Has anyone ever seen a UFO?

I am seriously interested, out of curiousity. I am not a UFO enthusiast or nut case. However, last summer while camping at a remote secluded spot, the following happened. There were clear skies, no clouds. We were sleeping under the stars--no tent. After returning to my sleeping bag after going to the bathroom, and looking up into the starry sky as I slipped back into the bag, I saw an object zoom across the sky, stop in place for about 10 seconds, then zoom off in another different direction. It was too fast for a satelite or airplane, and it was not a meteor, I assume due the the sharp direction change. Everyone else in my group was asleep and did not see it. I have never metioned this to anyone in the group.

    It takes a brave person to actually allow himself to imagine the possiblity of other life beyond what we know. We only know what lies within this galaxy, but there are other galaxies beyond ours, other galaxies that we haven't discovered yet, may never discover. So if there is able to be life on our planet, why is it not possible for life to exist on other planets? So when was the earth created? What if another planet in another galaxy was created 500 years before ours? Possible? So then is it possible that we could be seeing some sort of vehicle from another planet in our skies? Why not.

    I saw the exact same type of thing when I lived in Maine. The light shifted really quickly like a shooting star but then was still in the sky for over a minute before it shot back the other way. I watched it do this all over the sky for over an hour. That's pretty much when my veiw on the subject change.

    Hey Kerry, Yes many, many people just recently saw the Ohare internaltion airport where a UFO was seen. I heard a specific testimony from a person that called into coasttocoastam.com and shared his experience to the whole nation that was listening.

    I have had many dreams and have seen flying space craft in those dreams of many different kinds and shapes.

    in one instance i beheld a WAR in heaven as Huge starships fell down to the earth all around me. the fact is I also beheld the terror in the faces of many poeople. If these were the destruction of entire planets and entire inhabitants was it the so called "sons of god" that will destroy all things that offend, or are they more like the Emporers Army in Star Wars. If what i saw was True! it was a warning that should be shared world wide, the warning is that they are COMING.

    also, for many years, i have carried a camera with me just perchance i would see a ufo andi could take pictures. well just last month I had another dream that I saw a ufo and did take pictures, i took video too, but i couldnt get the camera to work. Of course when i woke up LOL there were no pictures.

    I dont know if any of my dreams are true. im pretty sure some are downloaded by a futuristic technology. but i have heard testimony from Jim Sparks that he says Dreams do happen and that they are real.

    If you want i can send you an audio file.

    My mother believes she saw one once when I was a kid. My brother and I were at school at the time. But she just happened to look outside and see this cigar-shaped thing hovering above the houses across the street. It was metallic-looking and appeared to be covered with windows. She watched it for a minute then it took off and was out of sight in just a couple seconds.

    I remember, also when I was a kid, being outside at my grandmother's house looking up at the stars. There was this orange light that caught my eye. It was bouncing all over the sky and moving faster than anything else I'd seen. To this day I'm not sure what it was.

    UFO doesn't neccessarily mean aliens. I believe there are UFO's but it could be military experimental aircraft or other phenomenon. A reliable person who worked as a government contractor once told me that they are building things that won't be public for 20 years down the road.

    Stealth technology for instance had to be tested before most people knew it existed. How many UFO's seen in the 60's and 70's were just stealth aircraft? No one really knows.

    Yes. When I was young, I saw that same type of thing while watching a sattalite. There have also been more recent things within the past few years that I cannot explain as well, such as a large, silent, triangular shape passing in front of the stars, blacking them out. Either much to close to not have made any noise, or if it was further away than I thought, it was larger than any aircraft ever flown. Either way, it was not a conventional aircraft, as I ama trained observer and identifier of aircraft.

    Source(s): I think the government knows more than they're telling us. Though there's always the possibility that they don't even know what most UFO'S are, even if they're not telling us that they're not from Earth.

    Well, I don't know if it was an UFO or not but it was something... One early morning when it was still dark, my husband and I and our dog were traveling rural country roads (no street lights) and we both noticed a light following us. There weren't any stars in the sky either...it was cloudy. These roads were curvey and hilly and we even made turns. And this BRIGHT light in the sky stayed with behind us for about 45 miles...and then it just disappeared.

    At least one time that I am certain of. It was a very bright entity in a late twilight sky. Your story sounds very, very similar to mine. It moved in very irregular, zig-zag patterns and after I watched it for 3 or 4 minutes, it suddenly appeared to speed higher into the sky and disappeared. I have had less specific encounters that aren't so easy to relate but I am sure they exist.

    Yes. A friend and I saw something in the sky about 10 years ago that could not be explained. We watched it for about a half an hour.

    Don't be afraid.. but there is such things as UFO's. They don't mean us any harm. They're like us, they're curious. I mean seriously, do you think that the human race is the ONLY life form in this entire universe? I think not.
