NEW YORK: DISK SIGHTED.

ONEIDA, MARCY COUNTY — Five witnesses observed a disk-shaped craft on Saturday, March 24, 2001.  “The craft had red and green flashing lights with some beams of light coming from it and it hardly moved and floated in the East.  Aircraft surrounded it.  We all watched it for about two hours.  The object was a white light but you could still tell it was disk-shaped.  It had red lights and green lights on the bottom and looked as if it was tilted and spinning.

“It hovered in the same spot most of the time.  It lasted from around 8:00 PM to about 10:00 PM, and when I came back to see if it was still there, it was gone – totally disappeared.”

CALIFORNIA: DISK-SHAPED OBJECT SLOWLY MOVING.

MAMMOTH LAKES — I was camping out near Mammoth Mountain when the crickets stopped chirping at 3:45 AM on August 7, 2001.  From the West, I noticed a dark disk shaped object slowly moving and stopping as it made its way towards my location.  I was inside my sleeping bag next to my girlfriend who was asleep.  The object got within fifty feet and I was frozen in fear and curiosity.  I watched the craft slowly slip by, stopping for a few seconds at a time and continuing.  There was a very slight hum.  The craft emitted a dull blue beam from the far edge of the disk as though it was searching for someone.  The craft was now clearly visible as a shiny disk and came to a complete stop.

I crawled towards it hoping it didn’t detect me.  I kept thinking that this craft might have infrared or heat sensors to detect any movement outside but there was no deviation from its course/task.  At one point, the craft got to about 2 feet from the ground and the humming became louder.

I got back without causing any notice when the craft became enveloped by the surrounding area.  It became invisible but with a slight atmospheric distortion.  I watched this mirage-like phenomenon float upwards until I could not see it anymore.  Five minutes later, the crickets started again and I stayed up all night.

This has changed my life forever and makes me realize we are not alone.

INDIANA: PHOTOGRAPHED UFO RETURNS.

INDIANAPOLIS — Angela R. Clark, a former policewoman, photographed a UFO on August 7, 2001.  She writes, “When I was 8 or 9 years old, I saw my first UFO.  A few days after that sighting my best friend and I were out playing at night when we heard some strange ‘music’, which sounded like an Ice Cream truck.  We looked above the treetops and saw an Ice Cream truck that was flying.  I have been terrified of those trucks ever since!

“Last night, I went outside about 12:45 AM and it started to rain with lightening.  That’s when I heard it.  I heard ice cream truck music!  My husband, the skeptic, heard it too.  I came inside and got in bed as my husband was turning off all the lights.  ICE CREAM TRUCK MUSIC was right outside of my 2-story window!  It was so clear and distinct; you would think that it was literally outside of the window.  My husband looked at me and said, ‘Did you hear that?’

“It doesn’t make sense an ice cream truck would be out at 1:00 in the morning, during a storm!  What the heck is going on?”

Thanks to Angela and Jim Osborne MUFON Investigator.

(Editor’s Note):  George Hansen has written a new book called, “The Tricksters”.  Many true UFO stories have this strange trickster or joker aspect.

NEW YORK: FLYING DISK.

BROOKLYN — Gil Rodriguez writes; “I was in the kitchen on October 24 or 25, 2000, at about 9:00 p.m. when my 15 year old daughter came running downstairs yelling and crying that she saw something strange and large flying across the sky outside her window.  I ran upstairs, looked to the west, and saw this well-lit object moving across the sky.  It looked like a huge disk (hamburger-shaped) floating slowly across the sky without any sound.

“My daughter was very scared and still crying.  She didn’t sleep that night and didn’t sleep much for about a week.  The object had a flashing or strobe light on the top.  Below that there was a row of windows with yellowish light shining out all the way around to the left and right.  Below the windows was a row of lights of different colors around the middle that went on and off in sequence very quickly (blue, green, yellow, white but not exactly in this order).  The bottom half was sort of dark with no lighting.

“I was in complete awe of this huge object that was bigger than I had ever seen in the sky.  It seemed almost as wide as two 747 aircraft.  I would guess it was at least 75 to 100 yards wide.  I then remembered my loaded cameras, but when I returned to the back yard it had gone out of sight.

“This was the third sighting for my daughter and me.  She had seen a similar huge hamburger-shaped craft with her niece in late 1999.”

