UFO near Offutt AFB in NE. Few miles away from Offutt AFB while at a drive in movie. Coming back from the concessions areas my son I witnessed the object.
We could not make out shape other than a light in the distance, object was moving uncharacteristically (i.e. not like an airplane, helicopter, or even a drone (was aloft for too long)) and moved in multiple directions very quickly.
No no flashing lights like a regular aircraft would. In examination of our 20ish minutes of video (poorly shot on an iPhone 10X max which made everything appear much further away), light appears to be rotating. Was joined for a short while by a second light, but was gone quickly.

It was a white and green sphere almost like a giant ball. I think it was 8 feet tall and 8 feet wide but im not sure. It was outside and pretty high up in the sky but not too high.
It made a weird crinkling noise like plastic being crumpled up. It just sat there and didnt move but right before it left it made a pop sound and went away so fast you could barely see it leave.

Alien contact I have been experiencing a alien voice in my head after a very strange experience a voice in my head for two days now, after a strange experience while I was sleeping. I felt a hand reach in my head, and it left something. I thought I was dreaming.
I have since heard a voice call itself the hookstra. They are asking me questions about our planet. They are trying to learn more about humans.
They are telling me to let everyone know they do not come in piece and they want to evict us from the planet. The way the talk to us is very strange, whatever they use hooks our thoughts. After you answer, the say things like “smart”, and don’t flip the script if I ask questions they do not want to know.
I thought ai was dreaming but I did see an enitity run off and I do have a photo of the likeness of what it looks like. I do not know how to send you a photo. I am sending a photo via email.
My phone number is 402-XXX-XXXX ((deleted)).

I was driving home from work when I looked up and I could see an oval shaped UFO looking aircraft being followed by a helicopter. It has a few very bright lights so bright I could see the aircraft was metal. It flew pretty low to the ground, I gained speed and I could see it going far away but then when I took a turn all of a sudden I saw it in front of me and the helicopter lost it.
I then saw it lowering down to the ground, so low I couldn't see it behind some houses about 1000 feet away when I drove past the houses where the UFO was I saw it flying at the same distance from the ground foward and then it gained speed losing track of it. The UFO had a long strip of a white light and a yellowish light on the front. Also when I came home there were two fading lines in the sky.

I was driving to my home from school. I thought I seen a shooting star it was moving so fast. It blazed across the sky and got closer and closer.
Next thing I know it was a couple hundred feet away from me. It appeared invisible but I could see a very very thin outline and on each corner of the rectangle there was a bright white light on each corner and in the front(?) Of the craft there was 2 smaller yellow lights closer to eachother. The craft appeared to be cloaked or just happened to be the same exact color as the dark blue dusk sky.
It made a quiet noise once it was hovering over the field right by my car. The noise is best described as similar to an airplane but much much quieter. This happened to be about a mile from the air force base.
So, could have been something from there.

I walked out side to let the dog out and noticed in the sky multiple bright lights flying in an odd pattern. At first they had a bluish hue to them. I thought that they were spot lights of some kind but began to realize the lights were actually coming from behind the clouds.
They were flying at a great speed. The flight path was pretty repetitive but at times they would fly in a irregular pattern. They would also fly at different altitudes throughout their orbit.
After about 10 mins 3 of the lights trailed off and only two were left. At this point the lights lost their blue color and became more silver/white. I called my neighbor and his fiance to come and look at them also in order to make sure that someone else witnessed this event other than myself.
It is possible that it was spot lights but the light appeared to be coming from behind the clouds and it definitely was not a regular aircraft. Also the flight path was not how an automated spot light wo! uld move. The airspace in which the lights were located was a barren field where there is nothing but farm land.
I believe they were probably flying in close proximity of the Iowa-Nebraska border. Another thing to note is that the area that this occurred was very close to a major US Air Base. ((NUFORC Note: Witness provides no contact information.
PD)).

