Watched a bright green glowing sphere travel across a field. At approx. 11:45 PM, as I approached a T on a gravel road and made the turn, I saw a bright green glowing sphere traveling across the field.
It was not going very fast, maybe 15-20 mph and it was about 10-15 feet off the ground. It followed the contour of the land and I was driving parallel to it at about 75 feet away. The sphere was about 1 ½ to 2 feet in diameter and very bright neon green.
My first thought was that it was some type of fireworks, but it made no sound and did not seem to be affected by gravity as it followed the land contour, so it was not fireworks. I lost sight of it when the hill at the edge of the road blocked my view. I stopped my car and turned off my lights and watched for about 10 minutes, but saw nothing else.
I also returned the next night at 11:30 and watched the field for a half hour, but saw nothing.

White trailess orb fell straight down in the north eastern sky from a vantage point between Omaha and Lincoln, Ne At approximately 21:40, a bright white orb shaped object fell in the north east sky towards Omaha, NE. This object had no tail as if it wasn't burning up in the atmosphere. It was larger than any shooting star I have witnessed before.
It appeared and fell from about 60 degrees up from the horizon, straight down to about 40 degrees and just disappeared. No sound was heard.

LARGE DARK DISK SHAPED OBJECT WITH VERY BRIGHT LIGHT SEEN IN DAYLIGHT-HAVE VIDEO PROOF About 12:45 pm my husband yelled for me to come outside, what I saw was shocking and disturbing a very large, dark colored disk shaped object was hovering in the sky just south of my home. The object seemed to move in all directions(swoop from side to side and upside down) at times it looked as if it were floating then it would very quickly and smoothly fly further south and then come back. At one point the object seemed to be on it's side with the top facing us while in that position a very bright white light came from the object.
After a couple minutes the object slowly moved further up and further south, my husband ran in to get the camcorder and shot approx 15-20 seconds of footage before the object was blocked by trees and no longer in view. We have shown the footage to several people all were shocked and believe what they saw was a UFO.

Film is seen by who knows how many hundreds of people and is considered to be authentic & has been determined that it is not a Hoax. It needs to be noted that the film shows exactly as what is described. I have seen the film also, many others have too.
It is not mentioned but needs to be - from what I heard and understand, this film was sent into an agency (unknown) for authentication & analysis. I beleave the couple got the tape (or a copy of) back in February or March of 2003. The determination was that the film & the object in the film were not staged and is not a hoax but in fact is (1) one of best footage's taken of an actual UFO.
It was also mentioned that this footage is being considerd to be possibly the best footage ever filmed of an authentic Unidentified Aircraft hoovering. How am I able to back this report??? Because the film was on all 4 Local News Channels for the evening news. I understand that it actually made National & had made International News.
It was not shown on TV until the tape got returned, I will try to find a copy of the News Clip Arhive - otherwise websites for 2 of the sites are WOWT.com & Omahachannel.com ((ADDENDUM FROM ORIGINAL WITNESS)) CORRECT LINK Here is the link to the Ashland Nebraska UFO http://www.
ufocasebook.com/ashlandnebraska.html ((NUFORC Note: We have viewed the footage on several occasions, and although the object is interesting, I do not believe that we can conclude yet that it is a genuine UFO.
It might be a balloon, being carried by the prevailing wind, but that is only a guess. PD)).

I remember this date and time distinctively , as it wax tax day , my first year in buisness . A friend and myself decided to go catfishing at the "salt creeek" in Ashland NE. I was a very beautiful night with clear skies .
We hung out late in hopes of catchin a big one . Around 3:30am we decided to take off , fishing was slow that night . We were heading back toward omaha on highway 6 .
Just after we had crossed the bridge by the creek , my buddy riding shotgun notices something very strange and tells me to look up . To my surprise , I notice 4 flare like objects slowly descending . One was well above the others , all of wich were no further than 1000 yards away .
Its seems to me the bigger one may have been triangle shaped . The other 3 that at first glance looked like flares descending slowly as if they were attatched to parachutes . Then all of the sudden , the 3 smaller object starting movinging around in different directions .
2 of them seemed to travel off to the west , and one seem to come straight down . Behind the trees ,the entire area in the field was lit up like a football stadium at night . At this point , I could hardly keep the car on the road .
We turned back and decided to further investigate . I found a country road , that was closest in the direction of the crafs . we were driving up this dirt road , west toward farm area .
Between us and the creek , around 3-500 yards away , we could see this glowing plasma ball like object , kinda bluish white , and green at times , howevering in the tops of a tree .Almost blinding to look at . I remeber there was also another witnes that was driving a 84 chevy s-10 pickup coming towards us .
we were both coming at each other maybe 5 miles per hour . And it was obvious , this guy was withouth a doubt looking at the same thing . After this guy passed us , i figured what the hell , ya only live once , we pulled off road into the feild and got out of the car .
Mind blown on what we were seeing we started walkin toward it .I do not remember any noise. Within a couple minutes of getting closer , it started getting super foggy .
Visibility began to get poor . The illumination of the of object grew dimmer and dimmer . all the sudden it was gone , vanised .
We waited for the fog to clear and could not find even a trace of evidence , i wished to god I would have had a camera. we still discuss it from time to time , and the last couple of years I've been keeping my eyes on these reports to see if anything else was reported around that date , or in that same exact area . I guess im posting in hopes of finding more info on what we saw .
The funny thing is , after talking about it all these years , we realized that when it was over , we were driving home at sunrise . Not sure if we lost time or not , it is possible . We are going to conduct further investigation this year with camera (digital , and completely mechanical ) .
I will post updates if we find anything . I will also try to get my bud to post as well , in case there is something he saw that i didnt . One thing is for damn sure , they were without a doubt aircraft of some sort , but definitely not of this world .
