Orange Reddish Object Over Columbia Maryland

Date: December 31, 2010

Time: Approx: 11:53 p.m.

My two friends and I saw an object gliding by our restaurant at around 11:53pm. The object had orange-reddish light forming a triangular shape that slid across the sky. The object made no sound as it distanced itself from view. It went from a close-up look to a distant figure in a matter of 1 to 2 minutes. We found this site as we are still trying to wrap our heads around what we saw.

Lights Zooming Around The Sky And Witnesses Truck Lit Up At Strip Pits (State Park) Just East Of Columbia Missouri

Date: Late 1980/Early 1981.

Time: 1:30 a.m. - 2:30 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of Objects: 5 – 10 ?
Shape of Objects: Spherical ?

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I noticed a bright red/orange spot in the sky, which molted into greenish blue and then I noticed white other lights streaking across the night sky toward and away from the larger spot, at rates far faster than any earthly aircraft. Then the ground around the truck began to brightly light up as if spotlighted, here and there, but with no visible 'beam' or source.

As this 'spotlight' eventually 'lit up' the truck where my infant son and I were waiting for my husband to come back with help for a flat tire that had occurred while we were out there nighttime cat-fishing in the strip pits. I began to try to communicate telepathically (in real fear and in the moment losing control of my bladder, that "Please don't do anything to my son. He's just a baby. Do whatever to me, but not my son. I'm not a threat. I'm friendly. I believe in peace for all beings of the universe and other trite sounding thoughts"

Just as quickly as this all began, I noticed the satellite white (changing to red and back) lights in the sky all zoomed toward the larger one and then 'poof' it all disappeared.

I tried to explain this all to my husband (because of the smell in the truck) but he wasn't having any of it. I waited over 20 years to bring it up to anyone again, but was so dismissed I didn't talk about it again until now.

I was searching for records on a severe downburst storm that happened in Columbia in July 1981 (that downed over 10,000 trees and almost killed my sons and me) and the Google search brought up another poster's UFO sighting file here from Columbia MO around the same time.

If I can lend any credence to their report, I hope this is helpful.

I was/am a Girl Scout First Class (equiv. to Eagle and now called Gold Award) and have extensive camping experience which includes lots of primitive camping/hiking of the Appalachian Trail.

I'm not afraid of the forest after dark. I had not smoked or drank anything that night because I was pregnant with my second son at the time. Also, if there were other reports or news about the experience at the time, I did not see/read/hear them.

Blue Green Objects Fall Out Of The Sky Over Columbia Missouri

Date: December 12, 2010 and December 13, 2010
Time: 10:40 p.m. and 11:30 p.m.

Hi, my name is (name removed). I live close to Columbia Missouri and I was wondering if what you saw was like a shooting star, but falling straight vertically down to the ground? Why I ask is because I have seen three of these balls of light falling from the sky in the past two days. I
have never seen anything like this before. I was wondering if what I saw was something maybe paranormal or something natural. The first one I saw was on 12-12-10 at about 10:40pm at my house looking south from my back porch.

Then I saw two on 12-13-10 one at about 11:30pm and the second one about 15 minutes later. I saw these driving home from work driving on interstate 70 going eastbound and looking north both times. Each light had a blue/green color to it and not much bigger than the size of a shooting star in the sky. I was just wondering if you had seen anything more, or had some insight to what I had seen.

I do not have any witnesses, but I promise I'm not crazy and I didn't catch these out of the corner of my eye, I saw it happen all three times. It just appeared about 400 to 500 feet up in the air and then disappeared about 20 feet from the ground. I'm good at judging height because I used to climb cell towers, so I'm not pulling these numbers out of my butt.

I just don't want you to think I'm trying to pull some crap on you. So if you could help me out id appreciate it. Thank you sir.
