UFO video 2011: Bright object hovering in the sky over Merced, California 3-Jan-2011

Latest UFO sightings 2011 – This UFO video was recorded in Merced, California on 3rd January 2011 between 9 pm and 1 am.
Witness report: Amateur video footage of a multi-colored, rapidly flashing UFO in the night sky in Merced, CA on Jan. 3rd, 2011 between 9PM and 1AM.

At quick glance, the object could have appeared to be just another bright star in the sky. However, after further observation with binoculars it was determined by several eye witnesses to be a multi-colored flashing object moving steadily to the west and further upward in altitude.

This object was viewed from Merced, CA (central valley / central CA) and appeared to be starting directly east (over Yosemite & further away Area 51) and then slowly migrating towards the direction of Chowchilla or Los Banos which is directly south-southeast. It also appeared to be between 33-45 degrees above the horizon.

Eyewitnesses also determined this object could have been part of either an equidistant triangle of 2 other similar objects or a larger pattern of pulsing orbs, but these were more difficult to locate with a video camera since they were perhaps further away.
The object was filmed using a JVC Everio camera using a tripod with 800X zoom capability on ultra fine image quality.

It appears to have twin white bright lights surrounded by a circle of colored lights rapidly flashing: blue, red, green, etc.

There was another similar sighting by other eyewitnesses on New Year’s Eve (2 days previous) in a similar location with similar flashing lights, but this object was seen hoovering and then moving rapidly across the sky to the north.

(Update 1/4/11): Seen again tonight. It appears to be fixed and NOT moving with the stars– sorry people who think it is a star!!!

There also seems to be several of these same pulsing orbs slightly apart in the sky forming some kind of pattern & also NOT moving with the stars. At dusk they appear to be co-mingled with Orion’s belt & then further in the night Orion’s belt rises above these pulsing lights.

These pulsing “stars/orbs” are much different than all the other stars in the sky. If it was just a star, then why can’t I get the same pulsing effect when I zoom at ANY other star?????? Also, why won’t these stars move with the other stars?????

  1. I always thought these pulsating lights were satellites. They pulsate because of their spinning motion and they are covered in a reflective material. (foil?)<br />Namaste

  2. Last night, here in Virginia, I watched the same flashing orbs and I was so amazed. It appeared next to the Orion star belt and definitely was not a star, planet, or a plane. Over about an hour, it moved slightly to the west. I can&#39;t believe what I saw. (you can also check out thetruthbehindthescenes.com)

  4. Hello i live in Fullerton California and i got up around 4am and looked out my bathroom window and saw the same disco orb.At first i thought it was a star but it moved a tiny bit then stayed in one spot and had multi colors.I watched it for about 20 min,then went back to bed.it was cool.This was today Jan 16th 2011.

  5. It&#39;s most likely stellar scintillation.<br />That doesn&#39;t mean it&#39;s a star though. At the right viewing angles sunlight reflecting off of a satellite, might produce the spectral effect. Depending on atmospheric conditions, certain wavelengths of light might become filtered and subject to a prismatic effect. Thus the rapid color change. I see this type of thing on a weekly basis.

  6. that video discoball i have seen one of them to and two ufos when i was little but if i hade a cam then i will have tape it but it was many years ago but i am a beliver 🙂

  7. We&#39;ve been seeing this exact same thing in the sky here in Maui, Hawaii. We thought it was the NASA guys on top of Haleakala playing with lasers or something, but it&#39;s been there for several nights now. If it was an UFO, why would it be there night after night? Would love an educated explanation for this…

  8. today is 2-11-12 and me and my son seen something on the wast side of merced ca i cant explain what it is, but its been there for the pass two days
