New York UFO Sightings in 2006

Full Report Text:

small, glowing spheres over new york city, during the day on new year's eve I was standing on Broadway between 73rd and 74th when an excited, middle-aged woman came up to me asking what was in the sky. I looked up and saw 3 small glowing or metallic spheres. Other people on the street overheard, and looked up as well.

One sphere was stationary, one was moving in a steady circle, and the third was moving diagonally across the sky. The woman stated that she had been watching them as she walked up the street for a couple of blocks. She said she had seen 20 or more at once and they were disappearing up into the sky.

The three I saw seemed to fade up into the sky as well. A few minutes later 2 more appeared and moved across the sky at a steady rate in tandem, before stopping and remaining stationary. These two were then witnessed by a friend of mine who had been in a store.

After the two spheres became stationary, I became uncomfortable and entered the subway station. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

On Christmas Eve we saw a large dark craft glide from one cornfield across a road and into another field. This was on Christmas Eve. We were traveling by car through a rural area - we were surrounded by fields with no streetlights.

We were just approaching a hill when a car came down the hill, facing us. As they came down the hill, that car braked and its taillights illuminated the hill behind them in a reddish glow. In that glow both my father and I saw a craft gliding across the top of the hill from one cornfield into another.

It was dark gray with no lights and massive - it took up the entire road, we could not see the beginning or end of it. It moved more smoothly than anything I have ever seen; cars, planes and ships can move smoothly but this glided almost as if automated. It was like it was on a conveyor belt.

Then the car approaching us stopped braking and its taillights went off and the hill fell into darkness again. Both my father and I were shocked. We are from that area and are well acquainted with tractors, cars, trucks and anything other vehicle in local use and we could not think of anything it could be.

It was just too huge. Furthermore there were cornfields on each side of that hill - there was no reason for any kind of craft to pass at that location. As we drove up and over the hill, I looked into the fields but could see nothing.

everything was pitch black. This probably isn't related but something odd happened the following morning on Christmas. My parents' house is very remote and too set back from the road for anyone to approach on foot.

Yet we discovered HUGE footprints leading from the driveway through the snow around the house. and they just stopped in the middle of the yard. They didn't turn around and they didn't go anywhere else.

The tracks just ended as if whoever made them vanished. It was Christmas and we were obviously busy with other things, but the sight of that craft gliding from one field into another has haunted me ever since. I know it's not a "flying" object as it was on the ground but it was not of this world either.

I'm sure of it.

Yellow streak seen on Buffalo state college I was walking with a friend north on Buffalo State College campus. We were in front of tower 3 about 1/8 mile away. It was a dark cloudy night.

We saw a round yellow streak of light that appeared in the sky. It moved very fast, made a sharp turn and went behind Tower 3. The sighting lasted about 2 seconds.

We called campus police shortly afterwards. ((NUFORC Note: The Geminid Meteor shower peaks on this date. Hence, possible meteor.

PD)).

I saw a trainagle with light that were like red on every angle and one red in the center. It was really dark outside. I saw this triangular thing that looked like a plane.

so I looked at it and it had lights that were like red on every angle. and one red light in the center. I looked at it for a little more than 8 seconds and than it just accelerated at an enourmous amount of speed towards the front of my house.

I went out, and it was gone.

multicolored over Hicksville, NY, made alarms go off and left a cloud of bluish fog I was driving my car back to my house during my lunch break, when i looked up at a stop light. What i saw when i looked up was an object flying around 2000 feet in the air. The crafts looked like a really big explination point (!) but the bottom was attached to the top and much larger.

The larger circular part was leading the entire ship, as if the round part was a control center. It had red white and blue lights all over the bottom of it that had a glow bright enough for me to see it in daylight, and after those 10 to 15 seconds were over the bottom started to dim, then got REALLY bright and then it was gone, it left behind a blueish fog that disappeared fairly quickly. It was so weird and the vibrations made a close by parked car alarm go off.

i wish i'd of had a camera (i've never seen anything UFO like it before has anyone else seen this type or is it just me?) If i'm to be contacted that's fine,,if not, thats fine too.

Large, wide, low-flying, very light object with navigational lights observed over road. My husband was driving by the Uplands Farm Sanctuary in Cold Spring Harbor (NY) on Thursday evening, November 30, 2006 at about 7:30 p.m.

He saw over the road a large object, more wide than long, larger than a jet airplane, shaped like a "V", with navigational lights in green and white. It was flying low and moving very slowly and he said it had to be "lighter than air" in order to achieve the type of movement he observed. He got out of his vehicle and watched for several minutes.

He heard a whirring sound, unlike typical mechanical sounds we are accustomed to. Another car drove by but did not stop. He has felt very sick since that time, with a malaise he cannot specify, and he has an unexplained, fairly deep scratch on his upper back.

