It’s common for sky watchers to see UFOs pulsing from dull to bright in the night sky. These sequential photos taken by the live-feed video camera on the International Space Station provide a closer look of that pulsing.
The video was preserved by Mary Hall who was watching the ISS live-feed video the early morning of January 22, 2023. – The editor
In October 2021, over the course of several days off the East Coast of the United States, U.S. Navy crew members on the USS Kearsarge reported being followed by two car-sized “balls of light.”
On deck crew members reported that the two car-sized bright objects followed the Kearsarge, a Wasp-class amphibious assault ship in the U.S. Navy, about 200 feet above the surface of the ocean and about 1/2 mile behind the ship. Crew on the Kearsarge checked in with headquarters and were told it was “not ours.”
At this point, commanding officers aboard the USS Kearsarge decided to deploy anti-drone weapons to investigate and potentially disable the objects.
They were unaffected by the weapons, and continued to perform fast-paced, swooping maneuvers
Dave Beaty, UFO researcher and TV journalist, wrote an in-depth blog post about his attempts to gather more information about this incident via FOIA requests, and communication with senior military officers. It is thought that crew members have video of this object, but no specific videos have been shared with the public.
Pictures from the ship’s public Facebook page reveal they had these capabilities on board at the time of the alleged encounter.
The objects are said to have been spotted at night by the deck watch — who could not gain a thermal targeting lock on them.
It is understood the incident was recorded on video by the crew — but this footage has not yet been released.
Marines onboard are said to have believed at first the unexplained objects were part of a surprise training exercise for the new anti-drone weapons.
However, they discovered the countermeasures did not disrupt the objects — which were doing swooping maneuvers as they followed the ship.
Mark told Beaty that the USS Kearsarge radioed command about the objects and were informed the objects were “not ours.”
The documentarian is attempting a deeper dive into the event, which is the latest UFO incident reported to have been encountered by the US Navy.
Beaty previously revealed deck logs that confirmed a UFO encounter by the USS Kidd — when the destroyer was swarmed by at least four unexplained objects in July 2019.
This photo was taken by my father Edward Pline at the sawmill in Ward where we lived at the time, I think it was 1929. I was about six years old then. My father was there to photograph the sawmill for some reason or another, and as he was taking the photo, he described a “terrible thunderous bellow,” and a large round thing as big as a very large boulder that moved through the air above them. You can see it in the picture. None of the sawmill workers saw the thing in the photo, but they all heard the sound and felt the ground shudder. Later in my life I tried researching the incident at the County Historical Society, but I did not find any references to it. My father passed on a few years after the incident, and I have not found any surving sawmill workers from that time. Perhaps you have more information about this incident. Best wishes, Hetty Pline
Curiosity’s mission to Mars began years ago, but the rover has continued to study the Red Planet well past its initial two-year mission timeline, to establish the historic habitability of Mars for life. It is now working in collaboration with the new Perseverance Mars rover, which landed in February 2021 and has been tasked with collecting rock and soil samples for a possible return to Earth.
KENS NOTE: As you know by now, NASA says it has no evidence of life on Mars. After researching a few thousand images from the rovers on Mars, I have discovered hundreds of insects and very strange things. NASA has purposely blurred many images on Mars in order to hide life on Mars. All you have to do is research and view the NASA hi-def images to see for yourself. I have found the most images on Gigapan. ….……. Panoramic Photography | Panoramic Images | Hi-Res Images | GigaPan This will take you to images on Mars. You can also find the GigaPan images on Facebook. There are a few Mars sites that have the GigaPan images on them. These images seem to be in hi-definition and makes it easy to spot insects or mammals. Make sure you are using a larger desk top screen or laptop, at least 16 inches, to properly see the image. Zoom in on the image and see for yourself. It usually takes me a few hours to properly scan one image for insects. Below are some of my newer findings on Mars. Sometimes it is very hard to get a clear image of these insects. Most of the time they are very small and by the time I enlarge them, the image looks blurry. Send me your findings and I will publish them for you….newdiscoveries51@gmail.com
KENS NOTE: Make sure you view these insects on a large screen desktop. Remember that rocks do not have legs, eyes, hair, tails, fur and antennas. They also camouflage themselves with the areas background.Most of these insects vary in length from 4 inches to 24 inches. All NASA has to do is look at their images from the Rover and helicopter. Many times, NASA blurs out portions of a hi-definition image or they copy and paste duplicates over the object they want to hide. NASA is lying to us again and it’s a wonder why the news media has not reported this to the world. It’s funny how the truth never comes from the news media.
For all of you conspiracy theorist, there is talk about Devon Island, in Canada, as being the place where most of these photos were taken. There are an increasing number of people who believe that NASA’s rovers never left the Earth in the first place, and the pictures they are allegedly sending back from Mars are taken in remote areas of our planet. “Evidence suggests that the pictures that we see on NASA’s website are not even taken by the Curiosity and Opportunity rovers. “It is very possible that by now, both rovers are stored in a hangar, somewhere at NASA’s headquarters.”
