two orange fireballs, a small one right behind the large one, two nights in a row same time
I was a teenager living in Geneva Switzerland. We lived in a 16 story apartment at the top. My bedroom window looked out over Mt. Blanc and the Alps. I had severe insomnia so as usual I was awake around 11:30 every night. I was in bed, and heard an unusual dull roar or rumble so i sat up and looked out the window. My immediate reaction was "oh no, there goes Italy" because what looked to be a HUGE meteor followed by a smaller one was crossing the sky and went down behind Mt. Blanc.
Nothing happened. No explosion, no bye bye Italy. I looked all through the newspapers and tv news the next day and nothing was mentioned. That next evening I was laying in bed as usual and was remembering what I had seen the night before. At the same time of night, I again heard the same dull roar, again sat up and watched the exact same orange fireball with the smaller one behind it take the same trajectory across the sky and go down behind Mt. Blanc. When i saw it both times it was going from the Alps over near the "Aiguilles du Midi" or past there,heading SE towards Mt Blanc and went down behind this tallest Alpine peak.
One thing that has become of further interest to me is that a family member who was at that time very high in US government dealing with aviation and airspace matters came to visit us. He was doing a conference in Geneva. This was very soon after my sighting. He came into my bedroom the morning of the conference and asked me if I believed in UFO's. He then proceeded to show me some photos the gov't was looking into. He said he was a part of this and part of his job was to question air force pilots who had seen them.
I am not at all sure of the month or year this happened as it was a long time ago. It seemed to be summer as i don't remember snow or heavy coats around.
I've come to think the timing of that was interesting. I also think it is interesting that orange fireballs are now being seen in this country.

Hemisphere Hovering the bus stop
Concerns: UFO sighting of November 1975
Dear Madam, dear Sir,
My mother made in November 1975 in Pully (SWITZERLAND, VD) an observation I would like to share. I am his son.
She was born on October 13, 1941. She gladly stand at your disposal for an interview if you wish.
Here is the observation : Date: November 1975.Th exact day is not known. At 19:00, it was already dark, she left her home to go to work by bus (Cloakroom at the Municipal Theatre of Lausanne). She descends a sloping avenue (Av. Rennier) to get to the bus stop at Place de la Clerg1re.
The Lake Geneva is facing her. Going down this avenue, she saw in the sky in the direction of Geneva (southwest) a very bright spot, like a star, but with a much higher light intensity. She continued to go down and she realized that this spot has gained in size and intensity. Intrigued, she tried to follow him, but the houses and trees obscured her vision. Arriving in the square, she observed, vertically a hemisphere shaped object, still, about thirty meters above the ground. The object made no sound. Its dome looked metallic, while the underside of the object is flat and diffuse a very harsh light, cold, blue white, like "fluorescent tube". She estimated the diameter of the object to 4-5 m. There were no cars or passersby. Then after a while she estimated at 30 seconds (hard to say), the object accelerated to a meteoric speed noiselessly toward the northeast. She went up the Avenue to see the object flying away, in vain.

Historial Case :
Nous sommes en 1976, alors que j'étais de sortie avec deux amis en vélomoteur, il était 22h00, lorsque soudain, en-dessus de l'école que je fréquentais, j'ai vu descendre du ciel, en-dessous des nuages, une sphère lumineuse blanche qui s'est immobilisée au-dessus du toit de l'école. Mes deux amis l'ont également vue.

There were 3 lights over the church of metzerlen, I thought guys are lamping around. suddenly i remarked that the lamps shine from top down and move like a circle. Then it was there same position over the church for 15 Min, then flew SW slow over clouds.
1. I was a insurance broker and went to see my girlfriend by car. It was windy and very cloudy, very strange, never had that weahter after like a storm that does not begin. Rain dropped every 30 sec a drop, this for hours at this evening/night. I came by car and saw the 3 lights over the church. first i thougt guys playing with lamps around. then i noticed that the lights came from top down (beam angle of a lamp)!!! i stare at it about 15 Min. no other car passed no persons available on the streets it was like estinct. And the weather was so strange like never before like a thunderstorm that does not start, windy and very rare rainy drops during this time.
Suddenly the lights were gone from the position of the church. and i saw them seconds ago hovering over the clouds again the 3 lights. The special thing was, that the lights rotatet and all 3 lamps rotated as well, like a circle, really strange. and i think at this time no helicopter would start or even was used at the border to france from the gouvernment, military or the border police. I mean 1991 a long time and the techniques were not that high like today.
So I saw the UFO (more the lights, because I could not identify a object behind the clouds but it was grey darked nighting, hoovering away from the church and really slow motion like gliding over the clouds direction to France over the hills direction SW (Rodersdorf). The object stopped at the hills againg some more seconds to replay his circle lightning for about 30 seconds, then slow motion like flew away, so I could not see it anymore. I tried to contact friends, which lived there, they just asked me, what did you drink??? well at the end i must say nothing, of course, but it was more than mysterious...
Hope you can use that and please do not hesitate contacting me if you have more questions.
Best regards

