Scotland: M73/M74 East of Glasgow - Nine Lights Moving Rapidly

Posted: June 17, 2009

Date of Sighting: 13th June 2009
Time: about midnight

Witness Statement: Traveling south from Ben Nevis, driving a team doing the 3 peaks challenge, saw 9 steady lights in the distance, just above the horizon, ahead and slightly to our right. Weather was hazy high cloud with strands of widely spaced fairly low cloud. Few stars visible, but only the brightest. Lights were in a random pattern, which did not change noticeably as the lights moved towards us quite rapidly. The objects were above the lower cloud level and occasionally disappeared individually as they passed behind the clouds. As they came nearer, they took on an orangey tint and had a steady glow, with no wavering of the light and no aeroplane style flashing lights.

England: Porthill, Newcastle-under-Lyme - Large Golden Ball of Light

Posted: June 17, 2009

Date of Sighting: 16/06/09
Time: About 11.50pm

Witness Statement: Went to bed but decided to look out the velux window in bedroom (loft conversion). Opened it wide! Like a hole in the roof. I do this to get a nice breeze on my face if its been warm (gets hot up there!) Looking around at the sky and the back gardens...suddenly between 2 large trees which are about 100ft away at most.. a large(2-3ft?) golden ball of light drifted between the 2 trees. I expected to see it emerge from the other side of the tree, it was moving at a slight downward angle before disappearing. I saw it momentarily through the branches but I saw nothing from then onwards.

Could this mysterious Lincolnshire triangle mark out a hotbed of UFO activity in the region?
The triangle shape is visible on the Google map on our website pinpointing several of the sightings in the area reported to us.

A reader, who wished to remain anonymous, spotted the unusual shape and asked whether there was a strange pattern emerging.

Even the country's leading expert on UFOs dubbed the UK's answer to Fox Mulder has referred to the Louth area as a possible hotspot for UFO sightings. Nick Pope, who worked on the Ministry of Defence's UFO desk in the 1990s told the Leader: "Areas of the country can suddenly become hotspots although there is no logical reason for this.

US: UFO Traffic Report: Minnesota UFO ejects smaller object

The UFO Traffic Report for Wednesday, June 17, 2009, includes 10 selected sightings over nine states, according to witness statements filed in the past 48 hours with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.


Today's stories include: a UFO seen from Minnesota that ejects a smaller object; a triangle UFO spotted over Minnesota; a brick-like rectangular object seen over Michigan; a sphere moving across New York skies; cigar-shaped objects moving over Rhode Island and Arizona; a black circle-shaped object over Washington state; flashes of light seen in Ohio; an odd light seen only from a distance within bushes in Montana; and a California witness is asking for help identifying how V-shaped contrails can be made in the sky.

In other news: We recently reported here that New England MUFON launched a new web site. MUFON group state director Steve Firmani asks us to take a second look as their recent upgrades now include live updates through Twitter, Facebook and MySpace - and Message Boards are now available.

Take a look at the British UFO video at the top of this page. There are more videos of these objects at their YouTube page. Seems like flares, but am open for discussion on this one.

And MUFON's Missouri state section director Margie Kay is back in the news - this time a Fox News report. Watch the video at the bottom of this page.

Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or manmade. If MUFON investigates and reports back on any of these cases, I will update this page.

The following reports and their headlines are unedited. You can read my selected cases by type of UFO report at the UFO Traffic Report index page.

US: Smoke, sign or UFO over park in Va.?

A Virginia family believes the black ring they saw in the sky during a trip to an amusement park was a sign from God.

Officials at Kings Dominion, a theme park near Fredericksburg, say the ring Denna Smith and her family spotted Monday was smoke from the Volcano ride, WAVY-TV, Portsmouth, reported.


Comment: It appears the Smiths have been reading the wrong Signs; Sott.net covered this phenomena back in 2003:
