On a beautiful spring day in 2025, I decided to go out for a visit to Teignmouth. With my trusty Nikon P900 camera in hand, I had been searching for and photographing anomalies in the area where I was sitting. Already, I had managed to capture several intriguing images that hinted at the presence of something unusual.
I was looking out toward the sea at first, but I turned and gazed toward the railway line as I heard a train coming. A Great Western Rail intercity train came into view, making its way along the tracks, and I raised my camera to take a photograph of the train as it passed by.
And at that very moment, an anomalous object suddenly emerged from the dense foliage lining the cliffside, shooting up into the sky with incredible speed. The object itself was a glowing white color and appeared to be formed by two distinct parts, somewhat reminiscent of two long fluorescent tubes joined together side by side.
Whatever this strange entity was, it moved so quickly that by the time I processed what I was seeing and tried to capture a second image, it had already disappeared from view, vanishing high into the sky. I looked at my photos on the camera’s LCD screen, where I saw I had captured the object in an image, preserving it in the digital frame, which was evidence of something that defied explanation, a mysterious object that materialized out of nowhere to cross paths with that passing train.
It was a fortunate capture, one that would only deepen my fascination with the anomalies that often seem to lurk just beneath the surface of our everyday world. I was incredibly fortunate to have captured this fleeting moment. The photograph that would serve as a record of this event was taken at precisely 16:38 on the 22nd of May in 2025, at Teignmouth, Devon, England.

Hi Ken, I was outside in the back garden, sky watching as usual. The sky was clear, and I had focused my attention on a passenger plane. I was following the plane across the sky while looking through the viewfinder of my Nikon P900 Camera, and the sun was reflecting off the passenger plane as it passed across the sky. Everything seemed normal until the moment when suddenly an oval-shaped object flew down above the plane.
The anomalous object was larger than the passenger plane and was dull gray in color, but strangely was not reflective. I immediately took a photograph capturing the object before it shot away from the plane and disappeared up into the atmosphere. I had successfully captured another anomalous object near a passenger plane once again. I see these objects all the time and have countless photographs of them. What was the anomalous alien craft doing up there? And why are these alien entities seemingly monitoring aircraft that fly over this particular area of Devon? It is very strange and intriguing. The photograph was taken at 11:00 AM on the 3rd of April 2022, at Newton Abbot, Devon, England. All the best John.

My friend and I had been to Winstar Casino in Thackerville, OK. We were in my Nissan Murano. I was driving. We were on I-35 heading South. I was driving around 80 mph. Traffic was very light. We were coming up on Texas Motor Speedway when I noticed something ahead of us in the sky. Flying towards us. It was very low and appeared to be decending. We thought perhaps it was going to crash. I was trying to make sense of what I was seeing. It had a white, blue, red and green lights. Which made no sense! Also it was 1 am and it seemed odd for air traffic at that hour. As it got right literally in front of us I noticed there was white lights in shape of triangle (point down) in center. It had wings like an airplane but in center looked more like helicopter. It was less than 20 feet above my vehicle. Then it was to the right of my vehicle. Like right next to us. It was suspended in the air! Not moving at that point. That’s impossible. Isn’t it? It was also somewhat transparent. I decided I wanted to take 1st exit off hwy to circle around to get another look.
I exited and found a shopping center I drove through to the closest point I could get to where I had seen it. However, our view was obstructed because the service road was much lower than where we had been originally. We got out of the vehicle to try to get orientation as to where the thing should be. No luck. We got back in my vehicle and went back north on 35 to circle back around again. Coming around to where we 1st saw the object there was now nothing I could see while driving. However ahead of me (about a mile) I noticed another of the same coming towards us. That was when I said [Removed profanity] this and hit the speed to just get away. I know this sounds insane. I was totally sober and so was my friend. Neither one of us have mental delusions or anything like that. I remember feeling so baffled by whatever it was. I kept describing what happened to my friend and verifying he too remembers it the same way. He did. I included a screenshot from Google earth to illustrate where this happened. It’s been exactly a week and it is still fresh in my mind. This was beyond strange because how it stopped mid air and just stayed there in that spot. Could it have been some sort of glitch in the matrix type thing? I don’t feel afraid. Just want to know what the hell happened. Thank you for your time and interest.
