Full Description & Details

On June 27, 2006 at approximately 2:30 PM in broad day light, clear skies, my husband and a co-worker saw what at first looked like a giant parade ballon that had come loose. But as they watched it approach they quickly realized it was not what they first thought. The object hovered in place and then slowly moved in the direction of my Husband and the co-worker. Both men called me to come look. It took me a few minutes to respond. They had followed it up the street on foot and by the time I saw it it was maybe 500 yards up in the air. This object looked metal to me, two halves covered in spikes, grey body, the spikes were black and the two halves rotated in opposite direction.

We watched as it slowed ascended in total disbelief. I called my supervisor who drove to where we were, by now a small crowd of 10 or so people were with us watching and looking at the object with binoculars. My supervisor arrived maybe 5 minutes after I called. We all watched it ascend almost out of view and the descend back to view where it hovered again for about six to eight minutes before ascending again and vanishing.

This sighting lasted almost a half and hour. We called the paper and the news media. When we called the news station the person on the line said they were already interviewing some one else that saw the object. So we were satisfied that every one in Redding was watching this. We ran to get cameras but by the time we were able to get a camera the object was so high it would only appear as a black dot. No matter, we were convinced someone was able to get a great picture and it would be in the paper or on the news. To our dismay there was no mention of the object on the news or in the paper. There were over ten of us and we have no proof. Torture!! Did anyone get a picture? Please post this on your web page. Maybe someone reading this has seen a similar object and was smart enought to stop staring long enough to get a great camera shot.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

NO we all agreed no of us had ever seen anything like it in life or on tv. We tried to come us with something that would explain it.

Witness Background

I am 40 years old a 20 year management professional.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I am an optomistic sceptic. I find it hard to believe we are alone but was sure I'd never see anything other than tv programs to confirm or deny my optimism. I want to believe it was a real ufo but... I'm not ungrounded, I know that saying you saw a ufo is considered crazy. I guess I am able to wave the your crazy statement away because more than ten of us saw it and agree. We all believe it was not of this world.

Other Comments

Please if you have seen something like this and were able to get a clear picture, post it on this web page. We will keep reading accounts posted.

Very large,

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

50-60+ miles away

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was rural

Full Description & Details

Coming home from night school class, i arrived home and looked to the north ,and saw a very bright light , which was flashing red, white , green and blue. Obviously as a pilot I knew it could not be a conventional aircraft ,as no aircraft is allowed to show blue lights, or red white and green all at the same time. So I looked at it with my 15X 50 binocculars, but all I could make out was the lights. I was about 50 miles away in a straaight line. An C130 aeroplane of the USAF - Mildenhall , passed by between it and me and it's lights were puny by comparrison. I watched it till after 12 30am ,and gave up and went to bed.

later the object was reported in the UFO magazine and was said to have been observed by a police car crew from Skegness, who videoed it , and said it looked like a giant brown boomerang, stationary over the coast of the Wash and had also been seen by a Noth Sea Gas supply ship which ahd taken sightings on it. It was also seen on several military and civil radars (one at Kinloss was about 450 miles away) and reported by an airliner flying above it. The object sat stationary in the same place for many hours, until the next day when it just dissapeared and was not there any more

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Definitely not a natural object

Witness Background

I was in the Royal airforce for 15 years and in aviation for 28 years and was a pilot for 24 years including commercial helicopters for 10 years. i know this was not a normal earthly object

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I believe they exist, But I also think some if not all of them come from possibly different dimentions to our own and occasionallycross to ours, I felt this one may have been a airliner of a different dimention that had just arrived back from smewhere, for refuel or service and departed again .

Other Comments

In another dimension that area might have been the crafts home base,and to them it may have been sitting parked on the ground in their dimention which would explain why it could just sit there and not fall down on us.

Duration: 

4 1/2 hours

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Like an Airship in shape, silver, quite large, no protuberances, not tailfin/rudder/engines visible.

