Shape: Other


A UFO appeared at high altitude moving slowly or possibly not at all. Shape is like no other that I have seen in sky.

I was walking my dog and noticed a strange object in the sky. I wondered if it might be a weather balloon or test military craft as I live near Travis Air force Base, but I’ve never seen anything like it before nor have I seen anything like it after. When I zoom in, it almost looks like a “Z” shape, but not quite. It was not fast moving, on the contrary, it seemed like it was barely moving at all. I did not stay to observe it because it appeared to be far away and I did not have the tools to provide a clearer view of the actual object.

Meteors don't slow down and make 90 degree turns

I was in my backyard stargazing as I had heard the Perseid meteor shower was still going to be visible until the end of the month. I actually viewed several a night over the past several nights leading up to Aug 18th and I'm 51y/o so I have seen my fair share of "shooting stars" in my life.

My eyes were acclimated to the dark sky as I had been outside looking up for about 40 minutes prior so more and more stars were coming into focus and in my field of view. I then saw what I thought was a shooting star but it took a 90 degree turn went a distance while slowing and then made another 90 degree turn before it accelerated and faded out. I literaly didn't believe what I had seen. It was at a very high altitude. Looked like a star in the sky making turns. So weird. I'm one city away from Travis AFB in northern California so I've seen plenty of military aircraft before and this wasn't one of "Ours". It moved at a ridiculously fast but smooth speed and then changed direction on a dime and appeared to slow down but then sped up and changed direction at 90 degrees again. The entire event lasted maybe 2 or 3 seconds. I will never forget it. It's been bothering me for nearly a week now. What the hell was it? Drones can't operate that high right? And at supersonic speed?

While driving my son noticed a black cigar shaped object above/over over the moon - i pulled over and we watched it move slowly from top of moon to left side - it was very difficult to see but the moon reflection highlighted it enough to make out a cigar shaped object - we both took pictures with our cell phones but the object did not appear as black but instead came out as a bright object off to the left side of moon - it just disappeared after approximately two minutes of viewing - was an amazing sight to see. Pictures sent to website below from my phone.

Shape: Formation
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object

I saw 5-7 orange/red lights in a V shaped formation fly directly over my head with no sound emitting from the UFO.

I was taking the trash out and looked up at the clear night sky when suddenly my eyes were immediately drawn to these 5-7 orange/red lights in the sky. These lights were all the same size and were in a perfect V-shaped formation heading west to east just over Vacaville, CA. These lights flew straight over my head and were moving extremely fast. I first thought that perhaps the orange street lights were playing with my eyes with a glare or something, so I ran into the middle of the street to see if anything would change but nothing changed whatsoever. These objects were roughly 3000-5000ft in the sky . I suspected that this could be some type of military aircraft but the thing that made it clear that these were not military was how silent these crafts were. No sound whatsoever, just lights. This is my first UFO sighting and it matches how everyone else describes these crafts.

75-100 Light formation over Vacaville, California

Dec04, 2020, 1813hrs. Vacaville, CA.

While walking my dog, I looked up to see 75-100 lights moving from West to East across the sky, parallel to HWY 80 in California. Approx 5-10 miles North of it.

The lights, from my angle, were the same size and brightness as Saturn is right now. They were traveling at slow speed. They were in-line formation. For the most part, they were almost the all the same distance from one another, in line, for the exception of 4-5 which were above or below the line.

They traveled at a speed similar to a small-engine plane.

By the time they flew over (approximately) central Vacaville they disappeared one by one, once they arrived to the exact same location in the sky.

The Travis Air-Force Base is close-by, and so is the Nut Tree Private Airport. We are used to many different aircraft here, and have NEVER seen this phenomenon. No other aircraft was seen in the sky at this time. This was witnessed by myself(walking my dog) as well as my family(from my house around the corner)

Lights very high in the atmosphere passed over 1 at a time spaced evenly and in a straight line. They were moving east. As they passed overhead, they disappeared. As I was watching 3 dimly lit orbs raced by traveling south. One was traveling in a straight line while the other 2 danced around on each side. Another light (very high in the atmosphere slowly moved overhead and stopped and hovered for at least 5 minutes. Very weird. They were definitely too high to be military aircraft and way too many to be satellites.