There seem to be rather a lot of spaceships hovering in the West’s night skies. More than 200 police officers have come forward to say they have seen UFOs flying over the British countryside, a detective revealed yesterday. And according to the bobbies’ X-files experiences, for the past 50 years the West has been a buzzing hotspot for extra-terrestrial activity. One of the first recorded incidents out of the 84 recorded on the Prufos (Police Reporting UFO Sightings) website, comes from 1963 when PC Anthony Penny, on duty and wearing his uniform, saw an orange shape zoom over the sky and disappear into a field. A few days later, when a large crater was found in the meadow, a bomb disposal team was sent to investigate, and the incident was even mentioned in Parliament. Det Con Gary Heseltine, who works for the British Transport Police in Leeds and runs the database, feels the sightings are particularly credible because they all come from serving or retired officers. “To my logical, police-trained mind, the officers provide excellent witness testimony promoting the ‘nuts and bolts’ evidence that supports the extra-terrestrial hypothesis,” he wrote in a special report for this month’s UFO Magazine. And yesterday, the 43-year-old said he believed the sightings were only the tip of the iceberg. “Many officers are worried about saying anything in case it affects their jobs or careers. That’s why many sightings are only reported to me after officers have retired or if there are multiple sightings that several officers have seen,” he said. “The police are trained observers, they are out 24 hours a day.” A firm believer in extra-terrestrial life, Det Con Heseltine has himself had two UFO experiences. But one of the most dramatic brushes with a UFO was reported by two off-duty policemen at dusk on an October day in 1967, in Lytchett Minster, Dorset. A large cigar-shaped spaceship, that was changing colour and form, was hovering over the village. As they watched, it split in two, disappeared and reappeared, and then shot from view. And PC Roger Willey was one of two officers in a patrol car who reported giving chase to a cross-shaped spaceship in Okehampton, Devon. Their official report filed after the flying saucer sighting said it hovered over Salisbury in Wiltshire for almost a minute.
When Eric Thomason in Maslin Beach, Australia, looked out across the ocean, he saw – to his great surprise – how an object rose from the waves and started flying towards him. When the object came nearer, Eric took out his camera and started taking photographs. – “I could feel water dripping from the craft”, he tells UFO-Aktuellt.
Eric Thomason, 69, is a senior citizen living in Maslin Beach in southern Australia. Not far from his house is an old abandoned mine, Maslin Old Quarry, where he sometimes takes his dog for a walk.
In March 1993, Eric decided to try to document the old mine using his son’s camera, a Kodak S50 with a Fuji 100 ASA-film. Despite having never owned a camera of his own and having virtually no experiencing photographing, Eric set off in order to try to capture the beautiful colors of the open-cast mine from as many angles as possible. And, s photo contest in the magazine “Southern Times-Messenger” about the best image of a sunrise over land also helped him in his decision. He thought he would be able to capture the sunrise on film from Ochre Point, a cliff 60 meters high from where hang-gliders used to take off – but the sun was hidden behind a dense layer of clouds.
The Sun was Hidden
Wednesday, March 10, didn’t appear to be much better. It was a cool morning, only 14 degrees Celsius, and a stubborn wind came from the west. From the top of the grassy cliff, Eric was forced to accept that there wasn’t going to be a sunrise that morning either. A persistent layer of clouds blocked out the sun, and the time was 06:00 AM when Eric instead turned to face the ocean to the west.
– “It was then that I saw a movement on the surface on the water, and something looking like the tower on an atomic submarine emerged, Eric tells UFO-Sweden. When the object rose from the water I was able to see how three legs were pointing out from the hull. I was also able to see how it was spinning, and how the three legs were pulled in.”
Before the legs were pulled in, Eric managed to take his first photograph of the object, and he estimates the distance to the object at the time being about 400 meters. It then dawned on him how exposed his position was. Standing on top of the Ochre Point with the sun right behind him made him an easy target to spot for a possible crew.
– “I had heard of people being abducted by UFOs, so I climbed down a slope nearby. From there I could see how the light-grey object came flying somewhat south of me, and came to a halt over the mine. At that very moment I spotted yet another object, north of the first one. That’s when I snapped my second picture, but since the light from the sunrise was straight into my view-finder I moved a little to the left.”
While taking photographs from his hideout five meters below the top of the cliff, the new object moved towards the larger one, came to a halt, and then continued upwards, into a deepening in the larger object.
– “I could see three lights on the exterior of the larger object and how it shone around the opening. Shortly after I’d taken the fourth and last photograph the larger object rose straight up and disappeared over me. When that happened, I could feel water dripping from the craft down on me.”
In a report form to the Australian UFO-group Australian Flying Saucer Research Society, Eric estimates the size of the object to be 40 meters, and the distance (when he first saw it rise from the ocean) to be 2 kilometres. While talking to him on the phone, Eric tells me how it never got closer to him than 400 metres.
When the incident was over, Eric returned home. However, despite his amazing encounter he decided to remain quiet about it, even to his wife. He first wanted to have the film developed in order to find out if there indeed were any photographs of it. But he was not in a hurry. Before he handed in the film for development he made sure to use up the entire film. And not until May, 1994, when he had watched a UFO show on TV, did he bring forward the photographs.
– “At first he didn’t tell me anything since I wasn’t feeling well at the time, and later he believed that the photographs weren’t going to show anything”, Mrs. Thomason says when UFO-Sweden talks to her. “But after he had had the film developed he showed them to me. I’m certain it’s a spaceship. Eric is not the lying type, and I believe him.”
Just after midnight on a late Fall night, a series of calls was received by 911 operators. These reports all involved one thing- reports of low-flying UFOs. The majority of these calls were heard by dispatcher Roy Anne Rudolph.
Reports mostly related a fairly fast moving, unknown object / lights that seemed to be descending. Naturally at first, 911 operators thought the callers were seeing a balloon, plane, helicopter, or other everyday object.
But, because of the extraordinary number of calls, Rudolph decided to notify the policemen of Liberty Township. The first police unit contacted thought that the reports were probably nothing to worry about, and that a plane was probably flying low.
Sergeant Toby Meloro was the first officer on the scene, as he proceeded down Samson Drive to check out the lights. He was informed by a man on the street that the lights were moving south.
As Meloro continued southerly on Samson Drive, suddenly his cruiser went dead. As he attempted to restart his vehicle, it was engulfed by a bright light from above.
Startled and frightened, he exited his vehicle, and stood outside looking up at a giant object, circular in shape, and intensely bright in the center section.
