Date: January 5, 2011
Time: Approx: 7:30 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Soldotna, Alaska.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of Objects: ?
Shape of Objects: 2 very round reddish lights.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: My husband and I were inside watching TV. It was a fairly clear night and very dark out. He got up to get a drink of water and looked out the window and saw two very bright, large, reddish glowing lights out the window. We turned out the lights in the house to watch, and for about 5 minutes saw them seemingly sit in the same position.

They appeared fairly close and looked like the headlights of a large truck coming toward us, though they did not appear to move, they stayed the same distance apart and above the ground.

We live out in the country and the lights looked like they were above and a bit before, the only neighbor below us. (Our house is on a hill.)

We went to the upper level of the house to get a better look and they remained in the same spot. We opened the window to listen, but no sound at all.

At this point I raised the binoculars I had managed to find and no sooner did, than the lights just blinked out. Like a light switch being thrown.

There is nothing in that area to produce such a light. They did not act like flares.

While waiting for the beginning of the lunar eclipse, my 16 year old son spotted a single reddish/orange cone shape object traveling from the north to south across the sky. Altitude was not discernable, there was no sound emanating from the object. It took approximately 2.5 - 3 minutes for the object to travel across the sky at a constant velocity. My son said that the object just appeared as he was looking at the moon.

We had binoculars to observe the eclipse, and on closer inspection with the binoculars my son described the object as a fiery reddish orange badminton birdy, i.e. cone shaped. In addition to myself observing it with my son, my 20 year old daughter also observed the object. After the object was out of sight, my daughter and I returned to the house, but my son remained outside expecting to see another object. Within 3-4 minutes my son was yelling inside the house that another object was in sight - this time my daughter, my wife, and myself were outside observing the object.

This one was following the same trajectory, however, it's track was approximately 10 degrees more easterly in the sky. As this second object started to disappear in the southern sky, two more objects appeared in the northern sky. One of them followed approximately the same track as the first object, and the other one followed the track of the second object - i.e. their east/west position in the sky as they both travelled north to south. None of the objects produced any discernable noise. They did not have any strobes, nor did we see any kind of rotating beacon, or green starboard light on the object.

We've lived on the space coast for nearly 18 years and have seen scores of space shuttle and rocket launches from Kennedy Space center and Canaveral Air Force base. The color and intensity of the objects were similar to that of a rocket plume, but did not have any corresponding noise/vibration, nor did it appear to travel with the velocity necessary to achieve orbit.

The speed was constant, not accelerated. I am an instrument rated private pilot with hundreds of hours of flying time. I also have a Bachelors degree in Physics and in Aerospace Engineering. I am 50 years old and have never seen anything like these objects in the sky. A video clip from my son's iPhone was taken, but not does share anything besides our comments for a brief period and a dot of light.

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.

This is very urgent. I was working tonight and at about 11:00pm my co-workers and I saw 4 lights cruising at the same speed in the east southeast position traveling northeast. It seemed as if there were two sets and the two lights were connected vertically.

I wish I could draw a picture as it was disturbing because the horizontal lights were completely aligned with each other moving at the same speed and giving off a fire-like glow. Reddish-orange.

Please respond immediately because it was crazy and it just happened. Thank you.

October 9, 2010 at 10:05 p.m. Two other friends and myself were sitting outside when all 3 of us spotted a reddish-orange fireball travel across the sky. It traveled a southwest to northeast direction. At first we thought it was a meteor, but it never disappeared like meteors do. There was no sound and there was only one. It looked like what a plane might look like if it were on fire.

It appeared through the trees and went right over the top of us. We watched it until we couldn't see it anymore, probably about 30 seconds. It was very bright but it didn't blink. We have planes fly over all the time heading to O-Hare to land. There were not blinking lights and we can always hear the planes. This was probably about the same elevation as the planes coming in for a landing but it wasn't anything any of us have ever seen.

Shortly afterwards a plane did appear and we could hear it and see the blinking lights. This was round in shape. I would love to know what we saw.

