Orange Type Of Fireball In The Sky Over Springfield Illinois

Date:  December 31, 2012
Time:  Approx: 10:45 p.m.

Hi, I am writing in response to the multiple sightings of orange/reddish multiple orbs that were sighted from coast to coast last night December 31, 2012..

I am in Springfield, Illinois and was grabbing a camera out of my truck last night at approximately 10:45 p.m.

For some reason looked out to the sky and caught a glimpse of almost orange type fireball like orb. Never seen anything like them before. It hovered and seemed to float, but also increased speeds at times.

Then vanished. I grabbed my wife and she too was able to witness this event. We saw two, too bright for planes, choppers etc. They didn’t possess any beacons, and they were too prominent in their color/ brightness.

This was really crazy for us because temps were 20 degrees or so, and visibility was poor due to snow received. Whatever they were, they tuck out like sore thumbs in an overcast sky for about 2 minutes for us.

After hearing the other accounts. Glad to hear my mind is not playing tricks on me. We actually checked on web before New Years (cst) maybe around 11:00 p.m. or so, but no mentions or sightings as of yet.

Glad we checked back. Maybe were all not crazy after all. Just glad to witness the phenomenon!

Object Flashing Bright Red And Blue Over Springfield Missouri (The Star Sirius)

Date:  December 22, 2012
Time:  2:00 a.m.

Sighting near Springfield, Missouri at 2:00 a.m. A coworker and I witnessed a UFO while on lunch. It's seemed to have remained in around the same area southeast Springfield, Missouri.

It was flashing/shining bright light with looked like blue and then every minute or so would have a flash of red, not sure if it was spinning like the other light we were seeing with it. Very odd.

Large Bright Orange Object In The Sky Over Springfield Illinois

Date:  October 24, 2012
Time:  Approx: 7:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.

This evening, around 7:00 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. my husband and I were standing outside talking. I saw this very bright orange 'ball' coming in our direction, traveling south to north. It caught my attention because the 'ball' was so large and so bright. 

It was not moving real fast, but it wasn't moving real slow either. My first thought was it must be a satellite as I've seen those in the sky before, but I thought it was down to low to be a satellite. I then thought it must be a plane with it's night lights on, but I've seen planes at night. 

This was too low and the bright orange was too big. I said to my husband, 'look! what is that?'.  He said he thought it was a plane.  But then he added, "look how orange it is.  It looks like it's on fire."  I didn't hear any plane engines, so I asked him, 'Are you sure it's a plane?' 

After a few seconds, he proceeded to leave to go put gas in my car, but I continued to stand on our porch, watching it, until it was no longer in sight. We maybe had it in our sights for about a minute. I was thinking if it's a plane on fire, why was it still flying and shouldn't it explode or something? 

I positive it was not a meteor or a shooting star, as it was not moving that fast. I didn't hear any plane engines. In fact, but I couldn't really see a plane outline either. As I mentioned, it appeared to be traveling south to north in direction. 

I don't have any idea or pre-conceived notion as to what this may have been. I really don't believe in UFO's or aliens. I decided to run an internet search tonight, to see if anyone else may have seen it in the area, or if the news crew were reporting it. That's how I happened across your website. 

Hope this information is helpful to you, for any research you may be doing. Thanks.

Colorful Zig Zagging Object Seen Over Springfield Massachusetts

 

Date:  January 18, 2012

Time:  7:30 p.m. - 7:50 p.m.

 

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Round.

 

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Flickering red, yellow, white and orange, there was an odd object in the sky. My brother had called me to come look at it. He was already under the assumption, right off the bat it was a space craft.

 

There were tons of airplanes flying toward the object. It moved slowly north, as we were facing west. It was higher before I got outside, but it had moved halfway down in between houses and trees.

 

It went down in a zig-zag sort of path at a slow speed. It moved to each point with 2-4 minute intervals. It flickered, and we were positive it was no planet, for Venus was above us where we stood.

 

Planes were circling around it, and as it moved more, I could see it one last time and by that point, it had moved so far west(away from us) that it was like a little red dot.

 

The object was moderately large, so its disappearing was very noticeable.

We looked through binoculars and I even had my glasses so it magnified more. This object was crystal clear, it was a sphere-like object.

Time: 5:53 p.m.

