All Reported UFO Sightings in New Smyrna Beach, Florida

Full Report Text:

During the space shuttle launch “Artemis” I witnessed a strange unidentified object and nonhuman being. The space shuttle “Artemis1” was going to launch on November 16th at 1:42am. My daughter and I stayed up late to watch it.

When it was about to go off we walked outside and we have a Estuary next to our house. The shuttle was lighting up the sky behind the trees so I took a couple pictures the went onto the middle of the street to video it. It was 1:42am and everybody was asleep since it was a week day so it was just us.

All of a sudden a long straight object that made no noise flew over our heads and went into the estuary at almost tree top level. During the video you can hear me and my daughter say “What the hell is that?”. We then heard some noise in the estuary and I took a couple pictures of the tree line before going back inside.

My daughter and I started looking at the pictures and couldn’t believe what we were seeing. The video did not detect the flying object but you can hear me and my daughter saying “What the hell is that?!”But the pictures did show some really interesting things. The 1st and 2nd photos show 2 blue long objects and they were not straight lines but if you scroll in you will see a blue line up in sky near space shuttle and 1 line by the trees.

Both pictures have the 2 blue lines but they are different shape than each other. The 3rd photo was a picture I took of the trees from standing in middle of street. You can see two blue identical shapes that kind of resemble tail lights right where we saw the object flew in the trees.

Then the 4th photo shows a strange shape and strange lines and it looks like some kind of structure like maybe a space craft. Then the 5th photo shows a non human like form. The right arm is lifting up and the left arm is down and the face is looking to the side.

I then realized that the shape was right in front of the camera. It was so close. You can see in the photo the tree area in the background.

We are close to the beach and get a good view of the space shuttles. If you look in the Estuary you can see plants pushed down.

A glowing object moving around off the coast of New Smyrna beach My daughter Catherine Hope Steele sent this to me around midnight. She was looking out from the beach towards the ocean on New Smyrna Beach last night and saw this. There are a few lights blinking to the right of the film.

In my opinion they are aircraft heading to an airport or Cape Canaveral. But, to the left is a bright object that seems to glow and move strangely. My thought is that it could be a drone filming the storm.

There’s supposed to be a SpaceX launch tonight or tomorrow so it could be someone testing out the drone camera. It just doesn’t seem to act like a drone though, and it glows. That concerns me.

Would you be able to review the video and let me know what you think please? It would give us peace of mind if it’s just a drone.

Object darting in the sky. A round object emitting various colors and making darting movements in the sky. At one time the object seemed to get bigger then it shrunk down.

It was In the west northwest sky, moving northwest at a slow pace. It was hard to judge its distance.

We saw a floating V-shaped object flying along the Atlantic coast at night. My sister and two children were outside on the patio of our vacation home that overlooks the ocean taking down the flag from the flagpole when my sister noticed a flying object in the sky. The flying object looks like a constellation of stars in a v shape.

It was flying at a fast speed, lower in the sky. The lights were not brighter or duller than the stars in the sky. They matched the stars' color and brightness.

My children did not take notice, as they are only 2 and 5 years old. I said, 'What is that?" and my sister responded that she thought it was a satellite she had heard were roving the world now. We looked up again and the object continued moving down the coastline.

I told her that I thought it looked like a UFO. We returned inside and told my husband and our parents what we witnessed. My sister searched online for images of the satellites and realized what we saw was indeed not a satellite.

I googled other UFO sighting images and found photos posted of the Lubbock Lights. We both agreed the object we saw tonight looked exactly like the Lubbock Lights images.

Numerous lights flying across the sky in a straight line and equidistant Initially saw what looked like a straight line constellation over the horizon, but quickly realized they were moving. They moved steady and equidistant, north to south, except for the last which was close behind to the second-to-last and off to the right. They did not move very fast, and seemed to be very high up or smaller objects.

All were in my view and another witness' view for 15 to 30 seconds before seemingly disappearing or going out of view. We live in an area with a fair amount of light pollution, so I couldn't see them trail off, it moreso seemed like they weren't there anymore. All gave off the same amount of light and I could not see an outline.

There were no other lights on it, the object(s) was just one source of white light.

Bright disc-shaped object that jukes around and then vanishes in blue skies. My Fiancé and I were traveling west on a straight stretch of Pioneer Trail about 3-4 miles from Tomoka Farms Road. We first spotted it about the 1 o’clock position in the sky, it was extremely bright and looked like we were looking at the side of a disc with the sun reflecting off of it, however it was glowing on the bottom of the craft as well.

I asked my fiancé if it could be a plane, but we both decided it definitely was not due to it’s erratic quick movement from north to south in an instant to about 10 o’clock in the sky. It never got any smaller like it was traveling away from us. It then made an track to about 3 o’clock in a second or two, and then vanished.

We were both a little shocked because we only counted one small cloud in a blue sky. And we could find where it went. Later on we saw airliners flying over and instantly knew we had seen something anomalous.

saw several orange lights moving At 20:00 hrs on December 11, 2017 walking to my condo in Pine Valley, New Smyrna Beach, with my wife, we saw several orange coloured objects in the sky moving together in a south easterly direction. I would say there would have been about a dozen of these objects. One of them seemed to us to descend rapidly to earth.

