UFO spotted at the royal wedding venue, as predicted.

Looks like Prince William and fiancée Kate Middleton will have some unexpected guests at their royal wedding.

A tourist has reportedly filmed a UFO hovering over Westminster Abbey - the venue for Friday's Royal Wedding.

The two-and-a half-minute video footage shows a shimmering white object in a cloudless blue sky near Big Ben.

It seems to move and shift shape - but to have three sections, like the starship USS Enterprise from TV's Star Trek.

"First we thought it was a parachute but it was way too high up," the Sun quoted the tourist as posting it on the Internet.

"It changed shape but stayed there for at least 30 minutes. Then I lost sight of it," the tourist added."

The sighting emerged shortly after retired US Air Force major predicted extra-terrestrials would visit Earth to see William and Middleton tie the knot.

Second Cigar shaped UFO reported over Texas skies

A Cypress, TX, witness reports a white or silver "thin object" hovering 1,000 feet over US 290 that quickly disappeared from view on April 5, 2011, according to April 9, 2011, testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

This is the second cigar-shaped report from Texas in a two-day period. We recently covered a similar shape UFO in the story: Illuminated cigar UFO reported over Texas - a sighting that occurred one day later, on April 6, 2011. In the first case, the witness was able to provide an image of the object, although no town name was mentioned in the public portion of the MUFON report.

"It seemed to be moving to moving parallel to the highway, and as I turned left onto Spring Cypress Road," the witness stated. "The object stopped, then hovered over the freeway, sort of in the upper horizon behind it."

The witness lost sight of the object while driving under the freeway.

"It was gone and nowhere to be found."

Cypress is an unincorporated area in Harris County, located inside the city of Houston, along US 290.The area ranks 50th in the top 100-income areas in the U.S. No images or videos were included with the MUFON report.

The cigar-shaped UFO is not the most common UFO shape, but is frequently spotted across the U.S. Some of the Pcigar-shaped UFO stories we covered here include:

Tennessee witnesses describe cigar-shaped UFO

Low flying cigar UFO moves over Austell, Georgia highway

Pennsylvania witness photographs cigar-shaped UFO

Cigar UFO follows orange spheres over Florida

Cigar-shaped UFO 50 feet over Blue Lake, CA home emits buzzing noise

Cigar-shaped UFO hovers low over Phoenix, Arizona highway

Texas is a current UFO ALERT 3 rating, with a high number of UFO sightings nationally. Texas had 39 UFO reports in March 2011 - the second highest reporting state - while California had 45 sightings, the highest reporting state in the nation.

UFO over Sao Paolo, Brazil

It doesn't appear to be an aeroplane, balloons don't disappear in a burst of light, and the largest bird able to hover in one place is still too small to be seen from this distance.

So what is this mysterious object apparently floating in the skies above Brazil?

The city of Sao Paolo is abuzz after amateur footage showing what appears to be an unidentified flying object appeared moving through the clouds.

The grey, saucer-shaped object could be seen for nearly a minute before suddenly disappearing in a bright flash of light.

The spectacle is followed by two more mysterious bursts of light.

Brazilian television channel G1 obtained the footage from some motorists who spotted the object near the town of Agudos.

The motorists, who the channel did not identify, said they rushed from their car to film the object with a hand-held camera.

G1 reports that the two camera-operators said that the earth shook just as the two blasts of light appeared – a fact that was corroborated by other people nearby at the time.

Yet no seismic activity has been reported in the area, the nearest tremors occurring south, in Chile.

Philip Cavaca, an expert in video editing, told G1 that the two that reported the sighting are nothing more than expert hoaxers.

‘It can be seen in one frame. When the truck goes by, you can tell that the UFO was moved, which is unnoticeable to the naked eye,’ Cavaca said.

By freezing the image you can see the exact frame in which the so-called UFO alters, Cavaca claimed.

But many internet users, viewing the footage after it went viral, believe otherwise.

'It looks just like all the other images of UFOs, it must be real!!' one user wrote excitedly.

'Are you stupid?' another replied.

UFO mystery in Kolkata air

Prasanta Paul, Kolkata, Feb 1, DH News Service :

A glowing round object making a speedy descent near the West Bengal-Bihar border early on January 26 left pilots of five aircraft baffled, triggering widespread speculation about unidentified flying objects (UFOs).

The first person to sight the object was a senior Air India pilot who was navigating the aircraft at a height of 34,000 ft during its flight from Kolkata to New Delhi.