After about thirty seconds, the giant object moved away. One the most striking things about Meloro’s sighting was that he heard not a sound from the UFO.
After the object had moved out of sight, the police cruiser’s functions returned to normal. Trying to understand what he had just seen, he took off in pursuit of the UFO.
Meloro was unable to keep pace with the UFO. He called dispatch, informing them what he had seen, and gave the object’s direction of flight.
Soon, this information was related to all active law enforcement units in the area, and reports of the object’s direction were used to triangulate the object, and enable units to move to its location.
Dispatcher Rudolph later stated that at least 14-15 officers had seen the UFO. Their reports of the object and its movements were openly discussed among the officers on the police radio.
Police dispatch, with reports of the UFO spreading to adjacent communities, called the local airport FAA control tower, and asked if they had anything unusual on their radar. Control tower stated that they had nothing unusual on their scope, which covered a 60 mile diameter around Youngstown.
Researcher Kenny Young did an in-depth study of the Trumbull County sightings. His requests for Freedom of Information Act documents regarding the case was denied. He interviewed officers involved in the case, and was confident that they were telling the truth.
Lieutenant James Baker, of the Brookfield Township Police Department, was one of the officers monitoring the fantastic calls, and decided to have a look for himself. He climbed up an abandoned radar tower in the area to get an optimum look at the object.
As he reached the top of the tower, he was shocked at what he saw – not one, but three UFOs. The three objects were in a triangle pattern, with the middle object slightly higher than the two on the side.
Also, Baker stated that the object changed colors in unison – red, yellow, blue, and green. He reported his observation to the other patrolmen on duty.
Astronomers have tried to explain the sightings as simple stars that appeared low in the sky, and appear to change colors.
Of course, this does not explain the malfunction of police vehicles, lights engulfing them, or objects moving across the landscape being chased by policemen.
Some have theorized that the object seen by the policemen of Trumbull County was a top-secret craft from the Youngstown Air Reserve Base.
However, Captain John Keytack, from the base, stated that there were no planes, experimental or otherwise, flying that night.
The policemen of Ohio have spoken often about what they saw on December 14, 1994 – Police cars that inexplicably stalled, light beams engulfing their vehicles, one or more structured craft of a nature never seen before or since.
The 1994 sightings of Trumbull County have never been adequately explained by conventional flying objects.
The Chilean Navy released a video taken by a Navy helicopter in 2014 that depicts a craft with “two thermal spotlight-like discharges” flying at 4,500 feet. UFO skeptic Mick West has explained this to be flight LA330, a Boeing C-40 Clipper, operated by commercial airline LATAM. There is not universal agreement on this explanation.
Mick West, renowned UFO skeptic and debunker, created a one minute “Metabunk Minute” video that explained that the UFO was flight LA330 – a LATAM commercial flight. He recreated the infrared shots with a primitive scale model of a C-40 aircraft like the one flown by LATAM, and researched flight paths and times to conclude with a simple, earthly explanation.
However, Twitter user Omega Click Official, who claims to represent “the largest UAP community in Italy” asserts that newly released documents from the Chilean Navy refute West’s explanation. The Black Vault, a website that documents and analyzes UFOs, paranormal activity and FOIA requests, states, “The Black Vault holds no view on what the object is.”[1]

Ok this is the recount of my sighting that chat gpt made from all the details I gave from my sighting. I will attach a picture of what I wrote down directly after the sighting that is completely in my own words. (The chat gpt version is still very accurate, and helps to paint the picture better I think or I wouldn’t include it)
On August 14th, 2025, about 10:15 PM, I was outside of my home in Hayfork, California. The sky was crystal clear — no clouds at all, stars sharp and bright. I was facing north-northeast when I saw it: a huge, disc-shaped object hanging in the sky, maybe 35 to 40 degrees above the horizon.
The shape was unmistakable — a thin, rounded discus, not thick like a football or loaf of bread. From where I stood, it looked about as wide as a dollar bill held at arm’s length — which, in sky terms, is massive. The closest part to me was the midline of the disc, with the top and bottom curving gently away toward the center, giving it a solid 3-D presence.
What struck me immediately was the surface — it wasn’t smooth and dark like a plane. The entire visible side was covered in what looked like hundreds, maybe thousands, of small, warm yellow-orange lights. They weren’t arranged in any perfect grid or pattern. They were scattered, each one a slightly different brightness from the next, no two right next to each other the same. The effect was almost organic, like looking at embers in a fire or bioluminescent organisms under water.
The whole craft was rotating clockwise, about one full turn every two seconds. But there was something else happening on top of that spin — an “imaginary” line of brighter lights, running from the top center of the disc to the bottom center, like the arm that holds a globe on its axis. That line wasn’t a solid streak; it was just the place where, in that moment, the lights seemed to be the brightest. And it didn’t stay fixed. It slowly rotated around the disc in the same direction as the spin, but more slowly — maybe one full pass every five to six seconds.
Because that bright zone lagged behind the craft’s rotation, the light wave and the spin speed didn’t match. It made it obvious that the entire disc was spinning as a single unit, and that the light effect was being controlled separately — not just a by-product of rotation. This mismatch created a mesmerizing wave of brightness sweeping over the surface.
The darker sections between bright sweeps seemed to merge into the night sky. The camouflage was so effective that parts of the craft almost disappeared when they weren’t lit — like it was cloaking itself. The random flicker and varied brightness across all the lights made it incredibly hard to see a solid outline, even though I could clearly sense its size and shape.
It moved east to west in a steady, straight path. No sound at all — and out here in Hayfork at night, you’d hear even a distant plane. I had it in view for about 15 seconds. First, clear against the open sky. Then, I caught glimpses of it through the trees. Finally, it slipped behind the ridge of the mountain and was gone.
