I have seen many Unidentified Flying Objects in these skies near Area 51, but this one takes the cake.

It was a cloudless day in September of 1995. At that time there was no electricity or phone lines available, in this area. We were extremely secluded from other people. Generators and solar panels were our source of electricity. The wells generator was a 5K, due to the depth of over 450 feet.
That morning the water ran out at 9:30 a.m. so I had to go outside and pump some more up from the well. The well is about 100 feet from the house. Just as I was going to pull on the rope I heard an airforce jet and looked up. Airforce jets are certainly not unusual for this area, but what was unusual was there were six star-like objects following it. I ran to the house to get my daughter to see this strange event. I guess I just wanted someone else to verify what I was in fact seeing. Within minutes the jet, with the objects following it went out of sight. They were heading north towards Area 51. My daughter and I were baffled as to what those things were, but I proceeded to pump up the water from the well.
We went back inside and my daughter started doing the morning dishes. We'd talk about those strange lights, following the jet. I brushed it off.... as some military secret project of some kind. After doing all the mornings chores the water ran out again. It was 11:30 a.m.
Just as I opened the door to go outside THERE THEY WERE! Directly above my head at 12:00 o'clock high at approximately 100 feet up. There were anywhere from 150-200 of these star-like objects. I yelled to my daughter to come see this! We both went outside right underneath them. We just stood there and watched in awe.
The objects ranged from the size of a basketball to that of a tennis ball. They could maneuver up, down, sideways, and zig-zag. They were silent and even appeared to be dancing, across the sky. Moving ever-so slowly. I felt (they knew) we were watching them.
My daughter asked, " Mom what are those things?" Moms are supposed to have the answers right? This time I didn't have a clue and responded, I don't know???
I call them a star-like objects, because they were a brilliant white light. These too were moving north which would be in the direction of Area 51. One of the basketball size lights almost lit on our 8 foot fence and was approximately 20 feet from us. It started making a strange noise. An extremely irritating humming sound and was changing from the light form, into what appeared metallic. That's when my daughter and I decided to flee back into the house. I know it was 11:30 a.m. when we went outside. It was 1:30 p.m. when we got back into the house. We didn't say a word to each other and both of us felt afraid.
I guess we were not the only ones in Nevada to see these strange lights. People in Las Vegas seen them too. Garage doors were opening mysteriously, for no reason. The media was told that the Awax plane caused that. As far as the lights go.... The military brushed it off by saying it was army guys, in the nearby mountains using laser beams.
I'm sorry but I don't buy that excuse. We did see these same lights again, during the 911 no fly time. There were only about a dozen of them at that time and they were at a much higher altitude. I just hope they are ours. Otherwise.....we're being invaded folks.

Sounds like aircraft flares...used in cases of infra-red missile attack.

but that wouldnt account for the lights dancing and moving about like that, as far as i know flares dont dance, but if im wrong, hell, those flares would be impressive!

Some flares do have parachuts to slow their decent. Parachutes and wind could make things appear to dance...

It is hard to say without actually seeing anything...

well that does sound right. A get flying over and flares behind it? sounds and looks just like that pic above...but thats still weird how long you were out there...

OrbnSky---Being ex-military, that does sound like flares to me. Although, you say you first spotted the jet at around 0930 and came back out at around 1130. How far up was the jet when you first spotted it? Were the objects behind,above,below, in front of the jet? You say that the six star-like objects disappeared with the jet and later returned in number of 150-200. Where in reference to your home was the flight path before they disappeared? Later, where did you see the objects reappear? Did you find any chutes or anything metallic on your lawn later on?

I've also had an encounter while in the Army regarding what I thought were flares at first but definitely were not. I posted my story a day or two ago.

Flares do do some funny things in the air due to wind.

This summer I plan on travelling to Rachel,NV and checking out Area 51 for myself. I plan on staying for a few months and doing some extensive research maybe even trying to sneek in. Just kidding or am I! lol

Do you think you lost those two hours?...or a sort of time warp occured?

I've read of accounts of UFO's where there is a humming noise.Something is going on; I hope we find out soon what it is.

i dont know what's more amazing... the weird lights or the fact you would drink well water from one of the most radioactively polluted pieces of earth on the globe.

You say there were these things in the sky after the 911 flight restrictions.That's very interesting.

Keep us posted; if anything else happens, I'd like to hear about it.
