Unusual bright light captured hovering over Tampa, Florida, USA, 22 April 2021

A video has been posted on YouTube by "ilham bintang" showing a bright light hovering in the sky over Tampa, Florida, 22 April 2021. 


Ilham says the video was taken from Zephyrhills in the morning, looking west over Tampa.

 


Analysis

One YouTube commenter suggests the light is the moon through a gap in the clouds. A quick look on Stellarium shows there was no moon in the west in the morning. Its not the sun either, as the sun rises in the east.

The light looks stationery, but if we overlay a frame from the start of the video and compare with a frame from the end, we can see that the light has moved slightly.


 

If we line up these 2 stills so the clouds overlap, we can see that the light has still moved, so the object is not as a result of a gap in the clouds.

 

 

So, this could be a real object. It is strange that this is the only report however.

Strange lights in the sky over Kerhonkson, New York, USA, a UFO hotspot, 9 Feb 2021

A lady from Kerhonkson, New York recently contacted a local newspaper with a image showing a strange light in the night sky. 

  

The witness states "The emailer tells us the photo was taken with the timelapse function on an iPhone 11, around 9 pm on February 9th, 2021 in Kerhonkson. They also explain that they watched the light about 15 minutes and then went inside. The light was still there by the time they went inside." They also say "there was nothing in the sky and no noises accompanying the light."

UFO sightings have been well documented in the Hudson Valley over the years, with  hundreds of people reporting objects flying through the sky in the late 80s and 90s.. There have been episodes of shows like Unsolved Mysteries that focus on the burst of sightings in Dutchess County years ago.

Most recently, CBS Nightly News made a visit to Pine Bush as they looked into a "credible" Hudson Valley UFO sighting in Orange County.

Analysis

Often, lights in the sky are as a result of light projections from the ground below. Perhaps there was a festival or grand opening of a shopping mall or casino?

Strange flying lights in the sky over Geoje City, Gyeongnam, S Korea, 15 Jan 2021

Reporter Kang Gyeong-guk = An unidentified flying object (UFO) was photographed above Geoje, Gyeongnam, and interests are gathering about the authenticity.


Heo Tae-won (45), who provided the drone shooting video, said, "The planes appeared and disappeared for about 30 minutes in the air near the apartment in Junggok-dong, Geoje-si between 6 pm and 7 pm on the last 15th." It was spinning around in place and then suddenly disappeared.”


Heo remembered, "I have witnessed similar scenes twice in the same place before," and "There were a lot of people exercising around, but I couldn't hear anything, so I didn't care."


Gimhae Airport Aviation Corps said, "There is no record that the vehicle has received permission to fly during that time period."

A maritime official said, "If you look at the video, it doesn't seem like a normal aircraft or a helicopter," he said.

Strange objects in the sky over Coonian, Co Fermanagh, N Ireland, Jan 2021

Cllr Sheamus Greene reported a couple of ‘close encounters’ with literal UFOs, unidentified flying objects, in recent weeks. It all began a few weeks ago when he spotted a strange orange glowing object in the skies over Carrickaheenan view point, near Brookeborough. Cllr Greene said he had been driving home when he noticed a strange light in the sky.


 
“My bus run was finished that day so I stopped and took the photograph,” he said. “Then I saw the orange light in the sky and it was in the photo as well, and I just thought, what is that?” He added: “Without a shadow of a doubt, it was a UFO, because the definition of is unidentified flying object. It definitely wasn’t the sun, if you enlarge the photo there are three orange lights a wee bit apart.”


The weirdness doesn’t end there either. On the very next day after he spotted the first UFO, Cllr Greene discovered a local picnic table set in the same area completely wrapped in black plastic. Baffled as to why, Cllr Greene contacted the council department responsible for the table. Strangely, it was not the Council who wrapped the table. “I’m as baffled as anyone else by it, it’s very spooky. ” he said. 

Then, last week, Cllr Greene was walking near in the local area when he spotted yet another unidentified object flying in the sky, this time in daylight.


“One person said they had seen these lights, and one of the quotes sent to me was that possibly that plastic was put on the bench to stop you looking up as it’s a view point,” he said. “Then they ended the message very spookily by saying ‘tread carefully’.”


 
All in all, though, Cllr Greene conceded: “It’s a bit of light relief. I’m not taking it all too seriously.”

Daylight object spotted hovering above Ayrshire hills, UK, 2 Dec 2021

A mysterious UFO has been spotted hovering above snow-capped hills in Ayrshire. 

 

The foreign object was spied hanging in the sky over Galston earlier this week. The man that captured the intriguing image, who wanted to remain anonymous, said the UFO was bigger than a drone. Taken on 2 December 2021 Saturday afternoon, the man is now trying to find out what the unknown object is.