“The plane was just entering the airspace of Gaya, close to Bengal-Bihar border, when I first noticed the glowing object, below the aircraft, hurtling down at a very high speed,” Captain Rishi was quoted as saying by the Air Traffic Control (ATC) Tower here at Dum Dum International Airport.

The Air India pilot initially didn’t pay much attention as it is customary for the pilots to notice several such things midair. But when the aircraft was close to Varanasi, the object was still brightly visible.

Without wasting time, he informed the Varanasi Air Traffic Control from where ATC, Kolkata, was alerted.

The officials at ATC pondered over whether pilots of other international flights that might have crossed the Kolkata-Bihar-Varanasi route, had also observed the glowing object reported by Capt Rishi.

Accordingly, the ATC, Kolkata, beamed asking signals for other international flights that flew the same airspace during the period concerned.

Foreign pilots confirm

To their utter surprise, the air traffic control officials were told by as many as four foreign airlines flight pilots that they had seen the same object and all of them reiterated that it was falling down at a great speed!

FinAir of Finland and Novou Air of Sweden were flying from the West to East while a couple of flights of Cathay Pacific and Dynasty Airways of China were moving in the opposite direction at an altitude between 34,000 and 37,000 ft over the airspace supposed to be in the trajectory of the object.

Once the foreign airlines pilots radioed back the ATC tower here, confirming their sighting of the object, ATC engineers immediately got in touch with the Indian Air Force. However, the IAF engineers pointed out that their powerful radar had failed to track or notice any unusual object.

“It could be a shooting star or part of a meteor or a metal that had a sudden entry into the earth’s atmosphere as a result of which it turned into a burning object and appeared glowing from a distance,” explained Positional Astronomy Centre director Sanjib Sen.

“There is no denying the fact of its existence as so many pilots having seen it.”
But when everyone had seen it falling at a high speed, where and when the object had hit the earth? There is apparently no answer to this question so far.

Orb-of-light UFO spotted over Dome of Rock, Jerusalem

It could be dismissed as a hoax, except, the same footage was shot in two different angles by two different unrelated people. The first thing that comes to my mind is, what are these "orbs" made of? Surely, this one is not the first of its kind. I've previously linked a video of it titled "Milkhill UFO incident" followed by another one seemingly making crop circles over a field.

"Orb" UFO's have also made an appearance in the famous Rendlesham (England) incident in 1980.

UFO drops flare like objects over Utah

An unidentified flying object was filmed dropping flare-like objects over Utah last week, leaving locals to wonder if they had experienced a close encounter with alien spacecrafts.

“They looked like they were flying in formation perfectly together and then whatever was dropping looked like it was burning real bright,” witness Mike Galbraith told Utah’s ABC 4. An Air Force veteran, Galbraith says that the trails of white lights falling from the objects were not military flares. “They usually shoot out the sides, or they shoot down, and there are a lot of them and you could definitely hear them.” Galbraith said the UFOs were silent.

According to AOL News, local airports and military installations have offered no explanation for the lights.

“I don’t believe in extraterrestrials,” said local resident Lynette Chidester. “I noticed over the roof of the garage a red light and a white light, and the red light isn’t flashing like an airplane light does — that’s what drew my attention to it.”

She then saw the streaks of white, glittering light reported by other witnesses like Galbraith. “Out of the red light comes, like, a firework — the phosphorescent silver — it’s coming down out of it and I thought, ‘OK, I’ve never seen that before.”

Residents reported seeing the lights for 15 minutes before they flew away.

‘Crop circle’ in Indonesian rice paddy field

Thousands of curious onlookers are flocking to central Indonesia to look at a crop circle in a rice field following rumors it was formed by a UFO.

Though clearly sculptured by humans - it looks like an intricately designed flower - the 70-yard-wide (70-meter-wide) circle has drawn so much attention that police have blocked off the area with yellow tape.

Villagers have started charging entrance fees.

Guntur Purwanto, chief of Jogotirto village in Sleman district, said the circle appeared in the middle of the green rice paddies over the weekend.

Among those turning out and offering opinions were officials from Indonesia’s space agency, well-respected astronomers and nuclear agency officials. All agree it was not left by an UFO.

A fresh sighting of a triangular UFO dubbed the “Dudley Dorito” racing through the skies has been reported in the Black Country – and this time it seemed to bring a friend.

