- UFO SIGHTINGS HAVE PICKED UP AGAIN IN THE US. Numerous
UFOs were observed around the US on September 11, the same day as the World
Trade Center attack after the grounding of all commercial aircraft. UFOs
were spotted in Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Ohio, Kentucky,
Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Norway, and Japan. US
and Britain attack Taliban in Afghanistan.

- REVERE -- Logan Airport had been shut down due to trade
center attack on September 11, 2001. The witness who lives nearby had
observed fighter jets all day, but at 9:00 PM, he noticed a star like object
in the eastern sky. He ran home to get his video camera and his father.
Upon return we were greeted by four others who were also observing the
UFO over Short Beach. Upon zooming in with my Sony Digital 8 handy cam.
I noticed an object that appeared to hover in the sky, but through my
binoculars it seemed to dance all around. There were blue and red lights
that were moving all around the craft. We then witnessed a splitting of
a vessel into parts. One objectís light began to move rapidly in
a different pattern as if to be communicating with the other ship. One
looked like fireworks, and then quickly disappeared, and reappeared to
the left at a 45 degree angle. We then witnessed a triangle type formation
with yet another craft. I have all sorts of video. Craft flew rapidly
east and we then saw three fighter jets flying to and above these objects.
Video footage played at slow motion shows intricate light patterns on
one ship, with very bright lights in the center and almost force field
like arcs moving from the center to the outer edges. Many witnesses stopped
their vehicles to observe them.

- OTIS AIR FORCE BASE -- A couple of friends and I were
looking at the sky September 11, 2001, for any air traffic since there
was only military traffic allowed. At 10:00 PM we saw two Air Force jets
in single file heading toward Otis Air Force Base in Cape Cod. They were
close together and in quite a hurry. A minute later, my friend pointed
out a circular object orange in color moving at an enormous rate of speed
across the open sky. It seemed to zigzag and dance as if it was intelligent,
and then disappeared behind some trees. I've never seen anything as fast
as this in mid air. About ten minutes later, a similar object came across
the sky again from the east to southwest with the same speed and sporadic
movement, and again disappeared behind some trees. Thanks to Peter Davenport,

- NEW YORK A UFO SPHERE CHECKED US OUT WHILE WE FLEW MODEL
ROCKETS
-
- LYNBROOK -- The witness who is the father of three kids
went out for an hour to shoot off model rockets on September 2, 2001.
They shot ten rockets with class B engines when the father witnessed what
appeared to be the wadding out of one of the rockets at 5:35 PM. Using
their binoculars, he realized the object was nothing like they had ever
seen. They were roundish with a red light, but the red was not sharply
defined. Then my sons witnessed the light change from one big light, to
smaller lights. There were many small UFOs and two bigger ones. They
seemed to hover and then move quickly in different directions. One even
went in the opposite direction without slowing down. Then after ten minutes,
they started to disappear. The closest one was shinny aluminum.

- PENNSYLVANIA WHITE TEARDROP
-
- LANSDALE -- The witness was on his deck talking to a
friend on the phone on September 11, 2001, about the attacks. He saw what
he thought were some unusually bright stars grouped together in the shape
of a perfect triangle. I had never noticed this before. One suddenly
shot across the sky that looked like a white teardrop, then it was gone.
This was much too large to be a shooting star. There was no sound and
no colored lights. I have never seen anything like it.
-
- HELLERTOWN -- Also on September 11, 2001, high in the
northern sky two objects were seen flashing red, green, and white lights
flying slowly in a circular path at 11:00 PM. Then one object moved up
to about a 60-degree angle, the other one flew below the horizon. We observed
it for an hour went and went to sleep thinking it must have been satellite
or something and we'd look for it the next night, but it was not there.
There were no airplanes flying this night because of the terrorist attacks.
We heard airplanes flying over before, which drew our attention outside;
these planes went in an opposite direction of the lights. We figured they
were military aircraft, but these lights did not appear to be anything
we had seen before, they were very slowly moving, almost stationary, about
the size of a very large star. Thanks to NUFORC www.ufocenter.com.

