Multiple UAP's in the Sky in Broad Daylight Laurel, MS

My wife filmed this above 16th Ave in Laurel, MS back on Oct. 25th at approximately 5:25PM. She was driving our kids to karate and a bright flash in the sky caught her eye. The very beginning of the video is a live photo of the repeated flashes. (Admittedly not a great capture) However, the large light seemed to split into various lights just before she snapped the 2nd live photo. Unfortunately, by the time she pulled over to try and record them properly, they were gone. I converted both of the live photos to videos and then took them into Premiere to slow them down and zoom in, etc.

White circular orbs/lights in sky

I looked up in the sky and saw 4 white round lights/orbs radiating out from the center to 4 corners and back again. They did this constantly for 15 minutes. No associated noise, no beams. They were very precise with their movements.

I saw 4 green dots in the sky in a plus shape moving in a circle then it zoomed away and it was too fast to be drones.

I don't know what details to put here but I was just looking out my window on my bed and I saw four green dots by the way my window was open and there was no screen and there's four green dots in a plus shape moving around and then I saw them zoom off at probably like 200 mph which was too fast to be a drone.

Random balls of amber colored glowing light that seemed to softly float followed by more glowing balls of light that disappeared sudden

On March 26, 2022 I was leaving my sister's house at around 10:35 PM when I noticed 4-5 glowing balls of light randomly floating above the highway. They were a soft amber color, and at first I assumed they were planets or something like that. But the thing that made me pick up my phone to record it was the formation of the first set of lights and the way they just seemed to sit in the sky so effortlessly. It's hard to describe why they struck me as possibly being something other than something that could be explained, but i just got this strange feeling from them. Years ago, I had another experience w a strange sighting. My ex husband and I noticed a strange bright white (I can't remember if it blinked red or green, but i think it def blinked different colors) but it appeared out of nowhere, hovered extremely low for it to be a plane, and stayed in one place. He and I looked at each other in disbelief of what we were seeing, and in just the time of a glance- it was no where to be seen. We both knew what we saw wasn't anything that could be explained. My uncle also claimed to see a similar light that suddenly disappeared at the end of the same street. Of course everyone made light of the matter, so we dropped it and never talked about it again. So naturally, this time I was going to get what I was seeing on camera so I could prove what i was saying. And another strange thing is I got that same weird feeling I had gotten years earlier. So I start to record it and realize it would be difficult to show what I was seeing from the side of the road I was on. So I go to turn around immediately and before I could get turned- they were gone! There was 1 that was faint but it was gone shortly thereafter. I was shaking and done so for i know an hour after I got home. I posted the videos in hopes of someone giving me an explanation so i could calm down, but I looked up every suggestion mentioned and none of them looked like what I saw. I didn't even realize i had gotten a video of the moment multiple other balls of light lit up out of no where and disappeared just as suddenly!!

Looking West 75 41 23 44 An extremely long perfect line of lights. Very slowly moving, constant white. moving north.

I was connecting the battery to my grandson's gator when I looked up and saw what I first thought to be an incoming meteor. After realizing it wasn't typical I ran inside and grabbed my camera. I tried to get a video but only got a very poor photograph. The lights were only one color, white, they moved in a very perfect line on a North / East direction. At my location I see and hear the fighter jets from Patuxent three times a day, this there was no noise. I could not get an accurate count as there were so many, the slow speed is what really surprised me and that it didn't break up like one would expect from a meteor. I have no idea what I just saw! It did not seem to be a trail but a long "stick" of lights.

30+ bright objects overhead in early morning hour (5:30 AM) moving NW to SE. Lead 3 in a triangle pattern followed by 30 evenly spaced in a consistent line all moving in the same direction (NW to SE). Objects were lit but no blinking lights. Certainly the number of objects caught my attention. I was walking my dog and star gazing like every morning for the last 25+ years.

On Saturday 12/9/17 around 845 pm myself and family were outside and saw flashing red lights in a single line formation around a mile apart, traveling from the west towards the east then cut south. It seemed like the objects appeared out of nowhere, one light after another after another until around at least 20 objects were seen. The duration of the sighting was between 8-10 minutes, meanwhile neighborhood dogs were barking loudly. Also noise in background is a train because I live close to railroad track.

Below is a link on youtube showing the video I took.

My daughter and I were driving to the beach. The time of day was around sunset, but the sky was still bright as day. In the distance we both saw a bright light cross the sky horizontally then disappear. To me, it looked like a sideways falling star, but brighter. It was so bright and you cannot see stars in the daylight. It disappeared into thin air.

