Showing a new laser and saw something!

Last night I was showing off my new laser I got the other day. The thing goes far far. So we we went out back to shine it in the sky and not even 5 mins out there, I notice what looks like a star, start to move. I thought I was mistaken until it made a circle. I called my girlfriend over to look at it, it was so high up. As I’m shining my laser at it or towards it, it moves and disappears like that. This was my 5th time seeing something like that.

Characteristics: Lights on object

Wing shaped grouping of white dots/lights

Male, age 64, just witnessed a fast-moving triangular structure moving in the southeast direction above Livingston Parish, Louisiana. It appeared to be a grouping of dim white lights (10-20 lights) shaped in a triangular wing shape. Movement was very smooth, no erratic or sudden changes in movement, speed or direction. Could hear a muffled sound as it passed. The object crossed my vision for 4-5 seconds.

Characteristics: Lights on object

Object with two lights moving up and down in back yard.

One of our security cameras picked up a 10 second video of an object floating up and down in our back yard.

Because it was approximately 3:30 am it was dark so all that could be seen was two lights which were rectangular in shape. My husband and I thought it was a drone, but when we turned the sound up all that could be heard was crickets and night insects. A raccoon was on the side of the shed out of view of the object and didn’t seem to be aware of it.

It started about half-way down the side of the shed, then slowly came down a little lower and then went up slowly and the video stopped when the object reached a height just above the top of the shed.

A video captured 11 minutes previously showed nothing unusual and I have seen nothing like it before or since.


((ADDENDUM/RETRACTION SUBMITTED BY SOURCE OF REPORT))

Mistake

I think my "UFO" is some kind of camera anomaly because I have found another video with a very similar (although not nearly as big) capture. It occurred a few days later. I believe it is something to do with moisture, heat and general atmospheric conditions. Sorry!

Unlike anything I've seen in the night sky before

I witnessed a light moving at a constant speed from west to east across the sky. This light was moving faster than any plane or helicopter I've seen and moved slower than a shooting star. It did not blink. It appeared to ascend as it moved across the sky until it disappeared from sight.

Three Bright Red Objects moving Across the Evening Sky

I was walking my dog right at dark today and looked to the Northeast. Three cone shaped, bright red objects were moving in formation across the sky to the Southwest. They were evenly spaced in a formation with the one in the middle higher than the other two.

As they went behind a tree, I waited for them to reappear in the sky. Two had disappeared behind the tree and one proceeded on toward the Southwest.

These objects were very bright red, very high, and made no sound whatsoever. There were no blinking lights, as on airplanes.

I have seen the International Space Station move across the sky and I would say these were moving at about the same speed, though I have no way of judging how high the were.

Object with three red lights, lights turned off as it ascended to treeline

It was about 8:30 pm, my mom and I were outside on the back patio. I noticed a red light moving overhead to the west of us and pointed it out to her, asking what she though it could be.

On the underside of the object was a red light that was steady and did not pulsate. It moved about the same speed as the planes we see flying by, landing at the airport in Baton Rouge.

I walked out into the yard to get a closer look, and two more bright red lights came on, one after the other, making a total of three lights in a small cluster. The object appeared to be approaching us, ascending quickly and moving toward the trees where I was standing.

Then, as it reached the treeline, the lights shut off. Because it was dusk, I could not see the shape of the object.

During the time of the object's ascent, what appeared to be a commercial liner was flying unusually low and to the west of the object, not on a course that I usually observe such planes taking.

Glowing green light appeared for a few seconds over interstate 12 glided downward and disappeared.

My friend and I were driving on I-12 about to exit by Denham Springs when this glowing greenish white light appeared in the sky-WAY to close to be a shooting star, and to close to be an airplane, or helicopter.

It glided so smoothly downwards unlike any aircraft I've ever seen before then the light appeared to go out or disappear. I've never seen anything like it.

Unusual bright lights moving high in the night sky

Walking out of my mother's house last night, I casually looked into the sky and noticed a "star" that was just fading into visibility and moving north. This was not a meteor, as the light appeared constant and controlled. I pointed it out to my girlfriend but she couldn't track it before it faded out. Curiosity had me scanning the sky at this point.

