Reported: 2004-05-02 13:09 Pacific
Duration: 45 min
No of observers: 2

Location: Los Angeles, CA, USA

Shape: Disk

Silver, metallic disc-shaped craft seen over Venice Veach, CA. Craft slowly tumbled over the area for perhaps an hour or longer. I personally had enough time to run one block home, grab my video camera, and return to film it. I was accompanied by my girlfriend who also saw it.

Craft could have been mistaken for a balloon by its slow, tumbling motion. However, its movement revealed it to be perfectly round and then perfectly disc-shaped. Weather was sunny and clear, the sun often reflecting off its surface when the angle was right. I cannot estimate the size. Disc was sometimes horizontal, but mostly vertical.

Truly an amazing experience that has brought the UFO phenomenon into my own personal experience now. It is no longer abstract or theoretical for me.
