Nebraska UFO Sightings in 1998

Full Report Text:

Large, bright green fireball My sister reported to me that she saw a large bright green fireball in the northwestern sky. The fireball was about the size of a ping pong ball held at arm's length. It was a very bright green color and fell quickly straight down.

She had the fireball in sight for approximately 2-3 seconds before losing sight of it. (Her view being obstructed by houses).

3 Lights not as egg shaped but close, thumb nail. Flying in tryangle formation flew over for 7 seconds not to close but not far away. flew right above us.

thouht it could be a stealth but then they all inner changed like a 3 man weave. But they completly stopped, then did it real fast but not a blur. then it went a little left then slowly faded away? Three of us were talking about a friends death in the family, and how things just don't happen like that, and he was upset, eye's watering when I was layind down on a couch when I saw the object.

I was amazed. We were freaking out. I am 19 years old and go to the University.

Anyway it came over the top of us and we followed it allthe way across the sky. When it was at an angle about 45deg it innerchanged. The triangel was swithched up.

They all stopped completely and the first dropped to the rear right. and the back left went to the front after circling the other. So did the other one it went from rear right to rear left.

In perfect order and symmetry. Then shifted to the left without going forward and then went at an angle to the right and then slowly vaded out. There was three of us.

One saw it coming but he was a little tired I'm not sure he saw it. He was telling us it was the government. What ever it was I have never seen somthing like it.

I witnessed a distortion of the star field from the right to the left. North to south. I was looking at the night sky when I observed a roughly triangular shaped object whose margins were unspecific.

The "object" was transparent in the fact that I could see the bright stars of the Milky Way behind it. The night was quite clear and the star feild exceptionally sharp. As the object passed across my feild of vision the stars behind it tended to blur somewhat in comparison to the stars outside the margins of the "object".

There were no other visible lights except for the stars. The trajectory was from north to south. I am a Licensed Practical Nurse.

I am a trained observer by profession.

We saw streaks like tracers shoot out from a light in the sky. I was listening to a taped replay of Peter Davenport's appearance on the Art Bell Show on December 11th. In that show, Peter described (and played a tape of) several sightings of lights in the sky that were seen to apparently shoot out tracer-like light pulses.

On about August 1 of last year, (I didn't record the date.) my wife and I were sitting on our front porch enjoying the evening, chatting and looking at the stars. I spotted a white light moving very high in the sky and remarked to my wife that I wondered if that was a very high aircraft or perhaps a satelite.

There was no sound and, for that matter, I didn't expect any as it appeared quite distant even though it was moving across the sky fairly rapidly. We watched it for 2 to 3 minute during which time it progressed steadily moving approximately eastward. The direction and speed seemed to remain constant.

The color and intensity of the light remained stead as well. Then, while we were watching, there appeared to be 3 or four streaks of light, very much tracer-like, extend out ahead of the light. The streaks were fainter than the light of object and extended directly in the direction of travel a distance corresponding to a distance that the object would have traversed in several seconds travel time.

This occured twice. Both my wife and I were looking at the object and both of us saw the streaks. The two bursts of streaks occurred approximately 2-3 seconds apart.

Shortly after the second burst, the object vanished as though the light were extinguished. The area of the sky that we were watching at that time had no obstructions or other fixed elements that could have come between the object and our line of sight. We watched the area closely for another minute or two, trying to see the object again or anything else, but nothing appeared.

We saw nothing more that was out of the ordinary that evening. I am an architect. My wife is a Teachers Aide.

We are both in our mid 40's.

My friend and I saw a triangular shaped craft. It hovered for about ten minutes and then started moving. We saw it hovering at first we thought that is was a helicopter but then we noticed that it as triangular.

It started to move and it pulled manuvers that would have killed a normal pilot and destroyed the craft. Then, it slowly began its descent and dissapered from sight.

I remember this date and time distinctively , as it wax tax day , my first year in buisness . A friend and myself decided to go catfishing at the "salt creeek" in Ashland NE. I was a very beautiful night with clear skies .

We hung out late in hopes of catchin a big one . Around 3:30am we decided to take off , fishing was slow that night . We were heading back toward omaha on highway 6 .

Just after we had crossed the bridge by the creek , my buddy riding shotgun notices something very strange and tells me to look up . To my surprise , I notice 4 flare like objects slowly descending . One was well above the others , all of wich were no further than 1000 yards away .

