Location: Pineville, KY, USA
Location details: Rural town Southeastern KY

Shape: Disk
Color: Reflective silver
Estimated Size: 35 FT
Viewed From: Land
Angle of Elevation: 90
Closest Distance: 3500 FT
Estimated Speed: 35-50 MPH
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Observed a classic disc shaped object at very low altitude during daylight and clear skies.

I was visiting an old friend from high school and we were out in the street in front of his house near the bed of his truck just talking. There was no one else on the street and there was no traffic at this time becuase it is a very small town. Something caught my eye coming over the mountain to our left very slowly at the time I just assumed it was an aircraft of some type until it was directly over head and then it was obvious to both of us this was not any type of typical aircraft or drone. We had a very clear view with nearly perfect conditions, it was moving very slowly, and made absolutely no sound, no lights, no wings, no props or means of visable propulsion. I was able to take 7 photographs which upon closer view clearly shows some type of electric discharge around the craft with a visable blue / purple haze near the rear of the craft. I immediately checked my flight radar on my phone which showed no aircraft in general area. Furthermore, the following day I went to the nearest local airport, very small airport, so small in fact I was able to speak with the actual owner and had him verify the air traffic in the area at the exact time and location, he stated there was nothing. In the following weeks I had a friend fly his Cessna 175 coming from the same direction at around 65 MPH, at an altitude of 3500 ft and it was not even close. I could easily discern it was an aircraft, I could hear it before it even came into view, the wings, tail, landing gear was clear to the naked eye....it was nothing like what I observed that night. I do have 3 sec video clips that were imbedded into the photographs that I was unaware of until months later....it shows the disc " zip " at an extremely high rate of speed but at the same time it was perfectly controlled. Its one of those things you have to see to understand it, I will gladly share the photographs when someone contacts me and I can discuss the sighting in greater detail.

It was scary it followed me!! Im too scared to walk outside please help!!

Shape: Sphere


Silver sphere shimmers into focus for about five seconds before disappearing.

My husband and I were outside preparing to grill steaks. A couple of ultralight planes fly over fairly regularly and were making their trip North that afternoon. As we watched them fly over, a silver sphere shimmered into focus about 20 feet above the ground near the corner of our porch. My husband spoke at the same time I did. I said, "Holy crap!" He said, "did you see that?!?" Had he not seen it and spoken also, I probably would've just attributed it to some crazy anomaly that I was seeing because of the angle I was looking. From my vantage point, it seemed to shimmer back out but he said it shot to the East from his viewpoint. (We were facing in such a way that our lines of sight were perpendicular). I had never seen anything like that before. It kind of reminded me of a giant bubble with the iridescent shimmer just before it became a solid silver. Then, again, as it disappeared, it became iridescent before it completely disappeared.! We live on a military facility but didn't say anything for fear of sounding a little crazy...or of inciting panic. It hasn't been back but we always watch for it when we're outside.

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

Bright white light traveling beside a military transport.

On this afternoon, me and youngest daughter, aged 11, were watching the clouds and sunset as we normally do. During this, I observed a C5a Galaxy military aircraft flying east to west, I observed this aircraft with binoculars for ID. I commented how big the contrail was and my daughter thought it was very cool.

After it passed overhead, it turned to the northwest from my 12 o'clock position, I handed the binoculars to my daughter to watch it. She then stated that there was something beside the plane, I asked flying beside or was it in different travel path. She said no it was beside the aircraft, I asked if it was another plane and she stated she didn't see any wings on it that it looked like a light. She then handed the binoculars to back to me.

I observed the light and it was white in color, when I saw it, it was no longer beside but had dropped back behind the C5. It was at this point the light began a westward track and seemed very slow. I observed no wings or tail. The object was not flashing but a steady white light color.

I asked my daughter if she could she it without the binoculars and she stated no. I looked without them and could not see it. It was only visible with the binoculars. I then handed them back to my daughter but she was unable to find it again.

We saw several aircraft that night including a Fed-Ex plane (ID'd by paint scheme with binoculars), all had contrails and were identifiable as winged aircraft. This was not.

If I was to guess size, due to the distance I would be hesitant and guess near the size of the engines at the distance we saw.

blinking light over Missouri/Arkansas border that moved and "hovered" strangley

At 1:15 a. m. I exited my home from the back door that faces South. I looked up and noticed a bright light that I thought was a star until it moved to the left then stopped also then it appeared to rotate clockwise. After staying in this position for a bit it appeared to grow smaller (as if moving directly away from us) but it did not change position in relation to the stationary object that we were comparing it to. The object then emitted a light (like light diffusing through a cloud) for a brief second (my husband also witnessed all this). The object also disappeared completely 4 times only to reappear visibly smaller. Also the whole time the object was blinking with a steady light both white and blue.

