The Enigma of Flying Spheres
Of all the various kinds of UFO related phenomena, which have materialized, the so-called light spheres certainly hold a particularly important place. These objects have recently gained greater popularity thanks, in part, to the studies conducted by Dr. Eltjo Haselhoff. According to his theory the light spheres could be the cause behind crop circles with which they have often been associated, but the spheres began to appear many years ago.
During the Second World War airplane pilots on both sides of the war reported on several occasions that they were flanked by mysterious light spheres during their missions. These spheres could execute maneuvers that would have been impossible for the pilots' airplanes. Their many attempts to out strip the spheres and avoid pursuit were unsuccessful and, in fact, the spheres often seemed to anticipate the maneuvers of even the most experienced pilots.
They appeared in all areas involved in the war from Europe to the Far East and it was soon clear that they were not secret enemy weapons. They were given the name "foo-fighters" from a corruption of the French word “feu”. The objects appeared to be glowing bright spheres in colors ranging between red, orange, yellow, white, and green. The instruments aboard the planes experienced malfunctioning when these mysterious craft appeared and once radar technology became operative the pilots realized that the craft were not detected by their radar devices.
The phenomenon of flying spheres begins to manifest during the second World War during the air attacks among American, English, German, and, of course, Italian and Japanese air forces. They all reported a presence of these spheres. Each of them thought they were secret enemies' weapons and so they were frightened, as they moved with great freedom. They could come very close to or move away from airplanes, almost passing between them.
The committees established by both the Allies and the Germans to investigate the phenomenon did not officially reach any serious result. Initially the pilots and their superiors were bewildered and, understandably, afraid that the spheres were secret enemy weapons. They later became accustomed to this presence considering it innocuous. According to the pilots' statements, the objects were filmed on several occasions, but the films have since been kept in secret military archives.
Footage filmed by random witnesses began to appear in the 1950s. These films show the objects both alone and in groups and images confirm the statements made by the military pilots. Amongst the first to suggest that these craft may be extraterrestrial was the Polish-American, George Adamski, the first and most famous of the contactee - that is human beings who come into repeated contact with beings presumed to have come from other worlds.
Adamski declared that these flying objects were remote controlled surveying probes that extra planetary spaceships had launched into earth's orbit for study purposes. Their shape could be spherical or disc like and their size could vary from just a few centimeters to several meters in diameter. He filmed a number of them in flight. Over the course of the years further films added to the wealth of footage showing these mysterious craft, giving a sense of continuity to their mysterious presence and origins.
In mid December of 2015 I was a passenger on a flight heading up to the East coast over Virginia. Very clear day @1400hrs. Suddenly while gazing out the window I saw a silver/blue sphere (size of a cantaloupe) trailing behind the starboard side wing for app.30 seconds. Totally caught me off guard. It was the most amazing and captivating thing I’ve ever witnessed. The sphere maintained a direct trailing path and distance of what looked to be app. 10-15’ behind the wing. At one point the sphere dropped straight down out of view and reappeared about 10 seconds later within the same area as prior. Finally within 5 seconds of reappearing and trailing the plane it looked as though it flew backwards and no longer was in sight. For the duration of the flight it did not reappear at least from my window view. Good to hear others have witnessed this phenomenon also. Hopefully someday we’ll be informed of what we had viewed.
During the 90's I was at a nephews home for a BBQ. He and I went out to the front of the house. All of a sudden out of no where in the sky above me appeared circles. They were very close to me I felt I could reach up and touch them. They were different colors light blue, pink and yellow in perfect rows. Then all of a sudden they were gone. My nephew turned to me and said did you see what I saw. We were the only two that witness it yet we were surrounded by people at the BBQ
I saw a perfect metallic looking sphere flying near my plane as I we were descending into Cleveland, Ohio. This happened in 2016.
In, 2005, my friend and I were at his family ranch near Gonzales, Texas. It was a clear afternoon and we were just sitting outside enjoying the day. In the distance you could see something in the sky moving towards us from our left. We locked our gazes on it as it moved at a smooth and steady speed in our direction. We made a couple of comments about what it could be. We had almost decided it must be a metalic type balloon that had escaped somebody's party somewhere. But, as it got closer, we could see that it was a solid, shiny, metal perfect sphere. The strangest part was that we realized that it was traveling quite fast, but there was no noise coming from it at all. Just steadily sped by almost directly above us. It maintained a steady speed and disappeared over the horizon in a minute or so.
I have thought about it and researched for years. There are other sightings of flying sliver spheres that have been recorded. They look very much like the one I saw.
I just left a comment above- Bernadette
I entered the incorrect date when we saw the spheres in Dickinson Texas. It was on my daughters Birthday- December 15, 2018. I put it was xmas day- that was incorrect.. I just spoke to her because she loved seeing it on her Birthday!! Sorry! I believe the dates are very important!!
