Falling blue glowing light object from early morning sky. I seen an unknown blue light object falling from night sky down in a neighborhood early this morning as I was walking home. Now I always see falling stars( falling artroils),but never one with blue light.

Could they have blue glow? Or the Unknown object is so far a mystery?.

Sunlight in the dark I was driving home from a party with four friends the sat morning before christmas around 7a.m. When one of my friends said is that a plane.

I was driving n look up n there was this lit object moving very fast in the most metaphysical ways. Up down n back around. It stopped in the sky in the clouds n got bright as the sun.

it was still dark out so it lit up the sky. this was very frightening. it looked like a black canopy with a hole cut in it with light on the other side.

I thought it might b a nuke. Then I saw two fighter jets fly toward it then it dissapeared. The smoke trail it left was incredible.

Figure eights, zig-zags, then at the top a perfect 3d cube. None of our phones would work to take a pic. Well bout five to nine fighter jets began flying straight up then down and all over all morning.

I was in seven 11 parkin lot n pointed them out to bystanders, who at the time were oblivious. they were shocked at the site of the fighter jets. I was so excited by the incident, that i called my dad to tell him of the events, n to c if he could see the jets.

I called my exgirlfriend who lives in philadelphia, n she said there were a bout 8 fighter jets in the sky up there, this was around 9a.m. My dad called back and said there had been a newsflash of the reports.

The media said that the government shot off two missles off of an island off of virginia. They made no mention of why, and made no other mention of it. They blamed the smoke trail on the weather.

The smoke trail itself was incredible because it sat in the air for a good ten minutes. i have met six other people than my friends that witnessed the same event. The fighter jets were in the sky until dark.

My exgirlfriend told me that she saw on the news that they were saying they released a new fighter jet that day, explaining why they were in the sky. Y did the government shoot off rockets for no reason, then have fighter jets go after it. The hole the others from the ohare airport describe sounds similar to ! the ligh t n how it dissapeared.

It was the most amazing thing my eyes have seen. They cant deny the truth forever. 1 ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain semi-anonymous; provides only telephone number.

The missile launch occurred at approximately 07:00 hrs. (Eastern) on Saturday morning, December 16, 2006. We have corrected the date above.

I was walking to the other side of campus to visit a friend. It was snowing and incredibly cold. I could hear a loud bell, almost like a Christmas bell, continuously ringing.

It got louder as I walked through campus. I noticed that nobody was around. It was so loud that I had to use my hands and cover my ears.

I could see a woman running in the distance, so I approached her and asked, “what is that sound?” She said “What sound?” and when she said that, I saw a bright flash go across the sky and the sound stopped. I said “never mind”. It was incredibly weird.

v shaped greenlights seen in evening cloudy sky in baltimore watching night sky over watershed area, in particular was watching buzzards on fri evening which was very windy but warm. Initially noted blinking green light in clouds but later concluded these v shaped moving lights were buzzards who were possibly being tracked. Unable to find any info on internet regarding tracking of buzzards using green lights, saw this link and it sounded like others have spotted something similar recently.

There was a very large gathering of buzzards, more than normal for a given evening over the watershed.

Parallel lines moving from West to East in the sky On Nov. 28th I was awakened at EXACTLY midnight by our Donkey outside in the yard. I looked out the window and into the sky to see white lights in the distace almost like fireworks thru the trees.

I noticed these lights moving from West to East thru the trees at a very slow pace. I live in the pathway of the Baltimore Washington International airport so I have seen many planes in the sky. This certainly was not one of them.

As the object got a little closer and between the trees again I saw what appeared to be two parallel lines of BRIGHT white and green lights. I did not hear the typical commercial airline noises. I watched the object move from West to East at a very slow pace until it was out of my spectrum.

Returning from work my husband and I spotted a huge glowing, intense lights that resembled a fire, along the woods on 8th avenue, Glen Burnie.We pulled over, and we were going to report a fire except there was no smoke and the lights seemed to shift around from white, red and orange and shine above the tree line. We sat trying to figure out what it could be for a matter of moments.

We proceeded on Crain Hwy, the lights were visible behind the industrial buildings so it was a pretty large area.While stopping at the gas station on the corner we noticed a few people gassing up their cars were pretty perplexed by the lights as well.After we returned from a near by 24 hour diner the lights were gone, and there was no sign anything had happend.

