Full Report Text:
A ball of red light, slightly rippled. We looked up and saw a bright light in the sky moving very slowly and upwards. The light was circular and in the sky.
It did not look like a plane and that is what made us think it was a UFO. It continued to travel over our heads instead of in front of us. We realized it had suddenly started moving very quickly then it literally made a 90 degree turn extremely fast and started moving in the other direction.
It was moving extremely fast and was high in the sky and looked very odd. We took a picture of it and when we tried it ended up looking very odd, almost like ripples on the water.

slow moving steady orange lights, over 25 total over a 30 minute period, north of Monroe CT In the late evening looking north of Monroe, CT, there were slow moving orange lights with random spacing moving North/Northeast. They did not have rotating beacons or strobe lights like aviation aircraft. It was a varying intensity orange light that resembled a flame.
The number is an estimate. They were moving from just above the treelike and the spacing was inconsistent, sometimes 15 seconds or so apart, sometimes minutes. It continued for quite some time and was definitely NOT military aircraft; I served over 20 years in military aviation and I am quite positive.
They were fairly slow moving and after sometime disappeared, I don't believe because of distance. It was a clear night and lunar illumination was not a factor. Several of us witnessed the even baffled at what it could be and every time I thought they were done, another one seemed to appear, arc slowly across the sky and eventually disappear.

Bright orange light hovering in sky, then flies off only to reappear minutes later . I went outside to check on my pool filter and when returning to house I noticed a very bright orange light in the sky to the northwest. It made no sound and varied in brightness from very bright to very dim.
It moved in an erratic somewhat circular motion then it seemed to fade away. I ran into the house get my wife and my camera but when we returned outside, no sign of the light could be seen. My wife went back inside but I stayed outside and decided to walk up my street toward where I had seen the light.
I got in front of my neighbors house when the light reappeared from the north. It move through the sky to the original spot I had seen it. It remained there, not moving but changing in brightness as it had before.
I took 1 picture of it using my old olympus digital camera D-580. The object appeared to rise in the sky , gaining altitude, then disappearing. The object made no sound.

Orange Light Formation Over Monroe, CT 10/11/11--Hangs in Sky then Flys Away. Please note: I am the "woman" cited, below, in the report that was made to the local newspaper, the CT Post. This report is EXACTLY accurate, so I am sending it as is.
NOTE: The "orange light" looks just like the one on your homepage from the Rense Radio show (NJ sighting). Man spots UFO in Monroe, CT. October 11, 2011 The newsroom recieved the following account from a reader who said he spotted a UFO in Monroe, Connecticut: Witnessed (along with a stranger who’d parked her car in front of my driveway to jump out of the car and witness it as well) the event described below over the sky of Monroe tonight and can discern no viable explanation.
When: Tuesday, 10/11 @ appx 9:00 PM EST Where: Fan Hill Road, Monroe, CT outside (from WSW sky below treeline to NE sky directly overhead) Duration: approximately 5 minutes from first sighting the lights til they passed, reverting the sky back to darkness Event: 7-10 red/orange lights of undulating brightness (like fire) appx 1/16 to 1/8 diameter of a full moon and brightness equivalent to Venus or a low-flying plane light. All lights sat motionless in sky in a formation pattern roughly a rectangle or triangle--or a pattern with even spacing among all lights that just hung in the sky, covering a large portion of the sky overhead. Then entire formation began moving as one object (from a complete stop in the sky) generally NE in direction before all lights went dark nearly simultaneously.
Planes were overhead after the event and their plane engines could be heard but during event lights in question generated no sound whatsoever. Complete Silence. Initially suspected these to be meteor shower but they were below the cloud cover and quite a bit larger than any meteor I’ve ever seen and no trail left as they moved.
After initial formation moved and disappeared, an additional 4-6 lights came, single file and well spaced, across the sky from the WSW one after another towards where the first formation had disappeared and each proceeded to disappear as it reached that general destination. All were the same size as the others. After flying After that the sky was dark and clouds could be seen with patches of sky/stars showing thru and plane in the far distance, which could be heard, but no residual evidence of the lights.
Again, it was completely silent during this light formation motion. Absence of any sound and a combination of stationary lights coupled with movement makes a plane/fireworks/meteor explanation questionable. Same as for ball lightning, swamp gas ignition, etc.
all of which I’ve seen before and this did not match any of them. Note: On after sighting report to local police: Monroe police said the lights were caused by rice paper candles lit by kids behind a local church. The children lit candles under rice paper bags.
When ignited, the bags flew into the sky.) Note: I (the woman cited above) took photos w/ my cell phone be I do not seemed to have captured the "orange light ball." However, it does show the blackened sky around the vicinity--if that is of any help.

Huge object with 2 Verry bright headlights i can see from 3 minutes away I only had a quick look at the object. It flew about 200 feet over the ground. It was night time but because it was so close to the ground I had a great view of it.
The color appeared to be grey it had two airplane tails on the back. Just like a plane has one tail on the end of it this had two. It also had a 2 extreamelly bright lights on the front they appeared to be in a circle form.
I could see this object from several minutes away. A bright light glared in my room i looked out the window and I thought i have not seen a plane this bright so i kept watching it and about 3 minutes later it came verry close flying right above my house. It had an awkard sound almost like a plane but allitle different.
My main question is, are there any planes with 2 verry bright headlights?.

My friend and I went out to a club, stopped for McDonalds on the way home. Arrived home around 2:45 AM friday night. As we pulled in her drive way I asked her to keep her car running so we can wait in it for my car to warm up - it was COLD.
I got out of her car, started my car, as I went to get back in to her car, I opened her car door I noticed a bright light went on, I thought it was her flood light which come to find out is not a sensor light and no one in her house turned it on. I got in her car and shut the door, next thing I remember it was 2 hours and 45 minutes later and we both didn't have a clue as to what happened except for the fact we both were unconcious for almost 3 hours. simotaneously.
Both of our cars were still running and neither of us had any physical evidence of an abduction. We were not drunk nor on drugs. The next day, I told a friend my story and they checked my neck and back and found a small circle of punctures in my upper back/lower neck consisting a total of 5 marks (I was told that this was common in abductions).
I am afraid for my well being and would like any feed back that you may be able to provide me with.
