All Reported UFO Sightings in Birmingham, Alabama

Full Report Text:

I observed a bright blue light hovering over downtown Birmingham AL. This light could be seen on the Southside of Birmingham as well. I observed the light for about 1 1/2 outside on my front porch (which is only a couple of blocks from downtown Birmingham).

I left to get something to eat and saw it on the Southside of Birmingham as well. I have video and photo evidence.

Two very large, very bright round lights, flash on/off I noticed two large round extremely bright white lights to my left just above the tree line. Very low, silent. I didn’t see a craft but it seemed the lights either had perfect formation or were attached to a single object.

It either was stationary or moving exceptionally slow because it seemed to stay the same size and brightness for several minutes. In time it slowly moved in a straight trajectory north. It took more minutes before it was no longer visible.

Unfortunately I didn’t have a phone on me. My family is full of pilots and lots of airplanes, this was nothing familiar.

I see these “moving & blinking stars” everynight. What I see looks like a moving star. When videoed and enlarged it seems to spin, get larger & shrink, blinks out, moves iff quickly.

One object turned colors. I have videos.

A colorfully lit disk floating up into the night sky I was sitting on my bed when I saw this outside my window. It was large, circular, and pretty close looking, floating at the height of the highest floor of my apartment. I went to the window and saw it kept moving upwards and I craned to see it until it was out of sight.

Its movement was slow and controlled, and I couldn’t see the “body” of the thing, it was just pitch black. All I could see was a ring of red, green, and blue lights, like a lit up hula-hoop. It was also dead silent from what I could hear inside.

Bright light moving sporadically up and down and across the sky Just south of Birmingham Airport. A bright light was noticed by an airline pilot and reported. The light was moving around up and down really fast.

The light was very bright and more maneuverable than any drone or aircraft I’ve ever seen. The light just suddenly disappeared and the pilots confirmed that there was definitely something flying around out there within the Birmingham Airport airspace.

High flying slow moving object that seemed to be floating then was destroyed and disappeared In southwest sky I noticed what appeared to be a bright star in the pre-dusk sky. I spotted it while I was looking at the moon. With the moon as a reference point, and the nearby treetops, I noticed that the object was actually slowly moving at high altitude generally in a Westerly direction but not in a perfectly straight path.

Movement was smooth and slow. I assumed it was some type of weather balloon. The sun was glinting off of it but at that great of a distance I couldn’t tell a shape.

There was no contrail. I kept checking on it every few minutes and I filmed it for a few uneventful minutes on my phone. Finally I grabbed my binoculars to try to get a better look.

When I finally got focus on the object it it expelled a small smoke plume that looked like what I can best describe as what an eject seat looks like when it’s fired. Like a small rocket shot upward from it for what appeared to be a short distance. The object immediately dimmed and disappeared and I believe I saw a small dark speck fall rapidly back to earth in my binoculars but I can’t say for certain because it was so far away.

I continued to watch but there was nothing. No chute, no more smoke, nothing. My best guess is a weather balloon with some kind of self-distruct mechanism where it blows its balloon top? Either that or a high flying balloon that somehow launched a small rocket into the upper atmosphere.

As i was outside in my driveway,there was about 20 "Crafts" in the sky moving at a fast rate in a single filed line,one after As i was outside in my driveway,there was about 20 "Crafts" in the sky moving at a fast rate in a single filed line,one after the other. I called my wife outside and pointed towards the sky and she was in Awe and asked. "What are those"? Babe,i have no idea.

but what we witness was far beyond the clouds. No Sound!! But beautiful!! When i say that they were in a single file lines. that's EXACTLY what i mean.

No Airplane could accomplish that feat of being so close. people, i know what we saw! I stayed outside for an hr or so hoping they would come back.Never did.

It was Awesome. I do know that we are not the ONLY BEINGS in this galaxy. And tonight proved just that.

May the creator's continue to Keep us. AMEN.

I was driving down the red mountain expressway, and saw a large silver disc/circular shaped craft in the sky. It moved unnaturally from one point to another. Speeds that aren't possible.

I tracked it for around 45 seconds trying alert others on the road to the object. It had what looked like larger thrusters cylindrical shaped on two sides. Golden aura around the thrusters.

I looked away to exit the highway, and when I looked back I saw it for a split second, and then it vanished.

In the summer of August 2019 in Trussville/Birmingham, AL. my family and I witnessed what appeared to be a Balloon hovering stationary in the sky, then it started to slowly accelerate over some hills before reappearing and accelerating vertically. The object appeared black and circular with no apparent lights or sound.

I have some photos as proof.