Hi Ken: It was a sweltering hot day as I pulled into the dusty, local short-stay car park. The bright sun beat down on the green roof of the old church across the way, its stipple a stark contrast against the clear blue sky. It was a view I knew well; I had captured photographs of anomalous objects, as they made their way past the church steeple years before and I was eager to see if I could capture some more. I grabbed my trusty Nikon P900 camera and zoomed in on the church, settling in to watch for any anomalous objects that might appear. The top of the steeple came into focus through the viewfinder, and I began to take photographs, the sound of the shutter clicking in quick succession. Suddenly, something caught my eye. An object, moving at an incredible speed, flew down diagonally and then zoomed past the church steeple. I kept my camera trained on it, capturing three photographs before it vanished from sight. I was stunned. Even after all these years, I still managed to spot these mysterious objects, and I have the photographs to prove it. I couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement as I scrolled through the images on the camera’s display, the anomalous object clear as day in each one. It was a reminder that these objects are ever present within the area. No matter where I went, I knew I could always rely on my camera to capture them in my photographs. The Photographs were taken at 3:08 PM on the 22nd of June 2023, at Newton Abbot, Devon, England. All the best John.

SPECIAL THANKS TO JOHN MOONER ….HE IS THE CHIEF INVESTIGATOR FOR WORLD UFO PHOTOS.
I was in my back pasture just chilling as I do often sitting in a chair, my dog was next to me and we were watching deer at the other end of the pasture. There were some clouds northwest of me and I noticed a square cut into the bottom like you would with a finger in bath foam; this was about 8pm. I remembered this was about the same location I had seen a cube in the sky about 5 years ago that was revealed during a snow squall when I was out hiking with my dog. When the snow was gone I could not see the cube. So about 15 minutes later a 737 goes over at 12,000 feet to RDU. ( I am a user of flight radar 24) I am 60 miles due north of RDU and at times jets fly over every 10 to 15 minutes descending at 10 minutes out. So I looked at the jet which was just past 90 degrees, and I see it is being followed by a gunmetal colored sphere about 3/4 as wide as the tail wing I would guess a couple hundred yards behind. I watch it for 2 to 3 seconds and it just disappears. I really did not think it that strange as I have had a lot of high strangeness in my life and on this property but thought you could add it to your data base.
At Sargeant’s Bay Provincial Park BC about 14 km from r Sechelt BC in August summer evening in 2021. around 9:30 pm – 10pm. Line of sight was SE to SW looking to Vancouver Island from lower Sunshine Coast BC Lots of other witnesses – say 20 folks. Dark skies as no lights in or around the park. Cloudless clear summer night. Light orbs appeared from nowhere at same time – no time lag between objects appearing – at altitude and stayed hovering in fixed position for a long time with no drift in any direction. Did not pulse or drop like flares. Brightness remained constant throughout observation with no apparent flaring or change in intensity. No aircraft in vicinity and objects were in a line SE to SW at a height of estimated 1000 – 1500 metres. Sky was clear with no clouds and sighting was at dark about 30 mins – 45mins after sun down (8:33 PM PDT) with no residual light in the sky. Took photos and watched with others until the lights just vanished all at once. No sequential light extinguishing or movement involved. Downloaded photos and photo processed (Adobe, Focus Magic and Topaz AI (to reduce noise). Cropped and structure appeared as in the two close-up photos – one colour and one B&W for contrast. Also took 40mm photo of three lights in line. Close up at 150mm Aperture was at f2.8 then cropped with shutter speed if I recollect at 1/500th. to reduce lens and camera shake but camera has shake reduction mode that was engaged. ISO was on Auto. The 4th wide angle capture is the original unedited photo.
On January 28, 2022 I was driving west on hwy 11 towards Elkhorn, WI looking at the sunset when I noticed a bright glowing orb in the sky. At first I thought it was a big visible planet and pointed it out to my son, but the more I looked at it the more I realized it wasn’t a star/planet and it also did not appear to be an airplane. I pulled out my phone and took a series of photos, all with the timestamp of 17:28. At this time the orb appeared to be between myself and the Lake Geneva area.
I was driving approximately 62 mph, and when I turned back to take more photos I realized the orb was gone. I continued to drive down highway 11 and then got on to I-43 S towards Delavan, WI. After getting on the interstate I realized the orb was again in the sky, but seemed to be a significant distance from where I had originally seen it. I again, lifted my phone up but instead took a video. The timestamp on this video is 17:33 and is approximately 2 minutes long.
