UFO over Indiana Pennsylvania (near pittsburgh)

[dougkinzinger]

Hi everyone,

I must say as I am writing this I am kind of freaked out...

tonight I went to throw a can in our recycleing bin it was around midnight, and the bin is in the back of the house... usually I just throw it in the bin from the door because it is right by the door, but for some reason tonight something drew me out of the house to do it. When I came out of the house for some reason I walked over to the end of the proch (about 5 feet from the door) and out of the corner of my eye I saw this bight object a few hundred feet it appeard in the sky... i thought oh a plane so i turned to look at it because I like seeing planes at night they are kinda neat... but i thought to myself as i saw it out of the corner of my eye... wait somethings not right its not blinking... how planes usually blink diffrent colors on their wings and such... and it was just hovering there... so i turned twards it to look (this is about a span of 10 seconds) and when i turned to look at it about 5 seconds into the stare at it hover it was like it knew i was looking at it... and suddenly it droped straight down behind the hill (there is a hill off in the distance about half a mile and it has trees all over it) i got a little scared at that point because that was just wierd... i knew it couldnt of been a helicopter because they dont move a few hundred feet in half a second straight down unless they are crashing and yet that is still fast at that point... so i turned away for some reason and it poped back up like it was plaing hide and seek with me... i got freaked out and went back in our house... i looked out the front window and it was there again hovering... but once agian when i looked at it... it droped down behind the hill and trees.. i stood there in shock for aboug 5 minutes then all the sudden it quickly poped back up in the air and the strangest thing happend... it grew from a relatively big spot of white to this bright yellow/orange fast flickering oval shape about 20x as big... and as it did that i got this sudden head ache that lasted from when it got big to about 30 seconds after... which when it stoped it just disappeared like vanished in air...i dont know what happened... so i ran to wake up my parents (im at their house) my sister and her boy friend.. we all stood there stareing... they started making jokes i was seeing things then all the sudden about 10 minutes into the state out the window it appeared again.. this time we all saw it.. it did the same thing agian hovered and hid.. but the wierd thing.. this time when it came back it kinda snuck back from behind the hill and hid in the trees... we could see it behind the trees hovering (keep in mind this is about half a mile away) we stood there shocked for a while and it disappeared again... i called the state police and reported it the said another person just reported a similar thing in the same area when i was talking to them... then the odd thing that happend all the sudden it showed up agian but this time this trail showed up behind it kinda like a firework trail looks like as it flys up in the air.. but this trail just stayed there for about 10 seconds then just vanished.. we were really confused at that point... the last time we saw it tonight while stareing my mother and I saw it jet off in a diagonal pattern (before this it was just up and down) and it vanished... we stood there for about 30 minutes after and nothing...

I must admit I am scared as heck... and not much scares me... I cant even sleep tonight, im honestly scared to... it's 4:18 in the morning right now.. this happened around midnight :\ you can see how I feel just from that... I am a religious person, and I'm telling this to you with God as my whitness that this actually happened tonight... I don't think I could be more frightened then I am tonight... I have always believed in this kind of thing and always wanted to see one to prove it to myself they were real.. but after tonight, I wish I never would of seen what we saw :(.....

Oh man. Another wacky post in Area 51. It wasn't a UFO. Go get some sleep, friend.

Uhhh doug, then what was it?

[ShaneSparky_YYZ]

I seen a picture like that b4.. almost exact.. hmmm.. oh well :p

I do believe in UFO's tho, I mean think about it, do u all think us humans are the only human life form out there in the universe? lol.. I'm sure there is another with the same or better attributes on some other planet or galaxy.

[AcdShdw]

i hate close minded people, come on were not the only things out here ya know, even if its a tiny plant on some planet billions of miles away that would still be life too, an alien life infact, now how hard is that to believe

[Hell-In-A-Handbasket]

Say no to drugs, mmkay

[kjordan2001]

Uhhh doug, then what was it?

See my post ;) Don't make me flashy thing you :ninja:

[imtoomuch]

There's nothing to be afraid of. Aliens are harmless. Seriously, they are. I've met one... :rolleyes:

It kinda looks like a street lamp...hmmm

[xortex]

well, if this is around the indiana area, camp atterbury is a very wonderful place with all the ufo ****, cause where i live is right across from the base, and they fly stealth bombers all the time and those mofo's can fly around like you are saying, and all you see is a little light they have, its pretty freaky to see, but stealth bomber cant rule out the possiblity of UFO :alien:

[neufuse Veteran]

well I never said alien at all! i hate how people assume UFO = Alien.. I kinda think its military but who knoww what it was... it was freaky and 5 of us saw it and a few others reported it to the state police... so it wasnt just me

[ThePDW]

Agreed, that light does look almost exactly like one of the lower ones, particularly if you do a little analysis with Paint Shop Pro. I still believe him though... :alien:

