Traingle over Celebration Florida a few minutes past Midnight Driving home after work I saw a large triangular set of lights over the town of Celebration while traveling South East towards Tampa on I-4. Just east of the World Drive exchange I could see what almost looked like aircraft lights. I would have totally brushed it off as an aircraft, as we genearlly have lots of those in the Orlando Area but they didnt seem to move.

The lights were also very close to the ground, and usually landing lights on a jet liner will hit part of the fuselage, and nothing like that was visable. Ususally large aircraft are not close to the ground at this point, as they are also close to Disney World. and I think the FAA doesn't allow large comercial traffic to be low flying above a theme park.

I'm not sure what I was seeing. There are not any radio towers here, I didnt see anything that looked like a blimp (bowl games. etc) and there were way too many lights, and too far apart for it to be a helicopter.

Lights were at all three po! ints of the triangle, with one large light in the center pointing down. About 1/2 way between each point was another smaller light. Nothing flashed, all lights were white.

Someone else had to hvae seen this. I am kicking myself for not stopping my car along the highway and taking a picture with my cellphone.

Craft shoots across evening sky on edge of the Everglades On December 27, 2009, I was outside of my home at about 18:00. I was taking pictures across the lake, I live on the outskirts of the Everglades. When I downloaded my pictures from my camera to my computer, I had an object that appeared in two pictures.

One taken at 18:11 and the other taken at 18:12. Please notice the distance the craft traveled in one second. I have seen many strange lights in the sky living so close to the glades.

But this is the first time I've captured it on my camera. The Camera I used was a digital Cannon G-9. I have mailed the images in a separate email.

Please check the name so you can compare this report with the one I mailed to your email.

2 amber burning objects seen off the coast of Vero Beach We are local residents that were born and raised in the area and have never seen or heard of anything like this. We saw 2 objects around 9:30pm over the ocean. At first we thought they were boats way off in the horizon but after closer inspection realized they were way above the horizon and seemed to have a firey glow, amber color tent and were pretty much stationary.

After a couple of minutes one burned out and the second soon to follow. We didnt see anything after that. There was no sound no color change no beams.

Just an amber burning object that seems to have smoke rising like a flare.

2 Fiery glowing objects over Delray Beach, FL The evening of December 21st at around 6PM my friend and I returned from shopping and as I turned to unpack the car an object in the sky caught my attention because it was glowing as if on fire, sort of an orange glow. The object was a quarter the size of a full moon. I asked my friend to look and he said ya, what is it? I said its not a plane its flying too low and not making a sound to be a plane.

We watched as it disapeared into the evening misty night. It went south fron the north right over our house. I went in the house started unpacking groceries and opened the back door to go outside to get my cat and another object in the sky caught my attention.

This time it was lower to the ground so I could make out a faint shadow of an egg shaped object just above the firery glow. All this took place within 10 minutes, 5 minutes apart from each other. My friend came out when I called and he ran back inside the house to get his binoculars.

He said yes it was defiantly fiery. It was traveling about the same speed on the same path as the previous object 5 minutes earlier. We watched until it disappeared into the hazy night sky.

12/13/09 Aventura florida 2 hours light 3 objects (12 to start) i went outside of work to have a cig. and the 2 guys from the store nest to mine were looking up and said look up there we've been watching them since 2 o'clock it was now 4:30. there were 3 objects up into the sky, i mean way up there, no way were they airplanes or anything i now of.

they stayed in one spot and then would blink at each other, just the 2 on the outside not the one in the middle. then they would move one at time (not the one in the middle) up down and the other one up down. they were silver and white light, scared me but also mezmerized by this.

the 2 guys from next store said when they first say them there were 12 of them they surrounded the middle one for about an hour then took and left the 3 there by themselves. when i was watching at the end they blinked rapidly and just dissappeared. the light was not attached but seemed to come from the whole object, silver to just light.

