Two very bright white objects traveling from south to northwesterly direction.

Two very bright objects glowing white, that I at first glance thought were stars were slowly moving across the sky to my southwest. One was slightly behind and above the other.

2nd time in just short of a year that we experienced this phenomenon within 3 miles of first sighting.

On the evening of 5/17/2014, I had walked out of the back door of my house to let my dog out to do its business. When I looked up into the sky to see a what appeared to be very intense redish/orange ball of light coming out of the North heading due South across the sky. This object was flying at an altitude that appeared to be just above the mountaintops when I first spotted it. I ran inside an had my wife come out into the backyard to witness this event. The object seemed very rapidly ascend into the sky with the glow dissipating as it ascended. I was able to capture this event by recording it on my cellphone. When it reached a certain altitude, the object started to dim and appeared to flicker on and off twice, then it appeared to be a black craft triangular in shape very high in the sky. This craft then disappeared from sight. As I turned to go back into the house, my wife had called to me in a loud excited voice and exclaimed that another redish/g! lowing object was flying the same pattern and route as the first. We were able to also video tape this object as well. I had instructed my wife to retrieve our son's telescope but was unable to bring the object into focus with the telescope. We videotaped this object as it rapidly ascended and suddenly disappeared out of sight. During the videotaping, I was able to video an aircraft flying high above our house roof with its blinking lights to clearly show the contrast between the aircraft and these two objects that we saw and filmed. The very interesting but disturbing thing about this encounter is, that we had seen the same phenomenon approx. 3 miles East of where I live the later part of last summer while riding our motorcycle. We pulled off the road with 4 other vehicles and we all watched in amazement as 5 of these objects did aerobatics unlike anything we had ever seen. They like the two comparable objects we had seen tonight ascended rapidly and seemed to vanis! h into the atmosphere. I had made a report of last summer's sightings on the MUFON site. I had since been trying to make sense of this. I had first heard of this site from the Coast to Coast A.M. radio program. I started listening to Coast to Coast after the first encounter. I would very much like to have a follow up concerning these sightings and I will say that it sort of unnerves my wife and I, especially being that we have witnessed this phenomenon twice. Also of note, on both occasions, these objects did not make any discernible noise whatsoever the whole time they were visible.

I was in this location not by choice but by accident. this night became a fight for my survival, as i was lost in this area and had to keep moving to fight off hypothermia. one thing is for shure, i know what i saw and i had time to study it. At first i was trying to find a residence or camplight on any thing to get me off that mountain. the moon was a half moon, so it was providing light. and misleading light as i would soon discover. i would see what would appear to be a bright light , and i would hike to it only to find that it was a reflection i think of of a rock that seemed to reflect silverih once i got to it. After this happened time and time again ,i came to an area of several formations of towering rocks that were lighting up. This is wear i first noticed the sphere the triaigal with the docking smaller rectangel part. I stood ther first looking at the sphere and it was positioned at ten o"clock apearing to be tipped on access 50% with a br! ight light on one end . how ever, i noticed that it was disguised to look as if you were looking at the night skyline. i had the opertunitty to notice the outer edge was cleare just as though it were a lighter shade of midnight blue. In size it would be the size of a hundred yards in cercumfrence. like i said one brightlight and other lights smaller in comparisson scatered all about to emulate the outer skyline , but held within the sphere. The larger craft was twice the size as to it perportion , it two had a bright light in two different locations yet it had lights all over it, and an outline like the sphere. the detatching craft had multipel lights around its outer edge, and smaller lights throughout. the detatching craft looked as if it 20 yards across by 40 or 50 yards long. I had to keep moving to stay warm so i ha dto keep moving an ran off . i was resqued two hrs later when i made it to a resedence. and the sheriffs came . i did not file areport about this to them ! but a feww of my friends and i are going to investigate this w! eekend .

we live in a high area of military . with all its sofistication what made me notice them was they were not moving with the earths rotation but lagged behind the rotation .

I'm still seeing those flickering lights, and according to the reports, I'm not alone!!! This time the colors are more vivid!!!!

