Kelseyville, CA
A bright light hovered about 4,000 feet above Mt Konocti, and was engaged by at least two military fighter jets. The dog fight that ensued, lasted for about fifteen minutes. From my vantage point it appeared that at least one, may both fighter jets were shot down. Many people took pictures and had a better view of the craft. UFO's fly around this mountain all the time. I usually take it with a grain of salt, but this is the fist time I saw one shoot down one of our jets. Now it's personal. We have spoken via telephone with the witness, and encouraged him to contact the press, in search of other witnesses to the alleged event, in order to corroborate the report above. We would like to see more evidence, before we can conclude that a U. S. military jet fighter was, in fact, downed by a flying saucer. PD

I was inside my apt when my sister-in-law called me outside cause she seen lights I got my phone camera and recorded blue, red, and green light flashing, started off slow and then fast like lightning. Video clip indicates diffuse, flashing light, which cycles from blue, to red, and perhaps to green. We do not know whether the display is related to UFO activity. PD

Corona, CA
As we watched the craft we noticed it wasn't one big craft but a regular sized helicopter following a ball of light. It gave the illusion of one big craft. They were travelling south along the east side of the 15 freeway. The helicopter was following about (best guess here) 80-100 feet behind the ball of light. Then either the ball of light slowed down or the helicopter sped up and was about 30-40 feet behind the light. Then as the helicopter got closer the light just went out. The helicopter then just stopped and hover for awhile before circling the area before leaving to the south. I went to Youtube to see if any one else saw and maybe recorded the event. There was nothing, however there's a video from a few years back filmed in Anaheim (about 5-6 miles west of our sighting) that was very similar to what we witnessed. I'm actually shocked having this happen at 8:30pm over a busy California freeways and there are no other reports or even videos/photos.

Corona, CA
April 16th, 2015, right around 8:25PM. I was outside talking to my girlfriend on the phone while standing in my driveway scanning the clear, evening skies. I do this often as I very much consider the area near my home a UFO hotspot. I've had quite a few UFO sightings over the past 3.5 years and all were from this spot in my driveway. But since the last experience was October 19th, 2014, I was mentioning to the GF that it had, "been a while since I'd seen any unusual space activity. Not even a falling star". She replied, "Maybe that means something big is about to happen". I'm looking down my driveway facing west toward Corona, CA, at this time. As soon as she finishes that sentence, maybe 1.5 miles away from me, I see a helicopter flying north to south in persuit of a brightly lit, beachball sized, orb at about 90+ mph and 1000+ feet above the 15 freeway. I ran to the end of the driveway in time to see them both disappear behind the foothills headed toward San Diego. Probably 8 seconds total viewing time. I finished talking to the girlfriend and jumped on the computer to see if anyone else had seen what I had. I quickly found a group of 3 separate people sharing their experiences and I added mine as well. Like I said earlier, this is just one of a few sightings I've had over the past 3.5 years. Some have been very bizarre, to say the least. But as crazy and unbelievable as some of these reports may seem. From my experiences, this phenomena is true and it's as real as you and me. If you haven't yet seen a UFO but always wanted to, here's the secret… There is no secret. Day or night, get yourself in the habit of looking up everytime you go outside. Be patient, and keep your eyes to the skies. It will probably happen sooner than you think.

La Jolla, CA
Saw a bright orange glow appear to the east, just over the Miramar Airfield. It was completely stationary, then it began to flicker and slowly lose altitude. It hovered almost like a drone, but when it glowed orange almost as if it lost control and descended. Then it began to tumble as if it was on fire.

One was brighter, at first than the other. They were somewhat stationary at first. Each had three triangular shapes fingered off the eye shaped UFO. Intensly bright. They would move and rotate thier axis with triangles facing each object then away from each other. They would seperate at times but would primarily be parrellel with my line of sight. They witnessed prior to dusk. when the stars began coming out, these objects appeared much larger and much, much brighter.