Adrian was with me and saw it too — he even pointed it out at first — but he didn’t pick up all the detail I was able to see. Still, the fact that we both saw it makes me certain of the timing and direction.
I’ve seen plenty of planes, satellites, drones, meteors — this wasn’t any of those. It was too big, too close, too quiet, and far too deliberate in its light behavior. I don’t know what it was, but I’ll never forget the way it looked, how it seemed to glide like it was part of the sky itself, and the eerie, calculated way those lights moved across its surface.
Soviet military encountered many UFOs, maybe for this reason in the end of the 60s a secret laboratory of researching “flying objects” was created in the USSR. UFO researchers often blame the military of hiding the cases of alien rockets and disseminating false information of UFO. Army officers are not interested in the disputes about alien civilizations, they are interested in knowing what impact UFO can impose to military equipment and personnel. 1947. Antiaircraft guns of Transcaucasian Military District fired on the flying cigar-shaped object which came from the side of the Turkish border. The object”s flying altitude was below 4,000 meters, and the guns were capable of reaching a target at the altitudes up to 12,000 meters, but that time the fire made no harm to the “cigar”. Then the cigar increased its speed and flew away over the mountains. This incident could cause much trouble, because earlier the border guards and military ships monitoring service missed this target. Then the military was unable to trace this flying object over the country”s territory. The Border District command ignored and ordered the monitors not to disclose the information that the object reached a speed up to 2000 kilometers per hour.
Similar case took place in 1984 in Turkestan Military District. Near the city of Astrakhan air-defense system marked the ball-shaped object flying at the altitude of 2000 meters along the Caspian seashore in the direction of the state border. The object did not respond to the inquiry made by the military on the radio. Two fighter-planes took off, but they were unable to bring the object down. After being under fire, the object descended down to 100 meters, and at this low altitude the planes were unable to continue firing. Despite being fired at, the object was having a regular speed. The ball passed over several military units, which allowed to make its photo. Near the city of Krasnoyarsk the military tried to bring the object down with the helicopter. However, it quickly increased its altitude so that the helicopter could not reach it. After firing all its supply of shells, the helicopter landed, and the ball abruptly flew in the direction of the sea and disappeared from the radar screens. In the same area the similar scenario case happened later. The object having the shape of cylinder demonstrated its invulnerability. Such a demonstration could be the purpose of its flight, because this UFO was having a speed of 100 kilometers per hour. One can blame the military of inhuman actions on bringing down flying objects. But what can they do if the object was moving in the direction of the state border and they had the order to destroy such objects?
In 1985, near the town of Krasnovodsk the radar station under the command of Captain Valuev registered the disc-shaped object in size of 1,000 meters! The object was immovable, and some time later a small disc in size of 5 meters flew out of it and then landed on Krasnovodskaya spit. Patrol boats rushed to that area, but when they reached the distance of 100 meters from the object, it took off and flew one kilometer away. This happened five times. Then the object flew up at a huge speed, reached the bigger disc, which finally flew away spaceward. In the end of the 60s, a secret laboratory of researching “flying objects” was created in the USSR. Among the laboratory”s tasks was researching anti-gravitation, but the research results were made secret. Its testing area was near the town of Kapustin Yar on purpose. In the end of June of 1971 the military could see over this area a black cigar-shaped flying object floating under the clouds at the altitude of 800 meters. The object was 25 meters long and had about 3 meters in diameter. It had neither stabilizers nor wings nor engines and was moving at the speed of 150 kilometers per hour producing no noise.
In 1978, the Soviet Ministry of Defense accepted Network MO program. Special military unit in the town of Mytishi was in charge of collecting data, and newly established “space troops” were designated to fight possible threat from space. In the beginning of August 1987, five soldiers of Leningrad Military District went to the North of Karelia region on a special mission. They were required to guard the object of unknown origin. It was found on the territory of another military unit near the town of Vyborg. The item was 14 meters long, 4 meters wide, 2.5 meters high. The object had neither doors no hatches, and all attempts to open its hull were unsuccessful. The military tried to break off some object parts, but were only able to take some rods from its stern. In the end of September the object disappeared from the hangar without leaving a trace.
On November 18, 1995, over Long Island, New York, airliner Lufthansa 405, an Airbus A-340, was on routine flight to Germany.
Over Long Island, The Airbus made a call to Boston Air Traffic Control. They report that they have encountered an unidentifed flying object approximately 3,000 ft. from their plane.
The UFO is described as a long, cylindrical object with a white flashing light on its front, and a long, green, comet-like tail.
Arriving from London, British Airways Flight 226, called Speed Bird, also sees the object. Neither of the two pilots believe the UFO was a meteorite.
Neither of the two airlines made comment on the encounters.

TEXT OF RADIO COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN FAA AND TWO COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT IN THE VICINTY OF LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK, ON NOVEMBER 18, 1995, at 2220 hrs. (EST).
LUFT: Uh, Boston, Lufthansa 405/Heavy.
FAA: Lufthansa 405, go ahead.
LUFT: Uh, we just passed traffic on the left wing, uh, about 2,000 to 3,000 feet above us. What traffic was it?
FAA Is this Lufthansa 405?
LUFT: Affirmative, Lufthansa 405. We had opposite traffic on the left wing. Can you confirm this?
FAA: Lufthansa 405, negative. I show no traffic in your area within, uh, 20 or 30 miles.
LUFT: It should be now on our tail, about 10 miles… We passed it just one minute ago, and it was looking strange.
BRIT: Speed Bird 226 confirms that. It was just above us on our left-hand side about 3 minutes ago.
FAA What altitude does it appear to be at, Lufthansa 405?
