Alabama UFO Sightings in 2003

Full Report Text:

blue,red , green lights flickering from the object. i observed this while walking to my hunting spot 5:11 in the a.m.

walking to my hunting spot i noticed a brigt flickering star in the sky that was different from the others, as i watched more closely the star began to zig zag very erratically. i raised my scope to try and make it out and i could see red, green, blue flashes of light coming from the object as it seemed to zig zag and progress slowly. i've never seen anything like this before and there is no explanation of what it was i saw other than a ufo.

((NUFORC Note: The description is not inconsistent with a sighting of a "twinkling" star, but that is only a guess. We do not know what the witness observed. PD)).

A fast triangular-shape without any noise which disapeared seconds after sighting. My mom and I were taking a break from watching a football game when I saw a triangular shape that was identical to the "logan's UFO". It simply just flew over and I first noticed and said "Mom Look!".

She looked up and saw it right before it disapeared. It did not make a noise, but simply flew right across the sky and disapeared.

Three to four different oblects together being attacked by jets. It was about 11:23 Pm and i was heading home from work and i looked up in the sky through the front windsheild of my car and i saw about 3 to 4 red,blue,green,and white objects they looked like they were together in a straight line. Then some jets came tward it and it looked like they blew it up i live near an army base and we have jets and other flying vehicles flying over all the time so i would have been able to know weather it was a jet of some sort or not.

It looked like nothing i had ever seen before. they were at a high spot in the sky they stayed in that spot for about 4 minutes and then faded.

Triangular shaped craft with three dimmly lit lights on the bottom of it and It was following something on the interstate going south. Me and my girlfriend and our two freinds were watching a movie one night and I decided to take a smoke break. I was about half way done with my smoke and for some reason I looked straight up in the sky and just as I did I saw a very vivid triangular craft.

It was very cloudy and overcast that night. The only way someone else could have seen It was if they were looking straight up. Anyway, it was a very large craft and it was moving very slowly following the interstate I-65 going south like it was following something on the Interstate.

It had three distinct circular lights on the bottom of the craft which was flat. The craft was black in color. I could not say for sure how high up this thing was but If it would have been a jet It would have shook the place at that altitude.

I remember hearing a lot of traffic (tractor trailers) on the interstate that were heading south. This thing whatever it was, I believe was following trucks on the interstate for some reason. Maybe Military? Transport of nuclear waste? After I spotted it I yelled at everyone to come outside and look and by that time it had dissapeared into the clouds.

This thing had no flashing lights on it anywhere. Just the three dimmly lit lights on the bottom. I saw two or three aircraft in the area to the south but I never saw the craft again.

Like I said it was very overcast and this thing was using the clouds as cover. The clouds were very low to the ground that night. It was only visible for about 15 seconds due to the cover of the clouds.

I dont think this was a little green man ship. My thoughts are It was top secret military craft that was watching or protecting something that was being transported on the interstate in tractor trailer trucks. ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate.

PD)).

Bulky Conical object abducts human I couldnt make out the color of the craft altought i believe it to be black. It was shaped like an ice cream cone and even had the circle on top. It wasnt very bright but it wasnt natural either.

The other witness was the guy in it. I believe he was abducted.He seemed to have been steering the craft.

I didnt actually see any of the creatures though i believe the human was under their control. The craft was making noise also. It sounded like an innnocent children's song.

That was probly the scariest part. I tried to save the guy inside but it sped up and he yelled at me. He seemed to say "Your'e too old".

I took it as an insult. The craft never left the ground surprisingly enough. After that i didnt see it again.

Crystalline Object appears briefly near Mount Cheaha in the Talladega National Forest. I was just finishing work for the day, and was standing on the back porch of my place of employment. The day had been overcast and rainy.

but at that time the sky had begun to clear and the sun had started to set. The still-heavy clouds were a brilliant array of orange, pink, purple, black and white, with some spots of clearing. I was standing facing south.

preparing to go down the steps and into the parking lot when I noticed a sparkle of light emerge from one of the clouds, and pass through a clear spot of sky blue. The shape of the object was like a crystal, shining and with multiple facets from which the sun reflected. The object was spinning very fast, and it quickly passed through the clear patch of sky and on up into another cloud.

I did not see the object again after that, but felt disoriented and lightheaded, and had experienced about 10 minutes of missing time. The shining object was near Mount Cheaha in the Talladega National Forest, which is easily viewed from the back steps of the business where I am employed (a historical landmark) That same night I had an array of strange dreams about being taken up into a spacecraft.

On my way home from class this afternoon, I saw a very shiny object in the sky. It looked like a shiny egg lying on its side. Driving home from school, approximately a mile and a half from my home, I looked up at the sky and saw what I thought at first was a plane.

What got my attention was the fact that it was very shiny, like aluminum foil, and the sun glaring on it made it shine that much more. I then realized that it was not like any plane that I had ever seen before. It was more of an egg shape with the egg lying on its side.

As I was trying to see it better, it moved up and away from me. The thing moved out of site within 3 - 4 seconds and was completely gone. I tried to see it again, but didn't have any luck.

Any clues about what this might be??? I would love to know.

I saw an red glowing arrowhead shaped object hovering in the sky. Me my fiancee and her two children ages 5 and 7 were traveling westbound down HWY 72 to Cherokee,Al to do some star gazing bc I'm into amateur astronomy, it was around sunset and we both looked like at the exact same time and said what is that?.I saw a arrowhead shaped object with a redish glow, it was pointing directly up and was hovering in the sky at a fairly high altitude as we drove on it seemed to be getting lower to the ground and we were really curious at this point as to what it was.

