- NEW YORK LARGE FLYING TRIANGLE GLIDES OVER
HIGHWAY
-
- SCOTCHTOWN -- The witness was traveling west bound on
State Highway 17, and saw in the distance a group of white lights with
a central blinking red light moving off in distance at 6:15 AM. There was
heavy traffic both directions as he drove four miles east of Exit 119 that
intersects with State Highway 302 which leads to Pine Bush. As he approached
Exit 119 he suddenly aware of very large (size of 737 at least) three large
white lights substantially touching each other in horizontal row. The craft
was very low with an altitude of only 300 feet descending silently as though
gliding, Its speed was 60 MPH as it passed over Highway 17 traffic, and
continued to my right descending over trees and rooftops and then turned
left toward Pine Bush. The witness says, "It was banking 45 degrees,
revealing three large white moderately bright circular lights defining
a perfect equilateral triangle and a same size circular red light in center."
None of the lights were blinking. The area between the lights appeared
black and triangular, barely distinguishable from sky which was still dark
and completely overcast. The craft passed about 100 feet over and in front
of me. The object descended far enough to disappear below my horizon. The
terrain to my right at that point is below elevation of Highway 17, where
only treetops and rooftops of buildings are visible. I did not pull over
to shoulder because of traffic risk. Within seconds I saw road sign saying
"Pine Bush." Passed same but doubled back onto 17 and then 302
and a side road off 302 in direction of apparent landing looking for object
but did not see it again. There are no airports close by Two Very Bright
Lights, vertical position, of the.
-
- HUDSON RIVER -- On January 12, 2002, the witness reports
seeing a formation of two very bright lights, that looked like they where
stacked on top of one another. The witness drives home parallel for 25
minutes along the Hudson River between Mechanicville and Saratoga. As she
drove along the river she couldn't see anything except the bright lights.
At first, she thought it was an airplane but it was hovering and the lights
where arranged differently, and they were too big and bright to be an airplane.
The witness reports, "At the same time I looked around because they
would keep disappearing and reappearing." I also saw a plane way to
the right of the strange craft that was moving and blinking like planes
do. I kept watching for this strange formation, and finally stopped my
car and watched, because when the lights would go away, there was 'nothing'
there. Then it would appear in the same spot again, not moving. All of
the sudden it just disappeared and was gone. Thanks to Peter Davenport

- NORTH CAROLINA OVAL OBJECTS HOVERING MILITARY
JETS
-
- JAMESTOWN (ADAM'S FARM) -- The witness reports, "On
January 12, 2002, I stepped outside my work to have a cigarette with a
coworker at 5:30 PM." We watched what we thought were some kind of
strange aircraft then as we studied more we noticed that the aircraft was
not anything of this earth. They moved in ways that I have never seen.
They just stopped and hovered for a long period. My coworker and I were
spooked about the whole thing so we went back inside. We went to leave
work just a little while later and there were several military jets flying
over Jamestown. We thought this whole thing was weird! He then called and
reported this to WGHP and WFMY television. He then called Piedmont Triad
Int. Airport and spoke with the airport authority. They said that they
didn't get any reports from air traffic control, but they did say that
the military doesn't always report what they're up to

