.

It was glowing brightly and was orange red. It was maybe 15000 feet, silently moved across the sky for about 1 minute. My inlaws and myself watched it until it suddenly disappeared. It seemed to be heading south west.

I fumbled trying to get my phone out and take a picture or video, but I couldn’t get it out in time before the Orb was gone.

I'm a carpenter and married father of 2.5 kids (one's still in the oven). The kids and I were out for a bike ride on the D&R Canal path and we stopped at the playground in Bull's Island Recreation Area around 3pm in the afternoon. It was bright and sunny without any clouds in sight, and I noticed a single, extremely bright, but small, white to pale yellowish light at very high altitude.

At first I assumed it was a high flying plane that was reflecting sunlight. I thought it was odd but didn't think much of it really.

After a few minutes I looked up again, not expecting to still see it there, but it was, and seemed like it had barely moved at all.

So at that point I started really paying attention to it and noticed it was slowly getting brighter then dimmer and even disappearing from sight completely sometimes.

Over the next hour or so it very slowly moved across the sky from the northeast toward the south, never actually reaching the horizon. The kids eventually got bored at the playground, so we moved on to go walk across the foot bridge, and by the time we made it through the trees and into clear skyline, again, I couldn't relocate it.

I did attempt to take a few pictures with my iPhone, because it is all I had, but nothing can be seen in the photos.

The "Ufo" was a bright sphere, star looking object. It had a foggy dome around it with a blue ray of light shining down towards the ground. The light lasted about 2-5 minutes. It started out small in the middle of no where then expanded within time. It was beautiful but creepy because of it fading slowly and the bright light disappearing.

Triangular formation of white blurry lights over venetian park Stockton Ca

I was at Venetian park in Stockton Ca last night with some friends and as we were conversating one friend all of a sudden shouted ((deleted--"what")) is that! I scanned around to see what he was talking about and when i looked up i saw a triangular formation of 3 blurry white lights. I could not tell if it was a solid triangular craft or 3 seperate orbs butthey looked like they were eminating heat difracting the light around it. sadly it went out of view behind some trees before I could pull out my phone and attempt to record anything on my shitty camera. As I chased after it to get a better view it was just gone but it was at low altitude and only looked like it was going roughly 60 mph southbound.

Afte ra few minutes of looking around for more objects another friend of mine pointed a similar formation out but higher and going north possibly the same craft/orbs which just appeared flew for a short distance and suddenly was gone. My initial thought was mabey it was a triangu! lar craft with a partial cloaking device as it did appear to come from nowhere it might have been in the process of cloaking and as I chased it was completely invisible or it sped up I really don't know. I thought I would be more prepared for such a sighting but it actually shook me up a little though I thought I had seen a few,once before for sure but that was a while ago. There did seem to be an influx of helicopter traffic after the sighting over the amount of airplanes flying by which where very distinguishable it was a clear night. The object/s where completely silent.

Seven Beautiful luminous orange orange orbs dance away above Stockton California

I was looking at the moon around 11pm, and immediately noticed about 7 massively bright orange/amber "orbs," perfectly aligned in almost a triangle shape. They were still at first, and then started to dance around each other, and some even merged into one another to form a bigger and brighter ball of light. They were pretty far away, but massively luminously bright and pulsating.

I yelled for my girlfriend to grab her phone but by the time she grabbed it and opened the video app, we only managed to film the last one that was fading away in the distance. It was like nothing I've seen before. So beautiful! No air craft or drone that far could emit such massive light, travel so fast, and move in the different directions, that I witnessed.

They disappeared headed northeast from Stockton, toward Highway 99, maybe more toward Lockford, CA.

So beautiful and majestic and defied laws of physics in my humble non-expert opinion.

I have no idea what i wittnessed, but it was not natural.

Looking into the sky on the hood of my car. In the south east sky over Stockton, Ca. I thought I had seen a bright flash of white light about the size of a bright star. No big deal "right." I rubbed my eyes and continued to look thinking maybe I saw a plane. After that thought I starred into a fixed spot between 2 stars. Then every 5 to 10 seconds, I was able to see this same light over and over. Only differance being that it would appear from the southeast to the northeast over and over.

I thought maybe a sattalite....until the last 30 or 45 seconds of my experiance. In those last seconds, 2 white lights blinked next to each other a few times stationary. Then 2 seperate like shooting stars going in seperate directions left the sky. Wow!!! That is all I can say!! I have heard the stories....read alot of stuff. But this was the first time i ever questioned what did I just see.

Flying saucers seen in Stockton.

Late at night, dogs in neighborhood were barking up a storm, went outside to check what was going on. Shined flashlight around property and couldn't see anything.

Went back inside to relax, and all dogs started going crazy again, look out window and see these three objects with lights on them flying around neighborhood.

At first my wife thought it was a helicopter or airplane so I watched it and I know how a helicopter and airplane look and what kind of lights they have and how long it takes for them to accelerate I to air. So I waited and watched these things go up in the sky and accelerate and go up fast and disappear in the sky not like an airplane or a helicopter.

