Have you seen an Unidentified Flying Object?

I jessemole, I am glad that you came on board! I am interested to hear more of your experiences. You said that you have had many encounters over the years, can you take time to share what you have seen? Thanks ,Antar

Antar,

Again thanks for asking!

I recall the first time when I was about 8 years old, my bedroom was down stairs of our home with a large Window looking out into the fields behide our back yard, While I laid there waiting for sleep to overcome me by looking at the Stars and thinking about what a 8 year old thinks about... Came this streak of light out over the field behide us, and then stop, right there, motionless, looking like a star. Then, within less then minute I guess. came five more from different directions at the same type of speed, and stop. Now I'm thinking.... Star's don't move like that, this had my attention. However, while I continued to look for them from the point of where they came into my vision, they became the same glow of the Star's around. Until, within the time stamp of 5 minutes, All of them left in the same direction of entry, with what appeared to be faster then they arrived.

Now keep in mind, this was the 2nd time I did not question what was being seen here, I just did not have a answer.

More Later on other encounters!

I must sleep in order to support your sleeping habits....

Jessemole.

yes i have seen a alien spaceship^^
i was younger
one night lookin at the window and i saw it a plate shaped red light object next to the top of the hotel
it was very slowly moving around i dont know how far was in perspective
it was kinda changing color from red to orangy red and period
then it just goed on one side faster and faster and begun dissapearing
IT WAS AMAZING

Unisol yes it is amazing! I think that the reddish oragngy color usually happens before they leave our atmosphere. When you see the yellowish golden or multi colored they are hanging around for a bit.

jessemole I can totally relate. It is beautiful how children seem to accept this kind of phenomenon without question, they tend to accept things in a way that adults tend to over examine. Did you begin to have any unusual reoccurring dreams from that time forward to adolescence and then they went away during puberty and possibly reappear again after? just wondering...

I have always looked forward to the sightings that I have had , but you know I have to say that I feel like the darker forces have moved into our galaxy and it would be wise to remember there is good and bad in all things. Many of the observers are making their presence known but I urge you to tread with caution and don't trust that all are benevolent. If there is a mass sighting it is wise to go about your business remain practical and grounded. I am sorry if this takes our thread off topic a bit, just wanted to share that thought.

Hello, I live in Chandler AZ. I saw the phoenix lights back in '97. I was working at a semi-conductor plant in Tempe on a swing shift (3:30-12:00) We had a half hour lunch from 8-8:30. Hale-bopp was in the northwestern sky and we were watching it when a row of lights in the north caught our attention. We watched it as it moved slowly towards us. At first we thought it might be planes in formation but as it got closer we quickly realized it wasn't that. It moved directly over our heads, silent and slow, probably about 30-40mph. It blotted out the stars as it passed over us. No one spoke while it was nearby, we were all focused on the object above us. It was about the size of a football field and was around 1000-1500 in the air. The object then swung slowly over to the I-10 freeway nearby and follwed it south towards Tucson, or at least that was the direction it was heading till it went out of sight.
I have replayed this event in my head every day since.

I've seen something that falls under the "orb" category. I was laying out by our fountain at school (Conway, AR) watching the early evening sky while waiting on a friend. It was close to 7pm and while the sky was still light there were a few early stars out. There is an airport near the campus; however, this object was moving far to slow to be a plane and it had no wing lights nor any blinking lights. Crossing through my line of sight from behind me came a bright orb. It did not appear to be in much of a hurry. It flew no higher than what appeared to be 40 feet above the tree line and proceeded in a straight, un-deviating path towards the southwest. I was on the phone with my mother at the time...i should have hung up on her and took some pics of it...i feel like an idiot now but at the time it just didn't seem like the thing to do.

Hello Antar!

Considering it's currently raining outside, I can't get back to working on my Deck, I'd check in... Well my 3rd time what I came to witness was when I was in Basic Training for the Army, we were in our 4th week of this training when we went into Night Fire Range, this is where you attempt to shoot at targets at night using tracer ammo to get a feel for that type of event. Keep in mind I was station in Fort Knox Kentucky, There are Mountains all around this state, our position from the fireing range put us in the middle of three of these that surrounded the base. We were blasting away at our target, when all of sudden, this Very Large glowing object came from below the conture of valley, and just hovered there. The entire Platoon that were shooting, came to a silence, no one was shooting. The only noise that came our ears was that of the Range Sargent telling us to keep fireing.... No one did. While he was yelling all this time, this massive shape starting to slowly move away from us and through the valleys until it was out of sight, at that moment it was gone, everyone began to fire at their targets once again.

