Alabama UFO Sightings in 1993

Full Report Text:

UFO, resembling a star, flying across Trussville, AL, in approximately 1993. The unidentified object that I witnessed most closely resembled a star (circular light), but slightly larger. It was not flickering like a star typically might.

The object was moving north faster than an airplane typically would. The object seemed to be flying in a straight line, not curving, etc. The object had no sound that I could hear.

At the time, I was approximately 13 years old. I was travelling north on I-59 with my parents. I did not attempt to draw their attention to the object, though I wished I had now knowing that having other witnesses helps collaborate a report.

((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. We have assigned an arbitrary date in 1993 above. PD)).

Triangular craft whit no lights or exhaust flying way too slow at less than 100 feet off the ground A triangular craft flew over my house; twice in less than one hour. My son and I were watching a movie on television; a rental of "Silence of the Lambs" when I felt a vibration and looked at my glass of coke;it was vibrating.My son sayes he heard something outside but I don't remember hearing anything.

We then went to the front door and looked out and didn't see anything so we checked the back door and saw a craft in the distance flying away. We just assumed it was a test plane from Ft, Rucker as it is a pilot training center.We then went back to our movie.

A few minutes later(15 to 30 minutes). I felt the vibration again so we checked the back door but didn't see anything.Then we checked the front .

While looking strait out we didn't see anything.This confused us because we knew it was back.I then looked strait up and saw just black.

It was a clear night so the stars were visible but I couldn't see anything but blackness. I touched my son and pointed, we just stood there stairing at blackness. Then a light reflected off of it and I saw a matalic surface above us.

I was tempted to throw a rock at it because it looked that close.Slowly it proceeded off towards Ft.Rucker and we went back inside.

We realised it was flying really slow and very, very low but at the time didn't think anything about it. The second flyover took apx 5 minutes too clear the house and another five to fly out of sight. I didn't think about it again till I heard about others on Art Bell.

I started thinking again and remembered that it had no lights and no exhaust. ((NUFORC Note: Witness does not indicate the date of the incident. Assuming that the correct date might be 21FE05, we temporarily have assigned an assumed date above, and will correct it when we have heard back from the witness.

PD)) ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) I don't know the date;it was sometime in the late spring or early fall of 1993. That's the best time I can give you. ((END)).

On that night it was very cold. I had carried the trash out and notice a bright light at the horizon. Being fascinated by all things in space I just stood there and watched.

I lived by myself then and had no camera. I was so fascinated I might not have thought of it anyway. I had a very rare opportunity to watch this craft move very slow and was moving due west.

I would guess it was moving less than 20mph I am not sure the duration of time elapsed But as it moved closer I knew this was not a normal thing. It passed over my next door neighbors house and even cast enough light to see shadows. It move so slow that I was able to really get a great look.

To my eyes it would be as long as a pencil help at arms length. And as reported by others it made no sound. I remember thinking ";there is no sound.

" I told all of my friends and family. Drew everyone a picture and talked about it for months. About 3 years ago a friend call me to tell me he had seen exactly what I drew on TV.

Wishing I had seen it to, life went on. Tonight on the Discovery channel I saw the show about sightings and so the video shot by another sighting. The craft in the video is what I saw.

I could not ever describe it better. The really strange part was it flew backwards, flying with a flat side first. I had not ever seen this footage until tonight.

The cold chills that I had that night have returned.
