Location: West Henrietta, NY, USA

Shape: Fireball


I walked outside and saw what appeared to be an orange twinkling star like thing hovering over something. It was much lower than any plane would fly and my initial thought was why is that star so large and orange? I have never seen anything like this in all of my 35 years on this earth. I cannot stop wondering what I saw in the sky.i stared at it fascinated by the size color and twinkling.

Duration: 3 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Henrietta, NY, USA

Shape: Rectangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

I saw a rectangular craft on March 6 of this year, which was not a passenger plane.

On March 6, 2013 at approximately 11 pm I was traveling south on Interstate 390, south of Rochester, NY when off to the south west I noticed an odd object in the sky, with a strobe on the right side but no visible landing lights or navigation lights. There was a row of lights on the side facing me.

This object was moving slowly to the west and was likely two or three miles away initially. I was moving about 50 mph due south. As I proceeded I got to see the object, which was losing altitude, from behind and below and I was stunned at the shape. It was rectangular, with no lights visible on the side facing away from me. The shape was completely inconsistent with a passenger aircraft. (See my video on you-tube for a simulation). I never saw any landing lights or navigation lights, just the row of lights on the three sides and the one strobe light. Finally, the object appeared to be turning north right as I lost sight of it.

I would estimate about a 4:3 ratio of length to width.

On the night of August 21st 2010, roughly around 1:30am heading home after work. I saw a bronze sphere in the eastern sky. I pulled up to the light at Calkins Rd & East Henrietta Rd. I was turning right to head south on East Henrietta when the sphere pulsated 3 times then darted off to the north quicker then I could even keep up with.

This object was first thought to be a star and or Planet. Honestly I didn't even believe what i saw, felt like people would laugh. Sense that day I've seen even stranger things. Just last night I was awake watching TV. Decided to step out on my upper apartment deck when I saw this shooting star, no later then five minutes out of no where 3 double rotor unmarked choppers fly over my complex. Get this, they didn't make a sound! The sound they gave off was like driving with a sun roof open and a passenger window open. Anyway that's about it.

Bright Pulsing object appears then disappears.

I was pulling into the parking lot of my school with a friend. We had just gotten ourselves food and within five minutes of parking I look to the left of us in the sky. The object at first seemed to be a star, it was dusk so I generally tend to look out at the sky. I notice this increidbyl bright "star". I tell my friend to look at it and he too thinks its abnormally bright. The object then begins to dim to the point where we can barely see its there, then immediately it gets bright again.

I would say this happened for about 5 minutes or so when to the left another one appears and begins to do the same thing. Now a lot of people said to me that it was a helicopter or a satellite. I have never seen a helicopter flash so brightly and then another just appear, and satellites move across the sky very fast. Anyways the two pulse for about a minute then completely disappear. Since then I hav'nt seen anything like it or heard of anything like it.




NUFORC Note:

Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. Possible tumbling booster, giving off an intermittent flash?? PD

Occurred: 2005-07-01 01:30 Local
Reported: 2005-07-01 10:17 Pacific
Duration: 2 minutes
No of observers: 0

Location: Henrietta, MO, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

Circular object hovers over house, changes colors and disappears in Missouri.

Three of us were outside at night. There was no drinking or intake of drugs whatsoever. We are guessing this took place around 1:30 am but do not know the time for sure.

The object was circular in shape. The object hovered about 50 yards over a house in Henrietta. The middle was dark red (lit up) and the outside trim changed from light blue to dark blue. It stayed in one spot for about six seconds and then moved to the left for about six seconds then right for about five or six seconds and then it took off to the northeast which is where it came from and was out of sight. This all happened at unbelieveable rates of speed. When the object took off it did wake birds that were in the trees.

It was a long time ago, but the memmory is still clear. My brother and I were star gazing and saw what appeared to be a LARGE vehicle that had the appearance of a conventional aircraft but it had 6 sets of wings and was dotted with lights around the perimiter of the craft. It was also silent and very close.

The sighting took place around 1980, but is still etched in my mind and will be forever. My brother and I would be outside every night to look for unusual things in the sky. One night just before dark on a warm summer evening with no clouds,we were looking at the apex of the sky when all of a sudden a huge craft floated silently ovrhead. We were both stunned at what we were seeing, our jaws dropped in awe. The craft appeared to a normal convetional aircraft at first but then we realised it was no air plane. The object had 6 sets of wing like appendages and the whole exterior of the craft was dotted with white lights and what appearerd to be a runway of sorts in the center. The object moved slowly over head and was completely silent. the oject also gave the appearance of being somewhat translucent,Im not sure how to explain it. It was just light enough to see the object so it could have been a reflection of some kind. I was about 18 years old at the time and my brother would have been around 20. We never reported this untill now for fear of riddcule. We did however tell our parents and some friends but they only laughed. I feel it important to note that there were no drugs or alcohol involved in the sighting. Please let me know if anyone else has seen an object like the one described in this report. this has been on my mind for a long time. Please let me know if you need additional information.
