Bright white light outside of window, zipped away at unreal speed

It was a clear night and I had to pee, so I went to the bathroom in my house which has a big slanted window (like a skylight but on a slanted wall). After I was in there for 20sec, a bright light flooded the room, almost as though it were scanning it. I immediately felt chilling negative energy, so stayed where I was and tried to lean back and make myself small (light didn't direct at me, but went in the center of the room and then scanned towards the mirror). The source of the light was probably 5-6ft from the window. Then, it zipped away into the woods in a curved path at a speed faster than anything I'd ever seen, with a few lights on it (reddish orangish ans white) and disappeared entirely.

Observer: Me. I am well educated and don't really believe in the whole alien thing but what I saw cannot be explained with known facts. It definitely spooked me.

Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

I sighted a C shape 8 foot tall partly cloaked craft silently hovering next to a telephone pole.

I am a United States Marine Corps 0311 infantry rifleman veteran. November 24th 2021 The sun was down and the sky was a bright pink/purple at dusk. My girlfriend and I were on our way to her mom's house in Latrobe, PA. She was driving and I was looking ahead when something that first made me think of a torn a dark plastic bag blowing in the wind. This wasn't moving though and I realized the wind wasn't really blowing at the moment anyhow. I'm baffled and am really zoning in trying to figure out what I'm looking at. It was difficult because from this angle all I could see is something thin and dark in a shape that I couldn't relate anything to. We are driving about 35mph and as I got closer I had the thought maybe something is caught on this telephone line or on some fishing line or something. As we got to a more parallel angle to this object I could see it perfectly. It was about 6 feet to the right and a foot higher than the telephone pole. My eyes went from the mysterious black object to what was connected to it at the bottom. It reminded me of a flat steel beam bent in the shape of a C just floating there. Not making a sound and having no other obvious body. On the metal I could see maybe 12 or 15 bright orange circles evenly spaced apart. I couldn't tell if the orange circles were omitting any light or not. It almost looked like the clouds through the center of the C were slightly distorted. Almost how heat waves can distort an image, except these heat waves were locked in place by a separate gravity. I suspect the rest of the craft was cloaked with extreme technology. We drove passed it and I looked forward and thought to myself "I better look back because I'll never see another one again." (That's the moment I first took it in that is a UFO and the months leading up I have had a weird urge or craving to see a UFO) As I look back it is still there and I see it rotate on its axis as if to look at us. It's rotation was effortless and mesmerizing to watch due to its seamless and masterful movement. It looked slightly different in shape, a little fuller but still a C, from that angle and after it turned to watch the car drive down the road. When I 1st saw it I was probably 150 meters away. There is a large empty field to the right and then some trees about 50 meters past where I spotted the UFO. So I could only see it maybe 80 meters after we past it. I didn't say anything to my girlfriend while it was happening simply because I was trying to figure out what it was at first and when I did I was so amazed I just looked at it with my mouth open slightly! I asked if she saw as soon as I couldn't see it anymore but she said she didn't. I will always regret not telling her to stop. I was not afraid at all. I feel like they are open to communicating with me and ever since this sighting I have had over 100 lucid and or vivid dreams about UFOs landing and interacting with me. This C craft I saw is unlike anything I have seen or heard of in regards to a UFO and it looked like it was cutting edge technologically the top. I suspect the black torn plastic looking peice on top had something to do with the acceleration.

Five lights moving East to West

During the week of 9/13-19, I do not remember the date precisely approximately between the hours of 7:00-8:00 pm, I went outside to bring a bag of trash to the dumpster in my apartment complex. It was at that time that I observed a band of 5 lights which moved in an approximate west to east path. The lights moved in unison and I first believed them to be lights along a\the wings and underside of a small plane.

As I live in relative proximity to an airport, small planes are a common occurrence. As the lights moved closer, I found that I could not make out any tail lights, nor could I hear any engine noise. I observed that the lights continued their course until passing directly overhead. Even as the lights were in a “High Noon” position directly above, I still could not discern any tail lights or sound. There can be traffic noise from the nearby highway at times, but did not notice any at the time, allowing for the realization of the absence of engine noise.