Positively not a flare, meteor,aircraft or satellite. We watched this light travel very slowly for several minutes then become stationary for 2 to 3 minutes, then appear to move away from us and disappear. Reappeared 10 minutes later southeast of us and moved slowly to the south, appearing to be much closer at first.

Remained stationary once again for about the same duration and proceeded to move away again and disappear. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that date is approximate. We do not understand why, given that the report was submitted one day after the alleged sighting.

PD)).

4 horizontallights (white-red-white-red) traveled from horizon to horizon in 15 seconds. I saw four (4) evenly spaced lights, in a horizontal arrangement, traveling at a high rate of speed. Lights were arranged, from my point of view, from left to right, white - red - white - red.

They traveled following the ships channel, from south to north. It took about fifteen (15) seconds for them to travel from the southern horizon to the northern horizion. Without an acurate reference as to their size, I would have to guess their altitude to be anywhere from 500 to 2,000 feet.

Lights moving in the sky I saw what at first appeared to be a planet (as it was not twinkling) near the top right side of Orions belt to the east on a clear night. There was no engine noise like from a plane and the object appeared stationary for about 1 minute. Then I noticed 4 dim red/orange lights in a backwards 7 type formation with the white planet out in front of the tip of the backwards seven.

The red/orange lights slowly flashed or pulsated several times while remaining in formation. They were located slightly below and to the right of the planet. I quickly snapped a photo with a camera phone and continued to watch.

Then noticed the white "planet"drift slowly down and to the left side of Orions belt. About 45 sec from top star in belt to middle star. Tried to get another photo to show the change in position in relation to Orions belt.

Red/ orange lights were no longer visible so I ran to turn off the lights nearby to try to get a better look and take another photo. The "plane! t" then moved quicker and further down and to the left. In about 20 seconds it went from the middle star to below and to the left of the bottom star in the belt.

Then it appeard to flash red/orange and disappeared. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides little contact information. PD)).

Slow-moving amber light heading east over ocean. Then disappeared. My friend and I were walking to my car outside to go to Publix and happened to look at the sky.

Over to the east we saw a bright amber-yellowish light moving east very slowly. It continued moving east at a slow pace for 20-30 seconds then dimmed and disappeared. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that date is approximate.

Follow-up To Initial Report Follow up report to incident dated December 3, 2009 at 13:22: The odor: As previously stated, I did notice a light odor that I have never come across prior. After being asked by others to describe that smell, I could at best state that it smelled like a steamy-metallic odor, almost like iron mixed with steam. It was not a chemical smell (i.

e. our hot tub chemicals can be odorous), nor was it a burning smell made by charcoal, wood or other fire-causing source. Although I have smelled a car radiator over heat, this was not comparable.

Additional Activity Immediately following the incident as described in my initial report, the following activity took place. Please note that at no time before/during or after this unusual situation, did we lose power. Cellular Telephone: My cellular telephone began to sporadically malfunction.

I had to contact my mobile service provider and had technical support try to trouble-shoot the device and problems, which consisted of: Frequent inability to make calls ‘Call Failed’ just seconds after making a call (when I could) The phone turning itself off A loud, electrical interference while conducting what little calls I could place The battery was fully charged and prior to the incident and I had not experience a problem with the phone. Technical support stated that it did not appear to be the SIM card, but seemed more like a device malfunction. Other members of the household whom were not at home at the time of the initial incident, did not experience any problem with their mobile telephones.

Our service provider had me place calls from both my device, as well as from another family member’s (we are on the same network). My device was problematic but theirs was not. The technician noted the odd electrical nterference and stated that my only other choice was to get a replacement device if the problems persisted.

I agreed to wait a day or two and see what would happen. After two days of problems post-incident, my cellular phone problems were gone and I did not have to replace the device. HD-DVR Cable Box: Our HD-DVR cable box ceased working and kept giving us an "Unrecoverable Write Error" message that technical support stated indicates the drive has been damaged.

