On July 6, 1918, Oberth married Mathilde Hummel, with whom he had four children. Among these were a son who died as a soldier in World War II, and a daughter who also died during the war when there was an accidental explosion at a liquid oxygen plant where she was in August 1944. In 1919, Oberth once again moved to Germany, this time to study physics, initially in Munich and later in Göttingen.[5]
May 1, 1952, George AFB, California. 10:50 a.m:
Witnesses: three men on the arms range, plus one Lt. Colonel 4 miles away. Five flat-white discs about the diameter of a C-47's wingspan (95') flew fast, made a 90degrees turn in a formation of three in front and two behind, and darted around, for 15-30 seconds.
Sept. 15, 1968, near Ocala, Florida. 9:30 p.m:
Witness: missionary pilot Jay Cole, flying a Beech C-45 twin-engined utility plane. One light performed aerobatics for 15 minutes and then vanished. A second light appeared, heading toward them on a collision course, made a 90* turn and disappeared. Later, ground radar told them a target was following them. Sightings lasted 15 minutes.
July 21, 1952, Converse, Texas. 4:30 p.m:
Witness: wife of USAF Capt. J. B. Neal. One elongated, fuselage-shaped object flew straight and level, made a right-angle turn and went out of sight at more than 300 m.p.h., all in 3-5 seconds.
Nov. 13, 1952, Glasgow, Montana. 2:43 a.m:
Witness: U.S. Weather Bureau observer Earl Oksendahl. Five oval-shaped objects, with lights all around them, flew in a V-formation for about 20 seconds. Each object seemed to be changing position vertically by climbing or diving as if to hold formation. Formation came from the northwest, made a 90* overhead, and flew away to the southwest.
Nov. 24, 1952, Annandale, Virginia. 6:30 p.m:
Witness: Lt. L. Brettner. One round, glowing object flew very fast, made right angle turns and reversed course during a 1 hour sighting.
July 12, 1952, Annapolis, Maryland. 3:30 p.m:
Witness: insurance company president William Washburn. Four large, elliptical-shaped objects were seen to fly very fast, stop, turn 90* and fly away in 7-8 seconds.
July 13, 1950, Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. 5 p.m:
Witnesses: two skilled Arsenal employees including Mr. Washburn. one object, shaped like a bowtie, and like polished aluminum. Flew straight and level, then one triangle rotated 1/4 turn in the opposite direction and returned to its original position. The object then made a right-angle turn and accelerated away after at least 30 seconds.
Jan. 10, 1953, Sonoma, California. 3:45 p.m or 4 p.m:
Witnesses: retired Col. Robert McNab, and Mr. Hunter of the Federal Security Agency. One flat object, like a pinhead, made three 360* right turns in 9 seconds, made abrupt 90* turns to the right and left, stopped, accelerated to original speed and finally flew out of sight vertically after 60-75 seconds.
May 11, 1954, Washington, D.C. 10:45 p.m:
Witnesses: three USAF.air policemen at Washington National Airport. Two bright lights were seen on three occasions to fly straight and level, make 90* turns and fade. Each sighting lasted about 45 seconds.
Feb. 27, 1967, Grand Haven, Michigan. 8:19 p.m:
Witnesses: Sheriff Grysen, wife and others. Large white light, with smaller red and green lights seen to the sides. Made almost instantaneous 90degrees turn to left, shot out over road and stopped, moving too fast to follow. Sighting lasted 1 hour, 11 minutes.

Unknown object witnessed making right angle turns - Illinois, 1964.
Lawrenceville, Illinois, June 8th, 1964.

On June 8th at 9:30 PM in Lawrenceville, Illinois, which is just across the river from Vincennes, a CE1 sighting took place. The witness, Mrs. Helen Reed, described a close-up observation she had of a peculiar looking object which was in the vicinity of her barn and in the air not more than 10 or 15 feet high. It was a typical domed disc with a flat bottom. When she first observed it the dome was glowing a soft blue. The object then moved erratically away from the barn and the dome turned a bright red orange in color. It then executed several sharp right angle turns and disappeared behind her shed.
Walking over to a position between her barn and shed, Mrs. Reed saw the object approach at a moderate speed and then stop within 50 feet of her. She estimated that the object was no more than 15 feet in diameter and she later described a series of round, yellow lights that encircled the base. She said that these lights were "brighter than headlights" but caused her no discomfort as she observed them.
The lights then began to rotate from left to right and Mrs. Reed noticed that there was one space where a light appeared to be missing. (Exhibit 4A) The object hovered in the same position for several seconds with the speed of the revolution of the lights increasing to a high RPM. The object then began to move away; making a sharp, right angle turn to the north and, without gaining altitude, it disappeared from view. Mrs. Reed said that as the object departed, its yellow lights were rotating so rapidly that it gave the appearance of a single band around the object's base. This entire sequence of events lasted, perhaps, 10 minutes.

Did the glow appear from behind a lens or did the glow appear external
to the ship. As if the nearby air was aglow and no beam of light was
produced. Definitely not a window with an interior light.

There is a pulsing effect to cause rings as in a drum vibration.
Or waves in a pond.
Drum vibrations can get complicated but since the ship might be
vibrating physically, ever so slightly, and electrically the rings
of light might appear.
A light ring that appears external in a break operation.
A video showed this object or craft wildly going back and forth.
What is this suppose to show me ??????????
there is nothing to the links you posted. Is this suppose to be some joke????
Drum vibration
So rings of light at the ship bottom might be possible.
The ship being at rest.
And so moving around might show other effects.
Thanks for posting your observations.

So what are you saying? that these lights really were not on the bottom they just appeared to be???? well if they wernt on the botton they had to be on the very edge or rim of the ship I dont know if the vibrations made it glow or what I suppose it could I dont know cause I dont even know what these things are made of ???? thanks for the reply.
