Red light that flew almost horizonally then suddenly "fell" from the sky. I don't know if this qualifies or not, I started second guessing myself after I saw it, but I thought I would send it in. Maybe you have heard this before!! I was on my way to work(I'm a police officer), traveling on a major freeway(I-30 just west of Ft Worth, TX), when I spotted this red light.
It was almost like a helicopter or plane light, but it never "blinked". It was a solid red light for about 2 or 3 minutes. It was flying at an angle as if it was "taking off".
I feel it was flying too slow to be an airplane. It continued flying at this angle for a minute or two, slowly, then all of the sudden it took a dive!! The solid red light just fell from the sky. I kept watching to see if it had been a plane crash or something, but nothing ever happened.
I never heard of anything on the news, and have never seen anything like this again. I should also tell you that this was just south of an Air Force Base. This is why I was second guessing myself.
I guess it could have been a "Top Secret" aircraft the military is developing, but I don't know??? ((NUFORC Note: Date of event is approximate. PD)).

An object made up of 5 white lights in a V shape moved across the sky at a steady pace. I was observing the stars when I noticed 5 lights, about the same magnitude as the brightest stars, moving across the sky headed directly South. They never varied their formation or speed and traversed half the sky within about 30 seconds.
There were no unusual changes in direction or, if seperate crafts, break in formation. There were no red/green flashing lights one expects from an airplane. The white lights could not have been landing lights since the object was moving away from me.
The object was moving at probably 2 or 3 times the speed of the typical sattelite. Also, moving directly South is an unlikely path for a sattelite, much less a formation of 5. Also, it was not moving in the direction of the V, it appeared to be moving sideways.
In other words, the direction of travel was toward one arm of the V. There was no sound and within half-a-minute it had disappeared in the horizon. ((NUFORC Note: The witness does not specifically state whether the sighting was during the daytime or night, although we presume it was a nighttime sighting.
We have amended the time above to reflect that fact. PD)).

weird plane I am not saying that i saw an alien ship, but i am saying that i did see something very clear in the sky that i certianly couldnt identify. Myself and my younger brother were driving to the local movie rental store, we live in a pretty rural area so there werent that many other cars on the road. i was driving ast a local highschool and on the opposite side of the school there is a field.
a very bright white light caught my eye, and i wasnt sure what it was i had never seen a light there before. i thought that maybe there was a stadium light in the field, because thats how bright it was. then it began t move, so naturally i figured it was a plane.
then my younger brother said , wow thats a weird looking plane. i turned and looked agian and there were more than grren and red lights, like on a plane, and te closer i looked at it , the les it was shaped like a plane, but more cigar shaped, and there was a very brightwhite light and a purple glow like i had never seen before. so naturaly i picked up my cell phone to call my mom to tell her what we had just seen, but my cell hone had no service.
i drive on that road every day, i have never had recepetion problems on that road before. and thats my story.
