woken up by knocking in a dream//yellow flashes of light(and noises) that seemed to cause a momentary power outage I messaged my friend on discord as this experience occurred and they directed me here. I didn't think it had anything to do with aliens, but it really freaked me out. I don't remember anything of the dream- just very calm knocking, a very surreal knocking that seemed so real it woke me up to a raging storm.
(***hiding my username)Today at 4:23 AM the craziest shit happened the craziest stuff just happened i saw a huge flash of light, then the power went out then i heard a loud beep, and it came back on and everything started whirring and I heard a loud click, everything started running again, then i heard a huge bang and saw a huge flash of bright yellow light from my window and the power went out again and so I rushed to unplug my pc which is right infront of the window, the next time it happened I was looking out the window and the same noises and beeping from outside but I saw nothing but blinding yellow light for about half a second? No thunder but I think lightning hit my house!!! it happened a total of 3 x i was looking out the window, and i couldnt see what flashed it would just flash no thunder I think the circuit thing must be right under my window and it was making loud bangs and flashing Right before too, I heard knocking in my dream like 10 mins ago and it woke me up and its super windy and storming really hard, and then this happened (P.S. I checked, there is nothing but wall under my window.
No circuitry or anything that could've caused the flashing and banging. I live on the top floor and my neighbors yard is visible from my window, lol).

Large spherical silver light hovering over field/valley near freeway In summer of 2017 or 2018, leaving from Pleasant Street in Brunswick, Maine onto 295 and going north to Topsham for lunch. I noticed a large number of lower flying airplanes. There were several passenger planes as well as what looked like jets.
Which is not completely foreign as Brunswick has a decommissioned naval base that does still do training, but typically not with jets. The planes seemed to be doing turns and going back and forth and not just flying through. While returning to Brunswick south on 295 roughly 15 minutes later, I turned onto the Brunswick off ramp that merges with Pleasant street.
It is a sharp U turn off ramp, as you drive and before starting to turn there is a small field on the left that is lower than the roads so more like a valley; that is surrounded with pine trees. There is no access to field unless you’re pulling over on the side of the freeway and walking into it. The trees and guard rails block and vehicles from pulling into th! e field.
Hovering maybe 30 feet over the valley was large, maybe the size of a school bus silver bright light. I didn’t see any actual physical object just a bright blinding light. The light seemed to be moving slightly up and down as if it was hovering.
The light also seemed to thin towards the outer edges. I only remember a fragment of the moment; I don’t remember much before pulling back into my works parking lot. Just the blinding light, I don’t remember passing it or pulling away from it.
I do remember looking back up into the sky and seeing that it was a clear day with few clouds. The section I saw the light by the freeway does not have any buildings in view. Even during winter when trees are bare.
There are no towers with lights and the river that runs near the freeway is not in view of that section.

the lights where brighter than the space station. We both noticed it and mentioned it to one another and while we where looking at the object the light disappeared. The object just vanished from sight.

Two slow moving, then hovering, objects in night sky. 9pm – We were in our back yard, looking up at the Moon, when we noticed two “aircraft lights” a little “west” of the moon, about the height that we usually see airplanes. Planes regularly fly over our house, at a high altitude; we see the lights blinking and sometimes a red light from the taillight.
My husband said that’s weird the lights on those planes aren’t blinking. I was like oh ok who cares. Then he was like also one of them isn’t moving, they are just hovering.
Then we thought helicopter?? But it seemed really high for a helicopter and we couldn’t hear anything, we can usually hear a faint roar when a plane flies over. So then one of the “lights” starts moving really slowly through the clouds heading east, while the other stayed still. An actual plane flew by as this was happening, the plane was much faster with blinking lights and we could hear it.
The east light moved for about 5-6 minutes then stopped and hovered. The west light started moving really slowly as well, for about 2 minutes then stopped. They both just stayed there, seemingly equidistant from the moon (from what we could tell) for about 20 minutes before a large black storm cloud obscured them from view.

Day Light Disk I was heasding east on 295 into Brunswick when I saw the disk heading north just below the clouds. It seemed to be reflecting the sunlight but because of it's location to the cloud and the time of day I realized that would be imposible. It was traveling at a high rate of speed and I lost track of it while I was driving.
I'm chosing to to identify myself because of my affiliation with the Defense Department. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

4 star shaped lights appearing over Mere Point bay ~ Brunswick ME While sitting at Mere Point Bay tonight, I saw 4 seperate star shaped "lights" that radiated beams of BRIGHT white light in an 8 pointed star shape. They were increasing and decreasing in size, and pulsating a bright inner white glow. They also spun in clockwise/counter-clockwise rotations, moved at inconsistent speeds, and made split second changes in direction.
The first "light" came from below the tree line on the Eastern side of the bay, it literally lit up the trees and the surrounding forest as it moved upwards and then sort of "danced" above the tree tops.it then drifted out over the bay where I could see it reflecting in the water and then it >poof The next 3 lights appeared from same area on the eastern part of the bay and moved in a very slow, stop and go fashion over the water, moving up and down, left to right, sort of dancing, and then gradually dimmed out and disapeared, or moved out of my line of sight. This all occured over an hours time.
What I hope you will find MOST interesting is that over the past 3 years I have seen these same sorts of "lights" (and other lights) all around Maine; I see them all the time!!! Each sighting is differant in the "ufo's" basic properties, behaviors, and duration. Actually the report listed here on 9/6/02 was written by my mother in North Carolina after a phone call I'd made to her one terrifying night 3 years ago while living in Richmond ME. Just prior to that night a police officer had responded to a call I made and witnessed my "lights" as well, he then went on to report it to your hotline on my behalf.
I am very simply ~ A 32 year old Mother of three children who simply wants to know the TRUTH. What are they? And why are they here?.