LUFT: It was only 2 or 3 thousand feet above us. We are now passing (Flight) Level 260. That’s confirmed, or not? Lufthansa.
FAA: Lufthansa 405, roger.
BRIT: Speed Bird 226, we confirm that. We had something go past us about two, well…about one to two thousand feet above on the left hand side. Uh, looked like a green trail on it, and a very bright light on the front of it. We assumed it was an opposite traffic.
FAA: Speed Bird 226, roger that.
LUFT: ((Garbled))..Lufthansa 405/Heavy. we are right now about 26 miles east of “Hotel Tango Oscar ((Hampton??)).” And the Speed Bird is now ahead, or behind us ((or where)?
FAA: Lufthansa 405, the Speed Bird is in your 12:00 o’clock, and about 30 miles, 40 miles.
LUFT: That was not our traffic. Lufthansa 405 Heavy.
FAA: Lufthansa 405, roger. And the heading of the traffic, was it the same direction, or opposite direction?
LUFT: Exactly opposite. Lufthansa 405/Heavy.
FAA: Roger. Did it pass off your right side?
LUFT: Uh, left side.
FAA: Roger.
BRIT: Yea, Speed Bird 226 confirms that. We saw the same thing. It certainly looked like an aircraft initially, but it may not have been one.
LUFT: ((We can’t tell then??)) It was looking very strange, with a long, uh, light, in the tail.
BRIT: Yea, a big bright white light on the front, and a greenish tail coming out the back.
LUFT: Can you confirm this, Lufthansa 405/Heavy.
FAA: OK, Lufthansa 405, Speed Bird 226. Thanks, we’ll look into it.
??? ((Garbled transmissions))
FAA: Speed Bird 226, did it go over…did it go overhead. The traffic go overhead you, or was it below you?
BRIT: It was overhead and off to the left, much the same as ((garbled)). It actually looked about…opposite traffic, 2000 feet above. That’s what it initially looked like. But then it did have a very strong trail to it…a vapor trail, which looked more like smoke. And the light on the front was very, very bright, and as it went past us, it seemed to ((just?)) disappear and ((went)) 5 miles behind us.
FAA: Speed Bird, 226, roger. Were you level at 29 at that time?
BRIT: Yea, affirmative.
FAA: Roger. Lufthansa 405, how far off to your side did that pass, the traffic pass?
LUFT: It was pretty close, and like Speed Bird said, it looked like ((four??)) or three thousand feet above on the left wing, just one mile and, uh, on opposite track… It doesn’t have, …it didn’t have any uh, lights…((normal)) lights, beacon lights, or red or green lights. Only a white light in the front, and with a long green light. It looked like a U-F-O.
FAA: Lufthansa 405, roger that. Like I said, we had nothing flying in the area. You are just north of a military operating area, but the traffic shouldn’t have varied out that far out,…out of the area.
LUFT: Must have been a military. Lufthansa 405/Heavy.
FAA: Roger. Giant Killer, ((garbled)) 59.
GK: Giant Killer.
FAA: Hey, you got anything flying out in the area?
GK: Negative, ((105 is??)) turned over. 0300.
FAA: Well, I just received a couple of UFO reports.
GK: Oh, is that right?
FAA? Yea, I had a couple of guys that reported lights, just moved all over their heads. I have no traffic whatsoever in the area. They said it passed within a mile of them, like at 2-3 thousand feet above them, opposite direction. ((Garbled)) green trail out the back.
GK: It could have been a meteor, or something.
FAA: ((Garbled–Yea, it could have been that… it passed within a mile of them.))
GK: Who reported that?
FAA: Well, I got Speed Bird and Lufthansa.
GK: No, we don’t have any aircraft out there.
FAA: OK.
NOTE: The above image is real but from another case file.
These two photos are from a short video we received on February 11, 2020 from Rick Vandersteen along with the following brief explanation of what he saw.
“I took this video on July 1, 2017 from the backyard in Orange Park, Florida. I steadied my camera phone on the top of a wood gate next to the house.
“First, a blue beam appeared. Then, about the 13-second mark, an exotic bird flashed over and a gold colored ship appeared behind the clouds. At that same exact moment, the blue beam appeared again.
“I take this encounter as intended specifically for me because the blue beam of light terminated in front of me as it appeared to come down beneath the roof line, and the ‘bird’ flew DIRECTLY over me.”
EDITOR: You have to look closely to see the “gold colored ship.” It is wedged between the white clouds at the tip of the tail of the “bird.” An enlargement is shown on the right.
On July 18, 1997, at 10:00 am in Rome, Drew Wright captured this photo. Despite nursing a hangover from a night of cheap red wine, he noticed a mysterious object in the sky. Local boys referred to it as “il disco” and pointed upwards. Drew managed to snap a quick shot before the object disappeared, causing him to miss his planned visit to the Sistine Chapel.
When this was first posted, we gave the wrong starting time for the UFO video. It begins 38:14 minutes into Jaime Maussan’s news broadcast. A large UFO was caught flying across the Moon on September 29, 2022. The video was taken in China with a long-range professional camera. Significantly, internationally known Mexican journalist and UFO researcher, Jaime Maussan (L), obtained it and deemed it creditable. He says it’s one of the most interesting UFO videos in recent years.
“The disk-shaped spacecraft would have an approximate size of 54 kilometers (33.5 miles) in diameter,” Maussan says.
The Chinese UFO video is only part of a regular newscast by Maussan. It begins 38:14 minutes into his broadcast. Here’s the video link: youtube.com/watch?v=OmPx_3Z9vvY
“UFO testimony is one thing, but when you receive testimony backed up with a quite spectacular UFO photograph, well that’s another matter. We at SPI received quite an amazing UFO photograph which was unlike anything we have ever seen before.
