New Jersey UFO Sightings in 2006

Full Report Text:

flashing lights changing directions and hovering and changing colors Facing due east, one set of red lights moved northeast while one set of white lights moved southwest. Both sets of lights changed cadence several times and reversed colors (the red lights became white and the white lights became red). This same pattern continued for approximately 40 minutes with periods of hovering.

A third white, bright light streaked somewhat slowly in a southwest direction. This third object started in the middle of the other two objects and then appeared to burn out or disappear as it approached the treetops. It looked like a shooting star but burned much brighter, travelling far slower and over a shorter distance than a typical shooting star.

No sounds were audible at all unlike helicopters and airplanes which emit a distinct sound as they pass by. My wife witnessed the same experiences at the same time. We tried to videotape the event but the camera lost power right after I turned it on and attempted to zoom the lens.

The battery was half-full when I turned it on.

If Orion had a foot, there is a "star"-like object making moves aerodynamically impossible. Looking at Orion's belt towards the Eastern night sky, and imagining if Orion had a foot, for the last two nights at the spot where Orion's foot would be I've seen a bright star moving in impossible moves. Backwards, forwards, sideways, stationary, shooting towards a spot, stopping, then moving all around and then actually seeming to twirl in a circle! I saw it last night at the same spot and it's still there now! I positioned myself in a stationary spot against a wall to make sure my body movements were not causing what could give the "illusion" of it moving and it still was doing all the above stated manuevers.

I called two other people and they both confirmed what I was seeing. Then another person joined one of my other witnesses outside while we were talking on the phone and they said they saw this object doing what we both were seeing simultaneously as we talked. I don't care if anyone believes this as I and three other people saw it too.

((NUFORC Note: Sirius is below, and to the left, of the bottom of the constellation, Orion. PD)).

it was shape shifting or sevral hundred objects where moving in complete sycronized rythm but it was large who could have missed this. I was outside and my uncle told me to look up in the sky and when i did i noticed what seemed to be a formation of objects or one object shape shifting i dont know but it seemed to be atleast 30 thousand feet or more. I live in between four major airports and always see planes it was not a formation of planes becaused there seemed to be atleast onehundred objects or more it was dark outside and they seemed to have a faint glow but not too luminious.

The light was a dimmed white ,grey and black and seemed to pulsate. The way it was moving i could not tell if it was one object or fleets of objects but it was syncronious in movement .It was going from northwst to southest.

It flew not to far from a plane in the sky and the plane was high up. Another guy came up the street and observed it too i asked him what he thought it was he said the object appeared to be one object but large and kinda cloaking in and out like rippling water effect . I still think it might have been several objects because they shifted place simontaneiously.

my uncle agreed it was so hard to say what it was but i know what it wasnt and it did not look like anything i have seen before.There was no sound it could have been a mile in legnth because it took up atleast a quater of the sky i could see from my view.It also had a dark shaded cloud that seemed to ride with this event the cloud was much larger in size .

it moved fast but not faster than the planes up there where it was at . It dissappeared out of my sight others had to see this there is no way on earth that alot of people did not see this. Im not soo surprised of what i saw but how could no one else see this it was huge event ether way u look at it.

It was very similar to the ones i saw on a mexican news report. These where traveling in somewhat of a v shape could have been almost seen as a large flock of geese but these where no geese. im sure others on my block saw it but not every one feels comfortable talking about stuff like this i understand.

i am a little ! worried about something of that size and nature was not on the evening news for real.

Five lights in the night sky. Each light flickered a bit before it fully turned on. Maybe one large Aircraft I was about 10 years old and my father was coming home from a business trip.

He had walked in the door and forgot his briefcase in his trunk he had asked me to go outside and get his briefcase for him excited to see my father I ran out the door and went to the trunk of his car. I opened his trunk and grabbed his briefcase and at the exact moment this happened I saw something appear out of the corner of my eye. I saw and watched in disbelief as three lights turned on in the night sky and stayed floating there in the same exact fixed spot.

