An Alabama witness at Remlap reported watching a dark, cylinder-shaped object, being followed by a jet plane, according to testimony in Case 81858 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and a daughter were driving along Route 79 north at 6:25 p.m. on February 1, 2017, when the incident occurred.

“All of a sudden, we saw two lights that were strobing across the sky, from east to west, right above the trees with a jet plane directly behind it in pursuit. It was so low that we were able to see the doors of the landing gear on the jet.”

These first few seconds of the sighting scared the daughter.

“She looked at me and said, ‘Please tell we just didn't just see what I thought we just did!’ All I could do was confirm with her what we had both seen. I was at my mother's house within two minutes and called my husband immediately because my daughter and I have always been sceptics, but my husband had always been a believer.”

The woman’s husband told her and their daughter to draw what they saw immediately.

“So we sat in the car and we drew it out. We went into my mother's house and told her what we saw, and my mother said she heard a roaring, rumble noise that vibrated the house. Like an engine was accelerated to the max. We are still in shock, not really believing what we saw. My husband told me about this website and wanted me to report this.”

An Iowa witness at Cedar Rapids reported watching “two large ships in the western sky, according to testimony in UFO Case 81805 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was visiting his 83-year-old mother at 8:15 p.m. on January 29, 2017, when the incident occurred.

“I went outside to the car and I looked toward the western sky and saw what looked like a very bright planet (white light),” the witness stated. “Skys tonight were crystal clear with moonlight. All planets visible as well. The light was so large I couldn't help but look at it more.”

The witness described the object.

“I saw on the right side of this light, a flashing red, intermittent light. I thought at first it was an airplane. I continued to observe object for five minutes, but no apparent flight path to the naked eye. To the naked eye it was stationary. I was so shocked at this enormity of this light I ran inside to get my 10 x 50 power hunting binoculars.”

The object was very large.

“By comparison, this white light was maybe 10 times the size of any planet and 100 times as bright. I returned outside with binoculars and began to focus on the object. The light began to move farther east and north towards me. The object became crystal clear in the binoculars. This large light began to take wild paths directionally, up and down, left and right, and 90 degree turns. I was absolutely stunned to see this large light come from the direction of an enormous ship, circular in shape diameter, but with a more rounded bottom. This ship was easily 10 times the size of the large light. The ship was so clear in the binoculars I could see the bottom construction.”

​A Florida witness at Titusville reported watching just a “glimpse” of an object speeding by while waiting for the launch of an Atlas V rocket, according to testimony in Case 81674 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and her husband were in the viewing bleacher for the launch which was to carry a missile detecting satellite at 8:15 p.m. on January 19, 2017, when the incident occurred.

“We were in a launch delay,” the witness stated. “I was standing in the bleachers and others were sitting. I was staring at the sky as I had heard that UFOs sometimes are around launches. I was looking towards the east and suddenly I saw an extremely bright, yellow/green light and it was wide, and it was close. It was horizontal to the ground, and it streaked by us. I yelled, ‘Look’ and people in the stands caught a glimpse.”

The witness believes there were other witnesses.

“It was so fast that many missed it, but some didn't. The woman behind me who was sitting down and just caught a glimpse said it was a meteor. I said, no, there was something in it. Just before the yellow/green steak of light vanished, for a fleeting bit of a second, I saw part of something metallic. It had a seam, and a shape that was rounded. But the yellow/green light obscured all but a small part of the object. I know what I saw and there was definitely something in that light. The launch was scrubbed, by the way, due to a wayward aircraft in the flight path of the rocket, so we all got on the buses and left. But I was still filled with excitement as I believe that was a UFO. I checked the web and cannot find any record of a meteor on that night.”

An Iowa witness at West Des Moines reported watching a black triangle-shaped object about 100 feet across moving under 500 feet, according to testimony in Case 81617 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was driving to his mother’s home at 8:30 p.m. on January 18, 2017, when the incident occurred.

“When I got very near my mom's house, I saw a bright orange light over some condos,” the witness stated. “Maybe a couple thousand feet above it, there was a fainter yellow light. As I drove a bit more I had to stop in the middle of the street and watch.”

The object moved close to the witnesses’ vehicle.

“It was moving very, very slowly and almost right towards my car. I was too in shock to get my camera. As it got closer, I noticed that there were also green and red lights on this thing. I figured it was a drone, but it kept getting bigger as it got closer.”

The witness described the object.
