Indiana UFO Sightings in 2016

Full Report Text:

Multiple flying and lit-up diamond-shaped objects were seen going from one specific place to another waiting in sync for each one to go. Around 1:01AM on Friday, December 30th, 2016, I witnessed multiple flying objects in the night sky. I was up watching a show, when all of a sudden I heard a loud and peculiar noise, not one of an airplane but it was louder and more high pitched.

I looked out of my bedroom window and noticed a flying, lit-up diamond shaped object coming from across the sky, so I watched it. Curiously, I stayed until it was out of sight, then right as I was about to turn around, I saw another one coming from the same area where the first one had come from. So I waited for that one to pass, but before I knew it I was there for over 45 minutes just watching these objects go from one side of my window to the other.

Finally I had gotten tired of waiting for another one after about the 15th one so I headed to bed. There was a gap between the 15th,16th and 17th ones. Around 1:55AM, I went to lay down in bed whenever I heard the noise get louder.

Two of the objects flew close to each other a! nd stopped. About 15-20 seconds later they left one going one way and the other the other way. I thought it was finally over until I heard the noise coming back again, but shortly after that, a train came at 2:02AM, and after that train, there were no more flying objects that were seen.

I was driving northbound on SR 37 at approximately 12:17am, heading out of Fishers, and into Noblesville, when I saw it. The craft was southwest of my location. The craft appeared to be triangular.

It had three bright white lights that were aligned parallel and nearly touching at the the top of the craft. The craft also had two blue lights one at each two lower corners. The craft looked as if it was perpendicular and pointing up towards the sky.

The craft appeared to be totally motionless. What drew my attention to the craft is it looked as if there was a spotlight shining on it. It had a circular glow around it.

As I was watching the craft just disappeared. No movement or anything it just vanished right in front of me.

5 orange orbs, aligned somewhat vertically, though offset, were seen moving very slowly for about a minute My dad and I watched 5 orange orbs in the sky southeast of Bedford for just over a minute. They were not moving a lot, and during that time, 4 of them faded from view, or may have been obscured by clouds.

Group of strange light orbs over eastern Fishers, IN, for hours with no particular pattern. A set of light orbs seen in the sky over eastern Fishers, IN, for more than 2 hours (it is still occurring as this is typed). Many people within the neighborhood are standing outside watching.

Some report that this same thing happened in 2011. At first they were expected to be spotlights as you can occasionally see a slight trail as they pass through clouds. However, they seem to have no continuous pattern or looping effect that is used on a spotlight.

The light intensity varied as did the number of orbs. Maybe a meteorological phenomenon, maybe spotlights, but definitely strange.

Full Report Text:

3 orange lights in a triangle formation hovering 75ft over the top of a radio tower. The 3 lights came together and made one light and it disappeared upwards. About 7sec later it reapers in a triangle formation 75 yards to the north of the first sighting to the other side of the road.

The 3 lights came together made one light and it disappeared. The hole thing lasted about 10 to 15 sec. No solid body or frame of a craft just 3 lights.

Went out to see the full moon and over my rooftop towards the North was a greenish blue object darting all over the sky. It was met with 4 others, they lined up in a straight formation and then they were gone. There was no noise associated with it.

It changed shape from a circle to a "c" shape.

23 amber lights travelling northwest to southeast making no sound. Upon returning from the grocery, I noticed amber lights in the sky as I carried groceries from the car. They were travelling northwest to southeast and made no sound.

I counted 23 of them. They weren't keeping a strict formation and some were stragglers. I reported them to CBS 4.

I've not heard back.

My dad had called me, he said to look to the southwest of me. He was sitting outside on his patio and this V shaped object appeared out of nowhere. I began watching.

I took video and pictures. It was easier to distinguish the shape with the naked eye as my equipment is not the best. I continued to watch the object for around 25 minutes.

I came inside to swap batteries and when I returned, the object was gone. I forgot to mention, there was not a star in the sky.

Several sets of red, white, blue/green lights under triangular object East Rolling Prairie left in sky West. I spotted a triangular object in my backyard approximately 2 feet above tree top I was coming home from work that night the sky was clear I noticed this object was not moving I guess it was hovering no sound to it I had walked underneath it. It had several red, white, green/blue lights not blinking I was just amazed how huge this object was and no one seen it or heard it arrive.

I live on a highway and cars come and go, that night around that time, hardly any out. I wasn't scared just curious I backed up where I parked my car in driveway and a this triangular started to take off extremely loud, ear piercing sound I in fact had to cover my ears and squatted down it moved over my head went into the sky west blinking white lights then disappeared but I could still see it three larger lights looked like orbs went into different directions. No one in my area has came forward Did they see this too and not saying anything? ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

After returning near my neighborhood (Emerald Springs) my daughter and I noticed a very bright orange and yellow glow moving very slowly towards the neighbor hood. It was very bright and visible. The oval shaped object was descending very slowly.

The houses were in the way so we lost sight of the object for a couple of minutes. We decided to drive down county road 900 North and once again saw the object on the ground behind some trees and did it vanished.

light orbs in woods and lower sky. Various and odd light orbs in woods and low sky I am a married 59 year-old woman with a college education. I spend part of my time in a home surrounded with thick woods, at least 400 acres, near Bloomington, Indiana.

There are a couple of neighbors about one acre of wooded area away from me on one side. The landscape is hilly with ravines and trees up to 100 feet tall. Since October 2016 I have witnessed countless observations of strange lights from all sides of my home.