Four identical objects observed Near OAFB by two adults. START TIME: Approximately 2010 Hrs END TIME: Approximately 2030 Hrs I took my dog out to relieve himself just before going to the store, when I noticed an object with flight characteristics which were not similar to any usual air craft. The object was ovular in shape and had lights that were intermittently visible.
The lights were an orane-red and yellow color (normal aircraft, even military, have green or red on either wing tip). The object was dark grey in color and seemed to sort of vanish and re-appear suddenly. The object rotated about 240 degrees along its longitudinal axis while maintaining a steady trajectory from SSW (Somewhere west of Platsmouth) to NNE (towards downtown Omaha/Missouri River).
It is also important to note that the craft was not uniform in shape, as it rotated, it revealed smooth flat sides along the forward and aft sections of this exotic object. I immediately ruled out celestial bodies such as stars, planets, meteoroids and so forth due to the altitude which I estimate was about 5,000-10,000 feet from ground level. The object emitted no detectable sound despite it's proximity and high rate of speed.
I was able to confirm that it was in atmosphere due to the fact that it was passing between the clouds and myself. I could also rule out any sort of illusion or phenomenon as the object was in plain view the most of the time I was observing it. When it seemed to vanish, I was still able to predict where it would re-appear and begin tracking it again as it moved steadily.
I observed this first object until I could no longer see it all the while, trying to get my wife's attention who was inside getting our kids ready to go. She finished that about one minute after the initial object disappeared. After about two more minutes pass by.
At this time, as we are loading the kids in the truck, both, my wife and I observed a second object matching the description of the first. This object exhibited the same behaviors and travelled what I perceived was the same route. Upon seeing the second object my wife and I changed our plans and decided to drive around in the rural area two miles south of Bellevue Nebraska.
Upon beginning our drive, going west on Capehart toward 36th Street, we observed two more objects matching the description of the aforementioned, flying on the same path and a similar altitude. This previously mentioned observation occurred approximately 4 minutes after the second object left visual contact. Upon driving around in the rural areas we observed no further objects.
Additional thought tells me that if there were only two objects, they would have to begin traveling from the point of final visual contact to the point of initial contact at an amazing speed while deviating significantly from their originally observed path. It is much more probable that there were a total of 4 objects. To the reader: Be advised that I am a seasoned military member who lives near an AFB.
I see various craft on a daily basis at all hours and during all weather conditions yearly. While this occurred after sunset, the sky was mostly clear and there was near maximal lighting from the moon. I am well versed in aircraft and discerning between any sort of optical illusion or phenomena.
Based on these circumstances, I conclude that these were some form of manufactured, atypical craft which were intelligently controlled. I draw no other conclusions. I attempted to record the second occurrence on my phone but as you can imagine the video quality does not do the event justice.
I do however, still have the video.

at a distance of approx. 2 miles from Offutt. It was first considered a possible slow moving aircraft in the traffic pattern.
Upon departing Offutt and proceeding west on Capehart Road, the item was witnessed moving at approx. 50-70 knts towards the south/southwest. While stopped on the Capehart/Ft.
Crook Road bridge, the object continued south/southwest at a constant speed, still maintaining its mid-level brightness of a gold color, until it quickly faded out as it entered low level clouds. It then hovered there for approx. 1 minute, until it suddenly winked out.
The object never appeared to make any sound. With no traffic in the vicinity, no sound could be heard.

Very unusual craft seen over Bellevue NE, headed for Offutt. While hanging out with a couple of buddies I noticed some hovering very close to the ground approximately 5 miles north of us, at first we thought it off thinking it was a police helicopter. A couple of minutes later I glanced back in that direction, saw that it was still in the same location, then i saw it drop several small objects that appeared to be blinking red.
I pointed it out to my buddies and they saw it as well, so we decided to watch it. Pretty soon we notice it getting closer until it passed us about 100 feet to the east, it was coasting about 200 feet in the air, very quiet emitting a very soft and low pitched noise, I'd say it was moving about 75 miles per hour. It look like a dark colored orb with three bright white lights (one on each side and one on the very front, it also had a green light which came on and looked like a laser but could only see it until it got about 20 feet away from the craft and it was changing direction and seem to be m! oving around the surface of it.
After passing us it turned east headed for Offutt air force base, we tryed to follow it all roads into the area of the base were closed, and we lost it.

Shape-Changing Aircraft I live in Bellevue, Nebraska, a town not far from the city of Omaha. In the center of the town is Offut Air Force Base, so perhaps the crafts that I have been seeing are somehow military-related. Lately, me and several people I know have been seeing strange lights in the sky.
The first occurence happened on probably about the tenth of august. My friend was in a park with his girlfriend, and they were staring at the sky, looking at stars that were out. Suddenly, their attention was drawn to a bright light that was hovering in the sky.
It seemed to dance around in the sky for a few minutes. My friend then noticed several aircraft approaching the light. The light then took off directly into the sky and dissappeared from sight.
The aircraft that had chased the light away then flew a grid in the sky and flew off out of sight. Since this date, Me, my girlfriend, the two people stated above, and two of my other friends have seen strange shape-changing craft in the sky, all sightings occured on the same road, Harlan Lewis road, known as Base Lake road to the locals. The first occurence I witnessed was on about the 18th of august.
Me and my girlfriend were driving home and making a turn onto Harlan Lewis Road. We saw a helicopter approaching in the distance. As we drew closer to the helicopter, we thought it was changing shape.
We were soon driving under this aircraft, which now resembled an X with several flashing lights on it. It stayed as this shape only while directly above us, then changed into the shape of an Airplane, and it changed the pattern of its flashing lights. The second occurence what on the 23rd of august, when me, my girlfriend, and two of my other friends were driving down Harlan Lewis Road.
One of my friends pointed out a helicopter that was flying not too far from us. It then flew behind some trees, out of view, and when it emerged from the other side of the trees, it had changed into the shape of an airplane, and also changed its light pattern and color. The other friend in the car didnt pay any attention to the sky during this, so he never saw anything.
But everyone who did see it was 100% convinced that the aircraft changed shape. Also, all of the described objects above made no sound at all, as a plane or helicopter would.