I live just outside of town. I was walking my dog when he stopped. I turned to see why, and saw he was staring into the sky.

I looked up and there were clusters of lights forming a large circle in the sky. I want to say there were three lights to each cluster, but not sure, as it also seems there could have been more. The object was very low to the ground, I thought, and almost directly above my dog and me.

It was very cloudy around the lights and the area in the middle of the lights, but the lights were clearly defined. I don't remember the night being exceptionally cloudy, though, it could have been. There was no detectable sound.

It seems like the lights were turning, but it's kind of surreal, so not sure now. The lights were just white, no color. It just sat in the one place.

I texted my kids about what I saw and went back into the house, and it was still there when I went in.

Cloud ships over Bethune Beach While walking on Bethune Beach, I noticed a smallish cloud. I wondered if it was a cloud-ship because of its odd shape and that it wasn’t moving. As I sat at the picnic tables I noticed that 2 larger clouds moved from the west to east and layered themselves above the smaller cloud.

Each progressively larger. Once in that position they absolutely did not move for over 2 hours. They were situated directly above the shoreline.

Also, a helicopter came from the north and once it got just south of these “clouds” it hovered in place for at least 2 minutes. It is not unusual for helicopters to travel from the Coast Guard Station (at the inlet) to Patrick Air Force Base, however this was a very different helicopter, it was flying much slower than they usually do and in all my years I have never seen one stop and hover. People took note of the helicopter, but I honestly don’t believe anyone else took note of the “clouds.

” They were still in place when I left at 14:00 (2 p.m.).

There were 2 other anomalies in the sky at the same time, but I will keep this limited to the UFOs.

Red flame- like substance with white tightly packed filaments protruding moving along New Smyrna Beach shoreline after 11:00. My cousin and I (70 and 74 yrs old) were watching TV in our rental by New Smyrna Beach, Fl. Immediately off shore and a little higher than our seven floor building, I saw something I had never seen in my lifetime---A slowly and steadily moving object that resembled a rectangular shape that appeared to have the likeness of orangish fire.

At one end of the shimmering so called fire--for want of a better word--there protruded a luminous dull white--as if they were filaments that were closely packed together. All of what was visible was as big as the front quarter of a fuselage of a small plane. However, as I watched it, I had the feeling that there was more to its size than the shimmering/fiery orange I could see in the darkness.

After we saw it, the object seemed to speed up and rise slowly as it moved south along the beach. It then disappeared. I must repeat, I have never seen anything like it.

It looked like flame, yet I somehow knew it wasn't. The flame didn't spread, and had it been a plane on fire, it would have spread! It also moved silently, and we were ! close enough to hear a motor had there been one. I also sensed that the object wasn't solid.

Fireball and explosion in the sky over N. Central Florida The night of July 22nd I was walking Southward on my street toward a CVS and happened to be looking up into the sky as I walked. Around 3 minutes into the walk, I noticed a bright orange object traveling in a Westerly direction very quickly before seeming to explode.

The incident lasted long enough for me to catch it out of the top corner of my eye, look up to see it traveling West for under 5 seconds, then burst like an explosion. It was very different than witnessing a typical "shooting star" as the light was a red orange, quite fiery looking, and rather than blinking out of existence it first exploded quite clearly. I can say for sure this was not a fireworks display, as it all happened in utter silence and with no surrounding exploding debris.

It also looked much too far away, too high up, to be any fireworks display and did not resemble any fireworks I have encountered. This could quite probably have been a meteorite exploding upon entry into our atmosphere, but an incident witnessed in the same area the following night by several people including my brother and mother have caused me to look upon it with curiosity. ((NUFORC Note: Probably not a meteor.

PD)).

Orange orb over Atlantic Ocean in New Symnra Beach during unorganized firework show. At 20:35 on July 4th 2010 while sitting by the hot tub at the Tradewinds Condos in New Symrna Beach myself and 4 friends observed an orange orb in the sky. It was positioned due east of the condo and was just coming into our field of vision to the right of the condo building on our left.

I rushed to the video camera and by the time I was able to get it on and open it disappeared. That video is also available. At 22:15 July 4th 2010 while standing on the 8th floor balcony of the Tradewinds Condos in New Symrna Beach the orange orb again appeared.

Myself and "L" were observing fireworks when it was noticed moving at a high speed from 9 o'clock to 12 o'clock. When the object came to 12 o'clock from us, due east, it froze and remained there. At this point I ran back into the condo to tell our other friends and to grab the video camera.

I began filming as soon as I returned to the balcony and attached is that film unmodified. The orb was due east over the water and far higher than the fireworks that were being launched from the beach. If I picture my body sideways looking out to the east as the hands of a clock positioned at 6 o'clock, my head as 12 and my feet were 6; raising my left arm to point to the object placed it to be at the 2 of a clock.

