When the Symes family spotted a glowing orb following them home from a pub in Wales in 1975, they had no idea it was just the beginning of decades of UFO encounters that would span multiple generations. From metallic spheres hovering over their house to military jets mysteriously appearing after their reports, their experiences mirror hundreds of similar sightings of spherical UFOs stalking families across Britain and around the world.

Whether the Symes family are just simply in the right place at the right time or whether their location plays a part in these multiple sightings remains open to debate. Although there isn’t any evidence for it, perhaps the Symes have been targeted by the alleged extraterrestrial occupants of these seemingly alien vehicles. What is interesting, though, is that there are many sightings of these shiny or glowing spherical UFOs on record, both in the United Kingdom and around the world. And what’s more, many of them share remarkably similar details in terms of their description and how they act.

When a family bought a Utah ranch in the 1990s, they discovered it was ground zero for UFO sightings, shape-shifting creatures, cattle mutilations, and dimensional portals that scientists watched open before their eyes.