Luckily, we both saw it, so I know I didn't imagine it.

It was an alien project level 1 federal ran on me.

I sent in a paper earlier that had good detail of the cold truth. I don’t want to get in too much trouble though since some of this is top secret. It’s been since 2017 I been talking to them. I only have my word and a bunch of files in detail.

line of 4 red lights, spaced about 1 mile front front to end, front had whitish light steady, 3rd light in line was also whitish, all were in a flat-line formation with no variance in altitude. no engine sound (as would be from a set of planes). living close to Dover, I know what I would see with multiple planes flying in an elongated formation, this isn't what that was.

Two red orange lights moving than disappearing after at least 5 mins.

We saw two red orange lights in the sky in font of us as we were driving. I thought them to be planets, as I immediately told my wife.

We drove approximately 1-2 miles watching these lights , and after only driving 1-2 miles we had gained on the two objects as they were now nearly directly beside the car. We pulled over to listen to see if they were helicopters. No sound that we could note. The lights we now noticed moving ahead and way from us.

As we were driving west we noticed them moving east, but when we stopped we could tell they were indeed moving northwest, and the only reason they appeared to be moving east is because we were traveling 50 mph and gaining on them, as they must not have been far away.

When we stopped, we watched them for a couple more minutes as they seemed to get smaller/ dimmer. I believe the were gaining altitude. Then one flickered a little and went out. A few second later my life noticed the other do the same and they were gone.

Two small white lights moving erratically in the night sky.

When my family was driving in the car late at night, as we neared our house, I saw a light in the sky. I thought it was an airplane at first, since my house is near an airport, but it didn’t have the pattern of an airplane’s lights, and it wasn’t moving like an airplane. I spotted a second light a few seconds later as I was studying the first one. My younger sister claimed to see the lights as well.

The two lights were white and small, much like stars, and they were bobbing along in the sky, moving back and forth and up and down in an erratic fashion. Eventually they disappeared into the clouds, and I saw the light patterns of an airplane following in their direction.

Laurel, Montana.

Driving home from school one day, I saw an odd craft flying stunningly low. It was just above the tree line. I turned off the radio so I could hear it, but no sound was coming from it. It was black and triangular, and had a bit of orange on it.

Flying from the east, going west. It was flying slower than physically possible, I dont know how it stayed in the air. It couldnt have been going more than 30 mph, yet stayed airborne.

It was daytime so I saw it very well, was about 50 ft in length, and only about 100 yards away from me.

It disappeared behind the treeline, and shortly afterward 2 helicopters followed, also flying low but not quite as low as the craft.

I want to know what it was because it was weird and awesome.

As I was driving south on 16th Ave., I spotted a slowly falling red glowing sphere to my left. A trail of smoke was following the sphere.

I watched as the sphere descended and then landed somewhere in a ditch on the side of the road. When it made contact with the land in the ditch, lots of smoke was all around it.

Whatever it was, it was small enough that I could not see it once it went into the ditch.

I did not drive back to inspect it further.

Object south of Laurel, Numerous lights. 6-21-2014

I was fishing with my sons south of Laurel ,across the bridge. Time was 1:15am.

My son said, "What is that, What is that."

I looked up and spotted this object, had numerous lights. You could see the shape of it, but you could also almost see through it at the same time.

There was slight cloud cover, and it was below the clouds, I'm guessing maybe 2500-3500 feet above the ground. I'm gonna say it was roughly the size of a City Block. The Thing was huge, and silent.

It headed to the east towards Billings. We decided to leave and went to our vehicle about 5 minutes after spotting it.

There was a Laurel city cop, pulling out of Riverside park, as we were approaching our vehicle. But not sure if he seen it or not.

The lights would come up in groups of 2 or 3 go into the sky and then vanish.

Craft sighted moving at high speeds above the tree line

I was approximately 10 miles south of Laurel Mississippi heading southbound towards Hattiesburg, to go home from work at 6:10 pm. To the East I noticed about 20-50 feet above a tree line, perhaps 2-5 miles away there was a white disc travelling at a high speed across the treeline (tall elder pines about 90-140 feet high approximately). It took approximately 1.5 seconds for the disc to travel across the span of my driver side window where I ceased to be able to follow it.

The most frightening aspect is about 20 seconds before the sighting I started to get images and thoughts of extra terrestrials in my head and cycling through thoughts about 'what is out there' as I often research at home.