Then about 3 minutes later I went out to sit on front porch they came out of nowhere again and hovered over our neighborhoods house across the way from us, I used my binoculars this time and see a saucer shaped flying object with red lights around it like a ring a glass shaped top and silver color type ship, watched it about 30 seconds, then it drifted up in sky again and disappeared.

Came from southbound Stockton, heading towards the northeast. Flew couple hundred feet above apartment complexes, at a slow steady pace. Its side view seem to glare from city lights, giving it a shape that was gigantic. At least two stories in height and close to 4 stories in length. Seemingly blending in with night sky, making it hard to identify.

As it was leaving 4 lights on the backend shining white shaped like a square, lights were on each corner. It sounded similar to planes flying overhead with slightly deeper tone.

I had 2 minutes before it flew out of sight. I can't believe how low something that big was flying above my apartments. I'm not making this up, I saw this object and couldn't believe my eyes!!!

Watching the lights on it back end almost completely resembling 4 planes perfectly aligned in a square formation.

Red Lights In the sky

Was walking home as I got closer to my apartment building I normally always look up at the building. As I look up I noticed 4 red lights in a line formation kind of look like circles but bright red like a light buld shine they had like a blinking to th lights. I thought to myself what is that.

So I hurried into the apartment building I ran up the stairs to the third floor which is the floor I live on and got my mom and told her to hurry and come outside to the fire escape. I told her to look and tell me if she could see what I was seeing. I didnt want to look like I was crazy.

At this time the objects were closer together in a circle shape and stared to just move around slowly in diferent directions.

My mom said she was gonna run in and grab her phone cause my phone was dead.

When she came back out most of them just vanished. I did get to capture 2 of the objects one photo is kind of fuzzy. These objects were observe facing west. I will try to email or send regular mail the picture I have. If I cant send them I will have them printed out and put away in case u send someone out to get them.

10/20/13 UFO sighting in Stockton. .?

That night we were driving to my mother's house..

My husband looked up into the sky screamed for me to look, and there were 8 orange to red lights in a row horizontally and they just started moving making, perfect alignment shapes, from left to right and back a again we stopped in the middle of the street to see the whole view as well as our co-worker behind us..

And they at last made a triangular shape then went back into a straight line this time straight across all lined up and just disappeared in a flash and that was it! No sign of anything being there; just the lights went off!

By this time we were standing out of our car just dumbfounded, amazed and everything else all in one?? Co- worker says it's the government testing__ but me I'm not too sure..

Possible UFO sighting in Northern Ca.

My friends had reported that they had seen a light in the sky, that was stationary, and then would bounce around, then returning to its stationary position. This was a week before the sighting that we saw. He showed me the light, which I insisted is probably a satellite or the International Space Station. They insisted that it moved. I did not see it move that night, but they continue to say that it moves. It is clearly visible from where we were at. We had to go away from where we were at to get a clear view, as we are in a city.

2 Lights In The Night Sky

It was around 10:15pm last night on the date of 03/24/10 when the three of us friends were outside talking about going to a lake tomorrow, then one of us noticed that a light was moving across the sky very fast with a trail of light behind it. At first we just thought of it as an airplane or a shooting star but when we saw another one go in the opposite direction we payed close attention to them and then we saw the two lights appear out of no where and they just were sitting there and not moving but they were glowing and we all just were stuck thinking in our heads of what these lights could be. Then we looked at each other in "aw" and we were just flabbergasted. After about 3 minutes the light just flew across the sky again in the same direction but it seemed like as the both melted together and disappeared into the dark night sky. All three of us after that just started talking about what it could be and everyday we try to figure out what it was.

UFO DANCING IN THE SKY

I was just getting back from my job and decided to take a shower. After doing so I went outside to walk my dog with my wife. I was busy looking at my dog when my wife just said, "What is that in the sky".

At first I just gave it a quick look and told her it was just a star. I ignored it and looked at my dog again. She said no its not a star because its moving. So I look up at the "star" again but this time it was moving to the right from my point of view.

Again I ignored it and told her it was a helicopter, but as I was about to look away i saw it move quickly to the left and then it caught my attention. As it moved around in the sky my wife and I stared at this object just moving so fast from left to right. I asked my wife if she knew what it was but she didnt reply to me.

What me and my wife saw that night, I dont know but it was not any airplane or helicopter.

Spherical black UFO over Stockton

Well I was outside of work, outside the security gate, when I saw what I thought was a blackish purple mylar spinning balloon. I would say it was perhaps 500-1000 feet off the ground, but its hard to say, because, well I know this sounds weird, but its shape was hard to make out the closer it got. It looked spherical, and was scintillating, and curiously, the air around it seemed to shimmer - it was hard to see its edge, that's the only way I can describe it. It moved silently from my left, and I was thinking to myself that if it stopped it would have be a UFO. And then, as if it heard my thought, it stopped directly in front of me! I just stared at it, and I had the most curious feeling of being watched, hard to describe, just felt as if it realized I was looking - so I waved at it. It then started to slowly go up into the sky. As it was going up, its color seemed to change to a whitish metallic, almost like sodium. And then, it began to flash. A bright, neon green, then pink, and yellow. It also - sounds weird again - seemed to phase in and out of the air. It would seem to disappear, then I would see one of the flashes, and it would appear again at some distance and disappear. This continued until it was a tiny speck in the sky and then I couldn't see it anymore.

