All Reported UFO Sightings in Rochester, Indiana

Lots of maneuvers! While on morning break, my mom and I saw a light resembling a star. It moved rapidly, so we continued to observe it. We noted how controlled it’s movements were and also how far it moved across the sky in a very short amount of time.

It was totally silver in color, and we saw it give off red and blue/green lights once it got to a fairly high altitude. They flashed for a moment, and then not again after that. We took several videos and noticed it’s disc shape and how it seemed to defy gravity.

It moved unlike any drone, helicopter or jet we have ever seen. It made end over end maneuvers and bounced across the sky, speeding extremely high and coming back down just as fast. I don’t see a place to attach my videos, but I am willing to share them via email.

We both noticed the light and then it shrunk in size until it disappeared. My daughter and I noticed the light. I asked her what it was.

The sky was still blue so the bright white light was very noticeable. As we drove closer it just hovered shrunk in size and disappeared. This all happened in around 90 seconds.

We found out from my son that his buddy had recorded this same light on his snap chat account asking everyone frantically what it was. We live just down the road from this location and have had a few other sightings/experiences over the last several years but have never reported any of them as we didn’t want to be labeled “crazy”.

We were stargazing and we saw a v-formation of brownish orange lights. These lights were traveling NNW. While watching this formation of lights, a v-formation (8) came out of the orignal group and started traveling more west, then regrouped a short time later.

The group was difficult to see because of the color of the lights. If you weren't watching closely you could miss them. We heard no engine sounds during this time.

The next day i told my daughter about what we had seen and she told me to report it because another woman in the Rochester erea had seen the same thing.

Huge hovering craft with large spot light beams.s. Spotted odd lights approaching from the East going west.

Pulled off the road and shut off truck to observe! A huge craft probably 4 or 500 feet wide hovered silently at aprox. 100 feet over the highway. Initially emitted 3 lights, then 4, then 5.

Very bright. At this point I started to get concerned about my wife and I and our safety. It then took off west in a flash it was out of sight! Unbelieveable size and speed? No flashing lights? Several people reported seeing it in northern part of Fulton County.

I was not our aircraft I am sure of that!.

My friend and I saw two bright lights that moved at a incredible rate. 2 jets followed the lights and they disappeared. It took place during the summer of 84 my friend and I were outside looking at the stars because it was a very clear night.

As we were looking we saw a bright light that was "gliding" across the sky we were shocked because we could tell it wasn't a plane. Soon another light appeared floating nearby the first. We watched them for awhile until we began to lose sight of them so we ran down the road to a park to watch more.

When we got there, what appeared to be two jets (possibly from Grissom Air Force Base) were in pursuit of the lights. The lights broke off from each other and the jets broke off to follow. The first jet went after the first light and as the jet got near to it, it seemed like the light paused for a moment and suddenly shot across the sky leaving the jet behind like it was standing still.

The second jet followed the second light until it got too close and suddenly the second light made a DEAD stop in the air and made a complete reverse of direction passing the jet and soon after disappearing in the same fashion as the first. If anybody else has had any experiences like mine I would like to know because I really haven't discussed this with too many people and its dificult to talk with someone who has no frame of reference.

Two objects seen one at close range in November of 1980 In 1980 I was an unemployed construction worker living in north central Indiana. I lived in a rural area with my closest neighbors being a mile away. The road I lived on was a dirt road not very often traveled by others.

It was a warm night in November (for Indiana) and there was no wind at all. It was a new moon so it was a great night to go fox hunting so I got my shotgun and red head lamp and started to the field. I had to cross two triangle shaped fields, one was approximately 500 yards by a quarter mile the 2nd field was approximately 300 yards by a quarter mile.

As I stepped into the first field I looked up and saw two red lights about 100 feet apart. I knew there were two radio towers in that direction so I did not give it any thought. It was about midnight and very dark so I did not look up again until I entered the next field.

When I did look up the lights had changed directions. The lights had made a right turn and now were crossing in front of me heading south at a very slow speed. The craft was over the fence row that separated the 2nd & 3rd fields.

The field I was entering was 300 yards across and the craft was about 200 feet up. When I saw the craft it scared the hell out of me. I got behind a big tree and turned my light off.

It was a still night and the craft made no sound at all. It was 80-100 feet across and shaped oblong with two red lights on the outer edges. I saw no windows or any other lights I watched from behind the tree for 15 minutes or more, the craft seemed to stop once and then moved on.

When it got to the long end of the field it turned right and slowly moved off out of sight. I stood there for a while trying to decide what I should do go hunting or go home. I was 24 and needed the money so I went hunting.

I went into the third field and set up in the middle on top of a hill. As I sat there not able to take my eyes off the sky I saw another craft a mile or so away. It was also going very slow and was zig zaging between the houses.

I watched this one for an hour and a half by that time it was close to 2 AM. I decided to give up on fox hunting and go home for the night. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate.

PD)).
