Alabama UFO Sightings in 2012

Full Report Text:

Sphere shaped object flashing multiple colors and changing shape At the first sight of the object, it seemed to look just like all of the other stars in the night sky. We noticed that it glared so we assumed it was an airplane. But, we came to the conclusion it couldn't be an airplane because there was no noise and the speed was just too slow for anything we could think of to stay in the air that high up.

So i grabbed the camcorder (a Full HD Insignia 1920x1080p hand-held)and tried to get a good shot of it. But when i did, we really were clueless as to what this thing was. The object was round in shape.

Viewable only by camera. It had multiple colors ( green, blue, yellow etc.) emitted from within its shape, that could be seen only during active zoom.

It started to change shape, from top to bottom. Then, when it came to about half a sphere, a purplish light emitted from the center to about where the top of the original sphere would have been. As this was taking place, the sphere started to reform.

Once this was complete, it started to continue flashing colors. I will email the video from ((e-address deleted)). I may have to convert it from avi format to wmv.

If that is okay.but ill wait for a confirmation email before i do so, to protect the authenticity of the video. ((NUFORC Note: Possible sighting of Sirius.

PD)).

Two sets of orange lights seen over Foley, Alabama Four adults returning from dinner observe two sets of orange lights low in the sky from their car. The lights were three blocks from their homes. One set was a semi circle.

The second set was in a triangle shape. They turned onto a side street to observe. The lights began to blink out one at a time till they were all gone.

No sound come from the lights. Being a UFO investigator for many years I conclude these lights may have been attached to objects but it was too dark to see the objects. I come to this conclusion because the lights were evenly space on both the triangle and semi circle and blinked out one at a time in succession.

brief star like light to the left of sun driving and saw star like object to the left of sun, exact time was not noted. Observed to the immediate left of the sun and appeared brighter but much smaller. (comparable to the planets that were so bright in the early morning skies over the past several months.

) This was a day sighting however, and only saw for several seconds then it was gone. Looked all around for it but did not see it again. Did notice a thin clooud-like trail a good distance to the left that curved up and through an actual small cloud, and right above that cloud it ended.

not sure if it was part of the cloud but it did not appear to be a typical cloud attribute, closest example is like a nike swoosh? It did seem practical by its placement that it could have been created by what we saw. other wittness was wife.

Light in daytime sky that faded away. I was driving from work on Highway 77 traveling east when I noticed a light in the sky. I was trying to get my son’s attention and tell him where to look.

Within about 20-30 seconds it seem to fade away. I’m baffled. I’ve never put much stock in people talking about “lights in the sky.

” I see things at night that seem different, but very explainable it. I’ve never noticed anything during the day.

Unexplained single bright light passes overhead in Alabama suburban neighborhood. This sounds a little implausible but obviously I am taking the time to report this, and may have been the only witness (also I have never seen a UFO before, although I once saw a satellite move across the sky late at night). I was driving alone past a crowded mall last night about 7:15pm CST (right in front of the Brookwood Village Mall, just south of Birmingham in Homewood, Alabama)-hardly the place where one would expect to see a UFO.

Being just before Christmas, there was a lot of light from passing vehicles and of course from the mall itself. All of a sudden, I became aware of a single bright light passing rapidly overhead, directly over my car maybe 2-3,000 feet up or possibly higher than that, moving in the same direction as my car. As quickly as I saw it (I did NOT imagine a bright light moving overhead), it was gone, so it was moving quite fast.

In all, the whole incident couldn't have lasted more than 3 seconds. In my best judgment, no way that was a plane, a satellite, or even a reflection on my windshield, which was my first thought, since I plainly saw an isolated light up in the sky outside the car, and obviously very bright (like a ball of light) in order to show up over the ambient light from the mall and passing vehicles. I had the car windows rolled up, so I wasn't able to hear anything to be honest.

Since I live nearby, I know planes don't customarily fly over the Brookwood Village, much less that low, so that is obviously not a flight path. There is no way the light could have been from a military jet, a private jet or even a regular plane, since I would have noticed lights on its wings, or a blinking tail light etc. and again it was moving far too fast to be a plane.

This was a SINGLE bright light (the color of a car headlamp) which was moving very rapidly. I have no idea what it could have been, but thought you'd like to know. I started to call 911, but decided against it, so I don't know if anyone else has reported this.

My wife and oldest son were out on our porch,approx. 9:55pm. Northwestern sky a light, odd shaped, like an egg.

moving in a erratic pace, fast slow and seemed to move south, then north then south again, then north and then disappeared. We have seen this light on several occasions before. Odd movement and no blinking lights would indicate that this is not a plane or helicopter.

Each time the light moves towards our house, then turns and disappears.

Luminated orb Walking outside to my car for work, saw an orb like object floating quickly across the sky moving south/ south east. At first I thought the object was a star due to its intense brightness until I realized it was in motion. It wasn't flying low, but it wasn't outside of our atmosphere either.

Could still see its lumination as it went behind a small patch of cloud cover. Ran inside to grab my boyfriend and he was amazed as well. It looked incredibly similar to footage from Eceti ranch of their UFO phenomenon.

This is the third out of fourth sighting I've had in the past month. There was no sound, and it resembled craft I have seen in the area, although the others were no laminated in this manner. Fourth sighting was this morning 12/06 at 545am, driving I noticed a metallic object moving quickly across the sky, slightly luminated (not very intense) In Hoover Alabama on hwy 150.

Object had no lights, no signal lighting or navigation lighting of any kind. I am very excited to see what's to come in the future with this many sightings thus far. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

Two bright round objects in Gordo, AL I was standing on my back deck, I was looking into the sky when I saw a bright white fire ball shoot across the sky and go down below the tree line. The object was round and was sparkly, it left a light trail behind it. It disappeared below the tree line.

It lasted about 15-20 seconds. Shortly after that maybe 2-3 mins later my husband and I saw a bright round object bigger and brighter than a star appeared from the south at a high elevation and desended to the north and slowly faded and disappeared.

Full Report Text:

Four glowing orbs present in the night sky, traveling not spontaneously, and making no noise. We saw a red glowing orb that changed sometimes from yellowish orange to red. It made a slow (slower than a plane) arc from right to left.

It then traveled toward us for a little bit, then directly away and the light dimmed out. A few seconds later, a second orb did the same thing, but traveling a little bit differently. It's light dimmed out, and then we saw a third orb.

A fourth orb going in an opposite direction (90 degrees from these three) came into view. It was more obscured by trees. The light glowed, and was not like an electric light.

It's movement was not spontaneous. The first orb came toward us, changing from it's original direction, and then moved in the exact opposite way, sped up, and then dimmed out. It made no noise.

While driving home last night (November 22,2012) on Highway 69, my girlfriend and I saw a fireball streak across the sky. We were crossing Blackwater Bridge in Boldo and both looked up to see a yellowish ball with a green tail, it flashed twice and disappeared .

Very distant, silent, faint and quick moving light eased across the southern sky. We saw a very distant, silent and non blinking faint light moving South across the sky. It was moving quickly.

It wasn't a shooting star or a plane. Too high for a plane and too slow for a shooting star. Possible Satalite??? We also saw the same thing last year but their were two, back to back.

They wen't south then came back North and out of sight. Satalites????? ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

Round, flashing lights hovering in the same spot 2 nights in a row. Located under Orion's Belt. Seen 2 nights in a row.

Flashing red and white/blue light. After 30 minutes I could see the object move a short distance and hover. Moving up and down and in circles.

Both nights there was what looked to be a shooting star directly underneath the object. Both nights it showed up on the same spot and moved in the same direction. ((NUFORC Note: Possible sighting of Sirius.

metallic object rolling across morning sky Walking to my car this morning, I looked up into the sky and looked at a pair of stars for a moment. All of the sudden a spherical/oval - metallic object (almost looked like it had a line down the middle) was moving past the first star, almost as if it was "rolling". Object continued moving past second star and over my head.

All I could do was stand there with my jaw dropped. Checked satellite trackers and the only one that came through the area thirty five minutes prior - lasting for a duration of 5 minutes. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides little contact information.

immediate u- turn. no noise. I came out to let my dog use the bathroom and was walking with her to the back yard.

I looked up above the trees on the mountain behind the house and seen three rectangular lights in a triangle shadow moving slow with no noise at all. It was coming straight at me but then did an immediate u-turn and slowly went back over the trees. I knocked on the back door and had my wife come look at it and as soon as she seen it, it shot off very fast.

It did make a sound like loud wind.

Full Report Text:

Red, White, and Blue object, moving and gliding with sudun stops, below Orion's Belt. The object is/was beneath Orion's Belt more toward the horizon. It seems to shine between reds, whites, and blues, dare I say some shifts of light directly at my location.

I want to say it's a planet, but I've been watching this thing weave back and forth and descending. I won't claim it's anything unworldly and maybe being so close to the horizon the light had some drift causing this effect, but it was and is definitely new to me as an novice star gazer of over a decade.