Its seems to me the bigger one may have been triangle shaped . The other 3 that at first glance looked like flares descending slowly as if they were attatched to parachutes . Then all of the sudden , the 3 smaller object starting movinging around in different directions .

2 of them seemed to travel off to the west , and one seem to come straight down . Behind the trees ,the entire area in the field was lit up like a football stadium at night . At this point , I could hardly keep the car on the road .

We turned back and decided to further investigate . I found a country road , that was closest in the direction of the crafs . we were driving up this dirt road , west toward farm area .

Between us and the creek , around 3-500 yards away , we could see this glowing plasma ball like object , kinda bluish white , and green at times , howevering in the tops of a tree .Almost blinding to look at . I remeber there was also another witnes that was driving a 84 chevy s-10 pickup coming towards us .

we were both coming at each other maybe 5 miles per hour . And it was obvious , this guy was withouth a doubt looking at the same thing . After this guy passed us , i figured what the hell , ya only live once , we pulled off road into the feild and got out of the car .

Mind blown on what we were seeing we started walkin toward it .I do not remember any noise. Within a couple minutes of getting closer , it started getting super foggy .

Visibility began to get poor . The illumination of the of object grew dimmer and dimmer . all the sudden it was gone , vanised .

We waited for the fog to clear and could not find even a trace of evidence , i wished to god I would have had a camera. we still discuss it from time to time , and the last couple of years I've been keeping my eyes on these reports to see if anything else was reported around that date , or in that same exact area . I guess im posting in hopes of finding more info on what we saw .

The funny thing is , after talking about it all these years , we realized that when it was over , we were driving home at sunrise . Not sure if we lost time or not , it is possible . We are going to conduct further investigation this year with camera (digital , and completely mechanical ) .

I will post updates if we find anything . I will also try to get my bud to post as well , in case there is something he saw that i didnt . One thing is for damn sure , they were without a doubt aircraft of some sort , but definitely not of this world .

Going west to east. No sound. No lights.

Illuninated by city glare. Alt. unknown.

Straight overhead. Width, 2.5 fingers at arms length.

(Thickness of fingers). 9:46 pm, Mar 20, 1998. I went out side to get something out of my truck and heard Geese flying over.

I was looking up, blocking the house lights so I could see better. Some times when geese fly over at nite in the dark you can spot them in the city lights glare. As I looked somewhat to the west I thought I saw some comming over me going east.

But as the lights from town hit IT, I could make out a perfect triangle. For a few seconds I thought my eyes were playing a trick on me and it was really a flock of geese flying back to roost for the nite. But the harder I Iooked, the more I realized it was a solid shape, not a "V".

It looked dark gray or black with only reflected light illuminating it. It continued east untill it was out of the glare of the city. I continued to watch that direction to see if it blocked out any stars momentairly, but it didn't, (that I could tell).

When it was directly overhead, it didn't pass over any brite stars, to block them out. I couldn't tell how high it was but it was 2 1/2 fingers long. That is, the thickness of my fingers at arms length.

There were comercial jets in the area at their crusing alt. but I suspect this UFO was way lower then them because one finger could easily block them out. Not 2 to 3 like the UFO.

This is about all I saw. Just here a few second.then gone.

Summary : Father and son driving west on Hiway 6, around 6 pm. Glowing object stationary for 6 to 7 minutes. Object turns on end, then turns to show triangle shape with bright light on one end then disappears instantly to the west.

I was driving down Hiway 6 heading to Holstein with my son. We noticed a very bright light ahead in the west. It was about 6:05pm and the sun had gone down, but the sky was orange and clear with no clouds.

We noticed that the object was not moving, there were two jets farther west behind the object, which I used to judge size. The object was very large and was stationary for 6 to 7 minutes. As we turned south off of Hiway 6 on to the junction road that leads to Holstein we kept our eye on the object, which seem to be turning in place on end, to give it a long shape that look like a long glowing cylinder.

Then the object turned again and we could see that it was a triangle shaped object, with a very bright light on one of the points. We were head for the next gravel intersection road to turn west to watch the object. We turned right and while we were watching the object, it seemed to dim a bit, then it was gone instantly.

We proceeded down the road further, but there was no sign of anything. This object seemed to be very large and was definitley triangle shaped from our last view of it. It was very impressive.

It was not dark out yet, and the sky was clear, so there is no doubt that we saw something very unusual.