Dark grey, metallic, elongated seven sided polygon shaped Object with lights observed over Rheinfelden, Switzerland in summer of 1996
It was mid August 1996 in Rheinfelden, Switzerland. I was at home watching tv in my living room. My mother was visiting and we both saw mysterious lights approaching from the west at a low altitude which we thought might be low flying aircraft. Planes do fly over the area, but never that low. We went outside to get a better look. The object was travelling silently at a slow, constant velocity as if surveying the area. Because of the complete absence of any sound, we both thought it could be air balloons. As the ship came in closer we were both surprised and shocked to realise that it was a huge, dark grey/ black, metallic craft of some sort. It had a strange shape like an elongated seven sided polygon. There were white or light green lights at each angled point and a couple in between. Beneath the craft in the centre was a light that seemed to be moving, rotating or spinning haphazardly, possibly a smaller craft beneath the main one. The main craft itself did not hover or spin, but kept on moving in an easterly direction at an altitude of about 200 to 400 feet. My mother said she also observed lights in the fuselage area, but the shape of the craft above its base could not be determined. We lost sight of it when it was eventually obscured by cloud cover. I have never read or heard anything in the media or internet about this strange sighting and I have never reported it until now. A number of other people in neighbourhood also seemed to be observing the object from their balconies. We were not able to identify the huge craft, what it was remains a mystery.
Perhaps there is a connection, perhaps not, but two days earlier my partner at the time witnessed a ball lightning incident in the same living room from where I first saw the lights of the UFO approaching. A very bright white orb shaped light appeared in the top right hand corner of the room for about 10 seconds before suddenly vanishing. There were thunderstorms in the area at the time, but not in Rheinfelden.

15 to 20 lights hovering in the night sky over Lausanne, startling enough that people left their meals mid-way in the restaurants to come and see this
Hi,
I (together with 50-100 people) had witnessed a major UFO sighting in Lausanne, Switzerland in 1997, and it still mystifies me to this date. What is most surprising is that I am unable to find any reference to it on the internet and so am writing to you in the hope that you would be able to investigate.
The year was 1997 and I was doing my post-graduate studies in an internationally acclaimed institution in Lausanne that year. I am from Asia ans have since gone back to live in Asia, it was only that year that I was spending in Lausanne. It was in the later half of the year probably in Aug or Sep. It was a Saturday night, and had gone out in one part of Lausanne with some friends. I then left that part of Lausanne and was walking to another part of Lausanne where I was meeting some other friends.
Suddenly, I saw hundreds of people who had stepped out of their restaurants and looking in the sky. This was near the Lake Geneva shore and the area was an upmarket one with classy restaurants. The people witnessing this were all urban, well educated and well-off people. I looked up in the sky and saw somewhere between 15 - 20 lights hovering in the sky. They were fairly low in the sky and hence could be seen clearly, ie no room for doubt on maybe eyes playing game on us etc. The closest one could think of the lights was a formation of military aircrafts, but they couldn't be aircrafts because they were just stationary and making no sound. As I mentioned, it was so unique that people eating in many restaurants there had all come out of their restaurants half way through their meal to witness this. After a few mins, the lights moved up into the sky very quickly and disappeared in the same formation, perfectly synchronised. I myself am a well educated person in senior management, and not one prone to believing in unexplained phenomena. This was a very clear incident of unidentified flying object with no room for doubt.
Unfortunately, none of my friends were there. I expected this to be reported in the newspapers next day. But the newspapers were all in French and I don't know French at all. I asked some of my friends who knew French whether anything was mentioned in the newspapers, and they said no. Those days of course, the internet was just in its infancy.
For years now, every now and then, I search the internet to see if this has been highlghted anywhere, especially in specialist ufo sites like yours, but surprise not to find anything. I am hoping you have associates in Lausanne, Switzerland who are able to talk to the locals there and find out. This took place in an area called Ouchy, that is just by the lakeside. There are a clutch of restaurants on Avenue Willaim Fraise very close to the Movenpick Hotel.
Thanks

Object was really slowly hovering over the houses with two bright lights.
I was celebrating Helloween with my friend, as we walked down one of the accommodation's street around 10p.m. Suddenly two bright and big cones of light appeared. The light was warm and I saw that there were big headlights on the object. I wasn't scared, and just watched this thing hovering by very slowly. It hovered on a straight line, from east to northeast. It was dark and I just saw those big cones of the headlights over the houses. I guess, the object had an altitude of at least 200 meters. But I guess not over 1 kilometer. I can't remember any sounds coming from the object. I lost the sight when the object left behind a huge tree. After the tree the object did not appear again.
I actually don't know if my friend saw this thing too. I guess he did, but I can't remember it.

