On a quiet morning in Kelseyville, California, I found myself witness to an extraordinary aerial phenomenon. At approximately 4 AM on May 15th, 2021, a silent red-orange orb appeared high in the sky, cruising steadily at around 25,000 feet. Its striking color remained constant, casting an unblinking glow against the darkened horizon.
This mysterious sphere, coming from the north, maintained a steady elevation and speed as it sped up and turned eastward. Despite its clear presence, it emitted no sound, and unlike conventional aircraft, displayed no navigation lights. The eerie silence and lack of any audible engine hum deepened the enigma.
Compelled to interact, I signaled with a strobe flashlight, but the orb gave no response, its glow unwavering. To add to the perplexity, a check of flight radar at the time revealed no aircraft in the area—no trace of this celestial visitor on any known radar detection.
This encounter was brief—only about two minutes—but it left a lasting impression. Such silent, glowing spheres challenge what we understand about the night sky, beckoning us to question: What truly flies above us when the world sleeps? For UFO enthusiasts and skeptics alike, experiences like this spark curiosity and wonder, pushing the boundaries of possibility and belief.