The lights continued their course until finally passing out of sight over the roof of the building. As near as I can remember, all of the lights were of a white colour, or absent of any other colour. I can not approximate the height of the lights, but they were too low to have come from or to be heading to the airport unless they had just taken off or were coming in to land, but as the lights were not heading towards/away from the airport, but rather in a parallel direction, that did not seem to be the case. Also, at the height that they were flying, I feel that engine noise and/or presence of a tail light should have been apparent.

The weather on the night in question was seasonably pleasant and dry with some noticeable light wind at times. At the time of the sighting, it had not yet reached a point of full dark, but the sun had already gone down some time before. A few stars were visible, I do not remember the stage that the moon was at at the time.The parking lot area where I was standing is quite well lit and the sky was extremely clear providing good visibility.

Although I was unable to clearly make out the outline or shape surrounding the lights, they were in a straight line and left the impression of a wing or set of wings. The lights moved in unison as if affixed to a wing, traveling parallel to each other and not led by one light, with the other lights following.

Normally I would ascribe a sighting like this to a plane as, as I have said, they are common and usually readily recognizable. In this case however, the above mentioned anomalies have left me with the impression that this was somehow different and that impression has been nagging and constant ever since.

Shape: Diamond


I saw a very bright light in the sky. At first I truly thought it was a plane. As the object got closer, the light's and object became brighter and larger in size. It looked like an enormous spotlight in the sky, heading towards us. It moved fast until it came close to us, then it moved almost in slow motion until I stopped in the middle of the road, just staring at it. I then pulled into the gas station, and was yelling at my husband to grab my phone and record . Repeatedly asking him, "what is that"? What is that?? I could see the entire underneath of it. It was a semi- diamond shaped object. I say semi because it wasn't EXACTLY a diamond shape. Under the object there were dozens of florescent lights, ranging in color from blue, green, red, and orange lights.. Underneath there was a semi circle of lights blue and red. Around the semi circle was a shape of a diamond or square depending on the viewpoint. The lights outlining the square/diamond shap! e underneath were green and orange in color. I am a person of sound mind, but this had me completely shaken. I was screaming at my husband, and honestly thought I was going insane. Never in my life have I seen anything like this. Ever. There's not a soul in this world that can tell me, nor convince me that this was a plane. It appeared to be 8 times bigger than any plane I've ever seen in my life. I am still very confused, and shaken over this. I will never in my life, forget this experience. For it has made me really think, over and over..... what did I see in the sky that night???

Orange lights in the sky.

On my way to work, using a side road to hit a major highway, off to my left there were orange-ish lights in the sky.

I stopped, and went in reverse then stopped to make sure what I was seeing was real.

I pulled out my phone and recorded for a few seconds, looked at the lights for a bit longer then took off down the road as not to be late for work.

Unexplained lights seen near hot air balloons early in the morning.

My daughter was driving down Cemetery Road at about 7:20 this morning. She took a right onto Island Pond Road in Derry, NH, after passing the fields on either side of the road, she noticed two hot air balloons floating along up above her to the right of her car. She quickly shot two pictures through her windshield. The first showed one balloon, a large yellow balloon with a smile face on one side of the balloon above the tree line from the angle she shot the picture at.

The second picture she took a moment later shows two hot air balloons, the large yellow smile face one and a multi-colored balloon with white designs, what seems to be a cloud still higher up above the multi-colored balloon and two shiny circles above and to the right of the smile hot air balloon.

There is also what seems to be a double vapor trail and two white shapes which could be clouds to the far right in the upper corner of the picture; it's a bit hard to tell.

When she sent the picture to me from her smart phone, I was able to use the touch screen to enlarge the picture and it looks like the two large white circles are lights with a rectangular gray colored shape behind the bright lighted circles. There is nothing else near it and we are both baffled as to what this could be.




((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS, 23SE14))

Peter,

One more quick note. Daughter took a series of pics in the same spot this morning. You are correct. She got the double reflection. It didn't look exactly the same but it was close enough.

Best regards.

