Loud boom heard, lights seen across Arizona Published on Dec 10, 2013 KGUN 9 is searching for the cause of a large green light and loud boom hundreds have reported seeing. Speculation of course at this time without knowing it's point of origin and trajectory but it is very possible that this was a Geminid meteor.

Trying to spot UFOs by the reservoir was such a popular nighttime activity that the sky watchers' cars backed up the roads in the vicinity. "Scientists are still seeking answers to the 1966 event, and by the end of the year there reportedly may be a scientific explanation to the sightings," it was reported. A non-profit group of researchers from Stanhope, under the name of Vestigia Inc., was gearing up to test their hypothesis that seismic pressure on quartz-bearing rock was responsible for the mysterious light configurations. Robert Jones, a Byram Township computer analyst who founded Vestigia Inc., believed there was a common explanation for the UFOs. Jones had also been exploring strange lighting in Long Valley for two years. The reported sightings at Wanaque and Long Valley almost always seem to be of soft, glowing lights close to the ground, Jones noted. According to his hypothesis, seismic pressure on the crystalline rock surfaces gives off lightning. Jones believed the pressure around the Wanaque Reservoir might have been caused by the nearby Ramapo Fault. A number of mild tremors occurred along the fault line over the years. With permission from the North Jersey District Water Supply Commission, the researchers intended to use Geiger counters, infrared detectors, magnetometers, and surveying equipment in their work at the reservoir. In 1977, Vestigia Inc. had helped the U.S. Navy investigate the mysterious sonic booms heard along the New Jersey coast. The noises were never fully explained, it was reported. It was Jan. 11, 1966 at about 6:30 p.m. when residents, municipal officials, and police in North Jersey glanced up and saw strange lights in the sky. At that time, the Pompton Lakes Police Department handled dispatching duty for many of the local towns. "Listen," went a typical call, "this sounds crazy, but I saw something in the sky. Do you know what it is?" The calls came from Wanaque, Ringwood, West Milford, Butler, and Wayne. There were even some from the Paterson and Totowa area. The astounded callers were looking for an explanation, but police could not understand the white oval hovering in the sky. The UFO was described as a white and garishly bright disk 2 feet in diameter. To observers, the odd movements of the mysterious visitor were enthralling. Some felt as if it was toying with police, citizens, and borough officials by performing dives almost into the reservoir. "At times it appeared as if it were looking down upon the spectators from a silent stationary position high in the heavens and by making neat right angles as if it were using the sky as a chalkboard," one reporter wrote.

www.nbc-2.com/story/24352066/ufos-spotted-in-cape-coral#.UsiJ5PsQO0r UFOs spotted in Cape Coral, Florida?Posted: Jan 02, 2014 By Alex de Armas, Reporter CAPE CORAL, FL - From Cape Coral to California, people across the country are reporting orange-reddish lights in the night sky. They say they look like fireballs. It was a normal Sunday night for the Hoffman family in Cape Coral until they spotted something unusual in the night sky. "A big red-orange light and behind that one was another one, and then right behind that one was another one," said Roxane Hoffman. Hoffman says she saw something similar to what several people in California say they saw on New Year's Eve. "Like a reddish-orange, almost like a fireball but you didn't see any flames," Hoffman said. She says the lights came from the north -- neither she nor her mother-in-law heard a thing. "They moved real slow. Just like they are following each other like two people following each other. It was weird," said Joyce Sanders, Cape Coral. They say the lights then got behind a large cloud and disappeared. We discovered the National UFO Reporting Center got up to 200 calls between News Year's Eve and January 1 -- all reporting orange-reddish lights in the sky. "Clearly the reports that have come in here in the past 40 hours have virtually nothing to do with fireworks," said Peter Davenport, the Director of the National UFO Reporting Center. Davenport says in the past 19 months he's received over 5,000 similar calls. "They seem to defy any similarity to terrestrial aircrafts we just don't know what they are," Davenport said. Davenport says a small percentage of these cases can be Chinese lanterns or hot air balloons -- but he isn't convinced they all are. "At least we feel like we're not seeing things, you know, and it's been seen somewhere else," Hoffman said. Our meteorologists say they don't believe weather nor anything in space caused the lights in our area.

