NMS from NUFORC &
UFO INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY NOV
2024
The following NMS summary of potential sightings of interest is a
monthly report filed by Jeremy Haslam, MADAR Project UFO Officer
based on data from
NUFORC printout (National UFO Reporting Center). The number of
entrys varies from 30-50 each month. This NMS list is then submitted
to the MADAR Operations Officer.. Although some MUFON entries might
have been listed, it is the job of each MUFON state group under
Project MATCH to provide MUFON listings of potential sightings
of interest. Therefore, Non MADAR Sightings (NMS) are entries where
MADAR DID NOT go into alert status, but the quality of the nearby
sighting suggests that MADAR records be checked for significant
spikes in the data short of trigger.
Fran Ridge, the MADAR Operations Officer, receives a copy of the
NMS, then goes over each entry and selects incidents that he feels a
scientist or serious researcher would consider as good supporting,
documented evidence of some type of advanced aerial vehicle. Using
an FI-5 Procedure Guide or Case Evaluation Worksheet he obtains the
latitude and longitude of the sighting in order to generate a
registration dot on the MADAR Map to see where the nearest MADAR
site is in relation to the event. Based on the quality of the
sighting and location he then looks at the magnetometer and compass
data for that event datae/time. This NMS shows the status of each
case. If anyone has a question regarding any entry pleased send me a
private email at
franridge42@gmail.com
CMS - A case investigated by MUFON has a case management system
number and investigation findings.
IDFE - Insufficient Data For Evaluation
NOL - indicates the MADAR site was Not On Line at the time of the
incident.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 183976, Occurred: 2024-11-01 17:18 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-10 15:50 Pacific, Duration: 4 seconds, No of
observers: 1, Location: Houston, TX, USA, Location details: Over my
property, Shape: Disk, Color: Silver, Estimated Size: maybe the size
of an airplane, Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer: Front
Facing, Angle of Elevation: 45, Closest Distance: well it was in the
sky, but maybe 2000 feet up in, Estimated Speed: 1000, I saw a disk
like craft, it was silver and then it was followed up by two black
flying objects that looked like bats. I was outside on my patio, and
I thought it was a plane. We live under a flight path, so we see
planes all the time. This was totally different, and as it came
closer I saw that it was a disk, shaped silver object, silent, not
like a jet, that frequent our area. As it came closer, I realized it
was a disk. I called out to my husband, he was upstairs, so it took
him a few seconds to get to the back yard. In the interim, I saw 2
black, bat-like objects following it. Within two or 3 seconds it
just disappeared. My skin crawled and it was scary. [Not compelling]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 183857, Occurred: 2024-11-01 20:00 Local –

minutes, No of observers: 1 – Military, Location: Douro- Dummer,
Ontario, Canada, Location details: Highway 28, Shape: Cone, Color:
Appears to be silver, Estimated Size: 20-50m radius, Viewed From:
Land, Direction from Viewer: To my right (west, travelling south),
Angle of Elevation: 50, Closest Distance: 50-200m, Estimated Speed:
150-200 km/hr, Characteristics: Lights on object. Saw UFO with
flashing ring lights on HW 28 - While travelling south through
Douro-Dummer on HW 28, my attention was drawn to a moving flashing
light, coming from a low altitude in the sky, breaking through the
tree line to my left of the road. It arose curiosity, but I didn’t
look too much into it and carried on driving. 2 minutes later, while
carrying on highway 28, the same bright flashing object appeared
directly on my right, at around 50-200m in the sky. It grabbed my
attention immediately as the light/lights were distracting. While
continuing to drive, I leaned forward to take view of the moving
object on an awkward angle to see clearly through my windshield.
After viewing the UFO 5+ times from multiple 2+ second flashes, I
was in complete shock and couldn’t believe what I was looking at. It
was so real and apparent what I was looking at. The UFO was made up
of a large flashing ring light with several smaller ring lights
inside. I scrambled for my phone to take a photo. Immediately once
having the camera aligned the UFO disappeared. Did not seem
coincidental. [Not compelling]

