Analytical Notes      NMS Sightings from NUFORC & MUFON
                                 November 2, 2023, rel


MADAR UFO Officer: Jeremy Haslam
Terms: NMS means "Non MADAR Sightings" where MADAR was not tripped, but the quality of the nearby sighting strongly suggests that MADAR records be checked for curious spikes in data. Although some MUFON entries have been listed, it is the job of each MUFON state group under Project MATCH  to provide MUFON listings of potential sightings of interest. Note: NOL means node was not online at the time of the incident.

I apologize for this delayed report, mostly due to "Black Tuesday" of June 27th where our updated but flawed software was inadvertantly released to the MADAR server. It has taken far longer to get back into things, but we're getting there. This is where our Project MATCH people can really help. What  I'm asking is that any State MUFON UAP Analyst or independent researcher take a good hard look at sightings in their State (or nearby States), making sure the value is worth the effort, and see if there are any MADAR sites near them. The sighting must be of the quality worth correlating with an anomaly. No orbs, distant lights in the sky, distant daylight objects of little scientific value, and only black triangles with anomalistic motion that eliminate "black projects". I will help you with any of these that qualify. The first thing to do is look through this list and highlight sightings in your area. FTR, there is no useable data after the 6/27 software issue.

These are my findings:


6-1-23 Mount Vernon, WA 10:30PM, Anomalous movements, Object was morphing and pulsating. Latitude - Longitude 48.41050, - 122.30815. UFO/UAP 06/01/23 10:30 pm, I was looking north, it was heading east, from over the ocean. I have been watching a low traveling, morphing, bright light through my high-powered binoculars. It was heading north east from me and low in the sky. It first appeared oval, but then it became perfectly round. Its bright orange gold light, changed from lighter to darker. It also had black dots or holes that moved across it changing directions and sizes, like boiling liquid. I first saw it in the shape of a circle. It was pulsating and shining very bright then darker colored gold and orange. Then it would change position and just looked like a flat golden pancake. It maneuvered again and I only saw a dark sliver of it. But, on the outsides of the dark sliver, it was still bright gold. It appeared at first to be flying up right, and now it was flying on its side. Then back to flying upright. Pulsating with those black holes moving continuously. Very active and appeared to be always pulsating and changing its shape. It kept dropping lower and was heading west towards Mount Baker. *Pic

6-2-23 Lakewood, OH 1:21AM, Triangular-Diamond shaped craft, The shape of the craft was triangular diamond shaped that had sharp edges. It was white, glowing, and soundless. It stayed the exacted speed with the exact height for the duration of its travel. It wasn’t going fast or slow maybe like 5-10 mph. The motion of it was unusual it was gliding but unnatural. Certainly something I haven’t seen before. We were in the pool swimming when I looked up and it emerge from the house and flew across to the end of garage then disappeared. It was a residential neighborhood near Lake Erie. *Drawing

6-2-23 Norwalk, IA 9:14PM, Orb / Diamond shaped craft – Anomalous movements, There were lights on the object. Object moved quickly and appeared to change shape slightly. My dad witnessed this, but asked me to post. He said he was at the gas station and looked up because he saw a light below the clouds. He said the object moved around quickly and changed from a circle to almost a diamond shape. It zipped behind the clouds and he was unable to locate it again. *Pic

6-3-23 BadAxe, MI 10:00AM, Disk shaped craft – military jets involved, F16s or f35s dogfighting a UAP. While dropping my camper off at thumb storage the morning of june 3rd 2023 at 10:00 am i was sitting in my car while my husband was unhooking the camper from the truck and all the sudden you could hear jets and they where loud and going so fast so as i sat there watching them like I always do when i hear jets they started shooting off flairs and circling this object i seen come out of the light of the sun and its very hard too describe but from what i had seen it was a disk like shape metallic in color but a weird kind of metallic it was blending with the sun so i yeld for my husband Christopher Bilbrey and he was already attempting to record what was going on the jets continued to circle this uap a few more times and shot of flares once again it seems as they kept loosing it in the sun and the uap was silent and moved in a kind of skipping motion and after losing it again the jets took off. *NUFORC Note: More details on this report can be found in a special posting we made on 6/3/23: https://nuforc.org/post230606 [Checking with MUFON before we run any MADAR checks]

