At about 1400hrs on sunday 17th of july 2005 we seen a cigar shaped object rotating in the sky below cloud level for about 45mins slow moving through the sky, i went to get my Binoculars and watched the object for about 20mins and i noticed that when i looked at it it had no engines,windows,etc the colour was black/grey the size looked to be very large it was standing rotating and leveling when it was rotating it seemed to appear smaller although it could have been the movement of the object as we were a distance away but still high enough to see the shape and size of the object as we are eleven floors up. Lost sight of object when a plane circled the area once and left. The object reapeard out of the clouds at a further distance away which made it look smaller we watched for a further 5 minutes and then we lost sight of the object and did not see how and were it went.if anyone else seen the same object over merseyside could you please post in and let us know what you seen we must not have been the only ones to have seen this object.

Full Description & Details

At around 6:30 pm in a summer day I noticed my neighbor staring south at some communication antennas that are located near SW 40 Street and about 68 avenue in the City of South Miami, and she called me and said look at that light over their the way it is moving, I started watching it and noticed it too. About five minutes later the light started moving towards our location and finnaly appeared I would say about 1000 feet from were we were standing, by this time my mother my friend Orlando and a few other neithbor were also looking at this saucer shape object wich had lights around it moving in a circular motion as if you were looking at disco lights . It stood still in the conner of our neighborhood at SW 10 Street and 66 Avenue for about a minute or so, Orlando and I got our bikes and rode towards the object as it made no sound at all and started moving East on SW 10 street at about the height of the power cables, we followed behind for about a block and all the sudden it started going higher and just got out of site. This is something I will always remember and no body can tell me THAT IT WAS A WEATHER BALLOON OR HELICOPTER FOR I KNOW IT WAS NOT FROM HERE. THIS I CAN CAN STILL REMEMBER AS IF IT WAS YESTERDAY.

Full Description & Details

At first I didn't wake her up but I could see the lights behind the trees which then rose above the trees and hovered in the air for a moment. I could "hear" a message in my thoughts that my desire for proof of extraterrestrials had arrived and that I was not to tell anyone. It was definitely telepathic communication and I asked silently if I could tell my woman and the reply was something like "If you want to." So I woke her up and asked her to look out the window and tell me what she could see. She described exactly what I saw and then I made sure I wasn't dreaming by several different methods(shaking my head, pinching myself, asking her if we were dreaming,etc.). I then asked her if she could "hear" the message coming mentally from the ship which by this time was landing very close to the house. She said, "It's telling us not to tell anyone and that we can come onto the ship." That's what I was perceiving also, so I jumped out of bed and started putting my clothes on as she put her robe on. I was out in the upstairs hall and headed down the stairs to the back door of the house when I heard her say she HAD to tell our roommate who was sleeping in her room. I said don't do it as I shot down to the first floor and out to the back yard. I saw the ship sitting there and there was an open door with a ramp coming out of it. Meanwhile my girl friend and roommate were headed downstairs but I was intent on getting onto the vehicle and not violating the beings who had sent the thoughts by telling more people. There was a yellowish light coming from the interior and I could see a tiled wall and what appeared to be a tube filled with liquid at the center of the room. The next thing I remembered was standing back in the house near the back door. I rushed back outside and the UFO was lifting off into the air above the yard. The women were entering the room from the upstairs by this time and they joined me outside. As I looked up following its movement high into the air(about 150 ft.) the object transformed itself into what appeared to be a U.S. Army Cargo plane, complete with a rumbling engine sound and proceeded away above the trees. Our roommate said something to the effect that it was just a plane, and I could feel waves of mental energy attempting to block and confuse my mind into a doubtful state. As we stood there in the yard I resolved not to let my memory be blanked out. We all ended up going back to bed and the next day my girlfriend said the whole thing was probably in our minds somehow, but I know it was physical/material/real time expereince because I ran onto that ship with my jeans and a t-shirt on and had only underpants on when I found myself back in the house minutes or hours later. What happened inside the ship I cannot recall but remember running up that ramp.

Full Description & Details

I don't even believe in UFO's, but when I was a young girl coming home from an evening with friends by the river at Warrandyte, Melbourne, I saw something I could not explain. Admittedly I had had a few beers, but whatever I saw seemed realer than any hallucination I could have conjured.

I was sitting in the back seat of a friend's car. in the middle seat, looking through the front windscreen. No one else was looking in the same place as I was. The driver was concentrating on the road. The other passengers chatting amoungst themselves. I saw something barrelling towards us just above the line of streetlights from the other direction. It was heading in our direction but was above us naturally. Very quickly it had passed above our car and continued following the line of streetlights away from us. I ducked my head and struggled to watch it pass over us, and into the rear windscreen and continued to watch it as it went from view. I did try to point it out to other passengers in the car but it all happened quickly enough that i could not articulate properly where to look without missing myself the thing. I was transfixed.

It was not big. It was actually suprisingly small, being very low to earth, the road, I would have to say it was only a meter or so in length. Too small to inhabit people. It was also shaped like the quintessential image of a UFO. a round flat disc with a small dome on the top. So ludicrously like something you'd see in a looney tune cartoon i felt like an idiot telling my friends what i had seen, and indeed none believed me.

What was most unusual about this object was a: the speed and precision at which it moved, it hovered so expertly, so smoothly above the lights as if it were following an invisible road, and went quite fast, and b: it was opaque, see through, it was as though the night sky could be seen through the object - it was black like the night sky, the only reason i could see it was because - and this is the hardest thing to explain - the edges of the object were glowing, like neon, in white sometimes color. The edges of the disc were like this in a sphere, but the dome was hardest to explain, although technically the shape of it should logically rule out being able to form a neon edge - somehow i could see the surface of the dome in neon white and color alternately - it was as if it was made from some strange plastic that was see through but had a sheen to its surface.

