MUFON Case # 27051
Date/Time: 2010-12-15 23:58
City:    Manheim
State:    Pennsylvania
Shape:    Unknown
Distance: One mile or less
Summary: Strange lights, object moving very slowly and silently across sky   

Report:
I turned left off of Auction road went thru the covered bridge, turned right and saw an object in the sky. I thought at first a plane... looked a little harder and thought hhmmmm don't remember a cell tower being out here. Got to a stop sign right by the Spooky Nook Golfplex and I sat there staring in the sky at the lights wondering what it was because they were to bright to be a cell tower's lights. Sat there for a minute or two then the object began moving in my direction. Slowly too like 5 mph couldn't of been much faster than that at about 200 yards up or so (about the height of a cell tower) as it got closer I took out my cell phone but it's a piece of junk so I couldn't record anything

I cracked the window to see if I could hear anything but there was no sound ZERO noise and this was a large object, to wide to be an airplane. There were 4 large bright white lights and two blinking lights one blue the other red. It continued to move very slowly and silently across the sky and as it approached the highway it sped up effortlessly to around 50 mph or so. I just sat there shaking my head trying to figure out what in the hell that could of been! All I know is no known man-made aircraft can move THAT slowly and with no sound across the sky. Very very bizarre and I wish there was an answer for what that thing was other than U.F.O.

I've never seen anything like that and I wasn't on drugs, drunk or hallucinating at the time either!! I was relieved to hear that other sightings had occurred earlier that day but I haven't seen anything about lights at night.

MUFON Case # 27044
Date/Time: 2010-12-15 18:15
City:    Connersville
State:    Indiana
Shape:    Unknown
Distance: Unknown
Location: Farmland
Terrain: Hills
Visibility: Overcast
Weather: Snow,Light
Vallee Index: AN1
Summary: Looked like aircraft anticollision light, but bluish

Report:
There are actually two events which happened on this date. First, my husband saw a silver flash, much like an elongated straight line over a tree line to the east. This occurred at approximately 2:15 pm, while we were heading south on State Rd. 101. The second was even more perplexing. We were headed north on 101 and spotted a stationary glowing object, which we thought may have been over the Richmond area. Both of us thought perhaps it was an AirEvac going into Reid Hospital, but we are 30 miles from there and would not have seen something like that due to obstructions. As we made a left onto Dunlapsville Rd, enroute to Connersville, the "light" glowed a bluish white and seemed to have followed us. It was cloudy and snowing lightly, so doubtfully it was an aircraft. It was on a straight trajectory and when it was at my 5 o'clock position of the car, it glowed brighter and then was gone.

Insofar as the first incident is concerned, my husband also saw that bluish-white streak before and I, too, have seen it once or twice. They are pointed at each end and a little thicker in the middle. He has also seen a blackish type of "thing" over the treeline which would be toward the east and near Oxford, OH. Neither of us could explain what the glowing light was, either, as it was too cloudy to see Venus or Jupiter. Having a degree in Earth and Space Science, admittedly, I could not comprehend what it was we saw. Regarding our feelings, it was a real headscratcher.