When I got home late from my 2nd shift job, and pulled in my drive way. I noticed those flickering craft in the clear night sky again! I have reported these crafts 3 different times to three different organizations! This makes # 4. But no one will take me serious. I HAVE VIDEO AND LOTS OF IT, THEREFORE I HAVE PROOF!!!! But these amazing air crafts, just keep showing up!!!!!! I have looked at many reports and to my surprise , A lot of people are reporting the same thing. Flickering lights that emit multi colors, and then the light orange ones that don’t flicker. The light orange ones are different! They slowly dim down and move and then slowly light back up. They move the same as the flickering ones though! A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SEEING THE SAME AIR CRAFTS!!!! From the east coast to the west!!!! If your reading this please contact me!!! I will show you!!!!! EVERY NIGHT THE SKY IS CLEAR THEY ARE THERE!!! Some nights they are more active then others. And on 02/18/10 they were active and flickering brighter than ever!! I’ve seen them so much now that I always assume they are there. And when I look, sure enough there they are! I always confirm it by waiting for them to move. I have 6 rough hours of video edited down to 2 hours. Plus on the 18th of Feb, I taped some more!!!!!! You can see the movements on tape but its hard to see, because I believe these crafts are hovering possibly outside of our atmosphere. Making them who knows how far away!!!! But you can see the movements on tape and a lot easier with the naked eye!!! On 02/18/10 I had to get out my video camera due to the fact that, I’ve never seen the multi colors so bright and vivid before! On this night two of them where unusually bright and vivid, and these two looked liked identical twins, both flickering at the same rate and everything!!!! Then there was 1 normal whitish one flickering out in th! e distances. But when I got my wife outside to look she was also surprised that the colors where so noticeable, but then she pointed out that the orange one that was almost straight above us, was dimming down. And when I looked I saw it dim down and move around erratically and then stop and brighten up. Just to repeat its self and dim down again and move. It did this over and over again. They make all kinds of weird turns, stops, loops, dips and zig zags. There is no craft known by the general public that is capable of what they do. I have lots of theories about who they are and what there doing , and how they do what they do. But I need help bringing this to light!!!!!!! I need more witnesses, and a lot better camera!!!!! WE NEED TO BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH IN EACH OTHER!!!!!!!!! I would really love to meet up with anyone and show them what I’m seeing. I promise , you will believe me if you allow me to show you!!!!!!!!!!!! Ple! ase contact me!!!!!

They look like stars, but flicker! They accelerate very fast, & brake just the same! Move weird & come in 3's arranged in a triangle

The climax of my first night, and all my other sightings, was when I was watching six of them and they all moved up at the same time in a very unique way! I’ve seen these UFO’s 5 different nights now. I’ve got two other witness’s , and as of now I’ve got about 1 hour of good video tape all together . Usually when I see them its between 10:30 p.m and 1:00 am eastern time. They usually appear in threes, and only on the very first night was there ever more than three confirmed moving in the sky in one night. These UFO’s seem to have intelligent operator’s. I say this because I’ve went out side twice to try to see them better on the first couple nights but when I went out they became very still, and continued to remain still for 10 mins or so after I went inside my house. To be honest and upfront, They look and in a sense act like star’s. That’s the main reason why I said they had intelligent operators! In due time these ufo’s “glide “as I call it across the night sky. But they don’t only glide! They make short, very very fast jerky movements at times. I’ve seen them do u turns, complete loops and double loops, sometimes they do pointless maneuvers like, right-----à left , right---------àLeft, right------à and I’ve seen them do 45 degree turns one right after another, They flicker but usually are the same basic colors of the stars, but the same three seem to keep appearing and one of the three is always a amberish color. But they have a flicker effect to them that always catches my eye. I spotted the very first one only because it was flickering. They make, what look like very short, fast, and erratic movements, but If your not watching that one target you would never see it moving, But on the other hand, if your only watching the one SO CALLED STAR no human alive would doubt me when it moves !!! I’ve seen them slowly dim out, I’ve seen them flicker what seemed to be, at one another , and then start to flicker in sync. When they flickered at each other and in sync the did it very brightly, and instead of a flicker, they kind of flashed. But the night they flickered at one another and in sync was my on first night. That night I spotted one, then I identified three, then out of no where three more showed up, and than I was watching multiple targets move at once, since at that time they all moved rather close to each other and grouped up. That’s around the time they all moved up in a weird fashion “which can be described if asked” The only time I could really count them was when they all moved weirdly up together. They would dim down and disappear and reappear out of nowhere. But when they moved up together , they all stayed lit up, allowing me to count quickly.

