Twelve employees at Red Rocks Amphitheater said they saw a large UFO lighting up the Colorado sky this month, according to the National UFO Reporting Center.
Workers were cleaning up at about 1 a.m. on June 5 when they spotted the black metal disk, shortly after country music star Ian Munsick took the stage.
“One of my colleagues suddenly said, ‘Hey, what’s that over there? It looks like a spaceship,'” the anonymous source said. Their report states:
“We all looked in the direction he was pointing and sure enough, there was a UFO hovering about a half mile to a mile north of the red rocks,” the poster continued.
“There were 12 of us who watched it. We kept asking each other, ‘Are you watching this too?’ The answer from the whole group was a unanimous ‘Yes.'”
Witnesses said the UFO hovered above the treetops near the Golden Arena for around 30 seconds before “vanishing without a trace.”
The poster wrote that the craft was saucer-shaped with three layers of windows, similar to a three-story office building. The entire UFO was several hundred feet long and lit up with lights.
What’s even more eerie is that the unidentified flying object made no noise at all.
“What was even crazier was that as soon as we all noticed it and stopped what we were doing to pay attention, the plane banked at an angle and began moving slowly belly-first to the east. Then it disappeared until it was out of sight. It didn’t fly off into the distance, it just disappeared. We all watched it disappear,” the post read.
Why the sudden departure?
“As soon as it realized it was being watched, we saw it disappear,” an eyewitness speculated.
The UFO believer strongly denied the possibility that he and his 11 colleagues mistook the object for a satellite or drone.
And Mansick was never off to the next tour stop.
“There was no mistaking what this was.”
According to the National UFO Reporting Center, Colorado has had 3,320 reported UFO sightings this year, ranking it 12th among states with the most reported sightings.
