Alabama UFO Sightings in 2016

Full Report Text:

Two sets of tiny white objects flying in formation in bright blue sky I observed two apparently high flying objects on 12/30/16 from about 2:41 pm to 2:45 pm , moving west to east. The objects, which were white, widely spaced, tiny pricks of light in an otherwise perfectly blue, clear sky moved in unison, with no visible difference in speed between them. They were barely visible to the naked eye.

Polarized sun glasses helped make them much more visible due to their ability to darken the blue sky. They moved out of sight to the east and moved in a very straight line the entire time of the observation. Prevailing winds were light and westerly.

I photographed the objects with my full frame DSLR and was barely able to fit the objects in the same frame at 165mm focal length. I may have been content to believe they were balloons, but, approximately 8 or 10 minutes later, the same, or very similar objects were observed moving from north to south in very close formation, they were right next to each other. They were observed for approximately a minute.

Their track appeared to be exactly perpendicular to that of the original two objects (I had a house dormer to compare them against), and they moved in unison as the others did. The wind had not changed direction.

Two triangular shaped crafts that blinked out. Last night I took my dog outside around 10 pm. I live on the edge of the city near a heavily wooded area, so it’s usually pretty dark as we don’t have street lights.

A few moments after stepping outside, I noticed there was a light blinking through the tree line at the very top towards the south. I thought it might have been an airplane or helicopter passing by. I disregarded it, really, until a few minutes later when the lights and object finally appeared over the trees.

The best way I can describe it that the 3 lights on it formed a triangle. The lights pulsed very softly and would change between a bright white and blue every few seconds. The lights hovered there for around an hour until they started blinking more rapidly and the craft started moving in a wide circle around the trees.

I would guess that it was making a ½ mile loop. I ended up taking my dog inside because he was so unsettled that he started to shake and at one point tried to slip out of his collar to get off the leash. I bring this up because he's a very well-mannered, calm dog and usually enjoys being outside.

A few minutes later, a second triangle shape approached from the north. The two triangles approached each other and hoovered very close to each other for just a few minutes before the first triangle completely blinked out. The second triangle then moved closer to the tree line (where the first one had sat after coming out from behind the trees).

It stayed there for around 45 minutes, pulsing softly. Around midnight, the lights started glowing brighter and then all three lights seemed to move and meet until they formed one bright light that blinked out. While I do believe in aliens and the like, I normally wouldn’t say anything, except that my neighbors also witnessed this and brought it up this morning as I was leaving for work.

They said that their child had woken them up very disturbed by the lights and had cried until both sets had disappeared. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

Glowing green light, darted across the sky, silent. I went outside to walk my dogs and I looked up just as a glowing green light darted across the sky over the highway parallel to my home silently, and in a matter of seconds.

It looked like a plane moving slowly in the sky, until the light began the get smaller and smaller then it was completely gone! Outside talking to a friend, looking up at the sky watching for helicopter I had heard. Then I saw what at first I thought was an airplane/airline jet, but was constantly questioning the altitude, looked high. It was moving about jet speed, but only had a bright light.

Sorta resembled a small star, as I was watching it makes its way across the sky in a straight line, it suddenly started getting smaller. That is when I noticed it was getting smaller because it was leaving, literally. Reminded me of a light disappearing at the end of the tunnel and being gone.

I was telling him how I was in complete disbelief about it, but it did happen.

2 extremely bright lights moving slowly and disappearing in night sky. I was on my front porch after the sun went down looking up at the stars and I see 2 bright lights near this one star towards the south. They were nearly as bright as Alpha Centauri.

They stayed still for about 30 seconds then they both started moving slowly at the same speed toward the star then the first one disappeared. The second went a little past the star and disappeared as well. Nothing else strange happened afterwards but my mouth was wide open in awe.

Light anomaly that didnt blink spotted sitting still than moving slow I was on my way home around midnight; and as i entered my neighborhood i saw a bright light hovering over the houses, but it was way off in the horizon. It sat, didnt blink, and as i tried to find a proper place to pull over and record it began to slowly move foward and eventually going behind the treeline amd other houses.

Me and my friend saw to very bright space crafts pass by my house while we watching the stars. We were staring at the stars and we noticed what we thought was a very bright star (it was also twinkling) and about 30 minutes later it started to move towards the tree line. Then it was behind the tress completely and it would move in a random pattern until it came into the open sky and got brighter (it was changing colors from green, white, and red) then it got almost blinding bright and seemed to get closer.

As it got closer it looked to be two space crafts, one big one shaped like a winged cigar shape and a second one trailing behind it that looked smaller and was shaped like a cylinder. It sounded like an airplane that was shaky. When it passed by, nothing really happened after.

But before the space crafts came by, me and my friend were talking about a previous account of seeing a space craft in this area. All in all, this was a very long experience and very stressful.

Full Report Text:

Light in sky. Bright white light crossing sky 045 to 060 course from SSW to ENE. Silent.

