This red light was so red I have NEVER seen anything like it before very weird.

Very large, bright white light seen raidly descending to the northwest.

I was walking west at 8:10 ((sic. p.m.) cst when I observed a very bright, round white light in the northwest sky rapidly descending from 30 degrees above the horizon to disappearing behind the horizon. The white light was very much brighter than the many stars visible on this clear, crisp night. The light was also very much brighter than an airplane passing by in the west sky.

Duration: 4 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: New Berlin, WI, USA

Shape: Circle


Large red-orange disc moving at steady speed on 5/20.

At 23:30, moon was full. Two witnesses observing the full moon noticed a large (1cm at arm's length) deep orange-red circle moving slowly and steadily from 270 degrees to 90 degrees. The lights did not modulate, fade, change or blink. The object was larger than an aircraft.

No noise was noted. This was in a rural area and noise pollution is minimal; visibility is quite good. The object did not deviate from its course, change speed, appear to move closer or farther away.

The transit of the object was too slow to match a typical satellite, was in the wrong part of the sky for solar reflection and was a color that witnesses have not seen on aircraft, meteorites, satellites or any other common phenomena. The object took no less than 3 minutes to transit 90 degrees of the sky.

Two fireballs Northern Wisconsin streak across night sky

One orange, flaming fireball crossed the sky to the North. Within some time (10 minutes), a second fireball crossed the sky, in the same pathway. It burnt out sooner than the first, which passed from one horizon to the other.

It was moving faster than any aircraft, had no flashing lights, maintained the same speed and brightness which was fire-like. The sky was clear, stars were visible, behind the objects minimal clouds.

Circle orange light traveling at an high altitude from south to north

Orange circle light about the size of a dime traveling from south to north just west of our position at 9:20 pm.

Appeared at about a 45 degree angle and also disappeared at a 45 degree angle in the horizon which tells me it was extremely high up, similar to a satellite.

We saw another orange circle light about 35 min. later traveling in the same direction, just east of our position.

Saw 1 more orange circle light about an hour later traveling from SW to NE. This one went directly over us. When directly over us it looked like a white dot about the size of a pin point for about 2 seconds then turned orange again.

Each occurrence lasted 45 sec. to a minute. We also saw another on July 5th at 9:23 pm traveling south to north and another on July 6th at roughly 10:00 pm traveling from south to north and turned east just south of our position.

It was clear each night we saw these orange circle lights. No sound was heard either.

Red & white lights in shape of a triange in the sky

I was turning into the Target store parking lot in New Berlin, WI when I looked up over the trees and saw 4 lights in the shape of a triangle. Three of the lights were red and one was white. It hovered in the sky, and one of the lights disappeared for a few moments, then reappeared. At first I thought it was radio towers but then realized that the closest radio towers were in the opposite direction. It was a very curious event. No airplane behaves in such a manner as what I saw.

4 Red/Orange Triangular shaped lights merge into a single light

My wife was driving home and turned onto our street and noticed a group of red/orange lights ahead of her in the southern sky. She pulls into our driveway and watches these lights for a few minutes, not understanding what they could be.

She then runs into the house telling me to come outside. As soon I get outside, I noticed 5 lights total, 4 red/orange lights forming a triangle, hovering and silent. The 5th light was a separate object and moving just next to the triangular craft.

My wife said 2 other objects flew off in the first few minutes before I got outside. I think there were 4 craft total.

I would guess they were less than a mile away, to the southwest and approximately 500-2000 feet altitude. If you held your hand up to the sky and made a V with your 2 fingers, that's about how big the triangular craft was.

What I noticed about the color of the lights is that technically they were not red/orange. They were orange one second and red the next. It would change between the 2 colors but I can see how people would just say reddish orange.

My wife kept asking me over and over - "Are these UFO's" and after about 5 minutes, the 4 lights making up the triangular craft went into a bit a dance for about 2 seconds and formed into a single red and orange light now.

Now there are 2 craft, 2 lights. Before, it was 5 lights, 2 craft.

Then both lights just started to move again and headed northwest. In just another minute or 2 , they were gone.

Orange glowing sphere over New Berlin Wisconsin

We were going to the 4th of July festival and had just parked.

We saw an orange/red sphere rising up slowly as if it were a helicopter and then hover. It seemed to almost be glowing, but the brightness was pulsating. While we were observing this a group of people behind us spotted it too. We were able to watch it for about a full minute when it zoomed off so fast that it disappeared within seconds. I would guess it was a few miles away.

