5 horizontal lights side by side on single object traveling west to east at moderate speed While traveling down hwy 50 from Seymour Indiana to Muscatatuck urban training center, a light caught my eye from the vehicle I was traveling in as the front seat passenger. I immediately turned my head to the right and saw 4 lights equally spaced together and a 5th light spaced twice the distance apart as the first 4 lights traveling horizontally, parallel to the roadway we were traveling moving in the same direction as we were, west to east. They were traveling at a constant speed of an estimated 150 to 200 mph judging by our speed of 60 mph.
It was still dark outside and no size or shape of the object that the lights were attached was noted. No navigation, running, or landing lights were seen. No indication of wings were noted.
The objects then disappeared behind trees and were not seen again. The weather conditions were cold, dry with a cloud cover preventing any stars or the moon to be seen. It was estimated that the object was at approximately 1000 feet in altitude and approximately 1 mile in distance from our vehicle.
The lights were bright but no more than a vehicle high beams with a yellowish tint. The object was moving in the same direction as us so it wasn’t confused with the reflection of an oncoming vehicle. No noises were noted coming from the vehicle.
Our vehicle windows were up however. No exhaust or trail was noted. I am fine with being contacted by an investigator if desired by NUFORC.

I am a 38yr old man, of sound mind and in good health. This is my first ever sighting.I was traveling north on Hwy 11 (ewing st.
) at roughly 10:45pm. As I passed the 9th st turn by the Citgo, i looked to my left and out of nowhere, what resembled a shooting star was about half way across cemetery, and only 60 ft or so off the ground. I was traveling just under the speed limit of 35mph, and it was easily doing 3 times that.
As it traveled past me, i saw something break away from the main and it too was seemingly on fire, but more of a quick flash. The main was at about a 25 degree angle so i estimate that whatever it was probably landed near the next cemetery on up. It was unlike anything im used to seeing in the air, and although i couldnt see what it was, it felt like it was bigger than a helicopter but smaller than an airline plane.

One and two, quiet, red/orange glowing objects in the sky on 4th of July about 9:45 to 10pm, on the way home and after I got home. On the way home going north on Burkhart Road in Seymour, IN, nearing Aisin factory I saw a glowing orange/red object drifting across the sky. It made no noise.
This was myself and my husband. We turned onto our street of Darcis Drive and parked the car, and stood in the front yard and the neighbor came over to watch fireworks with us. There were 2 objects in the sky slowly moving north.
Again they were quiet. We stood there and watched and after a few minutes they were out of sight.

Three objects in sky above Seymour I was driving home from a buddies house heading south when I noticed a bright object in the sky. At first glance I wrote it off as a star or a planet, and then I noticed two more bright objects. I have always been into astronomy and this was unlike anything I had ever seen before.
I was deeply excited so I raced home and ran outback and the object that was in the upper left had disappeared but the middle and the bottom right one was still there. At this point I ran in and got my Step Sister and her friend to confirm that this was not a star by just showing them what I was looking at and they too were struck with a since of confusion as to what it was. The one that was in the bottom right hand corner had moved up above the center one and started to move towards the north.
While the center object appeared to stand almost still in the sky, moving only slightly but in such a way to suggest that it was not just moving due to the rotation of the earth. They appeared as bright objects and looked like they had a triangle shape to them similar to a stealth bomber. I know that there is a bombing range and an urban training center just about twenty or so miles in the direction that they where in which is east relative to Seymour.
But I am certain that they were not because I have observed the flight habits of them at air shows and my stepsister grew up in an air force family and she was convinced that it was unlike anything she had ever seen. Short list of details. During the observation we saw many aircraft pass through the sky (aprox.
4-7). There was a blur around the objects. I went in to get my telescope and it is when I came out that the second one had started to move away.
I was only able to get a quick glimpse of the middle object because it seemed to move every time I would get it in my sighting scope before I looked through the scope.