a chevron ufo here. It was much further away this time. We saw one
12/18/22 @ 12:40a.m. traveling west which was very low and huge and
moved much slower. [Not compelling]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 183840, Occurred: 2024-11-01 21:20 Local –
Approximate, Reported: 2024-11-04 09:43 Pacific, Duration: 35-45
min, No of observers: 2 - Pilot - Aviation Expert, Location:
Lakeview, OR, USA, Location details: From the cockpit at 36,000,
Shape: Light, Color: Pure White, Estimated Size: Don't know
- individual or whole..., Viewed From: Aircraft, direction from
Viewer: 300, Closest Distance: 90 miles to 100, Estimated Speed:
Mach 3, Characteristics: Lights on object. Bright white light moving
at very high speeds - The first sighting of the UAP happened the
night of November 1st on a commercial flight from SLC to MFR. We had
just leveled off at 36,000 feet when we noticed bright white lights
circling one another. The lights increased in speed and velocity
corresponding with the intensity of the light; the brighter the
light - the faster the objects moved. The objects moved
independently of one another; sometimes they would circle each
other, and other times they would move away from one another very
quickly. At one point, they formed a triangle. I did not notice
significant movement as a triangle, only the formation of a
triangle. It was hard to identify how many objects there were due to
the constant motion of the lights. The most I remember seeing at one
time was 5-6. During the sighting, the lights would appear and
disappear quickly. We watched them for around 45-50 min. The
apparent distance between us and the lights never changed. We were
traveling with a ground speed of around 400 kts. We asked ATC if
there was military activity in the sector; there was none reported.
When I filed a report with ATC the following morning they made it
clear there were no observable aircraft at the location we had
reported. The driver who took us from the airport to the hotel said
that we were the 3rd or 4th crew to have seen something and
mentioned it to him. I asked him when the last crew member reported
something to him; he said two weeks earlier. (NUFORC.org/sighting

Aircraft, Direction from Viewer: 12 o'clock, Angle of Elevation: 40,
Closest Distance: Unknown, Estimated Speed: N/A. Commercial aircraft
reported three triangular lights above their position at FL360. Four
aircraft operating at FL360 flying westbound in a position between
Omak, WA and Wenatchee, WA reported three bright lights coming from
in front of them at an approximate 40-degree vertical angle from
their location. Lights were described as triangular, coming apart,
then rejoining in a triangular shape. [IDFE]

Size: Unknown, Viewed From: Aircraft, Direction from Viewer:
Northwest, Angle of Elevation: 30, Closest Distance: Unknown,
Estimated Speed: Unknown, Characteristics: Lights on object.
Observed 3-5 white orbs in triangular formation moving around. My
captain and I were flying back from Spokane, WA to Hillsboro, OR at
approximately 36,000 feet on our medevac mission when we heard
chatter on the radio with ATC about a formation of 3-5 white lights
in a triangular formation. At least two other aircraft were heard on
the frequency as observing these objects. We observed these same
lights off to the northwest towards Seattle but they could have been
further away than that, even perhaps out over the ocean. One of the
orbs would remain stationary while the other two would move towards
it and dim then away and brighten again. We also told ATC that we
were seeing the same phenomena. [Not compelling]

there were 2 elongated neon blue lights running the length of what
seemed like the bottom of the craft it was descending rapidly I
thought to myself what is this it’s gonna crash right here it
abruptly stopped I then saw an orange perfect triangle at the back
of the blue lights there was a burst of orange yellow light almost
in a perfect circle the craft changed direction abruptly and
vanished at a rate of speed that I can’t even process with zero
sound whatsoever it seemed to be from my perception maybe a mile
away at most I am 100% percent certain this was technology way
beyond what I know of human capabilities. [No spikes and site 35 at

