New Castle Plasma Orb Sighting

Incident Overview

On August 4, 2026, a group of fence builders working on a farm jobsite in New Castle, Colorado, USA, observed an unusual spherical object in the sky. The sighting lasted approximately 5.5 hours, from around 11:00 AM to 4:30 PM local time.

Physical Description

The object was described as a white sphere with translucent characteristics. One witness stated that when viewed through binoculars, the sphere appeared to have a transparent or translucent quality. The object was estimated to be substantially large—one witness specifically dismissed the possibility of it being a balloon, claiming it was "triple the height of a 747" aircraft. UFO researcher Scott C. Waring characterized the object as a "plasma orb" capable of changing sizes and shapes.

Witness Accounts

Multiple fence builders working at the jobsite first noticed the glowing circular shape in the morning sky upon arrival around 11:00 AM. The witnesses maintained continuous observation throughout their workday, with the object remaining stationary in the same location from approximately 11:00 AM until the workers departed around 4:30 PM.

Evidence

The sighting produced tangible evidence in the form of video footage (approximately 10 seconds) and at least one focused photograph clearly showing the object's white color, spherical shape, and translucent appearance. The witnesses were credible construction workers documenting an anomalous event they encountered during their regular workday.

Regional Context

This sighting occurred as part of a broader pattern of white sphere UFO sightings over Colorado. Notably, the witnesses reported this was not their first encounter with a similar object—they claimed to have observed an identical sphere at a different location previously. According to UFO reports from the region, white spheres are frequently observed over Colorado and are sometimes reported being pursued by military jets.