Looked just like ISS. I thought it was the ISS, but my programmed alert didn't chime, realized this after object passed almost overhead. I went online and verified ISS was not visible at time of sighting.

Estimated magnitude -2.5 to -3. Much brighter than usual satellites other than Iridium flares or ISS.

It was probably reflected light as it faded rapidly in NNE direction like it passed into earths shadow. No noticeable direction changes and light was very constant in intensity until rapidly fading as previously stated. Probably a rather large orbital object.

White light mostly, blue and red lights strobing around craft. Craft was itself cloaked. Wiggle/fast sudden stop circle upside down motions.

Went away some distance and tried to disguise as a star.

Full Report Text:

They moved west to east and covered the entire skyline in 4 seconds. They appeared to be at a high altitude and were only not emitting light but seemed to be reflective.

Saw a triangular shaped craft in the madison, alabama area Saw multiple lights moving quickly at low level and thought it was a helicopter. Near the intersection of Slaughter road and Eastview the lights suddenly separated and a large triangular shape appeared. The body was darker but 2 of the 3 points had lights.

It reminded me of images I have seen of stealth planes. I was in traffic and turned right on Eastview and could no longer see the image.

Two different craft seen moments apart. A large, crescent-shaped object moved through the sky at a constant speed and altitude. The object had no lights and appeared to take on the color of its environment- the night sky.

Its outline was visible, and it made no noise. It made me and my friend very uneasy. Moments after, a smaller, sphere-shaped craft moved erratically through the sky at a lower altitude with a greater speed.

It appeared to be brown in color with no lights. It quickly vanished into thin air.

Full Report Text:

I was on my break for work. I noticed that the sky looked like it drop to the earth because the stars were so close. I really looked at the stars and noticed that they were flickering green, red then yellow.

I noticed 2 more that shot straight up. I almost had a stroke. I tried to record them however I only got me and my daughter voice it was to dark.

I am very confused about this. I wanted to call the police but scared they would arrest me thinking I was crazy. The three were levitating and moving side to side.

While the bigger one was flashing white lights. I was so scared my daughter said, "Momma, I don't think we are supposed to be seeing this." My bff was on the phone with me I tried to record but if you could hear us you would know it's true.

I put chairs to the doors and stayed up all night. I wanted to knock on my neighbor's door. I know someone else seen this in Phenix City, Al.

Flickering light high in the sky with smooth drone-like movements. At 8:30, I looked out my window and saw a flickering light. It looked like a star that flickers (switching from a green to blue to red color very rapidly).

It looked strange, and we thought that it might be a plane, but it wasn't flashing like a plane. Then my wife realized that it was moving to the left. I looked and saw that it was moving slightly.

It went to the left then up and down in smooth motions like a drone. We then thought it might be a drone. This other white light, out of nowehre to the left of the object lights up in the sky.

These two objects are the same size, but this new object is just a steady white light - not flickering. It is going toward the flickering light quite fast compared to the speed of the other visible planes in the sky. It then fades to black.

We decide to get in our cars to drive closer to the flickering light to see if it's just a drone. We drive for 30 minutes toward this thing, and we never got closer. It was way up in th! e sky.

There was no way this thing was a drone considering the amount of time we spent driving toward it and yet we were still that far away. We gave up around 10:00 and went home. By this time we could not see it anymore, it was gone.

I'm not a UFO guy. I just saw something weird, and I have no clue what it was.

Full Report Text:

woke up, the power was out, steeped outside to second floor balcony. to see if the power was out just in my apartment, or power was out in the area. The power was out everywhere.

looking at the night sky, was a bright full moon. was hoping to get a good view of the stars, with the power out. But the moon was so bright, was not able to get a good view of the stars.

looking toward the western sky I see a very bright orange light, moving at high speed. Moving from west to east. It had a oval shape.

It had no contrail, made no sound. I was in the USAF. I know what I saw was not any kind of winged aircraft, or meteor.

i estimate it past within a mile or two from were I live. I went around the back of the complex to see if i see more of it. But it was already gone.

Spoke to a man that lives next to me said He saw it also.

I think I witnessed a UFO this morning in Hanceville, Al. I'm not from this area but I'm here working. I travel SR-31 south every morning on my to work, usually around (5am) so it's always dark.

This morning I glanced up to see the stars and I noticed something strange or unusual to me. At first I thought it might have been an airplane or helicopter but it was moving too slow and it lacked the flashing red strobe light. This object was a bright ball of light with a faint red/orange tint to it.

Like I said I was traveling south on 31 and the object was moving East to West slowly, just above the mountain there. I watched it for about 10 seconds or so and the sky is wide open there with great visibility, so there was literally nothing that it could disappear behind, and it just vanished right in front of my eyes. Like I said, I'm not sure what it was but I wanted to share my experience and see is anyone else has had similar experiences.

I'd like to stay anonymo! us due to my job and political status.
