Full Report Text:

I was sitting at table looking out sliding door at lake when I saw what I thought was maybe a plain on fire there was a lot of smoke In a circle cone looking just at tree level I got up to see more and something came out of the smoke in down ward motion the smoke retracted and disappeared and object was down in low part of page dam and could not see it for a while I went out on deck and this object went straight up into these two big clouds in the sky was very fast moving no sound at all and we have military jets flying around here often and they are loud. Anyway, I watched this object go into cloud then it moved to next cloud then back to the cloud it moved out of and few min later it came out sitting between the two clouds it was a dark image hard to make out that high and it seamed to be smaller than it was when it came out of the smoke I watched for a while then went on in to house could not believe what I had just seen it was like nothing I have seen fa! st and quite moving in sky. ((NUFORC Note: Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate.

I observed an unidentified craft flying somewhat low being pursued by 4 fighter jets o Jasper, Indiana attorney about 18:50 on 12/15/17 I observed what I thought was a damaged aircraft as it made no noise. It had two dim white lights. I estimate the attitude to be between 5-8 thousand feet.

It was headed southeast at about 100 degrees heading. Two fighters pursuing about 2 minutes behind. Another set of fighters followed at 2 minutes behind the lead fighters.

Flying at approximately 30,000 feet from Chicago O'Hare to Orlando, FL, over the skies of Indianapolis, IN, my 9 year old daughter got my attention. "What is that black thing near those clouds?" I immediately looked out the Boeing 767 port side window and noticed a black disc approximately 1,000 feet below about the size of an automobile, no wings, no vapor trail and it was perfectly visible because we were above the clouds with the object, contrast of the object was perfect. My wife also saw the object and asked me, "What is that? That doesn't look like a plane to me!" She is a seasoned flier, over 1,000 flights easy for business and travel, can identify nearly all commercial aircraft.

After about 20 seconds time the object disappeared in the distance heading in a northeast direction. I'm former Air National Guard, worked for 4 different airlines and Aviation Management major in college. I know the FAA doesn't allow drones at 29,000 feet, especially in Class Bravo airspace.

Familiar with both Air National Guard bases in Indiana and know they do not operate this type of object the 3 of us witnessed. Daughter later told me the object had a "green dot or light" on top of disc.

Three lights zoomed across the northern sky. Looking into the northern sky, three dim lights in form of a tight triangle zoomed across the sky in a northern direction then with a quick swoop went into a northwest direction. It was too fast for an airplane, the lights were not flashing, no sound.

The lights itself was not bright almost in a "transparent" sort of form. I have never seen anything like this before and it only lasted like 30 seconds or so.

Look like eclipse of Sun as just a slither could be seen, like something transparent covering the Sun, but Sun had been down for 45 mins? After I thought about it, I thought maybe it was some odd reflection in the sky of the Sun in the West, as it was low on the Horizon also. But the size was too Large for it to be anything but Sun, Moon, or unexplained object in sky. I went home to get Wife and Son to see it, but it was gone.

In fact I asked my Son if there was an event he forgot to tell me about as he follows weather closely. I am sure someone seen besides me, as roads were fairly busy at the time. I have seen comets before, or One burn in the sky, but this was stationary and Large.

Spotted an UFO while driving home from work: It was small and cigar shaped with orange lights. While driving home from work I noticed a cigar shaped craft in the sky just near Farmland Indiana going towards Parker City. It was low, maybe only a couple hundred feet from the mature pine trees.

I slowed down my vehicle, and the craft seemed to slow down to, as if I noticed it, but it could've just been the fact that I stopped moving and made the craft appear to be slowing down too. But I sped home, and as soon as I would've come parallel to the craft it was gone. Other things I had noticed while driving where the orange lights near the rear.

The day was cloudy so it was very visible against the gray sky. No other strange behavior aside from just coasting beneath the clouds. Very strange!.

multiple red lights, flying in groups of 2 or more, over Indianapolis on 10/6/2017 Multiple red lights, in groups of two or more, moving at steady pace from south to north, visible with naked eye, above western half of Marion County, in front of cloud cover. Speed was steady, not fast, not erratic. As they approached thicker cloud cover, we lost sight of them.

Overall time span lasted about 11 minutes. They emitted no sound, no flashing or strobes. In each grouping, the individual lights did not alter position within the group, or individually speed up/slow down.

Full Report Text:

Series of 3-5 lights seen multiple times in various formations, never making a sound or changing light intensity regardless of angle. UNEXPLAINED BRIGHT LIGHTS FLYING SLOWLY IN THE SKY OVER CROWN POINT, INDIANA. FIRST NOTICED DUE TO OUR DOG GROWLING AT THEM.

THEY WOULD SLOWLY APPROACH FROM WHAT LOOKED LIKE A FEW MILES WEST OF MY LOCATION NEAR CROWN POINT HIGH SCHOOL, RISE INTO THE CLOUDS ROUGHLY OVERHEAD, THEN REAPPEAR FROM THE SAME DIRECTION A MINUTE OR TWO LATER, REPEATING THE SAME PATTERN. EACH APPEARANCE WOULD LAST PERHAPS 5 MINUTES OR SO. BETWEEN 3-5 WERE SEEN AT A TIME.

