Ohio UFO Sightings in 2008

Full Report Text:

Moving as fast as an airplane with a humming sound around 300 yards away. In the distance the object resembled a saucer that was green with a sliver of red to it. As the object got closer the green started to fade away into a platinum color.

When the object got directly over my bedroom I could make out six red lights on the bottom of it in a . (hexagon) pattern. I could clearly see the object though.

lights rotating above house above clouds - can only been seen when there is cloud cover to reflect lights. I reported this once before. I've again seen the strange rotating light reflecting on the clouds over the house across from me.

Same house as last time. Tonight is a very clear night with almost no cloud cover so I could not see it for long, but I was gazing at Orion while out on having a cigarette and a small patch of thin clouds drifted over the house. For the duration of the cloud cover I saw the same lights.

They look almost like what would be car headlights in fog but they rotated stationary over the house - lights facing outward. No actual craft/vehicle/source can be seen, only the lights reflecting from above the clouds. When the clouds drift away the light cannot be seen at all but when more clouds drift over, it can be seen again continuing the rotation.

This is really started to freak me out. I want to know what this is!! ((NUFORC Note: Advertising lights. PD)).

Dual beams of light (like headlights) reflecting off clouds, rotating in a stationary circular pattern; only visible when cloudy. I went outside for a cigarette and just south of where I was (across the street) I saw lights reflecting above the clouds making a circle pattern in the sky. It was just above the clouds and when the clouds passed it couldn't be seen, returning when the clouds came back over head.

Looks like what could best be described as whitish headlight beams but facing outward at all times as if something was rotating. I continued to watch for about 10 minutes and it didn't move at all from the spot where it originally was (like as if rotating towards something) but stayed circling the same exact spot in the sky. This is my second time seeing something like this, but the first time (about a month or so ago) it was about 15 miles north of here.

Like now, I had stepped out to get a cigarette and it was just circling just above the clouds right next door to the north of my position. I am unsure on duration, as with both instances the phenomenon had already started when I stepped out and was still continuing when I had to go inside. I am a star gazer, so I frequently watch the sky and would definitely notice if this occurred more often.

The object was moving very slowly about 100-150ft off the ground forward and backwards and was diamond shaped with 4 lights on it. Hi I recently called in last night an talked with someone from your organization today about what I saw. First off it was about 10:15-10:25 on November 29, 2008 when I seen this diamond and or saucer shaped black spacecraft.

It had a green light at one side a red one at the immediate opposite and an amber light on the bottom with a amber an red flashing one on what looked like the top. When I first saw it it was headed south really slow and looked like it was gradually lowering. Then when I pulled off the road it started to head north but the lights were still where they were at first, as if it didn’t even turn around.

So I went to my parents house down the road where I was headed anyway but when I got them to come outside it wasn’t in sight from there house and that’s where it ended. But when I saw it moving it was way too slow to be a plane and there was no noise like a helicopter, but way too small to be a blimp. I don’t know why either but I feel so terrified when I start to think about the thing I saw but I get a feeling that it was something threatening .

Thanks for reading my report I hope it helps solve what I seen that night.

A gigantic flying boomerang with a dozen faint white lights on the front edge of it flying north to south at a tremendous speed,no nois I was standing in my back yard looking up at the night sky when I noticed some movement in the northern sky. It looked like a faint white ribbon. As it got closer I could tell that it was several seprate faint white lights shaped like a boomerang with a little bit of a nose on the front of it.

I would estimate at least 12 lights on the front of it. It flew over my head very fast,no noise what so ever. This thing was huge,very eerie.

If a 747 was flying over my head at 100ft,thats how big this thing was. I dont know the altitude of it,but it seemed to be very high in the sky. I could make out the shape of it on the front edge but could se nothing behind it.

As it flew over my head it blocked out the stars, then I could tell it was a gigantic boomerang. It proceeded to fly south and dissapeared in the southern sky.

sepreate lights on a back road country road.lumunous beyond anything manmade.electronical and mechanical (engine)failure.

me and my girlfriend were driving home from dinner and we decided to take a slightly backroad style direction home.as we were coming up towards the crest of the hill. you could begin to see the aura or projection of an oncoming light.

my reaction was that it was just simply an oncoming car.we reached the crest of the hill to find that no car was in plain sight. But in the distance i could see a set of lights near or on the top of another hill.

i once again assumed it was just a house with the lights on, but as we coasted down the hill i noticed that the position of the lights were moving vertically in comparison to us as we made our way down the hill.at this point i had stoppd the car and rolled down the window to look more clearly .what i saw at first was just what appeared to be a disk with a very low intensity orangish light emmiting from the entire craft.

but just as soon as i focused in on it the object began to move diagonaly towards the feild below.as it moved the orange glow slowly faded to white and then the light seperated itself int seven seperate light orbs that pulsed.now from the angle i was at i could not see it all to well now.

so i went to drive the car around the corner but the car had turned itself off. the key was still in the ignition and i attempted to restart it but there was no resonse. even the electronics were unresponsive.

now at this time i looked back up and saw that the object moved over towards my car.not over top of me but close enough.at this time i realized it was not a disk because even though the lights where in a disk shape formation, when it crossed paths with the moon you could see the moon in the center of all the lights.

as the lights began to ascend upwards, the lights slowley turned orange once again.then out of no where my car started.when i looked back up at the object it was a brite violet and it took of.

my radio did not work for weeks after the inccident.when i went home ! every cl ock had said it was 10:52.but both my car and cellphone clock read 22 minutes faster.

i was raccoon hunting in the dark and seen somthing go over top and it let up the woods then it was gone no trace A friend and I were hunting about 11:30 pm and it was pitch black out. we was on about our 10th raccoon and I flashed my light up in the trees and as soon as I did that a huge craft like hovered over us real slow it was real bright, it was like a beam shinning straight down on me. We were just like stones didn’t know what to do or anything.