Emeryville, CA
I debated on whether or not to mention this, but at this point it is a must. I will actually recount 2 occurrences within 72 hours. Both occurring in Emeryville CA. 1st, Friday April 10th at around 6pm. I saw a strange sphere resting toward the edge of a cloud. It was perfect in circumference and appeared to be whitish with a faint hue of blue around certain parts of its edges most likely due to reflection of the bright sun that was out. It was sitting perfectly stagnant. It caused me to lose focus on my driving and almost hit the driver in front of me at the stop sign at Peralta and Mandela Parkway on the Emeryville/West Oakland border. After slamming on my breaks I got out of my car. The man in the car I almost hit must've noticed me noticing it, and noticed it then himself. He also chose to get out of his car. I asked if he was seeing what I was seeing and replied simply "yes. Wow". This man was in his 30s and more than likely middle eastern but I did not confirm this with him. I then asked him "who in the world will believe us?" He smirked and simply replied "no one" and re-entered his car to drive off. When I began walking toward his car to ask his name, he began to leave. Having a broken cell phone I didn't have an operable camera to use nor did I think of it at the time because I was too busy being perplexed. Fast forward around 19 hours and that brings us to this report. I thought long and hard before reporting but this time was very uncomfortable. I was driving home from work in Berkeley, CA, and was driving down the 580 toward west Oakland when I glanced out of the driver's side window to the left looking at Emeryville as I was passing it up when a bright light, white in the center much like it was burning that gradually faded into a green "aura" surrounding it. A green "essence" if you will. Imagine the ozone around the Earth (without the holes), then turn that sky fil! led area between the Earth itself and the ozone layer a radian! t green and that's what this was. A layer of green around a brilliant white. What was bothersome to me is it ENTERED our atmosphere and shot toward the ground. It left a green trail in its wake like you'd imagine something burning toward us would. As soon as it reached near ground level it disappeared into the topography of the city. Like it would've landed in the upper Berkeley hills area. Which is not far. 10 miles. 15 maybe. Normally I wouldn't take the time to report something like this. But that is 2 strange occurrences over the short time of Friday April 10 to Sunday April 12. And that's too frequent not to raise concerns. Believe it, don't believe it, doesn't matter. I'm sane, sober, rational and know what I have seen lately is not familiar and unsettling and I've now done my part by telling you. Something is going on, alien, government, I couldn't discern if I wanted to. Something is going on, I know that for certain.