I have become addicted to “orb gazing” every single night I visit this country home. In a nutshell here are the types of lights I have seen over the year: Singular, stationary, white light orbs in various parts of the woods, usually from one to five feet high. I’m guessing they occur anywhere from 25 to 250 feet away from me.

I have shined a flashlight on them and sometimes I can see a glowing “orb.” It’s hard to gauge their sizes, but from where I stand at the edge of the woods they are anywhere from 1-7 inches. (I’m just guessing.

I’m not good with measurement.) Orbs that grow bigger and seem to shine right at me like a very bright flashlight. This scares me a bit.

(I’m alone out there.) I get the sense the orbs know I’m there. The last night of observation a “flashlight” glared at me as I stood transfixed in my long driveway, then suddenly just went out! I scurried away fast and stayed on my porch.

Lights that literally move as though they were eyes and are peering around. They also wobble and will sneakily move position so that I have to keep moving my head to see where they went. Morphing orbs.

I swear they sometimes divide into two or more lights and then sometimes back to one. They sometimes change color from white to yellow, gold, orange or red. Mostly they are white.

Sometimes the orbs present themselves as “headlights,” but their lights are closer together. I get a bit spooked by these types of lights, as it appears to me that they are gawking around. Lately I’ve observed bright flashes of light that appear like “flashlights” that move around.

It’s difficult to explain how they move because they seem to be controlled by “someone” or “something,” but I am absolutely certain no human is out there. I open my windows to listen and I hear nothing. Large reflected areas in the tree tops.

I have no idea what these are. I have only been seeing them recently. 8.

“Fake Stars.” I call them that because they used to fool me into thinking they were real stars. I will be looking out the upstairs windows at the trees and see sneaky little lights that first appear as stars suddenly disappear and move to another spot near, on top, or in front of the tall trees.

I’ve noticed these fake stars only come out if there are real stars out. Last night I saw one on the same night as a full moon. It seemed to twinkle at me and when I watched it, it disappeared.

I found it moments later in a lower segment of the tree. Then it disappeared again. I have been able to sometimes catch the lights with my smart phone.

I wish I had a really good night time video cam. It frustrates me not to be able to show what I see to others. A friend and my son have both seen at least one orb each.

I used to be such a skeptic and never believed in ufos or ghosts, but I have opened my mind to many possibilities. I go from thinking these lights are mystical, spirits, ghosts, entities from another dimension, and ufos. Because I am observing more “flashlight” movement and am getting the feeling that some of these lights are being controlled by some hidden force I am actually getting scared (again, like when I first started seeing these crazy things) and feel the need to share this information with others who are interested.

Why is no one I know interested? This is phenomenal stuff happening and everyone I know doesn’t care. My god, something’s going on and we need to pay attention. At the very least it seems scientists would be all over this.

They know everything about glow worms and fireflies and planets, but they are mute about the light orbs in the woods and fake stars in the sky. So in conclusion of this long-winded essay, I just want to know what these lights are. UFOs? Should I be concerned? ((NUFORC Note: Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate.

PD)).

Large stationary craft Northwest of Albion I was approaching the intersection of 100 S and 50 W. when a woman turned in in front of me and pulled up next to the field where I could see her looking at something. I looked over to the field and noticed a large stationary craft at quite a distance north northwest of Albion IN.

I went north to see if I could get a closer clearer image for a picture, but when I came through the trees it was gone (maximum of 2 minutes. The sky was clear blue with silver cast and I had 180 degree field of vision and there was no trace of it despite looking all across the sky over the next ten minutes. Size was difficult to tell based on distance but I know it was at least as big as 2 Goodyear blimps.

Color was hard to tell but I could discern metallic silvery white with some red orange but that could have been sun reflecting off the top. The shape was like two ovals connected at the end creating 2 levels.

At first I saw bright flashes of light behind the clouds. White, red and green Then I saw red rectangle lights coming through the clouds then clearly I saw a disc shape saucer with red rectangle lights around it.It was very big and only about the height of what a helicopter would fly.

After hoovering in one spot for around 5 seconds It disappeared.For a few seconds after I saw white and red flashes of light behind the clouds.

Plane like with two white lights and one red. 2 hours of same route in sky, varying speeds The object looked like a plane, but when it went around in a small area taking the same route for over an hour I started to wonder if it really were a plane. It looks smaller than a plane and for its location in the sky doesn’t seem right.

It has two white lights that continuously blink and one red light that blinks off and on. It continues to take the same strange route in the sky for almost two hours now. It started out very slow moving and speeds up and then slows down.

I have seen something similar to this exactly two years ago with some friends and we couldn’t figure it out but it was definitely not a plane.

Silent orange orbs fly very low and disappear. I saw two orange orbs from my backyard. Both were moving in different directions, one west, the other north-east.

The lights looked very low, and didn't flicker or wobble. No sound, as one flew nearly directly overhead. I called my girlfriend outside, who managed to witness one before we lost sight.

They followed a straight path before disappearing behind trees and houses. I work at night at a busy airport, and I have never witnessed anything like it. Unsettling because of their altitude and how close to home they were, and their silence.

A friend of mine several blocks to my north witnessed five orange orbs in a formation while looking my direction, on the same evening. He watched them disappear all at once, "as if turning off an old TV." Best rational explanation I can think of is Chinese lanterns or drones, though those explanations don't satisfy me.
