Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The object was round, silverish, and had slowly blinking green/blue lights around the perimeter. The bottom was relatively flat. the top sloped up to a "dome-like cockpit" with windows. The object made a whirring noise similar to a quieter turbine engine.

Size of Object(s)

If I framed the object between my left and right hands, my hands would be about 3 feet apart.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

I estimate that the object was 150-200 feet in the air directly above me.

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was a flat, isolated stretch of rural Tennessee highway. The area was primary soybean and cotton fields. There were no other cars in either direction.

Full Description & Details

We were the only car on a long stretch of rural highway between Paris and McKenzie, Tennessee. It was a Sunday night and my roommate and I were returning to college. We were talking and listening to the radio. Suddenly, we saw streaks of light coming from the top of our windshield. There was no noise. From inside the car, we could not see the source of the light.

There were no other cars coming in either direction. We stopped the car on the road and got out. Directly above our car was a round disc-like object with windows. It had a raised dome "cock'pit" in the center of the top half. It was hovering and spinning effortlessly about 200 feet directly above us. It made a quiet whirring noise. The sparks of light had stopped. There were lights flashing on and off around the edges of the object.

We watched for approximately two minutes as the object stayed right above us and our car. Suddently, the object went from standing still to a startling speed in 1 or 2 seconds. It was several miles away and made a 90 degree turn to the east without ANY loss of speed. My roommate and I got back in our car to finish our journey to school. We were speechless for about 10 minutes. That night on the 10 o'clock news, it was reported that there were identical sightings of the same object in six different states.

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

No. The closeness of the object made it very easy to see. The most startling thing was the extreme speed it reached within 1-2 seconds and the 90 degree turn it made without any loss of velocity.

Witness Background

I am the CEO of four companies, post-graduate education, married and the father of four children.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Since a child, I was always interested in science fiction comic books and movies. I was always very open minded to the possibility of UFO and alien existence. After the sighting, I was even more convinced.

Other Comments

The closeness of the experience erased any and all doubt in mind.......this was definitely a UFO........and NOT a conventional (then or now) aircraft.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The craft was triangular in shape and had at least three white lights that alternated indiscernibly and perhaps one light in the middle of the craft. I know it was triangular because it would block out the stars that were illuminated behind it. It moved very slowly and made absolutely no sound and seemed to move in any direction in an indectable fashion. It seemed to be 'searching' or 'surveying' the area around our land.

Size of Object(s)

It's relative size was approximately 2 inches across. From my point of view I would estimate it's actual size to be 100+ feet across.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Rural area relatively undeveloped. The closest dwelling to us was 400+ feet away but had no exterior lighting on. Other dwellings were much further away and there were wooded areas and all but three sides of our property. The closest commercial site was at least one mile to the west of us. The property was located approximately 2 miles south of the the Straits of Juan De Fuca and 10-12 miles north of the Olympic Mountain Range near the Deer Park area. The property was 4-5 miles east of the Port Angeles city limits. There are several military sites located further east on the Straits of Juan De Fuca and along the Hood Canal and Puget Sound, including Whidby Island Naval Air Station, Bangor Nuclear Sub Station, Puget Sound Naval Shipyards, and several Coast Guard stations. It is also 'Urban Legend' that Port Angeles hosts several experimental facilities mainly located at the Farchild International Airport which was a base location for P-38 Lightning aircraft during WWII.

