UFO? Satellite? Partially Wishful Thinking From an Artist?

On January 25, 2012, on a connector flight from Long Beach to Sacramento, California, traveling to the University of California, Davis to give a lecture and visit artist studios, I spotted what may have made a long time wish come true. An eyewitness to UFO activity! After a conversation with a businessman to my right, I turned to my left, began admiring the moon, reflected on my life, grateful for the moment, I noticed a floating light.

At first I thought it was an airplane, then a satellite, even another moon, because it seemed to not be moving much. Finally, when it shifted a few times, my inside voice exclaimed, "Oh my gosh! It's a UFO!" I took out my phone and captured the footage below:

After my lecture, I shared it with some of the students. A few thought it was a UFO and shared their experiences. I was excited, but skeptical. Because there really is no way to prove what I saw is a UFO. This past week I visited youtube and search for footage that maybe captured UFO activity in the Sacramento area. I will admit the footage resembles what I captured.

What do you think? UFO? Satellite? Wishful thinking?

There are only two types of people interested in this topic; those that have experienced seeing a UFO and can no longer deny and those that don't believe and ridicule those that cannot deny UFO exsistence. Proof such as what you offer will never be enough for those that have not witnessed.

I think it was a reflection of the business person's reading light. He was probably wondering why you had your iphone turned on in clear violation of the flight attendant's preflight monologue.. For shame!!

In the early 90s i had the luck to go into a large surplus area in FLA.There were items from the Moon Shots and junk from other agency defunct projects.As i drove along looking for some useful junk i happen upon a Saucer.Well i must say that it got my attention.I walked over to it examined it and took pictures.The rest of the day was a bust and the area was hot and full of palmetto bushes.The guy at the photo lab asked me if it was real.Yep i walked over and touched it.Was about twelve feet in diameter and had several ducted fan areas but i could see no motor.It looked like aircraft aluminum.So we had flying saucers.
A few years later on a fishing trip in an area not to far from patrick afb i heard a very high pitched whine like that of a turbine and looked up just in time to see a craft that looked close fly over at a very high rate of speed and low to the ground. An F4 come over pretty close and on the same track.He was so low to the ground i felt the jet wash.i don't know if that was a drone test or he was on intercept but it looked like he was getting his butt whoped.i bet that what is up in our sky has a local origin.made in the USA.

Lets try not to continue the misnomer that is UFO=Alien ships...... just because its Unidentified doesn't immediately make it Alien. Of course ET's do exist but lets stick to the definitions here folks... Especially the author of this post. Thx

I don't need any more U.F.O. reports to believe the phenomenon is real. Seen enough of them since the early '50's over Edwards Air force Base and elsewhere before the first satellite [Sputnik] was launched. I won't hold my breath waiting for a government disclosure, it would be a foolish thing for them to admit that they really don't own the sky. We won't have mass contact , unless we come to terms with who they really are. we must at least meet them half-way, otherwise forget it. I don't think their hanging around for eons out of curiosity, maybe some form of love or responsibility. Please don't shoot at them, they came to my aid once and helped me save my own life. That's another story.

I tried to tell the story of the last part, but went way-over the character limit. Came to this site to contact Lee Spiegal, after hearing him on coast to coast am. To make a long story short, I made contact. Caught in a gale, the skipper of the boat couldn't stay awake, ordered me to take the wheel and get us to safety in the dead of night. We missed the anchorage and had to go back out to sea, with 10ft. breakers threatening to broach the vessel. I had already been contacted when I was about 3.5 yrs.young. that's another story. I started my communication by stating that I wasn't praying to God and was to young to die. I said , you know who I am, and could they help me get on the wright course. A dim red lite came from the shear cliff in Big Sur, crossed my field of vision, then came to a dead stop. After adjusting my course, I motored for hours, until I was directly underneath the object. I had already spotted the rest of the fleet but continued to get closer so I could thank them. I was able to tie the wheel for a second to go out on the deck, looked up and waved, then joined the fleet.
