Appearance / Description of Object(s)

2-3 times bigger than a regular star at night. You could tell it was some sort of metal judging from its shinyness and siler look. You could definetly tell that it was round. It moved in different patterns while the plane seemed to stay on the same path. Also Judging by how far away it was probably I would say at least 200 feet across such as a diameter would be.

Size of Object(s)

It was probably about 200 feet across judging by how far away but the 200 feet across is by how a diameter

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

80,000 feet in the air, seeing it from about 32,000 feet to 36,000 feet.

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was above land about quarter to half way between Salt Lake City, Utah and Cancun, Mexico

Full Description & Details

I was flying back from my Spring Break trip to Cancun, Mexico and while on the flight back to Salt Lake City, Utah at about I would say 36,000 feet or so (pretty high up there becuase you could tell from it being about 12:00 P.M. day light and it starting to look a little darker up there). I saw a roundish object I would estimate at about probably 80,000 feet becuase of its size out size my window up and to the side of the plane. This was somewhere between quarter of the way to almost half way to Salt Lake. I was sitting on the plane watching the end of the movie the Incredibles and so it was showing the credits and so I figured thats kind of boring to watch so I decided to look out side of the window to see if I could tell where we were. I just happened to look up towards the stars and I saw this metallic roudish object off in the distance. I then told my friend to hurry and check this out figuring it to maybe be a satellite. So he looked over and since it happened to be in the distance about 2 to 3 times bigger than a regular star you would see at night and him not wearing his contacts it made it rather difficult for him to see. Then all of a sudden it started moving around in different type of patterns. I then hurried through my carry-on bag to get my disposable camera, but by the time I had gotten my camera it was gone.

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

All though it could have been a Satellite, I do not think that a Satellite could make the different patterns in the air that it did, while the plane seemed to be on a steady course.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Before seeing it I had heard things about sightings from Television shows and figured it could be possible considering that there has to be something other than just humans out there in the Universe. After I have decided to read other peoples stories to see if they relate to mine, and I will believe to this day.

No visible body. three bright lights. no blinking lights. sky was dirty brown.

Size of Object(s)

Relative sizes was about 4 or 5 inches. Actual size would have to be at least a fourth of a football field long.couldn't see width.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

It was pretty close in both directions.

Description of Area / Surroundings

The surrounding area is: there is a two story building below the UFO. I was in a back yard about four feet from the deck. There is a main road that was almost dead quiet. wasn't much light at the moment. The moon wasn't visible. There is a hospital that has a helicopter pad but they weren't in town. There is an Air port that is quiet a bit a ways from where I am.

Full Description & Details

Very big. No visible body. Moved slowly across the sky. No blinking light no sound. Then it just vanished. It was visible for at least three miutes. The sky was a dirty brown. It had to have been at least a fourth of a football field long. Never changed direction. It just took of really quickly.

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

No I don't think it can I went through all possible reasons. None could explain what I saw. I called a woman that I know at a hospital and she said that there were helicopters flying around but there wasn't any sound.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The object was in the night sky, and by far I know that it was not a star or planet. It was lightly cloudy, so the shape of the object in the sky wasn't too impossible to make out. It seemed like a circular object, but I'm not overly sure. The object only seemed as if it was shaking, and barely moving what so ever. In fact, it just looked like it spectated the ground moving back and forth in the sky. It may of also rotated - the lights on it seemed to flicker white, red, orange, blue, and other tints of these colors.

Size of Object(s)

At least as small as a 1MM all around. From where it would look like in a plane, an estimated guess of about 50ft wide by 30ft tall.

Description of Area / Surroundings

We live around openings and small clumps of trees, as well as a small rock wall. We also rarely had freezing rain, so icicles were not out that night to my knowledge. We live in a rural surrounding, about 1000 feet down the road is the junkyard and some farms. We also live around 500 feet across from the Walmart Distribution Center, and a Fed-Ex building close by our home. We also have a national guard station located down Alfred Plourde Parkway, which is not very far from the Walmart Distribution Center.