I was looking at the stars then i turning around and a weird shaped
object flew over around 60 ft over me and disappeared around 90 ft.
I was outside just looking at the stars and getting air to relax a
little bit more and i was looking at the little dipper and the big
dipper then i turned around and looked up to a weird shaped object I
was confused at first the it was around 10-30 feet over our
apartments then it went forward about 20-80ft and disappeared into
thin air. [I don't believe this story]

Location details: Saw the object approx 20 NM North of my
position,followed it visually overhead to South out of sight, Shape:
Oval, Color: bright white, Estimated Size: 60ft in diameter, Viewed
From: Land, Direction from Viewer: 010, Angle of Elevation: 30,
Closest Distance: 6NM, Estimated Speed: 500-600kts. Saw object above
a SWA flight. It turned to follow A/C for 3-4 secs, then transited
South. some heading changes. very fast. I was in my hottub, gazing
North. I watched a SWA flight heading NE, no cons, but easily
identifiable. I noticed a white orb a little North and above the SWA
aircraft. The Orb immediately turned hard left to follow the
aircraft and maintained a NE heading for about 5 seconds. then it
turned impossibly fast back to a heading to overfly my position,
making small heading changes, like 10-20 degrees, both right and
left. It overflew me and kept going until I lost sight. It was
moving very quickly. Winds aloft here are 12000 - 310 at 33kts,
18000 300 at 28kts, then shift more westerly and faster as you get
into the jet stream. To me, this eliminates the possibility of a
balloon, because of the intentional turns and no easterly drift with
the winds. I am a retired Navy Commander, with over 3000hrs in fast
jets. [151 at Rio Rancho was NOL]

Estimated Speed: Too fast never seen anything move this fast.
Metallic circular with a bulge at the top similar to a jetson mobile
- Me and a friend of mine were driving down route 24 southbound just
passed the brockton exit. Between brockton and bridgewater. There is
tall trees on edges of the highway. Something flew over the tree
tops about 100ft over the treetops high at first glance i yell what
the heck is that. Planes aren't that low unless crash so i
thought that but watched the craft flying at an insane rate of speed
from right to left and then it just disappeared into no where with
no trace. Continued driving for 2 minutes in silence just wondering
what the heck i saw. Tried to think in my head what it
could've been but I've seen shooting stars they
leave a glare behind them. And this was directly in front of us
close and its height was close. So 2 minutes i freak out and ask my
friend WTF did you see. He said the exact samething to me i
witnessed out loud and i said thank god because i cant explain it.
We pulled over looked at low planes possibly landing in boston the
speed is unmatched not even close. There was no sound no wind on
trees from it. No lights on it at all. It Was a clear night.