Within a minute, a brighter light caught my attention near the treetops, due north. She saw this one. It was a pure, bright, white light. More intense than any star or planet currently visible. We watched as it appeared to rise from its position and move across the sky towards SE, only not in a straight trajectory. The Baton Rouge airport is tens of miles west of my house, and an airplane (at or near cruising altitude) was also apparent, serving as a means of comparison. Seeing that the light was not fading, I quickly went back to the door of the house to get another witness. The man saw it, and wondered out loud what it could be.

Fireball becomes a saucer right in front of my eyes!!!

I was nearing the intersection where I would be turning right (south) towards I-12. Facing north, I noticed a fireball moving in the northeast night sky. I asked my friend, "What is that?!", pointing it out. She locked on to it easily. The apparent flaming orb stopped moving and hovered. The "flame" went out and the object appeared as having red stationary lights, with white blinking lights.

The light turned green and we darted straight across the highway (east). The lights seemed so close, perhaps within a couple hundred yards high. Coming to a clearing in the trees on my left I saw it just hanging there! I threw on the emergency brake and we both got out of the car. I fumbled with my new phone wanting to take pics or video. I was too rattled and unfamiliar with it to be successful. There was NO sound.

I could make out the shape and surface texture of a metallic disk, the lights under the belly. It was not smooth, but pitted like welding slag. Our jaws were hanging for 20 seconds or so, then the disk turned on its axis and stood like a wheel.

I'm constantly asking, "Do you see this??!"

It moved SSW and when we turned to follow it, when I noticed cars were backing up behind us, and one driver was out of his car too. He was looking at us asking "what are you doing?". I pointed over his head yelling "A UFO!". I didn't wait for him to react.

We got back in the car and U-Turned to follow this thing, but never found it. It was the single most bizarre event of my life!

The night sky was clear. about 79 deg.

Bright light hovering in the sky

On February 22 at approximately 7:20 my daughter and her fiancé saw a bright object in the sky and alerted me to see it. We were standing on my front porch and the object was hovering to the south east of us. The object remains so far it has been there for about 30 minutes. It appears to be moving very slowly and it has lights blinking red and blue and green. It is appears to be near the Baton Rouge Airport. We witnessed several planes flying, they appear to be commercial airplanes. I recorded it with my digital camera. I had to zoom in to capture it. I noticed on camera you could see the lights rapidly changing colors.

This is a real sighting. Been wanting to always see one...no camera on hand.

My wife and I were sitting on our 2nd floor balcony of our apartment. I was watching an airliner traveling Eastbound on the Easternmost horizon.

An object caught my eye which I first thought was a large very white bird flying Westward from the Eastern horizon.

I noticed that this object was V shaped and there was no wings flapping. The object was traveling fast Westbound. I asked my wife, "do you see that"? She said, "yes, what was that"? The object traveled across the whole sky in maybe 4-5 seconds, maximum. It appeared to be around 5- 10 thousand feet high.

My backgroung is law enforcement, and military advisor, served in Bosnia, Kosovo and Afghanistan.

Bright, white, circular light hovering in all directions in the east

The light I saw was the brightest star in the sky, that I could tell. The white circular light was making subtile movements up, down, left, and right. It almost seemed to be hovering. It remained still for a short time and then every minute or so it would move again. This "light" seems closer than that of the other stars. I watched other stars and this one was different.

My boyfriend and I watched this "light" for 35 mins now. We thought we should make sure we weren't crazy so we called a friend. Our friend sat and watched from his house across town and saw the same as us. That's when we decided to make this report. We watched for about 35 minutes and kind of got freaked out and that's when we came in. We will continue watching.

Our neighborhood doesn't have any lights so the sky is very clear. We were observing from our front yard. We were not sure which direction it was in, so my boyfriend got a compass out of the attic. Our compass pointed twords the east. Thank you for you time.

Amber light not flashing nor leaving a trail was traveling at a high rate of speed compared to the plane we witnessed!

On February 22, 2008 at 18:30 hours there was a plane traveling North East at a normal altitude at that same time there was an amber light not flashing nor leaving a trail traveling from west to east at a very high rate of speed comparing to the plane. The light did not slow down nor did it zig zag it went exactly west to east .It was witnessed by me my wife and friends. The plane was north of us at the time we saw the light in the west major distance apart from one another. The light traveled across the sky almost like it was circling the globe and was out of sight past the horizon before the plane was out of sight.

strange swirling lights over Denahm Springs Louisiana February 20, 2006

I was driving home on I-12 East bound just before the Denahm Springs exit when I saw a light formation in the sky that was a large multi-lighted circle of lights swirling over the tree line. The lights were swirling in a stationary area and then just swept away toward the south. I then saw another formation that did the same thing.

Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Changed Color, Electrical or magnetic effects

An intermittently silver & glowing-white cylinder, floating silently, about 1/8 mile up. 2 witnesses.

My son first spotted it. If he had said it looked like a UFO, I wouldn't have bothered looking. But, he said it was a blimp. But, when I looked, I knew instantly that it was NOT a blimp.

This is what I saw: A long, cylindrical shaped "something"; shiney silvery-white color; by this I mean, at times it appeared to be glowing white, but then it would look silver; there was no sound; no contrail; it was about the size of an airplane, but nose not pointed, no wings, just a cylinder shape. Saw it very clearly.

It seemed to be close, about 1/8 mile up in the sky. Appeared at first to be floating. And, was moving slowly, horizontally, instead of up and at an angle the way planes do. Although it seemed to be floating and moving slowly, it crossed the sky into a small dot within one minute!

Don't really know how to express how weird it was. Weirdest thing I have ever seen. Didn't have time to get a picture. It happened too fast.

Characteristics: Lights on object

First sited around 21:27 moving at a very fast constant rate to the NW.

Object appeared to be disk-shaped, but standing on edge. Periphery of object was circled with red and white lights of constant brightness (no strobe or rotation of lights).

Object did not appear to be rotating due to the fixed positions of the lights.

Object swept an angle of about 110 degrees before being obstructed by the eave of the house. At arm's length, the disk was the diameter of a hand (about 2 1/2 inches).

To observe the object, you had to constantly be moving your eyes to keep up with it.

No sound appeared to be coming from the object as it passed.

small flashing lights

On three different occasions I have seen unusal lights in the same general area of the sky. On 11/20/03 at 20:00hrs I witnessed two lights, side by side, that were separated by approximately 1 degree. They flashed in unison twice. The color was about the same as a flash on a camera. The flashes were about 1 second or less apart. I went inside to get my binoculars. When I came back outside, I waited for the light to reappear, as it had before. It did reappear, but there was only one light and it was more round (it was still no larger than Mars looked recently, but this was not Mars)and the color was more of a yellow-orangish hue. It had also moved about 10 degrees to the east and only flashed once. I waited for more. At 20:23hrs the light came back between the positions of the other two sightings and seemed to twist and fade from blue-whte to a yellow-orange color. I have not seen them since. I wish I knew what they were.

We wonder whether the witnesses might have observed "twinkling" stars. Just a guess. PD

Flying object observed

October,1980 @ 7pm: While sitting in the car, waiting to pick up the kids from church, I looked out of the windshield and saw a bunch of lithe up windows in the sky about 700 to 800 feet high. My wife who was also in the car, witness the sighting. I jumped out of the car, and I observed a large craft that resembled a building that appeared to be on its side. It had what appeared to me to be windows, like an office building and they were all dimly lithe up with yellow lights. There were many windows throughout the craft, and not all of the windows were lithe up. Other than the lights that were in the windows, there were no other visibible lights throughout the craft. The size of the windows appeared to me to be about 7 foot tall and 4 foot wide, with perfect corners. The craft was about 300 yards long (and not clear on how wide or deep it was). It was quiet with no sound at all. It was very windy that night. The craft was slow moving and on an even keel. It was traveling south bound. The first ! pass lasted about 3 minutes, and then disappeared, long enough for me to get back into my car. Then it came back on a north bound track and again that lasted about 3 minutes. It appeared to be a dark color and not shinny, like a grey almost black in color.

We tried to make a report by calling the airport, but we could never get through because all of the lines were giving us a busy signal. There were two other men that witness the craft that night. I never got their names, and do not know if they also tried to make a report.

I am an experienced pilot and airplane builder. I have no logical explanation as to why this type craft was flying that night. A craft of that size and shape; I find it impossible to have any type of flying capabilities.

I can only assume, but if there were occupants on this craft, (in my opinion) there is no way that they could be small individuals and had to have been rather large, judging from the size of the windows.