MUFON Case of the Month - Case# 49531
Grand Island, New York. July 5, 2013. 6:30pm EDT An amateur astronomer, who has his master’s degree in electrical engineering, observed an incredibly bright light appear to the northeast of his position. His wife, who also witnessed the event, went to grab her husband's binoculars. With the binoculars the husband was able to clearly make out a grayish rectangular domino-shaped object that had an incredibly bright bank of white lights on its side. The power of these lights was like nothing he had ever seen before. The object dipped downwards and the engineer/astronomer was able to see that on top of the object was an upside down saucer-shaped glowing red circle. The witness dashed inside to get his telescope. He returned just in time to see the object turn towards the north and take off at an incredible speed. Within three seconds it was gone. A drawing of the object was provided by the witness and is shown below. Here is the sighting in his own words: "I was relaxing in my backyard with my family at 6:30 pm when my wife observed a incredibly bright light to the northeast appear. I took a quick glance and wrote it off as the waning sunlight bouncing off of a civilian aircraft which I have seen many times. Within 20 seconds I knew this was not that as the light remained stationary. I told my wife to grab my binocs so I could keep the object in sight. The object was roughly above the Niagara River by Niagara Falls but at an elevation of 10-15,000 feet. When she came back I could clearly make out a grayish rectangular, sideways domino shape that had an incredibly bright white bank of light on its side. The power of these lights was nothing I have ever seen in my life. The object moved down a few hundred feet then west a few hundred feet and then shot up a few hundred feet and then just hovered for a couple minutes. It then dipped downwards and I could see on the top was an upside down saucer shaped glowing red circle. At this point my adrenaline kicked in and I dashed into the house to try and get my 12" dobsonian dragged outside to get a closer look. As I swiveled the dob to the target my wife who had the binocs said its leaving. I witnessed the object turn towards the north and take off at incredible speed to infinity. Within 3 seconds it was gone. I am a seasoned amateur astronomer with 30 years of experience and I know the location of Venus and am familiar with most civilian and military aircraft. This was none of those." mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?shva=1 - inbox/143c1ae9fc79075a

A 12 inch diameter dobsonian is a fair sized scope (considered fairly large for amateurs). I'm sure he made out the detail with no problems.

ufodigest.com/article/raleigh-nc-0216February 16, 2014 RALEIGH,N.C./ DOES RARE DAYTIME UFO PHOTO SHOW FOUR UFOS?By Dirk Vander Ploeg Publisher's Note: I was going through my email this morning and came across one from my editor Robert D. Morningstar. In it he mentioned a NUFORC (National UFO Reporting Center) witness report that stated that the witness had seen four objects in the skies over Raleigh NC: Enjoy Dirk I saw four disks in the clear sky. I took a very clear photo of what I witnessed. I was on the 10th floor of a tall office building when I walked out on the balcony to look at some unusual clouds. I was on an interview and was immediately called back in, but not before I could take a picture. I didn't look at the picture until later that day when I remembered how strange it was. I looked at it closely and DID NOT alter it at all. I showed a few friends and family members and the feedback was all the same. Nobody could explain it at all! I'm completely baffled and really would like some answers to this strange sighting. The objects looked like disks with a hole in the center. One was extremely large. (Maybe the size of a Walmart store). The other three around it were much smaller but in a triangular formation and slightly above the larger one.