Round object seen in the forest Object hovered and quickly left. Caught on film. It was approximately 9:00 P.
M. Monday, July 9th, 2007. I was in the forest west of Seymour, Indiana.
 I looked up and saw an unusual object stationary in the sky well above the tree line, yet below the clouds (it was a cloudy night-no stars were visible). The object was round and metallic in form with three round lights on the underside. I quickly grabbed the disposable camera I had with me and snapped a picture-which did turn out.
 The episode was brief in nature-lasting only about a total of no more than two minutes. The object hovered in one spot for a brief time and then quickly left-ascending into the clouds, leaving a green trail as it left. It was unlike any other flying object I have ever known or witnessed.
 There was some sound associated with this object, one which is difficult to describe. It sounded like a low pitched hum, which intensified when it left. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

A flock of 1000 lighted ducks soaring between Mars and Earth blocking Mars for a split second. I was leaving for work at 10:15 pm and while walking out of my house I noticed how many stars were out and how bright they were. I looked south to see how bright Mars was was and saw a bunch of tiny stars I thought.
Istood there thinking what constallation is that? The longer I stood there I noticed it was moving! It looked like a thousand stars in a concurve line, moving south. It was between me and Mars because for a split second Mars was gone. I went to work and asked people if they saw anything but no one did.
The best way to describe it would to be as if I was watching a thousand ducks in a flock with lights on them and instead of a v in a concurve line with an aura around them. What ever it was it was beautiful.

A giant glowing object resembling a car headlight floated across the night sky and then shot straight up through the clouds It was an overcast night and the craft was below the clouds. It looked as if a giant headlight were hanging in the night sky. That's the best way I can describe it, because it wasn't a ball of light, but rather a focused beam of light pointing across the sky in one direction.
I'm sure you're familiar with the term "no inertia".it hung in the sky for several seconds and then took off without any build-up to a speed of what a small airplane might run at if it were at full speed. But like I said, when it took off it was instantly at that speed.
There was absolutely no sound coming from the object as it paced itself to a point in the distance about 1-2 miles away from us and then.WOOOSH! it shot straight up through the clouds exactly like in the movies.the speed mirrored a bolt of lightning.
Anyway, that was it. The friends I had with me, although I haven't seen them in a few years, still won't talk about the incident. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that date of the incident is approximate.
PD)).

1993 Diamond Shaped Outside of Seymour, IN, near Rockford, IN. In the summer of 1993 me and two friends witnessed a diamond shaped UFO. Matt was driving, Joe was in the front seat and I (Jason) was in the backseat of the Chevette.
Matt was taking me home so we had to drive through Rockford. It was evening and we weren’t on DST back then. It was about 9:30pm-10:30pm when this occurred.
Basically I was in the middle of telling them about some orange glowing balls I had, at the time, saw for the last few weeks before when this occurred, which really was strange timing, but unrelated. We were rounding the curve just outside of Rockford when I noticed a bright light just over Madden Hill. I convinced Matt to stop the car just about 300-400 feet (maybe more) from the curve.
We watched in awe as the light turned into two lights, and then three.and then we all got out of the car. It was amazing because it wasn’t like the lights I had seen previously.
The lights slowly kept multiplying, at the time we didn’t realize it was the object moving toward us, and the shape of the object became apparent as a diamond. There was moon light that night and I remember other cars pulling over to watch too. The object didn’t make a sound.
It had eight lights on it and the lights were staggered evenly. The tip of the object had a light and the rear tip did too. The other lights were on the edges and seemed to be placed halfway between the center points of the diamond shape.
The object was very black and contrasted against the deep glowing blue sky. It flew parallel with old highway 11 and continued on toward town. We all watched it until it couldn’t be seen anymore.
At the time I couldn’t believe how close it seemed, but looking back it must have been really big because of how much of the sky it actually blocked out and how far we watched it travel. I would really like to connect with anybody else that stopped and watched it that evening. There were at least 6 other cars that pulled over and watched.
I know there was a red and white truck that was about 100 foot from us pointing in the opposite direction that had stopped and the people got out and watched. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date is approximate. PD)).