Two vertical columns of lights appeared at dusk

My college friends and I spent the afternoon hiking in the Kisatchie National Forest. We hiked the Longleaf Nature Trail and looped back to the first butte on the trail. While standing atop the butte one has a commanding view of the forest, treetops, and distant horizon. Above the eastern horizon I noticed several round yellowish bright lights began to appear at a relatively high altitude—maybe 5,000 to 10,000 feet—in a tight vertical formation. The lights were very bright, round in shape, and motionless—as if suspended from a strand and they stayed completely still for the duration of the sighting. The lights appeared in order from top to bottom one at a time. The space between each of them was significant enough to distinguish each light had an individual source. A few minutes later a second column of lights appeared parallel to the first about half the distance away as the first column was in length. These lights appeared in the same order from top to bottom. Each column was comprised of seven or eight lights and remained motionless for the duration of the sighting. They were several miles away from our location and we were looking east, at what would be the Red River floodplain. Our two female hiking companions who witnessed the lights got scared after about 10 minutes of observation and insisted that we leave the forest. We watched the two formations for a few more minutes before hiking back to our vehicle. We could still see the top of the formation from the hiking trail parking lot.

I am a 16yr. old sceptic, who found this moveing, and life wakening.

We had been sitting in our hot tub outside on our deck ,myself for 25 minutes, when We sighted a blueish white sphere in the, clear of clouds, southern sky at @730p very low on the horizon approximately the size of a tennis ball that suspended in one spot and then shot westward extremely fast leaving a bluish white trail. The sighting lasted 3-5 seconds. Just long enough for me to query "Did you see that?"...It apeared much like a falling star with an exagerated descent except for the closeness and the size of the object. We both had never seen anything like it and were looking for other places such as news programs to see if others had seen this as well.we both have had many years in aviation and sky watching. This was a novel sighting for both of us. There were aircraft in the sky at this time as well in that we live close to MHT airport. We were hoping that maybe a pilot might have witnessed this.

Observed round red light crossing over highway - then hovering - changing shape - emitting small round blue lights

My 16 yr old son and I were driving down Rt.93S in Derry, NH at 1:00AM and witnessed a red light quickly cross the sky in front of us at a distance of about 200 yards and roughly 100 feet off the ground. Seconds later the light crossed over us. We both thought it was a police helicopter until we realized that it made no sound. To our surprise the light then appeared again to our rear and hovered just to the side of road. Slowing down to see what happened we observed the red light change shape several times - round to diamond to round to diamond to round... Then two small round blue lights shot out of it and they all moved out of sight. We wondered if it might be some sort of govt./military stealth aircraft.

Aircraft that sounds like a rocket launch?

I wanted to report an interesting occurance over my house earlier this month. Before I do, you should know that I am a student pilot, an avid aircraft buff, and have been in/around aircraft all my life. I know the subject pretty well.

I live in Derry New Hampshire, which is not far from the Massachusettes border. On the morning of August 4th, I was still online at 1:00 am. It was a very clear night.

I began to hear a rumbling sound which very quickly graduated to a loud roaring sound, rattling the windows.

I sprinted outside to have a look. Traveling east to west, high overhead, was a single bright white light. I would guess its altitude to have been at least thirty thousand feet, if not more. I could discern no standard aviation lighting, but that's not unusual given the height. What was amazing was the roar! I recently moved back here from Florida's Brevard County, where the sound of rocket launches was somewhat routine. If I had seen this in Florida, I would have thought they were launching a rocket in the wrong direction. As I said, the sound of this aircraft was so loud it rattled the windows, and sounded EXACTLY like a rocket launch. There was no sound of turbines at all.

This sounded extremely powerful. My first impression was that I was looking at a missle coming in from the Atlantic somewhere. The hair stood up on my arms and for a moment I thought..."uh oh". All I can say was that this was no normal aircraft, if that's what it was. I do not believe this was a fighter jet with afterburners on. It was not traveling especially fast, and continued at the same speed throughout its trajectory.

I would like to know if anyone else in the area heard this that night. It was traveling roughly over the Mass/NH border.

The sound actually awoke others in my household, which has never happened before.

Thanks for your time, Greg

strange object hovering over tree line over old railroad bridge.

The object seen was hovering above the treeline. It was a bright white in color with colored lights underneath. The spot where it was hovering was over an old railroad bridge.There is no access for vehicles other than a dirt bike. I could make out windows on the object also. It never moved except the colored lights underneath it flashed. There were two adults in the car at the time. The driver refused to stop or look at the object.I think for fear. Both adults in the car were normal middle class workers. The driver had an expierance in the desert in Navada in 1982. That same evening many people witnessed the same object.
