NMS SUMMARY - MAR 2025
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.

180° S, Angle of Elevation: 45, Closest Distance: 2-5mi, Estimated
Speed: 600mph+, Characteristics: Aura or haze around object,
Aircraft nearby, Animals reacted. I stepped outside since I heard a
faint yelling; once I was out I observed a giant bright blue orb
with a aura around it falling. A big blue orb with aura bright
enough to illuminate the surrounding sky around it the color light
to intense blue from it. It went in a straight direction, going
downwards towards the ocean and lighting up the sky and then
disappeared behind the tree line of the woods. Only one object was
observed as an orb or sphere with a blue glow/aura surrounding it
but with no comet tail. I was standing on my back porch looking
towards the sky and tree line. [Meteor]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 188085, Occurred: 2025-03-03 22:37 Local,
Reported: 2025-03-03 21:54 Pacific, Duration: 8 seconds, No of

Black, Estimated Size: Bigger than a helicopter but smaller than a
747, Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer: North, Angle of
Elevation: 84, Closest Distance: 300-1000 ft, Estimated Speed: The
speed of a passenger plane landing. A black triangle with 4 circles
on the bottom and no lights flew silently over the freeway slowly
moving north east. I was getting in my car after work. I noticed a
black triangle in the sky. It was right over my head and I watched
it until my view was obstructed. It has no lights. It was black and
hard to see against the night sky. There were circles on the
underside on each point of the triangle and one in the middle. They
looked brownish. I ran around to see past the tree and it was no
longer visible. [Not compelling]

dark blue, Estimated Size: 3 feet, Viewed From: Land, Direction from
Viewer: south, Angle of Elevation: 90, Closest Distance: Flew almost
directly overhead, Estimated Speed: 100mph. Rotating strange shaped
object flying a few hundred feet above the ground traveling maybe
100 plus miles per hour. Saw a rotating object coming towards me
from the south. As it got closer the shape became more clear. It
didn't resemble a craft or a drone. It had a strange angular
shape that looked like 2 pieces of metal stuck together off center
and spinning. Sunlight would reflect off it as it spun. No noise at
all as it passed over. No visible means of propulsion. Not an
aerodynamic shape at all. Speed, direction, altitude and spin rate
were consistent the whole time. Whatever it was, it was headed in
the general direction of the Montgomery County Air Park. My concern
is that it could hit another low flying aircraft in that vicinity. I
had my phone with me and it never crossed my mind to take a picture
or video. Hopefully someone else also saw it and had the presence of
mind to take a picture. {Not compelling]

Heard a very loud helicopter, immediately lifted the curtain to look
at the sky, to see an orb pursued by military helicopter. I Heard a
very loud/low helicopter outside, immediately lifted the curtain to
look at the sky, to see a smallish blue orb pursued by a presumed
military helicopter coming from the north, it passed over my house
headed south. The entire ordeal was quite low to the ground, the
sound of the helicopter shook the house. [Not compelling]

Closest Distance: 5000 ft, characteristics: Lights on object,
Aircraft nearby. V-shaped Craft over Philadelphia PA - March 3, 2025
~11:45 pm. It was a perfectly clear night and I could see with the
constellations (Orion, Dippers, Gemini, Cassiopeia, etc), and
planets (Jupiter and Mars) by eye. The moon was not visible from my
perspective (believe it was near the horizon). There where numerous
conventional aircraft in the sky (> 3). While walking my dog
in the backyard, I observed a V-shaped craft flying to the west in a
straight line and in complete silence. It was black in color, had 3
dim lights on each wing and the point of the V was the nose. I first
noticed the vehicle when it was directly above me and I tracked its
movement across the sky till it went out of view. (Unfortunately,
some trees blocked my view as it moved away). The speed of the craft
was fast enough to limit my view time to a few seconds, so
relatively quick. I estimate that it was flying at a low altitude
(the height that a helicopter or small plane might fly). Also of
note, due to its dark color and noiselessness, it was difficult to
observe, as if it were a camouflaged glider or giant bat. [Not