Let's suppose that this *was an extra-terrestrial life form... There should be absolutely no reason at all to be scared. Any society advanced enough to have technology like that supposed by UFO buffs, would no doubt be here merely as scientific observers. Imagine a BBC or National Geographic crew in africa, they come, they observe, but they do not touch or interfere. There has been much made of abductions and so forth, but I would say that all such cases are false, they would have no need. A life form that has to follow the same rules of physics as us could also create machines similar to say, our MRI's, thusly no need to swoop and anal probe, just scan away : ) *If life forms on other planets have arisen that are interstellar travelers, they should be viewed with a great deal of warmth, not fear. And let it be said that if these were as petty and as vain as humans, no doubt they would have pulled an independence day stunt long, long ago.

[ThePDW]

Just because things are smart doesn't mean they aren't evil! I think youd be a little shaken up if not scared if you had the same experience :blink:

[Athlon7]

Also, I probably should have thrown this in...

Don't leap to conclusions about this being of alien origin. There is a strong tendency to jump to conclusions about what we wish it were, rather than what it could possibly be. The odds of spotting a craft of alien origin rather than of military or natural phenomena origin are vastly smaller. One's imagination also plays tricks and you can literally see what's not there, or your memory enhances it due to your being excited.

I think it would be really neat if this were the least likely explanation, however I'd really want to see much more of that video, and figure out how long this went on and so forth. Still, thanks for the post. You never know, you could have spotted the real deal, or you could just be hallucinating ;)

Thats was suppose to be our little secret :angry:

Why would he be hallucinating?

That's a pretty good story.

It's too bad your picture's a fake.

Your 'ufo' is comprised of the exact same pixels as the largest streetlamp, minus a few red pixels from the top (which I imagine you blurred out to give some semblance of difference.

Yeah, I thought his looked a little too much like the lamps.

[unimatrixzer0]

*puts on black suit*

There was no alien, and the flash of light you saw in the sky wasn't a UFO. Swamp gas from a weather ballon was trapped in a thermal pocket and refracted the light from Venus...

cheese :|

Hard to believe that in all the universe that we are the only ones in it. There has to be something out there......

Weren't there some reports last week of some strange light cluster that was seen. I read it on the news. It was a set of lights that were unidentified and something like they were undetectable to infrared. I dunno......I haven't found much info on it and I can't find anything in the news anywhere on this either.

Pretty cool tho, I believe it that what you seen must have been something not from here.....keep your cam handy!

This is the link about that CNN UFO LINK

Well...

Let me just say that I have seen (and heard) more weird things in the sky. I cannot say all of them are UFOs (although some of them could have been bona-fide UFOs). In my country (Singapore), you hardly can see anything in the sky thanks to all the high-rise buildings and bright lights we have here.

However, I did see something before which I don't really know whether it's a plane or UFO. (by the way, I live near a small airport, so they could have been planes, heilcopters, whatever) When I was much younger (way before Neowin and the internet existed, I think), I saw something in the sky which was travelling sliently in the sky. It was flooded with mulit-coloured lights. At first, I thought it was a plane or something, but, as time passed, I began to wonder if that was really a UFO.

More recently (a few years ago), I was on the commuter bus going home. It was quite late into the night, by the way. As the bus exited from the expressway (our version of highways and freeways), I caught sight of some light hovering over the town up ahead. I knew it wasn't a star or supernova (we don't get them in our skies here), and it was also moving quite a bit. When the bus came to the spot where I believed the light was hovering over, I saw some really strange craft that I really think is a bona-fide UFO (although somebody told me that it could very well have been a helicopter). It was sort of in the shape of a cross or plus sign, and there was some bright spotlights shining down from the craft (two, if I was not wrong). I also saw some flashing lights on the craft, between the spotlights. Later, when I was further away from the spot, I noticed the same "light" I saw much earlier flying across the night sky, and then disappearing.

Too bad I don't have any photos, or I could have shown them to all of you here. Any possible explanations?

im not trying to freak you out, but ive been having bad dreams about aliens recently. actually since i was a child ive had bad dreams that aliens would invade earth. these dreams actually continue where the last one left off and these are years apart. i also experience lucid dreams and have had on occasion OBE's. i know i sound like a freak but whatever i dont care what most of you think. i'm not trying to be funny and i dont joke around about serious matters especially when people are genuinely concerned. i can understand your fear and im gonna recommend a book for you to read that helped me understand more about why we are here. You can find it on amazon and im not some lacky trying to advertise this book. its called Talking to Extraterrestrials by Lisette Larkins. the book cover looks really cheesy but this is one of the most well written intelligent books ive read. i have read islamic and buddhist texts also but this book really changed my life. im a religious person in that i believe in god but i also believe that intelligent lifeforms exist on other planets. i mean seriously, you gotta be totally ignorant to think otherwise.