Full Description & Details

One night in February, as I recall it was a saturday night, the 25th, I was watching "Silence of the Lambs" on TV. I believe it was rerunning that night, so I decided to watch it. The time was around 2 AM, and the movie was barely into playing. I am rarely tired on Saturday nights, as well, so I was still wide awake before the sighting occured. I was laying in bed, a bit bored of being on the computer, but then suddenly, a very small, and very unnoticable flash went off in the sky - to be a little more descriptive, like someone took a picture high up in the sky, with a tiny flash. It instantaneously caught my eye, and I walked over to the window. I live in the basement, so I have a fairly good view of the outside. But something strange I noticed - the object that flashed was still in the sky, a hard to see object. I'm unsure whether or not it was triangular or a circular shape, but in my mind I saw it as a circular object. I watched the object move around - in fact, it didn't move around. It staggered around in the sky, almost like when you stick your finger out and it shakes. However, it was shaking at a very light rate. I closed up into the window to make absolutely sure it was no an icicle off a tree - but it couldn't be. It was in a small clearing of bare trees above the new WalMart distribution center in Lewiston, and I had complete ability to view it in all perspectives. I angled myself around the window, and I noticed absolutely no change - it still moved around. What made this stranger is that I knew it was NOT a plane, nor a helicopter. The object was closer, and farther away at points in time, but only small movements. It was fairly high in the sky I should say, at least a bit higher than what an airplane would fly in. Due to my window's blurriness, I couldn't make out what it was exactly doing. I had went to report this to another UFO site, checked back, and the object was still there. It was 2: 59 AM; by this time, I looked back outside, and the object appeared to be gone. What makes this strange is that it was completely gone from view. I did not see any flashing, or tickering of the light recessing from it. I also checked nearly 1 minute after viewing it the second time, and it was in what seemed like the same location. This was the last I saw of the object.

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

The issue is that I know of no stars out there. It was a cloudy/clear night, from where the object was, it was below the clouds. Animals and certain light bugs can't float this long, and planets do not dissipate from someone's view in 10 minutes. Along with man made objects, I rarely see satellites, airplanes, or blimps sitting in one spot for nearly 9 minutes, and then disappearing. It was also late night, meaning some man made objects would not of been out at around 3 AM.

Witness Background

I am 15 years old, I know much about history and some of science, a student at the local high school. Already I do game design, animation, and some of my hobbies include playing games and watching the news. If I could give more credibility to my character, I would, but in the rights of censorship, I declare to justify none other than where I go to school and what I do, but I will not give out more.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I knew quite a bit beforehand - I learned a lot about UFOs from the History channel and I know about a few of the bigger events, such as the Phoenix Lights and Roswell incident. On occasion, I feel sometimes a bit paranoid of UFOs from abductions and events in time.

Other Comments

I realize some people would think this is a hoax, but I truly saw a UFO. I can't distress this message any further, and to my belief, considering this event to be false is almost constitution for nothing. I had taken my liberty of seeing my own UFO, this is the second one I've sighted. My first had been a similar triangular shaped UFO, that flew in the sky and headed off south. I allegedly know of events that have led up to this, and I know by far that whatever in the sky was not man-made, nor was it another object. I even get paranoid on the occasion, as said before, if I see one. Even after February 25th, I've looked out my window just to see if the UFO will ever come back.

Full Description & Details

Hi. I have witnessed this unexplainable happenings in Illinois in 1975. I lived in Granite City for 12 years. I now reside in Georgia. Strange happenings here too. In 1975, my brother, his girlfriend and I went around the block from where we lived. It was Winter and we went to iceskate on the field behind a Church. ( Maryville Road). The field had frozen over and we had until 10:00 p.m. to skate. When we got to the field it was quite and the sky was full of Snow clouds. But shortly after we arrived we noticed a brightness. We looked up and there were 3 white beams shining down. No sound was made but it covered a Huge area.. Couldn't see where the lights came from( spaceship?) but the lights were in a triangular shape shining through the clouds and there was a Red one present. The Clouds were too thick.. We watched and waited for 10 to 15 minutes... And it just vanished.. No sound of it was ever made.. In 1975 you didn't hear of anyone trying to find out what these sightings are.. you were considered Crazy if you talked about it... But I think it's Great now that We Want To Know.. and We're digging into it.. I would still like to know what it was that night... The sightings here in Georgia are different.. But I would like the Witnesses in Illinois to know that their not seeing things.. These sightings are REAL...!!!! Thank you for giving me this moment to Tell you what I witnessed in 1975, in Granite City Illinois.. God Bless.

Sincerely

Cindy Mobley

i was working an insurance debit. i turned onto Fikes Ferry road and directly in front of me was below, about 4 to 10 miles away.

Object had seven lights in a circle. Larger light in the center.

I watched about ten minutes as it hovered in one place. The center light would brighten and smoke would rise from it when bright, then it would get dimmer. T the circle lights remained at a constant brightness.

after about ten minutes. I drove down the road to a customer and called them out to watch.

