An Illinois witness at Hudson reported watching two lights hovering over a lake “attached to something,” according to testimony in Case 92950 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and three friends were watching the sunset on Evergreen Lake in Comlara Park in Hudson, about ten miles away from their college campus at 8:12 p.m. on May 22, 2018.

“As the sky is getting darker, two lights appeared out of nowhere (literally in the blink of an eye) directly above the lake,” the witness stated. “The red light was above the green light and they were obviously attached to something in which the outline slightly resembled a human with his arms a bit out. It flew towards us, evident by how the lights were getting larger as it flew closer, flew backwards (without the lights turning away from us) and then disappeared just as fast as it appeared. The lights did not blink once. We immediately left.”

Illinois MUFON Assistant State Director Roger Laurella and Chief Investigator Daniel Snow closed this case as an Unknown-Other.

An Oklahoma witness at Arkoma reported watching a triangular-shaped object hovering just over the tree tops that moved away slowly, according to testimony in Case 92164 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and her children had left a friend's house in Arkoma after a birthday party at 9:59 p.m. on May 21, 2018.

“Initially, I dismissed the craft, seeing it vaguely through trees on Celia, but when I got onto Main Street in Arkoma, I realized its lights weren't blinking and it was hovering over trees, moving slowly,” the witness stated. “I pulled into the parking lot of Maverick Loans in an attempt to get the kids out to watch while I took pictures, but it shot southward. Spent 20 minutes driving up and down State Line Road trying to find some sign of it. No evidence. Moved too fast and can't focus on the skies while driving on that tore-up street. I was excited at first, wanting to share the experience with my kids (cried out ‘no, don't leave until my kids see you.’) and disappointed that I am the only person on that street that night willing to admit what I saw, evidence or not.”

Oklahoma MUFON Field Investigator Steven Cates closed this case as an Unknown Aerial Vehicle.

An Ireland witness at Ballymahon, County Longford, reported watching a glowing object that morphed into a “large, silver star shape” before quickly disappearing, according to testimony in Case 98601 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was home and up late at 4:25 a.m. on May 18, 2018.

“I went to the window seat to get my laptop and as I live on the fourth floor and have no covering at all over the windows,” the witness stated. “I glanced out over at the forest across the river and noticed a large glowing red/pinky orange object just sitting in the sky above the treetops. At first glance it looked just like the sun, but it was already daylight and the sun had risen. I quickly realized this was no sun or fallen planet which was what I first thought, and which made me really take note.”

The witness could not understand what the object was after watching it for 15 minutes.

“This object was sort of glowing, shimmering but was clearly round and was very sun/planet looking but was obviously way too low in the sky to be the sun or moon or any other planet. I had to walk away and go back to the window as I couldn't believe what I was seeing nor work out what it was. After realizing this thing was still there after a five-minute break, I was just totally gob smacked, speechless and stunned, as I stood staring. After about 10 minutes this object suddenly changed shape/morphed into a large silver star shape and just disappeared before my eyes. As it vanished, it made a weird light in the sky that sort of looked like the old TVs used to make when they were turned off, and a thin white line stayed in the sky for a while after.”

The witness was shocked.

“I’m still speechless and dumbfounded at what I saw. A friend who lives miles away who rises early for work told me two weeks later that he had seen this with a couple of differences. This was before I’d said a word to him so I know I’m not alone and can’t believe I’m the only local who saw this as lots of people here rise early to work at the local factory. I’ve never before seen anything of this nature and would love to find out more if possible as there was nothing in the media as I thought there would be.”

Ireland CAG MUFON Field Investigator Linda Dungan closed this case as an Unknown-Other.

A Portugal witness at Lisbon reported watching a silent, triangle-shaped object that was “completely silent,” according to Case 93352 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and a daughter were outside stargazing on May 15, 2018.

“We usually spend an hour or so looking for something in the skies,” the witness stated. “Having had our first sighting in 2012, we experienced many more since then. Most of the times, the only ‘thing’ we get to observe, are orbs of light though. Around midnight and out of the blue, I saw a black triangle flying above us. It made no sound at all and it had three lights, one in each corner. I only had time to say, ‘Look at that.’ It flew in a straight line and suddenly changed direction and disappeared. We could not believe what we had seen. As soon as we got home, I went online to check if anyone had seen the same thing. That's when I found out something weird. The exact same UFO had been seen flying above my old house, where I had lived for 15 years.”

CAG International Investigator Ken Pfeifer closed this case as Information Only.

An Indiana witness at Garrett reported watching a slow-moving, cigar-shaped object with windows, according to testimony in Case 92110 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was outside having coffee at 5:05 p.m. on May 13, 2018.

“I spotted something to my left in the sky,” the witness stated. “I was looking to the south. It looked like it had windows and was shining, moving slowly. It looked like it was turning, but that was just the shape of the object. It was going straight. No noise. No wings. When it got more in front of us, it was either glowing from sunshine or flame. It must have been as big as a Greyhound bus. I have seen objects before, but never this close. It seems it is just now sinking in what we saw.

Indiana MUFON Field Investigator Patrick O’Brien closed this case as an Unknown Aerial Vehicle.

A New Jersey witness at North Plainfield reported watching a hovering object with “fuzzy edges,” according to testimony in Case 91968 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was driving a friend home at 11:45 p.m. on May 11, 2018.