Estimated Speed: Faster than a commercial airplane by 4-5 times.
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object. Large, Reflective
Rectangle - Saw a strange Rectangle in the sky out of the corner of
my eyes while looking up at the stars. I observed it long enough to
see it's shape, but the center of the rectangle seemed to be
cloaked with the night sky. I saw it for about 1-2 seconds, staying
at a consistent speed before the object seemed to vanish from my
sight. Almost as if it had "walked" behind a wall.
The object made no noise that I could hear, due to the highway
directly behind where I live. The object had no visible lights that
I could see. [Too brief]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 184118, Occurred: 2024-11-10 05:50 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-14 07:45 Pacific, Duration: 15-30 seconds, No of
observers: 1, Location: Caledonia, ON, Canada, Shape: Triangle,
Color: grey / off-white, Estimated Size: My guess is slightly larger
than a Cessna Skyhawk, Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer:
SSE, Angle of Elevation: 38, Closest Distance: 500m to 1km approx.
Estimated Speed: Unknown. Walking to my car, morning dark &
admiring stars, see a low flying craft silently moving southwest;
est. elevation 500-800 ft. I was walking to my car in the early
morning hours of Sunday Nov. 10 2024, around 5:50am. The sun had not
yet come up, and I like admiring the stars when the sky is clear. I
was looking in the southern sky over the Canadian Tire/Notre Dame
Catholic Elementary school in Caledonia, which is also the direction
I was walking. As I was walking and looking up, I saw what I can
only describe as a strange craft silently moving WSW over Canadian
Tire/Notre Dame. The sky was dark, so I rubbed my eyes a few times
to be sure I was seeing clearly (I do not wear glasses and generally
have good eyesight). It appeared akin to a paper-airplane triangular
shape and moved in a seemingly straight line at a moderately quick
pace, similar in speed to a single-engine plane. It didn't
seem too high in the sky; my uninformed best guess would be between
500-800 ft above ground level. Though difficult to be certain, it
seemed to have a darker off-white/grey colour with maybe even a hint
of dirty yellow or brown mixed in. I heard no noise from the UAP; I
remember the morning being very quiet, except for the sound of
highway 6 a few kilometres away. It was the only craft I saw, and
after around 15-30 seconds, it blended into the sky and was beyond
what my eye could observe. There appeared to be no lights on it. I
am a rational-yet-open-minded man who is also a husband and father,
with a stable life, job, and income. I am in good health mentally
and physically, and have always had keen eyesight with no glasses or
contacts. [Not that compelling]

from me, it expanded then contracted like it was breathing then flew
off. It was about 20 minutes before dark. My wife and brother were
near a fishing spot in rural Kentucky on the river. We heard a high
pitched warbling noise and then a sphere about 7 feet in diameter
came from behind the tree line. It was moving slowly. It had a
silver sheen to it but at certain time it looked almost transparent
with a very faint blue glow in the center about the same brightness
as a cellphone flashlight. It moved over the river about 20 feet
above it . It moved closer to us then lowered about another 5 feet
and it began to expand and then contracted almost like it was
breathing. It did this for about 15 seconds then moved straight up
about 10 feet and flew off toward the sunset. Extremely bizarre and
unsettling. [Difficult to "sell" this a scientist, but definitely
high-strangeness]

afterwards, Animals reacted. It flew straight across the sky, then
very quickly backwards, then shot straight forward past viewpoint
while morphing in shape. The sky was very clear, allowing me to see.
Suddenly, a dark grey object came into view. The crickets stopped
chirping. From my perspective, it appeared to be very large. There
were small, blue blinking lights, perhaps four or five. The aircraft
shot straight forward, then slowly backed up once it was directly
above me, and very quickly flew forward once more, faster than any
plane I have ever seen. There was only one object. As it flew, it
seemed to be changing shape. No specific shapes in particular, just
like fluid. It did not swerve or sway, it flew straight. As it flew,
I heard a quiet “zip” noise, as if it it was tearing through the
air. *Drawing. [Too brief]

and heard a helicopter that sounded very low approaching. As it got
closer and I saw it relatively low overhead I noticed what looked
like a small ball of light in front of it, almost as if the
helicopter was chasing it. As it was directly overhead and very low,
the ball split into multiple balls of light and changed from white
to orange and continued across the sky. I took a screenshot of the
flight radar app and it showed it was a Blackhawk helicopter flying
at approximately 700ft. I’ve included an image of flight radar of
the helicopter that it showed as the one that flew overhead. [Not