OREGON: FAST MOVING DISK.

ST. HELEN’S ‑‑On June 26, 2002, the witness woke up around 3:00 AM, and looked out the bedroom window and saw an object that measured about 1/16th of an inch, eight inches higher than her nine-foot arborvitae hedge, which is ten feet from the house.  “The object first caught my eye as a white light, speeding left to right.  It stopped and I could see what appeared to be white lights rotating around the disk-like bottom.

“Then, fifteen seconds later, it moved quite rapidly about four inches to the right and stopped.  After thirty seconds it moved rapidly right to its original position.  This was repeated four times.  I watched for fifteen minutes.”

NEW JERSEY DISK LIT UP.

KEARNY ‑‑ Patrick Huyghe reports, “My name is Sergey. And on August 31, 2002, my wife Natasha and I saw something, which we could not classify, as an ordinary event.  About 11:30 PM, I came to the kitchen to take a coke from refrigerator.  The light in the room was off but I did not turn it on because I came only for short time.  Since it was dark in the room the light object suddenly appeared in the window and drew my attention.  It was a disk‑shaped, brightly lighted object flying in the sky.  It came out from behind the tree and crossed the part of the sky visible from our window and disappeared behind the building.

“It was about 5 miles away above Newark and heading west or northwest and was moving fast.  I cannot judge the object’s size but can assume it was the same or larger than a passenger aircraft and flying below the clouds.  I observed it for about 10‑15 seconds.

“I called my wife, Natasha, who was just in the next room and she also saw it but for less time.  We are absolutely sure the object was real and are amazed.”

VIRGINIA: DISK UFO SIGHTING.

POQUOSON ‑‑ The witness reports, “I saw a brilliant, bright light streaking across the sky on September 15, 2002, something that I have never witnessed in my life.  At about 9:35 PM, I was driving and stopped my van to look as the object traveled across the sky at an extremely high rate of speed and disappeared.  I contacted Langley Air Force Base who confirmed that they had no aircraft up tonight.  We had cloudy conditions due to a tropical depression.  I also contacted the local TV station but they had no other calls.”

There have been no meteor reports.

WASHINGTON: FAST‑MOVING DISK SAUCER SHAPED LIGHT.

RENTON ‑‑ I saw one UFO moving very fast across the sky on October 12, 2002.  I was in the military and I’ve seen A‑10′s moving at high speed and low altitude but this was the fastest I’ve ever seen anything move.  What I saw was a little more than a half circle of light, with the brightest section facing the direction of movement, kind of like you would expect a meteor to look as it was coming down through the atmosphere.  It appeared about the size of a quarter from my perspective.

CALIFORNIA: FLYING SAUCERS SEEN BY POLICE.

BURBANK ‑‑ The witness was monitoring the 8 PM radio transmissions of Burbank Airport Police units talking to each other on their radios.  The various police units in different locations were observing six objects flying over the Burbank Airport on February 16, 2003.  They were discussing six flying saucers and contacted the tower.  The tower contacted the Burbank police helicopter that began searching for the objects.

“I’m sure all of this radio traffic was recorded by the city of Burbank 911 center.  Also, the tower transmissions would be recorded by the FAA.  I, personally, did not see the craft and only heard the radio communications.”

CALIFORNIA DISK.

LIVERMORE ‑‑ I was driving north on Route 680 near Pleasanton on February 4, 2003, and, as I came down the mountain pass at 11 PM, I saw two shooting stars come down and split directions.  I looked out my right hand window and saw the bottom of a circular, dark disk ‘float’ past with an “eclipse” on the bottom.

I’m highly positive what I saw was a craft of some sort, and I know I saw the shooting stars just before the UFO.  It may have been the same thing.  There were no lights as it floated by, just the grayness of the bottom of the disk.

New Mexico – UFO Expands 500 Times its Size.

The January 1 (2004) sighting of the flat disk in Flowery Branch, GA, reminded me of a UFO I saw near Los Alamos, NM, Monday evening of Memorial Weekend, 1983.  A friend and I were camping when we saw a round, white light moving slowly on the ground in a zigzag pattern on the side of a hill, several miles to the east.  We assumed it was an army tank on maneuvers, as it would go over the hill, disappear and return to our side of the hill.  After about fifteen minutes of zigzagging, it suddenly rose into the sky and hovered over the hill for about five minutes.  Not really believing in UFOs at that time, I thought it was a Harrier jet as I groped for a “logical explanation.”