Series of white lights in the southwestern sky.

I had just left the fire station and was driving westbound on Highway 28 east. I noticed what appeared to be fireworks up ahead, they were in the west southwest sky. I saw a large white light that turned into an a semi-circle of 4-5 smaller lights but same in light intensity. They lasted only a few seconds.

After I saw this happen at least 2 more times I took out my camera and switched to video mode in case they appeared again. While on a straight away I observed these lights again, they were in the southwest.

While driving, I turned on the camera and zoomed in on the lights. They were again 1 larger light then an arch/semi-circle of 4-5 smaller lights. They didn't appear to pulse brighter/dimmer, they just seemed to light together then go out together. They didn't look to me to be flares as they didn't change in elevation or go out separately, pulse as flares normally do. The lights appeared to stay on the same elevation. The video shows the light in the sky then go out. Not a lot of detail is available other then to show there were lights and that they went out together and no change of altitude was seen.

We spoke via telephone with this witness, and he sounded quite sincere and serious-minded to us. He holds a job that saddles him with a considerable amount of responsibility. PD

long snake/worm like horizontal multicolor shape jumping all over the place and into different shapes.

I saw a multicolored star, which looked like a star with the naked eye, but, because it was moving more than just what some see as gravitational, I deceided to get my boniculars and saw quite a different sight than what I could see with the naked eye.

It was multicolored, red, white, green etc. It moved very very quickly and did all kind of shapes. It looked like a snake shaped but it was also horizontal rectangle. It seemed to have a white circle on one end as it was moving so fast into spirals, figure 8, zig zag, and it was just moving into all kinds of shape as this snake shaped or worm shaped so called star was moving around and jumping around.

I have seen this before in the past and it is very curious. I would like to know what this could be. It is interesting that it looks like a star but what got my curoisity was the multicolor of it and it seemed to move the clouds as it moved down, down more than a gravitational force I think.

I also see helicopters that fly behind the mountain trees where I live which come late in the night or and early am, and they fly down . I do not know what is behind these mountain trees, as far as I know it is just mountains but it is curious to me.

So, this is what I am reporting, a star that when seen with binoculars is quite different.

Thank you, Vicky

It was around 11:30 pm and I saw rising up behind the trees a multi colored object. One light was flashing, it happened so fast.

It was around 11:30 pm and I was looking outside my window, a second story apt , looking at some stars that seemed to be moving around. I got my binoculars out and started to look but did not see much and just after looking at these stars I saw a multi colored object come out from behind the trees ( mountain ) and rise up. It was all full of colors, it happened so fast, I saw alot of red, orange and maybe other colors I do not remember it happened so fast and I was exicted. This object rose up, it was a beautifull colored ruby red or cranberry red beautiful color, it had which looked like two lights but only one was flashing. The light that was flashing was to the left, or it's right light, it was large and flashing quickly and the other was not, it went up and than started to travel towards my direction and I left the apt and went to the other side to see it. I went ouside, looked up and saw it continued traveling, but it was traveling more like a fast plane, not like a helicopter speed but like a plane, fast plane. It all happened so fast. It just came out from behind the tall trees, rising up, alot of colored lights, not a star, nothing like a star it happened so fast I can hardley remember now or right after what I saw, but it was there, like a christmas tree and I saw it mostly from my binoculars at magnified close up. It is almost like I can not remember it and so soon after? I saw something, something that was filled with alot of colors, flashing like headlight, only one of the two? flashing? rising up behind the tall trees. I live in the mountains, a apt complex.

I have had missing time or where I was one minute in one place and than something happened and I was much further along on two occasions and on another like some type of time change, but in the same place.

I have also had like something like out of body but more like spirit travel, where I instantly and with no notice, begin to feel I was traveling underground, to NY, on to a UFO and I saw three beings, military blanket on the first floor, computer panel circular room on second floor. Another time, the same type of expereince of travel, where again I was very relaxed but not really asleep, traveled again but this time on a rocket, much faster, landed like a ufo would land one two three very easy and fast, and I found myself inside a dome enclosure.

I also saw about 5 years or so ago, a bright white ball of light traveling very fast, from the west to the east around 3am in the am in south florida. It seemed intelligent to me.

Thanks. I wonder if what I saw tonight was a ufo, alien or could it have been a government craft since it was , once up in the sky traveling at a speed more like a fast plane? but the ...all the colors! the cranberry apple bright beautiful color red? the one flashing light? the light was like a smaller version of a spotlight but much much bigger than any plane would have when seen flying! it was amazing but it all seemed to leave me, what I saw seemed to leave my memory so fast? Behind these trees there seems to be activity. I saw once a large big white like spot light facing me, directly in my direction? than it moved to the right and just was gone? there is nothing behing these trees but woods....the mountains?