- SHARON -- The Herald's Joe Pinchot reports A fireball
shooting across the early night sky on Tuesday, October 2, 2001, led many
residents from the southwestern part of Mercer County to call 911. Supervisor
Tom Meyer said calls for what apparently was a meteor started coming in
at 7:41 from the Shenango Valley. "They've described it as a large
ball of fire with a tail," he said. Meyer said unless the meteor
hit the ground in Mercer County, there was nothing 911 could do and there
were no reports of that. Meteors, commonly called shooting stars, are
the streaks of light caused by dust particles from space evaporating in
the earth's atmosphere, according to NASA. The particles themselves are
called meteoroids, and, if they land on earth, meteorites. Astronomer
Ted Pedas of Farrell said he did not see the meteor but from its description
it appeared to have been a bolide, a very large meteor that probably was
seen over six or seven states. Bolides are "the size of a walnut
a! nd on up," he said. Thanks to The Herald's 10/03/01 and Gerry

- AKRON -- Beacon Journal's Carol Biliczky reports, "Everyone
has an opinion about the streak of light that shot across the sky on October
2, 2001, at 7:30 PM. NASA spokesman from Glenn Research Center, David
DeFelice suggests it was a bolide -- a big meteor that explodes into a
shower of colors as it enters the Earth's atmosphere. BRYAN -- The witness
reports that, "On September 29, 2001, myself and three other people
saw seven bright orange objects in the western sky just above horizon at
7:13 PM. We first noticed three objects that were vertical at several
thousand feet altitude. There were two more vertical objects spaced the
same distance and two more flying around them with very bright orange tails.
The five that were vertical stayed in place for about seven minutes then
they all disappeared. They were the size of a dime at armís length.
Other witnesses were Jean Short, Shannon Ooten and Nick Favret all from
Bryan. Thanks to Skywatch International Inc. skyopen@yahoogroups.com

- GEORGIA MISSING TIME
-
- ROSWELL -- The witness had just finished eating dinner
at the Waffle House on Cobb Parkway when he began to feel a tingling sensation
in his rear molar bottom tooth on September 1, 2001. He states, "I
quickly paid my bill and exited the building when I noticed that the toothache
was subsiding. I noticed a faint humming sound in my ear and looked up,
and noticed a tight formation of five aircraft that did some remarkable
things. The three that were closest to me suddenly descended from about
25,000 feet to about 500 feet. The other two craft, in the rear, simply
disappeared. A bright beam began to shine down from one of them. That
is when I blacked out. I woke up 30 minutes later in a farm field ten
miles away. I felt refreshed and still had my receipt from the Waffle
House in my pocket that showed I had left the restaurant at 1:30 AM. What
happened during that 30-minute period is beyond me. I can't remember a
thing. Anyway, I found a nearby road and was lucky to fin! d a farmhouse
with a light on inside. The farmer gave me a ride back to my car. It
was then that I noticed the tooth was missing. The strange thing was that
there was no blood. It had completely healed over as if I had never been
born with a tooth there in the first place. This is what prompted me to
visit your website. Looking at my arms and legs, I notice nothing unusual
except that there appears to be some kind of injection mark with a lump
about the size of a pea on my left bicep. It doesn't hurt and it seems
hard. My vision seems a little blurred. In the back pocket of my jeans,
I noticed a piece of paper that has a type of hieroglyphics. Thanks to

- KENTUCKY UFO LANDING
-
- FORT KNOX. On Sunday, October 7, 2001, Peter Davenport
called to inform me that he had just received a UFO report from witnesses
who claimed to observe a UFO landing nearby. Later, the witnesses also
saw the craft take off. They visited the field and found evidence of a
landing. Burn marks and impressions in the ground were spotted.