Full Description & Details

My now ex-husband and I were sitting out in our hot tub late one evening. It was very clear. We lived in a rural location just east of Port Angeles, Washington, just off Highway 101 on 3.4 acres of land. The surrounding property was also rural and owned by my husbands family. At that time, there were no commercial properties around our land. The stars were countless and you could even see the Milky Way. The night was very calm with no wind and there was no moon. We had no jets or bubbles going and the only sound was a slight hum from the heater in the hot tub. We had no exterior lights on as we used to enjoy star gazing from our backyard spa. And you could barely hear the light traffic from the highway about 1/4 of a mile away. As we sat gazing up at the stars, we saw what we thought, at first, was an airplane. This was not uncommon as Port Angeles has an international airport on the west side of the city. But soon, we noticed that this airplane was moving very, very slowly and it made no sound. We both commented on this and we waited for it to start making a normal airplane sound. That never happened. As we sat watching this craft, it flew from north to south across the sky. It never made a sound the entire time we witnessed it! This craft took at least twenty minutes to cross the entire sky and then when it got close to the Olympic Mountain Range to our south it shot off at a unusually high rate of speed. As the craft hovered slowly toward us, it had at least three white lights that appeared to be at the corners of it's triangle shape. We could see the outline of it because it blocked out the stars where it's mass was. Its lights seemed to change from one corner to another in a way that I can't explain. Only one light would be on at a time but it seemed that the lights would alternately come on and go off...for lack of a better explaination...without detection. The craft also undiscernibly seemed to move back and forth as it moved forward...again...without detection. Then, as it hovered over the top of us, it seemed that a light in the center of the craft rotated slowly around and then alighted on us. We both just sat there unable or unwilling to move. It was quite eerie! We both felt a strange sensation while the light was on us that we were visible and even 'scanned' or something by the occupant(s) of the craft. It is impossible to describe the feeling we both had. I am much more open-minded and enlightened than my 'ex', but even he felt somehow as if there was something extra-sensory about our experience that night. The light stayed on us for about 10 seconds and then the craft continued on in its slow, methodical survey. Neither of us spoke or moved for quite some time. We just watched this thing hover slowly off to the south and then it shot off over the mountains. We both agreed immediately that this was not any type of aircraft that we had ever seen or even heard about before. We still, to this day, swear that this was a UFO and most likely not of this world. We were not using any mind-altering drugs or drinking alcohol. My ex-husband and I are both respectable members of our community. It was an eerie incident and it changed both of our beliefs about extra-terrestrial life and the knowledge that we are definitely not alone in this huge universe!

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

ASOLUTELY NOT!!! Once again, I reiterate that if this craft was of this world, our government has some really cool technology and I wish they would let us in on it. If they do possess this technology it most likely came from another world during the mid-twentieth century incidents that are all too well publicized. If we do possess this technology, we have nothing to worry about in regards to national security!

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

My views before this sighting were not much different than they are now. It just solidified my beliefs. I have always felt that there must be other, perhaps more intelligent life in our vast universe. And quite frankly, I hope there is and I hope that they will be able and willing to help us when we completely muck up our planet!

Other Comments

I believe that we human beings have been directly influenced by beings from another place in our universe in our distant past. Perhaps as far back as 30,000 years ago. Somehow at that time in our evolution our development sped up quite considerably. My one hope is that the beings that affected our evolutionary path have been keeping tabs on us and who know, even have the abilities described in the many different religious beliefs throughout history and will know us and be able to discern who is forthright and deserving of reward, (aka, heaven) and who is not! If you have this hope also, it will be nice to meet you someday.

The craft appeared to be triangle in shape with a blue light at one corner, a red light at another and a white light at another. Other than that it was dark and we couldn't here any sounds that should have been made by a normal flying craft of this world.

Size of Object(s)

At approximatley 1/4 of a mile in distance, the craft appeared to be 1 inch across.

1/4 of a mile distance and an altitude of less than 100 feet from the ground.

rural area approximately 5 miles west of the town of Sequim, Washington. The closest commercial area would be Carlsborg, Washington which has a Costco and two gas stations and various other small businesses.

