Appearance / Description of Object(s)Silver/Gray shaped disc with a dome top. Dome top had, what looked liked, arch shaped, tinted windows around it. Red lights surrounded the perimeter of the disc and flashed in a synchronized fashion, going around and around, flashing one right after the other. It was well lit from it's lights or from the moon....not sure which. It hummed softly as it hovered above us. The object I saw was very similar to the drawing submitted by the individual in Paris, TN. Size of Object(s)It was no tall but wide. Probably as wide as my grandparent's house. Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeRoof level - altitude and about 20 ft in front of me. Description of Area / SurroundingsRural area on top of a hill. Not sure about military bases or power plants. Full Description & DetailsThis event was amazing and I feel lucky to have witnessed it. That's how I view it now, although, I had no idea what I was witnessing at the time and had never heard of UFO's. I was 13 years old, my sister was 10. We were laying in bed, goofing around not wanting to sleep. Our bedroom was on the 3rd story of my grandparent's house which was located at the top of a hill in a rural area of Jeanette, PA. It was a hot, humid night. The windows of our bedroom were open. Our grandparents were outside, in front of their house, preparing their motorhome for overnight guests arriving the following day. My grandmother yelled up to us from the yard. She said, "Dee-Dee, Dee-Dee look outside the window". I went to the window and looked down to where I knew she was working. Standing in front of the motorhome, she pointed upward, toward the sky, and to the side of the house and said, "Look out the other window!!!" My sister and I went to the only other window in the room. Hovering right above roof level (right above this widow and out about 20 ft) was a large disc-shaped saucer. It was silver/gray in color with a domed top. The dome had, what looked like, arched shaped, darkly tinted windows around it. Red, round-shaped lights flashed in a synchronized pattern around its perimeter, flashing around and around and around. It hummed ever so softly. That is the only noise I heard. It hovered for about 30 seconds and then with a white streak of light it vanished, stopping in the far distance, hovered again, and then dropped down out of my sight into a nearby valley. Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?Not unless we have the ability to travel at the speed of light with very little sound. I saw this object up close and it is not anything I've ever seen before. Witness BackgroundI am a mom of a high school student. I have a BA in psychology and completed course work for my MA in Experimental Psychology. I work with my husband in his real estate business.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)Very bright, roundish light. Size of Object(s)Relative size was about 1/4". It was fairly far away, at a great altitude. Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeSeveral Miles away. Description of Area / SurroundingsRural Area. No military sites close by. Full Description & DetailsI was looking up in the sky around 6:00 pm or so. I saw a bright, roundish light rip through the sky at a high rate of speed. it was moving to the left. It stopped mid air and stayed stationary for about 20 seconds. Then changed course and went back the way it came at a very high rate of speed before totally disappearing within seconds. A friend was with me and saw the exact same sighting. We both were standing there in disbelief at what we had seen. Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?No way. It was moving entirely too fast, and then stopped mid air within an instant at several thousand feet in the air. Witness BackgroundI work I.T.. I'm a college graduate. Views on UFOs, before and after sightingWasn't for sure how I felt about them. Not really convinced either way. Haven't spent any great amount of time reading or researching about them...but this experience definitely peaked my interest. Reported Sighting?NoYour Location:Hammond, Louisiana, USA |

Appearance / Description of Object(s)Other than the running light from side to side, It was lit up by the city light that it was hovering over. I did not observed any other light source. Size of Object(s)I was larger than a B-727 ( I was a flight attendant at the time so I had some frame of reference) Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeI was less than a 1/2 city block away from it. It was hovering roughly 50 feet off the ground. Description of Area / SurroundingsI think it was hovering over a transformer on the street. Full Description & DetailsIt was an early evening, I had driven to get a hamburger. on the way back down Magnoia Ave. I noticed that 2 people on opposite sides of the street were stopped dead both looking up at something. I looked in the general direction, but at first didn't see anything. I turned the corner onto Carter St. and there it was. It was a boomerang shaped UFO hovering over a transformer. I got so excited, I tried honking the horn so my husband would come out and look, but the horn didn't work. I ran into the house to get him which didn't take very long. When we ran back outside it was nowhere to be seen. I saw the complete underside of it from approximately 1/2 block away. It was distinctly metallic with hatches and portholes on the underside. It had a sweeping light in the front that ran from side to side. The machine was TOTALLY silent. I KNOW that we STILL don't have that kind of technology. It was larger than a jet plane and didn't resemble anything that I have ever observed before. Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?Definitely not of our earth technology. Witness BackgroundI was a flight attendant at the time and now am a Registered Nurse. Views on UFOs, before and after sightingAfter seeing one this close first-hand. I have NO DOUBT that we are being visited by an other -worldly visitor. Other CommentsI wish there had been sights like this years ago so I could have recorded this event at the time it happened. Now, I'm not even sure of the year it happened so long ago.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)cigar shaped. Orange in color but brighter in intensity than venus. Size of Object(s)I could have covered it with my index finger outstretched Distance to Object(s) & Altitude50,000 feet Description of Area / Surroundingsoutskirts of town. sparse country side. Oak trees. Full Description & DetailsI heard my father pull into the front driveway at our house. I went outside to see what was going on because it sounded like he had hit something with the car. I opened the door to see my Dad standing outside looking up at the night sky. He asked me if I could see the orange light that was moving in odd patterns through the night sky. I told him that I could and asked him what he thought it was, he didn't know. We watched it for 10-15 minutes when I decided to grab my rifle for a better look. All I could see was a bright orange light. My father grabbed a spotting scope and said that the light appeared cigar shaped.
Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?it wasn't a planet, my dad used to teach astronomy at the college. I don't believe it was man made, it was silent and moved very slowly and was very bright. Much brighter than the lights on an aircraft Witness BackgroundI am a veteran from the US army also I attend a private christian university Views on UFOs, before and after sightingI just know that sometimes people see things that they cannot explain. This isn't the first time that I have seen something nor do I hope it's my last. Reported Sighting?YesReported To:sacromento air commandYour Location:redding ca usaAge:26 |

Description of Area / Surroundingsurban. the event took place at very high altitude. Full Description & DetailsIs Kim Jong-Il trying to start a nuclear war before his son kicks his rotten old ass out of office? Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?The fast fireball trail and sparks could have been a satellite breaking up as it entered the atmosphere, except then the red-orange starlike object continued along a slower, definite path toward the south. Maybe it was re-entry of a fusion battleship like the one that strafed Beijing airport a few months ago.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)A comet except it was slow moving and appeared to be appeared to be propelled. Description of Area / SurroundingsWe sighted it from a rural area. The object was going out over the Pacific. Full Description & Detailsat about 9:45 p.m. Pacific time we saw a lit fiery flying object with a tail of light at first...heading South across the sky over the ocean. The tail disappeared and then it almost burnt out but then it flared up again with a puff of smoke and continued across the sky.