Very unusual, fast moving craft with sequential light display at high altitude, Maine, 23Nov03 I have no particular background that would make me sensitive or more informed than the average person regarding UFO's. I work nights & was outdoors with my dogs for a few minutes before leaving for work & was admiring the stars when I saw something unusual as I'll describe in the following paragraphs I looked at the clock as I let the dogs out, it was 11:46 pm EST. When I re-entered the house it was 11:50.
As I mentioned, I was standing on my back deck looking at the night sky, being generally thankful for a clear night for my newspaper route & enjoying a last cup of coffee. I live near a naval air station, directly under the flight pattern between 2 rivers they tend to follow when getting practice air time as well as typical approaches & landings. The base is a Nato base, so I'm accustomed to seeing all types of aircraft & have worked on several military bases, including this one, while employed by a general construction contractor.
I also am accustomed to seeing civilian aircraft over my home at a high altitude (much higher since Bosnia). What I saw last evening was entirely different from typical civilian & military aircraft. It did, however seem to be following the path of the civilian craft that go over my area.
It was travelling from a South-South West direction, inland direction. Brunswick, Maine is very near the coast; I am personally about a 5 minute drive from the ocean, a couple minutes from any of 3 rivers. The description: I have heard on coasttocoast.
com when you spoke descriptions of ferris wheel type sitings. This almost represented that, but I couldn't be sure if it was round or if it was just the rotation of light sequence that I was seeing. It may have been a different shape or even, of course, a civilian aircraft.
The lights appeared to number several or many, some red, some green & some white. The white ones lit up the bottom which gave a little definition as to its shape & confused me some. With the rotation light sequence it appeared to be round, but the white lights made it appear more typical aircraft shaped.
What made me feel very deeply that it wasn't a typical aircraft was the speed it travelled at. My line of vision between where I first saw it, & where I lost sight of it behind pine trees was slight. I've jsut measured it outdoors holding my hands up & I would say there was, with arms extended only about 2 feet between them.
It covered a relatively large piece of sky in a very short period, I would guess I only saw it maybe even less than 15 seconds & it was out of view. In this area, the military aircraft are generally very low & in view quite a while & civilian aircraft generally show 1 flashing red light on the bottom that I've noticed & are visible for a longer period. This was just all of a sudden & view & then gone.
There was nothing unusual about the noise it made for an aircraft at that altitude. Just a general rumbling noise & I had to actually make sure it wasn't another noise in the neighborhood, but it was definitely aircraft generated. Perhaps those that flew overhead, last weekend, I believe (that I unfortunately missed seeing, but heard of on coast to coast)were making a return trip?.
I have just scrolled down to the contact info area & have decided I will also call your hot line number. I'll be on a cell phone (with free nights & weekends) & hope this is satisfactory. ((NUFORC Note: We spoke with this witness, and found her to be quite credible.
PD)).

Four of us saw an unrecognizable 'orb' silhouetted against the setting sun, c7:30 PM tonight in Brunswick, Maine. On Wednesday night, August 14, 2002, two of my neighbors, a friend of theirs, and I saw a circular 'orb'against the setting sun. From our viewpoint on Maquoit Bay in Brunswick, Maine, this object appeared to be located somewhere in the upper left quadrant of the sun, close to the left-most edge.
Our varied takes: a planet, a sunspot, a lost weather balloon. Immediate questions: Are any planets scheduled to pass between the earth and the sun? Can sunspots be seen with the naked eye? Stationary balloon? I'm a semi-retired librarian. The husband of the neighboring couple works for L.
L. Bean; the wife is an independent producer for television and magazines. I have not met their friend.

Navy aircraft completely illuminated by moving, elevated bright green light hovering over airfield Bright green light source witnessed by P-3C aircrew preflighting for a night mission. Completely filled the interior of the aircraft. To aircrew inquiry, tower reported no other aircraft using the field that night.
My source for this sighting is ((name and rank deleted)), a veteran P-3 naval flight ((position deleted)) who was the ((title deleted)) onboard the aircraft in question. He was ((deleted)) at another command at Brunswick. Very reputable ((rank deleted) with a TS clearance.
This event clearly spooked him. The lights were seen by other witnesses later that morning in Portland. Reported in local newspapers.
Not quite sure of the date. I have filled this page out several times, but have problems filing the report. Call for more details.