Security officer Glyn Richards was having a cigarette in the garden of his home in Coppice Lane, Quarry Bank, when he saw a mysterious object with flashing lights in the sky, appearing to travel towards Dudley from Halesowen.

Moments later, he said, another UFO with a steady white light appeared and seemed to chase it off.

“I never really believed in anything like that, but it was no helicopter or plane that I’ve ever seen,” said father-of-two Mr Richards, aged 33. “I had a perfect view of it for around 20 seconds. It had flashing red lights in the centre and white lights at the end. Then another thing with just a bright white light appeared and it looked like it scared it away as it shot off in a perfectly straight line.”

It is the third reported sighting of the Dorito in as many years.

Mr Richards said he had called his nine-year-old daughter and seven-year-old son out of the house to see the objects, and following the sighting, which happened at around 7.45pm on Monday, they logged on to the internet and discovered previous sightings of the UFO on the Express & Star website — along with its own entry on Wikipedia.

“I was shocked but it was quite exciting as well — it was probably just a military plane or something but it’s interesting to think it could be something else,” he said.

In November, quality inspector Munesh Mistry reported seeing the triangular-shaped object in the skies near his home in Andrew Road, Tipton.

The object has also been spotted hovering over the Merry Hill Shopping Centre in Brierley Hill — and in February last year a UFO sighting was recorded by Sean Gibbs-Percival over the skies of Oldbury. On April 16, 2009, builders working at West Midland Safari Park were shocked to see a flying saucer-shaped object soaring above them.

'Pear-shaped' UFO spotted in East Kilbride

A motorist on the East Kilbride Expressway has reported spotting a mysterious object in the sky.

George King reported the mystery on the UK UFO Sightings website, following his unexplained sighting on Sunday, January 2 at around 8pm.

He said: "I was sitting in my car, facing west, when I noticed two orange lights - one smaller than the other - flying low.

"I thought it was a police helicopter but it kept coming with no noise and suddenly shot up skywards right in front of me.

"I jumped out of car to phone my son and to the left of me I saw a large, pear-shaped, bubble type thing heading towards Hamilton/Strathaven."

UFO expert and author Ron Halliday said: "There have been a number of sightings in the East Kilbride area, certainly since the beginning of this Millennium. It is somewhat of a hotspot for UFO activity, with a regular series of sightings.

"It is an intriguing sighting. There have been a number of odd objects seen in that area, strange things such as a coffin shaped UFO. Lights in the sky and moving off at a high speed both fit the patterns of a typical UFO report.

"Pear shaped is a new one to me, although ‘bubble’ shaped things are often described as looking like space crafts."

Tenessee witnesses describe cigar shaped UFO

Tennessee witnesses had a good view of a white cigar-shaped UFO for a minute and-a-half beginning at 9:52 a.m. on January 8, 2011, that they note had no visible tail, wings, windows, or markings, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

While no city was mentioned in the public portion of the MUFON report, the driver and two children were traveling west on Union Avenue at Cooper Avenue when the “large, white, non-reflective, cigar shaped object” moved overhead.

“This object was a long cylinder-shaped (cigar) and rounded on both ends,” the reporting witness stated. “It was white, but not reflecting the sun at all. It moved at a steady pace toward the south and slowly began ascending and turning slightly to the south west. We continued to watch this object, discussing it the entire time, looking for anything that could identify it (ie wings, tail, propeller, windows, colors or markings).”

No images or video were included with the MUFON report, which was filed on January 11, 2011.

Tennessee is a current UFO ALERT 5 rating, with a lower number of UFO sightings nationally. Tennessee had 7 UFO reports in December 2011. California led the nation with 45 sighting reports.

TN, January 8, 2011 - Large white cigar shaped object moving from north to south, ascending and turning to the southwest. MUFON Case # 27357.

January 8, 2011, Saturday morning at 9:52am, bright blue sky, no clouds. I was driving west on Union Avenue and had crossed Cooper Avenue when I saw overhead a large, white, non-reflective, cigar shaped object moving to the south. There were 2 youths in my back seat and I asked them if they could see it, too. They could view the object from the back seat, initially leaning forward and looking out the windshield and then looking out the side passenger window behind me (the driver).