12:00 minutes in documentary!
We saw about 8 of these beautiful silver flying spheres on Christmas Day about 4:30 in Dickinson , Texas. We know they weren’t a flock birds because there was a group flying by. These clearly stood out because they were like a group of bubbles flying in the sky and moved quickly and gracefully - dancing and following each other when leaving. Three of us adults saw this and looked at each other in amazement!! What a spectacular sight to see!
Me and my hunting buddy saw a beautiful "electric green" glowing orb twice the size of a basketball floating along 15ft above the ground in a creek bottom one night while spotlighting for deer. Looking through a Leupold 40mm scope set on 9 power, so I got a good close look at something that does/did not exist in earths known parameters made or natural, neon green "anything" was not even around. This was 38 years ago and is still vivid in my memory.
It happened to/for me, don't really care if you believe it or not. It's real. Wish I could see anything like that again.
When I was a kid I would open my bedroom window and lay in bed and look at the stars one night in 1986 I saw a big red sphere go over my house,I climbed out of the window as fast as I could but it was gone.
It made no sound and was as big as a car.
To this day I have wondered what it was.
Why does everyone Immediately assume that these things are from outer space or whatever? Probes sent by aliens to imvestigate?
To me the most logical and Obvious explanation is that they are just a form of life that we are not acquainted with, yet. Just like we discovered bacteria and later on viruses and Now we are able to map the genetic information of a sample and actually identify bacterial and viral dna, separate it from the human dna and see that there is about 20-80% of dna that we don't know which kind of a creature it belongs to (in you oe on you). Neither bacterial, nor viral or human. Something that is Alive and In Us but we can't identify it except by recognizing strange genetic information in the samples we may take from blood, saliva etc.
Also, considering that these creatures emerged shortly after the advent of flight... Perhaps it is We who are trespassing in their living areas and only made them curious?
Imagine a submarine in the depths of the deepest ocean. There must be swarms of creatures following that submarine around, observing curiously - doing exactly what I believe these orbs of light to be doing.
Checking us out, essentially :D
I had a white ball of light come down slowly and approach me once on a clear crisp night in Cheltenham UK, gliding smoothly through the air, stopping, then getting nearer again and stopping, then coming closer then changing direction and then stopping for about 30 seconds. Then in an instant it shot off up in a curved tick shape, diminishing as it went which took around 0.25 seconds before it was gone. The whole event was silent. Strangest thing I've ever seen.
The credibility of this film is damaged by the inclusion of images associated with George Adamski, a notorious fake. Nevertheless, the film is interesting and appears to include authentic footage. However, some of the comments and interpretations are suspect, especially the absurd claim at 32:48 et seq. that the film somehow shows what the people inside a passing airplane are thinking!
Can anyone whose followed this phenomenon over the last 20-25 years and therefore knowledgeable and familiar with these orbs - recommend any other websites, videos or fellow experts to contact, share and explore any new theory's or observations? I have a certain degree of understanding in this field, a variety of possible causes and evidence.
If we hope to improve on what we know so far then more liberally like minded thinkers are needed for our understanding to begin to actually predict where, when and the expected arrival / behaviour / modus operandi.
I saw one last night and I started filming after so the lens is clean. No light flares. Sad when People are so afraid to be open minded and think outside their box that they choose to assume to know everything even of others experiences.
These spheres are just what you usually call "drones". There is nobody inside and are controlled by vision...Simple but magic
Just witnessed sphere today during my walk by the mountain canyon near my home in San Francisco!! The sphere appeared clear, shiny glass or metal like , and it had an orange color I thought was the reflection sun, but color never changed with sphere's movement . I thought it was balloon but It's moves were calculated. It actually lowered it's self and flew down toward a grassy area with rocks, as if was going to land, then it flew into an area with several eucalyptus trees stand. I ran toward the area where I saw it was headed to look around but was unable spot anything in the area. Please let me know if any one else has seen these spheres in my area...need to know I am not alone.
Nobody can take away an experience from anybody, once it has happened. In a split second it took my fear of the dark away forever. I had that for 16 years!.If one have never encountered any of this sort..I just want you to know, you cannot just sit and think something is not real without having experienced it. The fact that mainstream science does not take it seriously, does not mean it does not exist. It is a shame..because we would have evolved in a whole different level than we are today. I am in a place of no fear.. In addition, I shared this to a guy I met some weeks ago. He said his girlfriend had a similar experience where she in broad daylight, in the middle of the streets in the city, saw a translucent sphere just passing by among ppl..She suddenly saw it appear out of nowhere..and disappear again. Yes, I am sure they are watching us and collecting data. They can change from visible to invisible..just like that.