Interesting day.

If you can help me identify what I saw, or let me know if other people have seen similar craft, I would be very appreciative.

Thank you for your time.

On 08/02/2008 at approximately 2AM, my passenger and I witnessed a large burning object falling SW near Cal State Univ. - Stockton

While driving NE on a Hwy 4 connector road on Friday, August 2nd at approximately 2AM, my passenger and I witnessed a large burning object falling SW from the sky and seeming to land near the campus of Cal State University, Stanislaus-Stockton in the city of Stockton, California Since we were en route to our destination, we did not exit to observe where this object landed, but instead called 911 to file a report the incident while continuing to drive on Hwy 4.

At first we thought it was a falling star and then I said falling stars skim the atmosphere! Then we thought possibly a meteor, but did not see any explosion or fire from the landing.

As we continued to drive, we did a relative size comparison such as: bigger than my Honda CR-V car tire, bigger than a merge sign, bigger than the small bushes lining the highway. From the distance that we saw the object, we agreed that it was approximately as big as a small car such as a Metro or similar. The shape was hard to determine due to the trail of fire.

The flames were coming up from the head and there was a short flame tail behind it. The color was bright white when we first saw it at approximately 1,000 feet up and then became a greenish color (which my passenger commented was the color of a hot object cooling down).

I have been unable to locate any news reports of this incident on the internet, newspapers or local TV news websites.

A truly great service. . .

Peter, I have been a fan of your site for many years now. You have performed an invaluable service for a countless number of people who are fascinated by the subject of your work.

I have been increasingly disturbed by the number of negative comments that you have received regarding the "timeliness" of your postings. For any of your readers who might feel compelled to complain, let me say to them "don’t do it." The data that you compile and disseminate is of such importance that I am fearful that too much of those uninformed comments will cause you to throw in the towel and give it up. To those who might wish to complain, please know that this effort is made for your benefit and entertainment on truly "shoestring resources" (both financial and manpower). To my knowledge, Mr. Davenport receives no compensation at all for devoting his life to this cause. Before you file a complaint, think about the effort that must go into receiving, reading, cataloging, and posting the 400+ reports that I’m sure he receives every month. If you still feel justified in complaining, don’t bother checking the site.

Peter, thanks for all you do.

30 objects in an hour.

We began seeing these objects in the stars on the 9th and have appeared in the sky in the same manor till today on the 11th. They appear to be stars, but they move around. They fly straight at times and other times in lurching motions. They can be dim in light or very bright--brighter than the stars. We saw 30 in an hour on the first night. I tried to video tape them, but my video camera wouldn't pick them up. On the second night, we counted 40 in two hours and they didn't seem to stop, they just kept on coming across the sky. We did notice an anomaly with the sightings. We could almost predict when one was coming because it became very still, there would be no breeze, then we would hear a slight "whoosh" sound and a falling star would fall. Then a few more would come across the sky. The secound night I caught a split second of one on my video camera because it was so bright that it was blinding if you looked at it. We even saw one change course to chase a plane in the sky. This was a very strange thing for us to witness, we felt like we where being invaded and will probably see more tonight. Maybe these are just sattelites, but we dont think that is the case. We also see 2-3 white cigar shaped objects during the day, that appear to be incorperated into the seeding programs in our area. We don't know what they are, but hopfully others are seeing them in kansas.

Watched a "V" shaped object cross the sky. The object had 5 or 6 white or blue lights on the back of each wing. The light stayed on during the duration on the sighting.

The object was flying lower than a commercial aircraft but higher than a small plane. At ground level the object was about 1 inch long with my hand extended. The object was traveling from the south to the north, about the same speed as a commercial aircraft.

commercial plane veeres off course to avoid possible collision with ufo

I was unloading some material off my work trailer and looking up as i do alot now after having seen several ufos in the past three years or so,but this is my first report. I have many commercial aircraft that flies overhead, that night wasnt any different.A large airplane fliing a northeasterly heading had a bright shiny object rapidly approaching from behind it maybe a mile or so and slightly to the planes south side as the object approached to nearly along side the airplane,it veered to a due north course and the object stayed on the northeasterly heading until it went out of sight or dissappeared,was unable to locate plane as to whether it stayed on a new coarse or back to a northeasterly heading

Very bright round light hovered while changing size then faded away.

Saw a round light, about the size of a street light, hovering in the northern sky. Then faded down about half its original size, then it appeared to back up to about 3/4 size, then very quickly faded away to size of a star and kept fading until it disappeared.The whole process lasted about one minute.