Two rectangular objects emitting red lazers My wife and I live in Sarpy County Nebraska and were out on our balcony when we seen two rectangular objects above our complex , they were [not] planes nor were they moving. The strange and perhaps frightening thing was they both appeared out of no where and we both were in awe. The one elevated above the other one really and I mean extremely slowly , then all of a sudden we seen both of them in what appeared to be targeting our balcony in which we were standing with red lasers.
We both couldn't even move nor talk to one another at that time , it was like we were in shock. These red lasers were not pin lasers by any means and they moved on the edge of our balcony as well as landing on each of us. As soon as we looked down and seen these red laser balls on our bodies they disappeared as well as both rectangular objects in the night sky.
This took place right around midnight and lasted no more than 15 minutes , furthermore the same night while laying in bed trying to sleep after what we just witnessed we seen a red laser on our bed move and bounce around yet nothing outside as we both jumped and looked out our window. Now I understand this sounds off the wall , however we both are very educated people and we called no one over the mere fact we fear someone would think we were totally crazy.

NEW YEARS DAY SURPRISE I OPENED MY FRONT DOOR, WHICH FACES SOUTH, TO GET A BREATH OF FRESH AIR. I NOTICED STRAIGHT AHEAD (SOUTH) A LIGHT THAT SEEMED TO BE GETTING LARGER, AND SEEMED TO BE MOVING CLOSER. I GOT SCARED, AND QUICKLY SHUT THE DOOR.
THINKING THAT I MUST HAVE MADE A MISTAKE IN WHAT I SAW, I REOPENED THE DOOR, AND SAW THAT THE LIGHT WAS GETTING BRIGHTER AND CHANGING COLORS FROM A YELLOWISH REDDISH LIGHT TO A BRIGHT WHITE LIGHT. IT WAS MOVING IN A NORTHERLY DIRECTION, AND JUST WHEN I THOUGHT IT WOULD GET CLOSER, IT TURNED HEADING WEST, AND THAT'S WHEN I NOTICED THE VERY DARK OBJECT THAT I COULD JUST MAKE OUT THE SHAPE AS BEING DISC SHAPED. IT WAS MOVING VERY SLOWLY, AND DIDN'T MAKE A SOUND.
I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE IT WAS A BLIMP, BUT EVEN BLIMPS MAKE A SOUND WHEN IT GETS NEAR, AND THIS THING DIDN'T. I STOOD AND WATCHED THIS 'THING' UNTIL I LOST SIGHT OF IT OVER THE TREE TOPS. I WATCHED THE NEWS, AND LISTENED TO THE RADIO BUT NEVER DID I HEAR OF A SIGHTING, OR PEOPLE SEEING SOMETHING STRANGE.
MAYBE PEOPLE WERE STILL CELEBRATING NEW YEAR'S EVE TO NOTICE. I WILL SAY THAT THERE IS AN UNITED STATES AIR FORCE BASE LESS THAN A MILE AWAY!.

Bright lights "jumping" across the night sky. I was standing outside watching the sky when I saw a group of red and white lights. The lights were blinking as they seemed to jump around or fly erratically.
I watched it for about a minute when it just disappeared.

Black Tear Drop Shape over Offut Air Force Base. The week before the airshow (Thunder in the Heartland Aug 26-28) at Offut Air Force Base, while taking children to school I observed a black tear-drop shaped silhouette aprox 1-5 miles away.It appeared from behind the trees and disappear behind another set of trees.
The craft was flying slowly from the SW to the South. The teardrop shape was oriented so that the smaller pointed end was the front of the aircraft. It gave me the impression of being slow and ponderous.
I did not observe any tail section, propellors or rotors. Since it was a side-on silhouette I would not have been able to observe any wings. As it flew behind the trees I pointed it out to the driver of the vehicle I was in.
We waited for it to come out from behind the trees but, it never did. ((NUFORC Note: Given that the sighting occurred close to an Air Force base, our first consideration would be that the witness might have observed an aircraft. Since the sighting occurred just days before an air show seems to emphasize such a possibility.
The shape of the object is reminiscent of the fuselage of a Hughes 500-series helicopter. However, that is only a guess. We will attempt to pin down the precise date of the sighting.