At first glance I thought it to be a commercial jet, however, when I took a second look and asked my passengers to look, we saw there was no tail, no wings, no windows, no markings. This object was a long cylinder-shaped (cigar) and rounded on both ends. It was white, but not reflecting the sun at all. It moved at a steady pace toward the south and slowly began ascending and turning slightly to the south west. We continued to watch this object, discussing it the entire time, looking for anything that could identify it (ie wings, tail, propeller, windows, colors or markings). We watched it literally as far as we could see it.

When we could no longer see the white cigar shaped object we saw in that same area a jet-liner (in the vicinity of the Memphis International Airport) which showed up black against the blue sky and the wings and tail were quite visible even from the long distance. I asked my passengers if that looked like the object we all saw and they agreed that the object we saw and discussed was NOT an airplane.

I turned off Union Avenue at Willett and arrived at my destination. I estimate that we saw and observed this object for approximately 1 minute to 1 1/2 minutes and the only time we could not see it was when a building obstructed our view.

UFO darts across Oklahoma and Arkansas skies

UFO darted across the Oklahoma skies in a bluish-green glow. Authorities don't know what it was. People in Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma both saw the bright light passing over the area. The light was seen as far away as Florida.

Everyone is guessing what it may have been. Officials think that the object may have broken up and some pieces are on the ground in Oklahoma. According to KFOR, "Sheriff's dispatchers on both sides of the border say they received calls about the light Tuesday night."

The sky just lit up, and there is a picture of the object that someone in Oklahoma took, so your guess is as good as the next guy's. Residents of both states would like a definitive answer though. Oklahoma residents are being told that there may be debris in the state from the eerie light that appeared and disappeared just as quickly.

What it was is any one's guess, but there have certainly been some strange things in the sky and on the Earth lately. Rumors are flying about the bluish-green glowing light. Whatever it was, it was big and flashy.

UFOs spotted over Maloneys

They came from outer space ... or maybe just Batehaven.

It appears that the impressive spotlight at the Bells Carnival at Batehaven has triggered a UFO sighting in Maloneys Beach.

Last Thursday, a Maloneys Beach resident, who will remain anonymous, saw strange lights in the size and shape of hula hoops from his yard, around 9.30pm.

“They were like smoke rings, one after the other, coming from the south-west to the north-east, and they would reach a point and disappear,” he said.

“I didn’t expect little green men to come out of them, but it was quite unusual.”

The resident did consider the carnival.

“But I thought that they weren’t coming from the right direction,” he said.

“I accept that the carnival is the best answer. They must have a clever machine.”

Bells Carnival’s Elwin Bell thought the lights probably came from one of the spotlights on his no-limit rides.

“Even as far as Maloneys Beach, it would explain the sightings,” he said.

Canberra-based cryptonaturalist Tim the Yowie Man gave a possible explanation for the lights appearing to be coming from a different direction than the carnival.

“You only need one cloud in the sky to create refraction of lights,” he said.

“It used to happen a lot a couple of years ago in Canberra when the Hellenic Club had their big light on when they held their disco. People would report UFOs on the nights the disco was held.”

UFO sighting in Córdoba

Argentina, January 8, 2011

The incident happened in Villa Carlos Paz. A Youtube user identified as Alberto, uploaded a video he shot with his own camera, where you can see a strange flying object going from left to right and disappearing in less than a second at high speed.

It is known the Uritorco for the stories told not only by the inhabitants of the surrounding areas, but also by students of this phenomenon, who claim to have seen UFOs.

The two videos are of the same situation, however the first record shows the raw version, unedited, where you see a small black spot flying over the sky. The second allows you, thanks to the zoom, to see the object moving and fading in just a moment.

UFO reported over Harborough

Published on Tuesday 04^th January 2011 10:46 AM

A STRANGE orange-coloured object has been seen in the skies above Harborough in the town’s latest UFO mystery.

It was seen by Ian Patterson, who reported his experience on the UFO sightings website www.uk-ufo.co.uk.

Mr Patterson said he made the sighting on Sunday, January 2, at about 7pm.

Writing on the website, he said: “I saw what appeared to be a large orange aircraft landing light aproaching at high altitude and joked to my son that it was a UFO.

“I said if it’s a plane it’ll have red or a green flashing light, but it had no other lights.

“It seemed to get bigger and then turned to it’s right and went higher at incredible speed and disappeared into space. The night sky at this point was clear and black. I tried to check space launches/landings, but couldn’t find any relevant.”

There have been numerous sightings of mysterious objects in the skies above Harborough reported to the Mail in recent years, the majority of which have been explained away as Chinese lanterns.

