blazing red UFO spotted in the Northern California sky Dec 31,2012

Walking home this evening in Berkeley, CA I observed in the sky what look like a plane flying in a blaze of bright red fire. At first glance I thought why is this plane so red, then I notice that it began slowing down in way that seemed odd for a normal plane in flight across the sky and as the blazing red plane became closer to view I saw a second plane coming clearer into view and then first plane began ascending higher into the sky. I said to myself that it must be a helicopter until it became going further up into the sky than I had ever seen a helicopter ascend.

I saw a neighborhood acquaintance that is in a wheel chair approaching and I called out to him to look up at what was happening.

While we were watching the first plane ascend so high that it look like a red dot the second plane was moving up higher while moving in the direction of San Francisco it was at that time we could see a third plane approaching as if was on fire then all three were gone from view I was back into my apartment and the time was 11:50.

I am so glad that I did not have that experience alone the two young men that so were also amazed at what we had just experienced.

I had planed to visit with my friend and bring in the New Year with friends but I felt to hot inside and decide that I would return home after visiting only 10 minutes.

I cannot stress enough how glad I am that I had two people around me to witness this incredible sighting.

You have any questions please contact me.
