Strange dark object caught floating over the mountains of Markleeville, California, USA on March 14, 2021

Witness states "Sunday, march 14th at approx. 1900 i stepped out of my snowcat to stretch, noticed object in the corner of my eye. thought it was maybe a bird, but it was way too big, so i grabbed my phone and started to video the object"



"There was no sound coming from object so that eliminates a plane or helicopter. it was too windy for glider or paraglider. a significant storm was rolling in that night and the object maintained its path. 

i could kind of see a mist or aura around the object, especially in the video. it seemed like it would level out or turn 360 degrees back and forth and was moving as it was flying. 


 as you can see, i was in a valley so if there was sound, i would have heard it. there were no lights but appeared to have some of aura and path. this video was taken just before sundown as the time had changed that morning. 

march 17th, days later, around 2100, i was in my snowcat at the highest point of the trails i groom when the speakers in the snowcat started to crackle and music started to mesh with itself. i was listening to a downloaded song on my iphone since there was no service out there. 

it was a very calm night when suddenly, snow and wind abruptly surrounded my cat. this continued for about a minute and then went back to being calm again and music went back to normal. this could have been a coincidence, but i had a strange feeling."

Shiny, floating object over South Yorkshire, UK - observed by at least 2 witnesses in different locations, 28 Feb 2021

The same strange object has been spotted and recorded floating over large parts of South Yorkshire, UK by 2 separate witnesses in different locations, on 28 February 2021.

 

The first video was posted on Facebook and shows the object spinning and floating over Rotherham South Yorkshire.The witness says "we was at home when we saw something in the sky we quickly grabbed our camera and started to film, you will not believe what happened and what we caught on camera! 100% real!"


 

Next, a similar object was spotted over  Carcroft, South Yorkshire approx 17 miles to the north east. The witness took video and actually made a report to MUFON. 


 

The witness gives a details account of the sighting "The object was stationary above my property for approx 25 minutes. we first observed it after seeing a helicopter pass below the object. the helicopter seemed to not notice the object at all. 

The object was seen as three vertical bright lights at first at around a mile high. it wasn't until i observed it through binoculars that i could see that it was y shaped and made up of 4 shapes. a reddish tictac shaped middle section with two struts sticking out of the top at angles, with a goldish orb atop both struts. 

Underneath the tictac was another strut with a silver orb attached. the whole structure was metalic. with the sun reflecting from it. with a bright light on each of the orbs which was visable when it turned its sides towards us. making it look like a lighted straight vertical line. 

it remained stationary, but after 20 minutes it rapidly moved a short distance from right to left. hovered for a while. before then quickly moving again from left to right. it then slowly rose vertically. before suddenly shooting upward vertically at very high speed out of sight. 

i have attached a video of the object which is of poor quality because of the sun glaring onto the screen. i might add the the weather was very good with blue sky and little cloud to obstruct view. also attached are close ups of the object as clear as i could. the object appears on the right top side of the video as a small white dot which will indicate to you the height it was observed towards the end of the sighting. i would love to hear your opinion on what you think the object is."

 

Analysis

For the most part, this sighting may have been explained away by a metallic party balloon, perhaps in the shape of a number or letter floating in the wind.  However, the wind that day could not push a balloon from Carncroft to Rotherham. There was a light Northerly wind that day, and to get to Rotherham would require a North-Westerly wind. We don't know where the object was first spotted. If spotted at Rotherham first, then the object would have to go against the wind which a balloon clearly cannot do.


Conclusion - unknown

Unusual "morphing" "objects caught on video during both day and evening time, Makaha Oahu Hawaii, 7 Feb 2021

 A YouTuber "Sky Walkertexasranger" has posted several videos showing unusual aerial objects over Makaha Oahu Hawaii, 7 February 2021.