I turned my music down to clear my head and something inspired me to look East. When I did it was within 2 seconds that the craft appeared. I often research extra terrestrial beings and craft in my free time as well as falsified research on moon landings and NASA space programs but have never witnessed anything myself.

I have never had any ESP or signs of the like but this particular moment has definitely left me puzzled. It is almost as if I knew the craft was there before I looked.

A red glowing object moving in and out of clouds that had a red yellow and green color when not in the direct path of the sun

I saw a red glowing object in the western sky at about 17:00 hours on 8/30/2012 It appered to reflect sunlight from it. It moved slowly across the sky starting and stopping , moving in and out of the clouds> I had to move from one side of my house to the other to get pictures of it. I could not tell the shape of it because of the red reflection from it. I wondered how it was reflecting with the sun in front of my and not coming from my back . At one point it moved very fast to the left and was out of the sunlight above a tree. I didnt see the red glow this time. Then it moved back into the sunlight path and had a large red haze around it . It moved into the clouds , then out the other side of them still a red glow around it. The last picture i took it went slowly up out of a cloud and then straight up and dissapeared i have no idea what is was but i have never seen anything like it.

Red lights over Laurel Montana

On March 10, 2011, at 0:15, I had arrived home from work. I put a leash on my dog’s collar so he could relieve himself on the tree in the back yard. I heard a bang and my dog got creeped out and jumped. I tried to console him and he (my dog) was looking up to the sky, I could not believe what I had seen. This object was hovering above the trees and houses. This object was in a triangle formation with about seven reddish/orange lights. These lights were not probing and this object was not making a noise. This object looked as if it was in a vee formation much like what ducks looks like when they flock together. It hovered over the treetops for close to a minute then moved east, slowly. It was a clear night and oddly quiet all around me.

Lights captured on wild game camera.

These pictures were taken with a digital wild game motion camera. This object was captured four seperate times. Two on 10/19/08 at 11:09pm and at 11:12pm. The other two pictures were captured on 10/26/08 in a different part of the woods. In these pictures it looks like a beam of light but if you look closely it is the object in motion and there was no wild game in these pictures so these objects in motion triggered the camera to take the picures.




NUFORC Note:

Critter cam photos show deer in frame. Possible reflection from a nearby insect, or some other small object. Probably not a genuine UFO. PD

On my way home from work in Billings, Montana, I observed a huge, firey thing hanging in the sky North of Laurel, Montana where I live. I watched this thing the whole way home. I am convinced it wasn't a plane, a cell phone tower, the moon, or anything else. We got back in the truck at approx. 7:45pm (Mountain Time) to go look for it again and it was gone.

Heard sounds of humming over the trees for one hour early morning. Saw lights above the trees moving and flashing beams on the ground

I was awaken by a loud but low humming noise. I thought there were people mowing their lawn so early in the morning. The window in our room was open because it was particularly hot. That was why I heard the sound outside. I am a light sleeper and I can be awakened by any sound that is unfamiliar to my ears. I tried to sleep through the sound, again still thinking that someone was mowing the lawn. But the sound went from soft to loud, like it was moving far and near. I still could not get back to sleep and was already intrigued by the unfamiliarity of the sound. I decided to check it out. I looked out the window and I saw in the sky just above the trees bright ligts, white, blue and yellow, moving very slowly horizontally. That was the one that was making the humming or whirling sound.

I woke my husband up because I thought I just saw a UFO. He also saw the lights but he dismissed it as just a helicopter hovering. And went right back to sleep. I observed it for some more minutes because I could not believe that it was only a helicopter. I know how a helicopter sounds like. But this one was really different. It hovered close to our building and I thought I saw a light beaming from it down the ground, like a huge flashlight looking for something. If it was a police helicopter then where are the police cars? Nothing was happening in the area, no movement of people or cars. It was just peaceful except this hovering, humming sound getting louder and softer every minute.

BEAUTIFUL YELLOW-GREEN-BLUE FIRE BALL WITH ORANGE TO RED TAIL APPROACHING ALMOST PERPENDICULAR TO EARTH WITH MAYBE A 15 TO 30 DEGREE ANGLE VARIANCE?? AS I WAS TRAVELING NORTH, IT WAS IN THE W.S.W. SKIES. IT WAS LARGER THAT USUAL FOR A METEOR.

THE FIREBALL WAS 1/3 TO 1/2 SIZE OF THE MOON, BUT WITH THE TAIL, IT WAS LARGER.

