Bright light soaring through sky I was on my way home from Norwich coming up route 165 and when I got near Pachaug marina and campground, I saw this amazingly bright light soaring through the sky, not too high up. When I got near the fields there were two other cars pulled over and the man asked me if I saw the light too? He then said it didn't make any noise. Crazy.

My daughter and I observed a brightly lit object hovering around 100 feet above the ground behind the trees on the side of route 201. It was on a December night in 2021 that my 14 year old daughter and I had picked up my 24 year old (at the time) daughter from work and dropped her off at my mother's in Gales Ferry. We then drove home and as I made a left hand turn onto route 201, we observed some very bright lights on the left side hovering behind the trees on the farm.

My daughter said she saw it as a rectangle with extremely bright lights on it while I just saw the extremely bright lights. I believe there was a car coming behind me so I drove about 100 feet ahead to a road on the right and turned around to go back and it was gone. I had also rolled my window down in the truck to hear but there wasn't any sound.

My daughter was in shock, not believing it has just disappeared, I think she may have screamed. I turned the truck around and drove home, about 4 minutes down the road.

Two glowing orange lights traveling west over Griswold, CT. On my drive home from work I saw a bright orange light moving extremely slowly across the sky. It was lower than the planes that were in the air at the time, and not blinking.

It looked initially like a new street lamp had been installed (same shape and orange color), but very bright and too high up over the trees to be a street light. As I turned the corner onto my road, I lost sight of the light. It was traveling west at a steady slow pace.

I saw a second orange light about 1/2 mile up the road, traveling parallel to the first light in the same direction. These lights were very bright and non-blinking. I pulled into my driveway and parked quickly, getting out to watch it move over the yard into the woods.

My husband came out to see it and concluded it was a helicopter, then went back inside. I continued to watch and heard my neighbors remarking about the orange light in the next yard. They also didn't know what it was.

The light glimmered, like it was sputtering out, then disappeared over the edge of the trees. There were planes in the sky at the same time, and these were all much higher altitude than these lights were. The planes all had white and red lights and were blinking.

I could hear the sound of the planes passing, but did not hear anything I would have attributed to these flying objects. If I had to guess altitude, I would have said about 300 feet to 1 mile up at most. It was hard to gauge how big they were since it was just an oval glowing light.

The planes seemed much much higher in the air.

Sighted an orangish/yellow glowing circular light that appeared to hover ,then back up and slowly descend into the woods. At 10:25pm, 1/4/04 I looked out my window as I always do before bed and saw a very unusual orangish/yellow bright glowing light just above the trees in my backyard. It was a cloudy, rainy night so I knew it was not an aircraft, especially at that level.

I heard no sound. The light appeared to back up a little bit then it began to slowly descend at a downward angle towards the ground into the woods behind my house. I could tell it was behind the trees as I saw the branches and trunks in front as it descended very slowly.

It's normally pitch black here at night so I know it was not a reflection from a streetlight or car. And there are no neighbors or airports closeby. I never believed in UFOs.

until now. I see no other logical explanation for this! ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous. PD)).
