Sphere flew close to the airplane i was on

As we started our descent into Atlanta airport, I was looking out my window (I had a window seat on this Delta flight from Las Vegas) and about 20-40ft below me, I saw a perfectly spherical object, metalic in colour, almost reflective, possibly 3-5 ft wide, moving the opposite direction to the plane, but inline with it. My guess at our altitude was between10-15 thousand ft. I watched it for 5 seconds or so until it left my eyeline. It was a clear day.

Observed a strange thing in the sky initially thought it was a star until it started darting around after we heard loud booms outside

My family went outside to investigate after hearing large booms outside and I noticed a huge looking “star” but it was omitting red and blue light and was darting around in a small circle, I got binoculars and observed it closer and it had circling red blue and yellow lights, 3 tiers of lights that just kept circling around. We sat and watched it for at least 15 minutes and then noticed there were 2 others around it

Golden orb moving at relatively high altitude and high speed to the west

This was one of those cool dry afternoons when you see lots of contrails from jet airplanes. I was out walking my dog and noticed 7 separate contrails. It was very clear and I could see the aircrafts. Also at high altitude and moving quickly from east to west was an orb. The orb did not leave a contrail but appeared to be metallic. It was too small and far away to see any detail and was visually about the size of a bb held at arms length but impossible to tell actual size and altitude. It went into a small cloud and did not reappear.

I am a retired professional man, age 73.

Explanation: Drone - Possible


It was about 40 ft long and silently hovered then flew off at high speed.

That was the first one I saw and it was silent and no flashing lights. I could see it because it appeared to have dim lighting around the exterior of the craft. Since then I have seen many. Some appear to be similar crafts but have flashing lights and appear to be planes. They turn on right angles and appear almost nightly. Last night there were ten hovering but maybe we're well lit drones.

Bluish white BOL/orb traveling downward from the sky, momentarily hovered/traveled horizontally before rapidly descending

I was headed down the Georgia State 400 freeway south. As the freeway curved right, as you are approaching I-85 conjunction my attention was drawn to the sky above me and slightly to my left. There was an extremely bright blueish white ball of light that was descending rapidly with a slight arc before momentarily slowing and traveling horizontally. BOL then shot down at an angle at an extremely high rate of speed. Sighting lasted only 6-7 seconds. 8 seconds at most. BOL of light never flickered or blinked. It never appeared to change its color. There was only one moment when it appeared to change in size and that is when it traveled horizontally, it got slightly smaller. Otherwise it was eerily consistent and very bright. It reminded me of the 65,000k “daylight” Compact fluorescent light bulb’s color. The weather report says mostly clear sky’s, but at the time I remember thinking that I was seeing it in front of heavy overcast clouds as I could not see any stars or the moon in the sky behind the BOL. This could be due to the city lights.

While taking photos on the Beltline of a retired rocket-shaped lookout tower, a tad-pole shaped craft appeared in the sky.

I went for an evening walk in the Southside Beltline Trail in Atlanta. There is a defunct rocket-shaped lookout tower that I wanted to capture in photo and send to a friend with the caption “If SHTF you know where to find me….” I took a total of 6 frames of the skyline at 6:05pm. I noticed a shadow in the sky for a second while shooting. But the sun was bright, and with the glare, I could not see a distinct shape. When I returned home, I went through the photos from the trail and saw that I captured the shadow in one of the six frames which I have included along with a zoomed in photo. This is not my first encounter with such anomalies. However, it is the first time I have a photo of the shape or craft.

I was taking pictures of the sunset from the wing of the plane and saw two objects, one pear or egg-shaped and one cylindrical

I was a passenger on Delta flight 1658 from Atlanta on May 16, 2024. I was taking pictures of the sunset from my seat, 25F, by the wing of the plane. Upon the aircraft banking left, I saw two objects below the moon. I saw one cylindrical, white object and one egg-shaped metallic object hovering an unknown distance from the plane. I took a series of pictures during the event. The metallic object disappeared from sight suddenly, but the cylinder maintained its position until i couldn’t see it as the plane completed its turn.

Characteristics: Emitted beams, Changed Colo

Multiple blue, orange, red, purple, flashing beams occurred on the north -north east skyline of Atlanta.

First sight occurred north of Atlanta, towards Dunwoody. It was a bright blue flash, almost as if something had exploded. Then multiple of flashes, varying in colors from Blue, Orange, Purple, Red, were caught towards the north east skyline. Some flashes were bigger than others. These flashes were seen in the skyline above the tree line. As if the flashes emanated from the ground going up into the sky project bright lights. Some flashes occurred purely in the sky, but most seemed to stem from the ground up. This was all captured from the 19th floor of my high rise apartment building. I turned off all lights in my apartment to better view the sky. In the background you can see a few buildings, but mostly tree lines. In the span of 15 minutes, I would say there was about 20 of these bright flashes of light. The size of the flashes varied, from upside down triangle shapes, to spherical shapes, to cylinder type shapes. I have more videos but was only able to upload 4.

From my balcony at vireo apt, I could see a disk shaped gray thing on one of the cell tower looking things to the SE.

Between 4:45 and 6pm. From my balcony at vireo apt, I could see a disk shaped gray thing on one of the cell tower looking things (there are two red/white ones, and one gray one) to the SE.

At first it didn’t move. Then when I looked again it seemed to of shifted to the left slightly. Both times it looked like a spacecraft but like it was attached to the cell tower so I thought it was part of it/I hadn’t noticed it before. When I looked again a little while later, it was gone!

Maybe it’s nothing but it was so oddly shaped that I wanted to report it to see if anyone else saw it

We saw five glowing spheres like in a stright line. Very bright lights pointed my direction almost like a very bright head light

I was flying my drone and it kept losing connection which I’ve never had that issue before. It kept “loading” connection and my phone screen would go dark. I was flying a dji mini 1. I kept getting a message saying aircraft interference. There were no aircraft in the area.

I put my drone away and I can’t remember how long after my friend said, “shit what the hell are those lights”. I looked up. And saw 5 lights in a row and then a second later only 2. I walked to make sure I can see them longer with line of sight and trees and houses around us. The two bright lights were now black spheres that were burly to see. I know this because I see aircraft fly over all the time to the way to Fulton industrial airport. I couldn’t focus my eyes on the two objects but could focus my eyes on the commercial airline that was probably 30,000 feet up. These objects were close enough to be able to see the detail if they were not blurry. There was no wings no rotor no exhaust just two black objects flying next to one another. I walked down the road to make sure I could see them in more of clearing and they were gone.

Atlanta-Hartsfield (ATL) Sighting Report
Narrative of Events During Takeoff

2215 Hours: After a 15 minute gate hold, the aircraft, a Boeing 767-300ER with 226 souls and 2 laps on board, is pushed back from the terminal. Ground Control clears the aircraft to the active taxiway.

2245 Hours: Idle fourth in line, after 30 minutes aircraft cleared to taxi onto RWY 26 Left where we are instructed to hold. ATL Tower reports clear skies, visibility 10 miles or better, altimeter 29.92, winds calm.

2248 Hours: Cleared for takeoff, ATL Tower instructs us to climb heading 275 degrees to intercept course 288 degrees to Snufy. Flight course put us just west of East Point and south of state route 166, where we expect to be cleared to 15,000 feet, and from there to flight level 240 (24,000 feet).

2252 Hours: Outbound from ATL, Departure clears us to flight level 240. First Quarter Moon visible in the clear night sky, having risen high on the eastern horizon at sunset.

