Alabama UFO Sightings in 2000

Full Report Text:

Blue Oval Object Sited. The object was An Oval Shape with a Light Blue in Color,Moving Fairly Slow I couldn't realy tell how fast because it was far away,and I only looked at it for about five,or ten minutes because it was very cold outside. The Backround was after dark with stars,and cloudy.

At the time I just thought it was A hellocopter,but now as I think about it A hellocopter would not look blue like it did,and would move faster. Around it was A light haze,It also left A Thin White Trail behind it. ((NUFORC Note: We presume the witness means 1845 hrs.

, since he refers to "after dark with stars." PD)).

The bright star like object in the constellation of Orion. We was looking at the constellation of Orion. I saw a bright red light that caught my eye.

Then it changed to a bright white light moveing west towards us. After a minuite or so it changed to red again then turned and moved to the south south-east at a fast rate of speed. Then went out of sight.

Object was like the picture on the home page "During July" except the color was bright white. November 21, 2000 at 5:07AM I looked out my second floor bathroom window facing East and noticed the moon and stars in a clear sky. I noticed a bright object to the North East traveling in a South West direction that was a very bright white light.

I would estimate the object had to be at an altitude of 8,000 to 10,000 feet and 2 to 3 miles from my viewpoint. I assumed it was an airplane but the object was going pretty fast, faster than an airpane. At this point I thought it might be a shooting star but the object had a pulsating bright white light not leaving a trail behind it.

The object suddenly stopped for a few seconds then the glowing became very dim and dropped at a slight angle to the ground. It went out of sight behind the hills and trees for a few seconds then it moved back up to the position it dropped altitude from, began to glow bright again then took off in a climbing direction in the South East direction at a faster speed than before. It went out of sight in about five seconds.

I also noticed two aircraft in the sky at this time. I know that these pilots had to see this object. I have seen many shooting stars but have never seen one stop, fall to the ground, then return to the sky and take off again.

Got any ideas what I saw?.

Round, flat UFO with lights all around, over Hwy 78 Walker Co Alabama. I was driving my daughter and her friends back from the haunted trail on Halloween night, heading away from Jasper on Hwy 78. We were about to enter the big curve, before the river bridge, when I saw a strange light.

As we came around the curve, I saw the disc shaped object just long enough to make out the shape and see the beautiful lights on it. It was a perfectly round shape, flat on top and on bottom, with lights going all around the edges. These lights had the most beautiful color and it was a color I still have a hard time identifying (I have never seen the same exact color in my lifetime and I am now 45 yrs old).

The color that comes closest to matching would be a mix of gray and purple with a misty pink hue to it. It was brilliant and really beautiful. The lights seemed to be circling the craft, but could have been blinking.

I did not hear any noise with this sight at all. This was only within my sight for a brief but exciting minute! It flew off at a left angle then made a sharp right, around the bend at the bridge and was gone in the fog, moving very fast. One of my daughters friends was in the front with me and she and I discussed it again last month.

She barely remembers because they were young teens, but she does remember me saying "Look, there's a UFO!" My excitement over UFO's all my life made this VERY exciting for me, I really did not have any fear. After reaging about the Chicago O'Hare Airport sighting and finding your link, I made the decision to report it here. Felt it was important to add it to the list of US sightings.

((NUFORC Note: Date of sighting may be approximate, although the witness does not indicate that fact. PD)).

We pulled into the drive way and saw a full moon shaped object over the field behind the house. I am a 29 year old man. My wife and I are from AL.

I'm in the military and I was stationed at Eglin in Ft Walton Florida. I would drive up to Alabama and stay with my in-laws during the weekend and hunt. I consider myself sane, that's why I'm doing this.

On this night my brother-in-law and myself were riding around "sober" he doesn't drink. I don't remember if it was clear over us or not but there was a storm way off to the south. I remember seeing the lightning.

My in-laws house is set close to the highway, aprox. 60 yards from the road with a driveway that goes all the way around the house between it and the shop. We pulled into the east driveway at aprox.

03:00 and stopped behind the house with the truck headed south west. At the same time we looked at an object set behind the shop and over a field aprox. 200 yards away and about 100 feet off the ground.

