White or shiny ball or disc in direction of moon moving slowly east

My son and I were in our backyard when he saw a bright circular object in the direction of the moon. We thought at first it was maybe a planet although it was daytime . We watched the object with our naked eyes and binoculars for over 30 minutes moving east slowly away from the moon across half of the sky until we could not see it because of lower clouds. In the binoculars it looked like a white shiny ball or disc. The airline traffic appeared much lower so I would say the object was many miles above 30,000 ft. which would make the object rather large. My wife and daughter also watched with us after we told them what we were doing. The picture is with an iPhone zoomed a little . It was more impressive when looking through the binoculars. Please let me know if anyone knows what this was. Thank you

At least 40 pairs of lights visible with naked eye. But when viewed through binoculars several more smaller lights around the bright pair

And after viewing for approximately 40 mins at least 2 sets of pairs. Stopped, held their location, then slowly started to move again. I have probably 40 to 50 pictures I took with my phone. One video. It was not star link. They wher not in a straight line. Came in pairs off set side by side. With littler dimmer lights around the bright pairs.

Moon rose in two different spots

What I saw has to do with the rising of the moon. One night the moon rose from the North-esst horizon and then a week later the moon rose slightly south east. It basically rose in two different places a week or so apart. I don't know what this may mean. Thanks

Saw airplane fly into space midday

I saw what looked like a small airplane go straight up into the sky and disappear. It looked to me like it had gone into outer space because it got smaller within an area of three inches holding my arm out to the sky. It didn't travel to the horizon it actually just went straight up in the air and disappeared. It had no vapor trail and by the time it went farther up I couldn't see wings on it anymore. Another person was there and he could not even see it when I pointed it out to him even though it was clearly there to me he couldn't even tell it was there.

Disturbing but exciting experience. Formation of lights.

I was looking at Mars and I was also watching a satellite passing by. I always do, but all the sudden a bunch of lights start to passing by. From my location, they were coming from South to East, about 70° or so above the horizon, there’s a lot of them,too many to count,I see them appear and disappear. it’s a short travel. I calculate that the whole thing lasted about three minutes. from the moment I started to see them,it took me about 30 seconds to decide if I go inside the house and take my cell phone, so I did run inside the house took my cell. My recording is almost two minutes long, so I think altogether it was more or less three minutes. I was looking at my recording but I cannot see anything other than Mars, however I’m very happy that today, I find out, throug the Internet, that other people saw the same thing, that’s just great to know!. The experience to me it was disturbing and exciting. Thank you for Reading my message:)

Red lights transform in sky

Friend said "What's that!" pointing to sky and looked up to see 7 red lights in star formation above us. They turned into 3 lights then into one light and seemed to move up in the sky away from us at really fast speed. We were inside the Target shopping center on Main Street when it happened.

large, dull red-colored, round object with a darker brownish glow around the outside going very fast

I heard on the news it was to be the Geminids meteor shower, so I decided to have a look and see if I could see any. I was in the back yard about 5 minutes when this large, dull red-colored, round object with a darker brownish glow around the outside, came across the sky from behind me, directly above me. It looked to be as high as jumbo jets fly, like 30000 or 40000 feet, but it was as big around as the eraser on the end of a pencil and the brown glow extended outward from that, about half as much, the diameter of the red part. It never glowed or illuminated like a meteor would and was going about 100 times faster than an airplane. It went from almost directly above me to halfway to the horizon in about 2-3 seconds. I’ve seen a lot of meteors and I’ve never seen one like that. It seemed to me like it was slowing down as it got farther away but it was going really fast the whole time I could see it, if that makes sense. The sky was cloudless, but there was some lack of darkness from the city lights.