I pulled over into a church parking lot on the left side (opposite side of the hwy from the object) as I was getting out of my jeep the object rotated from vertical pointing towards the sky to horizontal facing south , I noticed there were kids playing in the church parking lot and I didnt want to have a bunch of people staring at me looking at this with my binoculars.I got back on the hwy and pulled over a quarter of a mile from the church into the "Orba" plant driveway I ran to the back to get my binoculars and the objects point swung around slowly and pointed at us.I finally got my binoculars out of the bag and was walking around to the side of the car to avoid getting hit by a car just as I got the binoculars out of the their case the object disappered.

It didnt fly away, it didnt move at all, it just vanished.

Triangle Shaped craft between Opp and Andalusia Me and my girlfriend were driving home from the Movie Theatre in Andalusia and we saw this triangle shaped craft with a blue light on the left and a red light on the right both lights were flashing. There were a few lights underneath the craft. It hovered for a few minutes above the trees and follwed the car until about the Opp city Limits, where it moved off and then disappeared.

Most people I have told this too say it is a helicopter or airplane. There was no sound, and there aren't any airplanes around this area that can hover for a few minutes. If it were a helicopter you could have heard the sound of the blades but there was nothing but silence.

Strange stationary lights in the sky. I noticed several objects in the sky about the size of stars. However, they were blinking from red to blue to white rather quickly.

I assumed they were normal aircraft at first, but they didn't move. I checked hours later and they were in the same spot. One appeared larger and I assume it was closer.

Upon magnified viewing of the closest one, I could make out 3 lights side by side.

Full Report Text:

((NUFORC Note: Suspected "twinkling" stars. PD)) Mostly stationary blinking lights(one set in a formation) seen in rural Alabama sky with two seperate witnesses. I'm 20 years old and I live in a rural area in northwest corner of Covington County Alabama.

My home is about 30 minutes west of Ft Rucker which is a military installation that is the top training ground for helicopters in the US. That information is important because I'm fairly familiar with the racing lights in the sky that often come with living near air force bases that are used heavily for combat training. It's not odd to go out into the night air and see several flashing lights floating around with the stars.

That being said I'll begin my account of the last two nights. I stayed up all last night in effort to cram for a biology midterm(I'm a big fan of science, a believe in natural causality and a doubter of the supernatural, but I'm still interested in it I assure you, but as a man of logic it makes perfect sense that there would be other intelligent life in this universe.) I walked outside 4 or 5 times last night in order to take a break and get some air, I noticed in what I think is the eastern sky near Orion, a light that was flashing red/blue at an alarming speed, it didn't seem to move.

I found it curious but I turned my eyes back to the world of Biology and didn't think twice about it. Tonite I am again up studying calculus and I just made the first of what I'm sure will be multiple trips out into the night, and what I saw moved me to the point that I decided to email you. I looked back to Orion and saw that the light was still there, but to my shock not far above it was another and a ways to the left there was another, much brighter.

I then scanned the sky and counted another 9 or 10 scattered in all directions. These lights are in no way familiar to our area. They also were not moving, but all flashing in the same manor.

I called my friend ((name deleted)), who also lives in a secluded area about 10 miles south , and asked him to take a look into the stars. He saw them as well and it startled him just as it had me. He went a step farther and got out a pair of binoculars and found three rows of tiny blinking lights near the big dipper, I followed his lead and found the same thing.

I've seen some strange things in the sky, but I'm going to say that this one takes the cake.

Large disk shape moving across the sky, then dissappers It was at about 6:00pm and it was still sunny and few clouds.I was observing a few jets,noticing the exhaust stream and looked to the left and it looked sort of like a huge 747 shape on the front but narrower in the back it was a battleship gray color.I had to look twice and it was only there for a few seconds maybe 4 or 5.

I was fixing to ask someone with me what they thought it was and it just vanished.The jets i saw were way off but this was closer and bigger.The direction of the craft was east.

fast moving Chevron/ V formation of lights I was on the patio of my apartment looking at the sky as I often do at this time of night. ( I am an amateur astronomer and often observe satellite passes predicted by the Heavens-above site, and this time of night is the most common for observations.) I live fairly close to the Mobile Airport and am well experienced in seeing aircraft on approach.

What I saw, however, was nothing I have seen before. If it had been a single light I would have believed it to be a satellite, but there were aproximately 6-7 lights in a perfect V formation with a single light extended out in front. It moved extremely fast, hence the comparison to a satellite, and the lights were not much brighter then the stars of Cassiopeia which it traveled fairly close to.

The formation showed no solid structure, only the dim lights. I observed it for approx. 10 - 15 secs.

before it passed behind the roof of my building moving west. _ * | * | * * approx. 2" This is an idea of the shape of the formation * | * | - ((NUFORC Note: A formation, drawn in ASCII characters in the Online Report Form, does not survive the transfer to the database, and then the website.

I witnessed a color-shiftin object in the sky of Alabama when I was star-gazing. I was laying in my front yard, stargazing, when I saw a light in Orion's belt. It was a sort of pinkish-purple color with a greenish az around it, and it shifted from that color to blue, and back again.

It moved eastward rapidly, leaving a scattering of white specks behind it, like more, smaller craft. Then in a flash of light, it vanished. I had the distinct impression that they had been trying to mentally contact me, because I seemed to have been hearing a sort of haunting music that was coming from no external source during the whole incident.

((NUFORC Note: The dramatically bright, "twinkling" star, Sirius, is just to the left of Orion's Belt. PD)).
