Another Witness For The Orange To Yellow Object Over Iowa City Iowa (Diagram)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  August 26, 2010

Time:  Approxamtlty 9:35 p.m.

Yes, I saw this object while leaving my mother's residence at about this time on this date.

See the attached (crude) drawing based on my recollection.

I saw an orange light or orange circular object, traveling roughly from south to north in the northeast sky, on a course that was very regular and smooth, at a speed that would be consistent with a satellite.  The diameter of the orange object was 2-3 diameters larger than Jupiter, which was also visible.

There were no associated twinkling lights of any other color.  There was no "trail" or sound associated with it.  I have seen many satellites at night in the sky, and I know the difference between a satellite and a airplane.


This caught my eye because it was not clearly one or the other.  A guy who was walking his dog at the time (at about the intersection of Mormon Treck Avenue and Walden Road) also stopped to look at it, so it was clearly something unusual. 

I could not track it all the way across the sky.  In other words, I did not see it from horizon to horizon.  I lost it (or it "disappeared") while it was still high in the sky.

My guess is that this was some sort of atmospheric lensing of a bright satellite.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Round Flaming Orange Objects Over De Witt Iowa

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  November 23, 2011

Time:  7:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 3

Number of Objects: 4

Shape of Objects: Round with orange type glow/flames around it.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I am a sky watcher and have been for years and I know what’s up there. I can spot satellites, meteors, space station, aircraft and I know the difference. This evening I saw something special. I went outside to let the dogs out and as usual, I look up. 

To the west of our house just about the tree line, I saw to bright lights, thinking that there where two general aviation aircraft flying formations, but then I noticed that there where no navigation lights, just a glow. I measured the distance between the two objects and they where separated the distance between my index finger and thumb. 

They where traveling from west to east and as they got overhead they started to fade. No sounds. I know they where higher then commercial traffic overhead because at the time of the sighting, there were several aircraft overhead and the objects where higher and traveling at a speed, just a little faster then what we see air traffic over head. 

The objects tracked on a true heading to the east with not deviation and as the light dimmed I could see some type of object, kind of like how satellites look in the night sky. It’s not over yet, not more then 2 minutes later another object came into view. 

This time I got my wife and daughter to check this out. I also got my binoculars and camera. They thought I was crazy at first, but then we all agreed that it was something we have never seen before. Behind the third one about what I call about 10 miles, only because I know that airliners cannot get closer then 5 miles apart in the air way overhead, was another object, same level, same brightness, no sounds. 

The object I viewed with my binoculars looked like some type of fire ball without the flaming tails, just a glow, you could see the flames on the third object. No flame like a candle or anything I have ever seen. The last one traveled the same course, on the same track as the previous object. 

I do have some video that I took with my camera if you would like them. There is not much to see, but you can hear what the viewers had to say.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Bright Orange Light Over Cedar Rapids Iowa

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  October 31, 2011

Time:  7:20 p.m.

Saw the same thing last night here in Cedar Rapids IA. First it came from the East and slowly faded away. I thought it was Chinese lanterns. 

Then it came back 10 minutes later this time from the west. Hundreds of people were out at the time we saw it which was 7:20pm.

Anything come in that explains what this is? Thanks.

Brian Vike’s Note: The witness referred to a report found at: http://unitedstatesufo.blogspot.com/2011/03/orange-light-over-marshalltown-iowa.html

A Red/Orange Glowing Ball Of Light In The Sky Over Southeast Iowa

New Sighting Report !

Date:  Early January 2021

Time:  Evening.

A few nights ago, as I was taking my dog outside waiting for her to finish her job, I noticed this red/orange glowing ball.

It was traveling from east to west, no sound and watched it until it disappeared behind the western clouds. It appeared about the size of a large orange, but have no idea how far away it was. 

We live in Southeast Iowa and was surprised that a number of folks have seen something similar.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Flaming Ball Of Light Flew Over Eldridge Iowa


Date:  December 2, 2019
Time:  Approximately: 4:30 p.m.

I saw a big flaming ball going across the sky in a downward NE direction Monday around 4:30 pm in Eldridge, Iowa. 

I didn’t hear any sound but it appeared to be headed for land. It looked to be East of 61 & headed over LeClair Road.

I do not know what it was. Would have thought someone else would have seen at that time especially in such plain view of the highway.

Thank you to the witness for their sighting report.