THE SIZE MADE THIS UNUSUAL. ALSO THE BRILLIANCE AND THE LENGTH OF TIME IT WAS VISABLE IT WAS AMAZING!!I WAS SO AWE STRUCK, I COULD ONLY LOOK. IT WAS APPROX 23:45. 11/30/04 IT WAS NOT STREAKING AS ONE WOULD IMAGINE A METEOR TO BE BUT GOING SLOWER THAN I HAVE SEEN THEM.

An irregular flight pattern zig zagging then back and forth and up and down with a light as bright as a star

I was up at 4 am drawing the jupiter/venus alignment, everytime a plane or satillite would go across the sky it catches my eye.each time these crafts have a flight pattern that goes in a arc.then i saw a flash of light which caught my attention. this light jumped irradically from what seems to me from constellation to constellation. a very irradical pattern zig zag then back and forth and up and down again but courisly enough still in a arc it must have lasted 20 seconds or so then gone again, very strange but acceptable. this to me only gives more credit to God just like an author or artist can creat different books or works of art God can create different worlds.

Undulating object seen over Laurel Mississippi on 3/28/04 at 2:30pm

At 2:30 today my wife and I were outside allowing our puppy some time to play and do her business. We were sitting in lawn chairs when I looked up and saw a dark brownish-red object directly overhead. The object looked like a tube with each end rounded like a ball. It was undulating and twisting around slowly. After I determined it wasn't a bird or any other known object I ran into the house to get my camcorder. My wife, who wears glasses was unable to see the object mostly because she couldn't find it in the sky. It was moving in and out of the clouds.

After I finally found my camcorder case inside I brought it outside and took out the camera, attached the battery and inserted a tape. All of which took some moments. By this time the object had moved off and was further away.

When I first saw the object it was directly overhead and moving in a north - northeast direction. Now that I had the camera I moved across the yard to a spot where I could shoot through the trees at where I figured it would be by now. In a moment I found it and shot the attached video.

The object was still moving to the north - northeast while clouds were moving slowly to the north. Today was a partly sunny day with rainclouds moving into the area from the south.

My video camera has an onboard automatic focus and it kept trying to focus on infinity during the shoot, thus the image is sometimes out of focus. At one point I pointed the camera down to the top of some trees to force it to focus. As the object moves thru the trees it appears to remain focused. It then dissappeared into the cloud bank. My Hi-8mm camera has a 22x zoom which I had it zoomed full. The video is shakey because of this extreme zoom.

I have a higher resolution version of this file as well as the 8mm tape.

PLEASE IF ANYONE SAW THIS PLEASE CONTACT MR DAVENPORT!!!! The time was 9:30 PM in Laurel Md. There is a lot of air traffic here, so you get used to lights in the sky. But this was different. Dull red/white light, so hard to see you almost have to look to the right or left of it to see the light. Sometimes brighter, then duller. It took a good 5 minutes to go halfway across the sky, really slow for any plane or satellite. I actually went back inside the house for 30 seconds, came back out and it was still slowly going from east to west. This is where it gets really scary. Hear this. A jet from BWI is heading in the same direction as this object. I thought to myself, could be a collision. Same direction, mind you. As the jet gets within about 1/2 mile overtaking the object, it suddenly gets slightly brighter, then\ blinks out. Just like that. As if someone turned the light out. I kept watching. the jet went directly past where the light would have been. I stayed outside for a good 15 more minutes to see if I could see the light. Nothing. Did anyone else see this? Did BWI know about this?? What is going on in this area??????

I'm not sure exaclty what time it was, I just remember that it was in between 1AM and 2AM. The object flashed between blue and white. I saw it moving in one direction, and then it stopped and moved in the exact opposite direction, then did a small circular motion, and came to a complete stop. It was not close enough to make out any detail.

Bright light suddenly shrinking to small and going out.

I had stepped outside to get some fresh air and noticed in the northern sky at a 45 degree angle a bright white light. The light was steady and I thought as usual it was a plane from Balt-Wash Int. Airport. So as I was going inside the house I looked again and the light had not moved in 15 seconds. As I watched in amazement, the light suddenly became smaller and smaller, and suddenly as if a light switch was pulled, went out completely. What kind of scares me is that someone else sent in a sighting to you 1 year and 1 day ago, and the address is right down the street from here on Crumpton South in Laurel, Md. I kept looking and looking but nothing ever happened after that.