Bright white light moving west to east over central Maryland At approximately 19:05, 20 October 2006, from my backyard I observed a very bright light in the western sky. I watched it sporadically for about a minute when I realized that it was moving slowly west to east and did not display any of the normal commercial aircraft warning lights. As we live very close to Baltimore-Washington International Airport we are very familiar with the characteristics of normal commercial aircraft, both during the day and at night.

At that time the light was about two times as bright as Sirus is at it's brightest. I grabbed a pair of 10X binoculars and watched it for about two minutes. It passed almost directly over my house.

During that time the brightness intensified to about three or four times that of Sirus. I could see none of the normal aircraft warning lights; there were no wing-tip red/green lights and no strobe lights. The light displayed by the craft was entirely too bright to be the normal aircraft landing lights we are used to seeing at night.

I ran inside, called my wife to follow me, and went out the front door. We both watched it for another minute or two before it went out of sight behind some trees. It passed less than a mile south of BWI Airport at about 19:11.

The brightness of the light intensified as it approached my house and lessened as it moved away. However, the light was a constant white color, very comparable to the color of Sirus, but without the splashes of color that I often see in Sirus. The intensity of the light was the only variable I noticed.

As close as I can estimate, the light approached from a bearing of about 250 degrees (true) and departed on a bearing of about 70 degrees (true). I would further estimate that the light would have passed almost directly over the intersection of routes 100 and 170 at about 19:10. I could not discern any craft or shape against the sky.

The weather was clear and visiblity was excellent. The stars were easily seen; there was no moon. Although I do not kow what it might have been, it was not a star or a commercial aircraft, and it was much, much brighter than any satellite I've seen before.

7-10 objects, Multicolored Lights, No Noise, Oval Shaped The first thing I saw was an oval shaped object with several seperate multi-colored lights flashing in sequence around the sides of the object. The lights were Red or Orange, Blue, White, Yellow, and Green. The manner in which they flashed resembeled the rotator lights on most fire engines, not really a flash, but almost as if the light was spinning.

The lights would also change position. They were lower to the ground then a plane would be. Low enough to be able to make out the outline of the object.

As it was moving it started to decline slowly and went behind a tree. I waited for it to re-appear on the other side for about 2 minutes and it never re-appeared. When I turned around there were 7-8 other identical objects in other nearby areas of the sky.

One of them also went behind a tree for about 2 seconds and did not come out the other side, instead it came out the same side it came in. Others, changed speed, although not drastically. I also did not notice any noise, it was almost completely silent.

Relatives in Harford County also reported seeing a strange object in the sky about 30-40 minutes after my sighting.

The object captured in a photograh appeared to be a silver disk/saucer above the Chesapeake Bay. I was in Havre De Grace Maryland to see the Concord Point lighthouse. I took several pictures of the Concord Point lighthouse.

Later that day I downloaded the pictures I had taken. I selected one of the pictures of the Concord Point lighthouse and printed the photograh on a photo quality printer. I noticed that above the lighthouse, over the Chesapeake Bay was an object in the sky.

It stood out in the brilliant blue sky. It looked like a metallic object. When I cropped the picture to get a closer look, it looked pictures I've seen of objects identified as a flying saucer.

I had taken another picture from the same location approximately 3 seconds later. The object was no where to be seen. There is a couple in both photograhs to indicate the short span in time.

Cylinder shaped UFO that came to my wedding! It was my wedding night. I was staying at The Oaks Inn where my wedding was held the night before. It is located in the countryside in Royal Oak, Maryland.

I went out to the deck to smoke a cigarette when dawn was breaking. It was then that I saw the brown cylinder hanging in the air. It looked like a metal drum which was bark brown in color.

It had an antenna sticking out of the bottom. It was floating above the water and started to move westward toward Easton. As soon as it was light enough it disappeared in the air.

birght satellite -like nocturnal light with a distinctly orange color wher no satellite should have been. I was out walking just a few minutes before midnight, and saw approaching out of the Northeast what looked like an unusually bright and unusually orange satellite. Its motion and appearance were just that, but it was almost midnight, and the light passed nearly overhead and to the southwest until it became invisible behind clouds near the Southwest horizon.

