Fast moving object with lights in Southern sky over Naples, Florida traveling West to East. While looking to the South, I witnessed a very fast moving object which had at least 2 visible lights on it, moving from West to East above the tree tops, but far enough away to suspect it was off at a distance of miles. It traveled faster than any human occupied object, and turned to the South before speeding off quickly even faster.

It made no noise, nor did noise arrive after it passed.

My bedroom window faces the backyard, which is full of wild aloe, trees, bushes, NO houses, NO roads. Just prior to sunrise, I was awakened by bright lights. At first I thought it was a car driving by, but then wondered what car, there's no road or house outside of my window.

So then I thought it may have been a flashlight? Was there someone outside of my window? About a minute later I saw three circular white lights in line with each other and a single on beneath flashing through my bedroom window's curtain; this was definitely not a flashlight. I was too frightened to look out the window. The lights didn't return once the sun rose.

Found this website and previous posts lead me to believe what I saw. Did anyone else see these? This is the second occurrence.

This craft was silent, had no lights, but glowed, & I have never seen anything like it! A friend & myself, observed an oval shaped orange & white glow move across his house. It was approximately 1,000 to possibly 1,500 miles up. Came from the East, heading in a straight line West.

It was silent, did not stop, but kept a straight path west, towards the Gulf of Mexico. It was oval shaped, glowed in orange, & had a sliver of white light. No lights were detected on this craft, such as an airplane or helicopter.

I researched my sighting description online, & found exact images of what my friend & I saw from many others in many countries, termed as Japanese lanterns.

several orange colored lights in west sky of Bonita Springs, there 1 moment and gone the next Today, 12-7-13 in Bonita Springs,FL at approximately 6:45pm I saw what looked to be like orange colored lights in the sky to the west. I saw 10 to 15 lights that normally I would have taken them to be stars but given the color of the sky at the time, and the fact that they were an unusual color and standing out so much I don't think they could have been stars. They were positioned much closer to the horizon and given the color of the sky behind them they couldn't have been stars.

I looked higher up and located a normal star and it was much whiter in color. I drove my car up further on the road I was on, I looked for them again and they were all gone, I couldn't locate 1 of them. If they were stars I would have been able to see them again.

Amazing ball of light that changed colors, shapes, and morphed into different forms. I caught the images on video and still photos. ((NUFORC Note: Possible twinkling star?? PD)) I was putting my son to bed and was drawn to the window by a bright light.

When I looked outside it was a big ball of light changing colors and flashing. Brighter than any normal lights. I grabbed my camera and began taking photos for more than one hour.

I quit while it was still there thinking I must be crazy and thought I would go out in the morning and see some sort of pole with a light on it, or other rational explanation. But there was nothing. Many photos came out just blank and others are extraordinary.

I ended up with about 50 that show the formation of different shapes, splitting apart and coming back together, and in the photos it appears to be farther away and sometime closer. But to my naked eye it never moved, only pulsated. I shot video as well but that only captured a flashing light and a hint of changing shapes and colors.

I have seen similiar footage of that online. It is the still photos that really captured actual images and shapes. I h! ad to suppress my flash as when I used that I just got a blank screen, so the photos show the lights with a black background as it was dark.

I'm not sure who to have look at my photos as I believe no one has ever captured what I did. Video doesn't capture it. I still have the photos on my camera and cell phone camera to prove I did not alter the images in any way.

Any suggestions of who is an expert to have look at them?.

Orange ball of light moving horizontally through the sky towards the Gulf of Mexico. It was New Years Eve 2011. My friends and I were outside watching the fireworks go off in my neighborhood.

While watching for fireworks we all noticed this orange ball of light that was moving horizontally across the sky. There were no blinking lights or spotlights; I am positive it was not an airplane or helicopter. I am not sure what it was that we saw.

It stayed at the same height going straight across the sky horizontally for about 3 minutes. We knew it wasn't a firework because it didn't have a tail and it also wasn't going up it was moving to West. After the 3 minutes it disappeared as it was too far away to see.

It was the weirdest thing.

High altitude amber balls of light move across sky then appear to leave atmosphere above Bonita Springs, FL. I am a 20-year-old college student, and I live in Bonita Springs, FL. I work as a waiter and a carpenter and go to school as well.

I understand the skepticism regarding UFOs. I accept the existence of aliens as extremely likely, but I recognize that there are people who misidentify things they see or falsify reports for attention or other personal gains. This is where my skepticism lies; not in the subject of UFOs, but those who report them.

This may seem ironic as I myself am reporting a sighting, but my hope is that this report will not be disregarded. I have neither a desire nor motive to claim to see something I did not. That being said, I do wear contact lenses and had them in during the sighting.

I was not under the influence of alcohol, tobacco, or any other drug with the exception of caffeine as I had a cup of coffee about ten minutes before the sighting occurred. What I witnessed occurred for approximately five minutes at 8:10 pm in the eastern sky. There was not a cloud in the sky and the stars were visible in all directions.