It would have been almost invisible at night to identify and i only saw this thing because i had the luck of looking directly at its point of appearance and then followed it through trying to figure out what the hell it was!!!

I have often wondered if what i saw was maybe some strange reflection of the street lights, but it was just so particularly detailed and to this day i can describe what i saw clearly.

Full Description & Details

My grandparents' house had a balcony where you can look out and get a good view of the left part of the house including the front towards the side of the house. It was a clear night around 7-8PM. There were no street lights as the house was in a rural area. The only lights were the ones coming from the houses. I was sitting in the balcony looking out the sky, then saw a low flying round object, I was sure it wasn't sort of a bird or someone's "high tech toy". Birds fly with grace even if they are flying fast and the object was zooming but not too fast that I had a reasonable amount of time to look at it. It couldn't be someone's toy because the area was very rural at that time. The object went past the balcony I was at and flew over my grandparents' neighbors' house who happened to be my grandma's younger brother's house. Then it disappeared. It was weird but it was real. I know I wasn't imagining it.

Color of Object(s):

white/silver/grey

Full Description & Details

I was working under my car and heard a noise unlike any type of transport I have ever heard and for some reason it sounded to me like a form of transport. After quickly removing myself from underneath my car I looked around in the sky where I thought the sound was coming from. My eyes locked on to a tubular shaped object which was rounded at the ends approximately 18-20 metres long and about 3 metres in diameter, white/silver/grey in colour with a dark section that covered about 3-4metres of the underside rear. When I first caught sight of the vehicle it was accelerating at quite a rapid rate and continued to do so while I watched. About halfway along its straight trajectory the vehicle came off its line and performed a spiral movement (the object remained upright with the dark section at the rear remaining on the underside) and from what i could discern ended up on its original straight line continueing on its way all the while accelerating. About 2 or 3 seconds after it performed its spiral manouvre it continued to accelerate quicker than it was moving before and disappeared out of sight. To my knowledge no human made object can manouvre or accelerate the way in which this object did (without falling to pieces that is). I've tried to figure out where it 'took off' from by judging its trajectory and am guessing it would have been about 10kilometres west of the Glasshouse Mountains/Beerwah area in the Sunshine Coast area of Queensland, Australia. The weather was clear, no wind and good visibility. I have no idea what the speed of this object was due to its ever accelerating nature.

Full Description & Details

In the dusk hours in 1978, I was standing outside of a Exxon service station in Salome, Arizona and was facing west. The mountains in the background located about three miles away and approximately 800 to 1000 feet higher than the level at which I stood.

I saw a fast moving object which emitted a bright fluorescent lighting. The object rotated counterclockwise and had the appearance and action of a boomerang. The object travelled south in a horizontal plane 400 to 500 feet above the mountain range and appeared to be much larger than any conventional plane. Its speed and rotation was noticeably fast. The object did not make any noticeable noise or do anything considered unusual and was only observed in my field of vision for no more than 4 seconds. Moments later a friend traveling westbound on US 60 in her personal vehicle stopped at the service station to buy a soda and inquired if I had witnessed what she had just observed.

Color of Object(s):

white

Full Description & Details

The object appeared initially over a high rise building in Miami beach. I was far away but unusual because of its white glow and perfect position over the building. It appeared to be spinning rapidly counter-clockwise. Later, the object reappeared as my family left Miami beach enroute to home, Vero Beach (approximately three hours away). The object moved so fast that it was impossible to track with the eyes until it was stationary again. It made no sound at all. It some instances during our transit back to my home town, it would make close passes to the ground, creating a brief phenomena over the ground that I can best describe as a "whirl-wind' affect. The sand and other objects on the ground would rapidly spiral upward as though caught in a "whirl-wind". I also noticed that the object was not actually spinning. There appeared to be a thin spinning field around the object. It continued to zip around to various positions in the sky for a while and then became stationary overhead. However, it was so bright that I could still see its reflection in the car window. This entire sequence of events on the road went on for about one hour and a half. Finally it zipped to a position over a relatively tall building, pulsed (became extremely bright for a moment), and then zipped away with incredible speed with an enormous roar (the only time that this object made any sound) and leaving a visible, and very solid trail that quickly dissipated. This story sounds like something right out of a science fiction novel. I will not tell this story to but only a hand full of very well trusted friends and family for this reason. I do know for certain that this was no natural phenomena or man-made object. I have never seen anything like it since. I was a young child then and, since it was not cigar or saucer shaped, I did not understand for a long time that I had actually seen a UFO. For a long time, I thought of it as a small, white tornado due to the spinning field around it.

Full Description & Details

I live about 4 miles west from Juan Santamaría Airport in Alajuela, Costa Rica.

I was riding in bicycle and suddenly saw this brilliant object, almost like floating, with a little movement heading west. At the same time a DC-8 cargo airplane or similar had just taken off the airport and was passing above the property i live in going north-west. I´m sure they had to see it too, and using the airplane as moving reference, i figured out that what i beleive was an absolutely true UFO was almost floating in a stop, but was going west, slowly.

This incident was also registered in the airport tower where a photograph was taken and plublished the next day in the most important newsaper called La Nacion. When i saw this photo, i realized that what i saw was definitely a UFO. It was about 1:30 p.m. a Friday or Saturday afternoon.

It had a seed-shape but its rims were not round, but flat. (from my point of view).