So what's your opinion of it, dude? It's not a cloud formation. Is it real or a hoax? The three midsized ones sort of resemble lenticular clouds when looked at closely. It would be nice to know the location where the image was taken. That would help with the possibility (or unlikelihood) of (lens) clouds. When zoomed in (ctrl +) there appears to be three more below the largest one making seven total (sort of a unique formation ). There's also a small purple looking cloud(?) :-/to the right of the large one when closely looked at. It looks to me like barometric or ambient pressure is falling causing the downward descent of some of it's "material" (condensation ?)? Just a guess. I didn't study meteorology enough. I just chase tornadoes sometimes. Either that or it's a flying object leaking material or some type of ejecta. It looks like the largest one has a purple haze above it possibly caused by the same (downward descent)? Or is it reflection/refraction of Earth's reflection causing the shadowy effect ? Something "else"? I don't know. If not a hoax it's worth looking closely at. What do you (anyone) think it is ?

www.pressherald.com/news/In_Maine__we_are_not_alone__UFO_trackers_say_.htmlIn Maine, we are not alone, UFO trackers say Maine apparently has one of the highest per-capita rates of UFO sightings in the country.By Matt Byrne mbyrne@pressherald.com Staff Writer Two "aliens" pose during a UFO Festival in Roswell, New Mexico, in 2007. According to a group of UFO enthusiasts, Maine ranks near the top nationally for sightings of glowing orbs, mystery craft and other phenomena in the skies. 2007 File Photo/The Associated Press Maine is known for many things – lobster, blueberries, scenic vacations. But UFO sightings? According to a group of UFO enthusiasts, the Pine Tree State ranks near the top nationally for sightings of glowing orbs, mystery craft and other phenomena in the skies. Data from the National UFO Reporting Center puts Maine fourth for sightings per capita, behind only Washington, Montana and Vermont. Indeed, reports of nearly 700 sightings in the past 60 years are rife with tales of the mysterious and the unexplainable. In July 2012 near Greene, it was a diamond-shaped craft darting through the sky. There were the three “fire-orange” lights circling a fourth light, reported in August 1995 above Brunswick. Others are more cryptic, like spooky, unfinished haiku: “Silent and unknown,” reads the entirety of one report from 2005 in Oakland. Before anyone retreats to their bunker to don a tinfoil hat, it’s best to recognize that the data is far from scientific. First, there is the methodology. People who report sightings to the Mutual UFO Network are a self-selecting group. And there undoubtedly are “sightings” that go unreported, making the compilation incomplete. Maybe Mainers are just more likely to talk about their close encounters. WATCH VIDEOS & CONTINUE READING: www.pressherald.com/news/In_Maine__we_are_not_alone__UFO_trackers_say_.html

THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S STORY THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S STORY An experienced photographer was driving in a remote area near Nashville, Tennessee on the night of July 14, 1989. He saw a light behind the trees on top of a mountain several miles away at about 9:00 PM. He stopped his car, opened the trunk, picked up two cameras, a Canon AE-1 and a Canon T-90, that had previously been loaded with film. He started walking toward the bright light. The light came over the mountain several miles away and he started taking pictures with the cameras. He noticed a coronal discharge from around the perimeter of the object. It appeared to be materializing and coming into his vision. The bright light continued moving toward him. He aimed the camera at the light and started taking photos. His first photo was taken about 30 degrees above the horizon. When the object stopped he was shooting at about 50 degree up with the object still about four to six miles away. The photographer states, "I had a feeling that the craft was behind the mountain waiting for me and when it appeared it felt like I was in another world, the sounds were far, far away." He looked at the object but could not see any definition, the light was far too bright and too far away. When he looked through the lens the craft was sharp and vivid. The craft was visible for more than five minutes, but less than ten. It seemed like forever. He changed the lens package from the T-90 to the AE-1 camera and continued shooting using all his film. He felt he was not in control of what was happening. He remembers constantly pushing the buttons on the back of the T-90, each time he made a change it sharpened the image. The T-90 Canon with his lens package cost $3,400.00 It has four computer chips and at the time was one of the most professional cameras you could buy when purchased in 1985." There were other witnesses, but they have been reluctant to come forward. They also were taking pictures, but the field around the craft interfered with the film as the craft moved away. They did not have high magnification lens so there was not enough definition to make the craft identifiable. The photographer has had a recent heart attack and an auto accident and does not want his name revealed. The Canon T-9- was set up with a spacer, two 2-2 X multipliers and 500 mm mirror lens with five filters. The lens package was 2000 mm plus. The speed of the film using the film push process is close to 3000. The camera was set up to take scenery at a distance. The computerized camera with computer chips was set to open the aperture as wide as possible. Commander Graham Bethune. was told by Bill Sherwood of Kodak that the object photographed with this package used on the camera was about five miles distant and would be 100 feet in diameter.ASA Kodak 400 or above film was used. Push processing was ordered when developing the film. MORE PICTURES & CONTINUE READING: www.nationalufocenter.com/features/bethune.htm

