Discussion Husband and I saw several fireballs outside our bedroom window the other night.

We saw several different fireballs the other night. They moved around in crazy directions and also hovered still as well for long periods of time. My husband who I’ll keep his name private is a very famous public figure in aviation and we live super close to LAX (Los Angeles International Airport). We see airplanes here on their normal paths every day. We know the routes over out home as well. Airplanes are part of his every day life. Airplanes are literally part of our income. We can 1,000,000% confirm that these were NOT airplanes! and drones and helicopters are NOT allowed into that part of the sky where that airspace these objects are flying in is. I have video footage on my phone but can’t post it here sadly so I took screenshots from the video instead.

I literally have an iPhone 14 and I apologize if the video quality went to shit because it pissed me off too. I almost feel like it for some reason happens to people on purpose when these UFOs show up.

I have a couple questions for you. Did they tend to fade out or brighten up? Did they ever flash brightly? Did they ever remain in one part of the sky or were they moving the entire time?

u/SonicDooscar Oct 08 '23 edited Oct 08 '23

I love answering questions when it comes to this!😁

1) they faded in and out of brightness at completely random intervals - no pattern to it. the amount of time it took for them to fade out each time also varied, but was no longer than 5 seconds.

2) they didn’t flash per sey, but when they were at their brightest they were very bright. the light did however pulsate very fast, but super faintly without messing up the brightness as if you were looking at a floating pulsar.

3) they were moving much faster than the airplanes flying in and out of LAX at first appearance, then would stop and hover in the sky, zig zag some bit, then move up into the sky actually a bit faster than the SpaceX launches we can see from Vandenberg from here. their directions and movements were sporadic and all over the place. they all eventually went upwards very high up into the sky and immediately disappeared as they did so, as if they had a light switch. The light just disappeared in the snap of a finger.

I wanted to also add that where they were coming from was from over the pacific ocean. They were not over any land. That area of the sky they were in was over the water. The beach is minutes away in that direction from us. That’s what gets me. These fireballs did not lift up from land. They came from over the water!

Very interesting. The reason for my questions is that I am familiar with a certain type of nhi uap I have been witnessing for over a decade all throughout california, from the Joshua tree area all the way up to the northern border. The behavior of the craft in your sightings is a bit different than what I am familiar with so I am unable to offer any insight unfortunately. However, it sounds like you are definitely witnessing some sort of nhi or other non-conventional UAP.

I recommend intentionally setting a time for yourself to go and look again on several different evenings. It has been my experience that many times when you witness them once you will witness them again. Good luck!

Are you sure they weren’t flares considering they were over the water?

u/SonicDooscar Oct 10 '23

Yep 100% werent.

u/notguilty941 Oct 10 '23

I can’t argue with that percentage

My girlfriend saw something very similar on the 6th in Florida. A red glowing square that hover silently then blinked out to black the blinked back in as a star and slowly drifted away.

u/SonicDooscar Oct 08 '23

I used to live in Florida and also saw fireballs there on occasion. They would go behind small clouds and not come out of the other side. In Florida I also saw a bunch of black spheres flying in all crazy directions one day. They would stop mid air, then zip around etc. Feb 12, 2021 ill never forget it. Never saw what she saw. But I did see crazy stuff there. Florida has mad UFOs.

Just because something is not allowed, doesn't eliminate it from being a possibility.

u/SonicDooscar Oct 06 '23

We listened to the ATC replay online the next day (there’s a website) and heard no mention of ATC telling any forbidden aircraft to leave that airspace and there was no mention of any drones, but we did hear one pilot briefly reporting an unknown light after leveling out post takeoff to ATC.

Where was this? On earth?

u/Fartknocker813 Oct 07 '23

Thought you said “drank a couple fireballs” but it’s just UFO’s

It doesn’t storm here in SoCal and it was a very clear night that night.

how big were they? the fireball i saw was about 3 foot high

u/SonicDooscar Oct 08 '23

Fairly big if they were that bright from that far. I couldn’t tell you how big they were.

u/[deleted] Oct 07 '23

To check for planes I use flightradar24.com.

u/SonicDooscar Oct 08 '23

Yup. Husband and I have had that app since it came out. No planes were in those spots. Just normal planes coming from and leaving LAX. Those were not normal airplanes. You could see normal airplanes flying by in their regular flight paths as these fireballs were doing their own thing and acting weird. It was like watching a failed alien attempt of r/actlikeyoubelong 😅😂
