2015-02-15 (Sunday 20:00 - 20:30) Clear Sky - No Clouds In passenger vehicle SEA-TAC Air Traffic Visible Overhead and in the Distance. While driving south on 166th AVE NE in Redmond, Washington my passenger and i BOTH saw a brilliant white light traveling EAST to WEST in an what seemed to be a descending flight path. The light was much brighter than the SEA-TAC air traffic. No debris/sparks/trailing fire were visible at or near the object. The object was traveling significantly faster than the commercial SEA-TAC aircraft traffic that were visible. The object was traveling EAST to WEST from approximately 10:00 (EAST) to 3:00 (WEST). SEA-TAC air traffic is a constant presence in the sky over our community. I've seen many different types of aircraft of varying types (private, commercial, and military fixed, rotary, and jets) in the sky over Redmond at different altitudes. Never have I seen any aircraft traveling at this speed. Additionally the apparent angle of descent had me expecting a fireball in the distance. Nothing.

My boyfriend and i had gone to visit a couple of friends not far from our home. After hanging out in the front yard for some time it started to get dark and we were gazing at the night sky talking about some of the strange lights and movements of the lights noticed lately by the 5 of us. We were looking west and just above the horizon we noticed a brighter and larger than normal "star". In about ten minutes the light had moved quite a bit higher in the sky and all the while seemed brighter and closer to us than any other star. I then began gazing at a plane crossing the sky from north going south and as it passed by under a small reddish "star". Then as it was almost past the "star", that red thing then took off chasing the plane. Then after it was almost caught up to the plane it reduced speed and seemed to go then outward and farther from our view. All 5 of us noticed this and 4 of us had never seen anything like it before. What was really strange was the 5th person had just been telling us that he has seen those (what he refers to as "wobblers") chasing aircraft before. Also strange, he noted that they for some strange reason seem to respond to us observing them and since i feel he just might be right.

Looking north twoards local airport: North Bend,Or. (OTH) I often check the sky for sattlelite activity coming onto USA soil from western pacific area. This object was lower than usual sattelite views. It was quite "Yellowish Bright" . I thought maybe it was the International Space Station, But the local media"s did not forewarn? I notified the Seattle office of the FAA /unusual sightings.

Bright light, like a star directly overhead. Light was moving up and down and from side to side. Movement was erratic. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

My attention was drawn to the brightest star I've ever seen. Then I noticed it didn't appear to be a star at all. Instead it looked something like my imagination would envision a rocket to look like; except it was stationary. It was many times brighter and lower than any other star in the sky. It didn't twinkle. It seemed as if the main body had almost a diamond shape and an equally as bright white trail. Then to my amazement as I scanned the sky I saw two more of the exact same description. The brightest was to the north of my location. The one in the sky directly before me (I was facing east so it would have been out over the Atlantic shore) seemed highest in the sky. The third was in between the altitude of the other two and was in the southern sky. They were equidistant from one another. I know they weren't stars because there were stars in the sky and none looked anything like these. I watched as long as the cold would allow me, about twenty minutes.

after about a minute we see 3 helicopters fly in from the north trying to route this light one is helicopter is flying a search pattern and the other 2 are chasing the orange light. as soon as the light went over the mountains we lost sight and went inside thinking that was odd.

Santa Clarita, CA
These houses were on hills and from the distance it looked as if they were floating low. All I know is that these lights were a faded green color. As soon as I registered what I was seeing, the lights slowly faded away and they were gone. Mind you, today's been extremely windy, so the sky looked especially crystal clear.

I went out on the porch and was looking at the stars which were especially beautiful this night. I saw a red light flashing just behind some trees across the road. I thought it was a tower at first, but then I noticed a second red flashing light. I walked into the yard to get a better view and saw that they were moving just above the tree line. They moved to my left and they were flashing in a perfect call and response pattern. They moved fluidly and appeared to be separate objects. Their distance was not constant. They continued around to the left and over the hill until I could not see them. I came inside and searched for similar sightings and found one report that described two lights "dancing in the sky". This description fits what I saw. It was quite beautiful. I came out 5 minutes later and saw them near the mountains west of here, where they soon were out of sight. I saw an airplane plane fly overhead soon after they disappeared. I do not know if that is related. One other thing is that while I was watching them when they were within appx. 100 yards from me, I heard a crash in the house, which scared the death out of me. I ran in and my microphone had tipped over and landed on the ground. I don't know if ufos knock over microphones, but if they do, I find that very rude. I am 33 years old and this is my first sighting. It was very exciting, but I'm also a little shaken because they were so close to the house.

The object (light) will appear in the sky almost every single night. It is a bright light that looks like an airplane, but hovers in the same location for up to 10 minutes at a time. It will slowly ascend upwards, then move horizontally to the west. I have observed this phenomena from my window almost every might. Sometimes even multiple times per night. Seemed to have been hovering above Buster-Boyd Bridge.

Approximately 8:30 ish pm, February 11, 2015, took the dogs out to pee, looked to the left, towards Holden Beach area, saw a longish amber light, very fuzzy, burning in the sky. Then a squarish amber light appeared to the left of the long light, swiftly moved towards and over it, then both disappeared. The square light was very defined, sharp, crisp edges. When I saw the longish light, called to husband to come and help identify and in a matter of seconds, both were gone. Like opening a door and closing it. No sound or odor; dogs didn't react in any way. Too quick for husband to see.