Size of Object(s)

Quite large but as distance away was not exact size is only approximate

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

probably about 3-4 miles away and about 2-3000 feet above the clouds

Description of Area / Surroundings

Rural area, mountainous area , but nearer to the coast so only small hills between us and it. There is a nuclear power station on the coast some distance away , but I doubt if it was very near there or anything to do with that

Full Description & Details

While serving inthe Royal Air Force on disembarkation leave after two years in Aden (south Yemen) took my family members. (parents Aunt, cousin, and old school friend on camping holiday in the "lake district" of cumbria.) First morning about 8am ,bright clear day, we saw the object to the west , stationary. It had the shape and approximate size of an airship, but without any protuberances like engines cabin fins/ rudders etc and had no markings arta all. We all looked at it witha telescope provided by the neighbouring (tent) family Mr Mrs Miles and two daughters, from Melksham, Wiltshire, using my cars roof rack as a support. It had definite form and was reflecting sunlight from its silvery surface. Although there was a brisk northerly wind blowing it remained absolutely stationary without even the slightest wobble or movement.. Even with the telescope we could not see any signs of any markings or windows. It was observed from 8am till 12.30 pm by wich time there was clouds building and passing it. At 12.30pm a larger cloud passed by and we saw irslide behind the clous as the cloud passed. when the cloud had moved on the object was no longer there. there was no sound of any kind. with the telescope we could see it was not tethered to anything as there was nocables or anything attached to it. I was a pilot for 24 years of my 28 years in aviation and have never seen another object like it. I have seen airships but they did not look like this one did.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

NO

Witness Background

I spent 15 years in the Royal Air Force, and was a pilot for 24 years, including helicopters, and have never seen an object like this. I spent a total of 28 years in aviation, (now retired but still work as a full time volunteer in office administration)

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Open minded , but I do believe they exist and are not figment s of imagination. I Read a lot and bought videos. I think there may well be other dimentions to our own in which such objects exist and can cross into our dimention occasionally. But who knows.

Other Comments

Strange object was not a baloon and sat unmoving in a strong wind for over 4 hours and vanished.

Date:

November, 1948

Location:

Elgin, , Scotland, United Kingdom

Summary:

4 Children outside at night. A large completely circular glowing ball passed east to west about 300 feet up behind our house at about 1000 + MPH with a fiery tail going horizontal and disappeared to the west in seconds. We felt a compresion of air as it passed no sound

Date Reported:

6/28/2006 3:37:07 AM

Sighting Time: 

7pm

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

No. of Witnesses: 

4

Duration: 

10-15 seconds

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Glowing sphere which must have been about 100 feet in diameter, with a short fiery tail about 3 times its length. Yellowish orange in colour.

Size of Object(s)

approximately 100 feet in diameter ( sharply circular with definite edge)but difficult to estimate as it was going so very fast.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

about 200 yards away, and about 2-300 feet altitude

Description of Area / Surroundings

Rural area on the edge of the city with no further housing to the south of Elgin at Ashgrove. There was and still is mil. bases near but it was not theirs.

Full Description & Details

The objest first appeared to the east as a flash in the sky which drew out attention to it. the night was dark with clear sky and no moon so stars were bright as polution there was minimal. The object suddenly got brighter which got out attention, as it came rapidly nearer. Almost quicker that it takes to tell it passed by behind our house about 200 yards away absolutely horizontally at very high speed at what must have been very low height as it momentarily passed behind our house. then in an instant it was gone from sight to the west. It was a fairly large glowing sphere with a pointed fiery tail about 3 times it's length. It was certainly near to us as we did feel a compression of air as it passed so it was definitely not a "Shooting Star", and as it was going horizontal to the earth it obviously was not crashing as there was no reports of such happening

. In later life I joined the Royal Air Force, and I became a pilot for 24 years ( including 12 years on helicopters) and have seen many aerial objects, of many shapes, but never one like this one was. It was in the air, flying, and definitely un identified so to me this was a definite UFO.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Definitely not. No moon and I dont know of any plannet that an go that fast at 2-300 feet above the ground.

Witness Background

15 years RAF service. Pilot for 24 years. education to A level, 28 years in Aviation.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Before i had never heard of a UFO. in later years I have seen three and believe they are something of substance and not mythical. I have read much and bought several videos, and am open minded and not a sceptic.

No ithing the above covers this one. Will submit further reports about the other two sightings.

It was a hot day and we were having class. Suddenly, a black ufo with two wings was flying slowly in the sky. For the sun was shining brightly, I could't see it clearly, it looked alittle like a balloon with two wings. Perhaps after 2~3 minutes, the ufo got lost, some of us thought it was just a real balloon, but I don't think so, cos after about 2 minutes, the ufo was flying again in the sky. It turned around and around fast. Soon, it fly to the east.