A triangular craft 200ft high and 500 foot from my position..hovering

Decided to take a ride through the country last night.I live in a rual location in north Baldwin county and trees in my yard limit my view of the sky. I had been out in the yard with nothing seen but the usual commerical/private traffic. At around 21:45 I got in my car and proceeded to take a ride. Went south down co. rd. 47 (Rabun Rd.)and turned right onto co. rd. 96 traveling west. At the end of co. rd. 96 I took a left on hwy 59 and proceeded south several miles to co. rd. 94 (may tower rd.)where I turned left. Now I'm heading back east torward county rd 47. After traveling a short distance down 94 i noticed a car back behind me and thought to myself "thats all i need , a car riding my butt" . About 2 miles down 94 there is a curve to the right. As I rounded the curve there the damn thing was.....just sitting there...right in front of me ....in a hover. A triangluar craft about 200 ft are less off the ground and about 500 feet from my position. It had a white light in the bottom at each apex and no strobes could be seen. I was traveling at a slow speed (aprox 35 to 40 mph) and at this time the car behind me had caught up (about 200 yds max behind me). About 200 yds up on the left is a drive which leads to a friends house so pulled into the drive and stopped to allow the car behind to go by. Durning this i'm still looking at this craft sitting in a hover. AS the car behind me passes by i backed out into the road. The front of my car is now facing the object ( now I'm facing west again). This quick turn around must have alerted the craft to the fact that I had seen it because at this point it starts moving off to the SW. I gave chase hoping it would stop again but it proceeded to gain speed until it was out of sight. The craft clearly was triangular in shape and made no noise. I will send a detailed map via e-mail shortly. Also as stated above I turned around in a drive which leads to a friends house. This thing had to pass right over his house prior to me seeing it. I will call him this afternoon whe! n he get s in from work to see if he may have seen it. Also at this time let me state when turning around in the drive i noticed a car coming down the drive as coming from my friends house. But at this point I was giving chase so did not stay to see who it was. I would estimate the craft to be 50 to 70 ft from point to point. The color appeared to be black.

AN OVAL CRAFT CHANGES SPEED AND DIRECTION LIKE NOTHING I HAVE EVER SEEN!

I was invited to a cinco de mayo party at a friends home. Approximately 8 p.m. that evening my wife and another person were sitting at a table on a deck overlooking the Delaware River. The other side of the river is approximately 800 feet away and a rise of trees graduates to a ridge. The direction was West. The party was in its early stages when I heard a reaction by someone to "come quickly...look!" I quickly ran out on the porch and looked West above the ridge at the sky on the other side of the river. This is what I saw: A pale yellow oval object moving at a relatively slow speed heading East towards my friends home. At first I thought it was an unusual aircraft( strange shape and size...larger than a helicopter, smaller than airplane). There were some clouds in the sky and there was moonlight. Then SUDDENLY the object changed direction almost 90 degrees south)- and also moved high rate of speed... instantly , zooming out of sight!. My thoughts were that it could not possibly be any aircraft I have ever seen in my 53 years . I saw something that stayed with me for a long time in my mind...could not get over the idea that seeing is believing. To make matters more interesting MY FRIEND IS A BOOK PUBLISHER AND ONE OF HIS AUTHORS OF ((title deleted)) PREDICTED WE WOULD HAVE ALIENS VISIT THE AREA THAT EVENING!!!!!! I went to the party to have a good time and didn't give this prognostication a second thought. I BELIEVE I HAVE EXPERIENCED MY FIRST U.F.O SIGHTING!

Two strange bright objects at dusk in the central valley.

As my wife was driving southbound and I was looking to the west, I noticed two bright objects in the sky. The sun had just set so I could tell they were not stars, as there was still plenty of light in the sky. They looked orange in color. They did not flash or dim. They were a constant color of orange. I described to my wife what I was looking at. They were both at the same point in the horizon. The one on the right was stationary, as the one to the left slowly approached it. My wife said it was a plane or helicopter. I stared in awe as the two lights combined into one. That is when I told my wife I was looking at a pair of UFO's. She tried to see what I was looking at but had to pay attention to the road. I did not look away the whole time. Then, maybe 5-10 seconds later, the lights split up again and the one on the right returned to its original position. It was then that it disapeared for a few seconds, then reappeared for a few moer and then disapeared completely. All the while the one stationary light never even moved or blinked, or anything. I had no idea this web site was around and I happened to come across it on June 15, 2002, and reported my account.

Saucer hovers three stories above car, lights around rim, no sound,

Suddenly there was a huge gray saucer with colored lights around the rim that flashed circularly around it. It was coming down lower and lower and closer to the car lower than the 3 story Pac Bell building on March Lane. It seemed as wide as the goodyear blimp. I was cutting behind the building to get to the aparment complex next door. I rolled down the window to hear a motor and it was completely silent. That was when i got scared. The car almost stalled. At that point I panicked and prayed to God that we not get taken up as I have heard that happens to people. I checked my clock to make sure no time would had been lost. I took my adult friend and her 2 children home (in the complex) and then raced back home. When I got home I went to my backyard and could see it in a distance moving toward UOP. I was also shocked at the boldness of it moving so slowly and so low. My back yard was on Brookside Road at the levy. I watched my clock and arrived home without losing any time. I was stunned to the point of not seeming able to speak about it and my friend was as well. A couple of years later I brought it up and asked her and her children exactly what they saw and it was the same. Just recently I have felt able to tell others. I still cannot even believe we saw it and I really do believe that had I not prayed we would have been taken up. I am now a 55 year old woman and at the time was managing properties in Stockton for a developer out of Roseville. I had been with them for close to 3 years. I am a professional woman and at that time my children were enrolled in private school. My friend was in her late 20's at the time and the children were 10 and 8 years old. Neither of us used drugs or alchohol. Needless to say it was very frightening and I still look over my shoulder in fear. When I was about 6 years old I had seen a saucer very low moving fast across the horizon in Bay City, Michigan.

