Surprise, Arizona UFO Sightings in 2000

Full Report Text:

At 4:20 am on a clear night I observed 2 objects moving across the sky. There were two objects. The lead object was shaped like an oval.

The second object following the first was more like a vertical rectangle with 4 legs----. It looked like a moon landing instrument. It was of a grey color----.

They were travelling NW to SE across a clear, starry sky. I am a retired lady---68 years old. I was previously an elementary school teacher in the San Diego School System ---that was my first position after graduating from Eastern Michigan University with a BA in Elementary Education.

Since then I have held different positions at Bellevue, Wa. Art Museum and Kirkland,Washington School System. ((NUFORC Note: We spoke with the witness by telephone, and we found her to be convincingly sincere.

However, during her telephone report, she indicated a date of Friday morning, 03NO00. We have changed the date here. PD)).

A red light that traveled across the sky, then dissapeared. My husband called me outside to see this weird red light. He's an avid sky watcher now that we've moved to Arizona.

He had his binoculars and pointed to this red point of light that appeared to be stationary in the northwestern sky. As I looked through the bino's I could tell that whatever it was was very high in altitude and was moving fast, not slow. It was traveling east.

As it got directly above us it made a 90 degree turn north, went on for 3 seconds then dissapeared. It stayed red the entire time, no strobe lights, and no pulsations.

((NUFORC Note: Report is not inconsistent with a "twinkling" star. Please see addendum below. PD)) I was the first to see the unidentified object at approximately 22:00 hours PM.

The "object" flickered brightly in four distinct colors. Red, blue, green and white. It moved at what had to be a high rate of speed left and right, stopping quickly at times and changing directions.

When I observed a jet liner heading for it I noticed it faded in brightness and remained still then resumed its right and left movement as soon as the aircraft cleared. It finally lowered so that we lost sight of the "object"at approximately 23:00 PM Object, at first appeared to be an overly bright star. The abrupt right and left movements said differently.

It was located in the lower northwest sky of my home, in the direction of Lake Pleasant, but further out. The object had flickering lights of red, blue, green and white and looked as if it was rotating to show the different colors as they would be bright then fade and the other color would take its place. When I saw it head one direction then stop and head back as if in a straight line to it's starting point and repeat the movement in the other direction I was very sceptable, but curious.

Sometimes it would move in one direction in short bursts then reversed and do the long movement. From my perspective it was moving approximately three inches in one direction then reversing to go back to it's original spot. The short burst were about one inch in length and it was either three burst or two at a time.

I am not sure how that would calculate in miles. The distance is too great to even estimate for me. I called my daughter out to confirm.

She said she was seeing the same thing. She called her boyfriend out and he also saw what we were seeing. We watched this strange occurance for about 45 minutes, using other stars and hand held object to determine if it was a star or something else.

The hand held object were stationary and the "object" was mobile. It kept the same distance from the reference star until it slowly lowered and disappeared from our sight, the reference star(Cappella) remained where it was. This is my third sighting in 53 years.

At age 9 I witnessed a group of 5 lights dancing (moving up and down and sideways and going brighter and fading) on the horizon while I lived in Tucson, AZ. Tucson has no street lights in 1956. There were about 100 people, police and military included, who witnessed the event.

My Dad a military man was told not to say anything. That was in the days of "Project Bluebook". In 1976 I saw a strange object in the sky near Redlands, CA.

My date and I watched it "hover" for about 15 minutes then shoot off at a 45 degree angle and disappear. The newspaper report that several people in that area witnessed the same thing. When I checked the sky on the night of May 4, 2000 It did not see anything unusual as I had the night before.

Our reference star was, however, present. ADDENDUM TO REPORT (Submitted 05MY00): I would like to change my report given to you last night. Details below After summiting my report I again found myself in my backyard, but at a later time.

When I looked where I had seen the "object" the night before I again witnessed the "light" doing the same movements with the same color changes. (Red, blue, green and white) I now feel that it is a star and as the earth rotates changing the placment of the stars this particular one is in an area that distorts it due to something in our atmosphere. (i.

e. smog or heat waves) I can find no other explanation for it being the only "star" in the sky to have such abrupt and unusual movements. I am sorry to have wasted your time.

On the Night of May 3, 2000, Myself and 2 witnesses observed a light in the northwest sky that appeared to pendullum to the east and west at a very fast pace. It would change colors from white to green to blue and red as it moved in the sky. We observed this object using reference stars and other stationary objects to verify that it was actually moving until it finally moved out of our veiw leaving the reference star in the same place.

This is the first sighting of an unidentified flying object. The object was brought to my attention by my mother , who first spotted it. It was 22:00 on the night of May 3, 2000 and the skies were clear.

I began to watch the object move at a fast pace from east to west and then return to its original spot. We used many different reference stars along with stationary objects in our possesion. The colors changed at random.

The object stayed at the same altitude until about 22:45. We then noticed it moving out of our sight. I called the local Air Force Base and they stated that they were not flying and that they would send someone out to look at it.

I also called a local news station to see if anyone else had reported anything similar. I am a professional in the medical field and a mother of 4. I have never seen anything like this before.

I am fasinated with the star and spend a lot of time looking at them and this was not a normal star. If this is a star it will be the first moving star that can change colors.
