The report, as filed
I had slept with the drapes pulled back a few feet with window open last night. When my husband left for work at about 4:45 am, I lay back in bed and looked out window, admiring how pretty the silhouette of mountain looked. I noticed a light bobbing slowly. Going to the left. Then behind my curtains. I thought that did not seem like a helicopter or plane. I got up and watched it then start to bob up slowing in a straight line. It had lights that rotated in a circler motion and disapeared and then would restart cycle. It fired off laser dotted lights in green. Flickering. Not solid lined. Almost flashing. Then I looked over to right to see if there were possibly more and there was another identical lights. It bobbed in same place. Every once it would light up from behind and it seemed to be invisible, but it matched the sky. It was huge. I looked back over to first one I saw again and I noticed it was huge also. Both bottoms were facing me. Tilting up but jus! t bobbing slightly. I watched for about 45 minutes. They never disapeared. I decided to try to go back to sleep because I have a toddler and new he'd be up soon. My mind is still trying to take it in. I told my eight year old this mourning. I don't think I'll tell my husband. He would probably not believe it. My mind still can't believe it, but it was very real. Really amazing! I looked out about 9:30 this mourning. Very clear skies. Very sunny. I definitely will be going to look out tonight.

From our backyard, we looked up and saw what looked like a red comet entering the atmosphere. It had a long red tail of what looked like debris or smoke. We ran inside to grab a camera. When we returned, the comet turned bright white, emitting light horizontally from it. Then, it changed direction and went south. The tail disappeared when it did that and you could only see a very small light that changed from red to white. SpaceX launch form Vandenburg [NUFORC annotation: Rocket - Certain]

I woke up in the middle of the night, and went downstairs with my dog. I have large windows and I had them opened, as I was watching the sky a Blue disk appeared instantly in the sky and floated momentarily, once I looked at it for a second, it flew into the sky faster than anything I have ever seen. It almost looked like a comet but it did not move like a shooting star. There is military craft that is trained near us, but this was almost your stereotypical flying saucer, it just did not stay at all, and moved as fast as the speed of light (299 792 458 meters / second, not metaphorically.). Today this morning there are Jet Streams in an X shape in the same sky line as well as some clouds, I'm not sure if its related but somewhat interesting.

Driving north on Haun road home and it is an unlit area (by the horse farm). I was driving and i saw a very fast moving orange/red triangle shaped object. I followed it from the driver side window to the front windshield and it flat out just disappeared. There were no clouds in the sky, which I confirmed with the weather center. Literally vanished. Never have I ever seen anything like this or have reported anything of same.

Every night I go into my garden with the dogs . This night was very odd for many reasons . Reason 1 It was just before 8.30 pm I had my watch on looked at time . What was strange all the Birds in the Surrounding area were making strange noises which I noticed straight away . I've never heard that before like that . So I look up from Left To Right See Areoplanes 2 infant crossing paths everything seemed normal in the Sky above but then way lower to my Left and I do mean way lower A Big Grey Spere light Grey in Color not moving just There the birds were still making this Strange sound like panic it sounded like . About 15 Seconds this Light Grey Sphere shots off In A Perfect Straight line not up or Down Just a Perfect Straight Line . I'll be very honest with you I have never seen something move as fast ever like that before . I'm still in shock . As soon as it left the birds stop making that panic noise . This Sphere Light Grey to me was trying to hide and not to been seen that was my 1st feeling about it I was kinda like a camouflage. No sound was Big and super fast . From Left Low Level Not Moving To Moving Straight Fast to the Right all lasted about 24 Seconds .

I took the pic with my iPhone and the only thing I did was change it to black and white no other edits were done, Im'sure you will be able to tell this. Once I noticed the object that appears to be coming out of the clouds, I am convinced that it is a craft of some sort. I hope you can use this photo or disprove it. If you look in the "Red" circle you will see what I saw.
