Location: Foothill Ranch, CA, USA

Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object

Huge disk type object with flat edges, red glowing steam around it, hovering very low.

My boyfriend and I were bored one. Othe and drove around neighborhoods, looking at the new houses in a new community. There was still construction going on in some neighborhoods, so it wasn't densely populated. It was night time, and the sky had some clouds in it but not heavy.

As we were driving down this hill, all of a sudden in front of us appeared an enormous disk but with flat surfaces that angled on the sides. It was so large it filled the sky in front of us. It appeared to be incredibly close, about 30-50 feet away, hovering effortlessly and silently not very high in the sky at all. I cannot stress enough how insanely large this thing was just hanging low in the sky. From what I remember it wasn't a smooth surface, it was dark in color, and had steam all around it and red lights which made the steam glow red.

I don't recall seeing where the red lights came from. I just remember the red glowing steam. Just as suddenly and silently as it appeared, it disappeared. It was like seeing something unimaginable, right in front of you.

I recently asked my ex about that night 20 years ago, and if we really saw a ufo, and he confirmed that we really did see it. If I was alone, I wouldn't have believed my own eyes.

I have never seen anything like it since.

We were also close to El Toro Marine Base, where we lived. I don't know if that had anything to do with it.