NUFORC Note:

This sighting seems reminiscent to us of a sighting of a bright satellite. As a satellite enters the Earth's shadow, it slowly fades from sight in a few seconds, just as this witness describes. Just a guess, since we did not see the object. PD

I saw a orange/red glowing object that stopped glowing and then moved, at a very high rate of speed, out into space at about a 20-30 degree angle.

I was walking my dog past the Maryland City Elementary school down the street from my house at approx. 6am. As we were passing the school heading down Crumpton South, I noticed what appeared to be a planet sized orange/red object in the sky. It was at about 40 degrees above the horizon (facing south/southwest). At first I thought it was mars or mercury, but it seemed to big to be a planet (appeared a little bigger than I have seen Venus). I kept walking while watching the object. It appeared to become slightly bigger, so I stopped before I reached a group of trees that would block my view so I could see if it was moving like an airplane with its lights on. It wasn't, so I started walking again and thinking about what it could be. When I got past the trees to where I could see it again, it had changed from an orange/red glow to a single white light(much smaller), like you would see on a plane. It blinked once, maybe twice, then moved in a quickly accelerating motion at approx 20 degrees up and to my left, out into the atmosphere. At it's fastest rate, it looked just a little slower than a shooting star. I was looking south/slightly southwest the entire time. It was still very dark, enough so to still be able to see all the stars in the sky. I was going to call the local airports to see if they noticed anything unusual on their radars at that time, but didn't think I could get through to the controllers, or whether they would give me the information if I could get through. If you can get that type of information, I would appreciate you letting me know what they picked up on their equipment. Thanks.

Caller was entering Highway I-95 (southbound) in Laurel, Maryland, when he noticed two round objects sitting still in the sky. At first, he thought they were the type of colored spheres mounted on telephone lines to make the lines visible to pilots. His impression was that the objects were perhaps 1 or 2 miles from him, and perhaps 1/4 mile above ground level, and maybe 200 yards from one another.

(He saw a commercial jet in the distance, apparently leaving Baltimore airport or Andrews AFB, so he had something to compare with the objects he was observing.)

The color of the objects was that of pencil lead, perhaps with a bit of copper-colored tinge to them. They were generally round, but they were slightly out of round at the equator.

The object just moved out of sight rapidly, in approximately one second! They just STREAKED.

Caller called Laurel, MD, police, but they said it was a matter for Arundel Co. sheriff's office. Sheriff's office said it was a matter for the state police. Then he called Andrews AFB, and they said they had nothing

1963 sighting of beautiful objects in southeast Mississippi , worth reading

These objects were seen on a beautiful crystal clear night (with no moon as I recall it). A friend of mine and our dates were "parked" in the country side just to the southeast of our home town in southeast Mississippi. We were facing roughly northeast. I happened to be looking at the horizon when the first object ascended into view. It was followed by two additional objects of the same apparent shape, size, and color. They appeared dark red when I first saw them, much as the moon does as it first starts to rise. They were in a lazy J formation and flew from northeast to southwest with their closet point at about 2 oclock . As they ascended up from the horizon their color brightened. At their closet point they appeared oval in shape. The outside rim of each object was the purest gold color you can imagine. Think of a simple gold wedding band lit from within. They were gradually brighter toward the center, with the very center being their brightest point. The center was bright white. twinkling like a very large and bright star. They appeared to be three seperate objects. They would black out stars as they flew, and you could see stars between them at the same time. They were silent. I heard no sound. One of the most interesting aspects of this experience was what you felt as you looked at these objects. A feeling of peace and serenity . Strange as it may sound, there was a level of awareness as you looked at the objects. Mutual awareness. Another outstanding charecteristic was the light they emmitted. It was intense but had no glare. It was like you were looking through polorized glasses. It is hard to judge size. If I had to guess i would say that they were at least 50 to 100 feet in diameter. They appeared to be about 80% the size of the full moon in the night sky. As they passed 2:00 oclcck they object that formed the bottom tip of the J suddenly changed directions and flew to the west. They all flew out of sight on those same directions.

Duration: 8 minutes
No of observers: 4

Location: Laurel, MS, USA

Shape: Disk
Characteristics: Missing Time

In the spring of 1963 I had just turned fifteen years old and had gotten my driver's liscense.

A friend of mine and I had a double date with two young ladies we had been dating for a while.

We were in my dad's car. We picked up our dates at approximately 7:00 PM. After getting a burger we proceeded to a "parking spot" in the edge of the country that I had recently found.