Now after our practice was completed that evening, we got back into formation, and started to March Five miles back to Base... During that time, there were wispers through out the Platoon, As to what the Hell was that! The Drill Sargent for the entire march back kept saying keep quiet when someone spoke regarding this....

This was back in 1973.


I would be interested in knowing if there may be a member(s) here that also recalls that event... After all, it was not just me that witness this.

I'll have more later, or sooner if it does not stop raining.

Later, Jessemole

I saw something very similair to this video. It was in 95 or 96 on camp pendleton. Same kind of light, but a bit closer, it was stationary for 10 to 15 min, then it began to move up and to the right at about a 45 degree angle somewhat slowly, then it just shot off very fast for 20 to 30 yards and exploded, kind of like when fireworks go off. This was witnessed by about 50 to 60 marines, any way, a week or so later when we were finished training and went back to our barracks our first seargent was trying to find out what it was, since it was about in the middle of the base, he told us that he was told that it was a weather rocket? I dont know of any rocket that can stay in one spot in the air for 10 to 15 min, but thats what we were told.

I saw my first UFO three years ago. I wasn't a believer of any sorts. I mean, I was curious about life on other planets and all, but I mostly thought that UFO reports weren't to be trusted. This kinda shook that mindset a bit, haha.

Here's the picture I've drawn of it, as I didn't have a camera at the time:


Key:
Gray area - where houses and such are. Above that on the mountainside, there's nothing but a footpath or two. NO roads.

Yellow - one of the largest buildings before it goes to wilderness. Think medium mansion kind of size.

Blue - reservoir that was being built at the time. The UFOs were almost right over it, so it sticks out in my memory.

And the white asterisk is roughly the point where they disappeared at the end of the sighting.

The green obviously represents the UFOs -- the large "mother" craft that was generally in the center, and then the swarm of little ones that were around it. There were 10-20 of these small ones.


What happened:
I'd woken up at around 5:00 a.m. My cat had been sleeping at my feet, but she jumped off -- the movement startled me and I decided to get up and follow her. I figured I'd have to pee anyway.

I walked down the hall and to the kitchen, thinking she'd gone there. I didn't see her anywhere, but I moved toward the window anyway, as I wanted to look at the stars -- not often that I got to see them at that hour. We've got a pretty good view of the mountains from our backyard (they're the same ones that are in my avatar); if I walked to the bottom of them, it would only take me 25 minutes or so, so they're not very far.

Anyway, the green lights that you see in the picture are as I saw them when I first clapped eyes on them, only they were a little lower. The big one in the middle only moved up (very slowly) towards the peak, but the little ones were darting everywhere. Not at the insane speed of an insect or a bird or whatever, but in a deliberate, slower sort of way. They'd stop here and there, then after a few moments they'd move on again. Even though they kept fairly close to the main "craft", the thing's sheer size meant that they still covered a good portion of the mountainside.

I ran back to my room to grab my glasses and my binoculars. Even through the binoculars, I couldn't make out much of a definite shape beyond the lights -- it was just too dark. (Initially, however, I was certain that the middle craft must be an actual saucer Not so sure about that now, as I only saw that line of lights -- doesn't mean it was round.) The lights were all blinking too, in a sluggish sort of way rather than quickfire, so occasionally they'd flicker out of view for a second before reappearing. That coupled with the movement of the little ones meant I couldn't get an exact count of them.

I watched these things move gradually up the mountain for nearly an hour, 'til dawn approached. Then I lost sight of them as the sunlight turned the mountain into a great mass of glare. They may have disappeared into an overlap in the mountain just prior to that, I don't know. I just know they didn't appear above the peak, which could have highlighted them against the sky.

I talk about this lightly now, but at the time I was scared to death. I thought everything from "they're poisoning the mountainside to spoil the reservoir!" to "oh, they're just collecting plants! They're scientists!" I was too terrified to even step outside, thinking that they'd somehow see me. One thing's for sure though -- I have no idea what they really could have been. I don’t know of any planes that do that. We don’t get fireflies here. And there are no roads up there. So my mind went right to the only alternative I had -- ET UFO, blah blah blah. Who knows now. Any ideas?