Triangle with 3 lights flying close over the street Rue Auguste Bachelin
I was sitting together with my wife in the livingroom of my apartment at Rue de la Cote in Neuchatel Switzerland. My wife sat under a side window of the room from where you can see the Rue Auguste Bachelin.
It was already dark outside an there were nearly no cars in that road anymore. There is anyway not much traffic in that road. It was very silent outside and inside we had no light switched on as we were watching TV. It is impossible that this is any reflection from the inside.
Then I turned around to talk to my wife and I saw a huge Triangle with 3 Lights under each corner. It was approx. 15-20 meters wide and maybe 1,5 meters high. The edges were rounded and there were no windows or anything to see. Maybe there was something on the top but that was not visible from that angle.
The Object was flying/hovering maybe 10 meters or lower from west to east, following the street. From my window I was able to see it around 10-20 seconds. Unfortunately I didn't run to see it from the kitchen window because I was like stunned from that encounter. The speed was very low but I cannot tell how fast it was. It seemed to me like it was searching something like a Police helicopter but it was sure no helicopter. I am a FPV Drone Pilot myself and I know how a helicopter flies and that it has to make (a lot of) sound when flying so low.
Surface was black matte without any symbols or markings as far as I have seen it. The next week I have searched in google for a triangle UFO and it looks nearly exactly like the one described in the "Belgium UFO Wave" from 1989 but without the red light in the middle.
My wife asked me what was wrong but before I could answer the object was gone. She was making jokes of me so I didn't talk to anybody about that until now. But I am nearly sure that someone else must have seen it. Please let me know if there are other reports so I know I am not crazy.

Two fast moving orange lights
Point of View: 47125'xx N / 9122'xx E facing Southwest
Observing conditions: hazy, partialy clear
UFO characteristics: 2 orange-white constantly glowing lights
UFO trail: Coming from north/nortwest flying towards south/southeast turning southwest and vanishing in the haze.
Duration of observation: Approx. 5 seconds
I (30, academic) was taking a smoke together with my GF (28, academic) on my balcony. We were stargazing. My GF explained to me the Orion constellation, with its belt and sword. We were trying to figure out which stars belong to this constellation. I tend to look at the night sky while I smoke, hoping to see shooting stars or satellites. Both I've seen plenty.
When looking at the belt of Orion I noticed a rapid movement to the far right. I thought of a shooting star and immediately pulled the attention of my GF to it, so she could see the shooting star too. It was no shooting star. The phenomenon consisted of two orange-white lights in far distance from us at a vertical viewing angle of about 351 to 401. The lights were constantly glowing. They moved horizontally at constant height at a speed much faster than conventional airplanes - which I saw plenty of before and after the incident this evening. It was flying at about 2/3 of the speed of a regular shooting star.
The object(s) passed below the belt of Orion, and when it just passed below the next brightest star to the left it appeared to slow down and it turned right (from the objects perspective). The appearance of the object slowing down was probably just a visual effect of it turning away from us. The original flightpath was from our right to our left, so when it turned southwest it looked like it would slow down or even reverse its direction. This cognition only lasted for just a moment. Then it vanished behind the haze at the horizon.
When the object(s) turned, the angle between the lights changed and their distance to each other shrinked. If one would imagine the lights belonging to the same object, then it would have tipped to its right. Also just a moment before it disappeared I thought to see blurry lights between the obvious big lights. But the moment was so short I cannot make this claim without doubt.
The past days I've read various reports where people say they were scared - why one would get scared is beyond my comprehension. Me and my GF were happy to witness the phenomenon, we went into party mode after the incident. Although she would never call it a "phenomenon". It's clear to her that she saw one solid object, an ufo, sharply turning its direction. I'm however not of the kind to jump to conclusions easily. To me, there is no way to tell whether this was one solid object or two flying objects in formation. If it was just one object, it must have been massive in size, because of the distance to us. Since the incident I'm trying to find out what this phenomenon could have been.
I ruled out several common explanations. Due to its rapid movement it could not be a plane. Due its size, even if I think of it as two objects, it could not be a regular satellite. Also, it was no meteorite, fireball or shooting star. It had no tail and did not leave a trail and maintained height. However, I've never seen the ISS, so I don't know if the ISS together with a supply ship would look just like that. I checked the ISS sighting opportunities for the date and time, the incident does not coincide. There was no sighting opportunity for Saint Gallen (Switzerland) for the 24th of March 2011 and also all sighting opportunites this month seem to be early in the morning. The incident happened at 20:08. However, maybe I'm making a mistake and I would be happy if someone with experience in acquiring data on the ISS orbit could verify this. Also I couldn't find any information on a docking maneuver of a supply ship at this date. To make it short: If this was not the ISS then I'm out of options.
I'm completely non-esoteric and non-religious. I was always open to the possibility of the existance of ufos. However the prevalent lack of the most fundamental commonsense among alleged witnesses has led me to insist that I could only be convinced if I observed an ufo myself. Unfortunately the incident was not impressive enough to entirely remove all doubt. Too bad the object didn't do any funky movements - at least it was fast and changed its direction slightly. I could not have recorded the phenomenon, because there was not enough time and I doubt my equipment would have been sufficient to pick up anything but darkness.
I would be happy if someone could check the "ISS"-hypothesis and contact me at ck.inofficial@gmail.com. Also if someone has another possible explanation I would like to know about it. I can provide more details on the incident if necessary, but I think I covered the observed's essence. Of course I would remain anonymous in the process.
Kind regards