Starburst over New Berlin

We were coming out of a pub located in a shopping mall just after midnight. We watched a formation of 3 starburst shaped craft hovering in formation just above the Sprint store across the street. They seemed to move back and forth slightly for just over 10 minutes, then, suddenly, they moved rapidly upward out of sight at an unbelievable rate of speed.

All 3 of us observed the same thing. It was not a normal aircraft.

Bright light with flashing red and blue lights underneath. Moved in a circular motion. Red flash across sky directly underneath.

My husband went outside with the dogs around 20:45 on the date mentioned. He called me to come outside to look at something. When I came out, he pointed to the sky and stated this figure, that resemled a very bright star, was making a circular pattern in the sky.

I ran back in the house to find my camera to try to get a better look with a zoom lens. I looked at it closer and noticed red and blue flashing lights at the base of the figure. While I was watching, it made no sudden movements but directly underneath it, I saw a fast moving red light flash across the sky and disappear.

My daughter had asked what we were looking at so we showed her. She said that when she arrived home about and hour and a half prior, she saw the light and she and her Aunt had dismissed it as a planet or star. After she said this, we all went back inside, so she wouldn't be frightened.

Around 21:15 my husband looked outside again and the figure had disappeared from the sky.

Shape: Disk
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

Three disc shaped objects with 2 C Shaped formations extending from each side. Objects were hovering motionless & in an instant vanished.

My wife was driving west on Hwy 43 from Milwaukee to New Berlin. She observed three silvery blue objects,each with two orange C-Shaped formations extending from the sides. The three objects were in a trinangular configuration. The report from Mosinee,10/1/98, describes the same type object seen by my wife. She had the objects in view for approx. 7 minutes. The three discs remained motionless for the duration of sighting. She exited the highway still observing the three discs. Her view of the objects was momentarily blocked by trees upon turning onto the road to our home. When her view was unobstructed she looked back for the objects but they had vanished. My five year old daughter also saw the the objects. She asked if they were ghosts in the sky. This sighting visibly scared my wife, who up until this sighting, has never reported seeing any such phenomena.

I was on my way to work the night shift as a nurse in a local nursing home. I was traveling 35 miles per hour going east. I immediatly noticed what at first appeared to be a very bright star low on the horizon.The object remained stationary and as I approached the definate V-shape became very clear. the object had 4 or 5 white lights on each arm of the V, totalling 8 or 10 lights in all. I travelled approximatly 10 blocks before no longer being able to see it as I passed it. As it was now behind me I continued on to work. This road was very well travelled and I am sure someone else must have seen this also as it was so low as to be the size of my thumbnail with individual light clearly visable.

Large, slow moving craft, above the clouds, blinked out like a lightbulb before reaching the horizon

NEW BERLIN, Wisconsin , July 4th,1960 I'm surprised that no one has reported the BIG UFO sightings from 1960 in Wisconsin . The first one occurred on the evening of July 4th, 1960 at dusk while we were standing high on a hill in New Berlin, WI waiting for the fireworks to start. The sun had gone down. We could see spotlights searching the skies over Milwaukee about 15 miles away. There were some clouds in the sky, but not many. All of a sudden, I saw movement over my head. I looked straight up and a saw a white circular craft moving slowly from behind me from south toward the north. It moved very slowly. It was above the clouds. I double checked to see if there was a possibility of the searchlights from Milwaukee to be making a search way out here in New Berlin, but it wasn't. The white craft was above the clouds. It was about the size of a quarter held at arm's length. It moved slowly toward the north, never deviating from its course and never changing speed ... very slow. The strange thing was that before it got to the horizon, it blinked off like a light bulb. I called my sister on the telephone who had been about 25 miles away and she said that she had seen the same thing, so we reported it to the Hynek Institute in Chicago, giving a written report within the week. Hundreds of people have had to have seen that, but we never met any. The very next day, on July 5th, during the afternoon, there was another sighting by hundreds of people on the Lake shore of Lake Michigan. I just happened to be standing inside the house by the window facing north. Off to the east I saw a greenish white craft going downward towards the north quite aways off. It was about the same size as the one I had seen the night before. I found out the next day in the newspaper that hundreds of people had witnessed the UFO dive into Lake Michigan with an aircraft chasing it over the lake which had been scrambled by Billy Mitchell airfield. It was published in the two Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel newspapers the next day, but researchers have not been able to find it in the newpaper archives.