Estimated Speed: 10-20 mph it wasnt that fast, Characteristics:
Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Changed Color. I
watched an almost T- or cross-shaped craft hover at first above
town. After locking eyes with it, it seemed to
"pulse" or vibrate. So, I was taking the garbage
out. I could've thrown my trash away upstairs, but I didn’t
want it to stink up our kitchen. So, without thinking twice, I ran
outside. When I got outside, it was dark, which is normal in our
area because of the lack of any streetlights. Normally, because of
this, if there is a full moon, we get some light—not a bunch, but
enough to make out something in front of or around you. After
throwing the trash away, I noticed that instead of the normal color
of light projected from the moon (the white or bright gray we see),
I noticed an almost emerald-green color. It was out of the norm, but
nothing crazy. Because of blood moons, etc., I figured it was just
the moon in a way I’d never seen before. So, I looked up. I still
don’t know why I didn’t just go inside, but I figured I’d glance up.
No harm, no foul—at least, that’s what I figured. Until I noticed an
enormous T- or cross- shaped figure. At first, I felt a rush of
chills through my body, as if I had seen the Lord Himself—similar to
how it feels to be jump-scared. I stood there at the base of the
driveway, staring in absolute awe. It made absolutely no noise. In
fact, it seemed as if, when I trained my eyes on the thing, I
couldn’t hear anything else. So, I had nothing but my eyes. I
would’ve gotten my phone, but I was afraid it would leave before I
could come back outside. So, I stood in disbelief. The craft was at
least 80, maybe 90, feet above my head and the town. It felt like it
was going to descend and cover the town. The craft sat
there—stagnant, resembling a player lagging online. The thing was
just suspended in the air, like it was being held from a string. I
noticed the center of the cross had a bright green light or glow,
and at each end of the cross were a bunch of smaller orange, maybe
yellow, lights. Still standing there, I wouldn’t move. I wanted to
see how this thing would cloak itself. After about 20 minutes of
nothing, my ears popped, similarly to how they pop if you’re
submerged under a large body of water. At that moment, I realized I
hadn’t heard anything the entire time I had been standing there.

back in a tear shape. The sky was blue, and the sighting was so
clear that I could see the blue sky between the craft and the aroura
that was surrounding and trailing it. I brushed it off and said to
myself it was a rocket or some form of test craft. After a day or so
I began to question "over the NYC area"? I looked
for UFO sightings on internet for the day and area and learned that
there were other UFO sightings on that day in the NY area. [Possible

