Background
At 1:45 a.m. Alaska time on May 11, 2026, a couple in Wasilla, Alaska, learned that an unidentified object they had seen about a week earlier had returned. This time, they decided to record what they saw on their smartphones. The account names the woman, her husband, their two children, ages 7 and 11, and a building in the area.
The Sighting
The primary observer first saw a disk-shaped object glowing in two shades of brown. It appeared beyond the northwest side of the second-floor bathroom window. The light began changing color, turning green and red and sometimes flashing bright white. The object moved gently, with almost no change in direction. It was about 20 degrees above the horizon and an estimated mile away.
About 10 minutes after the first object appeared, a second, much brighter one showed up lower and to its right. It seemed surrounded by haze or a halo, then quickly split into two smaller, round bodies. Their movements were “jerky” and unpredictable, unlike those of ordinary aircraft.
One of the smaller bodies began to change shape, shifting from round to a flat, prism-like form and back again. The other remained round. A few minutes later, green light formed around the central object, with four or five smaller lights hovering around it. Then all the lights disappeared at once.
At 1:58 a.m., the couple’s seven-year-old daughter called out that she had vomited, interrupting their observation. When they returned to the window at 2:06 a.m., the light had reappeared along with the main object. A few minutes later, at 2:10 a.m., the main object showed three lights instead of two, including a central light they had not seen before.
The couple’s older child, 11, also watched from the bathroom window. At 2:53 a.m., they saw another object, different from the earlier one, but did not fully record its details.
Why It’s Interesting
The report describes several stages of a sighting: changing colors, changing shape, splitting into multiple bodies, and unconventional movements, all over a relatively long period of about 90 minutes. Several family members, including children, witnessed the event, and video footage adds weight to the report, though the source has not been verified. The case shows how difficult it can be to distinguish natural phenomena, technology, and optical illusions, and points to the need for systematic research into unidentified aerial phenomena.