At first I thought it was the moon because it looked just like a full moon and about the same size. Then it moved West at aprox. 30 MPH.

It never changed direction. It went about 300 yards or so and dissapeared. I didn't see a trail or anything.

It just vanished. I know there's some explination for it, I just don't know what it is. That's one reason I'm writing this.

We told family members but we didn't report anything. We very seldom ever talk about it. I told my dad about it and he said that my uncle and cousin had a very similiar experience in Camden AL.

It would have been in the late 70s early 80s. He says they were looking at the full moon and then noticed that there was two of them. Then one moved and dissapeared.

Maybe it's hereditary. Ha Ha. I wasn't going to write but I see that some other people on here have seen a similiar full moon type object.

Just thought I'd share my experience. Keep up the good work. ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate.

Location in Alabama is unknown to us. PD)).

EGG SHAPED WITH A T IN FRONT AND UNUSAL LIGHTS I WENT OUT SIDE TO THE CAR TO GET MY PURSE OUT OF IT . AND LOOKED UP TO THE SKY AND SAW ODD SHAPED OBJECT ABOVE IT WAS DARK I COULDN'T TELL WHAT COLOR IT WAS BUT THE WAY THE LIGHT PATTERN LOOKED IT WAS SHAPED LIKE AN EGG WITH A T ON THE FRONT. IT HAD SOME INTERESTING LIGHTS ON IT BLUE RED GREEN AND YELLOWISH ORANGE FLASHING ONE AT A TIME ((NUFORC Note: The witness does not indicate whether the sighting occurred in the moring, or at night, but we presume it occurred in the morning, given the time of submission of the report.

We have entered that time here. As a result of the time indicated, the object obviously was not a twinkling star. PD)).

Daphne, AL (50 mi. west of Gulf Breeze.) I play bass in a classic rock band, and had just left our studio when I saw what I thought was a small plane through the trees, over the east end of the Bay Bridge on Mobile Bay.

Just a couple of red and white lights. As I drove the approx. 3/4 mile to the bridge, I caught glimpses of it through the trees until I turned north on a parallel street to Hwy 98, expecting to get a good look at it.

It wasn't there. Now, this is the weird part. The second I thought 'Well, where the h.

', it flared bright, just long enough for me to see it, then dimmed to the way it had been at first, right over the center of the street about 1/4 mi. away and maybe 500 ft. high.

It was two concentric circles of round lights, the whole craft about the size of a nickel at arm's length, the outer ring was 7 or 8 red lights with an inner ring of 5 or 6 white lights, non-rotating, no movement, no sound. I lost sight of it for about 20 - 30 sec. turning west, then north coming up to the bridge, then I looked east down I-10 and it was almost out of sight, moving FAST toward Pensacola.

In 25 sec, it had traveled close to 8 miles, that works out to around 1,200 m.p.h.

! No small feat, and apparently no small plane either.".

very quick moving object the first time i seen it was really awesome it was in the southwest skys from i-65 and alabama hwy 157 cullman alabama up with the stars, a very bright light it would move very quickly up and down and side to side then it move very quickly in a circular motion then just stop.for a little bit.then repeat it over again not in the same pattern .

it has been there every time i have went out and looked please get in touch and let me know whats going on. ((NUFORC Note: The report sounds to us to be somewhat reminiscent of a "twinkling" star, or alternatively, an advertising light. That is only a guess.

PD)).

ETV's (Extra Terrestrial Vehicle) sighting my wife and i were laying on lawn chairs outside after dark.it was a clear night.looking straight up, i saw what i thought was a plane, and my wife watched it with me.

it was a white light moving like a plane high in the sky.suddenly and magnificently, it did a perfect quarter-circle maneuver, paused for perhaps a half second and then shot across the sky in less than a second.perhaps a hundreth of a second (there was no exceleration, this was instantaneous speed).

the craft was certainly being flown and maneuvered by an intelligence.and was truly an ETV (Extra Terrestrial Vehicle).the perfect quarter circle turn, and the abrupt split second trip across the night sky could not have been anything of a natural cause.

it just looked like a plane in the night sky at an average speed, until the craft was maneuvered by this unknown intelligence to make a quarter-circle turn, and then this unknown intelligence did something to make the craft shoot across the sky.until that night, my wife did not believe in UFO'S (ETV's).that was truly an extraordinary experience.

i dont care what anyone else beleives.I KNOW ETV's ARE REAL, AND THEY ARE HERE.my guess is they have been watching and observing this planet perhaps for millions of years.

football or egg shaped silver ufo floated over mountain crest in alabama. I am very disappointed in a lot of what is published on the internet ect, that's why I'm writing this report. origionally, I just met with the investigator(bill)at a waffel house in birmingham al at the time(my memory has always been foggy when it cames to dates and times- but not with events).