And at the time the picture was being taken, the man admitted that he didn't actually see the object until he reviewed his photos at home. 

The man told says; “I was taking a photo of the hills behind Galston, which were covered in snow, and never realised I'd snapped whatever's in the photos until I got home and had a better look at the photos of that day. I never noticed it, at all, until then, it was late afternoon, say 3.30ish, and I noticed I put the post on Facebook after 6pm. I never saw or heard it moving, as I said, never noticed a thing in the photo until I got home...fascinating.”

Chances are the man just captured a bird in flight.

Bright light in the sky over Frenso, CA, USA on 1 Jan 2021

"Ferocious Anglers" has posted a video showing a moving bright object in the sky over Frenso, CA, USA on 1 January 2021. 


He says "Was doing maintenance on my rides I started to walk inside and seen this. At first it was moving and had four lights I didn’t have my phone so I ran inside. As I was going inside I can see the four lights coming together. Flares do burn long but I guess I was just to tripping out on it."


Dark floating object in the sky over Brasil, 1 Jan 2021

Frederico Müller has posted a video showing a dark object high in the clouds over Pouso Alegre-MG, Brasil on 1 January 2021. 

 

He says "Strange dark object at high altitude, filmed at 5:50 pm on 01.01.2021, in the Alto Ibirá neighborhood, in the municipality of Pouso Alegre-MG. The object was stopped for a long time and then followed an irregular trajectory until it disappeared into the clouds."


The object is too far way to get a good view. It behaves just like a balloon would, so we can assume that is what it is.

Mysterious pink glowing 'UFO' seen in sky hours after huge fireball crashes near town, Tibet 24 Dec 2020

Bizarre footage has emerged of a pink glowing object suspending in the dark sky just hours after a huge fireball fell from space. The clip, which went viral on social media in China, left witnesses baffled when they saw it on the highway in the city of Delingha of Qinghai province across the Tibetan Plateau on December 23.

In the video, the bright pink-hue UFO appears to be stationary as the motorist drives on the deserted highway.The object seems to be glowing around a sphere and it can be seen from various angles in the nearby area.

Many viewers said it resembled a moon but some said the light gathered like a cloud formation.

One said: "Isn't there an alien base in Delingha? Maybe they are returning to the base?". "What is this?" another asked. "This is close to that famous 'alien ruins'!"

A woman told a local newspaper: "This is not a moon, it's more like a cloud, a glowing pink one. "It stayed for 35 minutes to 40 minutes and disappeared."

This incident came just 12 hours after a mass sighting of a glowing meteor plunging towards the city of Yushu, somewhere 700km south of Delingha.

The fireball was seen emitting a bright white light while passing above the towns.


It was also recorded by the China Earthquake Networks Centre, which said on social media that it had reports of a suspected bolide - a form of a very bright meteor - landing between Nangqian County and Yushu County at 7.25am on Wednesday, December 23.

There are speculations that the glowing pink light could be emitted from the bolide but experts have yet to identify it.

Lights in the "sky" Rosarito Mexico, 10 Dec 2020 - UPDATE

The following video has been posted by Rodolfo Zepeda overlooking Rosarito Beach, Mexico on 12 December 2020. The grainy video apparently shows several bright lights in the sky over the ocean which eventually fade away.

 
 
 
 
Analysis

We cannot see the horizon and although the lights look like they are in the sky it is also possible they are actually on the ocean, and the lights could be from fishing boats.

Update - The boat theory was presented to Rodolfo  - his reply "That is right next to the coastline but they'd be smaller lights and much lower. I will post a video today of a time this happened and my dog was freaking out"

Conclusion - undetermined

White Disk Shoots Out Of Cloud Over Argolis, Greece Dec 12, 2020

Not much is known about this video. It would appear that a random video of clouds was being taken when just by chance, a white object is capture shooting out from behind the cloud. We must ask what the observer was doing taking a random video of clouds? Possibly fake?

Two hovering white lights seen in Poland and Turkey

Two separate reports have been made of two white lights hovering stationery in the air, one from Poland and the other report from Turkey.


"Today at 1pm, while standing in the parking lot of the Gama store in Bukowina Tatrzańska, I noticed 2 strange objects in the sky. First thought: balloons. But it was strange that despite the light wind, the objects stood still, and even the clouds were moving. Later, the objects, keeping the same distance to each other all the time, moved in relation to each other like two ends of a compass. It was very high up and without any sound. No drone I know behaves like this, it does not fly so high and is not visible from such a height"

 At the same time, the following video was posted by Erkan Özdede from Turkey. The exact location and time are unknown.


 
 
Could these be the same two objects?
