Case 112819: Joshua [last name withheld] was relaxing on his apartment balcony when he observed a large “V”-shaped object over Cordova, Tennessee, a suburb of Memphis.  The craft had a black surface color and five, white external lights facing toward the ground.  The white lights were unwavering.  It was estimated by Joshua to be between 500 feet to one mile in distance, and the lowest altitude was greater than 500 feet under a cloud cover.  The object, which Joshua associates with the military, was observed for approximately two minutes and maintained the same altitude throughout the sighting.
 
Joshua’s drawing, which was taken from the Internet, is shown left.

Case 113005: Near midnight of the New Year, Jordan and three other witnesses sighted a yellow-orange, “sphere” about 60° above the horizon in Beavertown, Pennsylvania.  Beavertown is located in Pennsylvania’s Appalachian Mountains.  The sighting lasted for about two minutes while the object blinked, pulsated and glowed.  There were no sounds or emissions.

Case 112993: Webster Springs, West Virginia, is approximately 15 miles southwest of Sutton Lake and is a rural town located nearly in the center of the state.  Directly east of Webster Springs are the Allegheny Mountains.  At about 1:30 AM while sitting in her car, Kimberly [last name withheld] sighted what she called a “disc” that ascended from “the side of the mountain” and then hover.  She described it as having “left a trail” and had a “flame’.  The object then ascended and seemed to spin around at the same time.  On her report she checked the “appeared solid”, “spun”, “vibrated” and “glowed” entries.  According to the report, the object had a “dome”, “windows”, and was silver/chrome in color.  Kimberly took five photographs and a short video.  The entire event took approximately 15 minutes.  The video seemed to show a faint, squared-off object with a bright white structure underneath emitting apparently what she referred to as a “flame”.  Two of her photographs however are far clearer and even more mysterious.

Case 112109: As I live near Sacramento, California, I have realized that during the past few months there seems to been an “uptick” in the number of sightings reported to MUFON from the region around Sacramento.  In addition to this sighting, other recent sightings near Sacramento have been Cases 112504, 112116 and 111974.
 
On the above date in Carmichael (a suburb of Sacramento), California, John [last name withheld] was preparing to go to his gym class and decided to warm up in a local park.  After a short run, he felt too much pain and decided to lie down for a while.  Directly overhead (i. e., 90° above the horizon), John could see a “star-like” object traveling west to east at an extreme altitude (what he referred to as the “maximum height” of a commercial aircraft).  John’s statement indicates that he “attempted to talk to it” apparently in hopes that it would respond in some way.  Shortly thereafter, the object suddenly descended, falling like a leaf, thousands of feet to treetop level.  John claims that it then fluttered, vibrated, pulsated and wobbled while hovering.  It was the color and size of a silver/chrome basketball, sometimes appearing to be solid, other times transparent.  It made no sound and left no emissions. 
 
After observing the orb for between five to eight minutes, the object ascended thousands of feet to its original altitude and continued on its original path eastward.

Case 112504: Sevdie, a high school student, and her two friends were outdoors in Elk Grove, approximately 12 miles southeast of Sacramento, California.  At first, the object seemed to be a ”big, bright light”, but too big to be a star.  It appeared to be a small sphere inside a larger sphere.  The whole object pulsated, glowed, vibrated and seemed to be transparent.  In her report, Sevdie described it as being white, but in her description, it was also “with vivid hints of red and maybe blue or green”.  The three witnesses watched the object for approximately one hour at about 2° above the horizon.  As can be seen from Sevdie’s photograph below, the object had “fuzzy edges”.  In her report, Sevdie stated that the object was stationary; however, the video reveals that the object had a random movement but stayed within the camera’s field of view.  There was an aircraft in the vicinity both before and after the sighting.

Case 112465: I know, I know; who cares about lights in the night sky over the Las Vegas Strip, anyway?  Particularly, when there is only one “witness”.  Generally, I’m dubious about most “lights in the night sky”, but this case may be different.
 
Juliette [last name withheld] was with a friend(s) on Las Vegas Blvd. at 7:30 PM.  She took seven snapshots beginning with the Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino and ending with Bally’s Hotel & Casino (photo # 7).  She didn’t bother to record the camera settings.  Why would she?  She and her friends didn’t actually see the blue lights in the sky; they in fact were not real “witnesses”.  She was photographing the casinos and not the blue orbs.  Juliette realized what she had captured only after she viewed them later (a frequent event in such cases).
 
Her first photo showed two, pale blue points of light above the Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino.  As she panned toward the Planet Hollywood Hotel & Casino (see below), she caught what appear, at least, for this writer, a string of several, faint, blue lights and one, blue “smudge” over Paris Las Vegas and a blue “smudge” over Planet Hollywood.

Case 112248: Dustin [last name withheld]  initially saw the “star-like” object as a “blurry line” and as it approached, he could see a bright red orb and preceded by what Dustin called its “bow-shock (a semi-circle of misty air around the front, but not connected to the object)”.  He then called his wife Heather to then watch the orb turn toward the north of Middlesex, North Carolina.  There was no sound or apparent emissions.  The object was 50° above the horizon and heading toward an airplane in the distance.  The observation lasted 2 minutes.
 
Dustin’s drawing of what he called a “star-like” object and its shock wave appear left.

Case 112260: David [last name withheld], his girlfriend, Tami, and his neighbor, Scott, observed the apparently random movements of what they described as a yellow-orange “sphere” over Charlotte, North Carolina.  Viewing their video, the object appears to be a bluish-white color with an irregular internal coloration.  The object was at 70° above the horizon, pulsated and appeared to spin.  Five minutes later, the object hovered in place.  According to David, there were also 11, presumably, military jets at a lower level, but did not appear to be in pursuit.  After 45 minutes of observing the object, they went inside to view the videos.  By that time the object had disappeared.

Case 112081: In the evening, Dennis [last name withheld] was outdoors with his telescope and binoculars – apparently one of his daily routines.  “About 10:15, I was scanning the skies and came across a dark mass.”  To Dennis, his initial impression was that it was a triangle, but on closer look, it appeared to be a boomerang-shaped object with five solid, rectangular panels on the near side and three panels on the far side.  Dennis claimed that the panels had a “patterned gray surface”.  The slow-moving object then proceeded on a straight path 45° above the horizon and between 500 feet to one mile distance.  There were no sounds and no emissions.  Dennis described the craft as about the size of a commercial jet aircraft.

Case 111947: In Austin, Texas, Eric [last name withheld], a photographer, observed what he called a “domed”, multi-colored “circle” just after 7 AM in the morning.  Without sound or emissions, the object was approximately 45° above the horizon and at a distance of greater than one mile.  It hovered, turned abruptly, changed shape and direction and ascended.  The object glowed, had fuzzy edges and brightened.  As can be seen from the photograph below, it had a reddish, fuzzy aura, with yellow around the circumference and a green-colored interior.  At other times, it had a green-white color (see Read More below), but also violet, blue, silver/chrome and pinkish-rose.  Eric claims that the object, at times, had what appeared to be white exterior lights and it pulsated.
