Full Report Text:
Very large half circle overlapping the moon. Object was brighter than the moon. White with a thin bright green outline.
I was sitting on the couch and noticed a very bright light coming through the window. I went to the window and observed the a strange bright shape overlapping the moon. I went upstairs and also observed it from multiple windows in several different rooms.
I have witnessed eclipses in the past but this was not similar to any I have seen. The brightness of the object surpassed that of the moon which is why it caught my attention from the living room. There was a neon like green outline to the half circle shaped object.
I took photos with my phone but the pictures do not capture completely what I was viewing. I have never seen anything like this. Weather conditions were clear with no wind gusts.
There were no clouds visible. I watched and photographed the moon and object for approx. 1 hour and was still in the sky when I stopped my observation.
Viewed in southeast night sky.

Two objects seen falling in fireball form west to east, turned white hovered and darted to the north. Two objects seen falling from the night sky from west to east almost like meteors, they appeared to have a fire trail behind them while falling. These two objects then slowed from their fall and became bright white lights.
They almost seemed to hover for at least 30 seconds then darted off to the north silently and much faster then any plane could travel.

3 UFO's appeared in the space of 15 seconds. I was strolling the lovely town of Hastings, taking snapshots of the beautiful surroundings, when my friend started screaming. "((obscenity deleted)) IS THAT?!?!" and we saw two huge spacecrafts, clearly from other worlds.
Their buzzing noises and the speed and flashing lights was clearly from another planet. A 'normal' saucer-like spacecraft appeared first, and a second craft appeared. It was purple, and very long, stretching light years perhaps? I was amazed.
My friend pulled out a camera and went to take this photo, and as he took the photo, a third craft appeared right before the sun. We heard noises, like they were having a conversation with each other, in some sort of galactic gathering. The sound was amazing, and then this beam of light was propelled into mountains, like a beam from heaven, as if they were the alien gods, basking in our sweet pristine earth.
Something appeared on the mountains. A face. We couldn't see who it was, but we know that this was something of great importance which people had to know ((NUFORC Note: Hoax.
PD)).

Full Report Text:
I was driving in my work truck, north bound on the by pass road (Hastings, NE) by the over pass next to the waste water treatment facility. The craft was a greyish color, the best description of the shape would be similar to a bus. No wings.
It appeared as I glanced in that direction. (to the east). When I looked back, it was gone.
My estimation is the craft was approximately 200 meters off the ground and within a couple miles. I was shocked, there was another car on the by pass in front of me. I have always wondered if they saw it too.
I know this happened a long time ago, I just never thought about reporting it. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).
