Orange Orb UFO Encounter
Date: June 10, 2019, 9:30 PM
Location: Newcastle, Ontario, Canada
Hello everyone, I wanted to share an intriguing experience from a few years ago that’s been on my mind lately. My first encounter happened on June 10, 2019, around 9:30 PM. My friend and I were driving down a back road in my car, in a relatively rural part of southern Ontario. The night sky was crystal clear, not a cloud in sight. However, as I looked through my windshield, I spotted an orange light in the sky. The best way to describe it was that it resembled a ball of fire or an ember from a campfire.
The orb was at a moderate distance—close enough to see, but still far away. I initially thought it might be Mars, but it was clearly too close for that. On a whim, I decided to flash my high beams in Morse code (though I don’t actually know Morse code) just to play around with what I thought could be an aircraft. Surprisingly, after doing that, the orb suddenly moved straight up and vanished from sight, all within a span of about 45 seconds.
Fast forward about a month later—my friend and I were driving back from his place, located in an even more rural area. The road was completely dark, with no streetlights, and once again, the sky was perfectly clear except for a small group of clouds. As we drove, I began to feel oddly anxious for no apparent reason. Coincidentally, my friend mentioned he felt the same way. About 30 seconds after we confessed our feelings, we noticed orange lightning within a cloud. This lightning didn’t strike the ground like typical lightning; it remained contained within the cloud. We thought this was bizarre, especially since I had never heard of orange lightning before. My friend looked it up afterward and found that it’s an extremely rare phenomenon.
About a minute later, we saw an orange orb much closer than the first encounter. We exchanged glances and both recognized it as the same object we had seen a month earlier. I pulled over to get a better look at what was happening. The orb hovered above a tree line approximately 400 meters away and was about a thousand feet in the air. I opened my sunroof, and we both stood up to get a better view. Just as we did, the orb vanished in the blink of an eye. We searched the sky, but it was nowhere to be found.
A mere ten seconds after it disappeared, a quiet aircraft flew directly over my car. It was clearly a human-made craft, identifiable by the purple afterburner of a jet, which headed toward the direction where the orb had last been seen. At that point, we felt pretty unsettled, so we sat back down and drove off. I haven’t encountered anything like that since, but I’m grateful for the experience—it was one of the most thought-provoking moments of my life. If anyone else has seen or knows anything about these orange orbs or UFOs, I would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you!
That’s a fascinating account! Thanks for sharing your experiences with the orange orb and the unusual phenomena you encountered. It must have been quite intense, especially having that shared feeling of anxiety with your friend right before witnessing the orange lightning and the orb again. It’s interesting how both experiences occurred on clear nights and involved orange lights.
Many people have reported seeing similar orbs in different locations, and there are various theories about them ranging from natural atmospheric phenomena to potential craft from advanced technology. The connection you made with the silent aircraft flying right after the orb disappeared is especially intriguing—did it seem like a coincidence, or do you think there could have been a link?
As for the orange lightning, it’s indeed a rare phenomenon, often associated with certain types of storms, but seeing it contained within a cloud is something most people don’t encounter. If you’re looking for more sightings or theories, I’d recommend checking out local UFO and paranormal groups online. You might find others who have had similar encounters or have information that could shed light on your experiences. Thanks again for sharing your story—it’s always eye-opening to hear about personal encounters with the unexplained!