It just moved slow over us and it looked like it went down to a field passed the woods so we took off running towards it and it was just gone no were in sight we are positive that it wasn’t anything like a plane or a helicopter. I hope this finds your attention. I am now a believer in this and no one can tell me this wasn’t a ufo my friend believes the same.

11/10/08 0:30/ Uniontown Ohio/Shape Round/Duration 3 min/Object was 25 ft in diam.,round and viewed from Uniontown Ohio 11/15/08 Me and my wife seen a round object the color of the sun (red) across the street from our house. It was about a 1000 ft away.

Half of the object was above the tree tops and the other half could be seen showing behind the trees. It then started lowering to the ground,got smaller and smaller until it was a small brite red lite to the side of the trees and disappeared. Believe it or not,the following nite I got up to use the bathroom,at 1:30 AM and the same type object was in the excat spot, but this time it was hoovering about 10 ft above the same trees.

It was the same shape,color and size as the object the nite before. I would estimate the diameter of this object to be about 25 ft. I turned around to wake my wife and when I turned back, the object was gone.

Both sightings were within an hour of each other , but on two different nites. It may also be of enterest that two days ago,an object discribed almost excatly as our sightings were reported seen in Lake County Ohio, about 50 miles North East of here. It was on the Channel 3 News, a search party went out to look but did not find anything.

Radiating, pulsating, fiery object observed in the cincinati night sky! at approximately 6:30 pm on friday november 7 i witnessed as what can only described as an unidentified flyng object. It appeared to be a a huge radiant object in the distant that remained stationary for at least 20-25 minutes, my wife witnessed the object as well and the object was subsequently recorded on video. i could not positively discern the exact shape of this object but if i were to make a reference point, it resembled the vehicular object depicted in the 1st superman movie that brought superman from krypton to earth, i say that not to sound hoaxy but merely as a description.

i reside southern ohio (cincinnati) and the object appeared in the southwestern portion of the horizon. it was a pretty clear nite and this object was clearly no celestial body based on the way it behaved. at times it appeared as giant pulsating ball of light.

i noticed a lot of manmade aviation activity in the proximity of this object. this is clearly visible on the tape i made. i called a friend over the phone who resides not too far and he along with other witnesses observed similar activity.

after about 25 minutes the object simply diminished in the distance to where it was no longer visible. ((NUFORC Note: Probable sighting of Venus. PD)).

I saw a white object with a black side in the air in the morning that dissapeared. It was a some what warm morning.no clouds,clear skies,calm wind.

I was in a bus that was taking a turn around a bend. I was able to notice that there was a bright object in the sky it seemed to be making its own light, as all of the object was lighted evenly.It was a sphere which had a slight black curve on the side.

It also seemed to have a small thing sticking out of it like an antenna. The object was about 3,000ft above the ground and 1 mile away. After about 2 seconds.

The object then dissolved into the sky.It seemed to turn invisible. Like it knew I was watching it.

Pulsing light in South-West Ohio (Clermont County) On Monday, Nov 3rd, 2008, my wife and I were heading east-bound on US32 when we noticed a bright, stationary light due east. The light was about the same intensity of a car's headlamp, but pulsed with a 2 second interval in between pulses. We maintained contact with the light as we exited U32 and continued to watch the light which did not move in over a 2-3 minute period.

At this point, the light began to change color and turn from a whitish color to a red-orange and then disappeared. My wife initially thought it could be a low flying plane or helicopter, but was disproved when we saw a helicopter flying to a local hospital.and seeing planes flying in the area.

While planes and helicopters have strobe-type lights, these where much larger and pulsed very slowly. There also where no "running lights" common in other aircraft.

Triangle craft in clearing at Cuyahoga Valley National Forest Me and 2 of my friends were out driving in the Cuyahoga Valley National Forest, looking for "Helltown", a popular place for teens to hang out at on halloween. We passed through it because we saw a sheriff and headed north on Riverview Road. We then turned west on Snowville Road, but turned around to go back to "Helltown".

Upon turning southbound on Riverview Road, we looked behind us to check for traffic. In the sky, hovering was a black triange, about a couple thousand feet off the ground. It had 4 lights that were a bluish hue, 3 in the corners and one in the middle.

We tried to take pictures with our cell phones, but nothing came out. We turned off the radio and the car for a moment to check for sound, and there was nothing. After a minute or so, we got scared and decided to leave.

Bright Blue Craft Over Laura, Ohio's Night Sky I am reporting this about 25 minutes after the sighting. I saw a very bright blue light (looked a bit like a fireball) speed across my street and it looked as if it "crashed" in the woods across the road. The sky is and was completely dark.

If I had to take a guess, I would say that the object was the size of a small car. It was traveling at a very fast speed. It was fast and close enough that I was expecting to see some sort of explosion or hear some sort of explosion come from the woods, but nothing.

Almost immediately I drove my car through a path in the woods, but I saw nothing. I got a bit creeped out so I didn't give a big investigation! Haha. The bad thing is that I am the only one that saw this object (as far as I know) and it is just another sighting that doesnt provide much hard evidence! - I plan to go out tomorrow morning to see if any evidence can be found.
