Orange ufo sighted in Monroe near I-75 While sitting outside of our hotel, directly next to I-75, my friend and I noticed a peculiar orange orb in the sky flying due east; seemed to be a few thousand feet in the sky. It was orange, and did not blink but stayed a constant orange, with an almost burning quality to it. It did not shift direction but proceeded east until vanishing a few miles east of our position.
The duration of our experience lasted approx 90-120 seconds….

Upright triangular type craft with something flying into it, over river and fields in Monroe. I was outside having a smoke at about 3:15 or 3:30 am. Something red and low flying appeared over the river I live on.
At first it looked like maybe a glowing orb. It started out as a dark red and then it became a brighter red. It went up over the river and proceeded to fly over M-50 and then over the fields.
The shape seemed to change from what looked like an orb to more of a triangle, but it was upright. So not flying on the wind, but against the wind. It was still flying low, and it changed from red to more of a bright gold.
Then, something white shot out of the sky at the triangle. It looked like it entered the upright triangle craft. The triangle was sizeable, not sure how big, but it looked bigger than a helicopter.
As it ascended into the sky, it was followed by a loud, low rumbling sound. I put down that there were two crafts because of the one main upright triangle, and the white thing that shot into it. The white thing looked like a tail as it flew! in.

Flashing light ufos around River Raisin area This sighting was actually from approx. 11 pm on 4/18 through 4/19 because the ufos were out there for over 3 hours, til after 2 am. I went out last night a little before 11 pm and saw one flashing light across the river, near the tree line.
It was hovering and moving slowly, staying basically in the same general area but would move slightly up or down. I went outside again around midnight and a second light was out there, across the river, just above the tree line. I watched it for a few minutes and suddenly it disappeared.
I was looking and wondering where it went, then suddenly it reappeared but was blinking, and it moved to my side of the river. Then it disappeared again. I went inside and told my mom.
We looked out her bedroom window and it was there again. We watched it for a few minutes and saw that it was moving slowly, like the other one. I went upstairs to my bedroom, where I could still see it out my window, and checked periodically.
At one point,! the ufo moved again. When it moves, the light blinks. It flew up to the sky and I couldn't see it anymore for a few minutes.
But then it came back again! Another flashy light appeared above M-50 that I hadn't noticed before. At one point I saw an airplane come up and fly right by the ufo above the river.

Orange lights flying low over the river in Monroe Michigan I saw a bright light come down from the sky that looked like a shooting star but it was heading in a downward direction. It had a tail with a few little lights behind it. The light went away when it reached near the horizon, a few minutes later a low, slow flying orange light could be seen upstream (west) on the river i was near.
Looking through a pair of binoculars, I could see three lights in a triangle formation. The triangle wasn't perfect, the top light was a bit more towards the right, which was also the direction it seemed to be heading. The light was so bright at some points, it could be seen reflecting on the river.
It slowly traveled east over some farmland, and disappeared from my view behind trees. I continued to observe the sky and saw a similar if not the same object in the eastern sky heading west. Again it was flying low and slow over fields and disappeared from my sight behind the same grouping of trees.

Two strange crafts seen above the river, both had three lights in triangle formation I went outside to smoke shortly after midnight, and my boyfriend pulled up into the driveway. He got out of his car and asked me "did you see that?" I had just gotten outside so I asked him what he was talking about and he said he saw a bright flash of light shoot down from the sky like a comet. I then noticed a bright orange light above the River Raisin.
I ran and got my binoculars and we hurried to the backyard. I live on the riverfront, and the light was west of us. It was flying very low, approximately at the tree line.
We could see the light reflecting on the river as well. It began coming closer, in our direction. As it got closer, we could see on the front of the craft, it had 3 square or rectangle shaped lights, in a triangle formation.
The lights appeared to be white as it came closer to us. It got really close before it moved behind the tree line across the river from us and disappeared behind the trees. Another craft just like it was approaching f! rom the east, also above the river.
It did the same thing as the other one- moved across the river and behind the trees. At that point we could see the light behind the trees and they were flying very low. They both disappeared and we didn't know where they went after that.
I am unsure of the shape of the crafts. All we could really tell was that the lights were in a triangle formation with two on the bottom and one light above. But we couldn't really see what the shape of the whole thing looked like.
I just know that when we first saw them, they just looked like orange lights, but as they came closer, the lights were white.

Light flying in from above, descending, hovering I finally made some headway and got to see it fly in. I've been seeing these weird lights at night lately, and I've posted about them here before. I would like to clarify that it is neither a planet, nor a star because I actually saw it fly in.
A green light flew down from above, and descended, moving around from side to side momentarily as if it was looking for where to stop, and then it stopped and just hovered in a location northeast of me. I am on M-50, the ufo looks like it is up past North Custer road. Looking through the binoculars on a night that is becoming progressively more foggy, it is hard to see anything other than a green circular light.
It has moved up a little bit from where it was before, but it is out there as I type this. I probably wont stay up all night watching it but it's been out there for a little over an hour.