THEY WERE COMPLETELY SILENT, NEVER BLINKING OR CHANGING INTENSITY REGARDLESS OF WHERE THEY WERE, AND IN DIFFERENT GROUPINGS EACH TIME (CLOSE TOGETHER, SPREAD OUT, RANDOM, STRAIGHT LINE, DIAMOND, CURVED LINE, AND TRIANGLE). AFTER APPROX. 30 MINUTES AND 5-6 APPEARANCES, THEY ROSE INTO THE CLOUDS ONE BY ONE AND WERE NOT SEEN AGAIN.

orb of light traveling silently The evenings of September 25th, 26th, and the 27th, I and my fiancée witnessed a ball of light in the sky. The first night I was by myself outside on my back porch and I saw a ball of light move from the southwest to what seemed like the northeast and it faded away in like five seconds but it was not a meteor cause of the speed it was moving at which seem very slow and it wasn’t a plane. The next evening, I was outside with my fiancée and we were out around the same time as I was the night before 8:30 and we both saw a light like I did before except moving from east to west.

We saw it for about four or five seconds then it disappeared. We thought that was cool and said it was interesting and as we said that it reappered for like a second heading in the direction. The third night was the weirdest cause around the same time on the 27th I and my fiancée were sitting and I asked her if I should ask Yahweh to send a ufo for us to observe and she said sure.

So I stretched my arms out and ask Yahweh to seen a ufo. We sat there for five minutes and she went inside. I stayed for a few more minutes and just as I was about to go inside I saw it in the corner of my eyes.

I turned to see a white flashing light blink several times so I yelled for my fiancée to come back outside and she made it in time to see the light. It flashed about 8 more times not in a pattern but once then three times then two and it started to faded away and it was gone. Yeah, I know it sounds weird, but that’s my story, and I’m sticking to it.

Light/object moved sporadically for almost 50 minuets, unexplainable speed and precision. Stepped outside to have a smoke, and I tend to look at the sky, and to the northeast sky, I see a light, flashing like a plane far off in the distance would, but I noticed the object wasn't moving away or towards me but rather up and down, rather quickly. Also it moved in an oval shape from time to time and also in a close figure eight movement.

It also seemed to turn, that's when I noticed it wasn't really flashing but something else. I really can't explain how this thing was moving. I have a few videos I tried to take.

You can clearly see the light/object. You can see it moving sporadically up and down, side to side. My heart was pounding a few times because of the way this thing was moving, and how fast and precise it was.

Honestly amazing.

I saw an orange dotted triangle with the orange dots on each side that changed its formed. I was out with my family and I had just gotten back from the store. Well I kept hearing my mom and sister say, "what the f.

" and I looked up and there were 3 orange dots making a triangle, and 2 other dots on each other. My sister rushed in and got my dad and when I went to take a picture of the triangle my phone started to glitch really bad. When my dad got outside the triangle had started to change and I don't know how to explain the shape it was in.

I recorded it though. That same night my friend sent me a picture of a triangle with 3 white lights from his bedroom window. While all this was going on my cat was acting really weird and attacked my sister and he never does that.

Looking out my bedroom window I saw a triangle shape fly by rather slow. I grabbed my phone and ran outside but it was gone. I looked around the sky, towards the constellation Orion and noticed the stars were very bright.

What I thought was a star changed colors! Red,blue green and zipped away. Minutes after all sorts of strange planes started circling the area.the planes did have lights.

Some flashing white or red.i thought they could be commercial or something but they were all over the place! Circling the area. I'm not sure how many, 4-6 I think.

I also notice the two covered in solid, bright white light were very strange! They didnt blink but they glowed and made noticed a few solid red lights flying at high altitude! sound. Also what looked like a military plane or something.with solid, bright, white lights was flying at low altitude emiting some kind of mist.

They flew directly over me twice! They made no sound either.I have never seen soo many flying objects in the sky in one place! I would like to know if anyone else seen these strange craft in Jeffersonville, IN, on Sept 22, 2017, around 4-5am.

Standing in the parking lot talking with my co-workers after closing our store for the night. The Sun was almost set but, there was still light in the sky. Something caught my attention in my peripheral vision.

I turn my head to the left and RIGHT above our store in the strip mall was a bright red light in the shape of a saucer (I personally didn't see the actual craft itself) I said "what the hell is that?" Which made my co-workers turn to look. In that instant, 3 of the 4 of us seen this bright red light slowly moving from the east to the west above our store. It then turned slightly to its right and then COMPLETELY disappeared right before our eyes.

As if it turned into a portal or went behind a veil. It LITERALLY disappeared!! We all started jumping up and down with excitement because we KNOW what we just witnessed together!! There was no mistaking what it was. There was no tracer of light, there was no sound whatsoever!! It wasn't a firework (no sound and this light was too big for that).

It definitely wasn't a drone of any sort because as I said, this bright red light LITERALLY disappeared before our very eyes.

It's a clear cool night. I was letting the dog out in front of house and looked at the stars. I noticed a bright white light originated from the northwest moving quickly to the northeast.

It moved at a constant urgent speed it began brighter than a bright star, and as it traveled, it went bright to dim and smaller until not visible. Like a passing ball would seem bigger as it got closer and then smaller as it got further away. It made no sounds and no trails.

Thought to be star or planet Last night I stepped out onto our patio to have a smoke and enjoy the cooler weather. My back yard faces west, with a generous rural view. Usually I I drink my morning coffee while looking at falling meteors.

After sitting down, I looked out at the night sky. Over to the northwest part of the sky, I noticed a bright yellowish star or planet, no big deal. after playing a game on my phone I looked up and the light had moved closer.

This caught my attention so I stood up to look a little longer. It was moving south east . thought it was a plane but there were no wing lights or sound.

as I watched, I called to my wife to come look at this. then all of the sudden the yellowish light changed into a a white highlighted arrow shape, it changed patterns a few times, then stayed on the arrow head shape and dissappeared. have never see anything like this ever.

as far as my personal background, I'm an artist, and my eyes are trained to see what's there not what I want to see.