2300 Hours: Climbing through 15,000 feet, First Officer points over the instrument panel towards a sizable burst of white light, 12 o’clock off the aircraft nose, approximately 5 miles distant.

2301 Hours: My initial impression is that the burst represents some kind of missile denotation, and, as a result, I throttle the engines back so as not to ingest possible debris from the blast.

2302 Hours: First Officer reports the sighting to ATL Departure and requests a vector change further to the west. A mild buffet to the aircraft, accompanied by an audible drop in engine RPM. Cabin lights flicker for a moment or two, although the annunciator panel remains illuminated.

2303 Hours: Departure vectors us further west, which puts us outside the burst radius, and reports commercial traffic descending inbound as we resume our climb to flight level 240. Traffic, an Airbus heading for ATL, comes up on VHF Guard Frequency.

2310 Hours: After speculation by both flight crews as to the origin of the burst, resembling a nebulous ball of light, First Officer and myself concurred over the VHF frequency that the object appeared stationary, of significant size, perhaps 700 feet in diameter, and remained to the east, having fallen behind our present position as we continued to climb. It was, as I pointed out, “still out there," and appeared as bright as the moon, “...sort of a fuzzy silver ball.”

2315 Hours: Having been cleared to flight level 360, our cruising altitude, we continued to vector toward the northwest, en route to Chicago. It should be noted that ATL Departure showed no additional traffic, other than the inbound Airbus, and the remainder of the flight passed without incident

UAP spotted over Atlanta from 37000 feet

Preface: I am an Airline Pilot with 30 years of flying experience. I currently fly for a Pt. 121 major airline.

At approx 0052Z on February I observed unexplained phenomenon at my 2 o'clock at what appeared to be near my altitude or above. I am not sure of the distance. At first I thought it to be a reflection in my windscreen, but after moving my head around and point of view, the object stayed steady. The object appeared rectangular or oblong and milky white. My first officer returned from the forward lav and observed the object moving briskly southbound. After I asked him "what is that", the object moved at rapid,steady speed southbound and disappeared. I snapped a picture to verify the object at 0054. I regret not taking a video, but was taken and confused by what I was seeing. A few minutes later, ATL center asked if anyone had seen the light or object because there was a lot of chatter on guard frequency (121.5). I informed them I had and got a phone number to an ATL controller and shared the picture later after the flight. Another Frontier flight captained by a colleague also witnessed the UAP, along with numerous other aircraft on guard. I have never witnessed anything like it in almost 30 years of flying. The object appeared to be over Atlanta and we were at FL370.

There were many other flight crews that witnessed the UAP. I had a text dialogue after the flight with an 18 year air traffic controller. He said his supervisor was filling out UAP paperwork and that he had never heard or seen anything like this. I have filed a NASA aviation report as well.

I stepped outside and saw a single light approaching. I thought at first it was the ISS but as it got closer I saw it wasn't. It was shaped like a plane and it was totally silent. It had a light in the center of it. I watched it a few minutes and then it vanished from view. I also saw the object again the next night or so. There has also been low-flying, large aircraft and increased helicopter activity in the area since my sighting.

3 very bright red light objects (circular) that came from the southern (downtown Atlanta) horizon and slowly rose above and over the sk

We went outside to see fireworks for the midnight time as it was new years 2022. Exactly at midnight (a couple seconds after maybe), 2 very bright equal in size/symmetrical red light objects (circular) came from the southern (downtown Atlanta) horizon and slowly rose above and over the sky and behind my house. The objects were then seen again after passing behind the house and at which point started accelerating very fast in the same direction as it had been traveling. Altitude always stayed steady throughout the process. Shortly after this, another one was spotted - again same direction, etc identical to the prior objects (even in the direction and speed etc and light intensity) over the southern horizon. This object is the one that is video taped as noted in the evidence. However, unlike the first 2 objects (could be seen after going behind the house), this 3rd one "disappeared" after going behind the house.

Odd, when magnified , there’s nothing in the sky leaving a trail of white smoke. Nothing at all.

Saw at least 8 circular craft that looked like might have been in a formation moving across the sky above our location.

We were at a Chris Stapleton concert when I looked up in the sky and saw a formation of circular aircraft flying over. They weren’t going fast but some of them did seem to speed up and slow down along with traveling counter to the direction of the bulk of the craft. They appeared silver in color.
There is one that reminded me of one of the alien craft portrayed in the original Star Trek series. It seemed to have many lights on it that kept flashing.
At times it looked as if one or two of the craft might have let loose another craft.

This area is near the Atlanta Airport so there were planes in the air but not near these objects.

I thought I was recording the whole incident but when I look down at my phone it wasn’t filming I missed everything. I happen to look back up I saw another black object heading west and this time I got the footage.

Red lights moving in sky In my direction, slow down rapidly then stop.

I was talking on the phone with a friend, using a Bluetooth headset. I decided to walk out on the balcony of my 17th floor condo to finish the conversation. While talking, I noticed that there were a few bright stars or planets in the western sky. As I was looking at them, 2 red side by side lights to the left of the stars caught my attention, flying in my direction, west to east. I thought it was a plane, but I rarely see planes come from that direction so it was a little unusual. I didn’t think much about it and continued my phone call.

At this point something unusual happene. The two lights began to slow down rapidly and came to a stop. They stopped just before they would have flown over my building and out of my view (the building I live in has 46 floors). I thought maybe it was a drone but it seemed kind of high in the sky and I did hear any sound coming from it.

The person I was talking to said I said “WTF is that?” I told him what I was seeing and he told me to take a picture of it. I remembered I was on Bluetooth and my phone was on the kitchen counter. I rushed inside, got my phone, came back outside to take the pictures. When I looked up to find the reds lights, there was now only one small red light visible, still stopped in the sky. I took 4 pictures of the sky where the light was, brought the phone down to switch to video but when I looked back up the light was gone. So I took a picture of the western sky where the bright stars or planet were.

My friend on the phone was listening to my commentary while this was going on and said I sounded like one of those people on those UFO shows while it was happening. We laughed if off, I couldn’t explain what I saw so I decided to drop it. About and hour later I decided to look at the photos I took. I realized then that I captured the red light in the photos. I zoomed in to get a better look at the red light and took screenshots of the object in the photos. I don’t know what it was and didn’t want to jump to conclusions.

I will email the photos.

An entity that mimicked the star Sirius, transformed shape, then followed/stalked us

I have had an incredibly scary experience with what I believe was the “rainbow star” or Sirius. I am not incredibly familiar with astronomy, however, I have been witnessing this same “star” in the same place every night and it flashes rainbow colors, is extra bright (compared to other stars), and appears way closer than other stars. I literally wanted to send this story of my experience to you for a while now, but it’s hard to even explain and I’m sure hard to believe.

Here it goes as it happened...

(Sorry for the extra details. I know this will be long, but please stick with it if you can) Background: I was in a transitional period (moving, finances, etc) and I had to stay temporarily at a friend’s condo from November to early January. Anyway, my friend only has 2 assigned parking spots. My friend parks in the closest to their unit (3rd floor) and I have to use the other assigned space on the rooftop floor (floor 6).

