Witness Reports Sighting of Giant Disc near Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado

In a recent report submitted to the National UFO Recording Center (NUFORC), someone claiming to be an employee of Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado said that they, along with 12 other people, saw a “giant, disc-shaped craft hovering a few hundred feet above the ground.”

The sighting reportedly took place at approximately 1 a.m. on June 5th, following a performance by bands All Time Low with Bad Suns and Beauty School Dropout.

The object was said to be hundreds of feet long with three levels of windows and hovered silently before vanishing into thin air.

"I was working at Red Rocks Amphitheater last night when one of our coworkers suddenly said to us, 'Hey, what is that over there? It looks like a spaceship,'" the witness said. "We all turned to look in the direction he was pointing and sure enough, there was a UFO hovering about a half a mile to a mile north of red rocks. A dozen of us saw it. We all kept asking each other, 'Are you seeing this too?' It was a resounding 'yes' from everyone in the group."

They watched the dark metallic object for about 30 seconds before it drifted east at an estimated 5-10 mph and disappeared.

What we saw was a classic disc-shaped metallic craft that was several hundred yards long. It had three levels of windows, almost like [a] really long three-story office building. This thing was totally silent. It didn't make a sound. What's even crazier is that as soon as we all started noticing it and stopped what we were doing to pay attention to it, the craft tipped at an angle and slowly started moving belly-first to the east. Then it started fading away until it was invisible. It didn't shoot off into the distance. It simply dissolved into the ether. We all watched it vanish.

Whatever the object was, it didn’t seem to the witness like anything with a prosaic explanation.

"This was not a plane. It wasn't a satellite, a drone, or anything like that," they said. "There was no mistaking what this was: We all saw a giant disc-shaped craft hovering a few hundred feet above the ground with three rows of windows and lights. Then we all saw it fade into nothing as soon as it knew it was being watched. There were a dozen other people who saw it with me."

Forteana is rife with mysteriously vanishing phenomena.

Everything from a floating cloud of golden lights to an anomalous glowing object in the sky to flying, armored, silver beings with huge heads to Mothman have been reported to vanish suddenly in plain sight of witnesses.

Opinions differ on what these sudden disappearances might represent, but the most popular speculations include the activation of some means of invisibility, teleportation, or even phasing between dimensions.