I just Googled this, I too tonight just saw a white floating light that appeared to have some orange flashing light on the back, I'm in Springfield MO and I called my friends back in Hutchinson, KS and they saw it too so I knew it wasn't a plane. It was going East from the west slightly towards the south from the north sky about 10 minutes from this email.

Additional Information:

Pretty sure its the Space Station.

I found out it was the Space Station I had seen. The times for my area were dead on when I seen it here. The website is here, search your own area and see when you will be able to see it again and check with what you had seen. http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/cities/view.cgi?country=United_States®ion=Missouri&city=Springfield.

Highly Reflective Metallic Rounded Pyramid Springfield Ohio

Date: November 6, 2010

Time: Approx: 1:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Springfield Ohio. St. Rt 68.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of Objects: 1
Shape of Objects: Rounded pyramid.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Heading north towards Urbana, Ohio. Object appeared in sky directly above the International Harvester truck plant approximately 200 to three hundred feet above center of the factory. A reflective shimmering from the object, at first resembled the flapping of a bird's wings.

As the object moved out over the road and into the air space above and directly in front of me, I could see that it wasn't a bird, but a ten to twelve foot a side pyramidal object with what appeared to be a highly reflective metallic finish. They sky was lightly overcast and there seemed to be no indication of the cause of the shimmering.

The duration of the sighting lasted about five to ten seconds. I was the only one in the car, but I did notice a grey Chevy suburban in the southbound lane come to a stop as the object passed over us. The object then either cloaked itself or vanished into thin air and I continued on my way. As a postscript, I'd would like to make it known that this isn't my first UFO sighting and in recent months, I've seen so many that I am beginning to wonder if I am suffering from some sort of hallucinatory disorder.

Disk Shaped UFO Hovers Over Field Springfield Illinois

Date: March 10, 2010

Time: 10:24 p.m.

Location of Sighting: North Side of Interstate 72 a few miles before Hull/Payson Exit over a field north of the road
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of Objects: 1
Shape of Objects: Disk.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I was talking to my husband on the phone and looked to my right and saw what appeared to be a disk shaped object hovering in the air over a field. It appeared to be disk shaped, because I could see red, blue and white lights around it. I told my husband I was going to pull over to look at it and try to get a photo on my cell phone.

After I pulled over, I watched the disk for what seemed like a minute or so and then it started moving straight up and flew over my vehicle and flew to the southwest. I had trouble getting my phone camera to work and finally got a picture, but the object was pretty far away by then so I didn't expect anything to show up in the photo.

Later when I looked at the photo, there was a small round light to the side of the photo. Also, when I was taking the picture of the object when it was going southwest, I put my window down and could hear what sounded like a plane, but with an extra sound that was not familiar to me. I am familiar with the sound of helicopters as the hospital helicopter flies over our house frequently, and it did not sound like a helicopter. The lights on the side of the object appeared to be well defined head or tail lights and appeared only to be on the bottom of the object.

Springfield, Illinois Witnesses Watch Unknown Lights (UFOs)

Posted: May 29, 2008

Date: May 28, 2008
Time: 9:30 to 10:00 p.m.

HBCC UFO Research Note: From the sounds of it there may have been alot of folks who had witnessed the lights over parts of Illinois, if so I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who witnesses this event. You can contact Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research at hbccufo@telus.net or go through the website: http://www.hbccufo.org and file using the report form. Thank you.

Hi, my name is (name removed). I was wondering if you had any reports of anything over Midwest Illinois last night May 28 2008. I received a call from a friend in Charleston, saying he was seeing some weird lights in the sky. When I looked for myself I also saw these strange lights here in Springfield and someone in Rantoul also observed this also! It was a series of flashing lights northeast of Springfield. The lights first looked sort of like a meteor shower at first and then separated to just two flashing lights that were spaced out and weren't moving, just blinking! Just wondering if you have had other reports could you please email me back.

Additional Information:

This all happened about 9:30 to 10:00 p.m. or so. I and others did notice planes flying around the same area. Other people (military buddies) described it as unusual activity from the planes. The people in Rantoul and Charleston said it was north west of them and it was north east of me so that seems to me like we were observing the same thing. If I remember anything else you can bet I will let you know. If you would like to keep me informed please feel free to email me more info.Go ahead and just email me at (email address removed) I thank you very much for replying.

Thank you to the witness for their report.