 

They say "This morphing craft appeared just over the hilltop from North Shore area. It came down slowly and started out gliding down almost like a bright glowing white hang glider, except we determined it wasn't a hang glider when we noticed the points were moving in and out of its center and there was no person attached hanging below.. then it was like it took off this wider pointy veil (except nothing fell to the ground) and turned into a dark but reflective metallic ball. 

Sometimes it would go so dark tho, that we couldn't see the reflection of the sun on it for a moment. Really bizarre. It hovered slowly down lower where we could clearly see then went behind the building for a minute till it re-emerged and was still doing all these interesting things that did not seem physically possible. 

It would emanate bright blue-green plasma light flashes from it that were brighter than the sun. It blared through the clouds and also had a wider glowing halo around it, then it would turn dark again, and back and forth in a random pulsating rhythm which seemed like Morse code. 

Sadly I only caught the last bit of it on camera but the 6 of us watched it slowly and silently morph by for about 6 minutes. I know its kind of hard to spot at first but its towards the lower middle of the screen. I can zoom in much further on my phone but I'm not sure how I can get the video on to YouTube like that. Let me know if you have any skills or tips on that! Most explainable, thing I've ever seen in my life. Caught a second one a little bit later"


 

Then, the second video

"This is the 2nd of the two UFOs my friends and I saw on 2/7/21 at Makaha Beach on Oahu in Hawaii. I have never seen anything quite like these before. It was amazing" 

"The first was at 5pm (still sunny, sadly my phone was scrambled when it was really close. They both came down from just over the hilltop from North Shore area and curved up towards the mountains. They flew by pretty slowly. We watched the first one in complete awe for about 6 minutes before it blinked in and out of visibility. 

It went off into space. It did not fly towards the airport or Pearl Harbor. It did not take a typical flight path for planes in this area, nor did they look, sound or behave like planes or any drone I've ever seen. 

The videos don't even do these things any justice.. This one didn't seem to be shapeshifting like the first one, but it did glow with an aura that was completely out of this world. There were no wings, winglights or taillights, and no sound".


 

Analysis

Sadly, the videos don't really show any of the things that the objects were claimed to be doing. The videos just seem to show a round object floating along, with the usual suspects coming to mind, balloon, drone...

Strange, multiple flashing objects moving towards the ground over Yreka, CA, USA 3 Feb 2021

A recent Reddit video post has shown what looks like multiple flashing objects, floating towards the ground in Yreka, CA, USA 3 February 2021.

 


The witness states "I watched it for a few minutes before I started recording, thought it was balloons at first, once I saw them going up and down decided it was something else and pulled my phone out, after I stopped recording a 2nd set of light came in and they were flying in close proximity then the first set went on the other side of the hill and didn't come back as the 2nd set flew off to the left"

Magnified section of the full video shown here;

 

Whilst the witness is concentrating on the objects along the sky-line, more objects can be seen in the bottom right-hand corner of the video, amongst the trees. 



One commentator says "it's along the side of steep terrain. Going up and down doesn't rule out balloons. They get caught in thermals and bob around. Paragliders use thermals along mountain ridges to get nice long flights. Birds use them too."

Whilst another comments "This is a really weird one... I want to say it's caused by the reflection of something, maybe mylar balloons. But rewatching this a couple times, I'm sort of doubting that's what this is. Even though the movement itself certainly behaves like balloon following an air current, the way they "flicker" in and out, how rapid and electric it seems, has left me sort of dumbfounded"

Full video here >>

Analysis

The objects do look metallic, perhaps rotating with reflected sunlight causing the flashes. Their motion is reminiscent of balloons floating to the ground.

Conclusion

Perhaps they are several metallic helium balloons, released from a party, finally coming back to the ground?  What do you think?

Diamond shaped object floats over the city of Medellin, Colombia, 20 Jan 2021 - Eerily similar to previous sightings.

You-tuber "Chop chop" has posted a couple of videos showing a metallic diamond shaped UFO floating over the city of Medellin, Colombia, and actually floating down behind some buildings. 