Weird spinning light UFO above the fields between Monroe and Ida (yet again) I think the time I saw this was sometime between midnight and 1:00 am, but it was out there until well after 2 am. This is the same light I've seen out there before, yet again, above the fields along M-50, between Monroe and Ida. I am still not sure what the shape is, I tend to think it is either a disc or saucer shape, but it is hard to make out.
The colors of the lights are white, red and a greenish or green/blue color that seem to be flashing and spinning on the object. I watched it above the field across from my house for a while. Also, I did hear some sounds this time, but I don't know if they are related to the UFO.
The sounds were coming from the field, and they were like weird, loud chirping and squeaking sounds, but not like any animal I've heard out there. Maybe we have some loud birds out there that I don't know about. Don't know! Well, the sounds kinda scared me, so I went inside and then came back out later to check, and the UFO had moved to my ! side of the road, but was further down.
At that point, it was hovering between M-50 and Dixon Rd. I have seen this thing out here so many times lately that I now go outside every night to see if it is there. ((NUFORC Note: Star or planet?? PD)).

Weird light above the fields on M-50 again! I live on M-50 and I've been seeing weird lights outside on clear nights. Tonight is another clear night, and there was the same bright white light I've seen before, just hovering over M-50 and the fields. It seemed to have a bit of an aura around the light this time.
It was hovering the air for a while, I would say between 8:00 and 10:00 pm. I saw a LOT of other aircraft flying by it. I lost count of how many airplanes I saw coming through the sky and flying near this hovering object.
There were also other white lights blinking around it in the sky. The planes were higher up than the object, but flying all around it, so that means this ufo was much closer to earth. I think there might have been a few helicopters.
I got my binoculars out in an attempt to get a closer look. It was still hard to see the shape of the object because of the light, but it almost looked like it was flying saucer shaped! But like I said, I am not absolutely certain of the shape. Any! way, I had my mom come out and look at it, so she saw it too.
I went inside and then came back out a little later. The light had moved further away, and instead of being white, it had change to a red/orange color. I used my binoculars again, and watched it move further away.
It got far enough to where I could no longer see it with my own eyes, only with the binoculars, and then eventually completely disappeared from my sight. With the amount of airplanes and helicopters I saw moving around this thing, I am convinced that others are looking into this. I did see one car pull off the road, and I saw some other cars slowing down, so I want to assume that other people are seeing this.
((NUFORC Note: Possible sighting of Jupiter and Venus?? PD)).

Weird light above the fields in Ida, a takeoff and possible landing I live on M-50 in Monroe, close to Ida, MI. I went outside to have a cigarette and I noticed a weird light above the fields across the road from my house, in the direction of Ida. It looked like it was hovering and moving around slightly.
It seemed to be flashing a few different colors of light. live on M-50 in Monroe, close to Ida, MI. I went outside to have a cigarette and I noticed a weird light above the fields across the road from my house, in the direction of Ida.
It looked like it was hovering and moving around slightly. It seemed to be flashing a few different colors of light. The main color was white but it was also flashing red and blue or green.
I couldn't tell if those colors were part of the white light or if they were separate lights. The lights seemed to move around the white. I attempted to take photos but my camera was acting wonky.
It kept changing the settings, and I kept trying to take pictures, but no matter what I did, it wasn't showing up on the pictures. I went inside, and then went back about 15 minutes later and I didn't see the light in the sky anymore, but I saw something lower on the fields. Being very intrigued, I decided to get in the car and head out to Ida and see if there was anything.
On my way down M-50, I saw a very bright light, then it disappeared. Then I saw a light take off from where Dunbar road is. I don't know if that was the same light I saw above M-50, or if it was separate.
Kept driving until I got to Ida, and didn't see anything, so I turned back. Then, on my way down Ida-Maybee road, I looked at the fields, and suddenly saw what I think was a landing. I stopped the car and pulled over to look for a minute.
Yeah it's probably a dumb idea but I really wanted to see! I saw 3 big square white lights right ON the field flashing one after another. They looked like they were attached to some kind of object, but since it was dark, I couldn't tell the shape of it. I watched it for maybe a minute until I heard some weird sound that I can't even describe coming through the radio in my car.
It was definitely not a human. It was like a really weird voice saying something in another language. This scared the crap out of me me, so I got the out of there.
I must admit I have seen similar a similar light before, above those fields, multiple times. There also are a couple of other people I know who have seen things like this before. But I have never actually seen anything touch the ground before, so this was way more than I expected.
I'm so confused.