- GEORGIA INVESTIGATION OF MULTIPLE
GLOWING OBLONG OBJECTS
-
- WHITESBURG CHATSWORTH -- State Director Tom Sheets reports
he visited the primary witness (PW) on September 10, 2001, and received
a thumbnail description and sketches of the event. Upon arrival PW stated
that more objects/lights had traveled off into the distance and disappeared
just before my arrival. Tom surveilled the area until about 3:00 AM with
negative results.
-
- SIGHTING ACCOUNT -- Event location is a 500+ acre tract
of land consisting of woods and fields with the Chattahoochee River as
the eastern boundary of the tract. The home of PW is an antebellum southern
plantation house in excellent condition; in fact this tract was once a
large plantation before and during the War of Northern Aggression and is
currently preserved in a natural state for deer hunting. The home sits
on a prominent rise overlooking the tract to the N, NE, and E. The actual
interview took place at the witness' home on September 15, with other family
members also present. MUFONGA Field Investigator George Lainhart was also
present and assisting this inquiry. PW indicated that during the first
half of June, exact date unknown, his 18 year old son came into the house
one night at about 10:30 PM and woke him up saying there was a strange
craft over the property that had lit up the area in clear, mild weather.
PW went outside into his front yard and observed what appeared to him to
be a glowing oblong object off to the northeast hovering just over the
trees near the river at what he estimated to be about 500 yards away. PW
stated, "He got out his binoculars and looked and rather than seeing
a glowing object, under magnification it appeared to have a ring of red
and white lights around a center line, the white lights very bright, with
the red lights seeming to blink in sequence around the object." The
object was about 1/2 inch long/wide at arm's length and illuminated the
treetops in that vicinity. At this point, the other family members were
also outside. PW then took up his large high candlepower spotlight used
for night fishing and shined the beam on the object and received a dramatic
reaction.
-
- The object immediately flew SW at INCREDIBLE speed closer
to the PW and his house and hovered over a large lone tree in front of
the house in the adjacent pasture or field. PW described this burst of
speed as unbelievably fast. He described the object in this closer location
as being at the '10 o'clock position,' and that it was about 2 inches long/wide
AAL at that time. PW stated that he was then able to see that there was
actually a solid structure behind the lights, and it appeared to be a dull
gray or very much like brushed stainless steel, similar to a DeLorean sports
car or Greyhound bus coloration. Shortly thereafter, six additional similar
objects appeared and began flying and zipping around the tract of land,
moving faster, then slower, but never again with the incredible speed described
above when Object #1 went from the 2 o'clock to the 10 o'clock position.
PW stated that at one time, three objects were stacked up in a hover, one
above the other. These events went on with no sound or other unusual affects
and at relatively low altitude for about 30 minutes, and then suddenly
all of the objects simultaneously vanished. This writer separately interviewed
the 18 year old son who first spotted the craft and alerted his father.
He said that a bright light on the field first drew his attention outside
and he went inside to rouse his dad. His account was similar to his father's,
adding that they zipped around, going off, coming back, no sound, and that
he noticed four of the objects side by side in a sort of formation right
before they vanished. Also interviewed was the 14 year old son, whose description
was similar, however the lights earlier described as being red appeared
more orangish to him. Along with his father, he also provided a sketch.
The wife of PW had similar descriptions, but said she was more aware of
the bright lights on the object's mid-line than anything else, and that
she was VERY upset about the event, having never experienced anything like
it before. She added she was very tired or weak the next day, but said
it might be from just being up late. Daughter-in-law of PW, the fifth witness,
was not available for interview. The PW was also perplexed by an event
occurring a week or more earlier than that described above. He indicated
that a close friend had visited for an overnight stay and had camped out
on a remote part of the property. The next morning before departing, he
asked the PW if he had pulled a joke on him during the night, asking if
the PW had sneaked down to his camp and shined the night fishing spotlight
on the wall of his tent. The PW said no that he had not done that. His
friend indicated that during the night an extremely bright light had shown
through his tent wall, and he had thought it might have been the PW doing
it. This individual was not available for interview, but was described
as a male, 36 year old advertising executive and licensed pilot.

