blue rectangle stationary to gone in 3 sec. near total darkness in evening It was nearly dark, when I say what appeared to be a blue window rectangle hanging in the sky, it was not moving for some time then in 3 seconds it must have moved many miles and was gone, it was hard to estimate how high, but had to be very high.

We are uncertain as to whether this is intended to be a serious report. PD)).

Unexplained bright light in early morning hours My husband and I were driving east on Hwy 91, east of Albion, NE. We saw a very bright light in the sky which lit up the entire car. We did not have time to locate anything in the sky.

bright ufo passes military plane i went outside onto my third floor balcany, looked up at the moon and noticed a military type plane ( grey with the black nose ) and noticed a bright light in the sky heading its direction. it was kinda rectangled shape or saucer shaped from my p.o.

v. it was so brightly light up compared to the dim colored plane. the sun was behind clouds and the plane had almost a shadowy effect to it ( just a darker/dull color, but not from the ufo.

) so i know that the sun wasn't playing into effect here. i called to my wife to come look and she seen it also, but basically she is a non- believer so it is hard to get any response, which i think is funny since she believes in ghosts!! the plane was about 5-10 miles to the south of hwy 6 and 148 st. the plane was also closer than the ufo.

the ufo being maybe less than a few blocks to a mile away from the plane!! there is no freaking way that the pilots did not see that thing heading towards them, not so much a collision course but so very close!! i say ufo because there were no flashing anything, just a bright yellowish white light that covered the whole craft. the lincoln airport is only about 15 miles away from here and that was no plane that took off. like i said the military craft was dull compaired to the ufo.

the ufo steadily went higher and higher into the sky as it got further away at a nice slow pace towards the east. i have left a report in the past either this year or late last year about the constilation like formations that i had seen after work(might be under a different screen name). and i had just seen footage of a ufo in ashland which is only 5-6 miles away from her.

it is the closest thing i had ever seen for real.oh, plus the ufo appeared to be about half the size of the military craft. it stayed lit up like that all the way till it ran out of plain sight.

i would love to hear back about this if anyone knows how to get the info from whatever source. man o man i wish i had a camera with some film in it.

The light moved through the sky then stopped and is still sitting there. Its in the south west sky, more west than south. It still there.

It looks like a star except it was moving west then stopped. There are no stars in the sky and the sun was still up. Its still there.

Apparent intercept of unidentifed 'satellite' by second object. I was outside watching night sky last night and at 22:42 I spotted what I presumed was a satellite moving in a west to east direction. Apparent magnitude about 3-4.

As it reached the zenith I checked my watch to note the time so that I could check its identity on the Heavens-Above.com web site, which catalogs satellite and ISS tracks over my location on a nightly basis. As the object moved into the eastern half of the sky, a second object, moving at what appeared to be at least twice the first object's speed suddenly appeared to its south and intercepted the first object and then disappeared.

The first object continued on at its original speed and eventually became to faint to follow. I looked in vain for the track of the second object, which I thought might be a second satellite, but its speed and trajectory suggests to me that it wasn't an ordinary earth satellite with which I am familiar. It may have been a meteorite, but again, the odds of a meteorite appearing to intercept the original object would seem to be way too long to be probable.

As soon as the first "satellite" disappeared from view, I went into the house and looked up possible candidates crossing my area at 22:42 on a similar orbital flight path. There was only one object, a Cosmos rocket, in the sky at that time, but its trajectory was wrong. While the transit of the original object lasted several minutes -- which is the normal passage time for an earth satellite -- the "interception" episode last perhaps a second or less.

In fact the event took place so quickly, that I have the distinct impression that there were actually several objects that intercepted the first, coming from different vectors, but I am only sure about the one "intercept" which is the one that caught my attention. I was very excited about seeing this unusual phenomenon, made more so when I learned that there were no publically-cataloged satellites operating on this trajectory (orbit)at this time of the evening over my location in East Central Nebraska. While the first object could be an unlisted spy satellite, the second object is a complete unknown.

