Orange circle shaped light hovered and then moved across sky

My husband and I went out for a walk in our neighborhood. I always look up into the sky and star gaze and as I did this I saw a bright orange circle coming toward us. It was about the size of a low flying plane but was completely circular, bright orange like fire, and silent.

I said, "look a ufo!" My husband said "what is that?!". Then it stopped and hovered right in our line of vision. My husband kept trying to come up with explanations for what it was. A Chinese lantern, drone. But it wasnt. It had stopped! It was early, only about 9:15, so we could see people in their houses and I wanted to call to them to come see the ufo! After watching it for about a minute it moved in a different direction from how it was traveling before, to the right and traveled across the sky into the clouds out of site.

I have no doubt what we saw was the real thing. My husband is a huge skeptic and he said now he is a believer! The whole time we witnessed this I kept saying, "see I told you! It's a ufo! They're here!"

Bright stationary object in sky north of Mohawk, AZ

While driving east on interstate 8 we saw a very bright white or sliver cylindrical object hovering in the sky about 10 o'clock high. It remained motionless above the mountains which we estimated were 3-5 miles north of Mohawk. We drove along I-8 for another 15-20 minutes passing through the security checkpoint on I-8. The object remained visible as we continued along I-8.

Finally, we decided to try and get a closer view so we left I-8 at exit 102 and went north as far as the road goes.

At that point it was about 17:10 and the object was still clearly visible. As the sun went down the brilliance of the object progressively declined until it was no longer visible at ~17:30. We tried to take pictures with our low resolution phones but we were still too far away and by then the brilliance of the object had declined.

Based upon the first sightings form the car we estimate the length of the object to be large...at least the length of a cruise ship and its high r! eflectance (brilliance in sunlight) could only be consistent only with a very highly mirror-like surface.

3 Golden Lights, Appear and Disappear

My daughter and I had just gotten in the car. It was about 7:15 pm. Still sitting in the driveway, I looked out of my window - northern horizon. I saw 2 golden glowing lights that I thought was an airplane. I said to my daughter, "Look at that airplane!" She turns her head to look, the light on the left dims and disappears, then just as it disappeared another appeared directly over the remaining light on the right. Then I said "What are those planes doing?" At that time my daughter and I both saw the upper light dim and disappear, the final light instantly disappeared.

We can see the beautiful night sky each night and we see lots of planes, meteors etc. But the location of these lights were out of the ordinary. Its the darkest part of the viewing sky for us, not many stars and even fewer aircraft is visible. It was a totally clear night.

White circular saucer, flashed an intense bright light, then disappeared.

At about 7:30pm I was observing a hawk flying when I inadvertently caught glimpse of a UFO, steadily flying in a straight line. With it having no vapor trail, no blinking lights like a normal plane or anything...I watched it travel in a straight line for about a minute, then it flashed an extremely bright white light all around it and it was gone.

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

A stationary bright light appeared and started getting closer, than reversed and quickly moved away.

While attending a professional party and camp-out, we (my wife, a friend and myself, all mid forties to mid fifties) were observing the sky to view constellations using a reference book our friend had recently obtained. We also like to look for satellites and shooting stars. The evening was about 70 degrees with humidity around 65%. We were approximately five miles from the nearest village, so light interference was minimal. The sky was clear. My wife and friend had gone into an open field ahead of me. As they were looking into the sky nearly directly overhead, they observed a greenish colored light, slightly bigger than most stars, but at quite a distance. No sooner had both of them spotted this when three white lights came out of the one green light and headed in different directions moving faster than satellites would and then all four quickly disappeared. They informed me of this observation upon my arrival only a minute or less later, but I gave it little thought. We continued watching the stars and saw a few shooting stars when we all turned to look at the north-east sky, not far from directly overhead when we saw a light which I initially labeled landing lights. Very shortly after saying that, I realized the light was not moving in any direction, but was coming closer and getting brighter. It had the appearance of a bright car headlight coming at us from a distance. Just about the time I thought the light was getting close enough and bright enough to almost cast a shadow, it immediately started moving away, but still not moving in any linear fashion. It became so dull in appearance that it resembled the satellites we've observed on numerous occasions. At that time, it began moving in a south-easterly direction much faster than any satellite until it disappeared. All three of us stood in awe of this site, not knowing what to think at that time. This particular event lasted about one minute from the time the light was first observed.