6-3-23 St Johns, FL 10:03PM, Orb shaped craft – Anomalistic movements, Large bright object hovering over trees. We witnessed an extremely bright orb floating high in the sky over trees. For about 10 minutes It didn’t seem to move. Just hovered. We were able to judge what it was doing by where it was in relation to the treeline. Over the course of about 20 minutes, it came down closer to the tree line and then went west very very fast. It covered a great distance in just a few minutes, then was completely gone. The object was a very large floating orb that changed colors. I witnessed this, my husband and daughter, and the neighbors as well. We have never seen anything like this before. I’m attaching a video taken with an iPhone. There may be a simple explanation for this, but I would really like to know what it was. *Pic

6-3-23 Monroe Oregon, OR 10:30PM, Disk shaped craft – Anomalous movements, Greenish Blue streak turned into silver disk shape that was swirling with white light. Greenish Blue streak appeared low in Sky headed diagonally towards ground. Turned into silver disk shape that was swirling with white light. My Wife was able to keep her eyes on it the whole time, as I was driving. It seemed to be hovering in the same spot, with no visible signs of propulsion. For a moment it started to descend, then it popped up and disappeared. This is my 2nd obvious UFO event in Oregon, and the only 2 of my life. Being I have the credibility of a 2nd person seeing the same thing at the same time in this event, I decided to report.

6-3-23 Dresher, PA 11:30PM, Chevron shaped craft – Anomalous movements (Hovering), There were lights on the object. Object was hovering high then sped off at a very high speed. Went out back of my house and saw the object floating above my neighbor's yard high above the trees. It had green lights on the bottom of it. After hovering there for  roughly 2-3 minutes, it sped off over towards a more populated area.

6-8-23 Blackshear, GA 12:37AM, Orb shaped craft, My dad saw, whatever it was, first while he was walking by himself in a wooded area between my neighborhood and one close to mine where there is a pronounced dirt trail/track around an overgrown man-made pond. From his words, "I was walkin' around the pond a few minutes ago, and I seen this ball of light in the air flashing like it was taking pictures! I sat there and watched it turn around the end of the pond and keep  going without making a sound. I ran to see where it went, and it was gone!" At the time of telling me this, I had just gotten home from a friend's house to find him in the truck with it cranked and ready to go. He was telling me that he was about to go get me so we could ride around to the other neighborhood, which was in the direction that he last saw it moving. As we got to the end of main road in the adjacent neighborhood, we both saw it. I immediately pulled my phone's camera up and out of the window of the passenger truck door and began recording. In the video, you can see a bright ball of light flashing that seems to move away from the camera, further into the treeline on the other side of the opening it was originally in. After thinking about all possible ways to debunk what we saw, I came to thinking I may have been up a little to long and was mistaking the blinking light of a cell tower that is normally seen right above the treeline in a couple directions at night. Even after rewatching the video, I convinced myself that the ball of light was motionless
and it was just my shakiness moving it on-screen. The strange part about that being the reason would be that the cell tower has a red blinking light, and if that were the case, there would be no possible way I could the camera far enough to move the light behind the trees. I was sitting still in the passenger seat of a truck, stopped at the end of a road.
Thinking back, I could also very vividly, with the naked eye, see the tops of the trees around the orb light up with every flash as it moved further into the trees. The picture shows the location and view as a reference. It was accidentally taken with the flash as I was in a rush to get the camera out to film a video.

6-8-23 Campbellsville, KY 10:30PM, Rectangle shaped craft – Anomalous movement, This is seen at nite and is rectangular with a huge white flashing light at each side. It vanished before you can blink. We also saw this on another nite approx 3weeks prior to the 6th of June 2023. The first time we saw it, it was hovering over a neighbor's house and the house was dwarfed in comparison. No sound just lights then gone . We saw it again tonight on June 6th approx 1030  pm while at our county fair when I was attempting to make a video of a ride. It was moving away very slowly and we just stood and watched the lights flashed slow and simultaneously. I tried to make a pic but it didn't show well on my phone.

6-12-23 Anchorage, AK 1:02AM, Triangle shaped craft – Anomalous movement (hovered), A green blue triangle hovered near my home by my truck for 25-30 seconds. Didn't make a sound but felt something inside my bones. I don't know how to say this but I felt something inside me and saw things. Went to my window and a green blueish triangle was above my truck maybe a 100 feet. Right above the trees. Left less than a minute after. But still have what I think they were trying to tell me.

