A woman living in North Las Vegas, says that twice this week watched a UFO. Gwendolyn Matthews saw the first UFO Sunday 5 Feb 2017. Go out at night in the yard, she noticed that the sky near her home hovered very bright glowing object.

Incredibly, the UFO remained in place for more than an hour. The woman managed to see it through binoculars, shoot it on video and put it on his page in Facebook. According to Matthews, when she watched the object through binoculars, he saw that he withdrew the tentacles, like the legs of an octopus.

Following a glowing UFO, much to the delight of Matthews, appeared on the evening of 7 February. After a while he rose into the sky and disappeared in the clouds.

"It was very beautiful, and it was not a plane or a drone" - shared his impressions of the woman. Anticipating the possible reaction of the skeptics, Matthews added: "I know I'm not crazy. And I know that it was real. I saw him through the binoculars".

The Federal aviation administration of the USA declared that in the area there were no unusual aircraft, however one of the airport employees assumed it was just the planet Venus.

Embarrassed from what turned out to be a heroine of local news, Gwendolyn Matthews said will continue to look to the sky in hope to see the amazing light that captivated her this week.

Original news

NORTH LAS VEGAS (KTNV) - A woman says she's seen the same strange light two times above her home near Martin Luther King Boulevard and Carey Avenue in North Las Vegas. She believes it's a UFO. Gwendolyn Mathews says it started Sunday around 7:30 p.m. She saw the same light not moving as she filmed it on Facebook Live for more than an hour. She says when she zoomed in with her binoculars, it appears to have legs coming out of it, similar to an octopus. She says the same light appeared again Tuesday night. "Whatever it is, it's beautiful, it's not a plane or a drone," Mathews says. We asked North Las Vegas airport and McCarran Airport about the UFO. They referred us to the FAA, who told us "we haven't had any unusual aircraft activity in the area. I'm not going to speculate about what that might be." Mathews still believes it could have been extraterrestrial visitors. "I know what I saw through those binoculars, I know what I felt," she says. After our initial story aired, a viewer who works at the weather station at the airport says it's the planet Venus. He says it appeared to "disappear" because it went behind a cloud, and says we had a broken layer of Cirrus cloud at 25,000 feet all night.

Уличный фонарь

In many cities (especially European) are widely distributed street lights, weighing on an extension wire. Sometimes, when photographing a landscape, a lantern in the sky can be mistaken for a UFO if the wires will not be visible (e.g. under a certain angle).

It happens that the author deliberately blurs the wires.

Sometimes these lights are used for an intentional imitation of a UFO due to osobennostei design.

Sometimes a UFO can be taken lights caught in the frame part, or as a contrast object against a plain background when shooting at night.

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials

A bright object is clearly a street lamp, as the visible pillar on which it is placed. Maybe she meant some other object?