Lights in sky I thought it was a shooting star

I got up early to walk my dog before heading to Sjc airport from my mothers house in Watsonville, ca. I live near Dallas tx. The sighting occurred about 30 min or so before sunrise. I looked up into the sky an noted how clear it was compared to home I then looked over at my dog and saw from my prerfrial vision almost directly above what I thought was a shooting star heading south. I looked at it and focused on it and saw that it was not a single shooting star but a cluster 4 or 5 points of light all moving together at high rate of speed and different intensities, but each one looked no different than any other star in the sky only moving at high rate. As I watched it move towards the horizon I saw two of the lights swap places once and then twice. As it neared the horizon it seemed to slow down as it should from my perspective only more than I would expect and it also turned to the east and went behind a tree and house. During the first half of the sighting I was looking for a tail or sparks coming off the cluster but didn't see any. Due to the odd trajectory of this, I suspect it was over central or Southern California and when it turned east, was heading for Edwards afb or groom lake. I also suspect the points of light swapping places was in fact sunlight reflecting off a shiny surface. There was no sound from it and no sonic boom. There was a passenger jet at high altitude I noticed to the east of the sighting going north and within a minute of the sighting I could hear the jet but no noise from the area the lights were seen. After thinking about it makes sense to land a secret spacecraft on a Sunday morning when the least amount of witnesses could view it. keep looking up in the sky an hour before sunlight if you live on the west coast on Sunday mornings.

I seen this triangle shaped craft flying over my city glowing a bright red light all over.. no blinkers.. no sound..and could stop on a dime a reverse course..not an airplane or helicopter. and was about 50 yards in size..

I reported it to the FAA and U. S. Coast Guard, and found out the next day there was reports up and down the California coast of the exact thing I had seen. The scariest part of my experience was watching it fly with intelligence and as odd as it may sound. When it noticed me noticing it, it changed course and flew away..

Triangle shaped no other color but red and could stop and go at will and hover. Never seen anything like it. Made me shake in fear!

Large gray craft in Watsonville, CA.

I left work for lunch and as I was driving SW and to the South hovering over the Aromas area was a huge gray craft shaped like a ball squished semi flat. My guess is it was 1000+ ft wide. It looked to be about 3 miles away. I find it hard to believe nobody else saw this. I drove on until it was blocked from my view. I don't know what happened to it after that.

Characteristics: Lights on object

Circular or disc shaped flying object with flashing lights, light in color, silent and leaving instantly.

I was walking my dog along a road which is lined with tall eucalyptus and pine trees planted approximately 25-30 feet apart. I witnessed what appeared to be a circular, or saucer shaped flying object. It was the color of a very pale, clear sky. What caught my attention were the round flashing lights around the perimeter. It was flying behind the tall trees. It was silent in its movement, moving in the direction North/Northeast. It was flying parallel to the ground approximately midway between the height of the trees. I ran to the next open space between the trees to get another look, but the object was no longer in sight. It had left the area almost instantly.

When small or large airplanes fly over this area at a much higher altitude, the noise can be heard. This flying object was silent. Because the object left so quickly, I was unable to determine its actual size.

((ADDENDUM FROM SAME WITNESS))

Distance and height of flying object seen

This information is in addition to the first report of this incident. I walked back to the area where I observed the UFO and counted off steps in order to give better location.

I was approximately 15 feet from the fence and the object was approximately 15-20 feet over the fence. Comparing my height 5'3", to height of object it was approximately 15-20 feet above the ground.

This is a quite, rural area at the end of a dead end road. I have never seen anything fly that close to the ground and not make a sound. This incident first seen and reported on January 27, 2011

Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object

Three Fireballs in formation off coast of California, circle into one Fireball and vanish.

As I went out onto my back porch to view the early sunset (Ocean view) I instantly noticed 3 Orangish-red bright balls very far off the coast, literally 100's of miles from the beach moving in triangular formation while rotating clockwise very slowly and moving at a medium speed north.

At this point I called my brother out to view the sight as I knew he wouldn't believe me as I was always the kind of person who would believe in stuff like this, and he would be the kind who would look for a logical explanation.

The fireball like orbs seemed to glow dimmer and brighter at a constant rate. They soon stopped in a perfect triangle formation and after a brief pause, cirlced together clockwise perfectly in to one fireball of the nearly same size.

Shortly after the ball simply vanished or what looked like at the time, extinguished the flame or turned out the light.

My brother and I were dumbfounded, and could come up with no logical explanation.

