Multi colored object flies down toward ground then back up very fast

Entering this report for my sister:

I was driving on the road at 50th St East going toward Avenue K. I had just passed Ave L and a small house on the side of the road to my right (in the direction toward 60th). Through my peripheral vision I could see an object moving quickly toward the ground in a straight line. I turned to look at it since it caught my attention. The object was emanating many colors, I couldn’t tell what color it was exactly, it was as if it was cycling through many colors at once. There was no point from which lights were coming, the whole object was THAT color or colors all at once as it moved, it wasn’t SHINING and it didn’t project any beams of light. The object looked to be round in shape however not a sphere, more like a donut shape or a wheel but no hole in the middle or at least I couldn’t see one it moved too fast. Once it reached near the ground I lost sight of it for a split second as if it disappeared completely. Then it reappeared and moved straight back up. Not at an obvious angle like a plane or any angle I could tell. Simply straight back up. I was still moving toward the object the entire time (which was about 3 seconds). Once I saw it moving up toward the sky I tried leaning forward to look and see if I could catch it again but it was already gone. The object had only been gone for a second when my phone started beeping low battery, that scared me further. I had also heard a static noise when I first saw the object, I was talking over speaker phone and over my car’s speakers so when I heard the static it was quite noticeable. The distance from me in my car driving toward it at around 65mph to where it was is probably about a football field in length, it wasn’t very far but it wasn’t close enough that I could see many more details and it didn’t linger. It was a very scary few moments that had me terrified.


Wrong turn off interstate: Tennessee witness encounters UFO

A Tennessee witness who got off an interstate highway and was quickly lost on a side road reports observing an object with three, sometimes four, lights hovering and slowly descending over a field, according to December 9, 2011, testimony from…

glowing very very brightly. Very rapid movement abruptly south then an immediate take off upwards out of sight.

I was driving home on a semi busy road here in the algarve Portugal, which is surrounded by mountains. The mountains are not large like the ones in British Columbia but large none the less. I saw a very bright light which the only other thing that high up could have been is the front end of an airplane with the front headlight pointed exactly towards where I was driving behind other cars heading home. There is an airport not to far away in the city of faro, which is where I was leaving. Being here a while now I can generally tell the flight patterns and with this wide open sky I can differ from certain types of planes and helicopters.. Anyway.. This particular light I saw was near dusk and lower than any normal star and brighter than normal. I was mentioning the mountains before because that is what I am using as a reference. The light was not much higher than the mountain and I kept my yes on the road but constantly looking at the light which I noticed it move a bit back and forth. It was basically almost straight ahead of me at this point about 5 miles ahead or so when suddenly it veered at a super speed and still lit about a mile south or so then instantly took off upwards and it was gone. The catch is that I’ve now seen it 3 night in a row. Today I got off work at 3pm and did some errands reached home here about 6. I saw it again tonight and when I came inside to grab something the light which I’ve seen now for the last few night was basically in the same sort of area and when I came back outside it was gone. I know it was what I saw the last few nights because of the location. This week I am going to purchase a good night vision video camera because with this big open sky that I have above me I would like to get some get some great video of this.
If you have any questions please feel to call my cell phone or email me. With the phone numbers that I left you do not include area codes, just the straight numbers. Thanks.


Star Like

Stepping out of my house to have a cigarette. The light object was coming from the south. Just like a star bright stedy light. It was coming from the South direction heading North a bit to the east. Going slowly and no sound at all. Light was very bright and low alost like the altitude of a helicopter. This was not a helicopter. After stairing at it moving after about 30 – 40 seconds, it changed color to an orange redish color for about 5 seconds and began dimming fading to black to what looked like a black shadow and disapears. Sky had no clouds so it did not hide behind a cloud. It seemed to have past over Clark road in the Northwest area of Orlando close to Ocoee. At first I wasnt sure of what it could be, I couldnt take my eyes off of it because I was curious what it could be.


Large white,solid light dimmed out to be replaced by 4 or5 pulsating red lights.

I was a Security Officer on duty at the Pekin High School East Campus building on the hill. I was sitting on the bench by the entranceway which was glass doors and large windows,eating my lunch,around 3:30 AM when I looked out to the parking lot and noticed that one of the pole lights was larger than the rest.I thought that’s weird.I thought that I would get a closer look so I laid my sandwich down and stepped up to the glass door.My breath started fogging up the glass making it harder to see the light so I opened the door and stepped outside while holding the door so that it would not close and lock me out.Immediately I noticed how quiet it was outside,the only sounds that I could hear was the sparse traffic on the main road below the hill.As I watched the light it began to dim out then was suddenly replaced by 4 or 5 large lights,like this,…..,and they started to pulsate in random order.I was shocked and thrilled because I recognized it ,to me,as a UFO and I was saddened because I had not investigated it closer as soon as I saw it.The red lights,as one,started silently moving to the left.I assumed it went behind some trees because it seemed that I could see branches between me an the lights.All of a sudden the lights were gone,no where to be seen,I looked all around moving my head.I was excited the rest of my shift,(3rd)and I was anxious? because I thought they would come into the building and I did not know what I would do.I reported it to my higher up,Cady,LT. and afterwards all the other officers laughed at me and made fun of me,on duty,boy was I mad at them.


Large hovering object in dark sky, 1st invisible, then lit with 3 "booster" lights from which flaming trails lit up, then "zoomed" out of sight.