- George Lainhart is a police SWAT rifle marksman and worked
for me before my retirement as Chief of Police in College Park. Lainhart
still serves in this SWAT capacity, and brought along some of his laser
range finding equipment used in his tactical enforcement duties. George
zeroed the trees indicated as being illuminated by the first object at
the 2 o'clock position and found the range to be 336 yards from the front
of the house (PW had estimated 500 yards). Next he zeroed the lone tree
in the front field at the 10 o'clock position to which the object moved
at blazing speed to then once again hover, and found the range to be 74
yards. Lainhart then proceeded to check on foot as much of the property
as he could reach, with nothing of any importance found and made photos
of the area.
-
- The PW is a 39 year old acoustical technician, married
with 2 children. Besides his employment with a major acoustical company,
he lives on this former plantation as a caretaker, living in the historic
house and looking after the grounds. Having grown up within sight of Hartsfield
Airport, this PW certainly knows what should and should not be in the sky,
and the various appearances aircraft might take in their flight. Discussions
with him about aviation in general proved this out. I found the PW seemingly
forthright, with a good grasp on reality.
-
- About 3:30 AM, upon leaving my night surveillance at
the event site, I located Officer Josh Hobbs of the Whitesburg Police Department
whose patrol zone includes the event site, but had no information regarding
UFO reports earlier in the summer. He also serves as a Carroll County Deputy
Sheriff. He did advise me that he would check with his associates and call
me if he gained any information. The local convenience store personnel,
the Newnan Georgia State Patrol Post were contacted, but no one had heard
or seen UFOs. A unique feature of this case is that there is a LARGE Georgia
Power Company generating Plant Yates about 1 mile south of the event site.
My efforts to enter and speak with the security personnel were in vain
due to the high-level security lock-down.
-
- The PW and his family had the perfect 'viewing stand'
on a small hill overlooking the property to experience this event. It was
absolute quiet with good weather conditions, with benefit of binoculars,
with 30 minutes of observation time, and a low level, relatively up close
experience. Outside of some sort of super advanced, highly technological,
super secret man-made craft Ufologists know nothing about, this did not
appear to be a man-made object(s). The object made no sound; and moved
from a hover to absolutely blinding speed from the 2 o'clock position to
the 10 o'clock position to another hover. These objects made intricate
joint maneuvers when other objects appeared; all vanishing simultaneously
as if a light switch was turned off. Of course to be ridiculous, standard
aircraft from Hartsfield International or Dobbins AFB might be considered
because their approach patterns can be seen MANY miles away to the N and
NE...tiny pin point lights with which the PW was intimately familiar...he
pointed them out to me during my night surveillance. The investigation
indicates the family is being truthful and a hoax is very unlikely.
-
- Someone not accustomed to the quick methods Ufologists
use to size a distant object wpuld be caught unawares. The close to matching
size estimation at 1008 feet and 222 feet (2.22 feet difference) tends
to demonstrate the PW is being truthful in his account and his estimation
of approximate size at both locations. If he was being deceitful, the PW
had no time when asked these questions, to figure out what to say in order
to keep everything approximately consistent in size. I do not feel that
a man-made object or other 'normal' celestial or atmospheric occurrence
was responsible for this event. I classify this case as SIGNIFICANT. Thanks
to Tom Sheets. The details, maps and sketches of the case can be seen at

- FLORIDA THREE OBJECTS WITH LIGHT BEAMS
-
- MIAMI -- The former Army witness while driving next to
a dimly lit park, on January 16, 2002, and noticed a bright red "flair-like"
light in the sky. At first, it had a tail like a comet, but it faded away.
The light continued to "glide" forward until it slowed almost
to a halt and split into three red lights, but a less intense red. The
first object continued on the same path, but the other two stayed behind
to form a triangle and became a white halogen light. The two lights that
were left behind aligned parallel to each other. Those two lights began
going up and down like the cylinders of an engine and disappeared as the
first red light continued and disappeared. Shortly after the sighting,
when the car was parked and the key was out of the ignition, one of the
windows was left down. The passenger pushed the button for the window and
without the key in the ignition, the window rolled up. To our surprise,
all of the windows were operating with the ignition off. After a minute
or so, the windows stopped like the battery had died. After we had dinner
we noticed a military search plane circling a few times at low level the
same area where we saw the UFO an hour earlier.
-
- PORT CHARLOTTE -- The witness was traveling south on
I-75 on January 16, 2002, at 7:40 PM, when a formation consisting of three
lights was sighted. One light was extremely light and two other were less
bright but of equal intensity. A light beam came from the large object,
radiating downward and moving back left to right once. The formation changed
as the distance between the bright object and the two lesser objects increased.
Then a star burst around one of the smaller lights that was extremely evident.
It looked like a burst of energy and then the light became smaller and
disappeared. The second smaller light dropped further down then became
smaller. The large light became dimmer and then displayed another burst
of light around it and grew smaller to the visible eye until disappearing.
Many cars pulled over to watch the event unfold.
-
- LAKE WALES -- On January 15, 2002, at around 7:00 PM
looking up in the northeast sky, we noticed a bright long white tail (thought
exhaust) with 3 bright long orange bars in front of it at an angle. It
traveled south for a little while, then not a sweeping turn, but it turned
left and went up and away. As it turned we saw a big circle in the middle
(silver in color, seemed to twinkle) and two smaller circles on each side
that seemed to drop from the middle one and form a triangle. The smaller
ones either faded out or went faster out of view.
-
- LIVE OAK -- The witness reports the UFO was hovering
in one spot at 7:35 PM, with three lights in a row on the sides of the
saucer on January 15. There was also a light on top. The witness stood
staring at the UFO as it got closer and larger. He says, "I could
only see the out line, but I couldn't really see a color -- if it was a
color it was a dark one. It all happened in less than a minute, and it
was gone in a flash"
-
- LAKE BUENA VISTA -- The witness noticed an elongated
orange light 15 degrees above the horizon in the eastern sky about 7:30
PM, on January 15, 2002. It was about the length of a fingernail at arm's
length, and angled at about 45 degrees upward. This initial light seemed
to 'grow' a tail which streamed downward with a bright golden glow, stretching
to one finger length (at arm's length). The cone of the light itself did
not move. The cone was like a five-pointed star which extended slightly
beyond the circular light center. After about 20-25 seconds, the 'tail'
shrunk back until only the original light was visible. Then, from the center,
two lights emerged and created a triangular pattern, half a finger-length
across at its widest span. These 3 lights were differently colored: red,
blue, and gold. Two lights moved away from the center one, creating a larger
triangular shape. First the red, then the blue light gradually faded out.
Then the gold bottom light slowly moved toward the horizon where I lost
sight of it.
-
- SARASOTA -- While driving east, on January 15, 2002,
I noticed a large gray triangular object in the sky at about 45 degrees
from me view. It was about 7:35 PM. It seemed to hover without a sound.
Eventually trees blocked my view. Triangle shape with light at each point.
(NUFORC Note: Event may have been a missile launch, possibly from a submarine.)