For the weeks that we were staying there (myself and my 16 year old son), we took note of the “rainbow star” (which we have seen before, however, it is always in the exact same location in direct view from where we park on the rooftop of this condo building). Several times we’ve noted it and talked about how crazy it is that you can see it strobing so many colors. Well, time after time, we keep witnessing it (on clear nights only - seldom in Atlanta with the spraying, but still plenty of nights). So, beings that we didn’t feel comfortable where we were staying (roommate type situation), we would often come home, park, and have personal conversations in the car where we park. After plenty of times doing this, we started to notice that this “star” has a pattern to it. We would notice it there, stationary, then after about 20 some minutes it would move to the left (our left, its right) and then completely vanish only to reappear in the exact same spot approximately 20 minutes l! ater. Other times it would completely dim out (not move at all) and then reappear 20 minutes later. So nonetheless, that completely tripped us out once we saw the pattern and started timing it. Now, fast forward to the last day we spent there....

It was January 1st, 2020 (technically, it was New Years Eve but I had picked my son up and took him home right before midnight). I was upset with him for parent-type stuff (lol) and we drove up to our assigned spot, parked the car, and I was giving him a lecture. We were probably up there for about an hour and a half when he suddenly interrupted and pointed out the “rainbow star”. It was moving again but this time it was slightly moving up and down, left to right, vise-versa, etc. Almost completely unnoticeable unless you were really watching it. So, I stopped what I was saying and looked. We were both sitting there staring at it and it started moving again, but this time, it was moving to the left again fairly far. We were expecting it to do the same thing as the other times and disappear at the same point it normally did. But this time, it didn’t. It just kept moving. At this point we were both kind of like wtf. What we had witnessed before was crazy enough but this time i! t wasn’t doing what it was previously doing so predictably.

So, this is where it gets very weird so, please, bare with me… As it was moving to the left, it moved seemingly just under a plane/aircraft (from our prospective - not sure how close they were in reality). The plane was an obvious plane because it had the typical blinking lights on the wing tips, etc. Well, as soon as it was parallel with this plane, it literally imitated the plane. It was blinking lights in the same pattern and everything (lights that clearly weren’t ever apart of it - red lights). At that moment we both kind of freaked out and got out of our car in order to look up and follow it. It passed the plane and then changed into 3 orbs (I hate using that word because it sounds so UFO/alien but that’s the best way to describe it). Then as it flew along, it went to 2 orbs, and then back to one solid light orb. The direction it was moving became parallel to the rooftop so we were losing track of it but it was very low and close now - definitely not “star distance”. We both ran to the other side of the parking deck where there’s ! stairs that go up a flight to an open-air tennis court so we could be higher. We still had it insight and it was now curving unnaturally and circling toward us. I feel like my description isn’t giving it much justice because it was incredibly scary and it’s hard to even describe in detail. So, we’re both standing there in the freezing cold watching this thing and saying nothing because we were both fascinated and spooked at the same time, but it was like you couldn’t not watch it. When suddenly, it does a sharp turn toward us and is literally in front/above us but incredibly close, and a bright light comes on facing us and it just hovers -completely non-moving. The light was incredibly bright - almost like the spotlight that police will put on at night facing your car when they pull you over. That’s the best way I can describe it. I literally grabbed my son’s jacket and told him to run but he didn’t move at first. Then I got angry and literally told him to effing run and he! snapped out of it and we ran back down to the car as fast as ! we could I’ve never been so scared in my life. The thing was intimidating. This is going to sound crazy, but it felt like it knew we were watching it and it watched us back.

I’ll try to make this part a summary as much as possible...

We ran to the car and immediately drove down the parking deck as fast as we could (both of us freaking out the entire way down and confirming with each other what we both witnessed). We had no place to go and there was no way we were going back there so we were trying to figure out where to drive to and what we were going to do. I was taking care of this family’s dog at the time while they were out of the country and the only place I could think to go was to stay at their house. So we headed in that direction (approximately 3 miles down the road). We’re almost there and as soon as we turn right onto the main street before their subdivision, a low flying object was hovering right above the trees (tree-top level) and it was the shape of a triangle with lights but with no base to the triangle (if that makes sense). What’s really weird about this is that I heard nothing but my son claimed he heard a helicopter-like sound. I have no clue how we both were there and heard different! things. And again, this sounds like some alien/UFO B.S. and I don’t believe in that so I don’t know what to make of any of this! It was again, hovering (not moving) like it was anticipating us turning on that street and that’s when I completely freaked out and literally was in tears out of fear. We sped under it and kept driving and I don’t even know what we were both yelling to each other but we were freaking out. I just kept driving and literally felt like something bad was about to happen to us. It felt like we were being stalked/not wanted/threatened etc. We got back to where there were streetlights on a main road and I told my son that we will just sleep in our car and find a hotel parking lot (it was the only thing I could think of - if I was even thinking straight). I ended up recalling a hotel that was up ahead off the street we were on and I told him we’d go there (probably 2-ish miles from this recent instance). Again, please believe me because this is going to s! ound so insane. I wish I could take a lie detector test becaus! e I unfo rtunately wouldn’t believe this either. But we pulled right into the parking lot and after you take that right, it’s a sharp left facing this hotel. We both saw it at the same time and I stopped my car. There was this figure in the window of the hotel staring straight out and just standing there right in front of us on the 5th floor. It didn’t move. It wasn’t in a room either, it was in the hallway of the hotel that has glass to the outside. There is nothing to look at (the building isn’t in the city and it’s facing just a parking lot and trees and this was 1 in the morning. We stopped there for about 30 seconds stunned and had that awful feeling where you feel like your blood is draining from your face. We zoom out of the parking lot and the thing turns to its left and is facing the wall (so now it’s a silhouette of a side view and is still standing in place. We take a left back onto the main road and go to the closest gas station when that same aircraft passes over us agai! n. We pull into the gas station panicked and I called my sister but she didn’t answer (only family/friend I have in Georgia) then I called my mom and dad on the west coast (which was super late their time for them on a work night) and told them everything that was happening (I actually thought that something was going to happen to us and if so, I wanted to tell someone what was going on). My parents suggested going to a 24 hour diner so I looked one up that was closest to us and we headed straight there – never been to this diner before, it’s called Landmark Diner in Buckhead. After we arrived, we were handed menus and at the top of the menu they have a big tagline that says, “Where The Stars Meet At Night” – so this was extra creepy as hell! Then when my son went to use the restroom he came out and asked me to come into the men’s bathroom to see the light. There were several recessed light fixtures in the ceiling and they were all white except one that was flashing every c! olor of the rainbow. I went and asked the manager why they had! one lig ht in the bathroom that flashes different colors and he asked me to show him. I did, and he said he never noticed that before and that maybe it needed to be replaced and was about to die. Our evening was an incredibly eerie experience. That’s basically the end. We wound up sleeping in our car in a 24 hr McDonalds parking lot for the following 2 nights because we didn’t want to go back to where we first witnessed this thing.

I don’t know what to think but there is something to this rainbow star that is much more than what I think anyone has experienced or covered. There’s something very wrong. Also, we do have a picture of the man/thing in the window at the hotel, the diner menu with the tagline, and a video of the light in the men’s restroom.

Since this occurrence, we have had several odd experiences - most notably - street lights that turn off and/or start blinking when we pass, but only during certain times. When we are together and when we are in a certain state of awareness - hard to explain. It's like an energy and the lights are like a reminder. It's also happened at home when we discuss it to the point that our dog starts barking and shaking uncontrollably and climbs to the top of the sofa and won't come down.

We also have missing moments of time in our experience that my son and I cannot reconcile. That's a longer story, but incredibly scary.

Extreme speed across the sky from a long distance, not the ISS.

