Written by the witness:
UFO REPORT 31-7-2010 AT 10.15PM.
"On 31st July 2010 I opened my back door to go outside as it was warm, as I walked out I looked up the hill, there is a road that passes the back off to my left, to my surprise through some small trees I could see an orange orb coming down the hill. I watched this orb for at least 200m as it arrived.
As the orb got opposite where we live the orb slowed very quickly and then stopped about 25-30m away, There were two ladies talking at this time on the road and I heard one of them panic about what they were seeing.
A moment later the orb must have spotted me and moved sideways towards me and stopped 15m away over an Elder bush, I did get the feeling it moved towards me for a closer look, this bush was only 15 feet high and the orb was just above the bush, also this would of been lower than the roof top, when the orb left it just took off down the side of the end house. I watched this orb for approximately 2 minutes which seemed to be a lifetime.
I ran through my house and grabbed my digital camera, a Fujifilm, 8.3mp with a massive 3x zoom and took a video of this orb as it moved away from me.
A few weeks later I had some work at a property and in the rear garden was a post and stuck on the post was a small object that reminded me of what I had seen, so I brought it home with me, please see attached picture of object. (Very odd I should find this). It does not do it justice though.

I have never seen anything like this before, the whole event was incredible.
-Description of the orb-
The center ball was as big as a football, it had spikes protruding from all over the center ball area, at least 20 or more; each spike in turn retracted back into the center almost like in turn very fast and it kept doing this; each spike looked jagged and tapered off into a spike; each spike may have been 18 inches long; this Orb was orange in colour and shimmered and pulsated at the same time, the surface of the centre and spikes seem to be rough or textured; it hovered and there was no noise, at 15m I could see all the detail; if I was asked what it was made of I would say glass or crystal.
I would just love to see this orb again.
I have attached the video for you to see, plus a picture of the object I found and another picture I found that I modified to try and create what I saw, but nothing will ever beat seeing the real thing.
Kind regards." End.
The description of this 2010 spiky sphere, (which is a very rare type of UFO), tallies quite nicely with one of the UFOs seen in the famous Livingston Encounter.Please click the link below to read the full story.