Full Description & Details

My boyfriend and I were camping at a friends property in the Dungeness Valley west of Sequim, Washington. It was just dark and we both noticed at the same time a craft of some sort south of us across the highway approximately 1/4 mile away. It was hovering, at times, but also seemed to be unexplainably moving to and fro without us being able to see it actually move. We both sat mesmerized at first, and finally we both asked at the same time "Are you seeing that?" I looked at him and he at me and we both looked back at the craft. It hovered and darted above some rural houses. It had alternating blue, red, and white lights, each seeming to be at each corner of what looked like a triangular shaped outline of the craft. It darted back and forth, although we both agreed later that we couldn't actually see it move decernably. It did this for about fifteen minutes and then it shot off to the south toward the Olympic Mountain Range. The place where is was hovering and darting was a rural area with no commercial dwellings that could have been responsible for an explaination of strange lights being broadcast from the ground or otherwise. The local airport was behind us about two or three miles and this craft was too low and too eratic in behavior to be an airplane or even a helicopter. It made absolutely no noise even though the night was calm and clear and we could see and hear cars and traffic on the highway between us and the craft. We both agreed that it was like nothing we had ever seen before and it couldn't be anything else but a UFO, most likely not of this world. If it is then our government has some really cool technology and we have nothing to worry about when it comes to national security!

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

Absolutely not!

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

This was not my first sighting but my most recent. I have also seen a tirangle like craft before and will write about it in another report form on this web site after finishing this one. I believe that there is life elsewhere in our universe and that this planet has been visited in the recent and ancient past. I'm not worried about invasion. I am worried about what they would think of us as human beings and what we have acheived and also what we have done to desecrate our beautiful home, and also our apathy and feined ignorance when it comes to what we know is wrong with our planet and yet we do nothing to stop and reverse the effects of the damage we have created.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

A flat, circular object with lights of many colors spinning around the sides. Seemed to be dark, but with the moon's rays hitting it, might have been a sort of chrome color. There was also a half-sphere dome on top with what seemed like one big window that went around it.

Size of Object(s)

Relatively, at my size now, from my wrist to my elbow it was probably about 1 1/2 inches covering the UFO. Actual size, I want to say maybe 100-200ft wide by 30 ft tall.

Description of Area / Surroundings

I have talked to my mom (whom seems to be the only one who believes me and is trying to help me) and she said that Norfolk had most of the military bases and such as well as Virginia Beach. Our neighborhood was kind of seperated from other neighborhoods. Also, I remember just a lot of trees surounding our area. Basically wherever you looked, you could spot the many trees around us.

Full Description & Details

Okay, this happened when I was about 6 or 7. I am now 15 and everyday I thought about what I saw, but my memory is slightly blurred at everything which happened.

I am guessing it was mid-fall and I was supposed to be in bed. Well, being fully awake, I remeber I got out of bed and walked towards my window. The window had no screen, so when I opened it, I sat down on the floor and rested my head on my arms that were crossed on the window sill.

We lived in a particular area where our neighborhood was fairly small and was completely surrounded by woods. There was also a lake nearby, but I am not sure the object I saw had anything to do with the lake. I remember it being a dark night though the stars were clearly visible.

Alright, so I was staring off into the distance, thinking I saw a deer run across one of the streets into the forest. I remember being completely focused on the forest, till out of the corner of my eye, something soared quickly across the sky. Looking up, I remeber standing up and poking my head outside, watching it. It seemed to have noticed me, or something else for it had slowed its pace to where I could clearly watch it. It was fairly close towards the neighborhood, though it hovered along the forest top at a steady pace. I wasn't quiet sure what exactly it was doing, but to me, I felt like it was searching for something.

This entire thing last about a minute or less, for I watched it hover for a little bit and then in a blink of an eye, it sped off... But when it did so, it seemed to still be descending or staying around the same altitude.

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

No. Though the stars were out, they were not set up in a way to like a object speeding across the sky towards the forest, stop suddenly and slowly hover above, and then speed off again. I don't believe anything like airplans or such could stop in a sudden moment and stay so perfectly still before moving along at a slow pace. Also, from where my house was, there was no way for blimps or weather balloons to be seen.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

At the time, I had read books on aliens, though they were only children books. I never believed in them before. I actually thought it was just a made-up fantasy. But that night changed it all, where I spent most of my time now trying to figure out what exactly it was that I saw, as well as following along with other mysteries like Roswell or Kecksburg. Yes, after that sighting, I now believe they exist.

