A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

Two nights in a row last night 1-17-15 & tonight 1-18-15 we witnessed at home in our backyard a silent & very bright pulsating light orb sail slow & low across the sky just above our tree tops traveling from the south eastern sky going north. We see these light orbs occasionally at dusk & sometimes a few hours after dusk. We have been researching these orbs since 2006 which is when I first made my report here. At one point we was seeing these orbs so often that it seemed pointless to report every single time.Anyone who reports to Mufon, well good luck! They will tell you that satellites & the ISS passes over ya at a few hundred to 1000 ft from the ground or that it was a`plane. I would advise to not report anything to mufon because it's a waste of time. I am making a report tonight in case anyone in nortwest Alabama has or is seeing these to know that you are not alone.I don't have any photos from the past 2 nights but I do have 1 from Dec 9, 2014, I'll share in email. I have photographed & filmed these light orbs in the past & they are on youtube. It's time for answers, more people are seeing these across the states, but no one can make an official announcement? My advice, do your own research & make those photos & videos & load them up on youtube. Remember, watch low in the sky from the west & south to north at dusk & when the stars start coming out.

I was walking my dogs late and was on the top of a hill in my neighborhood when all of a sudden a bright,huge, and round object dropped down very fast. I was very startled and my instant thought was something is crashing. There was no noise at all. It went out of my view within seconds because of the wooded area in my subdivision. I’ve seen drones before and this was definitely no drone and no fallen star. The best way I can describe it would be like a full moon very close to earth falling straight down.

As we were walking our dog a very large balloon like object floated rapidly across the sky. The inside of the object was lit up with a white light inside of it. The light burned solid. It floated across the Tenn river as we watched it .

At around 1205 AM me and at least two other noticed a light that seemed to fade and then grow brighter over a span of a few minutes. The parking lot lights were on so we couldn't see really any other lights such as stars. The would fade in size and brightness to a small point of light to at its brightest point like of very bright flashlight. It lasted for a few minutes and then faded out and wasn't seen again that night [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Probable]