After freak hailstorm event I took pictures of the sun, clouds, & sky at 15:13 and the object or objects were in those pics.

On the seventeenth of February, at approximately 14:43, I was working on my taxes on the computer and I heard what I thought at first was rain but it got to be very loud, so I opened the front door to look outside and it was hailing pretty hard. It continued to hail until approximately 15:00. I decided to take my dog out, was curious what he would think of the remaining hail on the ground, and nothing else seemed out of the ordinary at the time.

Once my dog and I came back in I took a peak out the back-sliding glass door and the clouds with the sun looked really gorgeous. So, I decided to take some pictures at 15:13 exactly. I took 6 pictures facing West from my back yard before reviewing them with my LG V40 phone. I saw this little black triangle and zoomed in the best I could and I started seeing it most the pictures. At the time I could not see it as clearly on my phone, but it might be almost cone shaped, or rounded. I thought maybe I would catch something else if I took more photos and videos afterwards at 15:15 and later but nothing else showed up. I was curious to see if anyone else reported anything strange in the area or possibly was able to get a video or more evidence of what it was or could be. I marked that there may have been 2 objects. There is a green orb that definitely looked out of place, but I didn’t really notice it as much on my phone, more so on my computer monitor. It definitely shows up in 3 of the pictures. I know it is a phone camera but my phone actually has 3 different lenses in the back and one is a telescopic lens so the pictures are pretty decent. I hope this helps with evidence. I did not see the objects directly, only in the pictures and they or it seemed to maybe be towards Pena Adobe Park.

On July 24th evening, last night, I was sitting outside in my hot tub in my backyard. I was gazing up at the night sky. We have a lot of trees in our yard but the sky was open in the area I was looking. I saw a bright yellow light moving across the sky.

At first I thought it was a shooting star but it was moving too slow, almost the speed of an airplane. There were no lights like an airplane, just a tear drop shaped object. The tear drop was horizontal and very bright yellow, and then after about 3 seconds it just disappeared or blinked out.

I don't know what it was but it wasn't an airplane. It may have been a shooting star but it was way bigger and slower than any shooting star I have ever seen.

Also it didn't have a trail.

I live in Vacaville California, and was looking in the Northeast sky.

What ever it was that flew by me I for sure have never seen before.

It was 6:05 pm when I was walking from my next door neighbor's house towards my house when I looked up and saw a round or egg shape ball of light coming very fast up in the sky. It must have been going 1500-2500 knots. I stopped to watch it as it flew like a missile or a rocket ball that had tracer light streaming behind it. It flew at an angle up and over the direction of Travis Air Force Base. My neighbor and I both watched it slow down to a stop and appeared to be angled down as we could see light coming out of it. We both agreed that it was egg or round in shape. There was no sound at all and it seemed to be about the same size as a four door car. We both kept walking following behind it as not to loose it. It flew a distance I see plains fly all the time accept plains take about 5-10 minutes do fly the same distance. I could not believe what I was seeing. I went in my house to document what I had just seen and I found my digital recorder and tried to go! back over everything that we witnessed. When I went back outside from the original event it was 6:25 pm it is now 7:30 pm as I am writing this report and I just herd sirens like police with a weird humming and now I am hearing a loud airplane engine as I look there is what looks like a boing 777 flying in a big circle around my house and area where the said event took place.

Orangish color sphere shape flying over Vacaville, CA.

I saw something in the sky tonight over Vacaville traveling from a North to Southerly direction not quite going towards the base. It was a roundish not overly bright orange color. I see planes all the time and even with their exterior lights on this was not something I have seen before. It was not particularly face but it was steady and seems to hover a couple of times before moving on again. I did not hear anything that sounded like a plan or helicopter. It was fairly low because I lost it behind houses and neighbors trees. It was not directly above me maybe half mile away at closets point. This was a 3:43 AM I know because I looked at the clock before stepping outside.

Bright light, very bright light.

We saw a unusually bright light moving from West to East. It was moving at a satellite speed. What caught our attention was how bright it was and large. Satellites are small and not so bright. This was bright. And the brightness did not change with the distance it traveled. No blinking lights so I can safely say it was not an airplane. Weird!

I saw 5 red lights hoovering/moving slowly in the sky that I'm convinced were not normal air crafts.