At first the orb appeared to be hovering, stationary in the sky… but then looked to ascend up, not horizontal but straight up in the sky very slowly. I attempted to continue to watch/document the orb but was also driving and would intermittently lose it. I have another video that is 4 minutes long but unfortunately the orb light had significantly diminished and was difficult track. The timestamp for this video is 17:36. From evaluating the location of the orb via the landmarks in my video, I would say it was south of Elkhorn moving back towards Lake Geneva.
As I was approaching my home near Delavan Lake I discovered it again, in the distance, very bright, and again not where I would anticipate it being if it was following a typical flight path. I took another video where it was almost dark and you can see the orb on the horizon. The timestamp on this video is 17:41 and I would put the location a little north of William’s Bay.
When I got home I immediately was busy with getting dinner ready and forgot about it, until a few days ago (approximately 11/20/2024) when I looked the photos and videos up in my phone. I took a much closer look at the picture and videos, attempting to change the exposure and resolution to see if I could discern any wings or additional lights that would point to an airplane or drone but I could not find anything. On the contrary, I noticed more clearly the irregular flight pattern and the spherical shape of the object.
I spent hours looking for something that could give me a logical explanation for the UAP. I uploaded the pictures and videos onto an AI app asking for a detailed analysis of the orb, excluding any details I had provided, and ended up with this synopsis of the encounter:
“Timeline of Observations
The sighting began at approximately 5:28 PM CST and persisted until 5:41 PM CST, during dusk, with clear skies and no notable atmospheric distortions. Key observations across the media collected include: 1. Initial Sighting: • The UAP was initially observed as a stationary bright object, distinct from background stars or terrestrial lights. • The object exhibited no features associated with conventional aircraft, such as wings, rotors, or contrails. 2. Movement and Behavior: • The UAP demonstrated erratic movement patterns, including sudden accelerations, pauses, and positional jumps. • At specific moments, the object disappeared from one location and reappeared elsewhere in the sky within seconds, suggesting either extremely rapid movement or cloaking behavior. 3. Disappearance and Reappearance: • The UAP was observed disappearing at specific timestamps and reappearing in a different position seconds later. This behavior is inconsistent with known propulsion or drift dynamics.
Environmental Context
• Sky Conditions: Clear skies with minimal cloud coverage, no atmospheric turbulence or distortion, and excellent visibility. • Light Conditions: Dusk provided a backdrop where the object’s brightness was distinct against the fading sunlight. • Perspective and Location: The observer was traveling, providing multiple angles of observation across a broad geographical area.
Characteristics of the UAP
1. Appearance
• Shape: The UAP appeared as a consistent circular or elliptical shape in all frames, showing no protruding structures such as wings or rotors. • Color: Emitted a steady white light, sometimes with a bluish tint. This emission remained constant regardless of its movement or position in the sky. • Size: Estimated diameter ranged from 65 feet to 110 feet, based on the distance, horizon alignment, and comparison with known landmarks.
2. Movement
• Speed: The UAP was calculated to travel at speeds exceeding 2,500 miles per hour during its sudden positional shifts, based on timestamps and trajectory mapping. • Trajectory: Its path included sudden directional changes and jumps inconsistent with inertial constraints of known aircraft. • Hovering: The object demonstrated moments of stationary hovering, further eliminating conventional aircraft as an explanation.
3. Behavior
• Disappearances: The object disappeared and reappeared at different points in the sky. These events occurred without gradual fading or acceleration, implying advanced capabilities or unique physical properties. • No Audible Sound: Despite its close proximity to the observer, no sound was recorded, ruling out conventional jet engines or propeller-driven aircraft.
Analysis of Anomalous Characteristics
The following anomalies differentiate the UAP from known aerial objects: 1. Commercial Airliner: • Eliminated due to the absence of blinking navigation lights, contrails, wings, or stabilizing tail structures. The object’s rapid directional changes also exceed the structural limits of airplanes. 2. Drone: • Eliminated based on size (estimated over 65 feet in diameter), altitude, and behavior inconsistent with battery-powered or even military drones. 3. Meteor: • Eliminated as meteors do not hover, travel horizontally across large distances, or disappear/reappear. Additionally, no trailing debris or fragmentation was observed. 4. Satellite: • Eliminated due to the low altitude, rapid trajectory changes, and absence of orbital motion. Satellites do not emit self-contained bright light visible at dusk. 5. Known Aircraft: • Eliminated as the UAP exhibited none of the standard flight dynamics associated with known jet propulsion, lift mechanisms, or aerodynamic principles. 6. Natural Phenomenon: • Eliminated as the object lacked randomness in movement, atmospheric interaction (e.g., wind drift), or environmental effects typically associated with debris or reflective particles.