Due to our cable provider’s inability to fix the box, we had to exchange it for a one. Behavior of the cats: Two out of three of our cats exhibited non-typical behavior. All three remained somewhat skittish for the remainder of the day immediately following the incident, however, at approximately 22:20 on the evening of the incident and after retiring to bed for the evening, my son woke me concerned for one of the cats.

She was hissing, crying and pacing on the ledge of the window in the rear bedroom. She was upset to the point that she crawled up the screen and had to be pried off, only to remain very bothered for an additional 20 minutes or so. Upon inspection of the yard(s), we did not see anything, however, are surrounded by dense woods.

At approximately 03:45 that same night (date was now December 4th, 2009), I was woken when a different cat was literally running and jumping into the sliding glass door window as well as jumping onto the drapes that covered the windows. He was howling and crying as though something was on the lanai, next to our hot tub. Worried that he would hurt himself by running into the glass, I tried to pick him up but he was so upset that he scratched my hand and arms and jumped away.

After approximately 5 minutes of this behavior, he retreated to hiding underneath a loveseat where he continued to cry for several minutes. Further inspection of the lanai and yard(s) revealed nothing. Note: The side and backyards are open, but the woods extend from the fences, outward.

We have had raccoons, armadillo, possums and bobcats get around the fencing from time to time, but even then the cats act in a more curious fashion and will actually go to the glass doors or windows to observe, never intimidated. We are at a loss as to what could have caused this abnormal behavior. Aside from the incidents above, they have been fine.

Something falling out of the sky, dimming my skylight, followed by a loud explosion heard throughout the neighborhood. I am not exactly sure what took place other than I am certain that what produced the very loud explosion, came from the sky. Time: Approximately 1:22 PM on Thursday, December 3, 2009.

Location: North Port, Florida I was sitting in my bathroom applying makeup, almost directly underneath the bathroom skylight. I did not have the bathroom light on and was applying the makeup with the natural lighting. Suddenly, something crossed over the skylight and dimmed the room substantially.

Within approximately 2-3 seconds, there was a very loud explosion, as though something very heavy and large, hit the ground. The sound shook the house and sent all three of our cats into hiding. Initially, when seeing the dimming only, I thought it was a bird, although it would have had to be rather large.

I also considered an airplane but did not hear one single sound, such as jet engine or other noise. I then went out to see if I could find anything. The explosion so quickly after seeing the dimming, made me consider an airplane due to the severity of the noise and the fact that the house shook.

Note: Our house is surrounded by dense woods on both sides, as well as in the back. I went onto the back lanai and checked, however, did not notice anything in the immediate backyard. I did not notice any additional or unusual sounds, nor did I notice any smoke or fire.

For a very brief period of time, I did note a very odd odor, which I cannot identify. It dissipated rather quickly. It was not strong, but was something that I have not ever smelled before.

I returned to the house after my initial inspection. At approximately 1:26 I telephoned the North Port Police Department. I was transferred to Dispatcher Martin and asked if anyone had reported seeing/hearing anything.

She stated that yes, other people in the neighborhood had contacted the North Port PD about the noise. She also stated to me that there were two officers en route to our general neighborhood. The call with Dispatch ended.

I returned outside to look around some more. Upon returning to the front of the house, I observed that all power lines/transformers seemed to be in tact without smoke. At that time, two NP PD officers pulled in front of my home and my neighbor’s.

Three neighbors then emerged from their respective homes. One officer spoke with the neighbors across the street from me, while the other spoke with me. I was asked what transpired and told the officer exactly what I witnessed.

I pointed to the skylight and told him that I was almost directly underneath it when the room dimmed considerably, followed very quickly with a loud explosion. All of my neighbors and I thought that the noise came from a slightly different location, but all agreed to it being extremely close to our three houses. To my knowledge, I was the only one who “saw” anything, in addition to the explosion.

The officer asked if I would be home for the day in the event that he had to come back to speak with me, of which I told him, “yes”. The officers did not go into the woods, nor the side/back of my home. The officers remained on scene for approximately 10 more minutes and then left.

