Appearance / Description of Object(s)It changed shape it was the shape of a triangle at one point then and appeared to be moving or spinning around itself it would shimmer from the suns reflection making it look like a star . It would glow luminous white and change shape Size of Object(s)1 inch Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeIt was at a planes altitiude Description of Area / SurroundingsDowntown Sacramento Full Description & DetailsI (I am Employed by the State of California 12 years ) was in my backyard on the 18th of July at 6:30pm watering the lawn I happen to look up and there is this object to the North stationary as in not going in any direction but moving or rotating and changing shape I think because the object was reflecting the sun which made it really hard to see it would twinkle like a star would except for the sun was still up and this thing was much lower than a star as I was watching this thing it looked like it was changing shape and that it was giving off some kind of heat you know the wavy haze that comes of the pavement when you look down a road when its hot in the summer time? At that point I knew it wasn’t a plane and I called my roommate he told me to get his video camera which I did. When I got back outside, this thing had moved to the south east. It was my first time using it and I spent most of that hour trying to get as much video as I could which I did the video didn’t come out as good as I had hoped. I had problems keeping the camera still when it was zoomed in on this object. But you can clearly see this thing wasn’t a plane and it changes shape. At one point I saw a commercial airliner fly right past this thing. I wish I had got that on tape but I didn’t. The pilot had to have seen this thing. My roommate (He is a network manager for an architectural company) came home at 7:30pm I pointed this thing out to him although this thing was further away at this time and he agrees with me this thing was no plane and neither he nor I could explain it. The object kept moving to the southeast and we wanted to see if we could see this object on the tape so we went inside to check it out.
Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?absolutely not Witness BackgroundI work for the Legislative Counsel Bureau of California at the Legislative Data Center going on 12 years Views on UFOs, before and after sightingI am well educated on the subject I have always been interested in the subject Other CommentsUp to this day I don't know what made me turn around and look up at this thing. I am into UFO sightings it has always facinated me but I wouldn't normally look up in the daytime to look for one much less when I was preoccupied. Somthing made me specifically turn around and look up. But I am glad it did. Reported Sighting?YesReported To:Mufon, NUFORCName:Chris BassettYour Location:Sacramento , CA, USAAge:36 |