Hayward, CA
Map coordinates of UFO location: N37 46.199’W12210.448 I have seen several UFOs over the past 20 years, but most of those (except one) were smaller lighted objects at a long distance away. Erratic flight patterns and high speeds always told me that these were UFO’s. But the sighting I am reporting in this report is a game-changer for me! It was the diameter of at least 100 yard across…and at a much closer range! I was driving my minivan across the San Mateo bridge heading east on the night of April 11, 2015. Time was 11:55 PM. The bridge traffic was completely deadlocked at a near standstill due to a highway construction crew of several trucks and men with jack hammers making repairs on the pavement of the number 2 and 3 lanes lanes. This construction zone stretched for a distance of several hundred yards from the approach to the bridge, and all the way up to the highest arch point of the bridge a mile later. The traffic was so dense, it took me about 40 minutes to drive the 1 mile distance to finally clear all the construction crews and bright work lights. I had one male passenger, seated on the bench seat behind me. He was from Ukraine and he did not speak English. We could not communicate with a single word. I had hired him that night to be a sound man and photographer for a murder mystery show that other actors and myself had performed at a San Francisco restaurant. One of my actresses is Russian and she made all the arrangements for me to hire him for our show. During this long wait on the bridge, this passenger had his head buried in his texting device talking to his wife during the whole time I was driving. As soon as the traffic bottle neck cleared at the highest point of the bridge arch, I hit the accelerator and quickly gained speed going straight downhill. At this point, we were out in the middle of San Francisco Bay and the weather was very clear with stars in the sky. We had another three miles to drive East before hitting land in Hayward. THE SIGHTING! I was traveling over 70 miles an hour for only about 10 seconds when the interior of my entire van was blasted with a blinding green light! It came directly from the ride side of my van, but the light was so intense, I couldn’t even see my dashboard or out the front windshield. In a split second, I cursed the construction work crew for using excessive lights that made driving unsafe. But in the split second I thought this, I hit the brakes and hoped no other cars were close behind me. Then, I looked out my window to find the source of the green light and I saw a GIGANTIC UFO saucer traveling parallel with me at the same exact speed and about 500 feet above the water. The entire size looked to be well over the length of a football field and the distance from me seemed like about a quarter mile away. The bottom of the saucer was the source of the bright green glowing light, and it quickly twisted to a more upright position where the green underside of the saucer was completely visible and tilted towards me. But, the tilt angle was enough to cover the top side of the UFO and I could not see what the top half looked like. UFO DESIGN: To instantly memorize all the details of this UFO, I used a highly trained technique I have developed over the years. I call it the “SNAPSHOT” effect. My eyes and brain soak up as many details as possible in the shortest amount of time. I am a trained investigator and I am well known for having a better-than-average memory recall of live incidents and events. The main details I remembered are permanently etched into my memory just as clearly today as the moment I first saw them: 1. The saucer’s perimeter was lit up with two concentric circle rings of light that were the source of the bright fluorescent green light. The looked identical to a giant ring of neon light tubing attached to the outer rim of the bottom side of the space ship. A second ring was inside of the first ring with a small space between the two 2. Both rings had some sort of thin, dark separation strap that broke them into 5 segments each. (See attached photo shop picture of UFO reconstruction). 3. The whole bottom half of the UFO looked identical to a computer motherboard. It had a massive cluster of pipes and tubes and flat looking designs that intersected each other and overlapped each other across the whole surface like a road map. The color of this whole underside radiated a green color, but I believe this was merely reflected light emitted from the outer rings. It seemed like the whole motherboard underside was probably more of a white or light gray color. 4. Across this network of pipes and circuits were about 3 or 4 major square areas of a denser concentration of pipes. The re-created drawing I have made clearly shows these more defined areas. THE PORTAL: The UFO imitated my direction and speed as we both moved East for another 5 seconds. And then, the entire craft slipped into an invisible black slot in the night sky where it completely disappeared! The speed of the UFO had slowed down quite a bit for this last maneuver. It was almost as if it was a car pulling carefully into a garage. This space craft did not dissolve gradually, nor did sip away into the outer space at a high speed. It simply glided smoothly behind the equivalent of a giant black door with a vertical hard edge. For all the thousands of UFO’s that witnesses have seen over the years, I realized that witnessing the ACTUAL PORTAL action of the crafts disappearance into another dimension was probably a rare sight, indeed! I quickly looked into my rear view mirror and noticed that ALL THE CARS on the bridge behind me had either stopped completely, or were traveling extremely slow since seeing the whole night sky lit up with the green UFO. I checked my speedometer and I had been cruising at 40 miles per hour during the sighting. I was in the middle lane of 3 lanes, and I breathed a sigh of relief that I had not been rear-ended by another vehicle. MY PASSENGER MISSED THE ENTIRE SIGHTING: The second after the sky turned black and the UFO left, I yelled out over my shoulder to the passenger in the back seat: “HOLY SH_T! Look at this!” But he couldn't figure out what I was saying because of our language barrier. The best I could do was point my forefinger up in the air and spun it around in one foot circles while making a high-pitched (cartoonish) flying saucer noise. I was trying to convey it was a UFO without words. He nodded his head excitedly, then went down to his language dictionary on his mobile device. He then found something and lifted up his tablet to show me what it was. He had found a merry-go-round amusement ride. I shook my head “NO” and realized I would have to wait until the next day to call his Russian friend who would have to give him my UFO report second hand. This Ukrainian gentlemen lost the sighting of a lifetime just by keeping his eyes buried on his stupid texting device the whole time. When I returned home about 25 minutes later, I called the California Highway Patrol and tried to make a report. The pretty much shined me on and thought I was coo-coo for Coco Puffs. The next day, I checked all the news reports on the internet and local media the next day. For a UFO of that it actually made me feel great that I had just witnessed a very REAL UFO, but with more detail than I have ever heard anyone describe before. I was excited, but scared at the same time. So, I have kept this a secret for the entire past year. About 3 months after this encounter, I entered a key word search on the internet for "green UFO San Francisco Bay April 11, 2015". I found a hit from another website that originates out of Florida. There was a report entered by another resident from Union City (near Hayward) who had seen a large green UFO on that same day, but early in the morning (05:20) as he drove to work. It was located above the SF Bay, EXACTLY WHERE I SAW IT late th