A relatively faint light, looking like a night time distant star moving very rapidly across the night sky from north to south. It was not the ISS as I looked at the schedule. I have seen the ISS fly over my house and even though it seems to move quickly across the sky, this object was noticeably faster. If it was an aircraft at high altitude it was moving extraordinarily quickly! I have never seen a distant object move this fast across the sky, including the ISS.

So honestly it didn’t look very odd at first it just looked like a plane but the more I looked at it the more I could see it looked more like a cigar (granted it was very far away). What really made me report it though was the distance it was covering. Like 15ish miles a second and when I did some calculations that would be close to 60000 mph. Which is ungodly fast, there also seemed to be some intelligent maneuvering going on which makes me believe it wasn’t a rocket. (It continually changed direction) although I’m no expert in weapon systems. It could have been nothing but it seemed odd, odd enough that I wanted to research and report it.

Bluish-Green oblong light traveling at high rate of speed.

Bluish-Green linear light moving at high rate of speed from east to west approximately 3 miles North of Hartsfield (Atlanta) Airport. Crossed path of commerial flights taking off from airport perpendicular to flight paths. So fast that it made commerial jets look motionless! I estimate altitude at approximately 1,000 feet.

6 lights seen in East Texas Moving strangely

It was 22:28 Thursday the 14th this March. I was waiting outside for my girlfriend to show up, and I looked up to take in the night sky. I’m used to aircraft flying over the area, it’s semi remote, and off towards the Bivins area (south and slightly west of where I was) was a grouping of six lights.

000 000 At first I thought it was a drone, or some sort of aircraft, because Barksdale AFB isn’t super far, and they have a lot of aircraft down there. I watch it kind of slowly make it way south west, still not sure what to make out of it yet, and then it suddenly turns a sharp west, and slightly increased speed. That was when I figured out that this wasn’t some formation of craft, but a single, seemingly large craft, because the way it turned was like a zero turn mower if you improved their turning radius even more.

The observer is an Army Veteran, and College student, majoring in Business Administration.

Triangle shaped lights flying through the sky

I was on highway 75 going north bound getting very close to the airport when I saw through the clouds bright lights in the shape of a triangle. The lights flashed 3 times and it appeared to be coming in for a landing. I've never seen a plane like this and I travel this highway often.

Bright orb descending over I-20 at Wesley Chapel Road

I was driving on I-20 east away from Atlanta and a bright condensed white light caught my attention ahead and to my right, so that it appeared to be south of I-20. The light was like a shooting star but about 20 times as bright. It was descending rapidly at a slight angle, and disappeared behind the trees. This was definitely not a shooting star, it was moving more slowly and deliberately than that and was too bright. As I kept driving there was an accident that had just happened on I-20 not far from where the light was headed, although the light appeared to be heading more south away from the interstate. Also, the trajectory was as of a plane crashing at a steep angle, or a flare coming down.

Triangle shaped black craft spotted near Atlanta, Georgia.

While flying from Atlanta, Georgia, to Minneapolis, MN, spotted a solid mat black triangle shaped craft flying at a speed of approximately Mach 2 at an altitude of 31,000 feet.

The aircraft was flying towards the commercial aircraft I was in and passed on the right side of the aircraft approximately 500 yds away and 1000 ft lower than my aircraft's altitude.

Triangle shaped craft bore no markings and no stabilizers or visible fins. The craft appeared to be smaller than most fighters or personal aircraft and appeared to not have a cockpit of any sort.

The craft appeared off the forward right side of the aircraft I was in and then disappeared under the right wing. As far as I know I am the only one to see the craft.

I am in the military and I study aircraft that are operated by the U.S. Military. This craft does not match any current operational military aircraft.


((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS))

Mr. Davenport, I did not inform the aircraft crew of the sighting. For some reason the thought never occurred to me. I have done some research however and I have found a prototype aircraft that is very similar to the aircraft I spotted. The craft that I found is the Boeing Phantom Ray which was produced 7 years ago in St. Louis, Missouri. I hope this helps some. Thank you for your consideration of my report and timely reply.

Floating sphere(s) seen out airline window

On commercial Delta flight 2071 from MSN to ATL cruising speed over ATL I was looking out the window at city below. Off in the short distance was a floating sphere. It was metallic, round and some nodes/small antennas. As we were flying and getting ready to bank in the plane it just stayed motionless in the sky and we passed closer to it and went by it at a slightly higher altitude. It was during daylight hours and I was confused what it was as I believe there was a second then in the distance as we circled the city. I started recording on my phone out the window in hopes I'd see it again. Too stunned or confused to record it the first time. Somehow no one else saw it nor spoke of it on plane. Never saw it again so unfortunately didn't record it. Still confused!!

It looked like a plane at first, but I noticed it was simply white with no wings at all. It also had a slight metallic shine to it. As my greyhound bus was entering Atlanta, GA, from Tampa, FL, (while escaping hurricane Irma), I saw it fairly low in the sky and close enough to see clearly. It seemed to be hovering in one spot and it looked like it could have been larger than a passenger aircraft. There was no distinguishable front or end to the craft, it looked as though the ends of the cigar shaped craft were flat.

It did start to look like it was drifting farther away from the greyhound bus, but not because were were on the highway, but because it was drifting directly away from the highway, going Eastward, even though it was pointing North/South.

Bright orbs in triangle formation slowly fly over Atlanta.

I was on my back deck with my mother and law assembling a pergola. Something caught my mother-in-law's and my eyes in the sky in the eastern direction. What we witnessed were four extremely bright white orbs grouped in a triangular formation. One at each point of triangle, one perfectly in the center.

The formation was slowly moving southeast completely silent. I thought it was airplanes flying in formation, but no sound, no exhaust trail. The orbs were also shimmering, almost like they were changing colors from pink to green and bright white.

As they crossed the sky, they changed formation to single file.

13+ white dots spotted hovering over downtown Atlanta during an EDM festival.

Around 4-5 pm in the middle of an amazing song, everyone was enthralled by, someone next to me pointed to the sky and said balloons.

At first we saw a few balloons...orange blue yellow clearly balloons that colored with strings on them...I turned around 30 seconds later. And what seemed like a bunch of balloons behind the close balloons all of sudden were white dots floating up down left and right... Not a ton of movement. It seemed as if they were watching/listening/feeling the festival.

I've never seen anything like this so and I've always been interested in these kinds of things, so I decided to report it.

Bright light in the sky- HUGE object, going faster then anything iv ever seen, then disappeared on 85s

My fiancé and I were driving down 85 south, we were speaking casually when all of a sudden a HUGE bright light went from Left of my windshield to Right. It was going down in a slanted motion but incredibly fast. At that moment, we were both like, "Are you seeing what I'm seeing!?" It looked as if the object would crash but just disappeared. This was a light so bright we immediately knew it wasn't a shooting star. It wasn't a plane (nothing crashed) it also had no streak tail in the sky and no sound. It looked way to large to be anything logical.

We couldn't believe what we just saw. My fiancé is not a believer and was in shock from what we had seen. NOTHING like it. There would be no way nobody else driving on the interstate could have missed it.

I immediately called kids outside, to see the Space Station, but realized this was much lower maybe 10K feet? There were no other lights. Even my eight year old daughter said its only bright white not another color to be seen for duration.

I have heard you for years on shows to say to report these as we see them, and I have usually not done so, but now that time has passed.

What is it?