Those would be some truly incredible photos if they are really pictures of a UFO. Some people claim that it's not one...at least not a real one that flies. They say that it is an artificially lighted "UFO" suspended from the ceiling of a disco. That's the problem with photos and videos nowadays. There have been so many hoaxes perpetrated that you always have to wonder "what if?" What if they are fakes? What if they are hoaxes? Nothing can be taken at face value anymore.

This is my avator. I always believed the high ranking officer who brought this story out into the open. he said the photographer did not want to be known . Maybe this officer did not exist. I wish I had my old videos of it from the tv program sightings. This officer was on this program one night. So strange. I can believe it as it is close to what I witnessed on the ground . with the lights and all that beam and dark shadowed dwellings. He was a Naval officer. My avatar photo is not among these here. It was told there were other witnesses who would not come forward that lived at this location.

I know you got it from a website that had it grouped together with the other Nashville photos but It looks totally different from all the other ones. The one in your photo looks more realistic to me. I'm not sure where that photo came from.

sky the second link shows five of the six photos. If you look at one and two you see the tiny red dots in a circle going around the craft. Then look at my photo of my ufo which is number five, it has the same red dots as one and two photo.

The object was witnessed by a UFO researcher who captured the strange object in a 30 second video. "This amazing video was caught as a UFO researcher was watching some live cams. At 18 seconds into the video you will see this UFO pass over the buildings and pass in front it. The UFO is as wide as the antenna on top of the building, which is at least 3-4 cars in length. Fantastic capture by Orlando Bosca of Youtube." Reported UFO sightings Daily. Sightings of a UFO have always brought curiosity among the public, experts study them and try figuring out what exactly they are and from where it comes. In another sighting in the UK, a woman revealed that she spotted a flying object hovering over her home island of Guernsey on 23 March. Denise Poole, 52, describing the object as a flying saucer-shaped, confirmed that the flying object appeared as a red line. She spotted the saucer shaped object with a live weather webcam. The woman explained that the bright huge object moved across the screen and suddenly disappeared, but reappeared again after a short while. "There was this thing hovering in the sky. It looked as if it was spinning. I thought I was seeing things. Every now and again it went away and then came back again. I thought 'crumbs nobody will believe me' so I took a few pictures on my phone," Daily Star quoted her as saying.