As the white light hovered over the hill, it suddenly expanded so fast (like a controlled explosion) to about 500 times its original size.  It floated obliquely to the south and much nearer to us.  My friend and I felt like targets and were terrified.  We jumped into our rental car but the car wouldn’t start.  It was completely dead.  Strangely reasoning that “they” wanted the car, we got back out.

The object stopped at 2,500 feet up and about 2000 feet from us.  It was shaped like a huge disk with a flat side facing us.  I heard a quiet, pulsating, high‑pitched hum that almost made my ears hurt.  I felt the hair on my head and arms rise, as if static electricity was strong.  At arm’s length the object would have been a yard in diameter.  It began to slowly flip over backwards.  As it flipped over, the thin edge of the disk was completely transparent – we could see stars through it.  As it flipped over to its other side, it was opaque again and was bright red, like a huge neon sign.

It paused for a second and seemed to “take a deep breath”.  Then it suddenly zoomed off to the size of a little star and “got lost” among the other stars.  Our car started fine after that.  It forced me to realize that UFOs are real and that our conventional science does not have the proper tools or paradigms to study this phenomenon.

California: Disk and Sphere.

VALENCIA ‑‑ Looking out my bedroom window, I observed an unusual, hovering object in the distance.  The shape was somewhat difficult to see, as it was far away and high in a dark sky.  However, three lights in a horizontal row, each light seemingly multicolored (white, pink, green but difficult to tell for sure), maintained the same position until I went to bed about an hour later.  Possible blimp?  My husband is an astrogeophysicist and said that it was the closest thing to a UFO he has ever seen.

Indiana: The Cave Road Sighting.

BLOOMINGTON – On October 14, 2004, the witness was driving west on Cave Road between 10:15 to 10:30 PM, when he observed a cloudbank, ahead of him, “light up”.  Immediately thereafter, an object with three brilliant spotlight‑like white lights descended into view.  The lights were shining down onto the ground, below and behind the object at a 45-degree angle.  The lights emanating from the craft illuminated its underside, revealing a rounded or disk-shaped structure.  As the witness’s vehicle made the turn onto Gifford Road, the object was continuing its descent, finally leveling out at tree line height.

The object came to a full stop only twenty yards ahead of the witness’s vehicle, with the three “spot lights” shining directly downward onto Gifford Road.  The object remained stationary for a few seconds, then “blinked off”.  No additional navigational lights, beacon lights or forward landing lights were observed on the large craft.  When asked about the size of the object, the witness reported, simply, that it was “big!”

From inside his vehicle, the witness could not hear any accompanying sounds from the object, nor did he experience or observe any associated physical disturbances.  Monroe County Airport is only a couple of miles east of the sighting location but is situated at a right angle to the object’s south‑to‑northwest heading.  Finally, I know the witness personally and rate his credibility as very high.

New Jersey – Miniature UFO.

MOUNT HOLLY – Jane reports, “I was sleeping next to my husband and awakened about 3 AM on December 11, 2004, seeing two, red, basketball-size lights floating in the corner of the bedroom.  I watched their movement as they generally floated or hovered in the corner.  A third red plasma like disk entered the room and flew towards the bed and hovered over my husband.  The red ball with red lights shining down stayed over him for about a minute and then flew outside through the wall.  The disk was about one foot in diameter.”

On January 6, 2005, two, red, plasma-like basketballs again appeared about 2 AM, and Jane was wide awake.  “Then a miniature disk-shaped UFO appeared from the left wall and slowly flew across the room to above my husband’s head.  The disk hovered and eventually flew through the wall.  The disk was gray and white and appeared to have windows around its center and a second set circling the bottom of the craft.  It was two feet in diameter and one foot high and was perfect in detail.  Once the craft left, the other red balls departed with it.  My husband’s health remains good except for a cold.”

Thanks to Jane for her drawings.

(Editor’s Note): We have many similar reports of miniature UFOs.  Some reports indicate the UFO’s ability to enlarge and miniaturize when needed.

INDIANA: FLEET OF DISKS.