- ILLINOIS RED GLOWING CRAFT
-
- CHERRY VALLEY -- The witness was driving home from work
about 6:35 PM, going west on State Street on January 9, 2002, and noticed
a bright, glowing, totally red craft moving across the sky, as if it's
entire surface were lit up in darkish red neon. The red was like that of
a dark beaded glass strawberry. It was flying high, at an altitude I'd
expect to see planes, and it moved south directly across as much of the
sky in about a minute. When it was in front of me it started to veer off
to the southwest. At first, all I saw was the totally red oval light. After
a while it seemed to change position, and then what looked like 4 red,
glowing "legs" became visible. It brought to mind some kind of
bug or a crab, except that it had fewer legs. The way it flew reminded
me of a helicopter. There were no white or green lights on the craft. After
checking with MUFON, I learned others have seen "the spider"
as well. This happened on the same night, a few minutes before the sighting
of "yellow lights" in Freeport, 40 minutes to the west.
-
- OKLAHOMA STROBING HORIZONTAL LIGHTS
-
- ELK CITY -- Jim Hickman reports that, "On January
25, 2002, at 6:40 PM, I was outside preparing to go to my day job, when
I noticed an unusual light to my east, I would guess it was about 12 miles
from me at 10 degrees above the horizon. It was a series of flashing/strobing
white lights lined up horizontally. The lights were very strange; some
of the lights would "flicker" while others would "strobe."
I have never seen this type of lights before on aircraft. I'm a retired
air force aero medic, and I have had many aircraft firefighting/rescue
schools and I'm quite familiar with military aircraft types. I received
a similar sighting report in the same area a few years ago, I have it detailed
in my book, "5000 years of UFO's" by America House publishing.
The object appeared to be moving very, very slowly to the south. I got
into my vehicle and moved to a better viewing spot. I also turned on my
radios, (I'm a ham radio operator, KA5UFO), and tuned to the Clinton-Sherman
ATC tower frequency, 119.6 along with the local airport channel, 122.8,
hoping to hear the aircraft talking to the tower. No luck, then I remembered
that the CSA field is closed to air traffic until 7 am. This helped me
to rule out an aircraft. It wasn't a star, planet, weather balloon, blimp,
or swamp gas. This object was in my sight for about 5 minutes when it appeared
to make a fast turn to the east, and the lights "winked" out
and it disappeared within 5 seconds. I will have a full report filed with
MUFON as soon as possible. Thanks to Jim Hickman Author, TheHickmanReport.com,