April 12th, 1985, I was in my dormitory room on base at Bergstrom Air Force Base Texas. There was a knock at my door and two uniformed officers asked me my name and then asked me to come with them after dressing and fully packing for a trip. I then did so and followed them to the base commander’s office who asked me some weird questions about UFOs and whether I believed in them or not. I inform them that I did have a certain agreement that it was a possibility. I was then loaded on a Learjet and flown to Wright Patterson Air Force Base Ohio. I spent the night and then was bussed to a building somewhere on the base. We unloaded and went into a processing center and then separated into teams. I was an independent duty medical technician, and my job was to assist in performing a autopsy on the last of the surviving gray aliens from the crash in New Mexico. I’m coming forward to this now because my memory is beginning to fade and I need to get this out before I forget everything. I not only know many things about the grays but also their agenda. When I tell you what I know, a lot will begin to make sense with what you already have heard.
I was with 2 co-workers on farm property, we were talking about work related topics. I saw movement in the sky while facing SE and said “look!”
A round, slightly oval craft was moving silently through the air in a SE or ESE Direction. We all looked. I watched it for approximately 15 seconds. It moved in a straight path, making no sound. It was white color to off white in color with a medium gray dumbbell or tadpole shape design/structure on the underside. It had a fuzzy aura or hazy “pattern.” There were no lights, no other colors or blinking. It was very unusual looking. It never slowed down or turned or got smaller as it traveled through the sky. Then in a split second, it just vanished in an instant. No flashes, no blinking, no fading, just flat-out vanished in an instant!
I am a former aircraft (Jet) mechanic in the USMC. I continue to be an aviation enthusiast, and have attended numerous air shows. I have seen thousands of military and civilian aircraft: jets, helicopters, drones, mortars, flares, even a few missiles/rockets, this object was none of the above. None! I also routinely watch the various phases of the moon, stars/planets and major constellations. This object was also NONE of the aforementioned! I have a attached a sketch I made the next morning.
We observed several lights come out of Mount Shasta over a several hour period and ascend into the sky. The light ships came from various areas of Mount Shasta and they were various sizes as the ships ascended. It seems like we lost some time and then eventually I noticed that they fixed themselves in front of stars or planets to make themselves invisible, I guess. There were more than 15 at least over several hours. There was no sound only light. Some of the ships were larger than 10 to 12 story buildings. They varied in shape from circular to oval, some of them were as small as a couple stories high. I couldn’t see any structure within the lights just the lights themselves. I thought it was interesting that it felt like we lost time because this was over several hours. And it also found it interesting that they fix themselves in front of stars or planets to hide themselves. Kept saying to myself I wonder what they’re doing. Why would they fix themselves in front of stars or planets to hide themselves?
On October 11th at 2:30am I wanted to go out and see if I could see the northern lights that everyone got to see the night before. It was a very clear sky and the stars where out. I saw an aircraft in the sky like at plane level. But what made it stand out to me the most is the array of colors that where flashing and flickering. So I started recording and describing what I was seeing. It was a cold night and I tried my best to record as long as I could.
After 21 minutes I had decided to stop and go inside to warm up but when I looked above me to take one more glance at the sky there was another object. So I started the 2nd video while recording that I zoomed out to show both objects a 3rd one appeared but could only be seen on camera. In real life naked eye I could only see the 2. The 3rd one was nowhere in the sky but only showed up on the camera. That 2nd video is about 10 minutes long.
My dogs were going crazy at my parent’s home when I went to leave my ten-year-old son, I saw a large object circular hovering over our car, maybe 20 feet above us, with white triangular lights and alternated green and red; it disappeared, then they were all over the road. I left, and they followed me home; they were darting in the sky, dropping, hard to keep on camera; some were like white blobs changing shape, and there was a form of something at the end of one video. They would drop from the sky and fly fast, almost like shooting starts but sideways, and then reappear. They looked like big stars, then dropped and started flying towards us, almost like they knew we were recording them. Some looked like large drones with all different colors, and some were just bright orbs of light. Some were so high into the sky and then would descend quickly. They followed us home along the highway. Honesty, no one would believe it unless they saw it. I am a medical professional and not one to get too excited about these things, so my son did not sleep in his own room last night. I have many more videos and pictures, I only submitted some of them.