I returned to my home and once again, went to look out in the back/side yards, of which did not observe anything unusual. Note: It was approximately 2:00 PM when the cats came out of hiding. At approximately 2:11 PM, I made another call to Dispatch Officer Martin and asked if they had found the cause of the explosion.

She stated that despite dispatching “several officers” to the neighborhood, they did not find a cause and said it was strange. Again, I did not actually "see" anything, but noticed a considerable dimming in the lighting as something passed overhead while in the bathroom, putting on makeup underneath the skylight. Oddly enough, within 2-3 seconds, there was a huge explosion, that shook the house.

Full Report Text:

It initially resembled a large orange light ,but once I got closer, it looked like three orange lights in the shape of a triangle. I want to start off by saying that I am incredibly skeptical when it comes to this subject, but I witnessed something last night that I cannot explain. I attend a local college and left class around 9:30pm.

On my way home (headed north on Highway 27), I saw a bright orange light ahead of me. The full moon was abnormally large, so I assumed Earth may have been extra close to a particular star or planet. The light was too big to be a plane or helicopter, and at first, it appeared to be too high up to be either of those.

As I continued driving, I realized it wasn’t a planet or star, because I seemed to be getting closer to it. At this point, I was trying to figure out what in the heck I was looking at. It was too high to be a light at the top of a tower, but it wasn’t moving or blinking either.

As I got closer, the object got bigger, almost as if it were floating above the new soccer field on the south end of town. I turned right on Hunt Brothers Road, and at t! his point, I had a car right on my bumper. I kept looking at the light, which appeared to be almost directly above me.

When I looked up, I saw three orange lights that formed a tight triangle. I kept trying to get a better look at it, but because I was in a vehicle, it was hard to see something that close (yet still so high in the air). I nearly had my whole head of the window when the lights quickly moved east (much too fast to be a plane, jet or helicopter).

When this happened, I noticed that car behind me basically stopped in the middle of the road. They must have been watching too, and when the lights moved so quickly, they slammed on their brakes. When I looked back up, the lights were gone.

This is where it gets even weirder… I immediately called my husband (who is even more of a skeptic than I am!). When I started telling him what I saw, he didn’t laugh or make jokes, he was actually listening and being serious about it. After I told him what I saw, he said, “That is! so weird.

I am not kidding you, I saw the same thing on my wa! y home f rom work.” He works in a city north of Lake Wales and had seen this same thing two hours before I had seen it. As he headed south on Highway 27, he saw the bright orange light.

It disappeared before he made it into Lake Wales. As he traveled east on Highway 60, the light reappeared about five miles east of the Lake Wales. This time, there were three lights in the shape of a triangle.

He said he kept starting until it disappeared. The distance between where I saw the triangle and where he witnessed it is about 10 miles. For two skeptics to see the same thing, at different times, in slightly different locations, and NOT be able to explain them… that is strange in itself.

Part of me wants to believe it has something to do with the bombing range located to the south of us (in Avon Park), but I really can’t say.

Full Report Text:

these crafts were not planes. I don't recall the exact date, but I have witness these crafts twice, on November and on December 2009. It was between 7 and 8 pm, it was dark already, some clouds.

I was having a smoke on my balcony which faces west. I see planes almost every day far and close, so I know planes. I lived for over 8 years near the Miami International Airport, before I moved to this new place.

I know airplanes, how they move their colors, the sound, just the way they move is enough to tell me that what I was seeing that night were not planes. They move too smooth and no noise, the color of the lights also was different. Planes are required to have green and red lights so that it is possible to tell if they plane is approaching or getting farther away.

Those crafts I saw had no lights like this. What they had was lights bluish white which blinked, like on and off, on and off. They just felt strange, this is the only way I can describe.

After seeing planes all my life, these jus! t were different. Now they were traveling from my left to my right, since my balcony faces west, they were moving from south to north. There is nothing south except the sea so go figure were they came from.

My first sighting of these strange crafts was on November probably mid November 2009. Then in the middle of December, I was smoking again at around 7:30 pm and I saw them again, this really stroke as fancy, I mean do they do this every other day? I have not seen them anymore. There were maybe 5 to 7 of these things, they were not in any kind of formation.

