Shock vid appears to show UFO with reports of ‘red spinning disk on fire’ in sky

A CALIFORNIA woman claims she heard knocking on her door in the middle of the night earlier this week.

When Kimberly Slover answered her door at her Woodlake residence, she saw her friend Victor Chavez, who asked if she wanted to see the “spaceship” he noticed.

Slover grabbed her cell phone and recorded a “round-like disk on fire in front and back.”

She told FOX 26 she “recorded a red spinning disk, with maybe a hole in the middle.”

The strange occurrence lasted less than a minute, she said.

Slover and Chaves said the disk seemed close before it disappeared and came back briefly before turning into a white spinning object after the orange glow went out.

The pair said they were looking in the southeast direction of the sky.

FIRST CONTACT

Just last month, a scientist claimed that a mysterious signal sent to Earth by “Aliens” nearly 50 years ago came from a solar system similar to ours.

Known as the “Wow!” signal, the strange minute-long burst of radio energy was received on August 15, 1977 – and it stumped scientists for years.

The name of the message came after astronomer Jerry Ehman wrote the word next to a printout of the data.

Scientists were left stunned as the “Wow!” signal was 20 times stronger than average background emissions.

It is still considered to be one of the best signals picked up by SETI, or search for extraterrestrial intelligence, telescopes.

Researchers hunting for signs of alien life have long thought it could have been Earth’s first contact with another form of life.

And 45 years later, astronomer Alberto Caballero believes he has finally found the signal’s source.

He isolated a star that is roughly the same size as the Sun – and he thinks the signal came from there.

The astronomer narrowed the search down to two areas where the signal could have come from.

One of the potential sources was identified due to its similarities to our Sun.

Listed as 2MASS 19281982-2640123, the star is an almost identical match in terms of its size and temperature.

The star is located 1,800 light-years from Earth – and it has a solar analogue that makes it the most likely area for an alien signal.

It’s thought a signal sent from such a huge distance would take centuries to reach Earth.

Caballero said the search for the signal is also a search “for life as we know it”.

He told Live Science: “The Wow! Signal is considered the best SETI candidate radio signal that we have picked up with our telescopes.”

But he admitted the “Wow!” signal most likely came from some kind of natural event and not aliens.

No planets have been found in orbit around the star yet – but the discovery could be the first step in the hunt for other life forms in space.

Any planets found could be searched for signs of life.

Caballero’s findings appeared May 6 in the International Journal of Astrobiology.