I was driving through a residential neighborhood and turned to my right to see 5 strange red circular lights hoovering about 0.5-1 mile away. They were too far apart to make up one gigantic object, so I would say they were 5 individual crafts either moving slowly or hoovering in one spot. They seemed to be observing and had no sudden movements. They made a noise that wasn't quite like an aircraft, but a strange hum as I opened the window. I also saw another car with two people stopped and look at the objects. As I began driving and got onto another street, I saw another car parked observing the objects. The red circular lights went from five, to three, to one, then vanished completely 2 minutes after I encountered them.

We saw three perfectly spaced lights hovering diagonally in a stationary position. Opposite of the unindentified flying objects, were four military planes (fighter jets) flying in formation, one after another at a high rate of speed. The planes were monitoring the objects from a distance. Aircraft altitude unknown, although flying low approximately 2000 feet agl. UFO's were disc shaped and had bright lights similar to Xenon headlights found on cars. Towards the end of the sighting, the military planes flew over Nut Tree Airport and as soon as they curved around to ascend, the UFO's vanished quickly within a blink of an eye.

no sound from greenish/white light shooting very close above tree line over neighbors house in vacaville ca.

I was in the back yard looking up ; the moon was to my left, when a light caught my eye above the tree under the moon in my neighbors yard. It was so quick I did not have much time to focus, there was no sound at all. There was a greenish/ white light at the beginning of it; and it kinda had a tail ,like a commit. It went in a straight line above the tree's rather close. All this leads me to believe it was not any aircraft, commit or meteor but I do not think anyone else saw this anomaly.

13 silent orange lights observed for 19 minutes crossing the sky from west to east on an upward trajectory

Date of sighting: 7/21/12 Time of sighting: 9:14 PM to 9:33 PM Location: Solano County, CA.

Number of individuals present at the time of the sighting were 3 adults.

Lat: 38.38 Lon: -121.96

Temperature: 87 degrees F (31 degrees C)
Humidity: 21%

Barometer: 29.83 in (1009.9mb)
Dewpoint: 42 degrees F (6 degrees C)
Visibility: 10.00 miles
Heat Index: 84 degrees F (29 degrees C) Sky conditions from observer’s point of view: Clear with stars visible Ground lighting: Street lights present Report: A total of 13 orange lights rose in the sky from due west and followed a straight-line course, passing overhead, towards the eastern sky. As viewed by the observer looking straight up (0 degrees) relative to the eastern horizon (90 degrees) each light appeared to fade/get smaller at about 20 degrees, and then was no longer visible. Each appeared to be climbing.

The first two lights appeared individually, one after another.

This was followed by a formation of 4 lights and the formation changed.

A second formation of 4 lights followed the first.

After the formations disappeared 3 more lights in succession appeared and disappeared.

Except for the reformation described above all lights behaved the same and disappeared when they reached the same part of the sky.

None of us could say how fast they were traveling but it appeared to be about 2 minutes for an individual light to rise from the west and disappear (we did not think to time them).

All lights were the same color (an orange color very similar to sodium vapor street lights).

All agreed that the lights appeared to flicker (like a candle flame) as they journeyed across the sky.

None of us were able to identify any sounds that we could associate with these lights.

Travis AFB is 9 miles from our location and there are usually flights in the air. None were observed during the period we are reporting.

Nut Tree Airport is 5 miles from our location. One small aircraft was observed in the air during this incident.

Big orange lights in SSE sky seen towards the air force base, at least 6, definately not airplanes.

The formation was like a triangle with a tail. There was about 6 + objects. I noticed them as I saws Mars to the SW, then I saw a way brighter round light orb that was orange like Mars in the SSE sky, its light faded then came back and then several more appeared. Also, about an hour later I saw a faint white 'shooting star' right where the later event happened in the SSE sky. It looked like it shot up (or down) from the air force base.

I also saw a red shooting star right after it, more towards the East though. Met 3 other witnesses, me and one witness shared a similar even that happened to both of us, we both dropped an electronic device in our pools earlier that day. I noticed more people out driving right when the lights were flying around, compared to an hour before. Could have just been a busier street. Very exciting!