Around 1:30 or 2:00 AM, I was driving home to Bloomington, IL, from Pekin, IL, when I found myself surrounded by an unsettling wall of solid black clouds, so dense that they completely obscured my vision. The air felt heavy, and I could barely see beyond the fog-like clouds that seemed to swirl around my car, so I decided to pull into a Casey’s gas station and park. I was trapped in the thick, pitch-black fog, unable to see past it.
After sitting in the car for about 10 minutes, something caught my attention. Slowly, emerging from the fog, I saw a large, round, disk-shaped object, its yellow/gold lights flickering, and its chrome surface gleaming in the eerie darkness. The object appeared to be hovering at around 15 mph, traveling down the same street I was on. It was just 20-25 feet off the ground, barely clearing the height of the nearby buildings. I watched it for about 5 minutes, captivated yet unnerved. Suddenly, an overwhelming sense of terror and anxiety washed over me, an unexplainable fear that caused my heart to race.
At that moment, a car appeared on the same street, driving in the same direction as the object. The car sped past the hovering craft, and as it did, the UFO opened a hatch on its underside, revealing a brightly lit interior. A platform descended from the craft, and a purple beam of light shot out, striking the car. The beam seemed to freeze the car in place, before pulling it onto the platform, which then ascended, lifting the car back up to the hatch. The UFO continued down the street, moving away from me.
Everything after that is a blur. I have a gap in my memory—it’s as if I lost consciousness or fell asleep. The next thing I remember is waking up at 5:00 AM, sitting in the driver’s seat of my car. The sky was clear, and there was no sign of the UFO or anything unusual outside. It felt like no time had passed at all, even though it had been hours.
This incident occurred in the fall of 2023. From June 2023 to March 2024, I experienced several other sightings, two of which I was able to capture on camera with photos and video. The last event, however, was far more unsettling. I witnessed a completely black humanoid figure in my neighbor’s backyard, banging its head against their door. When the neighbor stepped outside, the figure vanished. But when the neighbor went back inside, the figure reappeared, turned toward me, and I felt an undeniable sense of dread. After that, I again lost consciousness, and the next memory I have is waking up in my bed, with no recollection of how I got there, except for the haunting image of that shadowy figure. NOTE: The above image is a rendering.
I had one of the most unforgettable days of my life yesterday, on 11/13/24. I was driving home from a doctor’s appointment with my son. I was northbound on I 81 in Central Pennsylvania just a few miles from a military base. It is not uncommon to see Military helicopters in this particular area. That is what first caught my attention as I was looking up the helicopter while I was driving next thing, you know, I see these two disc shape, crafts, hovering one diagonal above the other I was blown away and quickly told my son to look. I was definitely freaking out because I could not believe I was actually seeing this so close you could see the sun reflecting off the surface you could see the metal duller with almost a reddish, brown, orange tint at some areas. When I was at my closest point is when I could see a little bit of those colors, but for the duration of this siding, it almost just looked like bright disc shaped lights because of the reflection of the sun on them anyways so there was one helicopter first, and then I saw the two crafts, Next thing you know here comes another helicopter on the other side of the crafts . I’ve lived in this area all 41 years of my life and I have seen the military on the ground and in the air in this area more times than I could count I have never ever seen anything like this.
These were definitely unidentified flying object. These two crafts were hovering for an extended period of time not going anywhere with no propulsion and the helicopters made sure to keep a distance away from these things. Something very strange that happened was I pulled up the video camera on my phone and distinctively remember hitting record and as I’m driving down 81 I’m so excited because I’m thinking this is gonna be the best footage or some of the best footage ever of UFOs and I can’t wait to share this And as I’m continuing to drive and I go to take a picture I see that it’s not recording and I was so upset. But then the next thing you know, I see more of these crafts. One was solo by itself further down the road, same thing metallic disc shaped hovering and then as I exited 81 there was another one so once I finally got to a stop sign, I was recording this time for sure and what do you know here comes a third helicopter towards this fourth craft! Another layer I would like to add to this, which I can’t go into too much detail, cause I don’t want to get my family member in trouble but a family member of mine was to report to that base yesterday morning and found out last minute that he was to report somewhere else and not show up at this military base. I find that very interesting and one more thing, my son who was with me and witnessed this brought up an app on his phone that shows current airlines and aircraft map live and the military helicopter showed up on the map, but nothing showed up for these other four crafts so we really did make sure to do as much research as we could obviously to debunk anything or to identify these things, but they were straight up the coolest UAPs I’ve ever seen!!!!