The object was oval in shape with a circular center of brightness in the distal 1/3rd of the oval. The color that it was emitting was orange in the proximal 2/3rd and bright yellow orange in the distal 1/3rd. The distal 1/3rd of the object was pulsating with light and at times appeared brighter yellow to white, and pulsed back and forth to yellow orange.

In order to get a close reference my friend "S" stood in front of me while filming approximately 1 and a half feet from the end of the camcorder. At this point the object is viewed directly over her head and behind her toward the east over the ocean. We observed this oval orb for about 1 minute with our first sighting and for approximately 3 minutes during our second sighting.

There was only one orb spotted during each sighting. I myself am a University of Miami alumni with studies in Science and Physics. I currently work in the Medical profession as a consultant for orthopaedic devices.

Sporadic light over beachside New Smyrna Last Friday night my friend, who was visiting, and I were sitting outside on my patio smoking a cigarette and talking. I estimate the time of the event to be around 22:30, though I may have been mistaken since we had just been hanging out all night and not paying attention to time. My friend and I were outside smoking, and she looked up in the sky and pointed out to me what we both thought was a satellite.

It was moving south-southeast We watched it briefly (about five seconds), only to see it stop mid-flight, jerk to the northeast (diagonally up and left from its position), and begin flight again. The object continued this pattern of stopping and re-starting for the next thirty to forty seconds. Its timing was very sporadic as was the degree to which it adjusted its flight path.

When we started losing sight of it, I climbed up on top of my chair, but could not see it anymore due to the light pollution on the horizon. I walked inside and told my boyfriend, who was sitting on the sofa watching tv, exactly what we saw. My friend confirmed everything.

My boyfriend told us that he had seen objects like that in the sky over the beach before. Neither my friend nor myself could discern a specific shape or color to the object as it was very high in the atmosphere. The area in which the sighting occurred is close to the Canaveral National Seashore, so there is a possibility that it was some sort of government intelligence.

My friend and I are both twenty years old. She and I were room mates at the University of Alabama for one semester, after which I moved to the eastern Florida coast and she moved to a suburb outside of New York City. We're both hard-working students.

My friend is pursuing a degree in nursing, while I'm busy studying chemistry so that I can do research someday. I'm also a waitress in a local wine bar. My friend had been working at a Red Lobster part-time.

My boyfriend has a bachelors degree in economics from the University of Florida, but due to the economy he works at a local restaurant on the beach. Until February of this year, he worked overnight (from the time the restaurant closed until about 5:00) doing security and some maintenance. ((NUFORC Note: Error in date.

We have amended the date above to reflect a date of June 19, 2009, and we will check with the source of the report. PD)).

green orb disappears behind cloud A friend and I were enjoying an evening in the hot tub. As we were sitting there talking about the days events, we both noticed a large green (glowing green) orb float down from the sky. It went behind a cloud, and, just like that, it was gone.

((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)).

Spherical object shot around the sky with agaility and ease over the New Smyrna Beach area. I was just getting off my computer from chatting with my boyfriend and decided to step out on my balcony for a cigarette. I was looking along the horizon to the west and up into the sky at the stars and noticed an object that I had never seen there before.

It was just over the tree line. I knew at once that it was either a plane or something else since it was too bright to be a star or a planet. It was spherical, bright, and appeared to have a halo or an aura around it.

I kept watching it to see if it would turn towards the airport to land, but it didn't. For a good three minutes it remained stationary in the sky. Then all of a sudden it dropped in altitude and picked back up to the exact place where it was when I first saw it.

It then zipped toward the north and disappeared. In the place where it disappeared, there seemed to have been a hole ripped in the clouds. I knew at this time that it must have been something not of this world, so I went inside to get my blanket and wrap up on the balcony.

About five minutes passed with me sitting on the balcony watching the sky for another or the same object. Suddenly one appeared on the same place the fist one had. It had the same characteristics as the first.

This craft zipped to the north and the south with ease and agility. Then it returned to the same place where it first appeared, and the light that it was emitting slowly faded. I have seen a few UFOs before, but never anything of this magnitude.

My father had once described the same phenomenon to me, except the craft was much closer to him. There was the same agility and the same aura to the object. He also reported that the craft shot up into the air and that there was a hole in the clouds from where it passed through.

Bluish ball of light observed at New Smyrna Beach Florida. Possible bolide. At approximately 23:45 my friend and I were on the boardwalk at New Smyrna Beach watching lightening over the ocean.

A storm had just passed through an hour before and was off shore. We noticed a large turqouise-colored ball of light, surrounded by a haze, streaking silently from north to south over the ocean, in the direction of the Kennedy Space Center about 14 miles to the south. The object was the size of a quarter held at arm's length and had a long, hazy, bluish tail.

What was curious was the object's bluish color, unlike any colors of comets or meteors I have seen, and that it seemed to move slower than a comet. Our observation time was about 3 or 4 seconds before the object vanished. I would surmise that we witnessed a bolide and that atmospheric conditions were responsible for the odd color.