I must admit, when I saw this documentary, my suspicion was confirmed. I was and still am looking for a specific doc, which was on tv after I had my close encounter with a sphere, confirming the same experience. I was 16 and in my bed going to sleep. I had just tried to overcome my fear of the dark, which I had since childhood that night by closing my bedroom door. So it was totally dark in my bedroom. For this reason, I was shaking and scared because I could feel something was in my room. While I was shaking, wishing that I could just jump up and open the door so some light could come in, I suddenly saw a sphere, translucent but with orange, yellow and red colours floating out of it. I was so shocked that I just glared at it. It just appeared out of nowhere in my bedroom. 1.5 - 2 m from the floor and 1 m from my head in distance. I don't know how it did it but instantly when I saw the colours slowly floating out of it, bright and clear colours, I calmed down. That sphere took my fear of the dark away..and I don't know why I felt the presence of something in my room but it was suddenly visible and it did no harm. I have never been afraid of the dark ever since. I can even go running in the park in the dark without fear. That was an act of love for sure. The sphere was transluncent, and I could see the edge of it which made the shape..it just looked like magic. I had to wipe my eyes several times with my hands in disbelief. Now that I have seen this doc..I am posive and 100% sure..it does exist. In my bedroom..amazing!.
its amazing that there are so many comments on each side of the fence, I was sceptical at first but the more research I did the more I was coming down on the side of we have been visited for many years if not hundreds or even thousands of years. once you start getting so many credible accounts from dozens of retired people from the military, defence, FAA and more there starts to become a pattern, it would seem that the US is one of the few countries that are still in 100% denial. France is now one of the leading countries on the matter of UFO's. there is more than enough evidence out there for anyone to look at and realize that we have visitors from other planets here. you might not agree, or it might scare you. but fact is there are enough credible witnesses out there that you would have to be very arrogant to think that as earthlings we live alone in this big ole universe.
Back in the early 1970s when i was 18 -19 i was working for the Oldham parks dept in England. Me and a coworker called Terry Were taking a break about 1130 am watching a plane coming in to land at Manchester airport 10 miles away. without any warning a small metallic sphere shot right under the belly of the plane, we watched it streak off into the distance. It left us both speechless. Some years later i saw that footage of the concord on TV with the sphere, however i remember footage being shown that was shot from inside the Concord also by one of the passengers. strange how that footage no longer seems available.
A few years ago as I was watching some sky divers dropping out of the light aircraft, I noticed a yellow gold coloured sphere some distance above the plane moving in the opposite direction to what the parachutes were slowly drifting. The sphere kept moving south-westerly direction until it disappeard behind mountain range. My hobby for the last 60 or more years has been astronomy; I am familiar with aircraft, satellites, weather balloons and other lights in the sky. But this yellow gold coloured sphere has left me wondering, what could it have been?
Seen another one the other night. This one was blue with a white tail. I have done some math. I figure where I was standing and the distance and it's size. My guess it would be about 60x60 feet. The next night my wife saw it in our backyard. She was about 10 feet away from it. She said it too was Blue. And about the size of a tennis ball. And then. Poof. Gone We are simple people. Nott looking for anything. If we are seeing them. Then it's just a matter time until it's on cnn. Then we will all know
In 2011, I was standing outside in the yard smoking a cigarette at about 5:00 AM. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, I looked up to the sky towards the Northeast direction. I saw something coming heading in my direction at an extremely fast speed, making no sound. Before i could even blink, this object flew overhead between 50 to a 100 feet above me and in a flash, passed me by and was heading in a southwest direction.
There was a thick cloud of what I want to call smoke but, it was really thick and it hung in the air for an hour before slowly dissipating or evaporating. I know fog and smoke does not take that long to dissipate outdoors.
The object was round, like a basketball, but approximately 5 feet in diameter, maybe 10. It made absolutely no noise whatsoever. Not even any kind of whistling sound. It looked metallic in construction.
I don't know if this was a drone of some sort or what, but it has always remained in my mind, wondering what the hell it was. The only reason i question it being man made was the speed it was traveling, the lack of noise, and that mysterious smoke like fog. And why was it only flying between 50 and 100 feet in the air?
The problem I have with this doc is that all sightings (some of which are on the face of it interesting such as the 'Concorde' sighting) appear to be taken as read without any critical analysis of the same. Once it got to crop circles (which are pretty much totally discredited) I just lost all interest.
Several decades ago (I don't want to specify the year) I read part of a page of a highly classified AF document on UFO's that was carelessly left open on a desk when the signer had to go to the restroom, The text of the exposed page concerned photon thrusters or photon thrust rockets, I can't remember exactly which. But this indicated to me that someone high up was taking this very seriously and conducting some sort of analysis. It was from that time that I began to believe that UFO's were not just a bunch of baloney.
I witnessed one of these in 1996 at a horse racing festival in Galway, Ireland. There were over 20,000 witnesses. It hung over the course for about 20 minutes before just disappearing. It looked like a little sun. People were chilled out and I only accepted what it was recently. And here's a film about them. Wow.