It was on 12th November 1991, at around 9.30pm, that friends Phil Trevis (previously known as Peter Muir, a pseudonym used in previous SPI accounts) and Paul Penman (pseudonym) were out taking photographs for a project called ‘Light and Dark’. The following is the written testimony by Phil Trevis, as given to SPI.
“My friend and I were taking photographs of the BP chemicals plant in Grangemouth (from Polmont Reservoir) when we noticed a dim, or rather, two small dim flashing lights over by the two ‘flashing pylons’ at Kincardine Bridge. We watched the object, which we thought was a helicopter, fly slowly over from the bridge to above the brightly lit Grangemouth Stadium. We watched it hover for around five minutes. It was then that we noticed that the ‘craft’ wasn’t making any noise. Normally, if it was a helicopter, we would have heard the blades. It then turned around and faced our direction.
“It was roughly 2,000 feet above the ground, then it dipped and increased dramatically in speed. At the point of the photograph, it was about 200 to 300 feet directly above us. It was then that we heard the light ‘pulsing hum’ of the object. My friend and I were quite shaken at the time, but afterwards had an overwhelming sense of excitement.”
SPI conducted the usual lines of investigative enquiry to try and get to the bottom of this incident. We ascertained that there was no aircraft activity in that part of central Scotland that night. Letters to the British Petroleum plant at Grangemouth, asking them if they had any small light aircraft or microlights in operation above their complex that night (on pipe inspection duty) came back stating that no such light aircraft or micro-lights were flying above the plant that night. (The BP plant at Grangemouth is in controlled airspace; only special authorization can be given for overflights of this highly explosive complex.)
Indeed such was the closeness of this object that Phil Trevis had to bend over backwards to take his photograph, and so what you are actually looking at is the underside of the object – concave, with numerous bright flashing lights being thrown out into the dark night sky, which creates a sort of halo effect. The object is consistent with what was being sighted above and around the small town of Bonnybridge in Stirlingshire, central Scotland; the town of Bonnybridge is still experiencing UFO sightings, but not as many as those which peaked between the years of 1992 to 1994.”
According to a 2004 History Channel documentary, there was an exciting UFO event that occurred in 1996 in the Midwest USA.
On February 28, the crew of Air Shuttle flight 5959 initiated the reports. While cruising near Cleveland, they saw an unidentified, lighted object flying below them.
The pilot radioed Cleveland Air Traffic Control, and reported what he and his co-pilot were observing, asking the controller if he had anything near that position on his radar. The controller did not.
Shortly thereafter, the pilot of Mesaba Airlines flight 3179, who had been monitoring the radio communications, reported to the tower that he too had seen the UFO.
The UFO initially was reported as flashing white, but soon displayed an array of various colors. Shuttle 5959 also related to the tower controller that the UFO was several thousand feet below his plane, and about 10 miles away.
The only possible explanation that the Cleveland tower could suggest was that the crews were seeing a reflection in the clouds of a landing beacon. But both planes reported that the light was a distinct source of its own.
The pilot of 5959 decided to drop down below the object. When he did, he could still the spinning, pulsating object above him very clearly. This proved that the lights were not originating from the ground.
Mesaba 3179 even attempted to make contact with the UFO, by blinking its lights, but there was no response from the unknown object.
Mesaba would also report that one of their passengers had snapped photographs of the UFO, and the Cleveland tower reported that they would like to take a look at them.
What happened to the photographs is a mystery, as well as what the object was that was seen by two aircraft on February 28, 1996.
Below is an excerpt from the transcript of radio communications between Cleveland tower, Air Shuttle 5959, and Masaba 3179.
Air Shuttle 5959: Air Cleveland, this is 5959. We see traffic out there. Ah… twelve to one o’clock. Ah… low altitude. Do you have him on the radar?
Cleveland Control: Air Shuttle 5959, that’s a negative. Sir, I don’t have anything out in front of you at twelve to one o’clock.
Air Shuttle 5959: Ok…
Cleveland Control: He’s down well below you or can you get an estimate on an altitude on him?
Air Shuttle 5959: Well, that could be really difficult. Ah… we’re between layers here. I’m just going to estimate two-three thousand feet below us. Maybe and ah… sort of ah… pulsating light about, I don’t know, ten miles out.
Cleveland Control: Ok, Air Shuttle 5959. I’ll keep my eyes open. But I don’t see anything.
Masaba 3179: Was that northwest of Detroit did you see that light?
Air Shuttle 5959: Yeah.
Masaba 3179: Yeah, that’s where I saw it. A really bright white light, sometimes flickering… ah… underneath the clouds is where I saw it.
Cleveland Control: Air Shuttle 5959, is that traffic, ah… that you saw earlier? Do you see him out there any longer?
Air Shuttle 5959: Air Shuttle 5959, that’s affirmative and it’s a light that kind of… it goes dim and it gets bright. I don’t know if we’re getting closer to it or what? But it looks like a rotating light around it like ah… like a Frisbee type thing that’s going around it.
Unknown voice: UFO.
Cleveland Control: Masaba 3179, do you see the same thing?
Masaba 3179: Ah… sir, I saw it coming out of Detroit and I wondered… ah… all I saw was just a couple really bright flashes of light and it almost looked like lightning and it caught my eye. And then I kept watching it and then it looked a little bit less bright. But it looked like it was underneath the cloud deck to me. And this was just as we were coming out of Detroit.
Cleveland Control: Ok, and can you get an altitude on it at all?
Masaba 3179: The light that I saw was just like, maybe, I don’t know… twenty-five miles northwest of Detroit. Is it what you’re referring to or you’re talking about the light at our twelve o’clock now about ten miles?
Cleveland Control: Any kind of target off to your twelve o’clock?