“Saw a star and another object below it that caught my eye,” the witness stated. “At first, I thought it was possibly a house with weird lights up in the wooded area but after it disappeared, I realized there was no wooded area up there. And even if there was, it was way too high to be a house. For the whole time I saw it, it was hovering in the same place. There were a lot of blueish-white lights turning on and off so that it looked like it was shimmering. And I couldn't make out the shape of it. We stared for it about 30 seconds while waiting to turn onto the highway while the light was red until it straight up disappeared. My friend and I were both trying to come up with explanations until it disappeared. And after about two minutes of going back and forth for a rational explanation it disappeared.”

New Jersey MUFON State Section Director Robert Spearing closed this case as an Unknown-Other.

A Canadian witness at Esquimalt reporting watching two cigar-shaped pods moving southbound in a straight line under 500 feet, according to testimony in Case 91939 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was on a work break at about 10:20 a.m. on May 11, 2018.

“Looked up in the sky and noticed a blue/gray, wingless, soundless pod fly over top of us heading southbound in a descending straight line,” the witness stated, “whilst we were looking in a southerly direction. It made no noise and it wasn’t an airplane. Looked like a cigar-shaped pod, no wings. Then a second one followed a couple minutes later. Then about a minute later, the coast search and rescue airplane flew over top of us in a couple of circles and flew off. We wondered if it was a missile or drone. It didn't have wings. Later on in the day airplanes flew over and you could definitely tell the difference. You could see a con trail and big wings. This area is near a naval base. Thought I'd see if you could help explain what I 'maybe' saw. Thanks. Both of them just kept flying until we couldn't see anymore.”

Canada MUFON Field Investigator Carl Peterson closed this case as Information Only.

A Missouri witness at Caverna reported watching a string of lights at the tree top level surrounded in a mist, according to testimony in Case 91773 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was driving south on I-9 roughly three miles north of the Arkansas and Missouri border at 10:28 p.m. on May 3, 2018.

“I noticed what I initially thought was a helicopter,” the witness stated. “Once I noticed it, I realized that it was ringed in brilliant white light like over-powered LEDs or (very) bright halogens. I watched it approach from the southeast moving northwest at a very gradual angle as it crossed the highway at treetop height. I noticed that the light was swirling in a light mist that seemed to surround the object. It continued up traveling across the road and as it reached the top of the next hill a brilliant light was emitted from the bottom of the craft almost like a really bright aura. At that time the lights on the side of the craft began to strobe multiple colors and then just winked out all at the same time leaving a void in the sky. I couldn't watch any long as the area that the object went to went past my point of view. Had I not had my family in the car I would have investigated further.”

Missouri MUFON Field Investigator Britt Faaborg closed this case as an Unknown Aerial Vehicle.

An Alabama witness at Loxley reported watching a “glowing orange light” that approached and hovered before moving away quickly, according to testimony in Case 91829 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was outside near a barn sitting by a small fire watching the sky on May 1, 2018.

“Had just gone back in house for a few minutes,” the witness stated, “when I started walking back towards the barn and noticed a bright orange light coming over the treetops about 500 meters to the northwest. Grew larger as it came closer until it was almost directly over me. Hovered above a few seconds before shooting off to the south and out of sight. While above, maybe 200 feet or so, it appeared reddish-orange and circular but with three slightly brighter spots around the edges. Overall, a round, glowing object but with three brighter spots that would seem to have made it triangular, although too luminescent to distinguish a triangular shape.”

A British witness at London reported watching a black, triangle-shaped object “about two-to-three times the size of an A380 passenger jet moving overhead, according to testimony in Case 92298 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and his wife were standing in their backyard having a cigarette at 11:30 p.m. on May 1, 2018.

“Jupiter was very low in the sky and we were wondering what it was?” the witness stated. “We got out my phone and used the Skyview app to work it out. We both commented on the fact that we hadn't ever remembered seeing Jupiter or if we had, we didn't know that’s what it was. London skies are always full of passenger aircraft coming into land at Heathrow and we are on one of the flight paths they use. The planes come in from the east over our house and then head out west before they turn north towards Heathrow airport. You can always hear them. This black triangle object with round lights on each of its three corners and one central light that was reddish orange in color appeared in the west.”

The witness said the object was about two-to-three times the size of an A380 passenger jet.

“It flew right over us in one fluid motion, in a slight arch. It rotated slowly as it moved across the sky. It probably made one full rotation in the time we witnessed it. It flew from the west horizon to the northeast horizon in about 8-10 seconds. It was completely silent. The sky was completely clear. There were no clouds and the stars were very visible. We both watched this object come in and pass right over us both. We both knew exactly what we had both seen. It was like watching a silent fiction movie or one of those UFO TV shows, but real life. We both just watched it until it wasn't visible anymore, then looked at each other both with shocked but excited faces and said, ‘what was that.’ Then we both said together, ‘that was a UFO for sure,’ We both knew exactly what we had seen. We are in the photography/film industry. We use our eyes for our job. This object was so clearly a solid structure, but it also had a film static kind of shimmer to the underside of it, a bit like digital glitch. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it was like its cloaking device was switching on or switching off. This was so incredibly strange and overwhelming it has most defiantly changed our view on UFOs.”

United Kingdom MUFON Field Investigator Karl Webb closed this case as an Unknown Aerial Vehicle.