The lanterns, popular as an alternative to fireworks on Bonfire Night or at New Year festivities, are like miniature hot-air balloons and are carried upwards by the heat of a small wick.

Extremely light, they can travel long distances, move very quickly in even a light wind and glow orange due to the burning wick.

Lights over Kalmykia, Russia - president to write book on UFO

Elista - Hundreds of locals claim to have seen a triangle of rotating circles in the skies of Elista, the capital of Russia's southern Republic of Kalmykia.

According to RT, the sightings have been seen by hundreds of locals every ten days this month, and if true, would make the next sighting on New Year’s Day. The last sighting was on December 22. Spotlights over a shopping center is the apparent reason. But in another twist, the President of the Republic of Kalmykia, Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, claims to have been abducted by aliens from a Moscow apartment, in 1997. RT reports Ilyumzhinov saying they are a friendly type, and are not ready to meet humans. He remembers walking through a long tunnel that led to a space ship, where he met aliens in yellow spacesuits. In an interview with New York Times on November 18, 2010, he says that “it is no coincidence that every year NASA registers over 4,000 contacts with extraterrestrial civilizations.” He plans to write about his experience, releasing the book in the United States in 2011. The multi-millionaire wrote an autobiography twelve years ago, with chaptert titles such as "Without Me the People Are Incomplete", "I Become a Millionaire," and "It Only Takes Two Weeks to Have a Man Killed". He is also the President of FIDE (or the "World Chess Federation") and believes that chess is a gift from the extraterrestrial. According to RadioLiberty or RFE/RL, Ilyumzhinov was stepping down from office in September 2010, after 17 years of rule. Kalmykia, population of 300,000, is one of Russia's poorer regions. Ilyumzhinov has faced fierce opposition to his eccentric rule, which his opponents say was marred by corruption and gross mismanagement. But according to Wikipedia, he is still president. The Guardian reports that Kalmykia is the only Buddhist region in Europe, populated mostly by descendants of the Golden Horde that never returned home after the Mongol Khans retreated from Russia. The politician who is not afraid to talk about aliens, feels we are not alone.

Strange sighting above Adelaide, Australia

(This footage is not related to the one spotted on December 7 2010.)

ADELAIDE is under alien attack - at least that is what thousands of UFO chasers want us to believe.

Footage of unexplained lights in the skies over Adelaide captured on December 7 has sparked debate between thousands of believers and sceptics on YouTube.

The footage, which runs for 76 minutes, has even prompted one cyber expert to proclaim governments are withholding secret intelligence that proves humans are not alone in the universe and D-day is tomorrow.

"I know what I saw and it was very real. This is no joke guys!" a comment on the YouTube footage says.

"I've seen a page saying governments have until December 31 to tell the world, otherwise star nations will initiate a series of open, public, dramatically obvious demonstrations of presence, such that the government will be compelled to publicly acknowledge star visitors."

The video has been viewed more than 55,000 times.

One non-believer offered an explanation to the December 7 UFO sighting, posted by FluffyJet Productions.

The non-believer posted a video last week of a Pulselite unit being used on a plane and said such warning devices are now used on some planes landing in Adelaide to avoid bird strikes.

Adelaide Airport general manager of corporate affairs John McArdle said Pulselite units were used on aircraft flying over Adelaide.

Southern Russia becomes an attraction for aliens?

Unidentified flying objects began to appear in the sky above the city of Elista, the capital of the Kalmykia Republic (Southern Russia), in December of the outgoing year. The former head of the republic once claimed that he had personally met and communicated with extraterrestrial beings clad in yellow spacesuits. The official urged everyone not to be ashamed of speaking about the aliens in public.

Click here to see the video

In December of 2010, hundreds of Elista residents could see UFOs appearing in the sky above their heads every ten days of the month, the Nezavisimaya Gazeta wrote. The most recent sighting took place on December 22: eyewitnesses said they saw two concentric circles in the sky from 3 to 7 p.m. local time. The inner circle was rotating clockwise, and the outer one was rotating anticlockwise. Others could see a triangle object with beams of light coming from it.

The two sightings were filmed, and the footage was shown on local television. Reporters said that it could be earth-like atmospheric phenomena, but they promised to investigate the incident thoroughly.

Many residents of Elista treated the phenomenon seriously. The former head of the republic, a multi-millionaire businessman, Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, said he was not surprised about the UFO appearing above the city. Such incidents, the official said, would continue to occur not only in Kalmykia, but in other territories of the Russian Federation too.