I do not know what this is but would like an expert to look at it. I was at Atlanta airport in one of the smoking rooms. Likely concourse A or C. The picture is taken through glass. I did not notice this in the photo until now and I did not see it the day i took the picture. I don't recall round lights being in the smoking room however there could be and it may be a reflection. Just seems odd. You can see the shadow of me in the glass. It is not in the picture taken a few seconds before. About 20 seconds apart. I am emailing pictures.

White dot spotted in the sky stationary for a number of minutes then zoomed off.

While out for an afternoon walk with my wife and 3-month old twins, we noticed a white dot in the sky. The object appeared to be in a location that was not the place for a plane or helicopter to be. The object also seemed to be too big to be a drone. I own a couple of drones and so I am familiar with their shape, size and flight characteristics. This white object was stationary for a number of minutes and then zoomed off. We lost it behind a building. A video (sorry, iPhone only) was taken at the time. You can see the footage here:

triangular shaped cluster resembling Stars

First I noticed, then my wife noticed and verified and photographed a triangular cluster of three stars far above 30000 feet above the approach path for airplanes 4 Hartsfield International Airport in Atlanta. What appeared to be a triangular cluster of stars moved apart then move back together.

Could not have been a helicopter because they are not allowed to fly in this airplane pathway.

Could not have been a blimp because these were far too high. Could not have been a meteor or asteroid because they would have been inflamed when entering the Earth's atmosphere and moving.

Was definitely not a plane because we watched the lights in a stationary orbit.

We then photographed them as they separated and came closer back together.

Could not have been a drone because for a drone to be seen and that altitude, it would have to be huge and larger than a 747.

My friend and I were sitting outside of our campsite watching the sunrise over the mountains, and suddenly a bright flash appeared in the distance. It moved very quickly away and flashed 5 times while moving. Then it just disappeared. I have seem aircraft and satellites, but this was nothing like that. It was an extremely bright flash and appeared to be moving outward at a tremendous speed before just disappearing. The sky was clear and was moving away from the mountains so there was no way it could have disappeared behind something.

Seven 'Light' 'Spheres's' - in synchronicty moving in the sky - unlike anything my wife and I have ever seen. Ever.

Sunday, June 19th – approximately 245am Location of sighting: Midtown, Atlanta, GA, (30308)

My wife and I were (sitting) on our front deck. Second floor front deck. In the midst of a conversation we were having about her work department (a rather important natured dialogue), my wife said to me, “Babe- oh my god-babe.. look” (verbatim). She stood and pointed directly past me – west, north west – I got up and turned toward the direction she was pointing at – the direction toward the sky.

I turned and looked and saw SEVEN (I eventually counted) rotating lights in the sky- I (we) immediately thought they were Hollywood style sky spotlights – the ones you would see in the sky for a premier of a show, a movie. But they were not: too late in the morning –way too late.

We continued to watch these “light-spheres” and could only make them out –with the eye –when they passed through the moving puffy clouds. Meaning that they only made themselves apparent when passing through the clouds. When they didn’t pass through the clouds there was ZERO trace of them. They passed through the clouds in incredibly bizarre formations-they bounced off one another–we watched for 20 minutes (approx.) until the clouds passed.

It was simply surreal.

Spotted 12 solid red lights flying in the formation of a triangle slow moving across the night sky.

12:16:00 am - June 19, 2016. Approximately 200 to 300 feet in the air, I spotted three solid bright red lights flying in the formation of a triangle slow moving across the night sky from the southeast toward the west. Another similar formation of three lights followed the previous three lights. I observed the set of objects (6 lights total) make a deep (simultaneous) turn right toward the northwest and disappeared from view.

No sound was heard.

20 seconds later-Another second set of lights (6 lights total) in same triangle shaped formation appeared from the same direction (southeast moving toward west), made the same precise turn toward the northwest and disappeared from view like the previous six.

All the observed objects passed below the full moon.

20 minutes later a nondescript helicopter with red and white flashing lights came from the same direction and race off toward the northwest, too.

Craft releases smaller object which then vanishes into thin air above Atlanta, Georgia

This craft, black in appearance seemed to be a curved craft. It came out of the clouds, hovered, dropped a smaller object which after falling a short distance from the mothership, seemed to vanish into thin air. I saw this report on youtube, which includes pictures and a video. A link in a comment under the video leads to a very clear picture. A friend of mine has a friend who may have seen this.

I will update with more info soon.

Shape: Disk


Large disc over downtown Atlanta.

From my window, on the 7th floor of my apartment building in downtown Atlanta, I noticed the dark silhouette of a thick disc shaped object over the Westin hotel, it appeared creased in the middle, and hovered. Judging from the distance from my window to the Westin I could approximate the height of the object as being 1000 ft or so from the ground. I shined a staples laser pointer at it, and it slowly flew south west over the city and banked out of view to the West.

Also judging from its height and flight trajectory over buildings I know the distance to, I think it was at least 30 ft in diameter and perhahps 8-10 ft tall. I also noticed some odd looking red flickering lights in one of the adjacent skyscrapers while the disc was present.

I saw a bright dot in the western sky, two attached circles white and silver visible only with binoculars.

I was looking for birds from my deck with a binoculars, and I stumbled on this bright dot in the western sky. I could barely see it naked eye, but it was Ok with the binoculars.

My wife and niece watched too. It was hoovering and moving a little bit left and right (south and north). I couldn't make out very well the shape, which looked like a to spheres attached one to the other. The color appeared to be white and silver. It was very far high in the sky.

That day there was a good amount of commercial airplanes flying from East to West, south of my observation point. It doesn't happened every day to see that many planes in that point at that time, it might be a route that is taken due to weather or else, and by the way the weather was perfect that morning. Anyway, at a certain point I am not sure where it went but it was not there any more.

I don't know what I was looking at, my niece (21 y o) doesn't either, but she says she saw a UFO. It was a UFO to me, at least, I don't want to jump to conclusions.

Considering the shape (to spheres attached one to the other) and the fact that it was not moving and it appeared to reflect light (at that time 8 am the sun was low in the eastern sky and was shining toward west hitting this object which was reflecting the light). It was very difficult to spot, I saw it by accident. I don't expect many people having seen it too.

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aircraft nearby

I observed a moving light through an aircraft's window over Atlanta, Ga.

I was on Delta Airlines Flight 1667 flying from Atlanta, GA, to Myrtle Beach, S.C. The aircraft was a MD-88 and I was sitting in seat 19E on the starboard side of the aircraft, several rows forward of the wing, which I could see on the right side of my window when I leaned forward.

We took off an hour late at around 22:29. There was an overcast of Cirrus-stratus or Alto-stratus clouds. The full moon was not visible through this layer. There were no lower clouds and city lights were plainly visible without obstruction during the initial climb out after takeoff. There were no reading lights in use near me. There were also no electronics in use with illuminated screens nearby that would have reflected on the inside of the window.

Shortly after takeoff the aircraft leveled out and the lights of the city were plainly visible with a definite darker area extending out to the horizon visible under a slightly lighter sky over that. At this point I was looking down at the city lights, when I noticed a light separate itself from the rest and begin to move. It was a banana yellow color and was moving upward at a slow and steady pace. There were no other details to it. I could not judge its distance from us.

As it moved, it appeared to be heading on an opposite course to ours and was climbing at an angle of approximately forty five degrees. From my perspective it moved from the lower left of the window to its upper right corner where I lost it to view.

