17 lights that appeared they were playing tag in the night sky. I don't know if this counts since it was quite a few years ago but while driving home from my grandmother's home, my mother noticed numerous lights in the western sky flying super fast, stopping, moving up and down and at various angles. She told us to look and proceeded to pull over.

My mother, siblings and I got out of the car and watched this strange phenomenon. It appeared that these 17 lights were playing, flying toward each other and away at unbelievable speeds. Other people coming out of the shopping center looked up to see what we were looking at.

Everyone freaked out. Since I was an 11 year old, I remember telling my mother that I thought they were angels playing tag. It was unbelievable.

The lights appeared the same as stars but were much large. I would say they measured about 90-100 feet across flying at 7000 feet. My mother was so excited that she telephoned my father and told him to come to where we were to see it but they soon flew abruptly upward after pulling into a tight circular formation.

Huge chevron, just above rooftops, speed about15 mph, no sound, no wind, enclosed by white fog, very bright lights. Sorry, I've been using computers for over 40 years and still can't cut & paste. I am 72 now but had the sighting when in my mid 30's.

Would be glad to speak to someone about this via phone or in person. Have no photo's but made several interesting drawings (can explain later) and also a map showing the flight path. I would very much like to talk to someone else who has seen the same thing I saw.

Hope this helps UNFORC reveal the truth to others. For me there is no doubt any longer.

Huge Silent Chevron with all white lights surrounded by gas flying slow and low about 100 feet off ground for 15 minutes. Flying NW from Cape Canaveral/Kennedy. Boomerang/chevron shaped.

Surrounded by a gas like fog. Totally silent. As it approached directly over us it slowed to about 10-15 miles per hour.

It got very low, barely above treetops and rooftops. Did not cause any breeze or wind when overhead. So huge it covered almost the entire block.

Color appeared dark gray or black yet seemed partially opaque/translucent/transparent combined. It blocked out part of the night sky yet in spots you could see the stars through it. Difficult to look straight up as it went directly overhead as lights were a blinding constant white.

It looked like one solid object at times yet also like 7 to 12 individual objects somehow connected. It continued on past us in the same direction at the same speed. It did not accelerate speed but it did go a little higher.

((NUFORC Note: If UFO's, or their occupants, are capable of communicating via mental telepathy, we do not understand why they would resort to the relatively primitive means of Morse Code.)) During a period of several nights, points of light moved over and under the ocean water in various formations, which were later revealed to be lights attached to solid black elliptical flying objects. One night, I traveled with two other friends to Jax Beach to see what we would see.

  As we stood on the beach, we noticed what appeared to be airport runway lights extending from the shoreline approximately 1 mile north of us to the east horizon.  My friends and I wondered how and why runway lights would be positioned over water to the horizon, as it really seemed nonsense.  Our attention was then drawn to the lights of what appeared to be an oil tanker moving south across the ocean many miles out to sea.

  As the lights moved in unison along the horizon, suddenly these lights, which seemed to form the outline of a ship separated into two equal numbers and moved away from each other. With that occurrence my friends and I felt very uneasy and decided to depart.  I returned on other occasions to witness other equally unexplainable lights, which moved in and out of the water.

  Following those sightings, I began to send Morris Code messages from the shoreline using my car headlights.  Messages such as: God is Love.  I sent the simple messages over the water for several nights; when a response was sent in Morris Code by way of a red light, which moved between two white lights moving in unison near the horizon.

  The response message was:  God is.  Within several nights of that response,  I was given the opportunity to see the UFO aircraft that generated the "lights" on two occasions.  One following night, I parked my car on a beach access ramp facing the ocean and using my headlights, I sent my God is love message out over the water.

  Shortly, thereafter, four lights arranged in a blue-green-blue-green pattern appeared on the horizon. I stepped out of the car to get a better look and the lights began to move very quickly toward the beach where I was standing. The lights reached the waters edge at the beach and stopped.

  The UFOs traveled from the horizon to the shore in less than 30 seconds! At that point I observed that the aircraft were about the size of 737's and their shapes were elliptical and solid bl! ack with a one blue and one green light positioned on the outer edge.  Their appearance was difficult to see except when heat lightening flashed in the sky behind them.  The UFOs did not remain for long but this time more slowly returned to their position on the horizon.