6-12-23 Joshua Tree, CA 10:20PM, Cigar shaped craft – Anomalous movements, UAP seen less the 100ft off ground shaped like a cigar shaped harmonica. UAP approached our camp sight, coming up over the 40ft barrier of rocks; it seem to hover 20 plus ft above rocks for a 30 seconds or so, seeming to rotate or change direction, then is shot off faster then any known military aircraft. It had rectanglular segments that seem to create a belt around the craft of low glow white or gray lights, and two more distinct lights (that seemed to be headlights). The UAP was silent, and seemed to create a noise reaction because all the insects went silent during the sighting and then went back to normal as soon as UAP zipped off. The UAP appeared to be gray in color and devoid of any mechanical sound or sound at all.

6-13-23 Pleasant Lake, IN 10:57PM, Rectangle shaped craft, Low, slow flying dark gray rectangle with flashing lights headed north east over I-69. Checking horses before headed in for the night, my 9 year old son began screaming about  lights in the sky that were blinking. I went out of the barn and looked up to see a VERY slow and low flying rectangle shaped object. The lights along the bottom were in a line, bright LED white, and illuminating the bottom. Bottom appeared to be dark gray. Husband, a Navy Vet, came out because of the yelling and saw the object as it crossed over our property to the adjacent property and passed by/over a radio tower and continued north east over I-69 and towards Angola and the Indiana/Ohio/Michigan border. 100% WAS NOT STARLINK, we've seen that several times and this was way way way lower, brighter, and had body to it. Husband estimates it was flying at maybe 20,000 feet. The dogs and horses have been EXTREMELY agitated since the sighting, especially the broodmare that has a foal at her side.

6-14-23 Mesa, AZ 2:35PM, Rectangle shaped craft – low elevation, Black rectangular UAP sighted. My family and I were driving from St George, UT to Mesa, AZ. We were on the US-93 highway when I noticed a black rectangular object out of my front windshield flying over my car about 400-500 ft above it. It "flew" over my car and towards the right and I screamed out to my family to check out what it was. My two sons in the backseat saw it and tried to take a picture but they said it slightly expanded and then just disappeared. It made no noise as far as we know and had no markings or lights. There were no wings or propellers.

6-15-23 Southaven- Walls, MS 4:30AM, Triangle shaped craft, ilent brightly lit triangle object. I was drinking coffee on my deck at approx 4:30 am when I saw a triangular shaped craft slowly approaching from the east. Memphis airport is 12 miles east of my home so I’m used to seeing jets every morning. However this object had colored lights above and brightly lit white light covering the entire bottom. It made no noise at all. It was traveling directly over head at approximately 300 feet. It was very low. It took approximately 3 minutes from sighting to be out of my view. It did not stop and hover but kept going in a north east direction slowly. It was not huge triangle but about the size of a Cessna 10 seater. There was no sound at all.

6-22-23 New Castle, CO 10:18PM, Huge Cigar shaped craft, Ocean freighter size craft floated by – lasted 30 sec. Light in NW sky appeared as star then comet-like then looked as nuclear sub size silent craft moving 5k ft over north edge of subdivision. Lights were on constantly like a passenger ship on the ocean then started blinking as it was directly in front of me before moving out of sight behind leafy tree on right side of yard.

6-25-23 Manteca, CA 4:30AM, Disk shaped object, I was entering the yard and I saw a “disk” type of UFO, and it had ablueish light surrounding it, as soon as I seen it, gone. It was a disk, bright with blueish light surroundings, disappearing as soon as I was able to identify it, quickly gone, no track.

6-25-23 Riverside, RI 6:41PM, Cigar shaped craft, Noticed a stationary object above the tree line. Me and my boyfriend were sitting on a park bench on a clear and sunny day. I noticed across the bay a stationary object above the tree line. I pointed it out to him and we figured it was a plane because it was in a common flight path. We watched it for about a minute and it seemed to not move at all then moved in almost a straight line down towards the tree line. It stopped right above the tree line for another few seconds and then move down again out of view. The whole encounter seemed to have lasted 1-2 minutes. *Pic

6-25-23 Long Beach, CA 7:00PM, Cylinder shaped craft, Slow moving cylinder traveling over the harbor. It was nearing sunset and the moon was nearly full and out in the sky. I saw a cylinder-shaped craft cross in front of the moon and travel south towards Seal Beach, California…until it disappeared into the midair. There were no clouds in the sky. It was moving very slow. It had no lights flashing on it. It had no sound. It had a shadow on the bottom and was very shiny on top. It was right above Long Beach Harbour in, Long Beach, California.