By the time the third light had turned on I was running back inside as fast as I could because my gut told me exactly what it was because I had never seen anything do that before even as a little boy who owned a telescope and frequently watched the stars at night with my father and I don’t neighbor. I ran back inside in tears I was so scared and all I could otter out of my mouth was that they were here. We all went back outs! ide as a family and by the time they had calmed me down and I had dragged them back outside the entire neighborhood was basically outside watching what was now five lights in a perfect horizontal formation above the tree line to the south end of my parents neighborhood.

The lights stayed in the exact same spot hovering there is more and more helicopters surrounded them. This went on for about an hour and then the lights turned on access information from horizontal to perpendicular. The lights then stayed like that for a while.

About an hour after that the lights returned to their original horizontal formation and then turned off in the exact same order that they appeared in. My father was also friends with a federal air marshal that lived up the street from us. He had been on multiple deployments in his life and had been a part of the United States Navy and Army before becoming a federal Air Marshal.

Years later my father told me that he had alluded to the fact that they we! re UFOs but could not say. The air marshals final statement to my fat er was that they were just experimental military grade flares. Even as a young boy I knew that flares did not do that.

LARGE BRIGHT OBJECT HUNTERDON COUNTY NJ At about 2:30 AM on 12/10/07, I saw an incredibly bright object in the southwestern sky near the border of Hunterdon County NJ and Bucks County PA. It was larger than a commercial airliner, and through binoculars it appeared to be a long, oval shape. The light emitting from it was extremely bright, yellowish white, no other colors observed.

It was stationery, maybe 3 miles up. It appeared to be between 5 and 10 miles distance from my location in Pittstown, NJ. It remained there for approximately 10 minutes.

I stopped viewing for about 2 minutes. When I returned, I thought it was gone, but it had changed position dramatically. It was now about 200 to 300 feet above the distant tree line, and was more to the north east.

I continued to observe for perhaps 15 minutes then, the object began a slow descent, and began traveling in a northwesterly direction. It was still about 200 feet up, was following the tree line, and the brightness of the light had dimmed. I continued to observe until it was no longer visible.

This object, in my opinion, was not an airplane or helicopter because of the size, shape and dazzling brightness, nor was it a celestial body because of it’s changing and deliberate course. ((NUFORC Note: We assume that the source of the report intended to indicate a date in 2006. We will correspond with her, in order to verify the date of the event.

PD)).

What we saw was a hovering silent disc shaped craft with many lights emitting to the ground My daughter and I were watching tv when bright lights shining though the window caught our attention. It was a very clear night with a full or almost full moon. What we saw was a hovering but silent craft with lights around the entire perimeter of it.

These lights seemed to be a color somewhere between yellow and orange, possibly even changing slightly from one moment to the next. Lights also beamed down to the ground like gigantic flashlights which is what got our attention in the first place. The craft left as suddenly as it appeared with great speed.

This experience was frightening to my daughter and myself and is what led me to come across this web site. The people of New Jersey and elsewhere are seeing something and I think it's time we all find out just what it is.

We were out stargazing on a very clear night after fixing a new telescope that had never been used. After about an hour or so of watching the skies we layed down to just watch for a while. I was staring at a "constellation" or what I thought to be a constellation for about 5+ min.

It was 4 stars almost dipper like when one of the stars took off from the constellation at a steady speed and course across the sky to the north. We watched it by eye and telescope for roughly 5 min (the approximate time it took to cross the sky to its end point) at which point it literally disappeared. It was the same size of, color of, and shape of the stars.

White, tiny and sphere, for lack of better term. After freaking out about this for about 10 min. we went back to watching the skies, and from another constellation in the same are but just a little west of the first one, another star took off.

Same speed, same shape. They were both very high in the sky, too high to be a plane and after research there were non estimated sattelite crossings that day. They held no tails and were in the sky too long to have been meteors or the like.

I have seen a few things also before this that I was some what skeptical about but this was strange. We were not drinking. we dont do drugs.

I am in the United States Military and she is a RMA. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)).

UFO over traffic on I-78 in New Jersey A bright saucer appeared about 100 yards above construction traffic on I-78. The light was white and may have been blinking. It stood fixed in the air for about five seconds, then accelerated extremely fast straight up into the air, out of sight within one or two seconds.