  The second sighting occurred several nights later and further north of Jax Beach in an area of the beach where houses or apartments were not constructed at the time.  Again, I used my headlights to send the Morris Code message "God Is" over the water.  Again lights appeared on the horizon and moved more slowly over the water until they were about 150 feet from the shore.

  That time I counted six UFOs that appeared as before.  I walked down to the shore and waited for something to happen; however, I do not remember anything else occurring, except that they seemed to loose interest in me and slowly drifted out of sight over the horizon. .

round metallic object with three white lights hovering at tree top level made no noise left at high rate of speed Dark had recently fallen. My mother and I had to run an errand. Leaving our driveway, we turned south onto Main street.

We noticed a round metallic object hovering just above the pine trees. We were directly under the object hovering above Frazier Mill works in Hollyford area. It had three white lights forming a triangle and made no noise.

We continued traveling south slowly as I watched the object it turned into a ball of light and moved at a high rate of speed off to the east. When we returned home about 30 minutes later, military helicopters were flying all around the area . I have never reported the incident until now.

temporary total electrical failure residentail lights out vehicle disabled everything came back on after a short time My best frind at the time and I were returning to his house in the NW area of Winter Haven, FL, from Night classes at Ridge VoTec and in a residential area my pick-up truck suddenly quit just like a total electrical failure (no battery, lights ign. etc) and the Street lights above and houses all around went out too. I thought it was an EMP, ((male name deleted)) (my friend) didn't have any idea, so we stood there talking in the dark waiting to see what happened next, someone either from a house or walking by stopped and talked with up, after about a half hour everything lit back up, and my truck restarted and worked as if nothing had happened at all.

We were finishing up a two year course in HD Truck & Bis mechanics, so we had a pretty good handle on how a vehicle worked and how to repair it, neither of us found any fault other than no power to the system, and we restarted without a jump or push starting it.

A silent, slow moving oval craft followed my four diamond shaped objects. I was 13 years old in 1981. On a clear, dark night in June, my friend, who was 12 and I were spending the night in my treehouse.

We had decided to go for a walk in the field behind my house. We looked up into the sky and to the North, we saw a yellow-orange colored oval (laying sideways) shaped UFO that was slowly crossing the sky from the East to the West. Four white diamond shaped objects appeared from the tail end of the oval and followed it in a straight line.

I remember turning to my friend and asking him if he was seeing what I was seeing. He said that he was and that we weren't dreaming. We watched it for about 25 seconds, then while they were traveling, the last diamond object emitted a bright red light and then shot quicky back and downwards in a arc away from the others.

The other three then continued moving West in a straight line for a few seconds, then took off at a high rate of speed in different directions. Following this, the oval object paused for 3 or 4 seconds then shot into the sky at a 45 degree angle at a high rate of speed. We watched it until it went out of site.

Huge Saucer over Pensacola Pass. I was on a beach west of Pensacola Pass. A huge silver saucer was low and stationary over the Pass.

Navy T-34 planes (from Pensacola NAS) were flying circles around the saucer. Suddenly, armed Fighter Jets (scrambled out of Eglin AFB) blasted down the beach just above treetop level. The jets banked hard in front of me and the blast knocked me down.

The saucer started flying south over the Gulf of Mexico and gaining speed. By the time the jets leveled out from their banking, the saucer already disappeared over the horizon. ((NUFORC Note: Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate.

very large craft up close and personal Approx on March 25, 1985 , 3 of us were night riding horses on the then incomplete I-75. Between Fruitville and University Pkwy the horses started to spook. When we turned around there was a very large cylinder shaped craft behind us.

It covered the roadway from fence to fence( what would soon be 6 lanes, a large median and shoulder lanes) , very large , NO NOISE at all , just flashing rotating lights of various colors. It was mesmerizing to say the least like you could almost reach out and touch it. We all turned and just watched it.

The horses started to spook and brought us all back to reality. We then decided to split up and run. It disappeared behind us as fast as it had appeared.