- MICHIGAN SIGHTING OF TRIANGLE WEDGE SHAPED OBJECT
-
- COLON -- On September 11, 200I, the witness and his 9-year-old
son, saw a wedge shaped UFO at 10:10 PM. The boy called out when he saw
the craft, and his father thinking this odd as all of the airports had
been shut down. They saw a slow moving craft with randomly flashing blue,
red, and white lights all along its edge. The father states, "We
then ran outside to get a better view. It was moving due west. As it
came parallel to our position I did an angle check by hand (a trick I learned
in astronomy class) I found that it was about 30 degrees above the horizon
over due south. I could not judge its distance as I realized that I was
not dealing with just any standard aircraft, and these things could really
be any size. I could not detect any sound coming from the craft. As it
neared the western horizon I noticed that the only steady lights on the
craft were the two white lights, one on each rear point. This is more
proof that this type of craft exists. My theory is tha! t they may have
been interested as to why there were no other aircraft in the air over
one of the busiest air traffic continents on this planet." Thanks

- WISCONSIN STRANGE LIGHTS
-
- Bonnie M reports, "I got a telephone call at 8:40
PM of a strange light in the sky September 26, 2001. I went outside and
to the northwest was a light in the sky about three times the size of a
star. It was below the top of tall trees. It stayed in this position
for a long time when it suddenly jumped higher in the sky. I got my binoculars
and the object had green, red and white lights, which changed positions
rapidly. Some of the time it looked as if it was circular with all the
lights in a changing pattern. Then it seemed to jump all over and then
changed into a pattern of red, white and green lights that were in single
file and danced around and looked like a snake dancing in the sky. It
got lower, when two airplanes flew above it. There was a definite look
to the light pattern that lasted from 8:40 to 9:42 PM. It was different
from anything I have seen. Thanks to Jenny Hoppe UFOWisconsin http://www.ufowisconsin.com/county/reports/r2001_0926_winnebago.html

- ILLINOIS FOUR UFO OBJECTS IN SKY
-
- CRESCENT CITY -- On September 4, 2001, driving home with
my 8-year-old grand son the sun was setting at 7:00 PM, but it was strange
because it kept getting brighter. I am 50 years old and I've never seen
anything like this. The sun or a light got brighter in every direction
we turned, like it was getting closer and closer to us. We had to hold
a paper in front of our eyes to be able to see the bright orange that radiated
so bright its hard to describe. Then pretty soon the bright light was
gone. An hour later, we noticed there was a cloud of pink all around us
just like when youíre in the fog. The bottom half was very sharp
blue and on top of it was very pink. We could hardly see as it got closer
so we stopped the car. The pink cloud was still there along with the four
ships. These were not airplanes or vapor. They angled down and two looked
a little smaller with a design of some kind. They turned right and we expected
them to land. Fifteen minutes later, when I got! to my house they were
gone but we were very scared by the experience. Thanks to NUFORC www.ufocenter.com
-
- BOLINGBROOK -- On September 11, 2001, the area had lost
electrical power so the two families were outside and eight witnesses spotted
two flashing lights traveling north side by side at 7:30 PM. After a few
minutes they disappeared, but within a couple minutes the lights began
flashing again near where they were first seen. The flashing lights were
traveling south, but would turn around and travel north. Sometimes they
faded to a red glow. This had gone on for over an hour when I saw a steady
red light traveling east much faster than any jet. Within minutes I saw
a steady white light traveling southeast. My wife 2 children, neighbor
and wife and his 2 children all witnessed this. (NUFORC Note: The lights
may have been navigation lights on military aircraft patrolling the skies
over the U. S. PD)
-
- MISSOURI LIGHT
-
- ASH GROVE at about 10:00 PM I went out in the front yard
on September 11, 2001, and noticed a light at about 20 degrees above the
horizon. It was climbing at a high rate of speed, then descended, and did
ALL KINDS of loops, back and forth from left to right, and hovered. I
can see it out my window as I type this. It's a dot in the sky, slightly
brighter then a star with an occasional red flash. Ira still going in
circles, up and down, and all different directions. Its now 10:47 PM and
its still there. All air traffic is grounded. Nothing we have could do
this. They're too fast with right angle turns. Thanks to NUFORC.