Masaba 3179: Ah… we have some kind of white light out there at twelve o’clock and the captain ah… says it’s pulsating. It looks like oncoming traffic. But it’s just sitting about the same place that it’s been the whole… here about ten or fifteen minutes we’ve been watching it.
Air Shuttle 5959: Year, Air Shuttle 5959. It looks like it’s almost over Saginaw from our position.
Cleveland Control: Ok, Air Shuttle 5959. Contact Saginaw Approach Control 126.45. I appreciate the information.
Masaba 3179: 3179, that target looks like it’s ah… below us. I would guesstimate maybe ten thousand feet.
Cleveland Control: Around ten thousand feet, would you think it might be like a reflection? Ah… maybe perhaps off a beacon that for some reason, it’s just one of those weird things. Ah… natural phenomena that you’re getting a reflection, cause I got nothing out there.
Masaba 3179: I don’t know. I mean we can see a clear, you know, relatively solid cloud deck… ah… below us and this is definitely ah… distinct whitish ah… well, now it’s looking a little red and greenish white, sort of pulsating light and it’s constant. It’s not a beacon.
Air Shuttle 5959: Air Cleveland, Air Shuttle 5959.
Cleveland Control: Go ahead, sir.
Air Shuttle 5959: Yeah. Hey, be advised we’re descending to four thousand feet right now and as we descend through ten thousand feet, that object is above us right now. It is not on the ground. It’s about ten thousand feet.
Cleveland Control: Ok, sir. We’re checking on it right now. I don’t have anything out in front of You at all I’m showing. I appreciate you coming back to the frequency and letting me know.
Air Shuttle 5959: I’ll keep you advised. I tell you what that is weird. It keeps sitting there pulsating.
Cleveland Control: Masaba 3179, where is it relative to you right now?
Masaba 3179: Twelve o’clock sir.
Cleveland Control: I’m trying to do a little investigating as to what this might be. If you would keep me advised on this.
Masaba 3179: Ok, sir. I’m going to blink my lights at him and see if I can get a reaction. 3179, was the other guy that saw that light was he headed southeast bound or was he headed to (garbled)?
Cleveland Control: Well, he was inbound to Saginaw and actually when I sent him over to Saginaw, I expected that was going to be the last I heard from him. He came back up on the frequency and advised me that his clearance was down to four thousand and that he said that what he saw, was still up above him and was like a red… he said it was red and green light that was pulsing and like rotating. He said he would keep me advised and give us a report once he got into Saginaw. You don’t have a camera on board, do you?
Masaba 3179: We could probably get one from one of the passengers. You want us to ask?
Cleveland Control: Yeah, that would be kind of interesting to have a couple of pictures. I think… ah… might make our case a little better.
Masaba 3179: Ok, 3179, we got a passenger taking a picture of it right now and ah… we have a flight attendant who says that ah… they might have saw the same thing the other night.
Cleveland Control: Masaba 3179, I copy that. Ah… Masaba 3179, when you flashed your lights, did you get any response?
Masaba 3179: Didn’t appear to, sir.
Cleveland Control: Ok, Masaba 3179, I’m going to send you over to Minneapolis now sir. Is it still on your twelve o’clock?
Masaba 3179: Ah… negative sir. It’s at about our two o’clock now. We ah… made a turn.
Cleveland Control: Ok, so it’s off your right side about two o’clock. I’d sure be interested to see those pictures. Can I ah… get you an address that you might be able to send a copy, if you get a copy of them?
Masaba 3179: Yeah, sure. We can do that and actually we made a right turn and he’s off about ten to eleven o’clock.
Cleveland Control: Ok, so he’s off your left side. Ok.
Masaba 3179: Ok, thirty-two-nine. We’ll see you. I wonder if those pictures will show anything?
Masaba 3179: Air Cleveland, Masaba 3179.
Cleveland Control: Masaba 3179, go ahead.
Masaba 3179: I just want you to know that I took a picture, as captain on the left side. I also took (unrecognizable) of some of the stars above, so the lowest light on those pictures. The only single light at the bottom of the picture should be ah… what you’re looking at. And you might be able to get a position with the sky if you want to go that far.
Cleveland Control: Ok, great. That’s a good idea, I appreciate that.
Masaba 3179: It was an instamatic camera. Good night sir.
Cleveland Control: Good night.
NOTE: THE ABOVE IMAGE IS REAL BUT FROM ANOTHER CASE FILE
Hi Ken, I was at Shaldon taking photos of a ship called Marie, which was coming in from sea, heading towards Teignmouth dock. When a black object suddenly shot down from the sky and flew along the side of the ship at an incredible rate of speed. My Nikon P900 camera was already to my eye, my finger already in motion.
The sequence of clicks captured the ship, the water, and, entirely by chance, a single, miraculous frame that contained the anomaly. In the split-second it had raced past the vessel, my shutter had frozen it in time within one image. When I got back home, I reviewed the images on my computer.
In the photograph, the object was positioned directly above the ship’s bridge superstructure. It was not a bird, not a drone, not a lens flare. It was definitely anomalous in nature. Zooming in, the details became both clearer and more bewildering. The core of the object appeared as a perfect, dark sphere, like a bubble of polished obsidian.
Encasing it was a shimmering, faintly luminescent halo that I can only describe as a greenish force field — a distorted shell of energy that seemed to warp the very light around it. I enlarged the image to its maximum resolution, the pixels bleeding into abstraction. Within the dark, central sphere, a shape resolved itself.
It was vague, shadowy, but undeniably structured. My mind, seeking pattern in the noise, interpreted it as a bipedal form with a large, domed head — the classic “grey alien” archetype. I immediately recoiled from the conclusion, a rational voice in my head chiding me for pareidolia — the human tendency to see faces and figures in random patterns.