HUSBAND AND WIFE SILVER DISC ENCOUNTER IN ARIZONAPosted on July 6, 2014 by PFEIFER 6-29-14 TORTILLA FLAT ARIZONA My wife and I were driving on the Apache Trail road towards Tortilla Flat. A couple of miles before reaching the saloon at Tortilla Flat, we noticed a silver disc in the sky on our passenger side. My wife was taking pictures the whole way with her phone (sitting in the passenger seat), so she already had the camera ready to go. We literally took dozens of pictures on our trip, so I not only have this picture but pictures leading up to it and afterword if they need to be provided in the future as proof. The object was hovering in place, and then appeared to start moving. Our view was obscured for a split moment after the sighting, and when we could see again, it was no longer there. The disc was highly reflectant, bright silver ,like a bare aluminum can, with no lights other than the light reflecting from the sun, which was significant. It had a very large dome in the top center of the craft. We never saw the bottom half of the craft, so the best description I can give is that it was slightly tilted downward so we could see the top part, not the bottom. Almost as if the craft was banking a turn, although it didn’t appear to be moving in a curved line. It was too far away to see a great amount of detail, such as windows or panels, but it was close enough that it was right in line with the closest rock formation in the distance. I’d estimate it to be about a half a mile from our vehicle. We kept driving and enjoyed the rest of our evening. We saw the craft at about 4 pm, and continued on our way to Tortilla Flat and Canyon Lake and a bit further until the dirt road turns into a single lane road, where we turned around. On our way back, which was roughly at 5:30, we had just passed Tortilla Flat, coming back on our way home, in roughly the same place as before, and I witnessed what I’d assume to be the same craft about two thumb-widths to the right of the sun, if your hand is a foot from your face. It seemed to almost be trying to hide in the blinding light of the sun, but was clearly visible to me as the sun was heavily reflecting from it’s shiny surface. The look of the surface of the craft, including its reflectant, shiny metal is why I believe each of the two sightings were of the same craft. The second sighting was a bit humorous to me, as it appeared literally a second or two after I realized where we were on the trail. I remember thinking to myself, I wonder if we’ll see it again, and then there it was right in front of my view. CONTINUE READING: worldufophotosandnews.org/?p=7556

ufodigest.com/article/ufo-spheres-0623July 13, 2014 THE UFO SPHERES OF BROOME COUNTY, NEW YORKBy Cheryl Costa For nearly forty years folks in Broome County have been seeing UFO Spheres. It was early July 1976 in Endicott, New York, nine-year-old Sally and her friend Abby were riding with Sally’s father down an old country Road heading to a fast food joint for an evening treat. All of a sudden Sally’s dad was all excited as he pulled the car off the country road and pointed saying, “look over there!, at the big house on the hill.” The three of them got out of the car and Sally’s dad pointed at a large two-story farmhouse. Just above the left hand side of the house was a colorful UFO sphere hovering up 30 feet above the top story. Sally tells us that the three of them watched as the colorful sphere scanned a bluish white beam of light back and forth over the upper stories bedroom windows. As the beam swept back and forth there was a slight humming sound. When the beam of light suddenly went out, Sally says that the sphere seemed to sway a bit backwards away from the house then took off at tremendous speed and vanished. Sally tells us that the colorful sphere was perhaps the size of three large cars put together. She states that there wasn’t one single place on the sphere that wasn’t glowing. The colorful lights on the craft were all around it. She says, “It sort of looked like a big disco sphere, it was actually quite beautiful.” Sally tells us that since that day all three of them have believed in extraterrestrial life. She also says, “That when she and her father told other people what they saw, they were laughed at and nobody believed them.” But what Sally, Abbey and Sally’s dad saw wasn’t an isolated incident. Perhaps these disco colored UFO spheres are making regular visits to Broome County. Case in point, it was August of 2013, it was about twilight; Ron was out in his lawn looking at the night sky. He explains that it was a crystal clear night with no airplanes in the area. Suddenly a large bright sphere floated in from the north. At first he thought it might be a conventional aircraft except that this sphere shaped thing was silent and full of colorful lights. Ron observed that the sphere stopped and hovered for a few moments. He says, that he thought in his mind, “There you guys are. What are you up to again?” He had no more made the thought, when the object abruptly changed direction and took off to the east, moving steadily faster, climbing slightly, when it finally just winked out. As Ron states that from his mountain top location, he’s seen this type of disco ball colored UFO sphere several times in recent years. He says he’s very curious why they are visiting Broome County.