Multiple contrails on polar trajectory

Not certain of date memory fades, somewhere between 1999 and 2000 on a crystal clear morning.

I witnessed multiple contrails in the early morning traveling on a polar path from the south at extreme altitude (i.e. well above 35000'). The formation was relatively evenly spaced from western to eastern horizons and eventually disappeared over the northern horizon. Possibly, multiple missile tests? Or, b52 formations? Not sure.

I woke wife and daughter to confirm as it looked like a massive ICBM launch based on the altitude and polar trajectory. Possibly, from Edwards or Vandenburg? I witnessed a similar even in the late 70's with only one trail and apparent staging which turned out to be a test launch from Vandenburg. This one has always thrown me though.

There were just too many for a test launch.

Calls to AFB, Airport, Paper etc, turned up nothing and unlike the 1970's incident, I am unable to find any corroboration of the event on the internet.

My family and I can't possibly be the only ones to have seen this!

ok i will never forget this but the above info is not quite accurate one was a fireball, one was triangular. he he dig this, & i'm telling the truth. the fireball was moving somewhat slow, at first i thought it was a meteor, but it was moving way too slow. it was moving from n.w. to s.e. more south than east.it was also coming down.when all of a sudden there was a white colored blast and a blue pulse of light ( this is the hard part to describe) shot towards it. it was at a very fast speed. almost like a laser, they met & exploded. this happened about a half mile in front of me. i drive truck, a truck driver behind me saw it too. he asked me over the c.b."did you see that?" i told him yes. we discussed what it might have been inconclusively some of the things; a dark triangle ilumminated during the white flash,a red blink just before the flash. we kinda thought it might be star wars shooting down a missle but the speed & shapes were just wrong. i hope maybe that someone else reported this because i'm really curious, what was that. i would have reported it sooner, but, no p.c. never had listened to A.B. & didn't even know there was a place to report it w/out being drug tested lol thank you, now i've told

A triangle shaped object with three orangish red lights, was silent and large, that was low to the ground.

My Brother and a group of four friends were walking back to our house about four or five blocks away following a large craft that went from being glowing bright light to turning off the light, by that time they had arrived at my moms place were they startled us out of my house with screams of bloody murder, me and my youngest brother ran out to a black craft that lit up with three large orangeish red lights one light on each end of the triangle shaped craft. The completely,silent object had absolutely no sound and was so low to the ground that I felt as though I could throw a rock at it. I won't forget seeing the orangeish red lights come on one at a time it was so scary they were giant I had two brothers and three family friends that saw it and were so scared they won't even talk about it. Oh and when I came outside they were screaming about something falling out of the back of it. I watched it and followed it as it went off into the distance. I lived in the middle of a densely populated city of Stockton I can't believe no one reported it to the media I was only seventeen at the time and was pretty shook up and scared they were coming back. Oh and Hail-Bop comet was visible in the sky at that time which was scary enough to look at. I will try and have one of the others come forth and tell their story about that night in 1997 they may have a better way of explaining what they saw. Thank you very much for this opportunity to tell my story.

A woman called to report that she and her daughter, after going to a pharmacy, were driving home from Lodi to Stockton along Route 3 and other rural roads. Suddenly, her daughter saw a big round disc, with bright lights inside its rim, that appeared to be following them.

They lost it and got back in the car (!!), and went to a second pharmacy. When they left the second pharmacy, they witnessed the object a second time, this time right beside their car. They got a very good look at the object this time.

It appeared to them to be the size of an aircraft--perhaps a 747--and it was distinctly round. When asked, the caller said she thought it was more spherical than circular. It had many white lights on it, perhaps a hundred or more.

The occupants of other cars saw it, too. There were possibly two other cars that had stopped, and the occupants were standing outside looking at the object. They were stopped in an area which is totally dark, with nothing but fields around.

They called the Lodi Police to inquire whether there had been other calls. They said there had been no other calls.

I gave the caller Ruben Uriarte's address.

UFO witnessed hovering above us in close proximity at night

My father and I were driving home through our residential neighborhood in North Stockton one night in 1996. My curfew was 11pm, and it was a 12 minute drive home. We came to a stop sign on Stanfield drive, and there was an unusually bright light outside that confused us. We looked out of the windshield at the direction of the light which appeared to be coming from above the streetlight. After a minute of sitting in the car wondering what was going on, we wanted to get out to take a closer look. My dad put the car in park at the stop sign and we walked closer to the streetlight, almost underneath it, and looked up. The light was definitely coming from ABOVE the streetlight. Not high up in the sky, not from the back of the streetlight, but from right above the streetlight (like 10-20 feet maybe?). There was no noise or wind. The one light was bright and white, unlike the street lamp. There was a darkness behind and around the light, that was darker than the sky. We realized someTHING was there and that whatever we were seeing could probably see us too, so we got scared and ran to the car and sped off. After arriving at home a few minutes later, I checked the clock to make sure we hadn’t “lost time” (aka gotten abducted), and made sure it was still the same day.