"They appear everywhere now. They appear near Moscow, above Moscow, and in many other territories. NASA documents over 4,000 UFO sightings every year. They even now have the ambassador for extraterrestrial contact at the United Nations," Ilyumzhinov, who currently serves as the president of the World Chess Federation said.

According to the official, the present-day faith in aliens is just as natural for people as the faith in gods and supernatural forces that was widely spread thousands of years ago. If you do not believe in aliens, this only demonstrates your arrogance and selfishness, the official said.

"Aliens told me: "You, humans, have not contributed anything to the development of the civilization, and you are cannibals. Isn't this a manifestation of madness - being a cannibal?" the newspaper quoted the official as saying.

Scientists can not give any clear explanation to the "atmospheric phenomenon" in the sky above Elista. Badma Mikhalayev, the chairman of the theoretical physics department of the Kalmyk State University, did not exclude the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations, although, he added, the circles in the sky above Elista could not be treated as a proof for those civilizations to exist.

Russian ufologist Gennady Belimov stated that the mysterious phenomenon above Elista was not the only UFO sighting in Russia's Nizhnevolzhsky region during the recent days.

A female resident of the town of Volzhsky in the Volgograd region told the ufologist that she saw a "rainbow ribbon" around the Moon at night of December 20. Other eyewitnesses said that the sighting lasted for some 30 minutes.

Kirsan Ilyumzhinov gave an interview about his encounter with extraterrestrials to Russia's well-known journalist Vladimir Pozner in the spring of this year. On September 18 1997, he came to his Moscow apartment, read a book, watched TV and was about to fall asleep when he heard someone opening the door of his balcony.

When Ilyumzhinov came up to the balcony, he saw a large semitransparent tube there. He entered the tube and saw human-like creatures in yellow spacesuits there. The communication with them took place with the power of thought, because "there was not enough oxygen inside." The aliens turned out to be rather friendly: they gave Ilyumzhinov a tour of their spaceship and then let him go. They told him that they were not prepared to contact the rest of mankind yet.

Several days after the interview, Andrey Lebedev, a deputy of the State Duma, sent an address to the Russian president requesting an investigation be conducted into Ilyumzhinov's statements. Lebedev said that the Kalmyk official was "concealing something" and could deliver secret information to humanoids when touring their spaceship.

'Elegant' orb hovers low over California home

Two witnesses in Stanislaus County report watching an orb that hovered at times between 50 and 20 feet in the air after midnight on August 16, 2010, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The two were smoking at an open window on the second floor of a home in a new development that faces the Stanislaus River when they originally noticed the orb moving into the air and then stopping at a distance of 50 feet off of the ground.

"We watched it hover for about a minute. The only way to describe its movements is perfect, precise, elegant as it started to 'float' or 'hover' towards my neighborhood," the reporting witness stated.

The object was lost to sight behind a neighbor's home and they thought the event was over - but the object appeared again.

"Only this time hovering symmetrically, parallel to the road and towards my house. It was only about 20 feet in the air and slow."

They observed three colors on the orb as it moved.

"As the object approached my house, let me tell you, the color was amber, yellow, red. The orb did not glare or hurt our eyes to look at. I shut my window yet my blinds were still open and we stopped screaming. It hovered directly in front of my house for about 30 seconds, it seemed to be on the streetlight, but not physically harming anything. The orb then shot off, so fast, to left of my neighbors house into the field behind our houses. The streetlight was out for a moment and then flickered gradually back to on. I opened my window and we were leaning out onto the roof for just one more glimpse of this unknown object. The field was alight, a glow coming from it and turning everything sepia colored around us. We felt so calm, and like we wanted to see "them" communicate with "them". It was a tranquil feeling, like everything would be alright."

The witness also describes other odd events in the same area, commenting that the area should be investigated as it is "infested."

No images or video were attached to the report, which was filed on December 27, 2010. Stanislaus County in located in California's Central Valley, population 446,997. We recently covered the orb story, 2006: 'Intelligent' orb floats within 10 feet of witnesses.

California is a current UFO ALERT 3 rating, with a higher number of UFO sightings nationally. California had 65 UFO sighting reports in November 2010 and 40 in October.

CA, August 16, 2010 - My bestfriend and I were leaning out my window staring at the night sky and an orb shot straight up into the sky and made its way to my house. MUFON Case # 27138.

