Rectangle over San Bernardino, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Recently, I saw a UFO ship on my way home from work May 11, 2015 in the afternoon around 5PM, and it was full daylight out. I was leaving Redlands in my truck while traveling West on the 10 Freeway, when I saw it out of my passenger window for several miles, out to the North, just above the City of San Bernardino's border with Highland California. I saw it as I looked north out of my passenger window and out of the back window of my truck, until I drove too far West on the 10 Freeway to be able to see it anymore. I had trouble staying in my lane because I was amazed at what I was seeing. Specifically, I saw it from the side as I looked North towards the backdrop of the San Bernardino Mountains. There was no smog or haze interrupting my view. I had a very clear view of the ship under the much higher clouds for at least five minutes. It was stationary in the sky, and it did not move an inch the whole time that I watched it. It was not a balloon. It just hovered there, about 3/4 as high as the top of the San Bernardino Mountains. I saw no ropes or chains under it to hold it in place. I have no idea how something that big can hover still in the sky like that. Moreover, it was rectangular in shape. (See attached drawing.) I saw no lights on it. It had no wings or propellor, and it was not emitting steam or smoke. It was much longer than it was high. I estimate it was 180 feet long and 30 feet high or more. My view was limited to the side, so I could not judge depth of the ship. The accompanying image that I have included shows the shape of the aircraft. Regardless of the high cloud cover, I am sure that our government saw this enormous ship on radar. I thought that it was something from the military because it looked like the same type of material that an airplane can be made from. It was silver/metallic with black lines that defined square separate sections of the ship, which made it look like it was manufactured. Most importantly, I thought that it would have been on the television news later that night, but nothing has been shown. The very next time that I drove to work on the 10 Freeway, it was gone from that area of the sky. I have ran a search on the Internet, and two people in Highland have reported to have seen a UFO in the same area later that evening at the webpage: http://www.nuforc.org/webreports/118/S118948.html You would think that with that many people living in San Bernardino, Highland, and surrounding cities that someone would have noticed it because it was daylight. I would like to find out if there are other people that have reported it. Best regards America!

What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

I was traveling west on Highland Ave to pick up our dog’s arthritis medication and saw coming out of the cloudy sky a dark gray aircraft that resembled a large bus due to its rectangular shape and it was traveling north to south. I thought is this a blimp ? Realizing that I have never seen a rectangular blimp in my life. This flying object was no aircraft I was familiar with. It seemed to be flying faster than a blimp yet slower than a plane. I can’t say how far the objects distance was from me but it wasn’t very high in the sky. I pulled into the veterinarians office parking lot in hopes of capturing a video or picture but the object was now hidden behind large Perris Hill Park Trees. I have been searching google to see if any one else witnessed this UFO here in San Bernardino California but there is no reports so far. I know I wasn’t the only person to see this UFO. I anticipate some sort of reports to confirm that there was definitely a strange flying object in our skies!!

I was driving home from work(security officer at an airport) around 8am when I saw a single silver looking object out of my right window, it wasn't really moving at all, more like hovering in the sky and when I rolled down my window to see if I could hear the sound a helicopter makes(originally thought it was a helicopter)I heard no sounds at all besides cars on the freeway, i kept watching it for about 30 to 40 seconds and then it just disappeared. About 6 to 8 months ago I saw almost the same silver object in apple valley CA, but it was closer and looked more the shape of a blimpie but it was also silver in color, barely moved, made no sound and disappeared within 60 seconds. On both occasions I was driving and it was a clear and sunny day with no clouds. I've never seen anything else like it before. There was no other aircraft in the area that I could see or hear other than this object.

I live in North San Bernardino, witnessed two large, orange lights in the sky, to the east. the were pretty high and at first I thought that they may be helicopters. they were moving from southeast to north west. One stopped moving, went from a orange glowing orb to a red star, went transparent and dropped like a rock strait down and out of sight. the other continued for a few seconds and did the same.