Sun light relecting off a metallic type surface.

Myself, my wife and daughter were traveling Westbound on Hwy 28East in Pineville to go the pharmacy. The sun was setting and the sky was bright and clear with very few clouds if any. As we approached the top of a hill i saw off to the west a bright object in the sky,it seemed to be almost metallic. It reminded me of the light reflecting off an aircraft as it turns, the object did not appear to be moving . My wife and daughter asked what it could be,at first i thought it was an airliner, but when it didnt move i began to wonder. We were traveling in that direction, at times it seemed to disappear but would return to the same spot.As we waited to turn into the parking lot i noticed a second object that appeared to make a turn toward the 1st but i was unable to see what it did after as i had to turn.After we pulled into the pharmacy parking lot i backed up into a spot so i could watch the object further, but after parking it was no longer visiable. It could have been 2 airliners or even a weather ballon but i really don't know, i do know it was metallic in look with the sun reflecting off it.

rectangular, black metallic, hover, silent, huge, low to ground, two witnesses

My friend and I were out looking at Christmas lites. I was driving. We were almost back to our dorm and was stopped at a stop sign. There wasn't hardly any traffic.

My friend and I was amazed. It was huge! Black metallic rectangular shaped. It was close, hovered, and soundless. We were speechless. In addition, my car actually died and did not start until the craft was out of site. When it moved, it rotated. I was thankful my friend saw it with me or else I would have questioned my sanity.

Before I saw it, I did not believe in the possibility and was strongly against the existance of such things. However, ever since, I am very interested in the possibility of UFOs and possibility of other intelligent life forms.

I am glad that I saw this. Even though many didn't believe us, we KNOW what we saw and experienced. I will never forget and could draw a picture of it even now...almost 30 years later.

This happened sometime in the early 80s as i was still in High School.I had taken our dog out,and had decided to sit on the porch for awhile.I was watching the dog when something in the sky caught my eye. Off to the west i noticed a sphere shaped object that appeared to be glowing as a fire. I watched as it seemedto climb parralel to a radio tower (the tower is a 1/2 mile away,the object was further) for about 3-5 minutes.Then with no warning it seemed to pulse brighter,as it reached the top of a tower i was using as a guide/landmark. but it didnt disappear,it appeared to intenseify if you will....it started giving off what looked like miniature sized objects of itself,i watched as about 6-8 of these objects came off and flew off in different directions.After the objects left the Larger shape (which i believe to be a mothership of somekind) decreased its firey glow ,then moved straight about what looked to me 100' then took off toward the north at great speed. This was the 1st of 2 sightings like this i saw in that week.

As i stated in the earlier summary this was only the first sighting of 2 i would see in that week.I will tell about the 2nd here.As usual i had taken the dog out about 1700-1800hrs. I noticed that the object i had seen a few days earlier was back. It was sitting adjacent to the towers again in almost the same exact location as it was previous.The Object appeared to be very large but distant.It kinda reminded me of a small sun or moon glowing a yellowish glow. After watching this it again pulsed really bright,but this time it didnt dispatch the smaller objects it was recalling them. I watched as 6-8 small objects exact duplicates of the larger one but smaller return to the larger object.after they had returned which took about 5-6 minutes i realized my parents were inside i hollered for them to come see the object i saw earlire in the week as i had told them of the previous sighting. After they had come on the porch the object again took off to the north at great speed.If memory serves this was a time when several objects had been seen in our area and sevral were reported to our local Air Force Base which has now closed.I have never seen this event again since.

05/10/64 02:00 Little Creek KY humming noise/house shaking

This was a long time ago, but I remember quite well.

We were all asleep. I awoke to the sound of my mother screeming, go away, go away.

Mom was opening a drawer looking for a gun, it was a .22 that grandmother kept hidden away. The house was shaking and the object appeared to be very close to the top of the roof. I was about 5 years old and I sleep with my mother, so I jumped out of bed and ran to mom, she pushed me away and kept looking through the drawer.

The whole house was awake by now and the windows were vibrating, there was a low humming sound coming from over the house. The noise stopped and everything went back to normal for that night but we would be visited many times after that.

The object that my whole family witnessed was round on the bottom with lights that circled in to directions, yellow, orange, and green. It stopped right over us as my aunt, brother, cousin, and myself were walking accross the road to go home from grandmothers. It moved when we moved, it could be gone in a second and back just as fast. It terrified us for years and left my mother scared for her life.

I now live in WV and my children and I have seen a newer version of the craft.

It has the smooth look of the ship from Flight of the navagator.

It rolls back and forth through the clouds as if it were playing with them.

It has a silver color and the sun reflects off of it.

We have visiters that we know, but what or who they are is our guess.