I would say they were in a circular formation, if you can call that a formation. Both instances I saw them at the same angle of view, I would say 60 degrees, I think, with the horizon being 0 and straight up from my head being 90. It is hard because I live in the fourth floor.

There used to be a base down here, the homestead base, but it has been close since the mid 1990s. Now I want to tell you about another sighting I had a few years back, the reason is that that craft was also coming from the south. This craft I saw in this occasion I got to see its shape, it was a charcoal triangle, not black, dark but it had a sort of blue around it.

This was seen by 4 people, including me. We saw it and then some one said, that is what people see like UFO don't you think? No nose and the same smooth going which planes don't have, it is like they are not feeling the resistance of the air around them or something, this is the best way I can explain. I believe in the so call aliens, not only because of the sightings in modern times, but I think these beings have been coming and going way before man ever walked the earth.

But I don't know why I have the feeling these triangles are “Made in the USA” just something. You have seen how the government can hide things like the stealth fighter, the blackbird SR71, and Aurora, we are talking technology which was developed 50 years ago, so imagine what they have now. When will we see this technology? As soon as they have a better one.

I also believe that not all aliens come from this universe by traveling billions of miles, I think there is enough evidence to show some come from other realities as well. I guess those too fall in the alien category. Can contact me if it is worth it.

Fireball AMAZING crashed in florida I'm a manager for the arbys out in fish hawk, when were were outside having the last smoke brake of the night, a massive fireball cam hurtling out of the eastern sky going west , i think the object might have crashed some where near that area, it was maybe the size of a one engined plane. it had to be at least 300 feet away form the ground, but traveling FAST. it was something i never seen before the object was in sight for roughly 30 seconds getting lower and lower to the ground traveling at maybe 400 miles per hours is what my guess would be, made the lights flicker in the store and parking lot of the surrounding area, loud thump about 10 seconds after it was out of sight lots of bird activity after sighting.

left a smoke trail. also i remember seeing a strange cloud shaped like a halo around the moon. might not have anything to do with the object i saw but maybe it could be relevant information.

two very bright balls of light in night sky following each other. No sound and no flashing lights moving very slowly. On November 28, 2009 at about 6:00 pm I looked up in the n/ne sky and noticed two round very bright balls of light.

At first I thought it was the international space station but there was two of them. One was following the other. The one in back was a little bit smaller than the one in front.

They was very close to each other.There was no sound and no lights were flashing to indicate an aircraft of some kind. I watched them as they went behind some trees and one came out and the other didn't.

The one continued on toward the s/se until I could not see it anymore.

Miami, FL 33179, 11/24/09, 8:20 pm EST. I observed an extremely bright fireball. It was heading NNW from the NNE, about 20 degrees above the horizon.

The event took less than 5 seconds, and at its brightest, it was blueish-greenish to white, about – 20 magnitude (brighter than fireworks). No sound.

Full Report Text:

Unidentified orange ball of light observed ascending from ground into sky, lost sight of object in clouds. I had just gotten off of work and was driving home when I observed a bright orange ball go from ground level and into the clouds. The object was bright enough to light up the clouds around it, and at first glance I thought it was the moon.

The object did not appear to have a shape that I could see but the light was bright enough to have a kind of flare effect. As I watched the ball of light ascend into the clouds I lost track of it. There weren't many clouds in the sky that morning I could see stars clearly.

The object did not appear to alter its course in any way and I assumed it was a rocket launch from the nearby Kennedy Space Center. When I arrived home I could find no reference of any launches and when I turned on the NASA channel they were not covering any launches. I was facing east on Osceola Parkway and the object appeared east-north-east of my position.

I think it has to be a rocket launch of some sort from KSC, but cannot find any informat! ion regarding this. Further, I have witnessed two launches from the NASA causeway and viewed several launches from the Orlando area. All previous launches left vapor trails, this did not.