EVANSVILLE — It was like seeing a fleet of plates, all gray except for the lights flying through the air on April 13, 2001.  We saw the visitors real early in the morning at 2:37 AM.  The disks were hovering there for about twenty seconds then they took off toward the north.  They had numerous lights on the bottom that were a reddish color and turned green when they left.  They had many weird looking fins that were in the shape of a spiral that led into the center, which constantly opened and closed.  They were very quiet except when one dropped a few hundred feet and that only sounded like a jet engine far in the distance.

WISCONSIN DISK DOES 180-DEGREE TURN.

DePERE – The witness reports, “A disk approached from south to north flying over us and then made a hair pin, 180 degree turn above us heading south again on April 11, 2001.  The disk passed less than 300 feet above us.  We could see it was darker than background night sky.  It was outlined with many small red lights.  The craft made no sound but we could feel its presence getting stronger as it came closer and diminish as it left.”

New Jersey: “wheel within a wheel”.

WEST BERLIN — Mrs. D’Imperio writes, “At 9:30 PM on September 12, 2000, our family saw a very huge lighted disk up in the sky.  My brother in-law shouted for the family to come out on the deck.  We all looked up and saw a lighted wheel with what looked like bicycle spokes coming out of it.  Another ring was on the outside.

“What amazed me was lights were coming down the spokes going around the outside of the other ring coming back to where they started and coming together, all of them in the center of the ring.  They kept repeating this action.

“Then, from another direction of the sky, came a second object that joined going around the circle but making another spoke.

“As we watched for some time, two helicopters came overhead.  One was bigger then the other and went straight for what we were watching.  They were flying around for a while.

“If I attempted to draw the UFO, it would look like a ‘wheel within a wheel’ with lights going around and coming together in the middle.  I posted this information on the web.”

INDIANA: LOW, HOVERING DISK.

ZIONSVILLE — The witnesses report seeing a saucer-shaped craft on September 1, 2001.  It had solid white lights at the ends and bottom, flashing white light on the top.  “We approached by car at 9:30 PM, and the object appeared to be standing still and not moving.  The object hovered low then disappeared completely as we got closer.”

CALIFORNIA DISK.

Last Sunday, November 11, 2001, my mother and I saw a UFO.  It was about four minutes after seven when my mother called me out of my room to our back porch.  She pointed out an object that, at first, looked like a bright star.  Then it started to move very slowly and we began to see more detail.  There was an intense red aura type of light not totally surrounding the object, just enough to make out a shape with binoculars.

This thing was far away, at least a thousand feet up and kind of a disk shape with a black mass to it.  It appeared then it would disappear for about 4 to 6 seconds.  Then a red ball object came out of the lighted end and seemed like it dropped like a flare after you shot in the sky.

I can tell you, I had never been so excited.  I finally saw one after all these years of looking in the sky.

Thanks to RT.

NEW JERSEY: DISK LOW OVER TREES.

HAZLET — Robert La Marco writes, “My wife and kid’s had a sighting of a very bright disk-shaped object over Hazlet on January 22, 2002.  I myself did not see it but they were going to basketball practice, south bound on Route 35, when my wife saw a bright disk low over the trees in the direction of Holmdel, NJ.

“She stated to me it just sat there in the sky, not moving.  Then, in the blink of the eye, it shot off east at incredible speed towards the Atlantic Ocean.  She stated to me, ‘IT WAS NO PLANE!’  Her and both my boy’s saw it very clearly.  It was at about 8:00 PM.”

NEW YORK: PULSATING OBJECT AND FIVE DISKS.

LOCKPORT ‑‑ The witness reports, “I was up at 4:45 AM, Friday on January 10, 2003, working at the computer and opened the window to get a breath of fresh air and saw in the distance a hovering light, that was pulsating colors.  It looked like somebody took a flashlight and shut it off and on repeatedly but very quickly.

“I saw white, the main color with different hues of red and yellow.  I watched this for about seven minutes and the light did not move at all, it seemed to be perfectly stationary.  I would have expected some movement.  Near the end of this event, the light became very bright and then dimmed out with a reddish hue and vanished – sort of ‘winking’ out.”

OKLAHOMA: TWO FLYING DISKS SPOTTED.

RETROP ‑ Jim Hickman reports he was contacted by a radiology technician who spotted two UFOs on June 3, 2003, near Highway 6 at about 10:35 PM just south of town.  Retrop is 130 miles west of Oklahoma City.