Location: Watsonville, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

it was similar to a manta ray with no tail bobbing in the sky, black with soft edges

The object was black and triangular shaped just hovering over near the a main drag in my town. no lights or sounds, nothing.At first we thought it must be a big bird. but it was to triangular shaped, and bobbing in the air up and down and side to side in a smooth like motion. like it was just hanging there all chilled out observing the scene. at one point an airplane went bye it almost parallel to the object , and the thing moved to the right a little bit , slowely, like it just flowed, not ridged. my gramma and cousin saw it and we took a picture of it. my cousin was all freaked out . after a while we took turn to see if the object was still there. we only left it alone for like 15-25seconds at a time and then, went to check in it once more, and it had dissaperared! in like 15 seconds! and thatwas it. it got really dark really soon after. it was pretty freaky, kinda gave us all a cold feeling . I was a non beliver , but now im leaning twards the idea that there are things watching us.

Duration: 45 mins
No of observers: 0

Location: Watsonville, CA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Changed Colo

Bright red, plasma-type object seen hovering over Mt. Madonna, are for 45 mins.

Watsonville, CA I went out side to smoke a cigarette and have my coffee at about 6 am. It was beginning to get light out side, but the sun hadnt appeared yet. I was looking at the mountains to the south east ( about 15 miles from my back yard ), and noticed a red burning object in the sky. It looked like the tail end of a missle, the way it was burning. All I could see was the bright red tail (megenta color) . I thought that a missle or rocket was being launched from the hills, but the wierd part was that it didnt go any where. It stayed in one general area fo about 30 mins, slowly moving around. It then started to slowly move east, toward Gilroy, Ca. It dissapeared over the hills for about 3 mins. , then reapeared again, this time moving south. It didnt look like any plane or helicopter Ive ever seen. when the sun came up over the mountains its red-plasma-like color started to slowly turn translucent/white. I assume that it was alot larger than a jet, it also looked like some parts were tranparent.

I dont know what I saw, but Im sure plenty of other people in this area saw it too this morning.

Four slowly moving white round objects seen in sky over Watsonville, CA.

My wife and I had just walked out of the grocery store on Green Valley road and Main St. in Watsonville, CA. It was almost 6pm and the light was still good and the sky was clear. As we were getting into the car, my wife looked up in the sky and said "Wow, look at those 2 objects in the sky." I got out of the car and looked to where she was pointing. There were three round, bright white colored objects (almost like they were refelcting the suns rays) moving very slowly towards the South to Southwest. They appeared to be very high up, yet were distinct and easy to see. We watched as they slowly lined up in a straight line, stopped and stayed in the same spot for about a minute, then they moved into a triangle position. My first reaction was "They're not planes or jets, if they are helicopters they are very high" Their appearance was totally spherical, not like any aircraft we had ever seen. We watched for about 2-3 minutes, and they appeared to be at the same altitude as when we first saw them, so they didn't appear to be balloons or something like that. They moved very slowly, almost like hovering, then stopped, then moved again into a triangle formation. Then after about a minute in this position they spread out into a large V formation as a fourth object slowly approached from the north and joined the V, then stopped in place as the others were. We stood there in the parking lot of the grocery store staring up at the sky in disbelief for 10 minutes. The light was then slowly ebbing into twilight. To confirm whether it was some kind of stellar phenomena, I looked to where Venus was in the sky and I couldn't see it, nor any other stars or planets. I looked back and the objects were still in their V formation, now slowly moving south. We got in our car and drove home attempting in vain to rationalize this to some kind of human created technology.

Characteristics: Lights on object, Aircraft nearby, Landed

Disk shaped object flew low, had 4 light and an antenna, once i began to run after it, it lowered as if it were goin to land.

Something caught my eye that was in the sky. I looked at it, it had 4 different color lights and an antenna in the back. It was flying very low, and was fairly close to us. So it seemed quite big,it made no sound what so ever. Once my friends and I began to chase it, we heard the kanines in the nearby homes bark like crazy. And it started to lower to ground as if it were going to land or crash and it just dissapered!

Location: Watsonville, CA, USA

Shape:


Possible abduction attempt from the unknown.

I was nine years old. I was laying down in the front yard on the grass facing the stars. It was a qiet night. As I stared at the sky, a bright light was coming down towards me. It was so bright that it was hurting my eyes. There was no sound coming from the light. The interesting part of this was that the light came from a high distance and down towards me at such a quick speed. The light fritened me, and I ran in the house. As of today I wonder what it was, and what would of happened to me if I syaed and let the light touch me. It was unbeleivable and something that I have never seen before. I am certain that it was not a human made action.