My father and I didn’t talk about it again. A few months afterwards, we grew apart and did not talk for 7 years. After reuniting, I asked him if what I remembered of our UFO encounter was true, and he confirmed the details of the story. Dad doesn’t believe in aliens but he also can’t explain what we saw. If it was not alien spacecraft, our next guess would have to be government aircraft—whose technology to safely hover soundlessly, windless, and nearly invisibly so close to homes is a highly guarded secret (but why??).

I was captured, encapsulated, I was one with that light, the objects were light.

I was travelling north on I-5 at approx. 80 mph. I was alone in the car, I had to urinate and was speeding towards a rest area I knew was thirty three miles ahead. There were no other vehicles around me when I saw to my right out in the fields paralleling the interstate a very bright light. I looked into it and it appeared to be a combine working in the field and loading a big truck. At the moment of this incident I thought it odd this would be going on in the middle of the night and that the light could blind someone.

Then the combine and big dump type truck seemed to be Tonka type toy's. Then the rest area was at hand and I realized I had to urinate quite badly. I slowed and followed the rest area road info the parking lot and parked.

As I did so another smaller car followed mine and parked to my left and the driver got out and hurried over to my car as I was opening the door and he said "did you see them?" I said "see what?" He said "the bright lights following your car." I said "no, but I did see the combine with the light shinning on the highway"

he said "not that, the round lights that were all around your car?" I said "no , just the combine and I have to use the toilet fast.

I ran to the rest room and when I came back I went to the passenger side of his car and a woman put the window down and there were three children in the back seat. The woman and the three girls in the back seat were obviously frightened. The woman asked me again if I had seen the lights and I told her the same as I had told her husband. "No, I only saw the combine light but that it had held me and I did not remember the last thirty three miles."

I told them not to be afraid, if whatever it was wanted to harm us it would have, and all I accomplished was to further frighten the children.

I got back to my car and headed back north on I-5 to a motel in Stockton. As I was trying to sleep I felt as though I had been one with that light. I'll never be sure how long I was with the light, I know I lost attention with the road for at least thirty miles at 80mph.

In the years since I see the combine and truck as toy's and feel as though I was encapsulated by the light.

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

Black huge triangle craft with chevron shape of lights on her belly with a larger red light in the center of the chevron shape travelin

At the time of the sighting , I was a 34 year old father of a 3 year old daughter. Married for 8+ years with a stable happy life. Ironically, we had just moved back to the Stockton address (my home growing up)nearly three years previous in December 1984 from Roswell, N.M.. We moved to Roswell by chance. Placed an application at the local sign company while I helped a couple good friends move to Roswell. Not Once did any of my super good partners who were born and raised in Roswell mention/utter a word about the Roswell Incident 40 years earlier. Anyway--- at that time and probably ever sense I was in my late teens I've always had the attitude that "anything is possible".

I can only say for sure that the date an year can only be 1987 or 1988 in early to mid November. Why I remember that it was in November, we were having an "Indian Summer" that year. I was watering the edges of my front lawn by hand when for no reason I looked up into the sky above me and all I could see is a black. No stars, no blue-black color that one see's normally as the color of night sky unless you live away from city lights etc.The whole entire sky was filled with this huge black opaque object as far as I could see in all directions. Then through the branches of the tree that I was standing under,set of lights appeared in a chevron shape with a larger reddish orange with a glimpse of yellow lite was in the center of this chevron shape of different colored lights. It was so huge and looked as though it was traveling no more than 30-40 miles per hour. I remember thinking to myself as to what's keeeping this ship from just falling out of the sky. Going way to slow to not fall out of the sky. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I could see the real actual night sky with all the stars in the drk-blue black setting. As it continued passing over, I could see the enormity of this thing as it traveled in a north west direction towards the city of Antioch, Fairfield, Vacaville, Santa Rosa and eventually to the Pacific coast. As it was leaving my area, I was estimating the altitude with the telephone poles in the area. This "Mothership or whatever took up at least a 3-4 block sq. area and maybe more at an altitude no more than 300 - 400 ft in the air and was so quiet (not a peep)it was noisy. I don't know what made me look up.

My address at that time was very close to where the Calaveras river dumps into the deep water channel.

round bright craft seen after sunday evening church services

it was in the evening, about 7:30 or 8:00. i was with my mom, an old couple, and had a friend riding with us. it was on a sunday evening. we had just gotten out of church services when we all noticed a bright round craft flew in from the north and lowered it's altitude. it then hovered for two minutes. it then left and raised altitude. we spent time talking about it, my friend and i. the following wednsday, we told the church chior leader about it. he believed us but suggested it might be a helicopter, but my mom stated the altitude was to high for a helicopter. this the truth as far as i can remeber over the last twenty-one years.

((FOLLOW-UP REPORT FROM SAME WITNESS))

Craft seen in the eveing after Sunday evening church services.