(Picture: Twitter)(Picture: Twitter) People quickly took to Twitter to post pictures of the spectacle, while others attempted to debunk the claims. Houston is 666 miles from Roswell (spooky, right?) so maybe the aliens were looking for their friends who conspiracy theorists believe crash-landed there in 1947. Vice president for Astronomy at the Houston Museum of Natural Science Dr. Carolyn Sumners urged people to remain sceptical. She told KPRC: ‘I think the trick in UFO’s is figuring out what else they could be. ‘It’s easy to say that could be the aliens.’ MORE PHOTOS & CONTINUE READING: metro.co.uk/2014/08/19/people-of-texas-claim-they-were-visited-by-a-ufo-as-lights-are-spotted-in-the-sky-4837741/

Dozens of people have photographed the mysterious sight. (Photo : Nathaniel Xavier / Instagram) Houston is ablaze with people reporting a UFO flying over their city on the evening of 11 Aug. Images of what appear to be a circle of lights, hovering in the clouds, are being distributed on social media, including Twitter. Other images of the mysterious sightings include one of the objects, apparently on its side, putting on a light display for onlookers. While some pictures show the flying object in clouds, other shows it against plain sky. "I think the trick in UFO's is figuring out what else they could be. It's easy to say that could be the aliens," Carolyn Sumners, vice president for astronomy at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, said. Sumners investigates UFO's, and is in the process of writing a show about the controversial subject. Proponents of the idea that aliens are visiting the Earth, as well as skeptics, let their voices be heard on social media. Stormy weather in Houston could be partly responsible for some of the unusual sightings, although the underlying cause remains a mystery. There is also a streetlight in the area that looks much like the reported flying saucer. Some observers believe the lights seen in the sky were really just a reflection of that fixture on clouds. Another theory holds that residents of Houston saw an experimental aircraft, designed for either the military or NASA. Johnson Space Center is located in Houston. "All the way back to recorded history, there are going to be things we can't explain. That's what makes it exciting," Sumners told the press. Due to the large number of observations, there is little chance the images are deliberate hoaxes. However, several fake pictures, and at least one video, have been seen online, likely made in response to the dozens of actual pictures taken by residents of Space City.

Sighting Details I was in my backyard early in the morning when I looked up and saw a bright object high up in the atmosphere, star-like, but as bright as Sirius, moving straight up. It would spurt, slow down to almost a stop, then spurt up again. It did this about 6 times and was then just gone when I was looking at it. Its color changed from green to orange to yellow to red, not flashing but slowly changing from one color to the next. The sighting lasted from 20 to 25 seconds.

I didn't see any UFOs down here but I saw a really cool meteor last night. It was big and green and so bright even the lights at the football stadium couldn't block it from view. It was very cool.

Sighting Details on the way out to the barn tonight, in the southern sky a little to the east, I noticed a stationary spot in the sky, alternating red, blue, white, a single source, not like a plane's lights, although that's what I thought it must be. There are lots of planes in the sky at night, see those all the time, but this was different. I noticed it wasn't moving...or if it appeared to move, was in very small circles...got out the binoculars, held them as steady as I could against a tree, and watched this thing for over 15 minutes, and it never really seemed to move, the lights just kept oscillating red, blue, white.
Then, in a %$#& instant, and I mean, in a half-second, it became a pinpoint, way far off. I could barely make it out, but could still see a faint color change taking place, unlike the stars around it. Tried to keep focused on it, but it disappeared or I lost track of it. Stayed out there for a while hoping for another look, but the clouds moved in. It was somewhere between aspirin-sized and star-sized when the event began, ended up being star-sized before disappearing.