But the most craziest part is when a bright one, “some are brighter than others” Shot out three more of these ufo’s . One came out straight down. Then the other two shot out at a downward 45 degree angle , one on each side. The climax lasted maybe, 4-8 mins then if they didn’t dim down and disappear, they moved slowly out of the South East sky, and continued moving to and threw the south southeast sky, until I could not see them no more threw my window. But , the way they move makes no sense, and the way they accelerate is UNBELIVABLELY fast!! They seem to be able to stop just as fast as well! I have a lot more to say but don’t want to ramble on. There is so much to gain from what I’m seeing. I can only hope you take me serious. I would gladly upload the video I‘ve got but my camcorder use’s 8mm tapes, but I’ve burned it to a dvd+R disc, but I cant get my computer to read it!!!! I could mail a copy????? When I video taped I opened my window ”even though it was freezing” and removed my screen and video taped while my camera sat completely still! Some of the video is really convincing!!! Now, I love outer space and stargazing! I just turned 29 this year , so for about 15 years now I’ve avidly looked at the sky. And I wouldn’t be writing this, nore would I have lost any sleep the first night, if I had stopped watching what I thought might have been a quasar ‘ which didn’t alarm me until it moved!”, just one second before it started moving. But when that star/quasar started moving, well lets just say that’s 3 seconds of movement I’ll never forget! I need more and better cameras, I need professionals to see this!!!!!! Please contact me!!!!!!!! I don’t want to be famous, I just want the truth !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.s I just seen that I can mail my dvd+R disc to you so, I will do so. And the disc will contain my best 15 seconds and all the footage I can stuff on one disc. If you can not get it to play, I'm going to use a different burner to copy it, and i will send it again if you have problems

Orange orb or light in the night sky - Blanchard Michigan 8-8-9

August 8, 2009 approximately 11:10 pm EST while attending a reunion event and concert at the park.

Observed near Millpond Park, 11178 W Blanchard Rd, Blanchard, Michigan 49310 My fiance and I saw an orange orb in the sky in mid-Michigan, USA. It was luminous and steady, not moving at all, perfectly round and orange in color. At first I thought it might be a radio tower but there was none -- it appeared over a wide field out in the country. It seemed suspended in the air, not wavering, the orange light steady and unflickering. Excepting the moon, it appeared larger than any planet I’d seen in the night sky and appeared to be northeast in the sky, judging from the position of the pavilion where we were located. Clouds moved in the sky BEHIND the object but the object was motionless. It was windy out -- light storms and rain had been moving in and out of the area that evening. We enjoy watching nature and had seen clouds drifting over the waning moon about a half hour before seeing the orb. I’d say the height off the ground seemed to be about 15 stories or more -- about the height of a radio tower. It faded away after a few minutes but never moved fr! om the spot where we’d first seen it (but it was in the sky when we first observed it… we did not observe it “appear.”) We pointed the object out to a couple who were at the event with us. They looked at it but didn’t seem phased. I wish I’d had my camera! We tried the cell phone camera but it didn’t catch the light. It seemed beautiful and odd.

My boyfriend and I are both nature enthusiasts and spend quite a lot of time outdoors observing and photographing nature. I'm a graphic designer and natural clairsentient. Interestingly enough, I had "vibes" about attending the gathering in Blanchard, despite an iffy weather report, and joked to my boyfriend about maybe seeing a crop circle (we'd just watched a documentary about them a few weeks before). Nope, but we saw plenty of haystacks on the drive home the next morning.

Thank you.

Characteristics: Lights on object

A friend of mine and I were outside late at night around 3 AM, just hanging out and talking on his porch. All of a sudden, we saw three lights in a triangular formation in the sky. My father is military, and has showed me what different airplanes look like at night, so of course I tried to match these lights up to the lights of common airplanes. Blanchard, Louisiana, is in the middle of nowhere in Northwestern Louisiana. Just as I was trying to figure it out, the lights all moved at once to the right in the sky at an outrageous speed. They zipped to the left and diagonally to the right again, all the while keeping in a triangular formation. The lights were white and very bright; their light drowned out the light of the stars. They were moving so fast it was hard to keep up with them. No sound came from the lights at all. It was very quiet.

My friend and I watched in amazement and a little bit of terror as well. It was so strange; we both had never seen anything like it in our lives. The lights decided to zoom towards us; they seemed so close that I thought if I reached out I could touch them. But before I could do that, the lights sped off into the distance and disappeared. It was a truly amazing experience.

Strange large bright lights seen in sky over Blanchard, OK March 18th.

It was dark out so they didn't see the shape but they saw 3 huge bright lights and it was traveling from the southeast to the north at a slow speed. After it passed they felt this big gust of wind where there had been calm before it. The kids ages 6,8,10,&11 were on the patio in the dark playing when they saw it. They all came in the house screaming telling us what they had seen and I stepped outside the house and felt the wind. I am their grandmother and I made them all sit down and sit so they couldn't see each other and had them draw on a piece of paper what they had seen before they had a chance to talk it over between them. Their drawings were eerily similar.
