We were traveling west on FL State Road 50 at about 60mph through Lake County Florida on Sunday, October 15th 2006. We had just passed through Groveland Fl. This was a very dark portion of the road with no buildings and no artificial light (except for our headlights) At approximately 9:05pm my wife while looking out of the passenger window of our vehicle observed four glowing green lights, (orbs) in the NE sky.I estimate that the lights were at appoximately 65 degrees above horizion in the NE sky. The shape of the lights, orbs, was oval. They were moving very rapidly in a synchronized almost choreographed pattern in the shape of a figure eight that was turned on its side. The lights never appeared to touch or converge into one in the center of the pattern. When it looked like they would collide they would suddenly veer away from each other and continue the pattern. I pulled over and exited the vehicle to get a better look. There was absolutely no sound. My wife , daughter and myself watched these lights from the side of the road until 9:15pm, (10 minutes). We then got back into our car and continued on west on Fl SR 50 into Hernando County FL.My wife and daughter continued to observe these lights almost continually until 9:36 PM (trees would intermittently block their view as I drove) At approximately 9:25 PM as we drove, we observed two bright white lights that we attributed to helicopters heading toward the above mentioned green ovals. One was coming from the North and the other from the South. The weather conditions were partly cloudy and according to weather.com visibility was 10 miles. We were returning from a three day stay at Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, FL

I first thought these might be advertising lights or something along that vein but there were no beams trailing behind the glowing ovals. I am a retired police officer. I try to look at things objectively without preconcieved notions; that said, this was a weird experience. My wife said that it had a "calming" effect on her. My daughter however was anxious and somewhat scared. That is why we did not stay parked longer at the road side observing the lights.
Please note that my wife suddenly became very tired and actually fell asleep right after we could no longer see the glowing objects. I was still driving and it was 9:41 PM when I noticed my wife was asleep. She was still awake at 9:36 PM because she commented that she could no longer see the objects.
I thank you for listening to my report.

And there are thousands of people seeing strange stuff like this every day.
I believe some can be explained away but many of them cant.

Something is going on [popcorn]

Interesting, did you look in the local newspapers and so on to see if anyone else has seen this?

Green? Well it could only be one thing...swamp gas. Case closed.

sounds a memorable sighting - whatever it was i know i've posted this link before, but some of the reports in here also talk of green lights......

look on the national ufo reporting center web site and see if any other reports are filed for that night.Thats what I did with my sightings and others seen the same thing it made me feel better knowing I was not crazy

You might want to give it a month because they update monthly.

How can you say that swamp gas would go around like that in "orb shape" ? I really don't understand your point. :headscrat

Goosh. I should start doing that but I don't have a clue where or who to call yet. Imagine me calling for the 13th time and they all say "Ohhh nooo, is that brazilian nut again".

Yep. That's right and still most of us prefer to ignore it all. [popcorn] I don't!

Look at the smiley, it means he was being sarcastic and funny at the same time

Fact is, that is a pretty open part of Lake County, near Groveland... at least it was the last time I was there (my grandmother lived in Fruitland Park for years), so I believe fully that you did see a UFO...

I live around two top secrect government facilities and an air force base so I am not surprised to see ufos around this area.oh yea cant forget nasa either...

Around me.Lockheed martin,reaserch park,patricks air force base and nasa all around the area here.

Hi
I filed an online report with the National UFO Reporting Center. I also telephoned their hotline. They were adamant about it being advertising lights. I told them I had thought that too but there were no beams. :headscrat I also told them it was in the NE sky and they said that would help them. I did think of NASA as the NE direction would be in the vicinity of NASA but these things looked relatively close to where we were. I did also report this to MUFON online and was able to access their report section without any problem yesterday. Now when I try a page pops up saying I am forbidden access. I am not a member there so this may be the reason.

How close to Disney World were you ? Could it have been a laser light show ? Also, probably irrelevant but, isn't a figure of eight on it's side the sign for infinity ?

Hi Greg
We where about 1 hour out of Disney. The thought of Disney lights did cross my mind but again there were no beams trailing behind the ovals, and the Disney laser light shows we have seen in the past the lights were pointed pretty high in the sky. Yes, I did consider that it was the Infinity sign! That make it all the more interesting.

Indeed I was but to answer you question Beer, it was a sphere because it was a space balloon reflecting swamp gas!

LOL space ballon reflecting swamp gas!

BINGO!

Central Florida is freaky light central, all courtesy of Disney World and specifically EPCOT center.

EPCOT boasts one of this planets most impressive laser/fireworks/multi media shows,and coincedently they run this show at about 9:00-9:45 every night of the week (weather permitting)

BTW,the show is called IllumiNATIONS

Considering the time(9:15 ish) and color(green) and shape(infinity symbol) of the occurence and the partly cloudy skies(perfect for bouncing lasers off of) I'd have to say...

Mystery Solved.

Oh and by the way I'm a 25 year central Florida resident having spent untold fortunes at Disney.

I'd say you got this one adequately explained.
Congratulations.