West Virginia October UFO reports rise above national averageOctober 30, 2014 Usually quiet West Virginia has seen an uptick in UFO reporting during October 2014 with several "low to the ground" reports, according to cases logged with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) in their witness reporting database. Here are cases filed in October that also occurred during the month of October. Investigation follow-ups will be made for each case with MUFON's West Virginia State Director Fred Saluga.
<>Three ‘football field sized’ UFOs reported low by multiple West Virginia witnesses Ten West Virginia witnesses near Marmet working a coal plant evening shift reported watching three triangle-shaped UFOs the size of football fields silently moving under 500 feet, according to testimony in Case 60631.
The incident occurred at 10 p.m. on October 12, 2014, at the coal plant along Winifrede Hollow Road. “The plant was down and there was no noises anywhere,” the reporting witness stated. “Me and nine other guys had just finished doing pipe repair and were standing outside leaning against trucks. One of the guys pointed up and said, ‘What is that?’”
The group of workers looked up to see the first object. “We all looked up and saw a triangle-shaped object outlined in white lights the size of a football field coming up the hollow from the southwest [Beckley, WV area]. It might have been 300 to 500 feet above us. It was moving very slow and made no noise. We watched for about 3 or 4 minutes as it disappeared over the trees.”
The group watched as two more objects appeared.
<>West Virginia witness files UFO video of object near recent Marmet sighting A new West Virginia witness came forward today with video from a 2013 UFO sighting in the same area as a recent case where multiple witnesses reported three triangle-shaped UFOs the size of football fields near Marmet, according to testimony in Case 60779.
Today’s Case 60779 occurred at 7:15 p.m. on April 2, 2013, in Cross Lanes – about 24 miles northwest of Marmet. The witness uploaded one video with the MUFON report.
“I have seen this two times now in two years with video and pictures,” the witness stated. “My neighbor and son also saw this as I intended to use their telescope to get a closer look.”
<>Uptick in West Virginia low flying UFO cases Two new West Virginia UFO cases were filed yesterday involving low-flying craft – totaling four October case investigations underway, according to reports 60806 and 60814. For UFO cases filed in October 2014 that also occurred in October, here is an up-to-date overview of all four investigations.
Case 60750: October 9, 2014, 9 p.m., Barbour County in north-central West Virginia. The reporting witness was sitting on his father’s front porch with his sister and father when the object was first seen. “I noticed a bright light rising above a tree at a distance and didn’t think anything of it until it paused in the sky followed by two more lights behind it,” the witness stated. The three ventured into the backyard to photograph and videotape the object.
“And out of nowhere the bigger object just takes off at a speed that I can’t even describe and followed by the other two lights which weren’t as fast.”
<>West Virginia UFOs: New sighting describes cigar UFO hovering under 500 feet Reports of UFOS under 500 feet continue this month in West Virginia as a new witness at Charleston reported watching a cigar-shaped object hovering near I-64, according to testimony in Case 60861. The witness was driving eastbound along I-64 approaching Charleston, WV, at 5:30 p.m. on October 15, 2014, when the object was first noticed.
“I observed an object that appeared to be cigar or cylinder-shaped, hovering maybe 500 feet above the city valley area, closer to the west end of the city,” the witness stated. “The interstate at this point is elevated above the city, which sits closer to the river level. So my view of the object appeared to be straight on.”
The witness stated that there were periods of rain in the area and he had stopped to take pictures of rainbows. While watching the rainbows, he noticed the hovering object and first thought it was an airplane as Yeager Airport is nearby.
<>UFO reported hovering near Morgantown, West Virginia A West Virginia witness at Morgantown reported a hovering UFO “larger than a plane” about 1:15 a.m. today, according to testimony in Case 60886.
“I have been watching this thing for 30 minutes to an hour,” the witness stated. “It stays in its location but moves around in a zigzag or dancing pattern side-to-side and up and down without actually going anywhere. It hovers in same spot for long periods.” The object seemed to get out of the way of a passing airplane.
“When a plane was approaching at about the same altitude, it moved up about double and then triple the space above the plane. After the plane passed, it came back down.”
<>West Virginia witness says UFO hovered over Bridgeport Fire Department A West Virginia witness at Bridgeport reported observing a triangle-shaped UFO hovering over the local fire department sometime between 8 and 9 p.m. on October 27, 2014, according to testimony in Case 61018. The witness was driving through downtown Bridgeport when she first noticed “a UFO-like object hovering over the Bridgeport Fire Department or slightly behind it.”
The witness described the object: “The object was gray in color, triangle-shaped and had three lights closest to each tip. The lights were white. It appeared to be larger than a golf ball but smaller than a basketball.”www.examiner.com/article/west-virginia-october-ufo-reports-rise-above-national-average?CID=examiner_alerts_article