The first of my two sightings:

It was approx 1982 and I was 10 years old. It happened somewhere in the middle of Texas...

I was in the car with my dad en route to his company's picnic at some dude ranch. It was mid morning with clear blue skies and flat land all around. As we drove down the highway I started to notice something just above the ground off the the side of the road. We drove closer and we saw this big dull grey (like lead) egg shaped "thing". It was at the same height and location of where a billboard would be except nothing was holing it up. It had absolutely no markings, portals, lights, etc... It was completely smooth all around and didn't move. There was nothing surrounding it and in fact there wasn't anything else around but flat fields. We just drove right on by and oddly...my dad doesn't remember it at all. I'll never forget it.

I have seen something unidentified in the sky only once and it was in the mid 90's with my friend in winter evening (I was around 16). It was 10 to 20 degrees below zero and the sky was clear. We were looking stars and thinking of the insanity of universe when I spotted a star like object far up in the sky (Even though I live near Santa I'm quite sure that it wasn't Rudolf...). Object traveled 'a half circle' and stayed in one place when another same looking object traveled a straight line next to the other object. After 10 seconds those were slowly dimmed out. The size of the traveled area was something about size of the center of orion.

I was really amazed, but my friend couldn't take it and just noticed that 'so..'. I have believed ever since, but I'm frustrated to see that most of the 'proof material' to be twaddle.

Hello again Antar,

Thought I share again the next sighting with you, and others... It was Mid Winter, around 2-3 a.m. I was awaken by the barks from the dog's that were outside... (not mine) and thought, this was different never in the years did I hear them bark at night. I got up, walk into our living room and notice from our door window, a glow, obviously I got closer to see what this was coming from, realizing it was just across the field just above the tree's, it hovered along the tree line at a very slow pace. At this moment I thought..... get my wife up to see this... In doing so, she started to focus after a quick awakening, and we witness this large glow move accross the field less then 300 yards from us, emit a light towards the ground. We heard no sounds as we watched it moved west and out of sight. LInda asked, what was that? My reply, It was not from this world, I've seen something like it, but I know, it is not Man made. This was back in 1979...

More sightings to come Later!

1964-Brunswick, Georgia; near Glenco Naval Air Station. (Glenco NAS was closed down years later). I was about 6-7 yrs old. I remember the incident as if it were yesterday. Summer, hot & humid, clear skies, midday. I was outside, playing with my toy cars in the yard. I became thirsty & stoodup from squating. As I did, I looked up into the sky. There were 5 silver objects in a formation, which corresponded to the points of a pentagram. The formation never moved or wavered. I recall standing & watching something that I had no idea what it was. I know it wasn't a helicopter/s. There was no sound. Distance was as this: holding your arm straight out & sticking the thumb up, the formation of 5 would be large enough to fit on the outside of the thumbnail. After about maybe 2-3 minutes I went inside our house to tell my mom, & get some water. When I went back outside, they were gone.
Years later, I began to have missing time episodes along with unusual events. That's why I am here. Searching, because I believe.

Your're Truly incredible experiences are what this site is all about for me and so many others finding their way here.
Please take time , pop some corn, grab a cool drink and read 'all' the accounts on this thread and tell me what you think.
You are all incredible witness's to a phenomenal occurance. I have to commend all of you for you ability to put across in such a clear and intelligent manner the personal experiences that you share with us.

Salty Salt- It is amazing that when you have the experience yourself, there is no question as to the validity, and the events play in all of our heads from the experience forward, I am so proud to be in the company of people like myself, just ordinary people telling the truth and looking for others to listen and share.

WickedStar- I LOVE that you stayed on the phone with your Mom, you are a smart cookie, and this in no way invalidates your honest account.

Speeddemon-Video link please? Also Great story, but weatherrocket? I would love to hear more of what you and your friends had to say about it in private.

Siblin- You get the award for best effort on the great picture! I have to say that I actually felt your experience and have to say your wife must be a part of the total picture too. How cool you have each other when so many are all alone in their experiences.

Prozacship- You just sound down to earth and honest as can be. It is amazing that your Dad had NO recall whatsoever That will not be the last time you hear that one though!

Halfblind -TwaddleI couldnt agree with you more...

DREAMING MAN- Excellent recounting, if it were up to me (and it is here) you get the stamp of validation to your connection.