Because there were hundreds of cars stopped in traffic in the vicinity, there should be multiple witnesses of this occurrence. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate. PD)).

Continual blinking rows of lights on opposite sides of sky. Saw strange lights in the sky last night around 7:40 PM EST. My boyfriend points out rows of reddish/orange lights in the sky.

3 in a row on one side and 4 in a row on other side of sky. The angled rows were opposite of each other. They would come on 1 at a time and then each light in the row would come one, then go out.

One side of the sky, then the next. They would go out, then one side would light up, then the other side, then off. It was freaky.

They were angled at like 45 degrees. I don't know what it was. It was not a plane.

It was like each side was communicating with the other. Could not see an object which was producing the lights. Was high up in sky and appeared to be slowly moving east.

This continued for abut 10 minutes. One side and then the next. Off for 10 seconds, then one side and then the next.

Multicolored fiberoptic looking sphere. The object first caught my attention, because the sky was so clear, you could see everything.The object seen first looked like an extroardnarily bright star, just larger.

After paying closer attention to it, we realized these beautiful colors all over the object. I then retrieved my binoculars for a closer look and what we saw was just amazing, and so vivid. There was no haze, no aura, and it just remained in the same spot for about a half hour until it slowly(at least slow to the naked eye) began moving south.

Also to clarify the location, it was east of where we were and we were looking to about a 45 degree angle. The sphere then paused again and seemed to remain in its new location, for the remainder of the sighting. I had viewed it through the telescope also which made it that much more clear, only to reveal a spherical shape just completely covered in this constant changing, almost electrical light.

It was blue,purple,red,yellow, green, and it just kept cycling through these colors over and over again. To be more precise on the shape, it looked exactly like the big Epcot center ball(with the same outer texture or paneling,whatever) in Disney World, just bigger and luminescent. I also found it pretty peculiar that at no time during this sighting was there even a trace of any other aircraft in the sky, and the air traffic is usually constant.

I saw a disc shaped object flying across the sky. I saw a disc-shaped object that appeared to be dark-colored or shadowed on the bottom. It appeared much smaller than a plane or a helicopter.

It was much larger than a bird. It appeared to be wobbling across the sky, rather than moving smoothly. It appeared in the north and proceeded south until out of view.

All that could be seen was the bottom of the object.

Full Report Text:

A plane shaped object that was silver with a yelow emblum and flying low to the ground. It was a plane like object. It was shaped like an oragami bird.

The back of the "plane" had a tale that bent down and the wings bent down and out as well. The front was like a normal plane but more curved than pointed. It was silver and had a yellow emblum in the bottom corner in the back of the plane.

The emblum did not have words it was more of a scribbling. It had no windows. It was about 100ft off the ground and it was flying at that level for a long time.

There are no close It did not go higher. I am not sure of the length or height of the plane but it was very close to the ground so what i saw was big. ((NUFORC Note: Student report.

Very Unusual White Lighted Triangle Zig-zaging Over Barnegat Bay around Midnight 9.22.06 On Friday morning, September 22, 2006, while walking from my car to my front door, I noticed an unusual silent non-blinking white light about the size of an average star moving smoothly at very high altitude across the western sky about 50 degrees above the horizon of Barnegat Bay.

Looking up and focusing closely, I realized it was actually three steady non-strobing white lights in a narrow triangular arrangement and seemed to be a single object seen from an angle. The sky was clear and cloudless with a multitude of visible stars. Two airplanes with normal blinking lights could be seen traveling south at different normal altitudes in the distant south-west sky.

The unusual white light was moving three to four times faster than a conventional aircraft and it was its unusual speed which first caught my attention. The light then suddenly accelerated moving twice as fast in an upward arc in an "S" shaped manoeuvre as it shifted direction towards the east and south, nearly directly above my head and it headed over the ocean, then it looped again, reversed direction and accelerated towards the south-west, climbing in the sky until it vanished from sight. The entire sighting probably lasted less than two minutes as it traveled from north to south, then east, then towards the south-west, although the extraordinary nature of the event made it seem much longer in duration.