((NUFORC Note: We spoke with this witness via telephone, and she sounded quite serious-minded to us. We suspect that she is a very good witness, and reporter of fact. PD)).

Reported on the Early Today Show, channel 13 news, NBC. I didn't see anything but when watching the news one morning (11/29/06 I believe) the forcasters on channel 13 news from New York were talking about getting reports of a bright flash in the sky and was wondering if it had anything to do with the weather. The meterologist said there were no weather patterns to cause that and there were several calls to the station about it.

I watched later and nothing was mentioned agian. They were probably told not to discuss it on the air. Check it out.

Channel 13, Early Today Show, NBC. Bob Kovochic (something like that) and a younger guy doing the weather.

White Flash near Exit 19 Thruway Kingston While driving south on the NY Thruway we observed a sudden flash in the sky to our left at the entry point of exit 19. It was as if somebody had taken a picture from about 500 feet in the air. It was very bright and both myself and my 16 year old son observed it immediately asking each other " Did you see that? " simultaneously.

It did not happen again though we were looking for it through the windows and moonroof. The sky was clear and we were both lucid, having just stopped for coffee. I just filed the report as I had not been on the site for a while and saw a sighting out of Albany on 11/28.

We were returning from a Hockey Tournament in Canada and I just checked the date of our return, finding it was 11/27. I am not exactly certain of the time, I would say between 10pm and 1am.

I was driving home one night at 2:15 am after work with a friend. We were going over the Brooklyn Bridge from Manhattan and about half way over the bridge we saw a flash in the sky at about the 2 o'clock position in the sky facing east. The closest thing I can think of describing this is a flash of lightning.

It was almost like a flash from a camera comming from the middle of the night sky. There were no clouds in te sky, there was no rain or thunder and was'nt hot enough for heat lightning, being that it was alost Thanksgiving. We both saw this and we were both taken back by this.

This did'nt happen again on the drive back to Staten Island that night. We kept looking up in the sky to see if we can see it again. The part of the sky we saw this flash in was not obstucted by apartment buildings or any other structures.

This was a clear view off the bridge facing south east. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate. PD)) ((ADDENDUM FROM SOURCE)) Hi.

Round Green Light near La Guardia Driving south on the Van Wyck Expressway between Northern blvd and the Long Island Expressway. a round shaped Craft with a light green light appeared streaked through the sky and dissapeared.

Full Report Text:

Odd and fast, unlike any aircraft I have seen in this area. Im awake, watching TV as usual, because of course I can never sleep, and I have a very large picure window in my living room. I happen to see something that would resemble an airplane, except for the speed and the color of the lights.

The lights were amberish and the speed that this object flew across the sky was faster than any airplane that I have seen. I often to see airplanes in the same area, but they are more distant and distinctly airplanes. This seemed almost close, and the speed of it was quite fast.

It went into the western sky, towards what I would guess the Rome area. It was quite odd, enough to where I got up to see what it was and where it was heading to.

Bluish White Sphere slightly sporadic in movement I went out to smoke. same as i always do and as i have done in past reports. this time i went to the back of my truck which was parked in my driveway because it blocks out some light so I can see the stars better.

I turned west to face my house and looked up. I saw something moving very slowly and it was fairly bright in the North West sky. I tried to focus on it and see if I could see lights thinking it was a plane.

but all I saw was a bluish white glow. and it was moving rather oddly. it changed its path, moving slightly up and down and also in a circular way.

This time i wasted no time getting my mom who came ready with the binoculars. she also commented on it's weird movement. it began heading over a tree which was directly in front of me to the north.

I saw a plane come into view just under the object. and it kind of curved it's path a little upward as if to avoid the plane's space. once passed it continued a little more odd movement then began to dim then finally disappear.

It was too slow to be a shooting star and left no trail. It could have been an asteroid but it looked to close in the sky from other asteroids i have observed. And coincidentally happened only hours on the same day of something else I saw in the sky in daylight that was strange and also had reported.

I went outside to smoke a cigarette and look at the sky as I always do. It had been raining earlier and it was now clear sunny and windy. I was in the driveway by my front door looking up toward the south west when i spotted what I thought was just a white Gull way up in the sky.

It looked to be just floating on the air then it made a small circle and started moving in an unwavering line to the north east. It then looked to me like a small white sphere. That's when I realized it definitely wasn't a bird.

And it definitely wasn't a plane. There was a plane flying parallel to it heading passesd it and it in no way looked like the plane. nor did it stray from it's path when the plane had passed it.

I knocked on my door to get my mom's attention still not taking my eyes off it. I pointed it out to her. She got went to get me the binoculars but when she got back it had dissapeared behind a small wispy sloud and didn't come back out on the other side.