Jessemole- What more can I say than Thankyou For you strong and credible contribution to this all of our thread I hope you feel like sharing more, seems you helped open the flood gates again.

Antar,
Your words to all of us goes without saying, it is easy to convey to you.
Now!, the event that was different then most was this, I was heading towards a local market to pick up dinner, like always I was going less then the speed limit coming to a stop sigh. It happen to be very cloudy that late day, but very clear, so to speak. While coming to a stop, It was a moment that was far from what I thought I seen before, there was this huge streak of glow heading east from my direction south, it was gone in less then a moment, if I had blinked, I would have missed it coming onto view. It was so profound, that evening I thought I 'd look here on ATS, and MUFON. As it turns out... someone also mention within the same day/time they experences this, it was same type of occurence. And their sighting was within the same frame, located in Iowa. After reading his/her depiction of what they had seen, I would think, maybe I witness the same
Craft that was seen by them or maybe by other's... That's a hard call!

Regardless, I have no question it was not Man made, as mention, in previous post's, were not there yet to be that fast and be in control.

I'd like to give it a try, I have a need to feel that type of speed!
Put your Gavity belt on, were going for a Ride.

Later Antar!

I recently had two UFO sightings while camping in Chenango Valley State Park.

My UFO Sighting on August 13th and 17th 2007

[edit on 8/19/2007 by Alien42]

Alien42 you will have to go up to your link for my response... Oops...

And jessemole follow the link above for my comment to you too. I am going to eat a baked potato with the works and a good salad and kick back and watch TV and sleep. I sound grouchy huh? he-he Ill get very little until all of the crazy weather phenomenon settles down.
Lots to look up to skies for though.

Hey I was watching NASA TV coverage earlier and recorded what looked to me like a bunch of Ufos gliding along above the clouds of the hurricanes. They ARE up there like tourists to Disneyland right now you better believe it!

Hey all,

I've seen 4 unidentified flying objects. One became an IFO though, and two not so sure on.

The first two occured as a child watching the night sky with my folks.

The first of these was watching for Halley's comet. I saw what looked like a spinning triangle far far far up in the sky with my high powered binoculars. Later in childhood I would learn that space debris and satelites are easily visible. I've seen alot similar since and my conculsion is that's likely what I saw.

The second childhood incident is unexplained. My father and I were watching stars in our backyard. What appeared as a red star, and a blue star were coming across the night sky in opposite directions. They weren't really bright, but the color was very noticeable against the backdrop of normal night sky. We soon realized that these two objects were heading in a straight line for eachother! They came together, and only the blue star was left going its same way in the night sky. My father tried later on to find out if the shuttle or some mission occured. We never found a suitable explanation.


The third incident is quite fun. I was about 8 at the time and on the front steps of the house. This amazing obeject Came from one side of the sky. It looked like a backwards plane. The small wing was in the front, and a large triangle wing in the back. I stood up, and started waving and waving trying to get its attention. I sure did, cause it dived, and buzzed the house. I could briefly see the silohellte of a figure in a cockpit waving back. I was so excited, I ran into the house telling my folks how this UFO made contact with me. I quickly drew a picture with crayons of what I saw, right down to the numbers I saw on the back. My father didn't recongnize it, but actually brought my picture into work. One of his co-workers told him it was a Veri-eze. My dad actually tracked the tail number I had on my picture down to a local airport. :-)


The fourth was the most convincing for me, and happened the summer of 97' right before college. I was out front of my girlfriend's house with her brother and sister skywatching. From the left side of our field of vision, a light as bright as a landing light started to come. White light, nothing else. Little bit slower then a plane. This light got brighter, and illuminated the yard just like a spot light. We briefly got a glimpse of fuselage, and it didn't appear to be anything like a plane or helicopter. As it passed, the light and the fuselage we could see in the vicinty of the light hinged and flipped. The bright light went inside and couldn't be seen, and a smaller non-spot white light was on the other side of the hinged piece. Then, what we could see shot straight up, pure vertical. That light disappeared so far into the distance above us, it got so small before we simply couldn't see it. It struck me as no known aircraft in our inventory (I already had my solo at this point in a Cessena 172, so bit of an airplane buff).

That's pretty much what convinced me that something is defintely going on out there. I'm not convinced that its alien, sub-earth, reptillian, or have a clue as to what it is behind it. But something is defintely out there.

Cheers,

Leibolmai