NO MADAR DATA AFTER THIS POINT. But if someone wants to investigate a case I can get contact information.

6-28-23 Lamont, CA 12:47AM, Chevron shaped craft, Craft was flying around 200 ft off ground on the north side of highway 5. I was driving on the southbound lane heading towards LA on the 5 and witnessed to my left a chevron shaped craft the size of a Boeing 747 hovering about 1000 feet off the ground with around 10 bright lights on it. It
banked to the left, cut the lights, and it became clear that the craft was non reflective and seemingly black in color. It then dove towards the ground over a field, righted itself so it was parallel to the ground at around 50 ft off the ground and flew for around 1000 feet then lifted up and sped away disappearing. None of the plants or crops seemed to be
blowing or effected by the craft. It was much more agile that a regular plane and due to its size surprising that if it was military it would be allowed to cut its lights as well as fly that low by a highway. Many other cars seemingly reacted to it as well but I did not stop to chat with anyone as there were no immediate exits.

6-28-23 Fort Clark Springs, Brackettville, TX 3:48AM, Disc shaped craft, It was round disc shape and had lights that flashed simultaneously around the edge of the craft in red, yellow, and white. At 3:48 on the morning of Wednesday June 28, 2023 my partner and I noticed a series of blinking lights in the sky that made a definite form. It was a disc shape craft that was slowly coming down at a steady pace. The lights seemed to be flashing around the center or edge of the craft. The lights made it appear to be spinning. They were red, yellow, and white lights but on video the only lights visible were red and a few white. There were more lights that appeared to the naked eye that ran the whole length of the craft. As is slowly made its decent, my partner and I lost visual as it disappeared behind the tree line. There was no sound at all. Not even 5 seconds after losing visual the security for Fort Clark Springs and the local Kinney County Sheriff were headed down the road and passed us, straight to the direction of the craft. There was no further sighting or any other activity from law officials. *Nice drawing of craft attached.

6-28-23 Puyallup, WA 12:43PM, Sphere shaped craft, Saw silver sphere in sky with sun reflecting off of it super bright. It hung in the sky about 10 seconds, then veared off and disappear. Was driving and saw a silver sphere floating in the sky ~ 3 foot diameter. The sun was reflecting off of it, seemed to be floating or coming towards me about 10 seconds, and then quickly veared down and to the left behind a treeline. Once I got closer and passed the treeline I couldn't see/find it anywhere. I was on 512 driving towards the South Hill Mall exit about 3 miles away from it when I spotted it in the sky to the left of the freeway.

6-29-23 Oklahoma City, OK 3:45PM, 6 Disk shaped objects flying in V formation, I saw 1 V-shaped craft that flew in front of me. That was clearly 6 round orbs in V-formation. It looked like it came up out of the ground, a flying V. It turned right then left very fast. As it flew in front of me I could clearly see that it was 6 round flat saucers flying in a V formation. Then it was gone.

6-29-23 Wright City, MO 5:45PM, Triangle shaped crafts, 3 triangles hovering over I-70. I was driving eastbound on I-70 in a somewhat rural area. I was talking on the phone and idly looked up at the sky and noticed what looked like 3 perfectly triangular clouds. It was somewhat overcast / partly cloudy, and these 3 perfect triangles were in front of the overcast sky - the same color/texture as the clouds. However, what caught my eye was that they were perfectly sharp/straight, identical in size, and equal distance apart as well as not moving. I was so puzzled and kept blinking and trying to adjust my eyes because it made no sense to see such perfectly straight, sharply angled geometric clouds. It was impossible. The middle triangle began to sort of dim, almost like a flicker, and then all three of them disappeared instantly. They did not fly away, they did not blow away - these 3 triangles completely disappeared in the blink of an eye.  I was left feeling deeply confused, fearful, and in shock - it is hard to explain in words what I saw, because it is not consistent with anything I have ever seen before. Whatever those triangles were, they were not clouds. They were defying nature. My sister was on the phone with me the whole time I experienced it. Once I started to realize what they were, I pulled out my camera - I tried pushing a button to record but it would not record. I may have been too shaky and in shock to take my eyes off of it and get my phone recording, though - I wish I was able to capture evidence so I
wouldn’t feel so crazy.
