My wife and I went into the hot tub during a bright sunny day in September. There were no clouds in the sky. The sky was blue. We were in for about five minutes or so when I noticed a small cloud come into view over to the right. I kept my eye on it. I realized that it had stopped. How could a cloud float to a position then stop in midair? There was a breeze, so you would expect to see the cloud moving especially when it floated into view in the first place. I looked at it intensely. I asked it to show me some lights. All this time I did not mention it to my wife. She was enjoying her hot tub time and I did not want to disturb her. As I looked at the cloud, I could make out a triangle shape in the small cloud. There was some dim glowing light activity at the tip of the triangle behind the cloud. It looked like some movement of white orbs. It was slight but I could make it out. The triangle shape then became more profound and I noticed that in the background ! was another outline of a triangle that was getting smaller. An invisible triangle was rising straight up into the sky. The triangle shape had lifted out of the small cloud but still had cloud around it. I could see the original triangle shape in the cloud start to dissipate. I watched the shape rise into the sky, but it no longer had any cloud around to reveal its shape. It was gone. About six to eight seconds after that, the cloud that was standing still started to disappear. I knew that it was going to do that. The cloud was gone. There was a triangle shape that was hiding in that small cloud. Maybe it needed to become visible to interact with the glowing objects that I saw.

I was out on the back deck. I was in a pretty good mood and was being a little silly. I have seen so many UFO’s or unusual things that I was kidding around by swinging my head quickly looking in directions so as to catch something. Like trying to catch it in the act. I was laughing with myself playing this game. After about seven times or so I was going to stop when to my left an orb floats in over the yard right next to the deck. It was about the size of a baseball. It was about eight feet off the ground moving about average walking speed. It was not floating in a perfectly straight line. It had a slight fluid like motion to it. It looked natural. The orb was undulating with sudden outbursts of energy. There were globs of It surging and swelling out of it but then retracting into the round shape. The undulations were short. Each one about a half second. It was a very pure white light. Very intense. Not like a flashlight shining in your face though. If you d! idn’t look right into it, you would not be bothered by it. I was looking right at it though. It was about seven feet away from me at the same height as my eyes. The undulations were about every two seconds. It had a personality. I could sense it immediately. It is a living creature. I felt that it had some anxiety or that it was a little tense. I do not know why. I think that I was hearing a slight sound from the orb when it undulated. It was kind of an energetic electric sound. The moment was so incredible that I was overwhelmed. I was looking straight into the orb but had to look away because the light was so intense. As it past right in front of me it let out it’s most intense undulation and I felt that it was looking at me. I had to bow my head to recover from the intensity for a slight moment but when I looked back up, I put my arms out and said loudly “Hey!”. I wanted to communicate with it and didn’t want it to go away. I don’t know exactly what happened at that mome! nt, but I had to look away again. I crouched down into a kneel! ing posi tion then I lifted my head up to look. The orb got spooked and started zigzagging into the sky very quickly. I watched it as it disappeared into the clouds. The whole experience lasted about ten to twelve seconds.

Completely silent craft

During a no fly time frame of covid, looked out the window around 4:30 am to see about 20 helicopters flying in formation. Watched for few moments with my husband. We thought it odd to see this in the early hours and during covid when nothing was flying.
Around 512 he went out to leave and I walked to tell him bye for work. We witnessed a large triangle shaped craft come up the hay field at a very high rate of speed. As the craft came to a stop it slowly turned sideways and straightened and shot forward scaling the hill in front of our house, possibly 900 feet high. It felt like you could reach up and touch it but was massive. If I had to guess a size possibly the size of a football field. The craft was completely silent with very little sound of air. It was completely black with no shine just dark. There was 2 lights on each side and round light in the center. The light in the center was extremely bright and illuminated the area, the other lights had a glow, not very bright.

At 4 am there was helicopters in the sky flying from west to east. My husband and I stood and watched as the helicopters Flying in a pattern of 3 helicopters (that I could actually see) one close to my back ya one over top of the hill and another one beside it. We watched until we could no longer see them. At around 5 am he was backing up, there was a large absolutely silent triangular shaped craft fly from west to East. The craft came up out hay field at an incredible speed and very close to the ground. There was a red light on one side green light on the opposite with a large bright white light in the center. As it came closer to the house, the craft started slowing down and turned on it’s side in a tilt, straightened out and we could see the underneath it looked so big like we could just reach up and touch it. This lasted only seconds and then it took off over the hill in front of our house in the north. It seemed so close but it was high enough in the sky to clear the hill and all the trees. It moved so fast it was gone in seconds and was completely silent.

