With my naked eye appeared to be a white bright (LED type). However, my camera showed a blue purple and red color to it while I filmed it.

I was watching T.V. and happened to notice out the window a flourecent blue ball of light falling in the horizon and had a little zig zag to it as it fell. It was falling rapidly so it only lasted a few seconds until it dissapeard from veiw behind across the street house. It was not a shooting star it was something I have never seen before and for it to be as evident as it was from me sitting about 10 feet from the window and an orange street light in the same window is astonishing as bright as it showed up.

Bakersfield, CA
Let me start this by saying that I have had a lifelong interest in the ufo subject. I am 29 years old and was born and raised in Bakersfield, CA. Despite this, I have never seen anything that I could not explain in the sky. I believe that changed on Sunday, November 15, 2015. I was driving home on Rancheria rd. which lies about 10-15 miles east of Bakersfield. Rancheria runs north and south and will take you from east Bakersfield all the way up to the Alta Sierra area. This particular day was a very rare and stormy day for this area. There was rain, snow and tiny hail coming down all day. I am a 4x4 enthusiast and was going up a trail called "Freeway Ridge" with a small group of friends. This trail starts at hwy. 178 and ends at Evans flat campground and traverses through the southern sierras. After a long and muddy day of 4 wheeling we finally reached the end of the trail. Rancheria road is the quickest way back to Bakersfield. Rancheria is winding road that is very dangerous, especially when wet. We were going south at an average of about 15 mph. It is 25 miles back to Bakersfield as the crow flies but it takes at least an hour to drive on any given day. Visibility was very low because of rain, fog, and mud covered vehicles. This day it took us about 1.5 hrs to travel this 25 mile road. Now on to my sighting. About 15 miles south of Evan's Flat campground, I see a light coming down towards the mountain. It looked like a small plane at first and was approx. 4-500 yards to my left. I am a golfer, so I feel like I am a good judge of yardage. I almost panicked at first because it looked like this small plane was going to crash into the mountain to my left. It was very low to the tree line. As I focused in on this light (difficult with mud covered windows/windshield) I could see that it was not a plane of any kind. I got a clear look at it for about 3-4 seconds. It was 2 bright neon white round balls with a thin neon white line connecting them. It did not produce any halo of light behind it. It was traveling on a horizontal plane and coming down diagonally towards the ground. Its flight is why I originally thought a plane was going to crash. After the 3-4 seconds, I could see it fly behind some trees, and then it disappeared. Let me also mention that this was 15 min. after sunset with complete cloud cover and rain. It was basically dark outside. While this whole experience was seemingly mundane it was also very spectacular to me. I couldn't begin to come up with a logical explanation of what this thing could have been. It gave me the chills and made the hair on my body stand on end. I apologize for the wordy post but I wanted to be as thorough as possible. Strange things are definitely out there. Thank you!

On November 15, 2015, at approximately 13:00 hours, I observed what appeared to be a point of fairly bright light in the southern sky. This point of light was several degrees south of zenith, and slightly east. Weather conditions at the time were clear, sunny, and fairly warm. The light was similar in brightness to Saturn. I observed the light with the naked eye for approximately three minutes. The light did not move, flicker, dim, or increase in brightness. I went indoors and obtained a pair of binoculars. Upon returning outside, I used my binoculars to look at the object. It resolved in the field of view of my binoculars as a disc shaped object. The object was not moving, nor were there any lights or other activity around the object. It appeared to be chrome or light grey in color and at a fairly high altitude. The material was very reflective. I observed the object for about five minutes. Unable to determine what the object was, I then went back indoors and brought out my Orion 4.5’ Equatorial Reflector Telescope with a 25mm optic. I found the object in my telescope and was able to notice greater detail about the object. It was circular, and appeared to have thick, ribbed sides, similar to a Jello mold in appearance. In the center of the object was a small nodule, also circular, that could best be described as the top of a bell. There did not appear to be any tethering equipment attached to this object, nor any lights, windows, doors, or instrumentation attached, nor any motion from the object. It remained stationary the entire time I observed it, which was about twenty-five minutes. The object also appeared to be very stable and did not appear to be moving as a result of any winds that may be at the altitude the object was at. After resuming my outdoor activities, I came back to look for the object just before 15:00 hours. The object was gone. I could not locate it anywhere else in the sky using my naked eye or my binoculars. I searched online for anything similar and located an object with uncanny resemblance spotted in New Zealand in 2014. The link to the object for comparison is: http://tinyurl.com/pk9lpun

Massapequa, NY
The sky is extremely clear out tonight. At first I thought it was an airplane until another appeared and they stood near each other and the flew off. They had red and white flashing lights. Then another 2 appeared over Burns Park and they crossed each other in an X shape and slowly flew in the sky back and then forth. I know that there isn't an airport near Burns Park in Massapequa and the 2 that crossed look like they came from that area.