I was spending the night stargazing through my telescope, after the partial eclipse of the sun earlier that day. The sky had some scattered clouds on an off through out the night. Just before day break I was looking south about 70 degrees off the horizon I noticed what I thought to be Venus at about 4:19 am, but i realized that Venus had went down earlier in the evening ,about 10:00 pm, just when I tried to adjust my telescope it started moving north, and dropping in altitude. It moved without sound it appeared to be a cylinder of light standing vertically. It moved north slowly as it got closer about 45 seconds. I live by a small county airport my house is under the landing pattern. This LIGHT was flying the wrong direction within the landing pattern. It then changed direction and headed east at a much greater speed. I watched it til it was gone with binoculars.

Travis Air Force Base vicinity Orange Orbs

On Jan 08 2012 my husband called me outside as he took the garbage out, at the side of our home; I looked up into the sky over Travis Air Force Base and witnessed 3 orange colored orbs stationary in the sky. They were in a triangular formation and appeared to be individual orbs. My husband expressed that there had been 6 in the sky one minute ago, and ran back into the house to get his phone to try to take a picture. I felt dizzy and grabbed the wall to steady myself. When I looked back up to the orbs, one had gone.

Now the two that were left were still in the same position as when I first saw them, then the one that was lower in the sky began to pulse, and I was afraid that it would go away before my husband could get a picture. He waited for his phone to load and the lower orb flashed and in my opinion, shot out of site toward the South East. The final orb that was a little higher and to the right of the one that just “left” was now beginning to pulse. It moved down 2 inches in my view, and then shot off as well, toward the South East.

We stood there in awe for a min, repeating, ”What was that?”, “What were those?” I mentioned that maybe they were comets burning through the atmosphere, or perhaps something new that TAFB is testing in weaponry, but have NOT seen any news of this. We searched the local newspaper and NASA’s web site to see if there were any comets that night, but found nothing. We viewed some you tube videos labeled “Orange orbs” and some other people have captured this same phenomena in many other areas of our country and even in other countries.

I read one opinion that they may be a plasma weapon of defense that is used to “melt” something from the sky. This may be a laser that creates a photon ball of lightening in the sky and then can be maneuvered using micro-waves, a lot like the drones that are manipulated and used in the middle-east right now. This makes sense to me, but have not been able to find anything official. The persons opinion of this was linked to a web site…sciencenews.com I'm an educated at home mother of three (and a student) with a career history in Human Resources, Accounting and Education. My husband is a Navy Veteran, who is a hard working man and student. We are rational, open minded, California natives. I believe there is an explaination for this event, and have felt compelled to find out these orange orbs source of being. Any help would be appreciated.

Moving star like object, fading in and out, and moving different directions.

For the last few months, me and my father have been watching the night sky over Vacaville, CA, looking for the "orange lights/Fireballs" that have been largely reported over the last year or so. I've still never witnessed them myself (my father did while on business in Charleston, SC, last month), but I did see something interesting this night. On June 21st I began looking up at the sky at roughly 10 pm.

A few minutes before 11 PM, (I know it was slightly before 11 because of the TV program on in My garage) as I was looking towards the East above my house, I noticed what appeared to be a quite bright star or satellite, moving from South to North, at a slightly faster speed than the satellites I see often.

Naturally, I assumed this was a satellite because it appeared to be so far away and had just one solid light (Looked just like a star), but I just kept watching it anyways, as I wasn't even seeing airplanes this night (Which is pretty odd because I live minutes from the Vacaville private Airport, and only 12 miles from Travis AFB.)

After about 20 seconds, the light began to slowly fade and was about to be blocked from my view by trees in my front yard. So I moved to the side of my house (which faces South) and continued to watch it move North until it completely faded away. It took roughly 15 seconds for it to go from fading to completely invisible.

I didn’t think much of it at first because I know satellites and debris can reflect the sun and create this "fading light" effect, but after about 10 seconds the light reappeared almost in the exact same spot it became invisible, this time moving in the complete opposite direction (North to South). It moved completely the same, in a straight line and at the same slightly faster than a satellite speed. The fade-in to visibility was much quicker than the fade-out, maybe 5 seconds till it appeared as bright as it was the first time.

I moved to the center of my driveway at this time, still facing East looking over my house. Then it faded away completely again, only being visible this time for roughly 20 seconds, including the fade time, which was much quicker than the first time (it took only about 6-8 seconds).