NUFORC UFO Sighting 184199, Occurred: 2024-11-16 10:00 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-16 08:16 Pacific, Duration: 3-4 minutes, No of
observers: 1, Location: Boston, MA, USA, Location details: Over
Boston East over water, Shape: Sphere, Color: White, Estimated Size:
size of football field, Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer:
East, Angle of Elevation: 45, Closest Distance: 5-7 miles approx.,
Estimated Speed: 700-800 mph, Characteristics: Aura or haze around
object. Watched a round object traverse above the Logan Airport -
Noticed what appeared to be a very large white ball leaving no
contrails and in proportion to other overpassing jets the object was
traveling maybe 5 times faster than any other in so much as it left
compressed vapor signatures above it and below it. The object was
temporarily blocked by foliage then reappeared and appeared to
shimmer and it flashed compression streaks again then disappeared.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 184213, Occurred: 2024-11-16 15:55 Local –
Approximate, Reported: 2024-11-16 15:17 Pacific, Duration: About 5
minutes, No of observers: 2, Location: Pittston, ME, USA, Location
details: The craft seemed to hover right next to the Eastern River.
Shape: Oval, Color: It's too dark 2 tell, Estimated Size:
Between the size of 1-2 school busses maybe? Viewed From: Land,
Direction from Viewer: It was about north-northwest of where I was
standing, Angle of Elevation: 45, Closest Distance: between 100-200
feet (2 telephone pole distances), Estimated Speed: About 10x as
fast as a plane taking off, Characteristics: Lights on object. The
craft hovered for about 5 minutes with flashing lights, then shot up
diagonally into the sky really fast - there was no sound @ all. This
is the 2nd night in a row we saw a round/oval looking craft hovering
around dusk (between 3:30 - 4pm-ish EST) with flashing lights. It
was in the EXACT same spot as yesterday over the Eastern River. We
thought it was an airplane, but there was no sound (planes echo all
through this area whenever one passes overhead, so we thought it was
odd that there wasn't any sound at all). It hovered for
around 5 minutes (or at least that is how long we observed it).
Suddenly, it was no longer in its spot and we saw a light speed off
higher into the sky at a diagonal at super fast speeds! Again, there
was no sound, and before we knew it it was gone. [Not compelling]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 184371, Occurred: 2024-11-18 12:36 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-20 11:00 Pacific, Duration: iPhone photo. did not
see, No of observers: 1, Location: Charleston, SC, USA, Location
details: we were traveling from Mt Pleasant to Charleston on the 1st
span on the bridge. Shape: Orb, Color: brown, Estimated Size: 10-15
ft?, Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer: the object was west
of us. Angle of Elevation: 67, Closest Distance: 400 yards,
Estimated Speed: unknown, Characteristics: Aura or haze around
object. The object was directly above the Bridge, a brown football
shape with a fuzzy out of focus around it. We were heading to
Charleston, I was driving, my wife was saying how great the new
Bridge was and took a photo of the 1st span. We didn't see
it till we looked at the photo later. It is directly above the
Bridge and appears to following an Arleigh Burke class guided
missile destroyer, that had just gone under the bridge. Headed east,
out of Charleston Harbor. *Pic [Was not observed]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 184315, Occurred: 2024-11-18 19:26 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-18 20:02 Pacific, Duration: 30 seconds, No of
observers: 20, Location: Memphis, TN, USA, Location details: Crossed
over 240/55 N interstate coming from E to W then turned. Shape:
Rectangle, Color: Body was grey, Estimated Size: Large van or bus,
Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer: North/northeast, Angle of
Elevation: 65, Closest Distance: When it was overhead, perhaps 250ft
up, Estimated Speed: Faster than a helicopter, slower than airplane,
Characteristics: Lights on object. Weird object with red and white
lights with unusual maneuvers - I was on my way home from work
traveling up the expressway northwards, in the center of town, near
the medical district. It was very windy and sprinkling rain a little
bit. From the east, moving towards the west, and decelerating
quickly, bouncing, turning, then hovering, I saw an object with
solid red lights at its rear and asymmetrically flashing white
lights in the front. Instantly I tried to rationalize that it was a
plane, but it was not. A plane could not move in the twisting and
bouncing way this thing did. So next, I thought maybe it was a
helicopter, but it wasn’t. The movement was too weird. Just as I
recognized the degree of oddity, it was almost directly overhead, so
I looked straight up at it (almost causing a wreck.) This is when I
saw that the shape of the actual object (not just the lights) was
rectangular with perfect right angle corners. Now I was scared. As
soon as I got off the expressway (less than 2 minutes later) I
opened my flight radar app to see if there were any helicopters or
planes in the air near my location. There were NONE. Not even any
close by, at all. Even if there possibly could be rectangular
helicopters flying over Memphis in extreme wind storms, it would be
impossible for them to not register in my air traffic flight app.
This was a legitimate UFO. [No spikes at Eads node 32 but CIR