Big Flash, fast disapearing from Ufo,and Z1rich had no electricity for about 3 min. Brownouts are not possible in Switzerland, not for 3 min!
I was at Home on my Balcony it was 3 something am and was smoking a Cigarette bevore turn to Bed. Between the Skyscrapers i saw a bright Light right above the Hill. First i thougt it could be Anything and i didnt care... So i smoked another One and looked out for some chicks or Something, and then i felt like the Light is ascending because now i could see another one coming behind the Roof (in front of me). And when i saw the third Light, i also begun to recognize the shape because it was a lil darker then the Clouds.Suddenly a big Flash scared me and it took off sooooooo fast into the Clouds thats why i could see a triangular Shape. While it took off, all the Streetlights and Lights in the Buildings and Around went off one after another ( is a scarry Sound).Everything was Dark and i thougt (F*%&ing......Aliens are Attacking us...?!!!?) Then a Car drove down the Street, the only Light i could see. Then i heard my Heart pumping again... and very fast.Ididnt want to move cause maybe i was lilbit shocked! After 1-2 minutes all the Power and the Lights came back. And the feeling of Safety crumbles back...
At the next day i asked some Friends who went clubbing that Evening, and they said, yeah the Power went off for 5 min..... So i was Sure that i wasnt dreaming!
But Z1rich and all over Switzerland we have a very great Powe,rsystem.
And if somewhere the Power goes down, it takes till 10 seconds maximum, to run Power again. But mostly it doesent even take a second.
So 3 min Blackout in the whole City, bright big Flash and a Big Structure with 3 lights, wich took of like a punch of Bruce Lee.
Someone made a Video of this Craft or Lights at Youtube: ufo z1rich

Flown in line with slight changes in direction and different speeds
Ich war draussen bei Vollmond am Feuer und beobachtete den Himmel als eine Lichtkugel strahlend wie ein Stern vorbeiflog. Es wurde angestrahlt und war nicht selbstleuchtend. Den das Licht wurde schw1cher als es von mir weg flog. Ohne Farbwechsel oder Positionslichter. Dabei flog es mit unterschiedlicher Geschwindigkeit, schubweise, teils bis nahezu zum Stillstand. Top Geschwindigkeit wie ein Flugzeug. Mit leichten Richtungswechsel von Schaffhausen in Richtung St. Gallen. Ich verlor es bei gr1sserer Entfernung aus den Augen.

Cigar shaped object with intense front- and backlight
I was next seated to my friend in the car he was driving, we have been working and he brought me back home. As usual I do look at clear night sky and first I saw a intense red light in the sky, my friend saw it too, he stopped the car and we watched out of the front window of the car and we saw a cigar shape - distance from ground to object unknown - it wasnt a plane or a helicopter, they usually have to blink here in switzerland and it wasnt a known noise to hear when I open the window of the car, it was like a hovering hum. It was a straight flight of the object, it seems for a second it would like to stop but it flew on - the backligt was in a intense blue/white. I never saw an object like this before in our night sky.
First I thought its a Star, then a airplane and then a helicopter - but it was none of them.
Since I feel that there is "more" outside our planet I regulary watch the night sky - so I still hope that we gonna meet other life forms.
The object just get out of our sight then - during of this event; aprox. 3min