The light became obscured by the leading edge of the wing and then reappeared over the rear upper edge of the wing or wingtip. All this time which was probably a minute or so the light did not change in brightness or flicker. The color stayed the sa! me and so did its speed of ascent. I was unable to observe the object further as it went out of my limited field of view even by shifting my position. I don't know if anyone else on the aircraft saw this. There was no apparent reaction. The young man sitting next to me on the left was listening to music and not looking out the window. This whole thing occurred to quickly to try to get anyone's attention.

During the initial takeoff before we leveled out there were other aircraft visible. This light or object did not exhibit their characteristics. I have flown numerous times at night and have seen plenty of aircraft leaving or arriving at airports. This was not one of them. Its apparent point of origin was not from any airport. It was an urban environment. Shortly after this we began to ascend again and banked for a course change. I checked my watch and it was now 22:35.

I am sixty two years old, male, and was travelling alone returning home from a family related trip. I am a retired social worker and business manager. I am an amateur astronomer and avid sky watcher. I have no clue what this was. I only know what it wasn't. I considered raising this issue with the pilot upon landing at Myrtle Beach, but decided to avoid that and take this approach instead. I don't know how he would have reacted, but I did speak with him about the natural fireworks of distant thunderstorms visible to our south during the flight at higher altitude which he was also quite enthusiastic about.

We noticed a bright object in the sky during the day. It was strange because it did not move at all. Completely fixed like a star is in the night sky and about the size of a really bright star but during the day. The intensity of it grew at which point a second smaller fixed object appeared next to it. As the original bright object decreased in intensity the smaller one faded away and eventually the larger one slowly disappeared. The object had a bright white color with a small amount of orange mixed in it. Was so unusual. It did not move which makes me think it had to be outside of the atmosphere as if it were celestial.

Me and my co-workers were astonished by the event.

Identified February 3rd, 2015, photos of alien grey to be a hoax.

Hello,

I just wanted to pass along some info about one of the reports on your homepage. I found the images submitted to be so intriguing that I decided to do a thorough search to try to eliminate it being a hoax.

Long story short, after cruising through several pages of image search for "alien grey sculpture" (assuming a high quality sculpture would be a great prop for hoaxing) I found an image that was from what I could tell identical to the "alien" in the photos just flipped horizontally. I did a reverse image search, and found this image on a post dating back to 2008 as just a generic example image of a "grey".

The post on your site: Atlanta, Georgia, Tuesday, February 3rd, 2015, @ 0645 HRS. (EST) - A woman reports that she, her son, and her daughter were driving to work, when they allegedly witness a strange-looking object in the morning sky. The attempt to photograph the object, and apparently inadvertently photograph an alien creature, standing on the roadway in front of their car.

I took the time to do the digging, so I figured I'd use that time to report this to you so it didn't just all go to waste.

Thanks.

Not a joke.......not losing it either......got a question? For God's sake please tell me what in the world this is and where I should call to report it?

My family saw something strange in the sky Tuesday am approx. 6:45am, while in the car, and took pictures of it. We could not identify the flying object which was too close for comfort. We kept trying to blow it up from all angles on the cell phone tonight and zoomed down towards the ground on the cell and this is what shows up. The neighborhood trash was scattered in the street.

We have several pictures of the thing and when you zoom in to the head you can see the eyes. Later that day 2 army trucks were riding through the neighborhood which was strange but we did not pay much attention to it.

I called the non-emergency police number and the young lady told me to call back tomorrow to see if I could get appropriate numbers to call. What do you think? Please let me know. I emailed it to 2 news stations here and was referred to you to file a sighting.

You could see it better and blow it up from all angles on the cell phone where the pictures were actually taken from. We e-mailed the pictures to my personal email and I saved it as a PowerPoint and zoomed in on it. I had to brighten the contrast on it in PowerPoint because it was dark outside.

(I will try to email you the pictures....I want you to see them.)

Two Triangular bright white lights , and one long object lighted , all very bright. All somewhat close to each other .

I emailed Atlanta Fox 5 to see if any saw these lights. I have been driving this route to work for over 10 years and never seen this before. I know someone else had to see this. I was trying to get a good picture - but I was being honked at. By time I could get a snap of the lights - I didn't see the lights but had snapped a shot anyways.Did not see any cell tower or building or weather balloon. Interesting and I want to know what it is. Two bright white lights both the shape of candy corn (Triangular) shape and one longer looking light to the right of them . This was north east on 285 Interstate near Roswell Road but before the exit and past the river . The Military base is not far from location however I didn't hear any noise - like it may have been droids.

Lights are elaborate on craft.. reminiscent of a diamond flickering in the sunlight.. always near the airport

Craft sits perfectly still and flashes multiple colors( like a diamond flickering in sunlight ) near the flight/landing track the planes take going into the airport.. I stay near the Falcons stadium.. the planes come in and make a huge U-Turn from heading eastbound toward the south.. at first I assumed that it was a a helicopter.. but i've seen helicopters leave from near Grady hospital and there is usually just one yellowish light that is on. These lights on this craft flash in color from white, to red, to blue, to yellowish, to aqua.. i've seen this same craft a few times in the distance as the planes come in on their track toward the airport.. Hopefully i'm not misidentifying this this craft.. it could be a helicopter with an elaborate light fixture that monitors the planes landing and has lights to make sure its visible to all planes coming in?.. I will try to send a video next time I see this.. i've seen it a few times.. I've also witnessed a satellite ! in passing.. I have a keen eye and i'm able to discern what can be explained and what can't..

Large stationary high altitude object above SW Atlanta Sky in broad daylight

Mid-afternoon, full daylight I spotted a spherical object in the SW sky.

The object appeared to be much higher than aircraft presumed to be flying at approximately 30,000 ft cruising altitude.

I would estimate about 50,000 ft and appeared to be larger than commercial aircraft.

The object appeared to be stationary. I site lined the object with the plumbing vents on the roof of my house for confirmation. A neighbor was in the adjacent yard. He also saw the object very clearly. I also called a friend who is a Government Building Inspector. He was able to pull into a parking lot and also saw the object.

My girl friend arrived while the neighbor and I were viewing the object, and she also saw it.

We were amazed that it was stationary for over 45 minutes before the angle of the sun and cloud cover concealed it.

A bright blue light hovering over downtown Atlanta Ga.

I was standing in a parking lot, toward downtown Atlanta, when I looked up and saw a blue light hovering in the distance, it went up straight into the sky, then it went directly right and then left, thats when I started filming, when it went right and left it didn't hesitate, it was fast and had a very smooth quick motion.

Then it finally went down and blinked off. I'm not sure if it was a UFO or just some building light, but I don't think it was.

I have a video below so let me know if anyone has seen anything like this before.

Orange and green lights in southwest Atlanta

My son and his friends were outside last night - which was a clear and cloudless night sky when two bright lights flashed in the sky.

It was extremely bright and flashed orange and green (another friend said orange and blue).

They described it as being as close as the top floor on a twenty to thirty floor building and each light being about the size of a two car garage door.

It was bright enough to lite up the sky. At least our neighborhood it flashed twice and went away.

If they were planes they were following very close to each other very close. But I didn't hear any plane noises. They were yellow and red in color.

White strobe, single flash very fast, horizontal/vertical movement covering miles in 1 second.

Observed May 20th, 2014 approximately 10:40pm West of Atlanta IL.

My daughter and I were sitting on the front porch when I observed a white bright strobe in the sky. The bright light only flashed one time similar to a camera flash. I saw a total of five flashes that placed the source literally miles away from each flash that was approximately one second apart from one another.

