Masontown, Pa. – 21 March, 2013 – Approximately 8:15 PM. The witness was sitting in his house watching TV with his son.  The curtain on the window was open allowing a direct view outside.  A light caught his attention coming from the window.  He saw a light, best described as a small glowing ball through the glass. Both he and his son saw the light. It was about 6 feet from the window, in front of a large tree in the yard. His thoughts were that someone was in his yard shining a light into the window.

Fearing a possible break in or other intrusion he went to the den and armed himself with a gun and a flashlight before going out the side door to confront the intruder. His son continued to watch from inside.  Upon turning the corner of the house he shined his flashlight toward the ball of light. It immediately shot straight up into the sky and vanished. His son witnessed the same from inside the house.

Both witnesses were interviewed and gave the same account of the events. More in-depth questioning also brought out a few more details.  The object was described as a solid, glowing sphere, not simply a light source. No other detail could be seen, although both said it had well defined edges. It was about 10 – 12 inches in diameter based on comparison to the tree trunk diameter. The position was well below the horizon as seen from the window, thus confirming its nearby location.

When asked about how it moved both witnesses said it had little to no movement until it shot into the air.  At that point it was still seen as a rapidly moving sphere, not a beam of light.  Several branches of the tree extended above the object’s location.  Neither witness could definitively say whether it went through the branches or between them, however both said the direction upward was direct with no discernible shift as it moved through the tree limbs.

Weather conditions were mostly cloudy, Temperature in the 30s at the time. No sound was heard, nor any other effects noted.  No physical evidence was found after the sighting.  A follow up contact 25 March, 2013 provided no additional information.

Huge Circle of Lights Observed in York County, Pennsylvania

March 14, 2013-6:28 AM

Wrightsville, PA-York County, PA

A man was doing some computer work at about 6:28 AM on the morning of March 14, 2013, when he noticed a series of bright lights through a nearby window. The lights seemed to be moving quite slow and were low in the sky caught his attention. His first thought was that it was an aircraft but as he looked through the window, he soon realized that this was something unlike anything he was familiar with.

What he observed was a perfect circle of approximately 12-15 bright white lights, most of which were steady and non-blinking.  At the right and left side of the circular pattern there were two lights in those areas that did pulsate different colors such as green, red, blue, and yellow.

Upon seeing this, the man yelled to a friend to come quickly to see what he was watching. According to the witness, the object was very large and comparable in size to a commercial jet liner. The object was moving very slowly and it took about 15-20 seconds to pass by a window that was only about 3 feet wide. The witness could not understand why he was unable to hear any sound from an object that large in size and at such close range.

The object was estimated to be about 300-500 feet in altitude and approximately the same distance away from the observers. The object took about 20-25 seconds to move over an area that was about 2 football fields in distance as it passed the window then moved beyond the trees. The object was observed as it moved northeast toward the direction of Mount Joy in Lancaster County,which was across the Susquehanna river.

The witness I interviewed said he was certain that others in the area had to see this object since many people were on the road at the time. The man also told me that he had never seen anything like this before, and did not believe in UFOs until now.

Mystery Luminous Sphere Moves over Pittsburgh

March 9, 2013-About 9:25 PM

Penn Hills-Allegheny County & Greensburg-Westmoreland County

Two people were stargazing from behind their home near Penn Hills a suburb of Pittsburgh, on the evening of March 9, 2013. It was a very clear night and many stars were visible. Suddenly one of the observers yelled out to the other person. Both then observed what was described as a very large, blood red colored ball, moving across the sky from roughly southeast to northwest.

The object was roundish with a darkened red center and brighter red on the outside sections. The object appeared to move to slow for a meteor, and had no trail behind it. The silent object was observed for about 7-10 seconds. One witness commented that it was, “slow and big.”

At about the same time, another man who lives in the Greensburg area of Westmoreland County, was looking through his spotting scope at the clear sky trying to locate the comet recently discussed in the news.  As he looked towards the west through his scope, he observed a reddish-yellow solid looking ball.

The man said the object suddenly just appeared from out of nowhere while looking through the scope. He commented that it was as though someone turned a light bulb on. The object did not streak fast across the sky like a meteor. The man followed the object with his scope for about 10 seconds before the light as he described it went off.