12/10/11 at aprox 1AM CST seen from car driving south on Camp Cardinal Blvd in Iowa City, IA. Street was dark/not many street lights nor other cars on the road. I was driving on an incline, so my line of sight was not only looking ahead, but up at the dark sky. All of a sudden, out of nothing (blackness) overhead in the south-eastern sky, a row of 3 neon green lights appeared, that looked to be lined up evenly on the back of what I perceived to be something solid. When it first appeared, it seemed to be stationary, but after a split second, out of each of the 3 green lights, came a trail, yellow in color, that curved upwards, propelling the object up and out of sight within two more split seconds. It did not cross much of the sky, but dissapeared into nothing, just as it had appeared out of nothing. My sense was that either it was flying at “warp speed” and it just left the area too fast to register much of its departure, or it actually became invisible again, just as it must have been before the green lights had appeared. Judging from how clear I could see the detail, it could not initially have been that high in the sky. It seemed to be in the direction, from my judgement, of the IA City airport, though, though it could have been beyond the airport, and just large enough to be seen so clearly from my viewpoint.

Wanted to report this on the chance that others saw the same thing, to add to the reports credibility. If no one else reports this sighting, then it will remain a private wonder to me.


Three flickering lights in the sky was unbelievable, I heard no sound and saw nothing else.

I was driving on pershing road in stickney Illinois at around 1:15 am , on Saturday September 25, 2011. I noticed three flickering lights moving slowly across the sky. I pulled over to the side to observe the objects. They looked like about airplance distance. Not an airplane too high or low. The three lights were following each other and began going up higher. I was in disbelief and thought about my cell phone.I took two pictures and videotaped what I could.The three circles looked like they were in a triangular form.They went from bright orange reddish to white. It was a cloudy night so the objects slowly moved behind the clouds and I could no longer see them.


Formation of 8 paired, glowing orange lights, steady but pulsating slightly

1. Where were you and what were you doing at the time?
Cascade Township park. Myself and several close friends were participating in a outdoor NERF gun war-game called ZOMB, wherein 80-150+ people engage in a “zombie apocalypse” survival game.

2. What made you first notice the object?
Our “squad” was moving along the perimeter of the park closest to I-96. My friend Jason was the first to notice the lights and point them out. We looked NE across the park to see 8 orange glowing UFOs paired off in a staggered formation about 30-40 degrees above the horizon. As we looked across the highway at the Gerald Ford International Airport we saw searchlights moving across the sky over the airport.

3. What did you think the object was when you first noticed it?
My first impression based on the pulsating glow of the objects was that of aerial flares. However the night was breezy and if the objects had indeed been flares they would have been drifting in the wind.

4. Describe the object and its actions and motions in detail.
The 8 objects remained stationary, paired off at equal distance from each other in their staggered formation. No downward fall or drift with the wind currents. The objects were completely silent. (I don’t know who else in the park that night may have noticed the phenomenon although it was clearly visible for at least 5 minutes.)

5. Describe your feelings, reactions and actions, during and after sighting the object.
I was the most excited, I kept asking everyone around me “Are you seeing this? Tell me you’re seeing this.” the sighting was verified by the 5 other people that made up our small ‘squad’ which included several of my closest friends. I was frustrated because I had brought a camera to the event but had left it locked in my car for fear of it being lost or damaged during the course of the game. (The image included is a approximation of the event superimposed on a screenshot from the Google road cam.)

6.How did you lose sight of the object?
The objects disappeared one by one over the course of 45 seconds to a minute, I personally witnessed at least two of the objects disappear as we continued moving along the perimeter of the park. By the time we came to a halt, the objects had all vanished.


Black orb floated along the street in front of me

I was driving and exited I-70 at the Lee’s Summit exit heading East and pulled up to the stoplight on Lee’s Summit road. My vehicle was the only one at that intersection. The light was red. Some movement in the road caught my attention- it was located to my left in the center part of the road. It was a dull black sphere about the size of a basketball or a little larger. It had no lights or windows or any features on it at all. The object was floating just a few inches above the road and moving in a straight line right along the middle of the street. It’s shadow was cast on the road from the streetlights. The object passed in front of my car at a slow rate, and kept going along the road heading south and to my right, then just disappeared. The object did not fade out, it literally disappeared and was no longer visible. I watched it for approximately one minute, which was long enough to get a good look at it. My 18-year-old son was with me riding in the passenger side of the vehicle and he saw it, too, and said, “Uh, Mom, what the heck is that?”
I’ve never seen anything like it but the first thing that I thought it could be was a UFO, however, it might have been something else entirely.


Check upon Southern green star I saw move several nights ago

This was a fast check upon the Southern star that I saw move several nights ago. I wanted to confirm that it is still there. Indeed it was and it appears to be behaving just as a star should, slowly tracking through the night sky.

I further checked the general area of the Eastern, Southern & Western sky for any signs of �moving stars� or other odd objects. None were found.

I plan on checking more often and perhaps building a simple observation platform that will let me track the movement of these objects.

The questionnaire asks about ones emotional state during the sighting. Being as I had seen stars move before, but had dismissed these as optical illusions, I was only slightly shocked when I saw the Southern green star move against a stable foreground object. There was no denying that the star was indeed moving. My initial excitement changed to curiosity. Although it is a bit �creepy� to think that stars are moving and then to realize what that implies, I have had an easy time not letting this get the best of me. My wife does not know I am actively attempting to record data, nor does she know that I am submitting reports to MUFON.

As I build more observation time, I find it less �creepy� to be doing this and my curiosity has increased dramatically.

One curious event has occurred since I began posting these events at another website before I found MUFON. Last night at approximately 3:00 AM my dogs awoke my wife and she claimed that someone was shining a flashlight into our house. I thought nothing of this at the time and explained to her it was likely a Sherriff trying to find his whereabouts on our road.

I live North of Kingman very far out on a country road. This means people often get lost and look for a house number. Livestock, dogs and other pets often run off and we have had people look for them at all hours of the night. But I do think it slightly odd that this happen just as I have begun serious investigation of the �moving stars� in my night skies. This is of course likely just a coincidence, but the timing is indeed strange.