NUFORC UFO Sighting 184383, Occurred: 2024-11-18 20:01 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-20 18:53 Pacific, Duration: 7:53 PM to approx 8:30
PM, No of observers: 1, Location: Clare, MI, USA, Location details:
In a rural Amish community, surrounded by cornfields. Shape:
Changing, Color: Multiple colors, Estimated Size: Small-medium,
Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer: North, Angle of Elevation:
45, Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object,
Emitted other objects, Changed Color, Electrical or magnetic
effects, Missing Time, Animals reacted. Captured a triangular craft
with neon green lights & hovering telapathic color changing
orb (disco ball) in a rural Michigan cornfield. While in a remote
rural area of Michigan near an Amish community, I saw a triangular
craft with two blinking green lights on its sides and one steady
glowing neon green light at the tip. The craft appeared to move
slowly above me, as if allowing me to take photos and video before
speeding up and disappearing. Minutes after, I witnessed a glowing,
color-changing orb resembling a “disco ball” (opposite side of the
sky from triangular one) hovering in place and then slowly moving
toward me. The encounter caused feelings of excitement, fear, and
dizziness that lasted approx 45 minutes. The orb seemingly emitted a
strong energetic presence and I felt it was “telepathic”. The area
is surrounded by open cornfields, and there was little to no sound
or conventional aircraft present during the sighting. The dog in the
area also vanished during the event and did not return. I was able
to capture photos and videos of each one. I want to note that I have
seen other phenomena often since April 2021 and have had other
strange contact experiences during that time. However, this
particular encounter stood out to me as something I felt compelled
to share. {Not good sighting]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 184414, Occurred: 2024-11-21 18:00 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-21 18:09 Pacific, Duration: 5 minutes, No of
observers: 1, Location: Bearden, OK, USA, Location details: Along
Highway 27 just south of Okemah, Shape: Formation, Color: White,
red, Estimated Size: Maybe 50 to 75 feet, Viewed From: Land,
Direction from Viewer: North at first, then beside me, then south,
Angle of Elevation: 61, Closest Distance: 200 ft, Estimated Speed:
Not sure, Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around
object. I thought I was seeing the fastest helicopter or airplane
ever until it showed up just beside me and hovered then went south
then gone. White and red lights flying rapidly across sky. Then
stationary and I thought I had seen wrong and it was just a tower.
Suddenly it was at almost eye level just diagonally from me as I was
driving. It seemed to stay at my speed/beside me for a few seconds
and then went south of me quickly. When I looked in my rear view
mirror it was gone. [Not compelling]

34°55'44"N 78°59'29"W, Shape:
Chevron, Color: Dark- unknown, Estimated Size: Unknown, Viewed From:
Land, Direction from Viewer: North west, Angle of Elevation: 45,
Closest Distance: Unknown, Estimated Speed: Slower than a train,
Characteristics: Lights on object. Driving back to my house and saw
three lights in the shape of a Chevron flying really low and slow
then another came after that one. On Thursday, November 21, 2024 at
approximately 7:15 PM I was driving north Northwest on W. Railroad
St. in Parkton, North Carolina. I was less than a mile from an
underpass when something bright in the sky caught my attention so I
looked and initially blew it off, thinking it was just a plane, but
then I noticed how slow it was flying and how low to the ground it
was. Then how slow it was going, was put into perspective when a
train passed by on the train tracks next to me and was going
significantly faster than what was in the sky. There were three
lights in the formation of a Chevron. Once it passed about 20
seconds later, another one came. Same thing three lights in the
shape of a Chevron. I quickly pulled out my phone and captured that
one. As it was flying, it disappeared into the tree line and I lost
sight of it. As I was watching them, I was alone on the street
without anyone or any car in sight. *Pic / Vid [Not compelling]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 184498, Occurred: 2024-11-23 22:17 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-24 21:08 Pacific, Duration: 40 minutes, No of
observers: 2, Location: New York, NY, USA, Shape: Orb, Color: Amber,
Estimated Size: largest orb about 10 ft smaller orbs 5 feet, Viewed
From: Land, Direction from Viewer: our compass direction was west.
West 42nd Street runs east-west and we were facing 11th Ave west,
Angle of Elevation: 80, Closest Distance: 3500-4500 feet, Estimated
Speed: 27 mph. Fleet of Amber orbs above the Hudson River in New
York City. Here's a more formal write-up of your UFO
sighting: On a recent clear night, approximately 45 degrees
Fahrenheit, my mother and I observed multiple flying objects from
the Hudson River pier, located at 12th Avenue and West 42nd Street,
NYC 10036. Our interest in this phenomenon was sparked by previous
sightings through the window of our high-rise apartment in
Manhattan. As we walked towards the pier, we initially spotted one
large, bright amber orb. Upon further observation, we noticed that
it was accompanied by several smaller orbs, creating a fleet of
eight objects in total. These orbs moved together and then
separated, with some traveling towards New Jersey, eventually
becoming invisible to us. However, the spectacle did not end there.
We witnessed more amber orbs appearing in various directions, both
small and large, at an estimated altitude of 1500 feet.
Interestingly, we were the only individuals present who seemed to
notice this extraordinary sight. The smaller orbs displayed unique
behavior, appearing suddenly and then pulsating. The larger orb
seemed to act as a "mothership," with smaller orbs
flanking it. Upon closer examination, the shape of these orbs seemed
to shift and change, as depicted in a photograph I captured of one
of the brightest orbs flying above a building at the corner of 42nd
Street and 12th Avenue, near the Hudson River. *Pic/Vid [Drones]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 184647, Occurred: 2024-11-24 19:15 Local –
Approximate, Reported: 2024-12-01 07:18 Pacific, Duration: 5
seconds, No of observers: 2, Location: Fort Walton Beach, FL, USA,
Location details: We were standing on Okaloosa Island Pier about
where the ocean meets the shore. Shape: Triangle, Color: Black,
Estimated Size: Very large, Viewed From: Land, Direction from
Viewer: East, Angle of Elevation: 50, Closest Distance: Not sure,
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object. Very large, pitch
black, silent, triangular(?) object flew overhead and disappeared
from sight. We were on Okaloosa Island pier to see if we could maybe
see some sea life as we had seen some earlier in the day. My
companion said they saw someone on the beach with a red light
pointed at the sky, then they said "what is that, do you
see it?" and pointed to the sky to the east of the pier. I
looked that way I saw a large dark object moving overhead. Not 100%
sure of shape (companion said trapezoidal), but I feel it had a flat
bottom and I was seeing it from an angle. It blocked out a lot of
the stars from my view for a few seconds as it moved over us. It was
matte black. Darker than the night sky. It almost filled my whole
field of view. It was completely silent and seemed to be moving
fast. We only saw it for a few seconds and it disappeared in what
seemed like a blink. [Too brief]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 184616, Occurred: 2024-11-29 17:30 Local,
Reported: 2024-11-30 09:39 Pacific, Duration: 15-20 minutes, No of