At about 8:00 pm I finished my cup of coffee and then took my dog for a walk. A couple of minutes into my walk, I saw a shooting star in the southern sky as I was about to turn left (to the east) onto another street. This got my attention, and I began to observe the night sky in hopes of possibly seeing another.

Now heading east, I continued walking, periodically scanning the sky. It was after another few minutes that I first noticed an amber ball of light, which struck me as being at a very high altitude, moving from south to north across the sky. It was about 45 degrees above the horizon at first, but then it turned to the east while slowly climbing degree by degree above the horizon, getting smaller and smaller.

It appeared to me that this light had turned away from me and was gaining more and more altitude. It began to twinkle, much like a star, as it got smaller and smaller until I could no longer see it. I continued walking east down the street and checking the area of the sky for another minute until I reached the point at which I normally turn around.

Seeing nothing where the light was, I turned around and began walking to the west. About a minute later I stopped and turned around and looked to the area of the sky where I had seen the amber speck of light. I observed a second moving in the same south to north fashion as the first at about the altitude.

I watched it briefly until a car was coming and I turned back around. A few seconds later looked back again and could not locate the light which I attribute to a nearby street light. I continued walking west.

I checked the sky over my shoulder three more times as I walked, and on the third scan I saw a third light. It too was the same amber color as the first two, but it was moving away from me to the east, and climbing degree by degree above the horizon as it did so. I feel this was a spate light from the second as this one was more to the right (south) in the sky than the first two were.

Again my impression was that this light was both gaining altitude and moving away from me, getting smaller and smaller. There was no street light nearby, so I was able to observe this light for the longest before I could no longer see it. As it got very small, it emitted a single pulse of white light which was much larger and more intense than the amber ball itself.

The ball then rapidly became extremely tiny in the sky, twinkling until I could see it off and on for a short while then not at all. Only after the balls were gone did I notice other aircraft flying in the sky, mainly because this is when I looked for them. I saw several, all much closer to the horizon than the amber balls were, and they were all equipped with strobe and running lights.

Three in particular caught my attention. They were headed to the east and appeared to by flying in a widely spaced diagonal line formation. Whether or not they were military I do not know, but that was my initial impression.

These balls of amber lights and the pulse of white light emitted by one are beyond my identification. I do not believe they were ball lightning as the sky was perfectly clear. My theory is that the lights I observed were those given off by the method of propulsion used by alien craft.

This is only my best guess however, and while I do realize there may be other explanations, I could not think of one that fits to what I saw.

Very bright solid gold disc sighted in Bonita Springs, FL Very bright solid gold flash in the shape of an oval or disc, streaked across the sky as I drove north on Highway 41 in Bonita Springs, FL around 10pm on 4/8/09. It too was traveling north. It was quite low, maybe 200 yards high, and moved at an incredible rate of speed.

Sighting only lasted approximately 2-3 seconds.

White circle of multiple lights in Bonita Springs, FL At about 10:00pm to 10:15pm eastern daylight time, I sited a circle of lights, black in the center, at about Northwest from I-75 and Bonita Beach Road in Bonita Springs Florida. I attempted to take pictures but the pictures appeared as a mottled solid circle. Much of the mottling was due to the high ISO 800 setting that was required to shoot the pictures.

The object would seem to be over water. The lights dimmed as though obscured by clouds. They would then increase with intensity.

The object remained in the same position for some time, maybe ½ hour or more.

I observed two lights flying in and out of a cloud formation. The flight pattern was unlike a normal aircraft flight pattern. I retired from the Air Force and am familiar with normal flight patterns.

As the cloud dissapated the lights disappeared. I made a short video with my digital camera and will e mail it to you.

Two formation flying lights and red spheres flew across the sky out of distance. I saw two white lights in formation one ahead of the other surrounded by red sphere's of transparent light. They were moving straight across the sky at around 20 degrees as fast as a shooting star but without a trail, then they flew out of distance Airplanes, comets, or satelites are out of the question as I have observed these before.

Bright white objects in night sky seen in SW Florida While watching tv, I turned my head towards my husband and a bright white light caught my eye. The curtains were open to the kitchen window, since I really wanted to see for sure what my husband and neighbor had seen on the fourth while outside watching the neighborhood fireworks. The city display had exploded out on Lover's Key shortly before.

It was much brighter than the moon and had no craters, which I look at through my telescope. It moved slowly from north to the south. Seemed to be a football shape.

I made a picture of what I remember, but have no way to post it, a watercolor painting. I almost always have something to say, but didn't even say anything to him til after. A couple weeks later saw 2 of same further away in SW sky, at first thought they were strange stars which looked out of place, I was going to check them with my star chart, until I realized they "backed off" out of sight, like they caught me looking at them.

I felt they came because of the Lover's Key incident, and keep an eye on things.