It was around 6:30 in the evening and the sun was setting. I was walking across my back deck towards the house when I saw large, strange light through the bushes a way down the valley looking west. You see lights in that direction from time to time from airplanes with their landing lights on making a turn to line up with a nearby airport. This light was different though. It was a large round matte white circle. It was large. I would say it was about fifty to seventy-five feet in diameter with the distance I saw it at. I turned and walked back into the yard to get a clear view past the bushes. There are some trees at the edge of the yard and were still restricting my view but a good amount of the foliage was gone from them so I could still see. As I got down to the yard the circle of light disappeared. I had a feeling that something significant just happened though. I looked to the sky above the house looking south and two large fuzzy orbs with particle tails! shot through the sky going west down the valley. One was a little in front of the other, but they were side by side. I would say that they were about five hundred feet off the ground and about five hundred feet away from me. They were not that bright. They were dim and almost blended into the peachy colored sunset sky behind. They had tails that looked like particles of light. I would estimate that each orb was about thirty foot in diameter. It looked as if they were on a mission. They were traveling fast and looked like they knew exactly where they were going. This whole occurrence lasted about eight seconds.

So, what I believe I saw was two large orbs exiting a portal. When I noticed the large round light in the valley it immediately caught my eye. I knew in an instant that it was something out of the ordinary. As I mentioned, the round light was a matte white, not so bright but uniform in intensity and had a definite circular boundary to it. The large orbs flying through the air were beautiful. They had such a majestic look to them. These orbs were here on a mission. The way they flew through the valley was fast and in a strait line. They were going somewhere fast. Incredible. Where are they from? Where were they going? What are they doing? Are they orbs or are these actually craft that look like light? Please believe me when I tell you, this is exactly what I saw. It was clear as day. This exists.

This was a brief but very interesting sighting. I live in a valley. Our house sits about halfway up on one of the sides. It was summer and was bedtime. I was getting ready for bed and my wife had already gotten into bed with the lights out. As I was walking through the bedroom, I caught a glimpse of two golden orange orbs floating through the valley. They were next to each other and I am telling you, they were going for a little exploration together or something of the like. I explain in other orb stories that I have written that; the orbs have a personality; you notice it immediately. You can almost “see” their character. It’s as if they were going on a stroll together up the valley and conversing along the way. Their movement was at a slow pace and not so much in a straight line, kind of wavey. I would estimate that their size was about the size of a volleyball. The light was not that bright, it was more of a glow. The window That I was looking out at them! through was small, so I lost view of them as they traveled past quite quickly. I ran into the other room to try and see them but lost sight of them.

Shape: Cylinder


This was definitely one of the strangest things that I have ever seen. It was a sunny Sunday afternoon. My wife and I were on the back deck enjoying the weather. I noticed an object come into view over the top of the trees toward the rear of our property. We have large cliffs in our backyard with trees on top, so the height of the object was about 200 ft and about 500 ft away. At first, I did not know what I was looking at. I then realized that it was something highly unusual. It had no wings; it was cylindrical and was spinning on its long axis. It was about 10ft long by 5ft wide. It was spinning clockwise. I stepped off the deck and walked into the yard to get a better look of it. What I know now is that it was keeping a consistent height off the ground to the top of the trees, so as it cleared the cliff area it got closer to the ground. I got as close as I could to it and starred at it intensely. It was spinning about one revolution per second and moved i! n a straight line at around five miles per hour. It was completely silent. There was something like a pipe that was on its side that was attached at a slight diagonal. I remember the color as a dark gray and also brown. I watched it as it moved away. Looking at it, I felt a strange sensation of an otherworldly presence. I noticed a part on top of the object that I did not see from the side. The fact that the entire object was spinning leads me to think that it may have been “morphing” or changing shape. The object moved away in a very strait and precise line. It was moving so steadily that it appeared to be shrinking in size opposed to getting farther away. I have never seen anything in the sky travel in such a precise strait line and so smoothly. It traveled across the valley and over the tops of the trees. That was it.

Bright white light, soundless hovering object near Borden Lake

I was driving to work on a country road near Borden Lake. I saw what I thought was a bright star on the horizon as the morning sky was still dark.

All of a sudden the star became larger and I realized that I was looking at a spot light coming towards me. It was right above the tree line. Then it was hovering above my neighbor's house as I drove by slowly. I could see colored lights in a cluster at the top and white lights at three corners.

At the time I thought it was a helicopter but there was NO SOUND and the trees were not moving. It scared me so I hit the gas and took off down the road.

When I got to the end of the road I looked back and saw a large glowing red orb on the ground in the woods. I called back to my husband at home and told him there had been a plane crash. He went outside and saw and heard nothing.

I am a professional person with a level head and to this day I have no idea what I saw. But it was not a helicopter and planes do not hover. Neither are silent.

UFO spotted over Garrison, Minnesota.

On the way home from a gas station, I looked up into the sky and saw two craft in formation that had lights on them in a triangle shape. I first thought they were C-17's or C-4's but they were moving too slow to be of those nor did they have any strobe lights! ALL military and non-military aircraft, HAVE to have strobe lights. The crafts were located just above Borden Lake in Garrison, Minnesota traveling south east. As far as the objects themselves go, I could not get a accurate discription on the shape of the crafts besides the lights on them, from what I could see they seemed to be cresent shaped. Once again, it was dark out and I could not get a accurate view on the shape of the hull of both craft.

mille Lacs Lake, Garrison MN, strange orange rectangle lights seen over lake.