50-100 feet west of Hwy 101 near Healdsburg CA, Shape: Unknown,
Color: White, green, red, Estimated Size: 25-50 feet, Viewed From:
Land, Direction from Viewer: West, Angle of Elevation: 45, Closest
Distance: 225feet, characteristics: Lights on object. 50-100 feet
west of highway 101, 100-200 feet in the air, bus sized or larger
craft. Bright central light, green and red light to sides. I saw
this flying object last night driving northbound on 101 in NorCal.
11/29/24 17:20-17:35 near Healdsburg CA. There were people pulled
over looking at it it was probably 1-200 feet in the air but it was
the size of a bus. I should have pulled over and taken pictures of
it, but at first I thought it was a drone. It was just chilling and
hovering looking over the valley. I keep going over the silhouette
of the chassis in my head and it just didn't make sense that
it was a drone. So weird. It was a huge bright light between a red
and a green light on either side. I was CLOSE to this thing, the
bright light at the center looked like a ball of plasma and I
couldn't hear anything or see any air disturbance off the
edge of the highway to indicate downward air pressure from a
conventional turboshaft engine. The silhouette of the craft looked
like it was the fuselage of a plane, but instead of a radar cone at
the tip was that big bright ball of plasma, it had a red light on
the left wing and a green light on the right wing. [Worth checking]

Aura or haze around object, Emitted beams. There was a glowing light
coming into my window and all of a sudden I see a bunch of colors
coming from a unidentified spacecraft. There was one object seen,
and it was saw moving back-and-forth. Only one observer saw it, but
it was glowing, red, green, and blue almost a yellow tint as well.
The observer was sitting in a bedroom at the top floor and saw funny
lights coming outside in the sky.[Not compelling]