- WASHINGTON SILVER DISK
-
- GRANITE FALLS -- The witness reports that on January
10, 2002, around 3:20 PM, when my mom and I were on our way home when I
noticed a bunch of lights and thought I saw a plane hovering above the
mountains. The object began to move closer in our direction. When we pulled
up to the stop sign it was almost over us and we could see that it was
a round silver disk with colored lights all around it. There was a smaller
silver disk rotating in the center. We got out of the car and we noticed
that it made no noise and headed west towards the water.
-
- CALIFORNIA WATER LIGHTS FLY
-
- POINT MUAGU -- The witness was by a campsite at 4:30
AM near the naval base on January 11, 2002, when he saw two lights moving
in the water with a light about 100 feet above. The one in the air started
to move side to side in a strange way. The two in the water began to move
with it. The way they moved was like no plane. The one in the air started
south towards Malibu, that's when others that looked like stars began to
follow, and scan the waters as if it was a group project. The objects were
airborne for thirty minutes and were gone. The lights in the water never
took off they seem to dive.
-
- CANADA BOOMERANG SHAPED, WHITE, RED LIGHTS,
-
- CAMBRIDGE -- The witness reports, "It was about
9:15 PM on January 27, 2002, when my boyfriend and I went out to look at
the stars as we often do. He was looking through the binoculars for several
minutes, when I heard him gasp, and he pointed. I almost couldn't believe
what I saw. There was an object with bright lights ascending from the tree's
that stopped and hovered there for about a minute or two then it slowly
flew above the house making no noise. Just as it was over the house it
picked up speed and within a minute or less it was out of sight. The UFO
was triangular shaped more along the lines of the shape of a boomerang.
It was black or gray. The lights were spectacular white along the top and
one red one on the bottom. I drew a picture of the spacecraft.

-
- LOTA -- Chilean TV cameraman captured nine apparent UFOs,
traveling swiftly across the skies of Region VIII. These objects are difficult
to determine, even in clear blue skies, and move from left to right of

- BUTACO -- According to the Corazón de María
de Angol Church, researchers of the OVNIVISION Chile group were able to
witness the transit of a UFO and capture images of this strange luminous
body through a video camera and a still camera. The capital of the Mallecas
region has recorded a significant number of UFO sightings in recent months.
The ufology team visited the Corazon de Maria Church, where they were had
the privilege of making a sighting. While photos were being taken, something
strange drew the researchers' attention. They were able to witness the
transit of a strange luminous body over the clear skies over Angol at 8:10
PM for five minutes Thanks to the. Institute of Hispanic Ufology. and Jaime

- TURKEY UFOs OBSERVED AND FILMED
-
- ADIYAMAN -- At around 11:00 PM on the night of January
26, 2002, the General Directorate of Police in Ad¦yaman received
a phone call informing that a brilliant flying object was observed at the
eastern side of the city. The Police called the patrolman on duty at Ad¦yaman-Kahta
highway at the eastern side of the city by radio, who also confirmed sighting
of the brilliant object flying in the sky. The Chief of Police was immediately
notified of this extraordinary event and a police team was sent to the
area. The police officers, equipped with night cameras, spotted the brilliant
object, which was observed to be rotating around its own axis and spreading
out colorful lights, and managed to film the object for around 5 hours.
The following night, at around 2.15 AM, two similar flying objects were
observed on the western side of the city. The objects were also filmed
by the watch guard of the Security Directorate between 2:29 and 3:00 AM
uninterruptedly, from the roof of the Police building. The Chairman of
Sirius UFO Space Sciences Research Center, Haktan Akdogan talked with the
Governor of Ad¦yaman Halil Is¦k on phone and received detailed
information about the incident. Governor Is¦k, reports five UFOs
were observed. Three UFOs were observed over Besni and Golbas¦ districts.
Twenty police officers and hundreds of civilians witnessed this incident.
The film has been sent to Sirius UFO Space Sciences Research Center at
the first stage, before other official authorities on the subject.
-
- TUBITAK, The results of this analysis is summarized as
follows: There were no bright stars or planets that could have caused the
sightings. Five objects are viewed in video images, which are glowing,
moving and much more brighter than any star. At close-ups, the objects
are rotating around their own axis. When the video images were enlarged
by computer at special assembly studios, it was observed that the objects
were scattering around lights in various colors. The brightness and proximity
of the objects reveal that these objects were inside the atmosphere and
were moving. The light beams spread out by the UFOs have been measured
by spectral photometer, which also confirmed that the objects were in motion.
The objects stood stationary time to time and hovered and then started
moving again unlike aircraft. The glowing objects do not make any sound
and exhibit an advanced technology, which does not seem to be worldly.
The characteristics of the objects mentioned above do not fit any category
of conventional aerial devices like satellite, aircraft, helicopter, air
balloon or meteor. The results of analysis reveal that these objects cannot
be a fireball, an earthquake glow, or any other kind of a plasma formation
created by a certain ionized electricity-charged particles. Thanks to Haktan