My bestfriend Stephanie and I went to the movies one night and came home around twelve. We got ready for bed, went to my room on the second story of my house and opened up my window to look at the night sky and smoke a couple cigarettes as we do sometimes before we sleep. My house is in a new development, the development was built on what used to be a bunch of farms, a couple ranches still surrounding. My house is in the coner of the development, I have no neighbors to the right and only one to the left, a house slightly smaller than our own. Feilds surround our houses, very little light obstucts the night sky, it is always a very clear veiw.

Anyways, we're staring off towards where the stanislaus river would be, enjoying our smokes and an orb shoots into the sky, perfectly. About 50 feet staight up and stops. We watch it hover for about a minute, the only way to describe it's movements is perfect, precise, elegant as it started to "float" or "hover" towards my neighborhood. It went behind a couple houses beyond our veiw and we thought "oh, well that was it" and continued with our smokes.

Still staring down my street and into the sky a bit in awe of what we had seen a deep eerie silence took to the surroundings,and it appears again. Only this time hovering symetrically, parallel to the road and towards my house. It was only about 20 feet in the air and slow. Of course, we started screaming the closer it got. LOUD! My sister was in the room right next to us, her bed directly on the other side of the wall where mine was. She had gone to bed. I am positive she did not have enough time to reach sleep, let alone a deep sleep. She did not wake up from our screaming. Neither did my parents, who were just down the hall and sleep with their door wide open. It was completely silent except for our terror.

As the object approached my house, let me tell you, the color was amber, yellow, red. The orb did not glare or hurt our eyes to look at. I shut my window yet my blinds were still open and we stopped screaming. It hovered directly in front of my house for about 30 seconds, it seemed to be on the streetlight, but not physically harming anything. The orb then shot off, so fast, to left of my neighbors house into the feild behind our houses. The streetlight was out for a moment and then flickered gradually back to on. I opened my window and we were leaning out onto the roof for just one more glipse of this unknown object. The feild was alight, a glow coming from it and turning everything sepia colored around us. We felt so calm, and like we wanted to see "them" communicate with "them". It was a tranquil feeling, like everything would be alright.

We were listening to a mix cd that had seemed to stop playing throughout this experience. We sat on my bed in awe and a song startled us a bit, from just starting to play. The lyrics are what may have alerted us, "Something tells me this isn't real, something tells me not to care."

That is really how we felt, you know? Ironic, along with the fact that the cd was made that day and we just happened upon that song.

We left my window open for awhile trying to get just one more sighting, just to feel that almost comforting, calm, and tranquil feeling again.

What has brought me to giving my experience to Mufon, is that I've seen more unexplained events afterwards. Orbs that turn into airplanes, some star treck/star wars looking craft hovering above a feild just 15 feet above the ground and rising slowly. I have NEVER seen white owls until after my first experience. I know how stupid it sounds but research I've done makes me believe owls have something more to them. I mean I've seen 7 owls take off my roof uniformly, in a V-shape towards where I saw the first amber orb. Shortly after they were out of sight I saw a white orb, in the same spot as the amber one, flight to to same highth in the sky, turn amber and almost flatten to disappear. I watched for about an hour and it did not go down my street this time, unfortunately.

There are very many witnesses to these owls, and a friend of my sister, who experienced the Phoenix Light Phenomena (amber orbs) in the nineties has had strange dreams and experiences since moving to Stanislas County.

Friend's of mine, and people I don't even know have reported seeing these amber orbs. In daytime, nightime, dusk, dawn, twighlight. Everyday school kids are seeing the orbs that turn into airplanes, a new one every week.

I actually saw one while trying to describe them to one of my friends, sitting in his car around the coner from my house one night. He saw this also. My sister and her boyfriend said they had seen a strange airplane at the same time I had when I got home, they had asked me before I had said anything if I had seen it.

So many multiplying strange events have happend since the first.

An amber orb following my sister's boyfriend home from work, just twenty feet above his truck and mimicking his speed, almost messing with him. He felt calm, and in awe.

So many similar, strange and unexplainable events. I don't know what to think anymore. I really think Mufon should reasearch this area of california. I REALLY do. Sightings and experiences are increasing as the year ends, I can't wait to see what is in store for our nation in 2007.

I have never experienced a UFO or unexplainable event until 2010, and it is no shock that I found out it is the year for ufo's in california.

We are infested.