The first flash appeared as if the source was 20 plus thousand feet in the sky and to my south west.

The second flash was same approximately 20 plus thousand feet however to the north west of the sky, literally miles away from the first flash.

The third flash was even higher than the first two, and was directly above where the second flash was located however thousands of feet higher as if it shot straight up.

The fourth flash was directly beneath the third flash as if it had fallen straight down and appeared to be lower than all the other flashes.

I could see that it literally shot back to the south with the last flash being literally miles away in one second.

My daughter and I have no idea what we witnessed. I am 51 years old and skeptic to UFO’s, however I know what I saw. There is no way that this was anything like we have on earth. This was not a jet, I see jets all of the time flying over….this was covering miles in one second bursts. There were no green or red lights. Strictly one white flash placing it miles apart from each flash.

Went outside because we noticed a police drone hovering outside over midtown just off our balcony over peachtree street northeast and 11th st. As we were on the balcony we noticed in the much further distance to the south/southeast very high in the sky 2 then 3 then 5 black sphere shaped objects moving way to slow to be planes. They also had no lights or anything on them like we can see from the planes circling heading to and from the airport.

They continued to move very slowly in the same direction. Two we lost sight of then remaining three held a perfect triangle shape until a third seemed to disappear in a clear section of the sky and the last 2 moved behind a cloud and then were gone.

Objects were to far in the distance to pick up on my camera. Exact points in the sky can be referenced from buildings and towers in the same direction of the sighting

I saw a bright red light floating along like a helicopter, but I could not hear anything.

The red light was all that was visible. Sometimes there was an aura coming off.

It was flying south past Piedmont Park, then turned west.

Two more followed.

It is a clear night.

round orb, zig zagging across sky, dimmed and changed lights

Driving home we saw neighbors looking up pointing at something. We stopped the car, got out, saw a bright orb in the sky. The orb moved very slowly at first. Then began to zig zag across the sky. At one point it changed its bright lights to peripheral lights as if it were making a landing and powering down. Then it disappeared behind the tree line. The general direction the object was seen was over the general vicinity of Stone Mountain.

Triangle with green light over Atlanta, just north of downtown

The object moved across the interstate highway as I was driving on a side road alongside the highway. The object was triangular in shape. My guess of its altitude is about 3000 feet. When I lowered my window, I was unable to detect if it made any sound as the highway traffic was heavy. Had it been an airplane, though, it was low enough that I would have heard its engines. The light on the object was green, but it was solidly on--as opposed to an airplane light which blinks.

Pulling my vehicle to the side of the road for a better view, in the moment it took me to open my door, the craft has disappeared. I continued to look for it for several seconds, but did not see it again.

Two red and two green lights came across the top of our car at a fast rate of speed.

Stopped at a red light at the intersection of North Druid Hills and Buford Hwy two side-by-side green lights and directly behind them two side-by-side red lights came quickly toward and across the top of our car.

At first, it looked like a distant plane, but the speed, size and close location to our car spoke differently. My husband didn't see it on the driver's side, but others my have seen it at the intersection.

Immediately, I started having electrical nerve pain in my right elbow down to my hand for a couple of days after. It was a feeling of banging my funny bone. May not be related, but I didn't hit my elbow and it happened immediately after it went across the top of our car.

Cylinder object seen near Downtown Atlanta

My girlfriend and I were heading home when she noticed a strange object in the sky. She told me that the object wasn’t like an airplane, since we live near Hartfield International Airport. I looked for a place to pull over to get a better look.

As we came to the top of the street near an open field, I exited the car to look for the object. Between two trees, slightly below the treeline, facing East, I saw a white/silverfish cylinder shaped craft/object hovering in the air. It looked to be metallic because of the way the sun reflected the light.

From the distance I observed it at, it had to be nearly ½ mile long. It hovered without a sound for a few seconds, shifted to the right slightly, shifted to the left then shot out of sight to the left (towards the South).

I just stood there amazed.

The object was gone before I had a chance to get my camera up.

Very bright orange glowing object noted Atlanta, Georgia airport area.

5/30/13: While traveling through downtown Atlanta, Georgia on highway 75 at approx 9:15pm, one bright orange/red light noticed in northern sky traveling south. Light appeared to pulsate regularly, to a brighter light.

Object was circular, with no sound noted, and was traveling separately from the many other aircraft coming into the airport area at that time. Appeared to be lower than other planes in area, and not interfering with their flight paths.

Object appeared to ascend into sky, then disappeared.

One observer in car with previous AF history noted that the object was not a fixed wing, or rotary aircraft, saw an orange pulsating light at bottom of aircraft. He stated that the aircraft itself as an opaque, translucent type material, with darker “lines” , egg-shaped, with bottom of “egg” cut off by orange light.

At least five planes noted in surrounding area sky appearing to be on approach to land at airport, but in holding pattern with landing li! ghts on to the north of city.

They all had blinking lights and were round in shape via the orientation of the bright orange lights when I took photos. Some were appearing to be large upon entry from the south but then the got smaller in diameter when passing the city skyline.

Some of the craft doubled back towards the direction that they initially came from and some just hovered in certain spots.

Verified Oddity

I am a UFO enthusiast. So, I spend a lot of time star gazing. I've never before seen anything out of the ordinary. But the other night, while driving, something caught my eye. A stationary blinking light that appeared to just hover and blink. The road I was driving is quite curvy, so I slowed, and watched for about four seconds. The blink then reappeared very far away toward the east, then once again, then I never saw another blink. I did not mention this to anyone, my friends already ridicule my UFO enthusiasm enough. But walking with a close friend, who absolutely does not believe in UFO's, she reported seeing something "weird" in the sky around the same night of my encounter. She proceeded to describe the exact same event. I found out she, though in a different car, was on a nearby road, driving the same direction, at the same time. She described all of this to me BEFORE I told her of my encounter. Her description matched all of my details, incl! uding a stationary blinking white light, two blinks toward the east, then no more. She, however, was not driving and had more time to really observe this object. I find it most unusual she told me this, since she cringes every time I try to show her anything on UFOs.

Duration: 2-3 seconds


Location: Atlanta, GA, USA

Shape: Other
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

I was on Delta flight 1307 from Richmond to Atlanta. I was sitting on the left side of the plane in a window seat. About seven minutes prior to landing I saw an object outside the plane. It was moving at a good speed and passed under the wing. It seemed close to the airplane but not close enough to hit the plane.

It had a circular, aqua colored top that appeared hard and a light, silver colored, narrow cylinder coming out of the bottom of it. In terms of size it was not larger than the wing of the plane. I’ve Googled weather balloons and it was definitely not a balloon.

I told the people beside me I saw something weird and they started joking around and making reference to the X-Files show. I laughed out of nervousness.

I reluctantly asked the guy behind me when we landed if he happened to see anything odd from the plane and he said he said he saw it as well and that it freaked him out and that he was just going to pretend he didn’t see it. He said he was ex military and it was definitely not a stealth probe.

He agreed to go to the pilot afterwards with me. We told the pilot and the flight attendant at the front of the plane what we saw. The pilot said it was probably a balloon (which it was not) or a tower on the ground (which it was not) and that they would "check it out." The other witness and I were surprised that they didn’t ask for our names or info.

Let me state that I have never believed in UFOs, etc. prior to this. I don’t know if this is something being tested by our government or another country or if it was really other-worldly. I can only describe what I saw.