The witness states, “I slowed down and rolled down the window to see two disk-shaped objects with extremely bright white and red lights that flashed in sequence around the fuselage.”

No stars or other aircraft were seen.  The objects were seen for about three minutes before vanishing.  The weather was good and the objects made no noise.

She contacted two police officers in Elk City when she arrived in town.  Jim says, “I have interviewed the witness and she seems very credible.”  Altus AFB tower reported no air traffic in the area at that time.

New Jersey: Large Disk.

SURF CITY – I was notified personally concerning this sighting from a professional who has long denied the possible existence of UFOs.  She was talking with a group of friends at 1:00 AM in a gazebo overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, on August 1, 2004.  She looked out over the ocean and to the left of the full moon and noticed a large disk-shaped object with three rings of lights, one above the other, running parallel to each other.  Each row of lights had about twenty lights similar to a commercial aircraft surrounding what seemed to be a disk.

The craft was flying to the north of her location towards the Barnegat Lighthouse.  The disk wobbled as it descended on a maneuvering course towards the lighthouse.

Many similar UFO reports have accumulated through the years and a book was written concerning these sightings.  The craft appeared quite large and had multiple parallel lights similar to a three-decked ship.  The sighting is notable by this witness since she has always strongly ridiculed the concept of UFOs in the past.

Oregon: V Formation of Lights.

PORTLAND – The observer was burning small tree limbs when he saw a V formation of nine objects slowly flying north on 19 or 20 of July 2004, at 3:45 AM.  The objects were behind a sheer cloud with auras around them.  There seemed to be a slight fog around the nine disks, which made the orange a lighter color with a white aura around them.

The observer states, “The V formation sailed through the sky slowly over the house, moving north, taking up a good part of the sky.  Since there was a mist around them, I could not make out anything in detail.  It was beautiful and I was in awe.  There was no noise whatsoever.  The lights did not flash and the disks stayed in formation of the ‘V’.

“I live ten miles from an airbase but there were no aircraft flying in the area.”

Tennessee.

WASHINGTON COUNTY ‑‑ A retired algebra professor, who was driving home on Sunday, September 20, 2004, along Highway 11 around 9 PM, saw a large acorn-shaped object moving low in the sky over Buffalo Mountain.  The discernible shape was made by noting the arrangement of lights on the object, which he stated were quite like a “marquis”.  The object was flying in ever tightening circles.  The lights were flashing in random, fast way, exhibiting more than five different colors that reminded him of a Christmas tree.  He pulled his car over and watched the bizarre object rise, fall and finally moving up and behind the mountain out of view.

This witness states that, in 1966, he and his late wife, along with hundreds of Johnson City citizens, witnessed a gigantic black disk-shaped object block out all the stars in the sky on a summer night.  He also remembered that the giant disk had multiple arrangements of lights on the bottom, which flashed sequentially.

The Johnson City Press did a full-page story on the sighting.

California: Glowing Object Videotaped.

SONORA ‑‑ Between 20:00 and 21:15, at 9:45 PM, on September 9, 2004, fifteen glowing disk or orb‑like objects were seen heading in various directions, either together, one behind the other or crossing each other’s path.

One glowing object in particular flew no more than 200 yards overhead, heading to the northeast.  The object was huge, bright yellow or silver‑white in color and moved very slowly at first, as it was directly overhead.  Then it accelerated at incredible speed and rapidly disappeared over the tree line and was videotaped by both witnesses, one with a Sony Hi‑8 Camcorder on a tripod, the other with a hand‑held Sony Digital Camcorder

North Carolina.

GRANITE FALLS ‑‑ The witness was on his way to the local video store about 6:45 PM, on November 7, 2004, when he looked up and saw a disk-shaped object with white lights similar to chasing lights on a Christmas tree going all the way around this object.  There was a red light on either side of the object.  The witness states, “The disk was moving faster than anything I’ve ever seen in a straight line across the sky.”

On his way back home, he decided to investigate further and, in a rural area with lots of hills and trees, he found a UFO and another not too far from it that was identical to the first.  They seemed to be communicating with one another by way of a white light that would come out of the side of one and the other would respond.  This went on for about five seconds.  One of the objects flew away quickly while the other hovered motionless for just a couple of seconds.