- NEBRASKA CIGAR METALLIC HOVERING OBJECT
-
- OMAHA -- On September 21, 2001, the witness was driving
down 84th street and noticed a metallic object in the sky near Offutt Air
Force Base about 8 miles away at 2,000 feet in altitude. At first, he
thought it was an "American Airlines" aircraft on approach to
Epply Air Field. However, the object was not flying a normal approach.
At 2:30 PM, the object appeared to be hovering which peaked my attention,
so I drove to a higher elevation in town. As I drove closer the object
descended and disappeared from view. I don't believe it was a normal jet;
even a Harrier aircraft does not begin a descent from that altitude.

- OKLAHOMA FLYING TRIANGLE CHANGES DIRECTIONS INSTANTLY
-
- WOODWARD -- On September 19, 2001, the witness was changing
the price signs on the gas pumps at the travel center when he saw a huge
silvery flying triangle. It was traveling at an impossibly fast speed
going east at 9:30 AM. It stopped in midair, without slowing, became invisible
for a couple seconds, and then sped off west. It stopped again, without
slowing, then dropped straight down out of the sky then became invisible
once more. Following this, I heard a very loud sonic boom and the roar
of a jet, but did not see a jet. A short time after that, I heard two
more sonic booms. Thanks to Peter Davenport NUFORC.

-
- OSLO -- On September 25, 2001, police in Helgeland, north
central Norway, had been getting a rash of UFO sightings, while a woman
in the northern town of Bod insists a small flying object landed in her
garden. Further investigation reveals that a car traveling with a laser
light system may have confused witnesses. Thanks to Frode SÊtran

- JAPAN UFO FORMATION SIGHTING
-
- KYOTO STATION -- On 22nd September, several strange objects
flying in formation over the Kyoto JR Station Building were seen by at
least 20 people. At the time, Jun-ichi Kato, a leader of OUR-J (the Organization
of UFO Research Japan), was with a member, Tomokatsu Terayama and other
several members gathering for the regular skywatch meeting. Terayama initially
spotted these UFOs at the northeast sky around 12:10. Kato and other meeting
members verified the objects flying in some formation, and Kato and Terayama
succeeded in photographing the UFOs. The eyewitnesses were not only OUR-J
members, but some tourists and the local residents. Seven objects were
flying and changing formation and each looked like it transformed from
a round to an oblong shape. Those observing the UFOs with their binoculars
said that these objects looked different from any conventional objects.
They suddenly changed direction to WSW and disappeared.
-
- URAWA -- An orange sphere was seen on September 23, 2001,
around 16:35, over the OUR-J branch group's skywatch meeting in Urawa city
(near Tokyo). At first, a member, Mayumi Ikeda (Ms) spotted this UFO about
20 minutes after the meeting was started. The object was hovering over
their heads for a minute or two and slowly moved to the south, and finally
disappeared as ascending. The object was photographed by OUR-J staff,
Nishikawa and the photo will be posted in the November OUR-J journal at

- MAPS AND UFO WAVES
-
- Larry Hatch writes, "I have put up a new UFO map
on the *U* Website. This one is different from the others; it is an overlay
of three separate UFO wave years in the USA (1947, 1957, 1973) layered
as separate colored sightings-dots. Each of those waves taken separately
seems to favor certain US regions over others. What seems new, is that
the three years taken together, and excluding all other years, seem to
blanket the USA almost completely. Please click on: http://www.larryhatch.net/WAVLAYER.html
the only blank spots are where population density is sparse to non-existent,
almost like some sort of plan. The same map is shown on George Filer's
website. http://www.filersfiles.com/ufo/ufodatabase.htm. George was kind
enough to have the map image color-enhanced for clarity. Thanks to Larry
Hatch. Editor's Note: It seems unlikely that random reports would blanket
the entire US unless there was a plan. Many of the sightings are near
US military bases.