My family and I was driving down I-65 when I noticed 4 or more cigar state objects. I didn’t say anything because I knew that it was probably natural. But the more I look at it, it seems like a long cigar shape objects that is camouflage.

I’m not sure if anyone else saw it.

14 objects with bright red/orange lights The following event occurred between 9:15PM and 9:45PM on 2/18/19 at Birmingham, AL: To set the stage for what my wife and I observed, I need to mention that our bedroom has a large bay area with seven windows which have plantation type shutters, covering the lower half of the windows, leaving the upper portions open to the sky. We can lie in bed and look out at the stars or passing aircraft in the sky. On this particular night, the sky was clear.

During the above time frame, I was watching TV when my wife remarked, “What in the world is that? I looked out of one of the windows to observe something moving in the sky from a northwestern direction toward the southeast. What we were looking at was something with a very bright red light on top of an orange light. We at first thought it was a helicopter but I have never seen a helicopter with that type lighting.

My wife then said, “Look, there is another one.” I remarked that there must be a bad wreck, and they are sending two helicopters. (It is noted that we live near a hospital, and it is not unusual for us to see and hear helicopters at night).

We the saw a third object ; and then a fourth; fifth and sixth. All of these objects looked alike with the same red and orange lights. All six of these objects were visible at one time.

My wife jumped out of bed and went to the other end of our house to see where these objects were going. They kept coming about fifteen seconds apart. We observed a total of fourteen of these object, all with the same lights.

All of these objects followed the same path and seemed to be traveling at about the speed of a helicopter. Some of them seemed to be at an altitude of about 2,000 feet and some at about 1000 feet although this is only a guess. As they passed not far from our house, they seemed to climb to the southeast and then disappear.

The fact that we never heard any sound from these objects caused us to think they might be drones but why would there be fourteen of them all going the same route? We were never able to see any frame as all we could focus on were the bright red and orange lights. There is nothing of interest known to us that would be on the course that these objects took. ((NUFORC Note: We spoke via telephone with the husband, and we found him to be exceptionally eloquent and serious-minded.

We suspect that both he and his wife are unusually reliable witnesses. PD)).

Abnormally bright off-white light traveling in sky, then, that light turned off as two equally bright off-white lights attached to the right and left of the craft that were blinking. (about the speed of a vehicles hazard lights blinking.) Looked as though the two lights were each in the middle of their own rectangle (picture flashing lights in the middle of solar panels on an typical satellite.

this was the same sort of shape) and a pin-prick very dim greenish-blue light was also visible between the two flashing lights. This was definitely not an average plane, but my impression is that it was still human-made.

Object that is the size of a small star changed size, light intensity, and rapidly dropped to the ground after 40 seconds of observatio My Sighting: At approximately 3:47, I observed a light in the sky, too small to be a plane even at its biggest shape. The object was moving in an alarmingly strange fashion, which is what initially caused me to observe it. I will state my location, which is Birmingham, Alabama, traveling northward at the time on Highway 280, but waiting in the turn lane to turn on I-459 South.

I noticed the light intensity on this object was changing in an unpredictable way, much like the movements. While the movements and shapes of this small star shaped light were sporadic, it did move in a general direction of east to west. About 40 seconds after observing said object, I noticed it got harder to follow.

When it became visible again, it dropped to the ground at an extremely fast speed. I should also mention that it was daytime and my visibility was clear. I spoke to the hotline manager at 3:55 to report my sighting.

Unusual silent penney sized at arm's length object crossed sky rapidly unusual brownish pale orange band in shape. Object moving East to West silently approx 75 degrees above horizon. Apparent size that of a penney held at arms length.

Object was moving above or through broken clouds which may have contributed to a bit of transluscence. Color of object was indistinct but seemed to have a brown overtone with some other hints of yellow pale orange that seemed to partially frame a rectangular subshape-curved on the front, squaarish in the rear. Perhaps oval overall, hard to say.

Object went across about a third of the sky in 2 seconds before disappearing behind trees. I am a regular observer of the night sky, having a telescope for many years. Never saw an object like this, ever.

Perhaps could have been much higher if perhaps it was a bollide or some object in the upper atmosphere- it would have to have been moving extremely fast. Did not really look like any shooting star I've ever seen, and I have seen many. ((NUFORC Note: We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he sounded to us to be quite sober-minded.

We suspect that he is an exceptionally capable, and reliable, witness. PD)).

Twinkling amber lights in formation My fiancé and I were traveling home in my vehicle after grocery shopping. He suddenly said, "Look up!" as he leaned forward over the steering wheel. When I leaned forward and looked up I saw what I estimated to be a dozen or so twinkling/blinking/phasing objects flying in a close V-formation.