Closest Distance: 150 feet, Estimated Speed: 2 mph at first, then
speed of light type speed, Characteristics: Lights on object. I saw
2 triangle shaped craft moving very slowly 20 ft above the treetops.
A friend of mine was visiting at my house and stepped outside for a
few minutes. He began yelling for me to come see these two triangle
shaped crafts hovering above my backyard, about 20 feet above the
tree tops. They were moving ever so slowly and seem to go in and out
of each other. There was a bright white light that was constantly on
in the front of the craft and a blinking red light at the rear. They
hovered about a minute or two moving slowly and all of a sudden went
straight up in the air in an instant like it was going to speed of
light and completely disappeared. It really freaked me out.
[Interesting but no MADAR sites even close]

shock, upset we didn't record, but now I know you do not
think about it in the moment. Large, watched movements from far away
wondering what could stop and move and stop the way it was until it
was over us. Than we saw it clear as day - jaws dropped. I
don't know if cigar shape is exactly the best way to explain
it but almost a stretched massive egg. Couldn't see top.
Bottom was gray, dark and some lights. No one will ever believe us,
but I felt I needed to share. [CIR filed - cancelled - no data]

pursued to try and take a picture, object continued to turn in a
steep bank for more than 380deg until I in plane could no longer
keep up bank angle / speed. Object did not change altitude much and
I eventually lost sight. What was weird is that the object seemed to
know it was being observed and understood performance of plane was
no match for it's bank capability. Object was approximately
3-4ft in diameter but no lights. Bright colors. No indication on
garmin750 ADS/B of any targets. [No CI]
NUFORC UFO Sighting 188249, Occurred: 2025-03-11 07:20 Local,
Reported: 2025-03-11 19:00 Pacific, Duration: About 20 mins, No of

driving north on I-77 just south of Rock Hill, SC, Shape: Light,
Color: White, Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer: Northwest,
Angle of Elevation: 45, Characteristics: Lights on object, Aircraft
nearby. First appeared 2 white orbs, then there were 3, then there
were 5 total. As i was driving on I- 77 north in South Carolina this
morning, I first noticed 2 BRIGHT white orbs hovering in the sky
right before sunrise. A few minutes later another orb popped up. A
few more minutes later 2 more popped up which totaled 5 orbs. One of
them were flickering, one was a very dim, orangish color. They all
were hovering in the same area close together. I could tell these
were not planes or helicopters because i saw no Flashing FAA lights.
2 or 3 of these orbs would randomly disappear for about 10-20
seconds then reappear in a different spot. I only saw upward and
downward movement of these orbs. This lasted about 15-20 mins, the
last few minutes i witnessed this, the sun had already risen and
these lights were still very bright in the sky. Just after sunrise
all the lights disappered. I also noticed what i think were military
aircraft flying around these orbs. These other aircraft i could see
clearly, were dark in color and i saw no visble lights on those
aircraft. I recorded 3 seperate videos of these lights in the sky as
well. *Great videos. [Not compelling]

Closest Distance: 100ft, Estimated Speed: Unknown, Characteristics:
Aircraft nearby. Was driving in my car right past it no more then
100 ft above my car completely stationary with absolutely no
movement. Was driving in my car on 210 highway eastbound when I
noticed a strange black shape almost like a black trash bag floating
in the air about a mile down the road. As I drove closer to it still
heading north I came up almost right underneath it and it had not
moved a single inch completely stationary. That’s when I realized it
was something completely unusual as it had almost a black carbon
fiber appearance with hexagon kinda pattern on it but in a
completely unnatural oval circle shape. This object had no straight
edges, rivets or bolts and no type of propulsion or propellers. Then
as I passed it still heading north on 210 about a mile down is when
I saw two black hawk helicopters completely armed flying directly
towards the object. As I looked in my review nitro it appeared to
move to the southwest. I did a u turn further down the road but when
I came back it was gone and the helicopters were flying southwest
towards the Missouri River. [Not compelling]

strange way. I was testing my drones. And took it to 2000 feet. Out
of nowhere this white object was near my drone so I decided to stay
away cause I thought it was an aircraft or another drone. That’s
when it split in a line formation and then into a triangle around my
drone, and then they took off in a 70 degree angle one following the
other one and disappear lightning fast. I lost signal with my drone
never came back. [343 at Miami had too high mag readings]

