Date:

September, 25, 2010

Location:

Anza, California, United States

Summary:

Bright red-orangish fire ball traveled across the sky- first appearing as a bright white shooting star, changing then to a red comet with a long tail, which turned to smoke as the red-orange fire ball traveled miles across the horizon from NW to SW for about 5 min. (Editor's note: This event was a launch of a Minataur rocket. Photos and videos of this type of rocket launch can be seen by searching on Google for 'Minataur rocket launch'. This applies to all the other reports that we have received for the same date in this area of California.)

Just above the mountains, traveled with the horizon line for approximately 100 miles

Description of Area / Surroundings

Over a mountain, not rural. We live on a 20 acre ranch in a town with a small population between Temecula and Palm Desert. The object was traveling from our NW sky (LA) to SW (San Diego)

Full Description & Details

Sept. 25, 2010 Anza, CA (our house sits on a mountain at 5000 feet over looking a valley and opposite mountain range- Anza is an hour between Temecula and Palm Desert)

Last night around 9:30-10pm pst, my step-son and I were out watching the stars and he got excited and noticed a "shooting star" he said. I turned to look where he was pointing (NW) and saw what then appeared to be a bright redish comet with a long tail trailing behind. He said when he saw it, it was bright white and almost blinded him (this is when it must have entered our atmosphere), then changing into a comet headed south in the sky. We quickly alerted the rest of the family (3 other pre-teen children and my husband) who came out and witnessed with us, what WASN'T a "shooting star" or "comet". The tail turned into a cloud of smoke as this large bright redish orange fire ball continued to travel south across the horizon. We watched it for a few minutes as it flew south, then it puffed another cloud of smoke and seemed to excellerate leaving a trail of smoke in it's wake and sped up traveling south still. It disapeared, reapeared, continued to fly south across our horizon and after watching it for about 5 min it just vanished. This was intelligently controlled, and AMAZING to see! The distance the large glowing ball traveled was from NW to SW- and had to have covered many, many miles as it crossed our entire horizon looking over the valley.

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

NO WAY!!!!!

Witness Background

Summary:

Star-like object that glowed orange and seemed to eject a cloud

Date Reported:

9/25/2010 11:55:01 PM

Sighting Time: 

around 10:30 PM

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

No. of Witnesses: 

3 of us saw it clearly. 2 saw part of it.

Duration: 

3 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

It looked like a star/planet, but then it changed from white to orange , then dimmed and a puff of smoke or a cloud seemed to appear to the right of it. What was stranger is that the cloud left a trail like a jet behind it (slower, though).

Size of Object(s)

Hard to say.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

Can't estimate that either.

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was over Simi Valley, California - not too populated - urban.

Full Description & Details

We were driving home on the 118 after seeing a movie and I noticed a large star in the sky. It wasn't blinking and I thought it was Jupiter. I told my future-astronaut son to look and he said it wasn't Jupiter, that Jupiter was higher above and to the right of the the moon. This was lower in the sky. Suddenly, as we were all watching it (except for my husband, who was driving) it got brighter - orange - then dimmed, then a cloud appeared to come out of it and move to the right leaving a cloud-like trail. We were going up a large hill and my husband pulled off of the freeway. By the time we all focused again the cloud seemed to dissipate.

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

Possibly. Can't think of what it could be, though.

Witness Background

I help run an online nanny service. I'm a wife, mom, author, and I used to teach computer software to adults.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I've seen things in the sky since I was a kid. I guess I just want proof.

Other Comments

I'll just add my 5-year-old daughter's comment regarding if an alien comes to earth. Her advice - "If they're nice, just say hi. If they're bad, run for your life!"

Summary:

We watched ufo enter atmosphere very fast as if it were a big comet of some sort. Not a shooting star but bigger. As it came in it was real bright white then slowed down and glowed orange and then puffed a cloud of smoke, and all of a sudden disappeared then reappeared and continued to cruise along only to disappear again left to be unseen. I watched it with two other witnesses that could not explain what they just witnessed. Im not a ufo nut or anything but I know what I saw and it wasnt a man made craft OF ANY SORT !!

Full Description & Details

We were sitting at our campsite by the Cape Cod Canal in Bourne, MA and we saw two objects flying above the canal. I had just come out of the RV. They were orange in color and closely resembled the flame of a candle. They proceeded to fly down the canal and no engine noise could be heard. There were three of us who witnessed this. They were out of sight within 1 – 2 min. They were the weirdest things I have ever seen. They were traveling as if following each other.

i really dont know

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

about 3-5 miles away, 5000 feet AGL or maybe less

Description of Area / Surroundings

Semi urban rural, beach side town

Full Description & Details

I was fishing off the pier in surf city, north carolina; i am stationed at marine corps air staion new river about 20 minutes north. I am a crew chief on uh-1n helicopters. I know the flight carachteristics of all air craft in the military and what they look and sound like when flying. As i was fishing one night, i was facing south, and a light to the west caught my eye. The hueys and cobras that i work and fly on like to fly around the pier and in the channels, its kind of a nice view. So I thought it may have been one of the aircraft from my air station. But I nnoticed that the light, which was a glowing red and white, wasnt realy moving. Had it been a jet, you would see it moving at a high rate of speed, say if it was a harrier or a prowler from mcas cherry pointe, more north than new river. But it didnt move fast at all, it realy didnt move at all, just very slowly upward. I know that it was moving upward due to the fact that as crew chiefs, we are taught that if all else fails, use the stars as a guide for whatever you may need. i notived it was moving upward as compared to the stars. And there was no anticollision light in the surrounding area of the light. An anticollicion light is either white or red, and flashes at night. It always flashes, that is the light you see going off on airplanes at night which makes them noticable at night to the naked eye. Every aircraft must have on a smack light, as they are referred to; unless they are doing night operations and the smack light is infrared, in that case you wouldnt see any lights at all. So I'm watching this light, and it doesnt make any kind of sense to me as to what it could possibly be, i work around all types of aircraft, i see them all the time, every night. But this was like notihng ive seen. It continued to move up, and then all of a sudden, it was gone, like it died out. There was nothing left it was like someone just turned off the light switch.

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

It could have been an airplane, but like stated, i watch aircraft everynight it didnt have any characteristics of aircraft that surround the north carolina coast

Witness Background

Uh-1n crew chief, united states marine corps. we fly around north carolina all the time, day and night time. part of our training is to study other aircraft and learn how they fly, their tactics; used in a wartime atmosphere. We need to know who and what we are flying and fighting against.

Full Description & Details

My neighbour came to my door at about 21:30 grasping a camera and asking for my dad, a senior police officer. He was out, but I asked him what was wrong and he explained that he had seen six red/yellow lights hovering above a field behind a residential estate. He said that he looked at them for several minutes, just petrified and he ran home and got his camera. He returned to find them still there, but when he raised his camera, they started to disperse upwards and "woosh" away into the sky. He took a single photograph, as they left and then returned to the housing estate straight to my door.

Look at the photo, decide for yourself. But we think that it's not of this world.
