A witness has reported to MUFON a very bright orange light in the sky over Oceanside, California USA, 3 March 2021
The witness says "Very bright orange light appeared and hovered for a few minutes and would disappear and reappear. this would repeat several times and lasted approximately 20 minutes. no sound and the light appeared to pulsate. i have video of this."
Daniel Soto has posted a rather poor quality video showing a bright, star like object moving fast over Glendora mountain, California USA, on 16 February 2021.
Daniel states "Just witnessed a bright star like object at 6:02 PM. At first it looked like a plane flying west to east while I was listening to a voicemail. The light then stopped blinking and turned bright and stopped. Thats when I stumbled to get my phone to record and watched it do a fast dip that left like an orange trail. As I was following it I was able to start recording when it was hovering over Angeles national forest. Then it disappeared, as I was focused where I last spotted it, out of the corner of my left eye it appeared over Glendora mountain ridge rd. I turned the camera and was able to capture how it moved and disappeared. Not sure what it was, maybe a drone who knows. But it sure moved weird and it's not the first time I've seen phenomenon in the Glendora hills"
Analysis
A drone would really be the only object that would look and move in the same way as the object in the video.
YouTuber "Rob Cox" has posted a video showing several silver spherical objects floating in the sky over Salida, California, USA on 15 Feb 2021.
Rob states "As my wife and I were in our backyard on Jan. 30th, 2021, we saw several silver spherical objects in the sky. Only today, when looking at the footage again, did I notice that there was a disc-shaped object that sped back and forth into and out of the framed shot. I noticed the first one at about 7 seconds into the video. This has not been edited or adjusted in any way."
A report has just been submitted to MUFON of a suspect UFO sighting over a year ago. Strange multiple lights were caught hanging in the sky over Laguna Niguel, California, USA 7 Feb 2020.
The witness states "The six or seven lights were constant, not blinking, and appeared to be originating over water near Dana point. I was far away, but the lights were very unusual. there are military bases/testing in the area, but this still appeared awkward, i'm not sure what type of training exercise would look like this..."
This video was recorded from a phone of a sailor on a H60 Romeo Helicopters' Forward Looking Infra-Red camera, known as a FLIR. FLIR cameras are typically used on military and civilian aircraft, use a thermographic camera that senses infrared heat radiation.
The helicopter was grounded off of San Clemente Island, California on a 2 week training event. They were doing routine maintenance after shutdown for all flights when they saw the lights. There seems to be 2 balls of light in the distance, and when the FLIR locks on it speeds away so fast the FLIR can't keep up with it apparently.
Over the years, many eyewitnesses from the Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard have reported strange UFO activity off the California's southern coast, especially the area around the islands San Clemente and Catalina and now once again UFO activity has been recorded and this time over Clemente Island.
Analysis
The video shows 2 bright round "heat" objects. The image is similar to that obtained from looking at the rear of an aircraft, with the 2 bright objects being the result of heat from engine exhausts. It is slightly odd however that we cannot make out any other aircraft features or the exhaust plume, but this could be due to the range of the object with only the most extreme heat signature observable.
If the video was taken by a ground technician and not a trained FLIR operator, then they may easily mistake the mundane for unusual. They may also be unfamiliar with all the FLIR systems controls and so were unable to obtain a clearer image.
Conclusion - probably a jet aircraft.
A video has been posted by Youtuber " Antoni ENKI" showing what looks like a cigar-shaped object hanging in the air.
The object could be an airship or blimp, with the airships' control surfaces not being visible due to the distance involved. However, the object seems longer and thinner than an airship would be.
George Mendoza has posted a couple of videos of what looks like a bright, shiny object hovering in the sky over Jurupa Valley, California, 22 Jan 2021.
George says "Looked at it with my telescope and its a chrome cigar shaped object."
The object could of course just be something earthly on the ground catching the sun on the mountainside!
Lucia Luce has posted an interesting video showing at least 15 bright lights in the sky over the Pacific Ocean, off the California coast on 22 December 2020 . No more information is available.