I kept looking in the same area where it disappeared this time (which was directly above my house, about half the distance from where it originated), still facing East, when it reappeared yet a third Time, this time moving either up or West/slightly north (It was hard to tell because of how high it was in My view). It continued moving the same as previously, and was visible for about the same amount of Time as the second time before fading away completely. This all happened under 2 minutes. I figured it would continue to do this (or hoped I should say), so I ran into my house from the drive way through the Garage to get my Father.

We ran out into the center of the driveway and looked East at the area where I had just seen it 2 minutes earlier, but did not see anything. Then about 12 minutes later, my dad spotted it directly above our heads, moving from East to West in the same manner as before, short fade in to a longer fade out. It was longer visible after about 20 seconds. I looked at my phone for time, and it was 11:14 PM. We continued to search for about an hour, then we gave up.

The whole thing has really got me interested in finding out what me and my father saw. If there is a good explanation, I would really like to hear it, or if anyone else saw this or has seen this in the Solano County Area, I would also really like to know.

Could not have been the ISS; it was not visible at the time indicated above, and on the date indicate. PD

Bright firey red orange crescent shaped object hwy 505 north Vacaville Calif 6/4/11 10:30pm

I was driving on Hwy 505 North between Vacaville and Winters Calf. around 10:30pm on Saturday 6/4/11

The sky was really dark and I glanced out my drivers side window and saw what I thought was an eclipse of the moon. It was bright firey red orange and shaped like a half moon or crescent shape. It would get really bright and then sort of fade. When it faded you could see red lights.

Then the crescent shape would appear again bright red orange. It looked like it had dropped down lower in the sky.

There were cars driving slow in the fast lane watching this object.

I've never seen anything like this before, and wish I had taken a video camera with me.

I would be interested to know if anyone else has seen this or something similar.




NUFORC Note:

We have written the witness, to inquire whether the object might have been the waxing, crescent Moon in the western sky. PD

As I came out of work on the 5th of April at about 8:40pm I looked up in the sky and saw a bright blue light in the sky it was not moving at all and I heard no noise. I stood near my truck looking at it and snapped a cell phone pic of it. It almost looked like a big ball of blue fire. I know that sounds strange but that’s what it looked like

my friend and I were delivering news papers to an apartment complex around four thirty am and I looked up and saw a bright flying through the sky object that appeared to also have a trailing fire like tail. The object was travaling about 500 miles per hour. I told my friend to stop the car and look and she saw it to. We got out of the car to get a better look and it fized out as it flew through the casiopa constellation. A bright light just then seemed to cetch my eyes about 75 to 100 feet over our heads as it flew silently fast just above our heads. I was frightened enough to run and jump back in to the car.

I found it odd my dog didnt make a sound as the dog always always alerts to anything outside. I got up after it was gone and looked around outside at which the dog came running up to me but there was no evidence of anything outside I know im not insane I was afraid to tell anyone at work I know what i heard I know it was not any type of plane or copter I grew up on base next to the runway and been air force all my life. This was definatley not normal and I do not watch sci Fi movies as my coworkers suggested and i was not dreaming I was petrified listening. NEXT time I will get up and take a picture for sure.

Shape: Changing
Characteristics: Left a trail

Bright white kite shaped light morphs into sickle shape as it turns before flattening out over Vacaville Hills on Aug. 19, 7:45pm.

Vacaville, California, Sunday, August 19, 2007, 19:45, my son and I were driving in heavy traffic westbound on I80 between Nut Tree Road and Alamo Drive. We both noticed an object slowly rising over a ridge of foothills between Vacaville and Fairfield, CA. The object was a bright white-yellowish light and its shape changed as it changed direction. As the traffic was heavy it took us about 90 seconds to travel the distance between the two roads.

Initially it had a diamond like polygon shape and I thought it was a cloud. My son said it was moving too quickly to be a cloud, but not quickly enough to be a plane. It was an extremely bright light. As it rose vertically, the leading edge lost its rectangular shape and became rounded. It was trailing a bright jet trail. Then it turned to the south (left) and became sickle-shaped, still trailing a jet trail. As it completed the turn, it flattened and narrowed and became straight in shape, still trailing a jet trail. At that point it picked up speed, and was on a slightly angled upward path. By this time I was at Alamo Drive and we lost view of it.