So, if this does get published, I want to say that there is "NO DOUBT" in my mind asd to what I saw! I'll get to it, then say my thoughts on the matter on a whole. Driving twards birmingham al, on a slight up-hill twards a ridge(small to med height), a silver glowing object (substantially large) came over the crest at my "2-oclock" and landed approx. where a mall area is.

another went into the air and assended with "great speed". To be more specific, it didnt go too far into the air(200-300 ft) before it really shot away!. what was comming twards me(the driver of the car didnt see it) was moving "as if it had leaped the mountain top" and came down very knowingly and controlled.

I even saw the silver color hit the ground at the ridge. Therefor, I say it was 2 that i saw, though not at the same time. seemed like one came and the other left.

I was very scared! i thought that a missle was comming or something. I don't know when the fear left and the realization began, but I sure didnt stop the car or tell the driver till we were well away. he was a bit mad about it, but I know better than to mess with what I dont know about.

well, that's it. no weird dreams or sudden realizations of an "antimatter energy".

I watched the object from my front yard as it changed size, shape, direction, speed and finally disapeared. Description: On Tuesday July 18, 2000 at about 11:35 p.m.

I stepped out my front door and onto my front poarch to smoke a ciggarette. It was a clear night and you could see all the stars, so I stepped off my poarch and into my front yard to look at the stars, when I turned and faced the house, (looking East N.E.

), I noticed 4 stars together. As I started to look to my left I noticed that one of the 4 stars appeared to be growing in size and changing color, but it was stationary. The color was very similar to that of the planet Mars as observed from the ground at night.

I simply thought that what I was seeing was simply a planet or twinkling star, that is when I glanced back at the other 3 stars in the group and noticed that this "object" was now 2-3 times larger than the stars that it was next to and had completely change color from a white "star" color/appearance to an orange/yellow color. The "object" began to suddenly move to my left in a straight line paralell to the horizon. It moved at a rate of speed like that of an airplane for about 10 seconds and then stopped in the center of the star group.

It stayed stationary and both its size and color returned to that similar to the stars around it. It remained stationary in the star group for about 30 seconds and then it changed both size and color again and began to move to my lower left (at a 45 degree angle to the horizon). At this point it change shape from a circlular appearance to an elongated appearance, but its speed actually slowed until it pasted the star group that I was using as a reference point.

Once past the stars it increased speed and made a sudden change in direction to my upper left, (at a 45 degree angle to the horizon in an upward direction). At this point the suddenly disappeared. There were no visible clouds in the sky.

I first suspected a planet, as I said, but ruled it out with movement. I then suspected a satelite until the object stopped moving the first time. After the shift to the lower left and both color and shape change I suspected a shooting star, but was completely surprised when it changed direction and moved in an uppward direction and disapeared.

I suspected that maybe it might be a test of some type from Redstone Arsenal here in town, but after realizing that it was in the opposite direction, I gave up on ideas. Can you help? What is this or am I just crazy and seeing things. Contact: ((personal data deleted)).

Bright, Neon Green Oval shaped craft seen on the Alabama coast right after sunset. One bright, neon green oval shaped craft seen moving at a high rate of speed East to West paralell with the shoreline along the Alabama coastline shortly after dusk. Craft moved horizontal with no other changes in direction observed.

Craft/object simply disappeared. Two witnesses looking in the direction of the sighting confirm.

I was looking in a telescope when I saw a object in front of a star.I looked away thinking it was a star then I forced myself to look back.The UFO now was moving west with lights around it.

Somehow my telescope would not pick it up.In a few seconds the lights went out like it was hiding from me.The UFO did not come back in sight.