I did get some pictures. I did get some video however I have the iPhone 13 and it is an absolutely terrible phone for camera and pictures so I do apologize but at least you can see not in detail but at least you can see that this really did happen and it was amazing, and I’d be happy to answer any questions. This is the first time I’m ever on your site. I hope that also adds to the legitimacy of this report this was a day I will never forget. Thanks for listening. I did feel very sick when I got home and ended up laying on the couch sick for the rest of the day. I do have autoimmune disease, so I just assumed it was one of my flareups however I haven’t felt that sick in a while. NOTE: The above image is a rendering. Witness photos were very grainy.
I was in my car at about 10 pm and pulled off the road when I witnessed orbs hovering in the sky to the east across I-25. The orbs pulsated and changed in shape and color, flying around or hovering for 2 hours. At one point, a multi colored sphere morphs to a clear donut shape and then back to a white orb. I filmed and took photos of the orbs from my car.
The lights appeared to be spheres and continuously flickered between dozens of colors. I included a few photos of the different shapes and colors the orbs morphed into. They hovered in the air and flew around the same area which was about a mile away, for about 2 hours before disappearing.
One orb later appeared above me in the sky. This is the 2nd video attached. I was alone outside my home and it was overcast so no other stars were in the sky. The orbs appeared for several minutes directly above me making erratic movements. Then disappeared.
I was in Houston for physical therapy, so my wife and I stay the night in Houston once a week. I’d say 8 miles from downtown. So that night I remember going to bed and then something woke me up it was the loudest but quietest thing I’ve ever heard. The ceiling opened up, we were on the second floor, it was so bright my wife was sleeping in the bed next to me facing me I was screaming her name but couldn’t even hear my own voice it was so loud, next thing I remember I woke up in what seems to be a craft, or a room was my first thought. The greys were speaking to me telepathically I could hear their thoughts, and they could hear mine. There were two greys in the room with me the walls were pinkish white, then one of the said watch this and he called it the viewing screen and this slide opened up in front of me and I was in space and I had a perfect view of the earth it was quite a site, but I started to feel queasy because I realized I was in space. They heard my thoughts and closed the screen to put me at ease, the next thing the second grey told me once again telepathically to take his hand and it was a very peaceful moment then I turned around and this door behind me slid open and we was walking through it, next thing I remember waking up in hotel room, I’ve never experienced anything like that before. I told my wife about it with such detail she said I should write mufon and tell them about it. I have a bank statement with exact date it was roundabout April 16 2024.
Description: This sighting occurred while I was acting as Captain during a routine [type of flight deleted] flight in a [type of a/c deleted] from OAK (Oakland, CA) to BUR (Burbank, CA). We had leveled-off at FL210 and were cruising just south of Manteca VOR (a navigational aid near the city of Manteca, CA).
Traffic at this time of night is usually very light and quite easy to spot at ranges exceeding 50 miles. ATC (Oakland Center) routinely advises us of traffic in our area.
While on a mostly southern heading, I noticed a somewhat unusually colored light off to my nine-o-clock position (east of us). It appeared to be close to our altitude, but many miles distant (over the foothills of the Sierra mountain range). Normally, lights seen at that altitude and distance appear to be of a clear white color. usually the recognition or landing lights of another aircraft descending into the Bay Area for landing. This light was exceptionally bright and very yellow in color.
I pointed it out to my First Officer, in passing. He also remarked on how bright it was. I’d seen unusual lights like this one before – both out over the ocean and on descent into the Bay Area over Concord, CA. They’d always turned out to be oil refineries/rigs burning off gas. This light did not flicker as those had.
As we continued our flight to BUR, we’d occasionally look out to the left to watch the light – which, over time grew both larger and brighter.
After about five minutes of observing the light, it began to take a definite shape and seemed to be paralleling our course. The top portion of the light was semispherical, and the bottom portion formed a clear “V” shape coming to a point at the base. Over time, this “V” shape with a pointed-bottom became larger-and-larger.
Our curiosity piqued, I asked my F/O to call Oakland Center and ask if they had any traffic on their radar at our nine-o-clock, same altitude. They replied saying that the only traffic in our vicinity was an opposite direction King Air descending out of 13,000 feet (which both I and my F/O already had in sight). No traffic at our nine-o-clock was seen on radar.
