I must say I have only told this story to a few people, and am always nervous about what they may say.

In 2001 My girlfriend and I were traveling from Phoenix to Las Vegas along highway 93. It was probably around 12 or 1 in the afternoon, broad daylight. We weren’t tired yet and were enjoying the lonely drive. While I was driving, I noticed some small buildings and structures coming up on the right side of the road. That’s when I looked up and saw a white tube/cylinder shaped object about 80-100 feet up in the air. It was motionless and I assumed it was sitting on thin stilts because it was so still. As our car got closer I saw that it was indeed floating in the air.

My eyes and brain trying to comprehend what I was seeing, I pointed at it and yelled “what is that!? what is that!?” to my girlfriend. Her reaction was sedate, she says “Oh, I’ve seen those before, they have them all over the place on the airbase.” My girlfriend was in the Airforce Cadets as a teen. I said again “What is that?! How can it float like that?!” Again she was sedate and basically told me it was “no big deal.” We had driven past it at this point. I wanted to stop the car, but she convinced me not to, and I forgot about it. Her reaction and what I saw always make me feel uneasy when I think about it. I have been thinking about this event a lot lately and that is why I have decided to submit it. Sometimes I feel that perhaps I can not trust my own memory, or maybe someone else has seen it?

Story: Occurred : 6/15/2008 13:00
Location: Kingman, AZ
Shape: Unknown
Duration:10-15 minutes
Overwhelming sound and vibration with no craft visible.

Unfortunately, my wife and I did not record the exact time and date of our “sighting”, which was really a “hearing” or “feeling”, as we at no time observed a craft of any kind, not that we didn’t scour the sky to identify what we heard and felt. The time of day would have been mid-day in June or July of 2008.

We have been hesitant to report this “sighting” as we haven’t heard of any other instances where no actual craft was seen even though the sound and feel of the presence of a craft was unmistakable. It was either close to noon, or possibly 1:00 PM and we were doing some clearing of our property in the eastern foothills of the Hualapai Mountains, approximately 16 miles east of Kingman, AZ. Our location was at an elevation of 4,125’.

To explain the “sighting” is difficult, as it started out as a noise, which we were used to hearing in that area, as military helicopters, usually in threes, occasionally fly over our property, from west to east. Having served in the Marine Corps, I am very familiar with this sound and usually stop what I’m doing and locate the choppers in the sky. This was totally different. The sound was of something absolutely huge. We could hear it approaching and stopped what we were doing to locate the “object.” As it neared, the sound became almost deafening until it became a feeling that literally shook the ground. I was walking all over the area searching the skies for an object. When the sound became directly over our heads, it remained for some time, as if hovering. Our only guess was that whatever it was, it was somehow not visible to the naked eye, or as we assumed, “cloaked.” At this time, there was no point in moving around, as I had searched every available spot in the sky for an object, to no avail. After what seemed an eternity (actual time in the vicinity of three or four minutes) it seemed to move on, slowly, as it had arrived.

To date, we have not heard of any other instances of a “sighting” with no apparent craft observation. We’d love to hear if anyone else has had this experience, but have no idea where to start. I’m just very glad that my wife and I shared this experience, as I have not or would not share this experience with anyone else for fear of being considered “whacko”, or prone to over imaginative. We just had to finally share the information with somebody.  We’re very curious to hear from anyone sharing the same “experience.”

We lived in the countryside of Clovis at the time of this UFO sighting. Back then it was acres of  land, and forests of orange trees. I was around 13-14 years old, now I’m 26. I never thought in my life I would get the chance to see what I saw that night. I have seen UFOs on TV and books, but never believed in them. I was like everyone else, always thought it was fake. But I never imagined this close encounter, and that night is still in my mind to this day. I told family members but they don’t believe me. I don’t really care if they don’t because I know what I saw. I’m happy that it was me. If I could go back in time to that night, I would have woken up somebody, like my mom, and maybe… just maybe… people would believe me. It happened like this…

I don’t remember the exact day or year, but I think it was June of 1996. I remember it was a warm night around 2am. The first thing that I heard was a loud noise  (like a earthquake) with a high pitch. I thought it was an earthquake, because it did the same effect like in the movies: pictures on the wall were moving and the floor was shaking. But something was different about this. Suddenly it stopped. I felt like somehow, something in my head told me that there was something over the house. The sounds lasted about a minute, so I got up and started my way to the bathroom which was about 8 feet from around the comer. While in the bathroom, I heard a scratching sound coming from outside the bathroom window.

That caught my attention so, I looked up and there it was!  There was a tree about 3 stories high, and a disc shaped UFO had scratched the bottom of the ship, to the tip of the tree branches. The UFO had a light at the top, and several lights on the side. There were no sounds (nothing period) coming from it.  The thing was floating in mid air and moving at 1-3 mph. What was special about this was that it was searching for something.  I don’t know what, but I know it was searching for something because there was an extra light on the bottom of the ship and it was moving.  As the light on the bottom was moving, I noticed that there was spot light on the ground as big as the UFO. When the light on the bottom of the ship was moving,  the spot light on the ground was moving also. It seemed like it was trying to find something on the ground. So I know that it was searching, and not just flying by.

There was no light beam coming from the UFO, at all. I remember this for sure, as it was the most amazing thing I ever saw in my life.  This UFO was big.  The thing that shocks me the most was that there was no sound coming from it as it was moving away. I watched it fly away and I asked myself,  if this could be real… did I just see a UFO? I have seen sightings of  UFOs on TV,  and some are close to what I saw that night, but the lights are different in a way that I don’t think they are real. You can see the lights on the side of the ship. If I would have walked out that night, who knows that would have happened. I know they’re out there. This might sounds crazy, but I know what I saw. And if one day humans can read memory, I would gladly be the first to test the machine out and then people would believe me. Well, that’s my encounter with the UFO. Thanks for reading and I hope to see one more before I die. I’m sorry to all who do not believe… but to those who have seen one, it’s a life changing moment you will never forget.

It was a couple of days ago, around 8pm. I was looking out of my window and there outside there were these big bright lights. At first I thought it was a plane, but I soon realised that a plane has red flashing lights.

This wasns’t a plane. Then suddenly, it vanished! Just like that, it went, very soon after I saw this thing in the sky… hopefully I shall see it again soon!

I was in the house this evening and my friend was looking out of the window and saw an orange ball slowly gliding across the sky. She called me and my husband to see it.

This was a very weird thing to see it was like a ball of fire with a bright glow around it. The glow looked an unusual shape. I have never seen anything like this before. We watched it for a good few minutes while it was slowly gliding east to west across the sky.
