UFO hovers 100 feet in the air — witnesses flee

Source: Dateline Zero

Two witnesses report seeing an object hovering only a 100 feet in the air. The object was very noticeable over a wooded area at night, because it “was shining a light down into the trees below.”

The sighting occurred at 1am on November 29, 2011, in Midpines, California. [map] The witnesses submitted testimony with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database later that same day.

The following is quoted from the witness testimony, edited for clarity. You can read the full, unedited sighting report HERE via the MUFON reporting center.

At about 1:00 in the morning, my friend and I were sitting in his truck on a hill top in Midpines, CA. We were both in deep conversation paying little attention to the darkness of the woods outside when I noticed some lights come around the mountain in the distance.

At first it registered in my mind simply as a car coming around from the side of the mountain and I thought to myself: “Oh, I didn’t know the highway was right there.”

Interrupting himself in conversation, my friend then suddenly said “look at that!” He pointed towards the lights, and I realized they were suspended in the air and actually flying/hovering, moving in a weird up-&-down, side-to-side motion.

The lights were orange that seemed to circle around the craft, or at least move from right to left down the side of the craft and a blue light that stayed in one place.

Completely shocked out of our minds, we both simultaneously opened our doors and got out of the car, not once looking away from the object. At this point it seemed to have stopped moving and was shining a light down into the trees below it (which seemed to be less than a hundred feet below).

It remained there for the longest time, 10 or more minutes; so finally we had to get back into the car because it was freezing outside and we were shaking uncontrollably from the cold and the fear and excitement.

By time we were in the car it seemed the object may have descended into the woods below because all I could see was a much dimmer version of the lights close to, or on, the ground. Scared out of our whits, that’s when we left.
