​A New York witness at Centereach reported watching and photographing a sphere-shaped object just 200 feet off the ground and about a quarter-mile away, according to testimony in Case 81996 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness first saw the object looking through a dining room window on February 8, 2017.

“I got my camera and went outside and shot several pictures,” the witness stated. “I used binoculars to observe the object for about five minutes before it faded out.”
​
The case was investigated by New York MUFON Field Investigators Joseph Flammer and Nicholas Voulgaris, and closed as an Unknown UAV.

The witness submitted three images with the report, which was filed on February 10, 2017.
​
“Witness said by telephone that he is retired from law enforcement,” Flammer and Voulgaris stated in their report. “He said the most recent was a sighting of two that were seen from his yard. The previous sighting was two years ago, but not seen by him, but his son-in-law, who also witnessed the current sighting. He said the object he saw was silent. He estimated the size to be about that of a large beach ball. He said, while the object was only about 200-feet high, it was about a quarter of a mile away. He took six photos, all blurry.”
​
Centereach is a hamlet in Suffolk County, New York, population 31,578.

Not very compelling. I once saw a ball lighting hoovering over a Tennessee valley farm house glowing red. I thought it was a blown transformer. I ran towards it thinking the barn would catch fire. The electric charge off the ball lit me up like a Christmas tree. I was terribly sick for several days after. Long story short run the other way fast as you can unless bed ridden is what you're going for! It was cool looking like a science presentation given by Tesla'. Some sort of advanced weaponry or a probe of some sort?

What you saw over the barn sounds more like an UFO than a ball lightning occurrence, which happens to be far rarer than UFO's. If you saw a actual stationary ball lightning occurrence you are fortunate indeed. I have never seen such a phenomenon, seems UFO's are a dime a dozen, not ball lightning.

never heard of any ball lightning making anyone ill. otoh 'heavy-metal' type UFOs are notoriously radioactive. The USAF used to give to pilots a warning not to touch UFOs.

About 2-3 years ago i was out in my pasture. It was about 10ish at night and was mid summer. An orange glowing ball appeared over the tree line. It floated by with no sound and disappeared when it floated past anpther. Moments later another one came out of the woods owing the first one. Then another one appeared and did the exact same thing. I did not have my fone to take pucs. They were not lanterns. They were glowing.i didnt see them continue on after they passed the last tree.

Has anyone ever heard the theory that maybe the story of the bible isn't so old and the fallen angels (or demens) are the aliens and this maybe the anticrist as rev. In bible.

Jesus -really? Or would you say Yeshua? Esua? Osura, he of Sirius? who made Horus? aka Saturn? The mono-myth. A resonant reminder, how our hero makes a way. And if a tale can survive 20,000 years, then there is room for historical *and* metaphorical insight within.

Yes, I sure have. Soon everyone will realize that these aren’t machines but interventional craft flown by dark spiritual powers, namely the fallen ones you speak of..

I've seen these bright orbs on numerous occasions in this country and in England. I'm glad you got a photo.

In the late summer of 1988 on a cloudy night we had friends over for a cook out ,around 9;30 pm we seen this object coming at us with these bright lights that kind of looked like plane head lights when they first appeared. as it slowly moved towards us we could tell its wasn't a plane. as it came closer and floated over us we could tell its was huge by the light pattern and nothing we knew could fly that slow and stay in the air. its was kind of oval shape and had different color lights that blinked on and off all around it and in rolls or 3's. it had a sound of a low hum, and was just above the tree's, not very high in the sky. once it past over us and moved on over the hill we had other reports of the thing Had broken up into smaller objects before moving on. the next day in the Binghamton paper there were reports of 12 different sightings around the state that night. I have a clipping of the article from that night. I would have to dig it out. (with out looking it up it could have been in 1989, not positive at this time) but never heard any more about it after that. I did take pictures of it , but when I sent them out to get developed and the pictures came back the negatives of those shots were missing like they were cut out. wish i could see one now with our smart phone we could had some great pictures. but it was something none of use will ever for get. it made those that seen this object believers that there is more to what the gov. is telling us.

Ball lightening is a myth and does not exist.