Other Comments

I know what I saw. So many people doubt me and the only person Iwho actually believes me is my mother, whom has also been intruged in these object since she heard about Roswell. All I can say is, just because I was young does not mean it was my imagination, nor a dream. I got hurt in the process of finding my parents to tell them, so others have no right to doubt me. Besides, I still can see the object in my head and I know what happened for I was there.

Residential area in a small town (actually a village) in southern Ohio. Wright-Patterson AFB is about 45 miles away. The object was flying in that direction.

Full Description & Details

On a clear summer day in late June of 1965, my brother and I were visiting friends a few blocks away. I was 14 years old and my brother was 16. My brother was sitting on the porch talking with our friends, but I had drifted towards the edge of the road standing just outside the shade of a tree. I looked up into the sky and was watching the jet trail of a distant aircraft.

Suddenly, something caught my attention from the corner of my eye. I was still staring up into the sky and turned my head left towards what caught my eye. I saw a glowing sphere as it moved into view past the tree I was standing near. I yelled for my brother to come see, but I never took my eyes off the object. He was reluctant to come over. When he finally did and I was pointing at it, perhaps he focused on it for a second before it became hidden by the trees the next block over. He assured me that he had saw it, though.

So, since it disappeared from view when blocked by the trees one block away, it was relatively low in altitude. It looked as if it were 50 to 75 feet high and traveling about 20 miles an hour. It was a steady glowing blue with a kind of halo around it. It moved in a straight line maintaining a constant altitude. In other words, it didn't move up or down in the slightest way. The entire viewing time was a mere nine to ten seconds, but plenty of time to take in its features and know that it was something very unusual.

Despite the fact that it was a bright summer sky, I had no problem seeing it clearly. It made no sound, had no wings, windows, or protrusions of any kind. It appeared to be perfectly spherical in shape.

More recently, through the use of aerial photography, I measured the length from the trees of the street I was standing near, to the next block. That's how I got an estimate of it's speed. I also extended the line it was traveling, and it would have intersected Wright-Patt Field in Dayton. There may not have been a connection, but I wonder.

Later I joined the Navy and became an Electronic Warfare Technician. I had to be keenly aware of sounds and visual data. I've traveled around the world and have seen many military aircraft and natural phenomena, but never anything like this again. I saw a video (or film) on "In Search Of," or some show like it around 1978, and they showed a blue sphere flying about the same height over the tree tops around sunrise or dawn. I immediately said, "That's just like what I saw." The perspective was different of course. The video was shot from a side view, while I saw it almost directly above (about 80 degrees from horizontal). Nevertheless, the mind adjusts for this, and I instantly realized that this was how it would have looked, had I been further away.

That's what I saw. It wasn't Venus, a comet, fireworks, a balloon, or any other such thing. It was exactly as I've described. I don't make up stories for attention or any other reason. If I were inclined to make up stories, I could make up a more exciting one than this. Also, I'm not on drugs nor do I have any mental disorders (at least not that I'm aware of). LOL. So, for what it's worth, I assure you this happened.

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

It can't be explained by a natural object. It could be man-made, though I'm not aware of such an aircraft. Perhaps an object for surveillance. It flew perfectly horizontal and had a means of propulsion, so it was being flown or guided by some kind of intelligence.

Witness Background

I was in the U.S. Navy for 8 years and held a Secret clearance. I was honorably discharged and am a Viet Nam vet, as a sailor serving aboard an aircraft carrier. I have a degree in electronics with a computer major.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Before this I hadn't really thought about UFOs. Later when I joined the Navy, I did read books on UFOs and other unexplained things. I also read books on psychology, meditation, and hypnosis as well.