Fort Bragg, CA
Fort Bragg, California. 4/11/2015 8:45 PM Cloudless, very dark with crystal clear clarity…… I glanced outside my door about 8:45 PM and saw two craft in the north and northeast sky with unusual lights. They each appeared to have two white and two red lights, all of which were steady, not pulsing. The craft were moving about fairly quickly, to and fro, left and right, up and down, getting quite close to each other at one point. There was no noise, as from a helicopter. I estimate the altitude varied from a maximum of 500 feet to a minimum of 100 feet when they dropped below the tree line, possible lower as I could no longer see them. They did not disappear behind the trees because they were receding, but rather because they were dropping. I estimate their distance at no more than ¾ mile. I opened my car trunk and got out my binoculars but couldn’t see a craft body, just the lights. The lights maintained the same perspective regardless of the direction of movement of the craft. On one the white lights remained orientated to the west and the red to the east, while the other seemed to do the same, with the direction orientated more north-south when that craft was to the east. I finally grabbed my camera, a Canon Powershot, and managed to get a little bit of footage of one of them. I wish it had a better zoom lens. I thought I got the other one, and have a video clip, but I can’t see anything in that clip.

Oxnard, CA
At about 6pm, I observed a small white circle directly east of me. It was floating in the sky traveling west. Best way I could describe it as being a flashing white dot. Followed by another SouthEast also heading west. I observed a total of 7 all seperately, including one directly above me. Then at 1906hrs, I noticed 4 of these white light dots in a V shape formation with one side having the extra white light . If anyone lives in the area. I've had several sighting this month and I feel that best times to view these white orbs are morning south southwest and before sunset facing east. Especially on days with spuratic white clouds. My mother is my only witness. When I saw the 4 lights, she could only see 2. I have recorded 21 videos in the past 3 weeks of these White disc flashing light but only 1 could be considered worthy. Hopefully someone in the area has good camera as my pictures and videos have been unfruitful.

I sit into my car to start it up to warm it up for my way to work. As I am sitting there. I glance up to see the sky because of reports on the news that we might have rain that evening. Sky is crystal clear, not a cloud in the sky. 4:42 all of sudden I see what seems to be a shooting star. O big deal but then I notice a second object directly below it traveling at the same speed and in sync, when all of a sudden they both make a sharp turn and speed out and fade out into the distance.

My grandma had talked about a strange humming noise coming from the sky and when she walked outside, she was startled to see a very bright light in the sky unlike any other star because of its high intensity. She called my family tonight to tell us that the light was back and we were surprised to see a very bright blinking "star," followed by a vey loud machine like noise coming from that direction.

Seated at an Easter brunch early afternoon on a cloudless, sunny, mildly warm day. I noticed circular craft floating in sky, stationary but wobbly. -in my eye line which was on the 25 floor and about three city blocks away. Truly looked like a badly made stage prop from a "b" film from the fifties! I went to window preparing my camera phone. As I watched in awe it just stayed in one place, half the time wobble, the other half motionless (didn't appear to spin but was a saucer shape, (from the side, oval)--I could just make out that it was a mottled gray. Not smooth. As I began to snap pic it disappeared--literally blinked out becoming invisible (with no accompanying light). I sensed that it surely must still be there and thought to take a picture of area of sky where it was, focusing carefully on building it was next (same distance. I had a strong intuition it was there but just not visible. Sure enough an object appears in pic. A faint ring with three orbs on ring- two close together and another a bit further along the ring, both on one half of the ring. In order to see the object (which was the same size in picture as object I saw with my dad eyes.) I made sure to check out all light figures in room to insure it was not a reflection. My camera did not have a flash. I still have picture.