AT ABOUT 7:30PM, MY DAUGHTER, HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING WESTBOUND ON OLIVE AVE. CROSSING THE AQUA FRIA RIVER LOOKING SOUTH TOWARD LUKE AIR FORCE BASE WE SPOTTED THREE LARGE AMBER LIGHTS HOVERING BEHIND THE BASE. WE TURNED LEFT ON LITCHFIELD RD.,AND THEY LOOKED TO BE MOVING SOUTHBOUND. ONE OF THE LIGHTS SLOWLY DISAPPEARED SO WE WENT SOUTHBOUND ON THE 303 FREEWAY TOWARDS THE 10 TO FIND WHERE THE LIGHTS WENT, THEY WENT IN THE DISTANCE SOUTHBOUND TOWARD THE ESTRELLA MOUNTAINS AND THEN DISAPPEARED. WE GOT OFF THE 10 FREEWAY AND EXITED VERRADO WAY NORTHBOUND TO RETURN HOME. THEN WE SAW TWO LIGHTS REAPPEAR, SO WE PULLED OVER TO LOOK, GOT OUT OF OUR CAR AND USED OUR CAMERAS TO FILM. THE LIGHTS APPEARED TO FLICKER GO OUT AND THEN SIX LIGHTS APPEARED. THERE WASN'T ANY SOUNDS THAT WE COULD HEAR. THERE APPEARED TO BE A FLASH UNDER ONE OF THE LIGHTS LIKE LIGHTNING THAT ONLY HIT THE GROUND AT ONE POINT. THERE WAS A MIST OF SMOKE LIKE A TRAIL FROM ABOVE BY THE THE LARGEST ONE. THEY APPEARED TO FLICKER AND DISAPPEAR RADOMLY BUT ONE REMAINED BRIGHT AND DOMINANT THE WHOLE TIME. AND I WOULD APPROXIMATE THE SIZE TO BE AS LARGE AS BIG WATER TANK. THE SIX LIGHTS SLOWLY BECAME TWO AGAIN AND THEN DISAPPEARED COMPLETELY. WE DO HAVE PHONE VIDEO WHICH DOES NOT GIVE SUCH AN AMAZING SIGHTING JUSTICE.

Did anyone else see a bright light with a tail in Portsmouth, Virginia? I have some video. Looked like a comet.

It was just getting dark as I got in my truck while parked on the edge of a field. I was facing east and over the woods to my right I noticed a really bright ball of white light moving slowly to my left. At first I was thinking it was an airplane but the bright light would have been pointed in the direction that it was moving, it was pointed in the opposite direction , behind it... with beams of light coming from the ball of light looking like spokes of a wheel. It was so quiet out there in that farm field... there was absolutely no sound coming from it, nothing...I then hopped out of the truck to take video of it and realized my cell phone was in the truck charging so I ran back and grabbed it, turned on the phone and tried to start the video and noticed it was getting dimmer and seemed to get lower, then I lost sight of it completely as I pressed the start button ... like it disappeared into some low clouds. Airplanes make noise and comets move fast and! leave a tail of fire behind them, this was neither. It truly was the strangest thing I have ever witnessed in my 45 years of life.

Winter Springs, FL
Saw a white light moving in the sky. It was really, really high up, like a plane would fly, but we don't normally have planes flying in that direction at night, and usually they are much lower. I saw the light and ran into the house to get my night vision camera and was able to catch a few seconds of it on video. It was moving at a steady pace, and I heard no sound at all. I live in a flight traffic area and ALWAYS hear planes when they go over, there was no sound from this. It was moving from the north to the south. Saw no blinking lights. Even the video doesn't show blinking lights. Thought it might be a satellite or the ISS, but when I went online to find the current positions of all of them nothing matched the location of what I saw over central Florida. The object never changed direction, never changed speed, just kept on a steady course.

Las Vegas, NV
While moving north in vehicle in Henderson. Witnessed by four additional passengers. It was moving from the left to right directly in front of us many miles away. It appeared as a bright dot of light, then another, then another, then another, then a dash, all in a line. Then they disappeared and it repeated again several times, all the while moving from the left from my vantage to the right. Repeated three or four times until it became obstructed by local trees and buildings.

I live very close to the Las Vegas international airport and often look up at the planes flying over our apartment. Was walking to my car when a plane flew over. I looked up at it and shortly after, a fairly large bright white light entered my field of view headed the same direction as the plane which was west, also the direction I was walking. It was not blinking, it had no streak and was moving about 3-5 times faster than the plane. It suddenly vanished as I watched it racing across the sky. It was a perfectly clear night no clouds anywhere. I thought it could be a meteor but it was much larger than any I have ever seen and it left no streak as meteors do when they burn through the atmosphere.

Marina del Rey, CA
My boyfriend and I were leaving Ralph's in Marina del Rey around 6:40pm tonight, when we noticed a bright green glowing light in the southern part of the sky. It was just a tiny bit larger than a star. The object was green in color and the light faint, almost transparent yet very visible. We suspected it was a helicopter or a drone, but due to the transparent green glow of the light there was no way it was a helicopter. We're not sure if what we saw was extraterrestrial in origin, but if was for sure an unidentified flying object. The sighting lasted just under a minute while we were stuck at a traffic light. The entire time the object seemed to be moving back and forth in the sky, but not like a helicopter would move. It proceeded to change it's color to bright red then zip away in a straight line. It went behind a building as our car began to move. We passed the building after we proceeded through the intersection and we couldn't see it anymore. It vanished out of sight.