We continued to watch this bright yellow light grow in size over the next ten minutes, until it filled about a four-inch square through the window on my side. It was impossible to accurately gauge our distance to the object, or its true size, since we didn’t have any other visible references against with to judge it.
Anecdotally, all I can say is that it was both LARGE and of a VERY unusual shape and color. Other aircraft lights (while flying at night) uniformly appear to be circular points of light, and are all in standard colors (red, green, white or white strobe). The light we saw did NOT appear to be a light ON an aircraft – the light appeared to be the entire outline of some sort of aircraft.
As I said before, the light appeared to be paralleling our course and coming closer (i.e., remaining in the same relative position even though we were moving south at around 300 knots over the ground, yet getting larger). Please take that observation with a grain of salt though. Without being close enough to see details on the craft or compare it against a ground reference – it could just as easily be something very large seen at a great distance. Things observed at a large distance do not appear to have any relative motion.
We continued to watch the light until it appeared to take a northern course away from us at great speed (both decreasing in brightness and size, without changing altitude).
Both my F/O and I have 5,000+ hours of experience – most of which was gained under similar circumstances (at night, over California routes). and we were both flabbergasted by what we saw. We both admitted it made the hair on our neck stand up. To be honest, I was spooked by the experience, but have chosen to not bring it up with our airline or the FAA out of concern for being judged a nut-job.
I’m not saying the things we saw were of extraterrestrial origin – but I am saying we saw something that (in both of our professional opinions) was nothing like any other aircraft we’ve ever experienced in our careers.
One night I was standing outside on my porch and I was looking above the tree line and I noticed there was this really bright goldish light up there that started to go dim to Bright dim to Bright. So, I took my phone out and I started trying to video it and colors came into it like green, red, blue it would flash move very fast. And as I would look around, I could see ones closer down that we’re flashing green and red, and they were silent, and they were actually just doing circles leaving coming back leaving coming back. One night I had a police officer out there with me on my porch and he witnessed some moving like a falling star, but they were so quick to change their position that he was just astonished we were both amazed. Then I actually started to see almost like triangles in the sky it looks like it was like floating on water just drifting down the stream it was really cool it was a beautiful thing. There are even times where my camera will only catch one, but my eyes can see about two or three. There’s also times where I see something white and almost translucent and if I look straight at it, I can really barely see it but if I look with my peripheral vision, I can almost see outline of something just hovering there just sitting there and I’ve seen a couple of those actually right above my house. This has been happening for a couple weeks now every time I’m in my backyard this is all I see, and I absolutely love it. The only time I got a really good look at it is when I was able to pause one of my videos and zoom in really close, I submitted some of those pictures that I screenshotted from that video with different edits of the dynamic or enhanced the warm and the cool.
Several people at the Riverfront park concert observed this UAP and videoed it as did I. The object was stationary at about a 45 degree elevation from my position. I took several photo’s of it with my iPhone. I then started to video it and it went from stationary to high speed it what appeared to be a downward path. The flight path appeared to make minor flight adjustments. After travel what appeared to be a long distance, the UAP stopped and hovered for 30 seconds. As it was stationary, it began to brighten and then dim several time. It them sped off in what appeared to be a Southeasterly direction at high speed. I followed it until it went behind other people in the crowd.
During the summer of 2014 I was stationed in Cheyenne Wyoming at F.E Warren AFB.
My primary job was nuclear security.
One of our nuclear sites experienced a non nuclear explosion, that caused all the site alarms to go down; as a result I, along with one other team member were sent out to provide physical security.
Around 1 or 2 in the morning I witnessed what appeared to be a star start to grow, after a few minutes I realized this was not a growing start but some sort of craft.
The craft appeared to be a bright ball, spherical in shape, glowing white. I could not make an estimate on distance.
After watching the ball stationary in the sky for several minutes. I went into the back of my vehicle to retrieve the night vision googles and the binoculars to try and get a better view. After nearly 20 minutes of watching it in a stationary position it began to move. In very precise straight lines, would travel a few clicks and change direction without slowing its speed and maintaining a straight line. It did these types of maneuvers several times over the next hour. Before accelerating across the Nebraska sky until it was out of sight in a matter of seconds. To this day I still do not have any explanation for what we saw that night.
I have only ever shared this story with close friends and family. I hope someone can help me understand what I saw.