I stepped out on the front porch which faces south, and to my left (east) I saw what looked like an almost-full moon hovering above the tree line a distance away. It suddenly just disappeared. I thought it was the moon and was covered by clouds, but it was a crystal clear starry night. Suddenly, it appeared again, and remained for about 30 seconds, and abruptly disappeared again. I discovered it wasn't a full-moon phase, but the moon is in a crescent phase at that time, so it was not the moon.

It looked circular but on the end they came down to a point kind of like a very circular football it looked metal very shiny but luminous to we couldn't tell if they were lights or part of the body or what's and there was flashing green and red light if someone resembled a blimp if you were stupid enough to know green and red light it somewhat resembled a blimp if you were naive enough to believe so but it had to of been a UFO hopefully someone else theme and got photos because we didn't it was calling East headed in the same direction as the San Gabriel Mountains go and the speed it was moving that was way too quick

I was on my phone as I noticed a lot of light coming from my window (I had my blinds closed and I have black curtains) and yes I was still able to see a round shape so I thought it was the moon but then I thought why would it be so bright. I looked closer after moving my curtains and blinds to the side and saw it in the sky ad figured it was a plane but it looked to close, and since there aren't really many airports that close to here I took a closer look and noticed flashing lights. I can't really remember if it was more than green and red. I also noticed that overall color of the object was a white light and it was moving slightly up and down not straight across like a normal plane would.

Walked out of my house to go to the Chinese round the corner. About 2 seconds later I look up. To my immediate right, and a little ahead, I saw a bright white light. As soon as I had looked at it, it sped away at unusual speed headed south southeast. I'm shocked!

I went to the top floor of the parking garage at UMB and took 8 pictures of beautiful sunset within 1 minute. When I examined my photos, I found a bright white round object with pinkish ring was caught in my pictures. The positions of this white object in these pictures are quite different, suggesting it was moving during the minute I took the pictures.

Richland, MI
It caught my eye because it didn't look like anything I've seen before and didn't look like a plane. It was reflective like a mirror without any flickering. I watched it for around 30 seconds and then reached for my phone to take a picture. While I was firing up the camera, I watched the object fade like someone used a dimmer switch to "turn it off" and it was gone from site. There was nowhere for it to go, no clouds. But it was gone by the time my camera was ready.

Sunday November 8, 2015, I was driving south on I-79 on the curve between the Carnegie and Heidelberg/Kirwan Heights/Collier exits when a blue ball hovering in the sky caught my eye. When I focused on it, it fell quickly straight towards the ground and disappeared mid-fall.

In the easter sky, a green object appeared in Orion's belt. The object appeared to be far away, but from our perspective had the same diamter as the moon. It hovered briefly and then shot toward the north horizon. The object was circular in shape and did not leave a trail. There were two visible aircraft in the vicinity of the green object.

On the beach of Padre Island National Seashore at exactly Mile marker 20.5 from entrance I observed a white circular craft flying due south along the beach front over the gulf of mexico at a very high altitude and approximately 1 mile away from shore. It was traveling at a very high speed for 15 secs then exited atmosphere by going straight up and out of sight

Olathe, KS
We saw one flickering light near 135th and Pfulmm which traveled east and then west in an erratic pattern. Approximately 300 feet if the ground. It then stopped flickering and appeared to gently descend near just north of 15th near Greenwood. The outline was faintly visible. While attempting to maintain visual during its descent, the object was no longer visible. While continuing to search for the object in the vicinity where it descended we observed the same object back in the sky in approximately the same location. Its flight pattern appeared the same. It then dissappeared and was not located following a brief search. With the airport close it was certainly not a plane. It appeared to possibly be a Chinese lantern. Although that theory does not seem logical because of it reappearing for a brief period.

A white blue tinge circle of light moving erratic through the sky for over an hour now. It's not a beam of light it It's coming from above the clouds and still in the sky.