We were sitting on the beach of mille Lacs Lake in Garrison MN, when a strange orange rectangle light came from the north going south right over the lake. Of course the beach was packed with people who were there to watch the fire works that were to be shot over the lake for the 4th of July.

Many people made comments about it as it was getting closer, then it turned and looked like it was going south east but straight up into space and then it disappeared!!

After the fire works show it might have been around 22:30 or later, but all of a sudden two more lights that looked the same as the first, came from the south going north.

In both cases there was no sound, no blinking lights that would indicate a human flying plane or helicopter, so I am sure it was UFO’s!!!

11 orange oval objects moving under perceived intelligent control

Wednesday evening, November 24, 2009; approximately 7:40 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Night conditions - clear; moon in crescent; Noted orange oval in eastern sky; moving south; distance appeared to be approximately 3 miles + in elevation; (I think it was probably at 50 degrees from the horizontal) orange oval moved southerly direction, followed by yet another orange oval; both ovals disappeared from sight; another orange oval then was noted moving from the northern part of the sky toward the south, this was followed closely by yet another oval; a group of 4 ovals then followed, they were not in a set formation and appeared to speed up and slow down independently of the other ovals. The ovals moved toward the south and then appeared to vanish. A single oval then moved quickly across the sky; it appeared to move more quickly than the preceding ovals; it moved the distance of my view (about 30 to 45 degrees) in about 10 seconds then disappeared; after this oval disappeared, an additional oval came across the sky not as fast as the previous one; the sky remained clear for about 5 minutes then I note! d 2 orange ovals moving from north to south; the lead oval appeared to slow down and the following oval almost seemed to merge with it but did not; then the lead oval turned easterly and disappeared; the last oval also changed direction to the east and eventually vanished from sight.

I have witnessed northern lights displays; these were not northern lights. They appeared too high in elevation and moved in such ways that they could not be aircraft on night maneuvers even though there is an air force base 50 miles north. I had lived in close proximity to the base and know what the aircraft look like in the dark. I at first thought it was space debris burning in the earth’s atmosphere but no space debris nor meteors could change directions as I witnessed. Space debris and meteors hit the earth; they don’t change direction and disappear. I also thought it was something to do with the Space Shuttle Atlantis that had launched the week before but logically it was too far north.

It has never been my intent to seek out UFOs. I enjoy star gazing but am only able to do so on rare occasions. This whole thing occurred while I had my dog out for her nightly rituals.

Possible UFO sighting in Garrison New York

I saw an array of red lights through the woods behind my house - hovering, some of the red lights were blinking. There was no sound. I couldn't see the outline of the object - just the lights but there is no tower or even any houses for miles. I came into the house after seeing the lights in a stationary position for about 5-10 minutes and when I came out again they were gone.I'm an RN - have never seen a UFO and am not even sure they exist.



NUFORC Note:

We received a similar report from a commercial/instrument pilot in Vero Beach, FL, for an object there, seen moving to the north. Sighting in FL occurred at 1920 hrs. on 26OC02. PD

21:30; 24 lights looking like satellites on a trajectory in steady succession, would verge off and make maneuvers, some parallel, one t

Just as the crescent moon was rising about 9:15 pm cdt off the shoulder of Venus and straight up from Paleades is where these white lights seemed to originate.

Then at a fairly steady pacing (I lost count after 24,) these white lights the size of a star or satellite, as if in orbit like a satellite, yet would go rogue and change direction and converge with each other, stay in place and then continue all heading in same direction to the right or south. Some would parallel along the same trajectory. Two of them were in tandem....it was so strange because I've always been looking and have not yet seen anything of this magnitude.

Then by 9:45 all movement stopped besides the few odd satalittes staying true to their rotation path. I was dumbfounded.

How would I find out if anyone else saw that? It was if armed forces doing drills. Yet, that wasn't in our atmosphere. It had to be in space, almost as if they were coming off the moon, yet the cloud cover obscured that origination point until later when the sky was clear and movement stopped could I verify the general area described above.

Two 15 year olds see flying disk in the Hudson Valley

I am trying hard to narrow down the date of this incident. I was about 15 years old and was walking with a friend on Manitou Rd. just west of Route 9D at about midnight. We were walking with our backs to the highway and noticed the sky light up. We both turned around and saw an object in the sky, about 1000 ft. up and half a mile south of us. I saw a white, glowing disk that stood still and made no sound. After a second or two, the disk moved closer in our direction and covered a half mile almost instantly, stopping on a dime with still no sound. After another second or two, it veered off to the east, in the area of South Mountain Pass.

I have been encouraged by books like Night Siege to think that sightings in the Hudson Valley have not been unusual.




NUFORC Note:

Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