Brian, I saw most of the unidentified group last night. I was at Waverly Rd. and Tecumseh River Dr. It was exactly 9:10 p.m. when the came from the Southwest and were heading Northeast.


This is just South of the Lansing Capital City Airport. Surely radar must have detected these. It was a clear sky with no moon of course.

I estimate there were well over 15 of them. They were all the same reddish-amber color, like in the glowing coals of a wood campfire. They seemed to be faintly pulsating.

The first were grouped loosely together with some individual drifting motions between them which indicated they were individual entities.


Quite a few followed in a single line after the initial group but they were not evenly spaced apart. They were totally silent and I estimate altitude to be approximately 5,000 feet.

I was very excited to see these too. I struggled to take pictures of these with my new cell phone camera. I fumbled around with it because I hadn't used the camera function yet. I have attached two pictures that are the best of the lot. They only show specs against the night sky but clearly show the objects colors and the number within first grouping I witnessed.

This is a big deal and the more people who can confirm last night's sighting, the better.

Time: Evening.

Hi there, I'm glad I came across this story. I saw the exact same thing last night and a multitude of others in my neighborhood. I was sitting on the porch when I first saw a group of 13 "gliding" silently headed south (I live on the Westside of Chicago). I then received calls from my sister who described the same thing and I told her that I was already looking at them.

She was scared senseless and my sister is a tough cookie. She's not into the UFO thing, but even she knew that those weren't the type of aircraft that we would normally see. There were about 24 altogether and they all had a reddish/orange glow that was constant and seemed to fly in formation.

After the initial 13 there were more that seemed to "appear" 1 after the other and continue in the same direction. I was too shocked to even consider recording it on my camera. This is the strangest stuff I've ever seen and I can't get those eerie images out of my head.

Date: September 25, 2010
Time: 7:05 p.m.

Location of Sighting: North Attleboro Massachusetts.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of Objects: Multiple.
Shape of Objects: Round.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: On September 25, 2010 at approximately 7:05 pm, I took my daughter to play miniature golf, but the course was closed. While I was using my GPS to get directions, my daughter noticed the objects, and asked me what they were. When I looked, I first thought they were flares, because they were round, and reddish orange in color. Then I realized some were traveling up, but not floating down, and others were moving together horizontally, and changing directions. They all at one point started to disappear.

While this was all going on, I started to video the objects with my phone, and I told my daughter to use her phone, and she took pictures. I also noticed other people walking down the street, and looking up at the objects also.

Please feel free to call me if you need additional information.

My girlfriend and her son saw the same light Wednesday night Sept. 22, 2010 at about 7:35/7:45 PM. She called me at work but when I went outside I could not see it. They said it was orange/reddish in color. Her son said he thought it was a flaming plane, they both said it was moving slow.
Hope this helps.

Date: September 21-22, 2010
Time: From 11:00 p.m. to roughly 1:00 a.m.

Location of Sighting: North of Altadena.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of Objects: 1
Shape of Objects: Sometimes it could be seen bigger and reddish, usually was spherical, but one time it looked like a large cylinder, specially when descending (not too low)

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I usually stay up reading late. I was expecting to see another celestial phenomena and went out and saw a huge planet close to the moon. I came back to my desk that faces the mountains to the north.

I thought I was seeing a star, but then it moved around I thought in an helicopter, it even lasted a long time and was in the same latitude and altitude. But the most amazing thing is that stayed in that area, but moving higher little by little and disappeared.

Time: Approx: 10:10 p.m.

On the night of Sept. 5, 2010 my wife, myself and another couple were sitting on the back of my boat at East Tawas State dock in East Tawas, Michigan. It was about 10:10pm when we observed a large reddish orange ball that looked like it was on fire. At first though I though it was a hot air balloon that was on fire. It traveled from the southwest to the northeast in what appeared to be a horizontal path.

After about 20 seconds it accelerated to a high rate of speed and went up and out of sight. A friend of mine told me today that the news in upper Michigan reported that a near miss with an asteroid took place that night. I doubt that an asteroid could change direction and then accelerate. I wonder why this did not make the world news. Any information that you might have will be appreciated.