I reported this before. There was some things I wanted to add to my report. My mom, a friend, an elderly couple we were riding with, and myself saw this craft. It came in from the north, lowered it's altitude which had probably been 100,000 ft. to 80,000ft. It hovered for two minutes, then raised back to 100,000 ft., and then flew south and just disappeared. We had just gotten out of Sunday evening church services and had seen this object talking as I stated before. My friend and I talked about it afterward, saying it back to outer space. I was only a kid at the time, eleven years old to be exact, while I believed in life on other planets and in Bigfoot, I did not believe in u.f.o.s until I saw this craft. It was saucer shaped, and was just a bright round object, white in color. We told the church choir director about it the follownig Wednsday, who asked if it was a helicopter, but my mom pointed out it was too high altitude for a helicoptor. I had wanted to tell all this before to this agency but was pressed for time the last time I did this. This is not a cheap gag, nor a tall tale. This is the truth as well as I can remember over the last twenty-one years. The adults were straight laced.

change from a rectangle to a old screaming 707 airliner balactica

June 22, 2012 In the summer of august 1981, my wife and son were traveling in the area of Stockton airport Stockton California. When we saw a bright light to the east above the horizon about 15 deg the size of the light was twice that of a landing light of a common commercial airliner. It was about 70 miles away from us. I worked for a major airline at the time. So I know what a large transporter would look like. So I deceited to park at the end of the run way and watch a touch and go of aircraft because pilots from major airlines use Stockton airport to training. Anyhow as the craft approached the control area I figured that the aircraft would do a regular base and final approach, and touch and go but what happen was this. The craft was at the same height as the control tower and it looked like the ship was going to crash into the control tower and went on the other side of the tower and across the small aircraft hangars still heading west. As its approached us about 5 cars were a! t the end of the runway and we all got out of our cars and I saw the rectangle black metallic, with lights flashing all around it ufo approach us all going across the highway airport boulevard at 25 feet off the ground moving at a speed of 3 miles per hour. Very very slow its length of a football field, height 40 feet, width 75 feet. As it slowly move in front of all of us there was port holes of 3 where you can see being inside that resembled tall thin looking figures looking at us. I had a strong flash light and I shined the light into the port hole and gave a delta sign with my light. As the ship was in front of us a old type of Buick 1951 sedan black car approached the ship with a person inside it drivers side with looked like a man in black and he didn’t even see the ship. He was gone after that. We watch the ship make a long round approach into the delta for about 10 minutes. After that I went to the control tower and reported a ufo as I was doing this other peo! ple were calling up the tower and reporting the same thing. I! asked t he tower if any aircrafts had come into this area in the last 10-15 minutes and they said no aircraft came through at all. It is impossible for the tower not to see the large spot light 70 miles away and than the tower high craft passing behind the tower. After that we left the area a headed south on hwy 99 towards modest California and there we saw the bright light again. It had made a large circle around the the Stockton , Manteca, lathrope. I saw it coming very fast and low maybe 30 feet . I went under the over pass of Manteca 99 hwy and saw the ship change shape from a rectangle to a old 707 aircraft and screaming very low and very old looking battle ship. We were shocked in its new appearance. After that I went home and call blue book and reported it. Many years later mufon people wanted to hear our story and put my wife and I under hipnotics because my wife said she saw the ship at Stockton airport went on top of her and I saw it to the side. That the story.

I saw a saucer shaped craft that defied aerodynamiccs as we know it.

My wife,daughter,niece and myself were at the twin drive in theaters in Stockton,Ca.in 1977 to see the remake of the movie "King Kong".I had seen the original made in the 30's and was looking forward to seeing this one with all its special effects.The screen we would see the movie on was facing west.Dusk approached and the theater started its advertising.Get your fresh popcorn,drinks,etc..At that time I was working at the Stockton Airport,employed by San Joaquin County.As a kid I had always loved airplanes and it was a treat to work at a place where you could talk to pilots and people interested in aviation.Some people never look up at the sky but for some reason if I'm outdoors I'm always scanning.I saw a craft coming from the west heading southeast.At first I thought it was just a small airplane.I noticed some lights but they were not compatible with any aircraft I had seen.My interest turned from the movie I really wanted to see to something in the sky.At some point I mentioned it to my wife,daughter,and niece.They were somewhat absorbed in the movie which is logical.We didn't come there to watch the night sky.I became totally involved watching this craft which skirted the drive in and seemed to be heading over downtown Stockton,Ca.I remember saying "I bet the guys in the tower (Airport) are looking at this thing".They didn't have radar back then but it wasn't a busy airport.They had lots of time to observe visually and check out things with binoculars.I kept watching from my car while the movie proceeded.This craft after awhile seemed to be coming back our way.I got out of the car when I realized it was coming directly over us.I was scared because at some point during this event I knew what I was seeing was something I had not seen before.A totally silent craft,extremely slow moving,with confusing lights.I watched it come directly over us,maybe 200 feet or less.This was not some streak of light or a blur you might have problems seeing.It passed right over our heads.A saucer shaped craft.Maybe 50 feet in diameter.It seemed to consist of two sections or if not rotating lights that flashed at it revolved gave that impression.They were bright white that went alternately off and on as the craft revolved.I just stood there in awe as it passed silently overhead.My wife and the kids witnessed it also...I thought the next day the local paper would have some unusual headlines.Not a word.Not a word from any news source.No one at the airport tower mentioned it.No on at the drive in got out of their car as I did...What did we see? A US top secret aircraft flying over downtown Stockton.This was not the Nevada desert.Whoever controlled this craft cared not who saw it...Which brings up the most perplexing question to me.Did anyone else see it at all? And how could they not?..I am 60 yearw old now.I have a family and grandkids.I am retired from the Army National Guard.My word is my bond.I would neve lie about anything like this nor would my family.I have no reason to.I have told this stories to numerous friends.My real fiends believe me.Others scoff and roll their eyes.My nature is not to jump on any bandwagon.I am very skeptical about any eye witness report.Ten people can describe an object ten different ways.Nuts and kooks abound.I saw what I saw.My family saw it.It proves nothing.That is my story.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 61253
Occurred: 1973-07-05 20:00 Local
Reported: 2008-01-28 01:56 Pacific
Duration: 3hrs
No of observers: 2