A bright objeck was seen in the Southwestern sky, about 22:00 hrs. I had just gone onto my back porch when I saw the object. I Thought at first it was a plane coming in for landing, as it was flashing blue and red, white lights.

It never moved, however. I am a retired RN, and my son, who also saw the object, is a Respiratory Therapist. He was getting ready to go to work, and usually leaves 22:30 hrs.

I called him out to see the object, and he became very excited when he saw it was pulsating lights, but not moving. We went outside with binoculars, but the binoculars did not help, only confirmed it was not moving.It appeared to be very high up, at the level a commercial airplane flies.

I called my sister, who lives about 1/4 miles from me. She verified the same sight. She is a teachers assistant at a local school.

None of us has ever seen a UFO, and we were trying to be objective, like it might be a star, or whatever, but it was too bright and pulsating to be a star, and it wasn't moving. Has anyone else reported seeing this object?.

One at a time appeared each in a different direction, a total of 3. Then all 3 disappeared instantly, and reappeared all at once in different directions. Then they all disappeared for good.

Full Report Text:

One large triangular craft with one dim light on each end and a smaller craft which looked like a helicopter. Both of which made no noise. I was traveling North on Highway 65 when I noticed a very large triangular shaped craft and a smaller craft which crossed over the interstate traveling around 50 mph.

The larger craft had 3 small dim lights at each end of the triangular shape and a larger red light on one side. The smaller craft had many lights and looked more like a helicopter. By the time I had reached the part of the interstate where they had crossed, they were over the trees heading southeast.

I stopped my car on the side of the road, got out, and continued to watch these two craft continue to travel very slowly. I heard no noise at all from these two craft. I got back in my car and continued to travel North.

About 5 minutes later I saw about 6 military helicopters cross the interstate in the opposite direction. I knew they were helicopters by the very loud sound their blades made. This all happened about 20 or 30 miles south of Montgomery, AL at 9:15 pm.

3 almost transparent, almost circular (amoeba shaped), phosphorous neon-green entities flying in a triangular formation. all 3 witnessess estimate that the altitude was approx. 30 feet and the objects were approx.

the diameter of a basketball hoop, but were very thin from top to bottom. we watched them suddenly appear from the north and fly in a straight line over the house and past the trees to the south where they dissapeared as quickly as they came.

a triangular shame with white lights marking the corners no lines conecting the dots but flying in syncronized form. to far in the sky to be a plane. flew across the sky for a minute and then dissapeared.

I saw a green-yellow light flash across the sky. It was too fast to be a plane and it wasn't a searchlight or anything. It flashed across, the curved sharply.

The object was roundish, green-yellow, and traveled extrememly fast. I almist didn't catch it, I just happened to be looking at the moon and it went right below the moon.

Full Report Text:

In February of 2000, I was on routine patrol at approx. 0230 hrs CST. As I drove behind the local High School, I observed three lights in the distance behind the local Elementary School.

These lights were close together and a equal distance apart. The color of the lights would change from white to orange (amber?) and back to white. The lights were moving in a west to east direction.

As the lights got closer, I observed that this was in fact an object with three lights of equal size spaced equally apart. The moon was to my south southeast full or nearly full. I opened the drivers side door of my patrol car and stood on the ground observing this object.

The object was going approx. 50 knots and there was no sound. I could hear my police radio and the motor in my patrol car running.

The object, which was now just west and south of me appeared triangular and black or a dark color. The object passed above and behind the High School football field and wa! s slightly longer than the field. The altitude of the object was approx.

800 - 1000 feet AGL. For some reason, I reached into my patrol car and activated my emergency lights and grabbed my Bushnell 10 X 50 binoculars. Observing the object through the binoculars, I could see a couple (I don't remember now if it was 2 or 3 rows) of windows similar in shape to commercial pressurized aircraft.

These windows were in staggered rows. I could also see artificial light coming from inside the craft through these windows. I could see the moonlight reflecting off the object.

I grabbed my Maglite rechargeable flashlight, which is 30,000 candlepower, and shined it at the object. As the object moved from my right front to left and passed above and behind the south end of the High School, it instantly made a 90 degree left turn (there was no bank when it turned) and moved northbound until it disappeared. These three lights I have mentioned always faced me even after the object mad! e the 90 degree turn from west to north.