They came back into close proximity once but didn’t seem to be communicating and appeared to be level with each other until one of them moved in a straight line vertically a short distance, then just as quickly, returned to a level position with the other one.

Maryland: UFO Sighting.

WOODLAWN ‑‑ Bill Bean reports, “I just wanted to report a major sighting that I had at 9:10 PM, from my home on November 29, 2004.  I observed a very large white disk-shaped UFO hovering and tilted downward in the southeast.  It was about 5,000 feet in altitude.  I watched it for nearly a minute and could not take my eyes off it.  This thing was very big and the white part was very bright with black edges.

“I was in awe of this amazing craft and didn’t move.  I initially thought the object to be the moon, as I could see the light through a thin layer of clouds.  But as the clouds passed, I saw the entire shape of the UFO.

“Suddenly, the stationary object swiftly moved away to the south and it seemed to ride on the clouds and was descending.  It was like watching a speedboat on the water.  I’ve drawn a rough sketch of it on my site.”

Pennsylvania: Light and Round Disk.

POTTSVILLE – The witness was looking out his window and saw a round, clear light appear in the sky over a ridge southeast of the city, close to the reservoir, on January 18, 2005.  “I thought at first that it was a low flying plane.  The object did not move and I heard no sound when it appeared.  It stayed stationary and emitted a bright light from 6:44 to 6:47 AM.  There was no color and it was round in shape.

“The object stayed in one spot for two minutes.  Then, it got dimmer and dimmer and moved to the west.  It disappeared and reappeared for a period of one minute then it was gone.  The object was faint gray in color and had a round sort of translucent glass barely visible with a faint light.  I looked at it through binoculars.  I had two good views of the large round light.  I, then, noticed a faint dim round disk.”

California: Four, Shiny, Disk-Shaped Objects.

CUCAMONGA – The witness was looking north towards the San Gabriel Mountains and saw four disk-shaped objects heading east on January 22, 2005, at 7 PM.  They were shiny and reflective, not unlike polished Aluminum.  A small propeller aircraft just south of the mountains started to approach and the four objects disappeared immediately as the aircraft came into view.

Ohio.

Columbus – A Glowing disk UFO was seen in Columbus on September 20, 2004, at 7:30 PM, that began traveling backwards nearly instantly.  “I cannot confirm exactly what it is that I saw.  It was flat, however, with no limbs of any sort such as wings found on an airplane.  I could slightly tell the shape was reminiscent of a disk or saucer.  It began its journey in the near proximity of the moon.  As it neared larger cloud formations, I could, at times, see that it was going behind them.  The only clouds present in the sky were the high cirrus clouds yet, like I said earlier, I could roughly discern a shape.  As it came from behind a cloud, it had lost its glow and then its shape was much more clearly prominent.  It was then a dull metallic hue.  Moments later it vanished from sight.”

Michigan.

Canton. – The witness writes, “The UFO I saw was back in 1974.  It was in Canton, MI along Canton Center rd. north of Ford Road, hovering over a small field.  I don’t remember the date but I know it was summertime, because my car window was down all the way and it was about 9:30 or 10:00 P.M.  Sorry I can’t be more accurate with these details.  BUT- I can be more accurate with my description of the UFO because I will never forget what I saw:

“It looked like a globe of light hovering about 50 or so feet above the ground.  The size of it had to be at least 5-10 feet around.  It was very bright but did not have ‘rays’ streaming off of it like a star.  It simply was a round disk of light.  The car I was in slowed down for heavy traffic and I saw the thing at first out of the corner of my eye.  It caught my attention, so I turned and looked at it.  After a few seconds, it stopped hovering and quickly shot straight up into the sky.  It stopped at a higher elevation and hovered again for a brief time, then shot up until it was out of sight.

“This all happened in about a two minute time period total – maybe even less.  I can’t say I saw any great amount of details but I am an avid aviation fan and I know what I saw wasn’t anything I knew of in existence – not even today!

“There was no noise at all!  The movements were straight lines and incredibly fast.  It moved with determination and accuracy.  I have witnessed F14′s, 15′s, 16′s, etc. flying and this was by far faster.

“I wish I had seen more of this thing.  The only thing I know for certain is that it was a UFO.  Nothing else can do what it did.  I never wrote this down or made any notations about the date.”