Lights over Lincoln, NE 5-21-06 I had to consult my journal to be sure of the time and date of the occurrence. A little background information: me and a former friend of mine went to Lincoln to do some work for a few weeks and we stopped by the apartment of a girl I was fooling around with. (She lived a few blocks east of the capital building, a huge art deco skyscraper.

) Come midnight, the lights went down on the Capital and we sat out on her porch gazing up at the sky. I noticed a couple of points of light moving slowly across the sky towards each other (as airplanes would if they aimed for each other) except that the lights approached each other and danced around each other and sped away, like a satellite using gravity as a slingshot. They did this dance for a while, this happened for about ten or fifteen mintues, the lights would fade in intensity and suddenly brighten (although this change in luminosity seemed to be a separate phenomenon from the speed of the "craft.

") For about 15 minutes we observed 2, sometimes three lights (although one light would always be fainter in this case) doing an impossible tango in the sky. My buddy thought it was fighter jets, and my former girl mentioned that the lights were well above the feathery cirrus clouds, and I'm pretty sure commercial aircraft don't fly that high. One guess of mine is that the lights were caused by craft skimming on the edge of the atmosphere (hte bright bursts of light caused much in the same way as the splashes caused by a water skier bouncing on the surface of the ocean.

) Also the lights would travel below the skyline of Lincoln to almost directly overhead within seconds. We could not hear any engines of jets. We debated this for probably 15 minutes before the lights faded off.

As we were about to go inside I spotted a light again. (It was moving parallel to the power lines above where we sat.) Suddenly the light brightened, and forked apart into seven or eight lights which for about two seconds moved in tandem with each other (horizontally?) before they began to swarm around and forward (like the flying machines moving en masse in the Matrix 3 or the meteors at the end of Contact moving in one direction) and shot up into the sky.

(I called Lincoln 911 afterwards, feeling rather foolish when the woman who answered laughed at me.) Even now I can believe what I saw; yet I can't. I am a skeptic through and through (I do not believe in the spiritual, I trust in science) and for me to see something with my own two eyes that not only defies the current laws of physics (or maybe it doesn't, not my field of expertise); for me to actually get a fundamental answer to the question of are we alone was something I never expected.

I figured I'd die without answers to anything (or at least the big questions.) Earlier today, a few of my friends and I got to talking UFOs and someone said I should document what I saw so . Well, not much of a story, but when I looked on here to see if anyone reported anything about it and I saw nothing from 2005, I decided better late than never.

Diamond shape craft above the horizon. On April 7th, I was looking up pat the horizon above Standing Bear Lake, which is located west of my house when I noticed a strange light. Now this light appeared to be blinking off and on.

It was still quite a distance away, but close enough to know that it was blinking and standing still. I watched it for about five minutes until I went in and brought out the binoculars. My first thought was lights from a helicopter searching the valley below, but after careful examination of the object I had to rethink this, since there was no searchlight emitting from the object.

Focusing the lenses on the binoculars, I discovered that the blinking lights emitted a read and green hue in color in the center of the object. The shape of the object appeared to be diamond shape or triangular in dimension; in fact, a faint ray of light came out on three, maybe four areas of the object, which made me think it could be diamond shape. It was definitely not a plane.

The object made no noise whatsoever. In fact, a commercial or military passenger jet flew over the house in the same general location as the object, so you could definitely tell the difference in the way the objects moved in the air relative to each other. Eventually, the object did move very slowly towards the right and up into the night sky.

Sometimes it went back to where it started, but eventually moved away. Now at the same time this is going on, I saw another non-blinking white light just above the horizon. It would move upwards and then just as fast as it appeared would disappear.

In addition, there were tiny, faint lights that appeared to be coming from the main object, but would disappear in the night sky. I watched the main object for about twenty-five minutes before I gave up and went inside.

White disc sighted while driving in Omaha. I was driving North on 50th St coming up to the F St. Intersection.

Glancing to my right I noticed a white disc shaped object rising up from the tree line at an angle on the horizon moving in a easterly direction. The object moved straight east for a short distance before I lost sight of it behind a large double billboard. Slowing the car down I caught sight of it again just past F St.

as 50th St. dips to head steeply down towards a tunnel. The object made a very quick turn and headed north just before I lost sight of it again due to the dip in the terrain.