My son is 12 and fascinated with airplanes. His grandfather was a pilot who flew for the military and World Airways. My son just had his eyes tested at 20/20. I am 51 years old and a volunteer at the Vacaville Police Department. Neither of us has ever reported a UFO before and we don’t know anyone who has ever claimed to see one.

(DAUGHTER)Tonight May 26, 2007 on Orange Drive in Vacaville at approximately 9:40 pm, my mother and I spotted a UFO. The object was saucer – like in appearance and had lights along the edge blinking one after the other. In relation to a normal sized star the UFO was about ten times the size; the size of a dime if held furthest from your face, only looking at the side view. The UFO traveled at about the speed of an airplane, maybe a little slower and lower to the ground than an aircraft would travel. The distance was about a foot in the sky, in relation to the dime. After I would say a minute the UFO disappeared.

(MOTHER)At approximately 9:40pm on May 26th, 2007 I was driving West on Orange drive in Vacaville California, when I saw something moving up in the sky. It was saucer shaped/cylinder and it had rotating blinking lights. My daughter was in the passenger side of my car and I noticed after a few seconds, she was watching the same thing as me. It was moving West, probably Northwest. It was the size of quarter, If I was holding a quarter arm length from my face, that would be the approx size. The quarter being sideways in position. My guess would be it was not flying as high as an airplane, but closer to where an airplane would be if getting ready to head in towards a runway to land. I continued to drive west on Orange Drive, and my daughter was trying to use her cell phone to video tape this object. I pulled into the parking lot of Staples and stopped the car so she could aim her cell phone, about this time the object appeared to vanished from where it was traveling, It sort of looked like it in hyper speed turned North , I remember seeing it off in the distance , but I can not be 100 percent sure that is where it went. All this happened in approximately one minute.

saucer octagon shape lights on corners and a blue light on the bottom

I had picked up my grandchildren, twins a boy and girl 8 years old, in Patterson, Calif. which I do every other weekend.

We were on highway 113 out of Vacaville when I saw lights off to the right. We are close to Travis Air Force Base and we always have planes around the area so I didn't think too much about the lights I was seeing. There was what looked light a plane off to our right coming toward us but seemed very low. I said to the twins, look at that plane.

When it started to pass over us we looked for the wings and the normal shape of a plane. It flew over us, that was when we saw that there where no wings, it was round but a octagon shape with lights on each corner and as it passed over us it had a blue light in the middle of the craft. It made no sound.

My granddaughter said was that a ufo? We watched it keep going lower and it looked like it was going to land in a grove of trees. I was driving but my grandson said that it looked like it just took off out of the trees. The twins where very scared and did not want to talk about it untill we got to their Dads home. We then compared what we had seen and we all saw the same shape and lights. I have never seen anything like this before, the reason I am writing this is to see if anyone else on the road that night saw anything like we saw.

Duration: 5 minutes

Location: Vacaville, CA, USA

Shape: Disk
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

Disk shaped object hovered briefly then travelled eastward, captured video footage of it as it left.

Went out to the backyard to check on the pool. (Sometimes, the Polaris sweeper gets stuck or tangled, which requires regular babysitting when it is in operation.) While doing so, I heard a plane flying nearby. I like airplanes so I try to catch a glimpse of them when I hear them. I could tell it was close by the sound but couldn't see it anywhere.

A few seconds later, I saw it pop up from behind some trees that were blocking my view to the northwest. It was a small single-propeller airplane, probably a Cessna. As I watched it for a second or so, I noticed a dark object roughly in the same line of sight as the plane but approximately twice as far and about twice the altitude.

At first, the object seemed to be changing shapes and I thought it was a bird or perhaps a garbage bag that the wind had gotten hold of. As I kept watching, I noticed that the object was stationary. By then I was fixated and I realized that the object was not changing shapes but rather was changing its orientation, which made it appear to change shapes.

The way the object's profile was changing was consistent with a disk shape that seemed to be wobbling, much like the way a spinning coin wobbles just before it rests on the table... only much slower. While I watched, I saw it start to move slowly and steadily towards the east. When I first saw it, it was directly north of me in my backyard.

There was a layer of scattered clouds at the time and they made for a good background to provide contrast for the object. Once, the sun peaked out for a few seconds and I caught a glimpse of a shine that made the object appear metallic.