NUFORC Note:

We spoke via telephone with this witness, and she seemed to us to be exceptionally eloquent, and objective in her description of the sighting. We suspect that she is a highly reliable witness. PD

Whirl driving home from work headed west on I-20. I saw a star like object in the sky. I have seen this object almost everyday for the past 3 months going to work or coming from work. I usually spot the object headed East or West on I-20 headed to Atlanta or headed towards Alabama. My sightings are always during the day when the sky is clear.

The object usually appear for several minutes and its always appear to be stationary and than it just vanishes. When it vanishes their are no clouds in the sky.

I have also seen white streaks in the sky that resemble jet fume, but I never see the actual jets that could create the streaks. The streaks are usually short and spaced far apart high in the sky. It also seems that they are outside of a planes altitude.

Looking closely it looked kind of like a conventional NASA style space craft traveling up wards.

But the trail only went so long and never longer.

I think there were four boosters.I even have a crappy picture of it.

It appeared to just sit still in the sky which makes Me think it was real far away.maybe it was a satellite or something.

Bright object in sky

So during the super bowl on Sunday I stepped outside to smoke a cigarette and looked up at the sky as I usually do and saw the brightest what I thought to be a star. So I called my mom outside to see it. Well upon further observation I realized that it was not a star because it was a lot lower than any of the other stars. In fact, it was in the air space as many planes flew by it and it, I live in Southwest Atlanta off of Sylvan Rd. The object was moving at a slow pace and the thought of it being a plane was quickly dismissed because the light did not match the direction in which it was headed and there were no additional lights. The object was in my view for a good 45 minutes to an hour before it was no longer visible. I do have a video recording and picture that I will send as soon as I find out how to upload it from the camera to the computer.

On Monday 2/6/12, I saw the same object again also during the eight o’clock hour. I again called my mom to verify that she saw it and then called my aunt who lives a few blocks away, to look outside and see if it was visible to her. She didn’t see it so I went to get her so she could have a look and give me her thoughts of what it could be. She saw it and we presumed to follow it to try and get a closer look, but we were unable to keep visual contact due to the object moving and trees blocking the view. We did spot it again hit and miss with a clear view when we got to Cascade Rd.

The only reason I am reporting it is because we could not come to a consensus of what it could be and thought maybe someone else will help us figure it out.

Irregular triangle cluster of 3 very bright white lights low to the west 6:35 a.m. - Southside Atlanta.

On my way to work this morning, noticed very bright white lights fairly low to the west.

As I was driving along (north on Stanton Rd.), trees and buildings would block my view, got to a spot where I could clearly view it and stopped in the road to see if it was moving. It was hovering but appeared to drift a bit to the south. No sound was heard, too bright to be an airplane or helicopter, 3 bright white lights in irregular triangle formation.

A vehicle approached from my rear and I had to proceed as it is fairly narrow road and there was nowhere to pull over. My first thought was "ISS" and then "blimp" but no structure could be discerned. Sky was still mostly dark - I cannot begin to say what it was.

As I pulled onto the entrance ramp for Langford Frwy (166), I glanced back and saw 3 dim white lights moving at speed overhead to the east - I can only assume it was the same object as I had not noticed any other air traffic in the area.

Object initially was approx. 35 degrees above horizon, maybe half mile away, maybe 1500 feet altitude or more. Lights werre not spaced uniformly. Diddn't appear to be any more than 10 feet across, if that much.

It is difficult to give good measurements as sky was dark and lights were very bright and in a triangular cluster rather than spread out as along a wing. I have reported this also to MUFON.

I contacted Fulton County Airport (Brown Field) to see if they had a blimp launch from there this morning (object was to their southeast). Airport Mgr. replied my e-mail - he has forwarded my info to the ATC tower and will let me know if they have any info.

Triangular light followed by red ball of light seen in Atlanta, Georgia

My friend and I were sitting outside stargazing when something captured our eyes. We had already been outside for about 15 minutes when we saw a bright light coming towards us across the sky from a distance. It was traveling much faster than any man made aircraft or jet plane would travel at.

At first we had not a clue of what it could be but at this point we knew for sure it was not an airplane or human made aircraft of any kind. As this object passed right above us it slowed down at a very speedy rate. The object first turned out as a large orange ball of light going at a tremendous speed, but as it got closer it appeared to have the shape of a triangle.

We could see a large orange triangle shaped light in the center. We could also see that there were 3 blue lights moving in a circular motion around this bright Orange triangle light. We felt almost as if something in this craft were watching us back.

This object was the brightest flying object we had ever seen in the sky in our life. The object hovered for about another minute or so and disappeared within the blink of an eye. Not even 30 seconds after this craft disappeared an enormous solid red ball of light passed by in the same path as the other UFO we had just believed to witness. These objects were completely silent as well and flew about 500 feet above us.

My friend and I remain baffled.

Two bright crafts hovering & moving together in clear mis day

I went to my local driving range because it was a fantastic spring like day. I popped the hatchback to sit and put on my golf shoes. As I was putting them on my attention was drawn to the really large American Flag almost directly above me. I could see a normal chem. Trail going right behind it and thought it was cool looking. This is why I was looking up. I have (knock on wood) great vision. 20/20 – And I saw two objects in the sky near another jet (not the same one that had the chem. Trail behind the flag but a similar jet that I see in Atlanta all the time). These crafts seemed very silver – at times the sun reflected off them – and slowly. They seemed small, but far and very silver. I knew right away that they were not normal crafts that I see in the air. They were very very high in the sky. They hovered like helicopters but didn’t look or move (left, right, up, down) like a helicopter would. The other point I really want to underscore is they moved tog! ether. They seemed to keep the same distance from each other and traveled in the same direction – but that direction was not just east or west – more like zig-zag –quite slowly. I never saw anytime of spinning or jets – they were real still. I watched them as far as I could as they got smaller. It was something I will remember forever. It was such a clear day and such a clear image to remember. And so unlike anything I have ever seen.

Disk shaped aircraft with bubble top illuminated from within, orange pulsing light on underneath, hovering south of I-75 near Atlanta

Friday evening at night fall I was driving north on I-75 (Atlanta, Georgia) but was still south of Atlanta Hartsfield International Airport. To the west of I-75 I would say a couple of miles or so away – difficult to judge distance when the object is in the air – I saw a large illuminated craft hovering in the sky. At first I thought I was seeing an airplane coming in for a landing; I was driving and trying to look at the same time. It was evident that the object was NOT an airplane although it could have been the size of a small plane. The object was disk shaped and looked to have a bubble top. There was an orange colored light on the underneath side that pulsed maybe every 10-15 seconds. I was intent on getting to my destination in Atlanta so I did not pull over or exit the Interstate to investigate – wish I had. I look for a logical explanation – have never seen an object in the air that I could not identify and thought that this object should be a! blimp or an advertising attention getter. I was told that there has been a blimp in that area for around a week, but I saw that blimp and it is the wrong shape, not illuminated from within, and the light it has is on top of the craft and pulsates more frequently – and the blimp is on the move, not hovering. I never saw this other aircraft move. I was only able to observe it for probably 2 – 3 minutes as I was driving, but it was unusual to the extent that I thought I should report it.

A big ring-like object with bright lights in Atlanta

I saw a big circular ring with lights floating in the sky. It moved smoothly in all directions and then just went away. This was in the Midtown Atlanta area between Atlantic station and Peachtree St NW.