I went through the tunnel and under the interstate 80 bridge. I tried to spot the object again as I came up the hill on the other side. I was unable to get a good look at the portion of the sky where I had seen the object until I came up to Grover St.

due to the amount of trees and homes blocking my view. When I got to the Grover St. intersection and looked around the sky as I waited for the green light.

The object was nowhere to be seen. The Object was a smooth briliant white. It had no wings.

Its movements were quick yet gracefull. Ive purchased a pocket sized digital camera as a result of this sighting. If I see anything like this again I will be ready to photograph it.

four orbed object in the middle of nowhere, possibly nevada[?] this happened about one year ago. i cannot remember anything at all, but i have a photograph i do not remember taking. the camera i took it with dissapeared several months ago.

from the photograph i am in the middle of nowhere, i think in the dessert of nevada somewhere. there are dirt mounds along side the road, with headlights directly on the nearest mound to me. on the far right of the photograph there is a working construction light shinning brightly, with road horses all around it, next to this light is an abondoned house of somesort with no power lines next or around it.

to the far left of the photograph is an object. i scanned the negative at my school, this is how i know the details. this object is a four orbed light, with depth and perspective.

inderneath it, there is a transparent tail of blue, pink, orange, and red in a type of loop. after further investigation on my own, i had vivid night terrors and night-mares. my girlfriend at the time said i sometimes talked incoherently in my sleep, and would sleep with my eyes open at times.

several weeks after that i received a strange body aches and severe changes ion my temperature which elavated drastically over 102f and dropped drastically at will to under 90f. my girlfriend, different woman, and i were in the bathroom several weeks after that incident attempting to get something out of my left middle finger. we pulled a small thorn of metal from my finger, and she loked up at me told me to remain still.

and from the center of my right tear duct, she pulled with a pair of tweezers, a larger more jagged peice of metal out. i have saved these in a plastic bag. time has been taken from me, and i am affraid.

((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)).

black object moving slowly in broad daylight suddenly disappears My boyfriend and I were looking out of the window (west) toward the airport. We live about 3 miles away. We saw an object that appeared black and round moving very slowly away from the airport.

The sun had not set yet, so it was very easy to discern the shape at that point. It was traveling east, so it was coming towards us. Within 200 feet, the object spun, and took on a cigar shape.

We ran outside to take a closer look, and by the time we got there, it had disappeared. That only took approximately 5-7 seconds. There were no clouds at the time close by.

I have never seen anything like that in my life. I called the airport to report it, and was referred to the national guard station inside the airport. The gentleman I spoke with said that there were no test flights taking place, and asked if I had seen a bird.

I am a 36 yr old woman, and I believe I would recognize a bird, as there were many flying at that time. If anyone could give me some insight on this, or possibly saw it, please let me know.

Bright oval shaped object picking up a cow. While getting ready to leave my parents house, around probably midnight, five of my friends and I were sitting on the porch of an old victorian house. The location was on 11th street and the object, hovering above a corn field looked like it was at least ten miles to the west.

The object stayed in the sky moving from side to side for about ten minutes then after watching it appeared to be gone. In this ten minute time period the oval shaped object let out a few bursts of light like it was glowing and shone a blinding bright light down to the ground an started lifting up objects. We arent sure what the object was but it most likely, with the size and shape it was, was an angus cow.

moving constillation, plus I work in Lincoln just off of highway 6. I came outside to start my car to go home when i looked up and seen approx. 5 lights (some brighter than others) flying in formation heading N-NW.

It seemed to look like a constillation in motion! Then I noticed three more moving the same direction, then at least two more. I immediately went inside to grab a co-worker to see this. A total of 4 others seen the same thing as me ,some coming to work and others leaving for the day like me.

We all looked around and noticed that they did move away rather quickly and then noticed more!!! The Lincoln air port is only about 2 miles from where I work. No planes were in the sky. I was initially shocked that we were able to see them so clear since we are surrounded by the city's lights.

I live in Eagle, Ne about 15 miles from the sighting. And i sure have seen my share of strange lights at night, but I just had to report this one.