We all three watched about 20 minutes and the woman and I went inside to get her money.

A few minutes later,he came in and said it is gone. I asked him which way it went. He said it just disapeared.

what was strange was how slow it was moving for an after dark flying machine and no noise like an engine or pony motor running, we were close enough to have heard something definitely not a star or planet

this was surely some sort of not common flying machine, i truly do not know what it was & wish i had soken w/ some of the other cars that had stopped & watched

I went on a 1/2 day trip up to Volcano Poas and on the way back as we entered the city we noticed everyone looking up in the sky. We tried looking out the windows of the minibus to see what they were looking at. It was in the middle of the day and was a light the moved very little for about an hour or more.

NO MILITARY. CITY. POWER PLANT ABOUT 3 MILES AWAY E.S.B. IRELAND

Full Description & Details

A bright yellow object passed over Dublin city Ireland in oct. 1957 at about 7.30p.m.

I was kicking a peice of dry hard bread to my friend across the road outside my house

where I lived. On waiting for my friend to return same I noticed in the corner of my right

eye an object above.I was 13 years old at this time and knew this was not the moon

because it was in a position the moon would never be over Dublin.

On first look it was hovering no sound over me very high in the sky but under the clouds,

this I remember very well.

After about 3 or 4 sec. it started to move to the north west' and it was only then I called

my friend as I was in a world of my own enjoying my 3 or 4 sec. of somthing I must

have known was not normal.

My friend ran across the road to see it , but as it zig zaged quickly to the north west he

missed it. I then ran into my house to tell my parents who at the time were watching

B.B.C. t.v. Before I could tell them the whole story my mother said I had seen somthing

as the picture from t.v. went blank for some time at the same time u.f.o. was overhead.

This is a true story and would not tell a lie as it involed my mother and father who are

now dead.

Full Description & Details

(From Brief) I think it hovered over me because I saw it and was staring at it. It was forked shape, two pointy triangular prongs side to side like wings with another pointing forward, a ball shape in the middle tha glowed with a orange light. It was hovering about 100 feet. The 'wings' and 'cockpit' didn't look like it was connected to the ball thing even the it was in the middle of them. I saw some kind of exsaust coming from the back. I also have to mention that it was a cloudy day that day and it appeared to be right under the clouds as if hiding.

Maybe it was a model plane.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

It was probably about 50 feet diameter. When it swearved over us, it was pretty close and pretty fast so I wasn't paying to much attention to it. I know for a fact that it was circular. I saw that much. It was extremely lit up and I don't know how tall it was. I didn't notice that. I was too shocked to pay very much attention to it. I think it was grey. Probably a steel or something shell.

Size of Object(s)

Relative size: Well, when it was probably right above us, when I mostly saw it, it was probably almost a foot. It was close. And like I said before, I think it was about 50 feet in diameter. I couldn't tell how tall it was but I think it was fairly thin. I wasn't paying much attention though because of the shock.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Rural. Lots of trees and mountains sorrunding. The town that it is near is a very small town, Republic. It has a small population of about 1000 people and there is also ( I just remembered this) a small old ghost town pretty close to Storm King.

Full Description & Details

Well, I was with a friend up at Storm King in Republic, Washington a couple of weeks ago and we heard a loud noise going by. We figured it was a airplane, but when we saw it, it was a big circular craft. It sort of kept going down and swooping back up and then it just flew off. When it went over us, it was probably no more than 100 feet above us. It was all too real. I could feel the huge rush of air and the loud noise hurt my eyes. It didn't sound like our normal jets. It had a sort of buzz to it. As soon as I looked back up it was already swooping into the air and we didn't see it after that. I thought I was seeing things, but when l turned to my friend, who was still on the ground, I could tell it really happened. We didn't say anything about it for a couple of weeks after that, but a couple of days of go I brought it up slightly to my friend. He didn't want to talk about it at first, but I convinced him that it was something important that we need to share our feelings about. So we got on the internet and found this site and decided to share with others what we've gone through and see what others have gone through. I'm really glad there's people out there that we can share our experience with. I never really believed in other civilizations off of earth and I even used to laugh about these sort of things when I heard about them. I thought they were just people that were trying to get attention. But now after my personal experience with my friend, I see that this is more than just a tale that people make up to get attention. My friend will submit his own about what he saw soon.

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

I don't think it could be any of that sort unless someone made a craft that looked life it. I guess a man could've made it.

Witness Background

I am a docter and work at the hospital.