We saw three orange/red circular objects flying across the sky from west to east. They flew in a chevron formation; each faded out in turn -- the one furthest north fading first. Curiously after they faded away, one seemed to reappear back towards the west. They were clearly visible. When the first faded it seemed to fly away from its low trajectory further into space, but I am not certain this was the case. Certainly while they were visible they were easily viewed and appeared to track across the sky at a leisurely pace.

Malibu, CA
I was watching a plane, to see if the plane was at an altitude above the clouds. It was higher and as it passed over the clouds I saw a silver tube with a fuzzy white dot in front of it that appeared in the cloud to the right, then it traveled through clean/clear air (between clouds) and crossed under the plane and into the cloud on the left where it disappeared. The plane continued on and I grabbed a camera for a photo reference. Approximatley 60 seconds later. The ‘Tube’ was metallic blue/gray and almost blurry, the white fuzzy dot in front of it kept a distance that remained the same distance throughout the sighting. I say fuzzy white dot because it did not strike me as a light. Very Odd and I can’t stop wondering what it was.

Salinas, CA
I don't know how to compose this in an organized way as the sighting of these objects had me over the edge. The night of the eclipse wasn't the first time I had witnessed these ufos, but it's one of the most memorable. The sky was extra dark so my boyfriend and I had a better view of the sky, as it was mostly clear and the stars were extra bright. We were looking at the eclipse first and began to notice strange lights flashing all around the moon. These lights were like plasma green, blue, magenta, and red, and purple. They zoomed across the sky in a spontaneous way. The moon seemed to have some strange filter over it as if these objects were trying to do something with the moon. Around the moon it looked like there was sparkling objects moving around. Like glitter or something. It's so hard to describe because it's nothing I've ever seen before. There were clouds and these objects would hide in them. Whenever they would exit the cloud the cloud would get a visible hole where they were penetrated and would move in that one spot where the ufo had passed through. It wasn't the way normal clouds move. It looked like there was also stars but they weren't stars. They had lights to them and would shoot out similar objects from them. The lights were blue, purple, green and red. It also looked like there was something very very black. Like a black hole or portal. There was at one point a green portal and in that area the sky became distorted as if sucking in whatever was in that area. There were also purple portals and blue portals. It was so amazing and I wasn't sure if ot as my eyes messing with me but my boyfriend saw the same. These objects were aware that I had acknowledged they were there. I had a sense of being looked at from a distance and I knew it was them. They began to shoot out balls of plasma colored purple or magenta. They shot it right a my direction. There were objects in different shapes like pyramids that were spinning and they were cloaked. Like transparent but I could see the shape. They would distort the sky in the area they were passing through causing ripples in the sky as of the sky were water. There was also disk shaped ones. More than 10 just zooming across the sky. At one point I was staring at one specific cloud where a portal had opened up. There was a black object that was incredibly huge. It had a shape of a statue. Like the Statue of Liberty with spikes and very tall. It looked like that but at the same time seemed to be morphing into something else. Then the cloud covered it and I saw the portal get smaller and smaller. A lot of these objects were cloaked. There is a lot more to this and the weeks following it had a lot of the same events mostly consisting of the cloaked disk shaped with the clouds. These clouds had lights in them and didn't look like normal clouds. They would change shapes quickly and looked like they were writing out something in the sky in a strange way. It also had weird figures and faces. Like if they were trying to get me to understand something. At that point I panicked and went inside. I know this sounds unbelievable but it is true. If I recall anymore I will report back. I would also like to add that on the weeks following this there were a lot of airplanes or helicopters in the sky as if they were searching for something. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