13 pairs of lights, one blue and one red. not blinking or pulsing. quite steady. arranged in an arc with the points oriented down, or perhaps just pointing eastward.

Holding my fingers straight out from my shoulders, the arc would just fit between my fingers. (about 12-13 inches apart) Each pair of lights would fit in a 1/4 inch space between my fingers at arms length.

Description of Area / Surroundings

rural farm area. 5-10 acre or so fields separated by lines of trees.

Full Description & Details

Having seen the video of the phoenix lights, and now a page on the Lubbock Lights, I figured I should let my story be known. I have told all my friends about it at one time or another, whenever the subject of UFOs comes up.

In the spring of 1987, I, my brother, and some friends (5 total) were riding through the countryside of Southeast Michigan, near Milan, one night. We were talking about UFOs and pulling out our ghost stories. We were having a good time. One of us, in the back seat of the car as I recall, said that he saw something, and I pulled over. We got out and saw in the sky an arc of lights at a relative elevation to us of about 45 degrees.

These lights were not moving at all, and were paired red and blue lights. We were not very far from the Detroit Metro Airport (DTW) but we all thought it strange that there would be a precise formation of helicopters just hovering there. Then, the two sets on the extreme right and the two sets on the extreme left (the arc was oriented with the ends pointing down/away from us) detached from formation, started moving towards each other, passed in the middle, and took each others' place on the opposite sides.

I think we counted 13 sets in all making up this formation. I'm pretty sure of that number. The lights stayed in that position for so long making absolutely no sound or movement whatsoever, that even though we were convinced that the lights were UFOs, we got bored looking at them and just got in the car and drove away. Not a very exciting sighting, but it adds to the data heap I hope.

It is interesting to note that my brother told me he saw some ufo program wherein the same thing we saw was described on TV, and the sighting had appeared in Sweden. The person who had seen it drew a picture and showed it on the program.

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

I think it was an aircraft test, by humans. I don't think it was conventional, unless you can make 13 helicopters completely silent at a range of one mile.

Witness Background

Printer, mechanic, inventor (not a great one, just compulsive), writer, linguist, arithmetophobe.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I believe UFOs are advanced technology. Built by humans, but revealed by spiritual agents. I believe there is a conspiracy between those who really know about it, and that there is a huge investigative structure in place that is constantly being fed misinformation about them. I have had abnormal dreams concerning UFOs and it is apparent to me that the spiritual agents concerned are not "nice" in the conventional sense of that term.

People need to examine what motivates them from their inner beings, and discern consciously whether or not they are a part of the solution to the world's Problem, which is lack of selfless love. It is not a light thing. There is hope.

I was standing on my front porch and my family was in the house, I was enjoying the view when I saw and airplane or what looked like one next door. It was solid black and smooth and It looked like a stealth plane, but there was no noise. we lived 30 miles south of oklahoma city and it was hoovering over one of our neighbors house and I watched it for about 5 minutes before it finally slowly came my way right over my house. If I stood on the house I could have touched it. I was so close to the ground, I saw 4 lights one on each corner and one in the middle. I don't know the semetrics of the craft and I have never told anyone, except my husband until now. I thought it was just the stealth untill I started hearing of other sightings. As it passed my house very slowly it took of very fast and high in the sky and toward the city and disappeared within a few seconds. It didn't even take one full minute to disappear from sight.

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

I don't know unless the stealth can be silent like that. Why would it hoover that close to the ground and in a small insignificant town like bridgecreek. there was no sound at all.

I have studied space my whole life and have always believed in life on other planets, but never thought that I would see a real one, still kind of skeptical about it. I believe in UFO's a little more now. I have read alot more since then and studied on them a little more.

Other Comments

I just wanted to finally tell someone about this. I do not want any recognition for this. I want to remain anonymous. It really did happen and pray ever day to see it again, but never have. I love space and science, I always have. I study weather and astronomy, but not ufo's. I would however like to see one again someday. If that is what infact I did see.