He pulled over immediately, and I turned on my phone's camera to record video. (Due to technical error on my part, I missed recording most of the sighting.) Initially, they were overhead.

I had difficulty understanding what I was seeing, as the twinkling was disorienting, especially that if one blinked out completely, it might reappear elsewhere suddenly. They did not maintain formation for very long, due to the leap-frog-like blinking in and out. (The objects both twinkled and blinked out completely.

) The color of the lights/ objects was a light amber color. There was no sound beyond traffic (we were near an interstate on-ramp). The shape was basically spherical.

The twinkling sometimes gave the hint of an egg-shape, but I believe that to be an optical illusion. I witnessed the objects seeming to disappear and reappear from the V-formation, some of them failing to reappear. They were moving from the western suburbs of Birmingham toward the city of Birmingham.

Eventually, the lights were either too far away to see or they had just disappeared. I was able to get a fairly poor quality video (33 seconds of one or two of them in the distance) that demonstrates the "twinkling." Sometimes the lights moved toward their destination before blinking out.

That's how I was able to comprehend they were reappearing elsewhere after they blinked out. My fiancé said he did not see as many ibjects as I did. He saw about half as many, but he was driving in traffic, and I was completely focused on the sighting from the moment he pointed out lights in the sky.

The objects were flying far too close together to be any manned craft of which I am aware. Initially, I had assumed it was military exercise, then I thought it was helicopters. Logically, it could not have been helicopters.

Not only was the light-color wrong for any aircraft I've seen, but - beyond Blue Angels, I've never seen aircraft fly so closely in formation. The number of lights dwindled to two, then one, and I lost sight. I didn't get the impression that they were moving especially fast, but I don't know how low they were flying.

I had an overwhelming sense of disorientation which certainly contributed to guessing at their altitude. They flew over radio towers, but before I saw that, I would have said they were flying very low overhead. To be clear, it was dark and I saw no physical objects beyond the lights.

I have spoken about them assuming that the twinkling was somehow a part of a physical object. I can't conceive of how the twinkling wouldn't be attatched to a physical object of some sort.

Round object viewed from airliner I snapped this picture from my seat on a flight from San Francisco to Atlanta. The picture was somewhere northwest of Birmingham, Alabama. I noticed it outside my window, and figured it was another airliner.

After observing it a few seconds, I noticed it didn't look like another jet. I couldn't see any wings or tail fin. It was in view for maybe 20 seconds or so before it changed directions and went out of my view.

I am not sure of the time. The only reason I have a rough idea of a location is because I noticed the guy beside me had his flight tracker up on his seat monitor about 3 minutes after my sighting. I was heading East, the object appeared to be heading southeast at a 45 angle to us but never seemed to get closer or farther from us unti it changed its direction to south.

The object looked whitish in color, shaped almost like a blimp or a football. My best guess would be 10-20 miles away from our aircraft.

I saw a black oval shaped large ufo go straight up through trees into the clouds. Seemed 1 mile away from my eye sight. ((NUFORC Note: Source of the report elects to remain anonymous; provides no contact information.

PD)).

I heard a low humming sound. About 3 am, I was up watching tv, when I felt a low humming in the air. It had a wide range of volume so I knew it couldn't be in the house because of the brick structure I was in.

I walked outside as the humming got stronger, looked up and saw nothing but complete darkness which was normal but the humming was right above me and moving. Then about thirty seconds later, I noticed the black sky I thought I was seeing was moving cause now I can see the back of it moving away making view of the real night sky with stars and night light. The black object slowly moved on over my back yard which is three acres but the object was at least one mile long and one mile wide cause of the duration of time it took to become noticed by sound and the time it took to disappear.

It was about a quarter mile above my trees. The sound was a air humming sound with no detonation.

Heard low rumbling sound, saw a big ?? In the sky before it disappeared. I was asleep in bed with my girlfriend, having a random simple normal dream about a supermarket, when the dream abruptly switched to an empty white room where men in blue hoods were rushing toward me, I awoke with a gasp for air and a balled fist. I then noticed a low rumble sound coming from outside.

I opened the window to see a large black and purple amoeba-like object in the sky. It looked as if it were made of gel or some type of thick liquid. It stayed for about five minutes before completely fading away and the sound shortly followed.

It didn't fly away, it's like it simply became invisible. Tried to take a picture but my battery died as soon as I opened my phone. I feel like I should also note that our cat was running around the room which is not normal for him at all.

I am a 25 year old male, and I've never seen anything like this before. It has been over two and a half years since my last experiment with psychedelic drugs.