As the object moved away, I mustered up the will to peel my eyes from it and ran into the house to get the new camcorder I bought a little over a month ago. My wife was napping at the time so I didn't have to explain my odd behavior.

By the time I returned to the backyard, the object had gotten very far. To further exacerbate the situation, I'm not very proficient with the video camera and had to use "Easycam" mode and hope for the best while I tried to control my excitement. I captured approximately two minutes of footage showing the object moving away from me in an eastward direction.

I zoomed in on the object a couple of times to highlight it but most of the footage is unzoomed to keep surrounding trees and structures within the frame for reference. The camera that was used is a Sony DCR-DVD403. I have sent a copy of the DVD that it produced to your address in Seattle. The third clip on the disk has the most useful footage.

As for me, I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering (B.A.Sc.) from the University of Ottawa. For the past twelve years, I have been cultivating a successful career in the field of IT. I am currently employed by a major IT outsourcing company as an Infrastructure Specialist. Due to the attention that this may draw, I would prefer to remain anonymous, or at least have my personal information withheld.

I am a special education teacher with over 30 years of experience. I have never seen a UFO, though have friends and family who have. This event was at 11:45 p.m. Saturday night, May 13th. I was standing outside enjoying the stillness and "the night" when I saw a very bright "aircraft" passing from West to East (over the house) It was far too bright to be an airplane and the bright orange "glow" was certainly not typical of any aircraft I have seen in the past. This beautiful "thing" was symetrical, large round center with small round shapes surrounding it. It must have been quite high because it looked like it was traveling at a slow speed and there was no sound. As it went over the house, I ran through to the front door, snagging my husband at the same time as we both watched it quickly disappear into the eastern sky.

Characteristics: Left a trail

The object was considerably larger then a C-5, and was irregular in shape. As it was clear the object did have a surface mass he described it as a triangle or perhaps a 'flying wing. he noticed a trail, or something, coming off of this object he referred to as 'stardust', as the tail of a comet may look. At first he thought it must be coming off the exhaust, which he realized was extremely odd. In trying to gain a better view he almost drove off the road so he stopped and rolled down his passenger window and looked out. This is the secondary witness of this sighting, as reported in another database file. A full detailed report can be found at http://psi-app.com/SeptSightingA.htm This stands to be a very significant event in the September 1st wave. Our secondary witness just happens to be a reporter for another news paper.

odd light dropping what a prob

I was returning from a night out with friends talking outside my home, when we noticed all was quite ((sic. quiet)). I was looking at the sky when i saw what appeared a light but its was odd, it was like a bright old style street lamp color orange yellow but unlike the street lights didn't give off a holo nor too bright to look at. 3 of us were now watching this object and then faded out and about 20 seconds later appeared in a different location further away so I decided too wake my sister and mother too see if what we where seeing they would see. I went back outside and it moved again too another location by the time mom and sister came out it moved about 8 times ruffly and when I mean move it blinked out and appeared in another location jumping what would be about few miles at a time staying in a ruff 5 mile radius. Then the odd thing from the light came out what looked like a flare toward the ground which dropped out the light and leaving a fiery trail behind it and then it stopped for about 2 seconds and with a flash like a shooting star went too the ground and then we heard a thud, now 2 of the 5 ppl watching this started praying which freaked me out, then the flare that dropped came back up again like a shooting star were it stopped before the light and went into the light which faded out not too come back.

(this happened many years ago and the dates are approximate.)

two friends and i were walking to one of there houses at about 7 or 8 pm. it was just getting dark and it was a warm clear eavning, i think it was somewhere around august of 1982 or so, i was about 13 or 14 years old at the time, i am 44 now! anyways...while walking on this quite night i noticed something in the sky and told my friends to look up at what i saw!... there was 3 balls of fire flying about 200 yards away just above to the right a bit of us. they were in almost a V formation, traveling very slowly and from roughly a south to north direction. they were so low that we could hear the fire blowing in the wind as they moved through the sky. they had small trails of fire behind them and as we watched, one of the fire balls went out compleatly but we could still see it flying with the other two. they were round, about 10 to 20 feet across and dark in color except for the fire of course... they were way to low and traveling way to slow to be meteors or comits. they wer! e not planes or helicoptors and were silent except for the wind blowing through the fire. my friends and i just watched as they kept on ther way untell we could not see them anymore,(about 6 to 8 min.)
