Just saw it tonight in the skies over Redondo Beach. A bright ring of blue-white light flying low, rolling and tumbling, sometimes little strobes going off, no sound whatsoever. Last seen descending over the the Hollywood Riviera area. It was cool.
Unfortunately, all I had was my crappy iPhone camera, so I didn't get any good pics or video.
Did you photoshop/tweak that image to bring out the brightness of that object? It's so bright!
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, I was checking out photos of the premiere of Moon Rising and noticed you were in a couple shots. What did you think of the film?
I saw it too. I thought it was a star. But upon further investigation my wife noticed its strange behavior. I summed it up to a effect caused by frost fog. But I'm glad to see you noticed it to. I was moving very slowly. I thought it was Sirius at first.

Cool. At least you got something on film. I have nothing, just memories.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw my first "UFO", there was no razzle-dazzle like yours. Mine was in broad daylight in Toronto. I saw a weird balloon-like object hovering above some power lines. It didn't look other worldly, so I filed it away as just "weird". The next day there was a report on the news of a UFO in Israel with a photo, which was remarkably the same as what I saw.
What I saw was not a star, it was a low flying object no more than a couple thousand feet up, if that. I was solid (it was black in the middle, and it blotted out the lighter gray cloud cover behind it.
ReplyDeleteYou can see all the iphone photos I took on my flickr site here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/87499547@N00
Yeah I went to the premiere, and I think Jose is recutting it. We'll see after it gets done but Jose is a great guy, and I'm sure he'll do great with the material he has.
No Photoshop on any of the pics, BTW. I wish I could have taken video but I didn't have my digital camera with me. The pics don't do it justice to how weird it was.
Good for you Mike!
ReplyDelete@ least you have a camera....no matter how low res, but you got one. Like Tim said, I have only memories. To bad for me that I don't have a camera to caught an UFO, cigar type, @ 20 meters from me, huge like a train wagon that I saw in a freezing February/2000 around 08:00 AM
Crappy camera or not....you got a picture!
:)
It's funny, but it seems like they always do something very noticeable (flashing lights, odd movements) to sort of 'introduce' themselves to observers. My first UFO experience was pretty funny-- I was outside at night sky-watching (with binoculars), and I picked up a slow-moving 'little white dot'. I assumed was a satellite until it made a sudden, perfect 90-degree turn and took off like a shot.
ReplyDeleteSince then, I've had a number of interesting sightings, and I've reported several to George Filer's 'Filer's Files' UFO sighting database-website. What is interesting to me is that the objects always seem to do something 'weird' so that observers are in no doubt that they are looking at something anomalous.

Cool sighting, Mike. My first and only UFO sighting was near Belleville, WI (in '91?). I was on the road and cars were stopping to the side in droves in the countryside. Saw a couple of lights come from a main light, then they zig-zagged or bounced about until they couldn't be seen.
ReplyDeleteNot unless the comet was in the Earth's atmosphere, in front of the local cloud cover which it blotted out.
ReplyDeleteStill have yet to see my first UFO. Boooooo.
ReplyDeleteDo you know when hes gonna Host Coast?
ReplyDeleteCome on we won't tell anyone ;D
Not for sure. I'll ask.
ReplyDeleteMike, I found some images last night pertaining to the Moon robot head.
ReplyDeleteOn my satellite blog...

But Mike, I hope that Richard have no health problems and is feeling well. In one month he gonna hit 64 though.
ReplyDeleteRichard host Coast to Coast?
WOW!
Mm...is a bet that Richard made it with George Noory regarding Obama succes? if so....a bet is a bet.
Hope that the boss of Coast will not revoke the bet.
:))
Yes, he won his bet with George and he will host the show at some point. Right now it just doesn't seem to be a priority.
ReplyDeleteHe'd better get to though because at the rate he's going, it's almost midnight and BHO is about to turn into Jimmy Carter.
He's also busy editing the revised pages for DM, we're doing research for DMII, and a couple other things I can't say anything about yet.
No worries though, it shall all come to pass soon enough.
ESA is inviting industrial, technology and scientific communities to provide inputs for experiments and payload elements for accommodation on its first lunar lander.

So...they still want to go to the Moon despite the numerous info that I hear from many sources that more calls to abandon the Moon missions, that is obsolete and rather go to satellites, like Europe, the satellite of Jupiter.
:)
I still miss Richard's articles like:
Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter ... and "The Lost Cities of Barsoom" ....

ReplyDeleteVery interesting contact sighting! I've had the good fortune to see one of those black triangle craft, the kind with the light on each corner, and it was pretty amazing! It came in very low over the rooftops of my neighborhood, and was probably only about a half a block away from where I was standing in my back yard. It was absolutely silent, and as it flew forward, the craft was also rotating about its own center. This made the red lights on each corner behave in a very non-aircraft-like manner (they appeared to be crossing back-and-forth and through each other due to my almost edge-on view of the ship) which was how I picked it up visually in the first place. The lights themselves were also interesting, as they were a very bright and vivid red, but they did not reflect off of anything (like trees or rooftops) as the ship passed over them.
The other thing about this sighting that was rather strange was that I got what I can only describe as a 'blast of fear' from the ship as it passed. It was an odd sensation, as I was still at the same time very excited and happy that I was seeing the ship fly by so closely. I quickly realized that what was happening was that I was somehow picking up (via consciousness-field communication) the nervousness of the crew of the ship. They were vectoring in on my consciousness in order to fly by near to me, but they were also very worried about doing so, probably because I live in the flightpath for Lindbergh Field, as well as in the 'outbound' flightpath for Navy jets taking off from the area around the sub base out on Point Loma. Additionally, I am also in the flightpath for the Sheriff's Dept. Astraea helicopters' helipad, so there is a lot of air traffic around me, and my perception of what I felt was that they were rather nervous about being seen.
At any rate, the ship continued past my position, and as it headed west, I lost sight of it behind my neighbor's grapefruit tree. I dashed across the back yard in an attempt to keep it in sight, but apparently, as soon as it left my line of sight, it somehow just vanished. I went through my garage and out to the front of the house to see if I could spot it, but it was long gone.
Since my first 'flying dot' sighting, I have been actively trying to communicate via my consciousness with the dots/craft as I see them. I also now understand that probably a good third of the energies I commune with when I practice healing meditations, etc., are Skypeople.
Also, before I forget, I have definitely run across some other accounts of people seeing beings with large golden (Cougar-like, round-pupil) eyes, but I can't remember exactly where I read about it right off hand-- I'll have to do some digging, but I do know that you're not alone in seeing what you saw.
Peace,
T'Zairis
Well, other people have had these experiences. I haven't.
ReplyDeleteThankfully. But was cool to finally see a UFO from a distance.