 

 
"Chop chop" states: "This is a real footage of a UFO sight from my apartment in Medellin, Colombia. This video was taken by me with my iPhone"

 
 


Analysis

The object is very similar to a previous videos from Medellin on 24 December 2020,  Bogota, Colombia On Dec 31, 2020 and even one from Mexico on 13 December 2020. Are these the same object? Why Colombia? Is there a prankster in Medellin releasing balloons?

Dark floating object over Tláhuac forest, Mexico 11 Jan 2021

Jaime Mauricio Becerra Morales has posted a video showing a dark object floating in the sky near Tláhuac forest, Mexico 11 Jan 2021. 

 


He claims "The UFO landed on land about 800 meters from my house Hera in a diamond shape the colony is called tempiluli". There is no further information. 


Analysis

This is yet another video showing what could likely be a balloon or similar blowing along in the breeze. What is peculiar is that at one point in the video, the object seems to speed up for a second or two then slows down again - this could be as a result of a "glitch" in the recording on his phone however. It would also appear that there is very little wind.

Black Object Over Royal Palm Beach, Florida, Jan 3, 2021

Eyewitness states: Black cube shape about 10ft length/width/height with apparent exhaust on one side. 

On January 3, 2021, I was exiting a department store located in Royal Palm Beach, FL, at 6pm. I had just finished shopping with my 10 year old son when I spotted a dark, cubed-shaped object, moving slowly from the west towards a north/northwest location. I immediately filmed it with a somewhat unsteady hand as my son and I were standing on the edge of the street and we had packages that we were keeping an eye on. 

Still, I was able to follow it until I lost visual as it seemed to be lowering its altitude and lost it behind the store. It was at around 500ft away, give or take. It had what seemed to be some sort of dim light on one side and it appeared that it was some sort of propulsion and it seemed to show some rotation motion. There was no sound coming from it. As soon as I lost visual I jumped in my car and started driving behind the store but couldn’t see it anymore.


Analysis

The object certainly has the appearance of a bag or slightly deflated balloon. The object does seem to be moving quite swiftly as if in a strong breeze, but looking at the trees in the foreground of the video, there does not appear to be much wind at all. 

The witness mentions a dim light on the side - this could be the remnants of the burner from a Chinese lantern

Unknown Daylight Flying Object recorded over Oshawa, Ontario, Canada 27 Nov 2020

The observer sates "I was driving north on Simcoe Street in Oshawa, when I spotted this UFO. I pulled into a plaza and started recording, it was amazing. I have been a UFO believer since I was 15, and I couldn't believe my eyes. I finally saw one and I'm 57 now; it was worth the wait!!! What we see here is a metallic-object with an unusual shape. You also see a blinking light as the object appears to come toward the ground."

 


The object appears to be of a shiny, metallic construction with an angular-spherical shape. The object does appear to move just like a balloon would.


 

What is interesting is that the object looks very similar to 2 other recent UFO reports, one "two floating orbs" from Washington DC, USA and the other "Pilot captures metallic spherical UFO flying near plane"

Strange 'stretched circle’ jellyfish spotted over Norfolk skies?

Kevin Folan, 64, was driving through Oxborough towards Downham Market at around sunset, when he sighted a “strange, stretched circle in the sky”. 


Mr Folan said he pulled over to the side of the road to look at it properly, and took several photos.

“It was very slowly moving with the wind it seemed, from the west,” Mr Folan said.

“It was very dark but the clouds in the sky were light. It wasn’t a cloud.”

Mr Folan watched the object “kind of infinitesimally changing shape” for ten minutes, and posted the pictures into his family’s WhatsApp group.

One of Mr Folan’s nieces suggested it could be a flock of starlings.

“If I had to bet on anything,” he said, “I’d say it would be birds, but I’ve seen murmurations up close and this was a long way off, so there would have needed to be thousands of them to maintain that shape and density.”

Another suggestion is that it was a damaged weather balloon.
