Large extremely bright light traveling Northeast On Jun 25th at approx. 12:38am I observed an extremely bright light in the sky traveling extremely fast. It was heading Northeast.
I caught a glimpse of it for a couple of seconds and knew immediately it was not a familiar object. It seemed to be flying rather low in the sky and was brighter and faster than anything I had ever seen. It resembled a shooting start with a tail following behind it which could have been from the sheer speed of which it was moving.
It was clearly not a plane, nor was it the reflections of headlights in my windshield. It was a UFO.

Spacecraft over Gautier, Mississippi The object was very aerodynamic cylinder shape that slightly curved into a cigar shape. It had blue lights all around it and the object was of a white translucent material and it had 3 windows. When I took the photos they were moving at high rates of speed but with no sonic booms.
It would stop go up and down and around at 90 degree angle’s. And then it floated for about ten more seconds while moving forward and then disappeared behind the tree tops in the woods in Gautier,Ms it was pointed west and I was east of the craft. I saw the ufo in its entirety and I managed to snap some pictures of the craft.
I live in an apartment building that goes outside to my patio I live on ground floor.

4 Red lights seen over the gulf and appeared to drop red lights or flares. One red light was seen in the southern sky near the ocean, it hovered the appeared to drop a bright red flash/flare object, then dimmed and travelled east a bit then another came from the west and did the same thing, then joined the first one and the both traveled south east until they dropped behind something and i could no longer see the. Then we saw another one come from the west, repeat the same thing, and a fourth one, and repeat but when the 3rd and 4th joined they suddenly just disappeared from all sight.
I took a short video with my camera but it is really jumpy because I was shaking. What scared me the most was right before this happened, the temperature suddenly dropped a LOT out of absolute no where in a matter of seconds.

Four yellow and red objects in the night sky for several hours. On the night of 14 February, 2010, my husband and I were on our back porch and we noticed several unusual lights in the sky. There were four objects in total, each appearing to be triangular or diamond-shaped.
They were lit yellowish white at the center and had red spots at their edges. One object was immediately to the east. One was immediately to the west.
The last two were to the southeast and southwest. Around midnight a low-pitched humming noise could be heard, even within our home. The neighborhood is generally quiet at night, so the noise was easy to hear.
This is the second time that we have seen the lights. The previous time was the first or second Tuesday in January. Earlier that evening, there had been a series of sonic booms that were similar to a series of sonic booms heard all along the Gulf Coast last fall.
The booms were heard over several nights. During the initial sighting, an attempt at photographing the objects was made, but t! hey did not appear in the picture.

an orange fireball in the sky then 2 oblong forms with orange rotating lights, within a 10 minute time frame I am a high school counselor. My wife and I live together with my step daughter. I am 46 years of age and was at my house alone.
I do not drink or smoke. While talking on the phone on my front porch, I noticed a bright orange light in the sky. I turned and saw what appeared to be a ball of fire in the sky right above the trees.
It was huge. I told the person that I was talking to that I was watching a UFO. He said, “take a picture with your phone.
” Being the extremely technologically ignorant person that I am, I couldn’t figure out how to take a picture and continue to talk to my friend. He said hang up and take the picture, but by that time it was gone. I told him that I missed it and that no one would believe me.
After a bit more conversing, another object appeared. This time, off to the right of the first object. (It may have been the same object, but this time it was oblong with four rotating orange lights.
) I told my friend that it was back. He said, “Well, hang up and take a picture!” I ran down the steps; but as soon as I hung up, it was gone! As fast as the other 2 disappeared, another oblong shaped object appeared with four rotating orange lights this time to the left of the other two. Before I could get my phone to the picture mode, it was gone.
I don’t expect anyone to believe me, but it was a truly amazing site.

bright multi-colored lights emanate from disc flying/hovering silently approx 500 ft in the air I was visiting Gautier, MS for the summer in the late 70's and I remember there was a lot of talk in the media about a comet (or meteor) that would be visible early one morning between 2-3am. Being a curious person I set my clock to wake up so I could witness this celestial event. I went outside that morning and within a few minutes I did see some heavenly body streak across the sky.
Just before I was about to go back inside to bed, I saw something else that I've never seen the likes of before or since. In the not too distant night sky I saw a disc shaped object floating slowly towards me. It was very brightly colored (the lights alternated red, blue, green and orange in a circular pattern around the object).
I was transfixed by this sight as it inched towards our house. Over the next twenty minutes it floated closer and closer to the yard where I was standing. After about ten minutes of observation it was clear to me that this object was approaching and would soon be directly over head.
I would estimate the disc at about 500ft in diameter and flying about 500ft in the air. There were times when it appeared to come to a dead stop and simply hover, then begin floating slowly closer. The flickering alternating colorful lights were the most striking thing about it and I remember wondering what government technology could produce such an object.
At about the 20 minute mark in the sighting, the object was nearly directly over my head and I remember a strong fear coming over me. I was afraid of being spotted by this craft and went back inside the house. From various windows inside I continued to watch the object as it flew over the front of the house and I ended up in my bedroom watching it pass over the back yard.
The object never made a sound. There were a bunch of trees behind the house a few hundred yards away; once the object glided over those trees it appeared to descend further. I watched it hover just above those trees for another 10 minutes or so before it ascended and quickly flew ou! t of sig ht.
No airplane, weather balloon, or helicopter that I know of could account for that sighting. I will never forget what I saw that night and I have come to believe that others have seen the same thing as well.

We saw two stars slowly moving in the milkyway, stopping, starting, making right turns, shining a light. While fishing late one night under the milky way, I was looking at the stars. I have always looked at the colors.
dead, white, blue white and sparkly. One of the stars appeared to be slowly moving and we verified this . It was moving across the milky way, we figured from NW to SE.
based on where we were facing. After awhile it slowed and stopped. made a right turn and moved in that direction for a short while, then moved back to the track, continuing on till it reached straight up and then it stopped ,,waited and then a very long beam of light shone.
Then it slowly moved some more ,stopping occasionally and then another 'star' on the same path started moving toward the first one and it too had a light. The stars moved towards each other and then both turned on their lights, which touched, then they moved together where they did not move again for an hour . We stopped watching.
I had the strange feeling I had been told the display was for me because I had always believed. Some years later I awoke, wide awake to see a 'star' moving in the leafless branches of a tree in the same manner of the one in Mississippi. I again felt communicated with.
It again was a star, this time over Norfolk Virginia .
