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.
FL, August 5, 2009 - moving lights and fireball. MUFON Case # 18502.
Witnesses at Florida's Grayton Beach saw what first appeared to be airplanes or helicopters, due to their formation. But the objects soon began moving "sporadically and then multiplied into about 9 lights and also a sort of 'bobbing' orange light. As they moved across the sky they went from 4 lights to 6 to 9 then to 1 large fire ball that streaked with trailing sparks and then they all disappeared and the fireball left a 'smoke' trail." By the time they took a photograph, the objects had merged into a single light - just barely visible in the photo at the top of this page in the cloud cover.
NM, August 5, 2009 - Very large bright orange lights lighting up to the eastward like Knight riders front bumper. MUFON Case # 18512.
Two brothers out coyote hunting 15 miles north of Roswell saw "a horizontal string of lights around 10,000 ft up and around 60 miles away near Ft. Sumner area." They described the lights as very large and very bright orange and "square/oval shaped." The lights were visible for about 35 seconds and they disappeared. Five minutes later, a "fighter jet" was seen scrambling to the area.
AZ, August 5, 2009 - a ball of light bounces upward then flys off seconds later helicopters chase after it. MUFON Case # 18509.
This Arizona witness "saw a ball of green light toward A-mountain on the west side of town bouncing from left to right very fast" and moving upward and away at a high rate of speed. Seconds later, "five military helicopters" moved toward the object.
OK, July 15, 2009 - Orange glowinging sphere in the clouds. MUFON Case # 18507.
An Oklahoma witness driving to work noticed "a glowing orange sphere dropped out of the clouds." The object moved in and out of the clouds several times and then disappeared into the clouds. As there was lightning activity in the area, the witness wonders if it was ball lightning.
OR, August 5, 2009 - it had no wings.it was silver cylinder it casted no reflection from the sun. MUFON Case # 18506.
A Oregon witness noticed an object in the sky that had no wings, was silver, and silent. The cylinder-shaped object seemed to be traveling like a missle and disappeared into the horizon.
HI, August 5, 2009 - Two reddish round balls flew across the sky. MUFON Case # 18503.
This Hawaii witness "noticed a moving light coming from the north, and it stayed in my sight as it continued in a straight line at a high altitude across the heavens and gradually disappeared from view, toward the south." Then a second another object came into view "following the same path. Neither object produced any sound. The object's "size appeared like a planet, maybe, and the warm color seemed more glowing than flashing."
PA, August 5, 2009 - We saw a red light dart across the sky, turn around, rotate to show a white light, and dart in the opposite direction. MUFON Case # 18501.
A Pennsylvania couple driving along Route 173 south toward Grove City "saw a red light in the sky at the top of the hill near the intersection of George Jr. Rd." At the top of the hill, they noticed the red light again as it moved from west to east. "It slowed and then began to turn as it ascended for a banked 180 degree turn. As it was turning, a white light appeared on the left side of the craft as if it were rotating clockwise to set itself up to speed off. It then moved very rapidly to the West." The wife said she could see "the shape of the craft similar to a "stingray" as she put it, or similar to the Stealth Bomber. She also thinks, but is not sure she saw a blue light on it as well. I only saw a red light on the right side and a white light on the left side."
TX, July 24, 2009 - walking our dog in the evening before bedtime. MUFON Case # 18500.
One Texas witness saw "a bright white glow (like a halogen light) even with the roof line of the house." The object "was glowing white light, looked like a dinner plate with blue lights around the edge" and moved southeast toward a red light in the sky. A second witness saw a "white light moving in a southeasterly direction. Movement was not like any know aircraft or animal or balloon. It is more a wobble that a floating flight pattern." Both witnesses "observed flashes of light resembling lightning going to and from light." They also report "an interruption in wireless internet at the onset of the episode."
GA, August 4, 2009 - 3 red balls of light in triangle formation, and slowly faded away one at a time from left to right. MUFON Case # 18499.
A Georgia witness saw three red lights in the sky and thought it was a C-130, but feels that the lights were too far apart and it lights were hovering in one spot. The lights stayed on for about 60 seconds, and then one-by-one, they each faded away. There was no sound.
SC, August 3, 2009 - Several orange glowing objects entered the atmosphere at a high rate of speed, then came to immediate halt, formed a line, turned into "air-plane lights" then dissapated. MUFON Case # 18498.
IA, August 1, 2009 - very faint, white balls, three of them in V or triangle shape, hoverd very high. MUFON Case # 18497.
Three witnesses at Pickard Park in Indianola, Iowa, saw three "white dot" lights in the distant sky in a triangle formation. "We watch the three balls for about 15 to 20 mins before we just seemed to loose sight on them. The strangest part of this all was that the balls seems to get slightly closer and further away very slowly changing the angles between the three balls but always keeping a triangle shape, as though they were all connected by somthing unseen."
NM, July 11, 2009 - semi-translucent 6' x 6' ululating wave. MUFON Case # 18493.
A New Mexico witness had just pulled out of a driveway and was just 200 feet away from home traveling at 15 mph "when the SAME object was caught in my headlights - same size, still "ululating" like a wave w/ a tinge of the dark red color, crossing the dirt road in front of me by about 25 ft again, this time heading north towards the BLM (Bureau of Land Mgmt property) into the darkness." This is the second sighting of the same "semi-translucent 6' x 6' " wave." The original report is MUFON Case # 18056.
A New Jersey witness at the Belmar boardwalk taking pictures of the ocean at sun rise noticed later that two photos included an unusual light - "a round object out there in the sky." The photographer does not know what the object is.