Planes nearly always exhibit strobes, are only orange colored when near the horizon, and without exception look a lot different as they change their aspect angle with respect to the observer, and this light didn't. I checked the time on my cell phone, and it was 23:58 - nearly midnight. The sun was just about at +7 degrees declination.

From that, I calculate that altitude would have to have been about 2500 km to be visible overhead at local midnight from my location (about 39 deg N). A large rocket body in transfer orbit might well be at such an altitude, but I don't think it could be that bright at that slant range (roughly 3700 km or more at first), or that consistently orangish/yellow. Since it moved from northeast to southwest, if what I saw was a satellite, it would have to be in a retrograde orbit.

There have been quite a few of these, but nearly all are low orbiters, well below 1000 km altitude. I tried to find a candidate satellite. It would need an apogee altitude of at least 1000 km (more likely 2000 km), and an inclination greater than 90 degrees.

This really cuts the list down to about 20 candidates. There were several potentially visible birds at about that time, but all would have been in the northwest and would not have passed anywhere near overhead while illuminated by the sun. I used both commercial and software and web-based tools to confirm this.

Bright light in sky, then dims, then disappears. 0455L. I'm in the back yard smoking and drinking coffee.

All of a sudden everything becomes brighter as if a full moon just appeared. I look up and there is this bright "star" in the sky. It is 4-5 times as bright as Jupiter would be in the sky and it doesn't move.

It remains bright for about 2 seconds, then slowly dims to a faint dot. The faint dot then moves very slowly for about 2 seconds, then disappears. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

Tan,yellow,and red lights around the rim and it made a buzzing and beeping sound. I was in my bed trying to go to sleep when I suddenly see a flash of light outside my window. I got up and a oval shaped flying thing with red,yellow, and tan colored lights around the rim and it made a buzzing and beeping sound.

Then I blinked and it was gone. ((NUFORC Note: Report submitted by student. Date may be approximate, although the witness does not indicate that fact.

15 purple lights quikly change formation before vanishing. About 15 purple lights that changed formation 3 times before they disapeared. I was walking home from school one day when I decided to look at the sky for a moment.

It was a cloudy day and the clouds were very dark. I couldnt belive my eyes. I saw about 15 bright purple lights moving very fast from the east to west.

I guess maybe 600 mph. They were very high, just below the clouds and were in "c" formation for about 5 seconds. Then they made u turn and flew right over me.

I expected hear a noise like a sonic boom or some thing but there was no sound. And when they turned around, they seemed to change formation at the same time and they seemed to merge together into one large bright light. This light seemed to change colors very rapidly.

But as soon as they merged, they broke off into about 20 lights. They all turned to back to the original color purple when they lined up side by side. All that happened in about 5 seconds before they were suddenly engulfed by a bright blue light that came out of no where and the light slowly faded.

It was completly gone after about a minute and the lights had gone with it. But the area in the clouds where they had been looked like it was glowing a purple-green color and looked like it was radiating some kind of plasma. But it only lasted a few seconds.

I looked around to see if anyone else had seen it but I was the only one who had seen it. I drew a sequnce of pictures that depicted what I saw. I was to nervous to tell anyone about till now.

I hope that explanes every thing. ((NUFORC Note: Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)).

A light in the sky emmited multiple objects that came in our atmosphere, way more intense than any other sightings i've heard of. It was 5:30 a.m.

July 17, 2006 and me and a friend were standing in his back yard. We saw a light just above the horizon where the sun was coming up.there were no stars in the sky because the sun was rising, but this stayed visable, so we examined it for a while.

we kept seeing multiple flashes around the area of the light, so we continued to watch and see what was going on.after about 30 mins i saw what i would say was a wave of energy come from the light, it was in the shape of an arch and was colorfull, and i felt that something big was happening, for a few second i actually feard for my life.just after this small burst i saw multiple objects shaped like J's turned 90 degrees to the right, coming from the direction of the light.

they appeared very small from where we were, but they were within the atmosphere.we watched as they went in seperate directions across the sky.after we could no longer see the small objects, we continued watching the light.

after a few minutes, the objects returned from the direction they had gone in and were heading towards the light.after a minute, we no longer saw the objects and the light began to fade until we couldn't see it anymore.ever since this event occured about 17 hours ago, the sky has felt much more occupied than before, i can't shake the fealing that w/e i saw is still present.