It was not a conventional aircraft or a meteor or bolide. It was unlike anything I have ever seen before and I pay attention to the sky. The velocity of its acceleration, its silence, and the graceful ease with which it moved combined with its bizarre trajectory across the sky brought me to immediate full attention and I felt utterly amazed.

After it vanished I spent several minutes studying the visible sky above the barrier island where I live, then I went in my house and, very excited, I phoned a friend advising him to go outside and look around. I then grabbed binoculars, went back outdoors and spent several minutes scanning ! the warm , clear, windless sky. The unusual light had vanished and there were no airplanes to be seen either.

My friend called back and reported that he had seen nothing unusual from his wooded area 20 miles north of me. I then drew a sketch of the strange light and its bizarre double-loop trajectory and e-mailed it to him. For the record, I am a non-fiction writer with a college degree in journalism and I am outdoor photographer.

Shimming object in the sky between Popcorn Park Zoo and Garden State Parkway NJ While driving from Popcorn Park Zoo I was approx, between the streets of Humane Way and Dover Rd Forked River NJ. I was driving at the speed of 45 mph the weather was clear and sunny with one or two very small low clouds in the sky; temperature was approx. 70 degrees.

As I was heading east towards the Garden State Parkway what caught my attention was a very bright shimmering light it was far away in the sky and I would say it would be approx. 10:00 angle. I did not hear any sound, I can describe it as a long cigar shaped elongated and it appeared to be hovering.

The object was definitely a solid I didn’t see anything else on the object except for it was a bright shimmering light. I stared at it for approx. 7 seconds then I blinked my eye and it was gone, I have no idea what direction it took or if it had a direction, there was no trail.

I surveyed the sky for the object and it was not seen again. “It was a very clear day” On Lacey Rd the road is a two lane road East to West with low trees very much of an open area. I called my husband at that moment to tell him what I have seen.

I would have thought that I would seen it an again or even an object if it was a plane or a blimp but it was not seen again. Now I can tell you that Robert J. Miller Air Park runway is directly across from was I saw the object far east possibly near the Garden State Parkway.

I understand that planes airlines reflect the sun light but not like this. This shimmered while I was driving then disappeared. I would like to add that I could not explain the sighting I’m just saying it was definitely strange nothing like I saw before.

Where we live we have airlines flying over us to Newark Liberty which I would say the flight pattern and I see airlines all day and yes they reflect the sunlight but not for 7 sec’s while I was driving and the plane would fly at the least 200 mph or more I would like to know if any one saw something strange also in this area.

3 pankake looking round ufos floating and circling as they made their way slowly across sky 3 round objects slowly floating, turning in sky, i would say they were balloons but i never saw balloons stay at same level, instead of constantly in the same level, like a flying saucer trying to master the gravity, not a windy day or anything and all three in different directions. nobody else seemed to notice though it was a clear day at around 6:20 pm, cloudy but clear blue sky. one far in distance, two others closer to me, a plane passed, deffinately not as high as plane.

moving rather slowly but turning. brown or gray in color. they definately had dimesions like a thick pankake, round and flat on top.

wish i was at home and had a camera and not at work.

Bright star like UFO over North Bergen NJ It was about 3 20 in the afteroon my back yard in my stairing at the sky watching the planes fly by, When I notice a star flashing which caught my attention. Then I notice that it was moving in a circular motion slowly but obviouse . From afar it seem like a helicopter but it was to far up in the sky for it to be a helicopter.

It keep moving west of Hudson county with is just across from Manhattan New York. I stood up and my wife said that she was also seeing another star like object which was also fashing , I saw the second one she was taking about and also notice that there was a 3rd. All of them align in a triangular formation.

I final notice the reason for the flashing of these object it was the reflection of the sun that was hitting these UFOs. ( I noticed this BC of the planes that were pasting by these objects and how they would also shine BC of the Sun) The object kept moving West and at one time on of them just shined with a burst of bright fire and disapeared . the last 2 continued to move West and final disapeared.
