The UFO Phenomenon

The iconic Colorado venue was the scene of a UFO sighting involving multiple witnesses back in June.
Situated around 10 miles to the south-west of Denver, Colorado, the Red Rocks Amphitheatre is a large, open air venue capable of seating almost 10,000 people at any one time.

But it wasn't one of the acts performing on stage that gained attention back on June 5th - it was a strange object spotted in the sky over the venue by at least a dozen members of staff.

Visible in the northern sky at around 1am, the object was described by witnesses as a "dark metallic disc" which measured several hundred feet in length and had "three levels of windows".

"One of our coworkers suddenly said to us, 'Hey, what is that over there? It looks like a spaceship,'" one of the witnesses wrote.
"We all turned to look in the direction he was pointing and sure enough, there was a UFO hovering."

The object remained in place for around 30 seconds before heading toward the east.

"Then it started fading away until it was invisible," the witness continued.

"It didn't shoot off into the distance. It simply dissolved into the ether. We all watched it vanish. This was not a plane. It wasn't a satellite, a drone, or anything like that."

"There was no mistaking what this was."