Location: Stockton (intersection of I-5 and I-580), CA, USA

Shape: Changing
Characteristics: Lights on object, Emitted beams

Witnessed numerous UFO's along I-5 from Stockton south to Tehachipi on busy holiday weekend.

This event took place in 1973. I was 21 years old and traveled from San Diego County to Portland Ore with my brother and his wife on 4th of July weekend.

My brother was in army aviation at the time and I was a student pilot. Another brother was an air controller for the SAC, a close cousin an army pilot and his brother an Air Force kicker. We grew up adjacent to air bases: Kirkland, Biggs, Mira Mar and Camp Pendleton. We are very familiar with aircraft and their abilities.

On the return trip from Portland we were at the cloverleaf of I-5 and I-580 in the Stockton California area at dusk. (perhaps 8PM). The freeways were very busy. My brother and I saw a craft coming from our 10 o'clock position very low. Our first assumption was that it was a crop duster as they are common in that vicinity and they prefer to work right up to sunset. The craft had three lights, red, green and amber, not unlike any aircraft except that they were in the wrong positions and the anti-collision lamp did not blink.

The craft came in right over our windshield at about 60 -100 ft AGL! We looked directly up at it but only saw a blur. It appeared to be transparent. It past over us to our 2 o'clock position and only about 300 ft lateral and 100 ft altitude. I got a good look at it. It was tubular with a simple frame for a fuselage. The craft was transparent as if made from see through covering. It had short stubs protruding from its sides that were not sufficient to be wings or airfoils. It had no engines.

It immediately, without turning, returned in our direction while descending. An impossible maneuver for any aircraft that I know of. It's speed was slow, perhaps 45mph. The stubs turned out to have bright lamps attached and they were activated nearly blinding us. The craft flew down to the deck illuminating the field of wheat (or rice) and pushing it aside as it moved a few feet above it. I again got a close look and the craft was not a duster or helicopter. I have never known dusters to use lights as dusting is too dangerous at night.

We looked at other motorists at they seemed not to notice. We followed the progress of the crafts as it continued to crisscrossed I-5 in a similar fashion as we moved south at about 80 mph. Complete darkness fell swiftly. We then saw many craft with two lights performing the same maneuvers amongst the fields. They were acting as if they were looking for something on the ground by "strafing" it with their lights which were too close together to be mistaken as autos in the distance. We also noticed that at times they would stop and hover over the California Aqueduct and shine their beams downward. We stopped several times to witness the events. Though many times the hovering objects were close they made no sound.

Again other motorists seemed to notice nothing. There were usually three in sight at all times. We tried to rationalize that it was helicopters, agricultural machinery or autos in the distance. However, in the following years i made that same trip many times at night and never saw anything like it again. Our only rational thought was that it was police looking for someone. We listened to the radio in ernest hoping for a news announcement. Of course there was none.

The object(s) began following us at fence top level along the opposite side of the freeway, about 100 yards behind. We tested them several times by speeding up to 140 mph and then slowing to about 20mph. The craft(s) kept pace with us! When they seemed to be bored with this game they would fly off laterally at high speed but still stay within sight. Often they would be replaced by another in their former position.

After the initial first sighting near Stockton, my sister-in-law fell asleep in the back seat. We attempted several times over the next few hours to awake her to witness the show but were unable to. She was clearly alive but slapping and shaking could not wake her.

We were totally confused and decided to stop in at a truck stop a few miles off the freeway near the bottom of the Grapevine. We had witnessed this phenomenon for about three hours at this point. We made casual inquiries in the restaurant of the staff and truckers but no one saw anything. My sister-in-law remained unconscious. We continued on our trip south and had no more sightings.

Upon awaking the next day my brother and I went over what had transpired. We discovered that we were missing somewhere between 90 and 180 minutes of time. We checked our gas receipts which were dated and time stamped and new our speed averaged 80 mph except for the few times we stopped which we accounted for. We had no sensation that we were abducted then or since and suffered no ill effects.

Many years later I read a book by a UFO investigator that stated that 1973 was a big "flap" year in California and the Central Valley in general.
