Location: Cole Valley Road, Yardley Wood, Birmingham
Time: 12.35am
Summary: At 12.35am early on the morning of 2nd January 2017, Nigel was outside his house on Cole Valley Road, Yardley Wood, Birmingham. It was a clear, still and dry night, with the stars and moon fully visible. Looking to the South he noticed an object moving quickly in his direction. It appeared to be very large and tubular/cylindrical in shape. The main body of the object was quite hard to see due to the darkness. Along one side of it appeared to be between 6-8 square shaped panels or windows, which emitted a dull orange/reddish coloured glow. The panels were equally spaced out along the length of the object. It appeared to be flying at a height of 300-400 feet, about the same height a helicopter would fly at. Nigel estimates it was about the same size as a cruise liner aircraft. The UFO moved extremely fast on a straight and level course. Within seconds it had reached his location. It passed over the roof of his house, then turned to the left and headed off in the direction of Kings Norton to the West. It vanished into the distance within 10-15 seconds. Nigel was convinced he had witnessed something extremely unusual.

Summary: I’m not going to disclose my story on here. I will only do this in person. I have video and also pics. I reported to the ufo hotline and wad basically shut down being told I didn’t see anything and the pics I had on my pigging disappeared. so what I have now is on several different devices and I will only show them in person. I thought I was going crazy and it had taken others that have also seen what I have a photos to get me to submit this report. all I do know for sure is what is hovering in the sky’s of Lonedell MO nightlife is not anything that belongs to us. and I open my gate to any one who it’s willing to investigate.

Date: January 6, 2016
Location: Rome, New York
Time: about 8:30 p.m.
Summary: The witness was driving home with his girlfriend about 8:30 p.m. on January 6, 2016, along Elmer Hill Road in Rome, NY, when the incident occurred. “I saw what looked like an extremely low flying plane flying above the tree tops,” the witness stated.“It had three white lights on it and one red light underneath.” As the witness moved closer to the object, he realized it was not moving – but was instead hovering. “It literally turned towards us in the air and flew/hovered directly above us. It made absolutely no sound and turned on a dime. It was the size of a normal jet, but was flat rectangular/diamond shape with a dome on top. I only could see that because the UFO literally flew right above us. It was a pretty scary experience, and completely real. I’ve never seen anything like it and was completely amazed.”

Location: Sylvester, Georgia
Time:
Summary: The witness was outside sitting in a truck in his backyard about 10 p.m. on January 7, 2016, on his 100-acre land parcel smoking a cigar. “What seemed to be a dull light in front of me slowly increasing in intensity, I thought was someone in the woods with a flashlight,” the witness stated.“But it increased in brightness to a brilliant white light.” The witness continued to watch the light as it was very close. “As I sat there I saw it slowly rise to around 10, maybe 20 feet high. I’m not sure. It sat there for a moment and then started to move left of me. Through a path through the trees in my woods I could see it flashing through the woods between the trees. It came out the other end near my pond. It rose up and disappeared. I was amazed at what happened. The witness looked again about five seconds later and it reappeared and went back into the tree line. “It went through the trees and started to rise at a 45-degree angle after it got above the trees. It accelerated rapidly at a 45-degree angle into the sky heading southwest and disappeared. I’ve never seen anything like this before.” The witness looked for evidence the following day. “The next morning I went out into my backyard where I saw it appear and I noticed about an eight-foot, dark greenish, brown circle in the ground. I looked at it for a while. I started to go back to my house and I noticed another one, 800 feet away approximately, so I walked to it and it was identical. Then I noticed another one towards my house. And it was almost in a perfect triangle. One hundred foot apart It stayed there for several weeks. Even after repeated mowing it stayed there and did not disappear until after the first winter frost. I have never seen anything like this before. It was amazing.”

Location: Chorley
Time:
Summary: I was walking to the nearby bus stop with my boyfriend. It was a really windy night, and when we went to turn off into the next street we saw something in the South. What struck me first was that it looked like a Chinese lantern, but it didn’t make sense for it to be not moving when it was so windy out. It stayed stationary and we both stopped to look at it, each trying to come up with theories over what it was. A plane? My boyfriend even suggested it could be a rocket. We were both pretty scared, and we stayed completely still to watch it, still confused as to what the object was. It stayed stationary for a while, before moving to the left and fading out of away, as though it was never there.

Date: January 14 2016
Location: Old Harbor Alaska
Time: beginning about 8:15 p.m.
Summary: The reporting witness and her daughter both made statements on what they saw. The reporting witness was driving to the local gym to pick up her daughter and two friends at 8:15 p.m. “As I rounded the corner by the culvert I thought I saw a shooting star off to my right, towards the hillside,” the witness stated. “As I got to the store/boat harbor area, I realized it was three blinking lights close together. I thought maybe it was a remote control airplane or a drone because it was really dark out, too late for planes to fly and too close to the hillside.” The witness stated that the object was flying pretty fast and she lost sight of it and continued driving. “When I arrived at the school I could see the three girls swinging on the swing set waiting for me. My daughter came running at me full speed waiving her arms. She was all excited saying, ‘Did you see that mom? It was a big drone or something right above us. It hoovered right above us.’” The witness searched the sky above the school and caught sight of the blinking lights with three colors. “The object traveled fast, south, toward the church, and then took a sharp left out toward the bay. It headed straight to the airstrip fast. I thought it was going to land. My daughter wanted me to follow it. I turned by the post office and headed for home.” The four were almost back to the culvert when they spotted the object heading toward them from the airstrip. “It was still out over the bay. My daughter wanted me to stop the truck. She said it was coming closer to check us out and that freaked me out, but I stopped the truck anyway at the first beach pull-off after the culvert.” The witness described the object’s path. “I looked just in time to see the blinking lights fly up higher, fast, and go towards the hillside. We continued home and got out of the truck and looked towards the hillside just in time to see the lights go up, over the hill and disappear.” The daughter also testified in the case. “On Russian New Year’s Eve, my two friends and I left night gym early,” the daughter stated.“As I waited for my mom, I heard a buzzing noise, almost like a blow drier. I was swinging on the swing set and we saw it hover for some five minutes about eight feet above us. After my mom pulled up, it glided toward the church and then over the ocean toward the airport. This drone-type object was about the size of the hood of a truck and was diamond/pyramid-shaped. You could see several layer/steps, top to bottom and a different light on each side – red, green, orange and white. After we saw it gliding towards the airport my mom turned the truck off the road and I could see the drone was tracking us. We continued home and after parking in our driveway we saw it glide over the mountains and out of sight.”

Date: January 25 2016
Location: Greencastle Indiana
Time: about 7:05 a.m
Summary: The witness was driving to work about 7:05 a.m. on January 25, 2016, along eastbound Interstate 70 near the Greencastle exit when a light in the sky was first seen and thought to be attached to an antenna. “I then realized the light I could see was not flashing like the ones on those antennas,” the witness stated.“The object was hovering in place.” The witness was driving and could not stare directly at the object. “I once again trained my attention back to the object. It was now beginning to move horizontally to the right from my perspective. This lasted only a few seconds.” But then the object seemed to take a nose dive. “The object suddenly descended almost straight down into the treeline. It moved so fast I expected to see smoke or something to begin to rise in the area it happened. I did not see anything after that. I later checked online news to see if there had been any flight accidents or meteor sighting. Nothing had been reported to my surprise. I am a rational person with analytically-inclined conclusions. My reporting of this event was not taken lightly. I cannot explain what I witnessed.”