It was likely just a trick of the light and digital grain, but the impression was chilling and indelible. This was not an isolated event for me. This stretch of the Devon coast, for reasons I cannot explain, is a hotbed for the unexplained.
I have documented numerous anomalous objects here, strange lights performing impossible maneuvers, silent crafts that hover and vanish. I have seen so many anomalous objects in this particular area. The photograph was taken at 6:06 PM on the 10th of July 2025, Shaldon, Devon, England. All the best John.
MY FRIEND JOHN MOONER IS THE CHIEF INVESTIGATOR FOR WORLD UFO PHOTOS AND NEWS.ORG. AND WORLD UFO PHOTOS.
The UFO Phenomenon in Mexico has been recognized as a fact in an historic and unprecedent decision taken by the mexican Department of Defense under his Secretary of Defense General Clemente Vega Garcia, commander of all armed forces in this country. The insolit meassure that will change history here in Mexico was the result of a high level incident in wich a mexican Air Force airplane, military pilots and personal were involved in a situation with several UFOs while doing a routinary suveillance antinarcotics operation to detect a drug smuggling flight.
On April 20, 2004 Jaime Maussan was contacted by a high officer of the Department of Defense to have a private meeting and discuss a subject of a high relevant matter. The next day Maussan met General Clemente Vega Garcia, Secretary of Defense and his major staff and was informed about an incident that took place on March 5, 2004 on the aerial space of Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche where an Air Force Merlín C26A Bimotor airplane was doing a routinary flight to detect a smuggling drug airplane during an antinarcotics operation. The Merlin C26A was equipped with a high tech advanced digital equipment to register and record all the activities during the operation. Powerful sensor detectors like a FLIR STAR ZAPPHIR II and a RADAR AN/PS 143 BRAVO VICTOR 3 were being used by qualified personal aboard the airplane and all the operation was being recorded both in normal and infrared mode. The airplane was under the command of Mayor Magdaleno Jasso Núñez. The FLIR operator was Lt. Mario Adrián Vázquez and the RADAR operator Lt. German Ramirez, all of them members of the 501 Aerial Squadron. This airplane is programmed only for surveillance and detection procedures, not for interception or combat maneuvres. Their duty is to detect and identify drug dealers filghts and then inmediately report them to the base where combat planes are scrambled to intercept those narcotics smugglers
At aproximately 17:00 PM the Merlin C26A detected an unknown traffic at 10,500 feet over Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche airspace and according to the protocol and suspecting a drug dealer airplane Mayor Magdaleno Jasso made a maneuver to approach the unidentified traffic at certain range to get a close look and record the target with their equipment. At the same time Mayor Jasso reported by radio to the base that a posible suspect was detected requesting the interceptor planes to be in alert condition. The RADAR AN/PS 143 BRAVO VICTOR 3 was detecting the unknown traffic and the FLIR STAR ZAPPHIR II was recording the object in infrared. As the Merlin C26A tried to approach the unknown traffic to make a visual identification it suddenly in a surprising maneuver escaped flying away at tremendous speed. By this time Mayor Jasso tried to persecute the target but it was very fast. All this was being recorded by the FLAIR and also the radio conversations with the base describing the inexpected maneuver of the unknown. However the C26A still have not made visual contact with the unknown object.
Just some moments passed when suddenly the unknown object returned and began following the Merlin C26A in a surprising situation. This was detected by the RADAR and the FLIR while the personal aboard were trying to make visual contact of the unidentified traffic now following them. In seconds the equipment detected now not only one but two traffics following them. The images in both RADAR and the FLIR were clear and unmistakable. But both pilot and personal still could’nt have visual contact with these two traffics following them adding a great suspense to this disconcerting situation. Mayor Magdaleno Jasso reported to the base the insolit incident that was taking place giving detail of all the informations registered by the equipment while keep trying to make visual contact of the unknowns. The FLIR kept recording in infrared every movement made by the two unknown objects that seemed to be keeping their distance from the C26A but still following it. The personal aboard the Merlin C26A were confused and disconcerted seeing the images on the FLIR and the RADAR asking themselves what was going on with this insolit situation.
Over the course of many nights in 2007, 2008 and 2009, a Turkish night security guard named Murat Yalcin Yalman from Kumburgaz filmed over 25 videos documenting unidentified aerial objects. These objects were disc and oval-shaped, and metallic in appearance. At times, red and orange lights were observed at or near the same time that the UFOs appeared. Other people living in the area also reported seeing the UFOs. Most of Yalman’s videos were filmed in the early morning hours between midnight and dawn. This case was widely covered in Turkish media and around the world.
The Kecksburg UFO incident, occurring on December 9, 1965, sparked curiosity across six U.S. states and Canada. A fireball was initially thought to be a meteor bolide burning up, but speculation emerged. NASA’s 2005 statement suggested Soviet satellite debris. However, records of the findings went missing in 1987. Notably, the incident has become a topic of interest in popular culture and ufology, drawing comparisons to “Pennsylvania’s Roswell.” The mystery still lingers, with theories ranging from extraterrestrial craft to remnants of the Soviet space probe Kosmos 96.
Few UFO cases combine spectacle, secrecy, and conflicting explanations as powerfully as the events that unfolded near Kecksburg, Pennsylvania, in December of 1965. What began as a brilliant fireball streaking across the evening sky quickly turned into one of the most debated encounters of the twentieth century. Witnesses described an object crashing into the woods. Soldiers descended on a small town with unusual urgency. A large, acorn shaped craft was seen being hauled away under cover of night. Theories emerged, shifted, and clashed, but the mystery surrounding the Kecksburg incident has never faded. Today, almost sixty years later, the story continues to unsettle researchers because so many crucial questions remain unresolved.
