UFO Sighting Reports

Thursday April 10, 2008
Welcome to this week's UFO sighting reports. Let's take a look at some of the best entries submitted this past week.

California-03-23-08-It was early morning at 3:30 AM, when my girlfriend and I were walking back from our friend's place. We were at MLK and 57th Street in Oakland. I looked up and saw strange lights hovering above us. My girlfriend said later it looked like eight aircraft flying really low above us.

I didn't take time to count, but I took her word for it. I saw the lights too, but was stunned by their passing. We didn't hear any planes. The lights headed northeast. They were about five hundred feet above us, and the lights were really bright. The lights passed by fast! I grew up in Oakland, and have never seen anything in the sky like these lights. What we saw was not a plane or anything else, it was unexplainable for them to fly so low and have such bright lights. This was unlike anything I have ever seen. source-www.mufon.com

California-3-24-08-I had just got home after talking to my close family members and friends about an experience I had. I was walking home from my work studio when I saw I think, 6 lights above me. I was at about 40th and Broadway, Oakland, California, when I saw them fly above me slowly.

What I saw could have been about six or more aircraft moving over head or one aircraft with six lights on it but whatever it was, it was not a jet, or helicopter. It was silent and stealthy-no noise came from the object. I'm from LA and have seen many airplanes and helicopters pass by and they have that specific noise and red light-these had six or more lights that were bright white on the cooler side (whitish blue), and no sound whatsoever.

It was really creepy, and I even called the police department which responded as if I was crazy. My close friend told me about MUFON. I feel that my words cannot explain all the details of what I remember. All I can say is there were bright white lights flying low and did not blink or flicker. They passed by like no aircraft I have ever seen. source: www.mufon.com

North Carolina-03-27-08-While driving an ambulance down Hwy 401 South between Garner and Fuquay Varina, North Carolina, I saw a triangle-shaped object flying at approximately 1000 feet altitude. It was very low to the ground, and making no noise. There were no markings noted.

The object did have a red light at back left corner, and a white light noted to the back right corner with no tail noted (looking up from ground). I was able to pull ahead of trees and noted object at high rate of speed over trees in the distance. This was witnessed by two paramedics. I've never seen anything like this before. source: www.mufon.com

Pennsylvania-03-28-08-I went out back to have a smoke, looked up and saw a dimly lit, uneven triangle with about 8 to 10 lights moving too fast to be anything conventional. What I mean about uneven is that one side had 7 lights and the other side had 2 or 3 lights. It moved left a little, then back right, but the other parts of it as the center moved kept perfect pace with it. But the other parts moved around and back and forth but made the exact turns that the center did.

Then it was just too far away and too fast to see anymore. It was unbelievable. Behind my house is a flight path for airplanes and I see them constantly. There were also planes around that looked as if they were standing still compared to the speed that this or these things had.

With it moving so fast, there would have never have been time to photograph it. I know someone else in the area had to see it. It was like it was following the river the way it was moving. There is an airport really close to my house. They had to see it on radar! source: www.mufon.com

Texas-03-26-08-I was looking out my garage window (looking west to east) and a triangular-shaped object just appeared in my line of sight. It had 5-6 lights, was slightly tilted (which enabled me to see the triangular shape) and appeared to be much larger than an aircraft. My view was not obstructed in any way.

It slowly moved from south to north for approximately 2-3 miles, and then just disappeared. Right before it disappeared, it moved slightly toward some bare trees that are a block over from my home. I could still see it clearly through the branches.

There is a municipal airport in that direction, so I am VERY used to seeing small aircraft, plus I live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, so I also see a lot of commercial aircraft as well. I have been a radiographer (X-ray technologist) for 11 years, which requires me to be a keen observer. I also have perfect vision. There was no mistake!

It had too many lights, and the lights were not in the same places as they would be on a conventional aircraft. When the craft disappeared, I immediately stood up and began to look for it, but it was gone. It almost seemed like it turned in on itself. I wasn't going to report this, but after thinking about the importance of it all, I decided to go ahead. source: www.mufon.com

That will wind up this week's listings, but check back next time for more UFO sighting reports from around the world. Until then, keep your eyes on the skies.