As I pulled into the area I turned the car to the right, and I stopped the car with the nose pointing basically northeast. I was looking out through the front windshield when I noticed what appeared to be the full moon rising. I had a telescope as a kid and kept up with the phases of the moon and knew there was no full moon at that time. As I recall there was no moon in view at all. However, the first object I saw had the appearance of a full moon in color and close in size as well as it rose above the horizon.

As it rose into the sky it changed in color from a deep reddish gold to white much as the moon does. As I watched, a second object the same size and color rose from the same place and went through the the same appearance changes as the first. Then a third obect appearing identicle to the first two rose into the sky.

They were in what I call a "reverse lazy L" with the third object being slightly left of the first two and below horizontal to the second looking something like this in the sky: (^) (^) (^) They were moving almost directly toward me. It was a perfectly clear night as I recall it. They were identicle in appearance as far as I could tell. They were very striking in the sky. I excused myself from the car and my date and walked about twenty yards from the car in the dark. The objects were now well up into the sky at about 45 degrees above the horizon. I am not a good judge of altitude at night, but I will guess they were somewhere around 2000-2500 feet. They were "Piper Cub" slow, and taking a guess they seemed to be flying somewhere around 70 mph in formation perfectly together.

At that point I called out to my friend to join me. To give you an idea of how striking they appeared, when my friend got about half way to me our dates saw them and completely panicked. They were screaming and crying for us to take them home. I asked my date to calm down, that this would only take a few minutes, and we would go. She seemed ok with that. However, from time to time the screaming would break out again.

At one point I remember one of them asking, "what's that", and the other said it's a dog. Then quite...

AS my friend and I watched, the craft continued on their course from NE to SW. They were perfectly silent.

I could see stars disappear and reappear behind them as they flew. They were three seperate objects.

There were no other aircraft that I could see or hear. I was fifteen years old, had 20/20 plus vision, and according to the USAF in 1969 had much better than average hearing.

Their appearance : They appeared to be about 2/3rds the size of a big full moon in the sky. They were perfectly circular looking at them from beneath, and I did not notice any feature I could call the top. Imagine a man's plain gold wedding band, a little broader band than the ladies'version, an ovaled edge and charged with the most beautiful color gold you can imagine. And I mean "charged" with what I will call an almost nuclear appearance, resembling a very bright aurora. That would be the outside edge of these craft. They were lit from edge to edge with the area just inside the edge (which was white) appearing to have less light than anywhere else but yet bright.

They were gradually brighter looking toward the center. Then in the center was something that looked like Jupiter on a bright night that was slowly undulating and twinkling.

As the first two came to almost overhead the light of the third object appeared to fluctuate from side to side and it had changed direction flying to the northwest. They flew away on those courses until they were out of sight.

I felt no threat from these craft. in fact I remember a feeling of tranquility as I watched them. At one point I had a feeling of mutual awareness.

When we walked quickly back to the car, the girls were very upset with us. One shouted, "Look what time it is!" Indeed it was almost 10:00 PM, and I was late getting my date home which in those days was serious business. I remembered hearing one of them shout, "What is that" and the other saying, "It's a dog". So I asked about it, but they said that it had not happened which seemed odd to me. My girl stayed upset with me for a couple of weeks.

The following Monday at school (9th grade) I came out of a class and saw a couple of friends. I was telling them the story when suddenly a young man came up to the group that had assembled and loudly announced that he and his dad had also seen them and that they were not "flying saucers" and that we were not supposed to be talking about it. All the group flushed in different directions. I never knew who the kid or his dad were. To be fair there is an airport in the direction the first two flew away toward. There is also a Naval Air Station about 65-70 miles away in the direction they came from in Meridian, MS. I also have seen large black, unmarked, dual rotor helicopters that come from the NAS flying that approximate course from time to time up to the present.

I entered the USAF in 1969.I was stationed at a SAC base in Orlando, FL. I have serviced many air craft from B52's , KC135s, C130s, many fighter air craft, and including U2's that were top secret at that time. I have seen about every running light and approach and landing light that existed at that time. I serviced Air Force 2 twice.

However, I have never seen anything like what I saw that Spring night here at home.

I believe it was about 8:00 PM when I first saw "the moon" rising, while I knew it was not the moon. I watched the craft for I think eight to ten minutes. When I got back in the car it was almost 10:00 PM. I do not know where the time went.

What I can tell you is that my friend would never talk about it all. The last time I talked to him before he passed I asked him again what he thought about it all. He said, "lights", and he changed the topic. I have lost contact with the girls.

They are probably still angry with me, lol.
