Random balls of amber colored glowing light that seemed to softly float followed by more glowing balls of light that disappeared sudden On March 26, 2022 I was leaving my sister's house at around 10:35 PM when I noticed 4-5 glowing balls of light randomly floating above the highway. They were a soft amber color, and at first I assumed they were planets or something like that. But the thing that made me pick up my phone to record it was the formation of the first set of lights and the way they just seemed to sit in the sky so effortlessly.
It's hard to describe why they struck me as possibly being something other than something that could be explained, but i just got this strange feeling from them. Years ago, I had another experience w a strange sighting. My ex husband and I noticed a strange bright white (I can't remember if it blinked red or green, but i think it def blinked different colors) but it appeared out of nowhere, hovered extremely low for it to be a plane, and stayed in one place.
He and I looked at each other in disbelief of what we were seeing, and in just the time of a glance- it was no where to be seen. We both knew what we saw wasn't anything that could be explained. My uncle also claimed to see a similar light that suddenly disappeared at the end of the same street.
Of course everyone made light of the matter, so we dropped it and never talked about it again. So naturally, this time I was going to get what I was seeing on camera so I could prove what i was saying. And another strange thing is I got that same weird feeling I had gotten years earlier.
So I start to record it and realize it would be difficult to show what I was seeing from the side of the road I was on. So I go to turn around immediately and before I could get turned- they were gone! There was 1 that was faint but it was gone shortly thereafter. I was shaking and done so for i know an hour after I got home.
I posted the videos in hopes of someone giving me an explanation so i could calm down, but I looked up every suggestion mentioned and none of them looked like what I saw. I didn't even realize i had gotten a video of the moment multiple other balls of light lit up out of no where and disappeared just as suddenly!!.

Glowing red sphere slowly descending in the sky As I was driving south on 16th Ave., I spotted a slowly falling red glowing sphere to my left. A trail of smoke was following the sphere.
I watched as the sphere descended and then landed somewhere in a ditch on the side of the road. When it made contact with the land in the ditch, lots of smoke was all around it. Whatever it was, it was small enough that I could not see it once it went into the ditch.
I did not drive back to inspect it further.

Craft sighted moving at high speeds above the tree line I was approximately 10 miles south of Laurel Mississippi heading southbound towards Hattiesburg, to go home from work at 6:10 pm. To the East I noticed about 20-50 feet above a tree line, perhaps 2-5 miles away there was a white disc travelling at a high speed across the treeline (tall elder pines about 90-140 feet high approximately). It took approximately 1.
5 seconds for the disc to travel across the span of my driver side window where I ceased to be able to follow it. The most frightening aspect is about 20 seconds before the sighting I started to get images and thoughts of extra terrestrials in my head and cycling through thoughts about 'what is out there' as I often research at home. I turned my music down to clear my head and something inspired me to look East.
When I did it was within 2 seconds that the craft appeared. I often research extra terrestrial beings and craft in my free time as well as falsified research on moon landings and NASA space programs but have never witnessed anything myself. I have never had any ESP or signs of the like but this particular moment has definitely left me puzzled.
It is almost as if I knew the craft was there before I looked.

A red glowing object moving in and out of clouds that had a red yellow and green color when not in the direct path of the sun I saw a red glowing object in the western sky at about 17:00 hours on 8/30/2012 It appered to reflect sunlight from it. It moved slowly across the sky starting and stopping , moving in and out of the clouds> I had to move from one side of my house to the other to get pictures of it. I could not tell the shape of it because of the red reflection from it.
I wondered how it was reflecting with the sun in front of my and not coming from my back . At one point it moved very fast to the left and was out of the sunlight above a tree. I didnt see the red glow this time.
Then it moved back into the sunlight path and had a large red haze around it . It moved into the clouds , then out the other side of them still a red glow around it. The last picture i took it went slowly up out of a cloud and then straight up and dissapeared i have no idea what is was but i have never seen anything like it.

Lights captured on wild game camera. These pictures were taken with a digital wild game motion camera. This object was captured four seperate times.
Two on 10/19/08 at 11:09pm and at 11:12pm. The other two pictures were captured on 10/26/08 in a different part of the woods. In these pictures it looks like a beam of light but if you look closely it is the object in motion and there was no wild game in these pictures so these objects in motion triggered the camera to take the picures.
((NUFORC Note: Critter cam photos show deer in frame. Possible reflection from a nearby insect, or some other small object. Probably not a genuine UFO.
PD)).

Undulating object seen over Laurel Mississippi on 3/28/04 at 2:30pm At 2:30 today my wife and I were outside allowing our puppy some time to play and do her business. We were sitting in lawn chairs when I looked up and saw a dark brownish-red object directly overhead. The object looked like a tube with each end rounded like a ball.
It was undulating and twisting around slowly. After I determined it wasn't a bird or any other known object I ran into the house to get my camcorder. My wife, who wears glasses was unable to see the object mostly because she couldn't find it in the sky.
It was moving in and out of the clouds. After I finally found my camcorder case inside I brought it outside and took out the camera, attached the battery and inserted a tape. All of which took some moments.
By this time the object had moved off and was further away. When I first saw the object it was directly overhead and moving in a north - northeast direction. Now that I had the camera I moved across the yard to a spot where I could shoot through the trees at where I figured it would be by now.
In a moment I found it and shot the attached video. The object was still moving to the north - northeast while clouds were moving slowly to the north. Today was a partly sunny day with rainclouds moving into the area from the south.
My video camera has an onboard automatic focus and it kept trying to focus on infinity during the shoot, thus the image is sometimes out of focus. At one point I pointed the camera down to the top of some trees to force it to focus. As the object moves thru the trees it appears to remain focused.
It then dissappeared into the cloud bank. My Hi-8mm camera has a 22x zoom which I had it zoomed full. The video is shakey because of this extreme zoom.
I have a higher resolution version of this file as well as the 8mm tape.

bright object moving slowly across sky .Too bright to be airplane and no red or green wing lights I was going west on hwy84 south of Lauel,Ms. I saw a very bright light to my left at 23:13on 10-26-99.
It looked like it was not movingwhen i frist saw it. then i notice that it was moving .thought that it was not a airplane because it was too big .
I stopped and got out to get a better view. I held my left thumb up to see if it covered the object. It was bigger than it so i extended my arm and held up two fingers, then three and it was bigger than them.
So i watched it a couple seconds.It was moving at a steady but slow speed towards Laurel, coming out of the south, I could not see if it had solid form because it was too far from me .Ichecked my speedometer so i could see how far i was from Laurel.
,Ms. when i got there it showed i was 5miles when i stopped. the sky was clear and alot of stars could be seen.
It was oval shaped and no sound.