from East/Southeast to the West/Northwest, Shape: Orb, Color:
Thermal: White hot, Estimated Size: Apparent size appears to be
fairly small, orb-like, Viewed From: Land, Direction from Viewer:
Eastern sky initially, observing towards rising full moon. Angle of
Elevation: 50, Closest Distance: Possibly below 10,000 feet in
altitude. Estimated Speed: 7,200-10,000 mph (2-5 miles per second),
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Left a trail. Using an
Sig Sauer CV25 handheld thermal optic observing high-altitude
commercial aircraft 20-30miles, detected a white hot orb flyby.
While observing two distant commercial aircraft at cruising
altitudes, testing the capabilities of the thermal optic, an
orb-like object suddenly entered the frame from the East/Southeast
and I immediately noticed and attempted to track the object from
right to left before it appeared to go beyond my line of sight (due
to a house roof in my view). The object moved so quickly the thermal
sensor barely detected the object initially and it rapidly appeared
as a crisp round shape and continued to be so until it was
obstructed from view. The night was completely quiet and still, no
sonic booms or aircraft engine noise whatsoever. The video footage
appears to show a slight aura trailing the object. Since it detects
IR spectrum only, this may indicate propulsion or could be an
artifact of a 50fps optical image processing capability. The Sig
thermal is rated as follows: 640x512 VGA 12um 50Hz thermal core with
20mK sensitivity. Air temperature was approximately 67F with clear
skies, visibility over 20 miles and humidity below 50% with no wind.

Emitted a pixelated shimmer of a opal but mermaid in color. Blinked
as if an eye closing twice. Lost time. It was about as big as a
turtle sand box almost oval in shape. Was twenty to thirty feet off
the ground. It emitted a pixelated shimmer like an (opal does) but
was a hue color of a mermaid tail (blueish green with whites-space
in between the other two colors if the makes since). That appeared
to blink like an eye at us twice. Then shot off instantly. For it
seemed as if time stood still. For our vehicle was no longer in
motion. For I remember the vehicle next to us being significantly
ahead of us after it flew off. Also the music turned off in the car
and returned after it flew off. But I can not recall the moment
before only after as for my wife. But I recall more detail than my
wife. Which immediately after it flew off i began to cry and every
time i think of it I cry and i don’t know why. I feel that it stems
from something more that i can’t describe. For as i write this
account I am shedding uncontrollable tears. My vehicle was facing

object, Aura or haze around object, Changed Color. Object moving
overhead in the shape of a boomerang/triangle - While watching the
lunar eclipse, four teenagers witnessed a triangle/boomerang-shaped
object in the sky above their home. They had difficulty determining
the distance of the object from the ground, as they had trouble
focusing their eyes on its exact range. The object appeared to be
"about the size of a car," and moved in silence at
a constant speed from south to north, disappearing behind a large
pine tree. Two of the witnesses claimed that the object made two
passes overhead, but that both times it moved from south to north.
Because they looked away to get the attention of the other two teens
with them, the first two witnesses cannot be sure if it was the same
object that looped around and did a second fly-by, or if it was two
separate objects travelling in the same direction (but not seen
together). The object traveled "point-first," with
a less defined/wavy tail. The witnesses had difficulty describing
the color of the craft, stating it had the properties of a jellyfish
that looked pink or blue. All agreed that it had an overall
pearlescent quality that made it difficult to describe in terms of a
color. They all noted that the object blocked out the stars behind
it, which helped them identify its basic shape. One witness said
that after it disappeared behind the pine tree, it appeared to
backtrack a little, as if peaking from behind the tree at them,
before disappearing entirely. *Drawings of craft. [Not compelling]

was a black triangle with about five lights on two sides and the
other one looked rectangular with white lights as well the
triangular Object was closest to me. It looked to be about 50 to
100‘ up. It was too large to be a drone, but too small to be an
airplane and flying way too low to be a plane as well. It was
absolutely silent and almost gliding effortlessly I watched it in
absolute awe. It looked like instead of slowly fading out as it flew
away, It almost just disappeared. The encounter lasted about a
minute. [Not compelling]

Three bright white lights - We were driving in our car on the I5
Southbound north of Coalinga when suddenly there was a bright object
that around the size of a large airplane that was alarmingly close
to the ground. We worried that it was a plane crash. It was going
toward the right side of the freeway like it was gonna crash, then
suddenly it changed directions going to the left and we screamed
thinking it was gonna crash into our car because it was so low to
the ground and going right into the direction of our car. The lights
were so bright and right in front of us. Then it was suddenly went
up and to other side of the car and the bright white lights dimmed
into a sort of blue. Then it turned into a singular bright light and
disappeared. *Pic [Data from nearby 326 riddled with spikes]

traveling at a slow rate of speed at approximately 3,000 ft. The
first time we saw it it continued on a straight path however, this
time it made two left turns and circled back around to the north
where we ended up losing sight of it. [Not compelling]

Reported: 2025-03-18 13:09 Pacific, Duration: 1 - 2 minutes, No of
observers: 1, Location: Loudon, NH, USA, Location details: School
Street approaching Oak Hill Rd., Shape: Chevron, Color: White,
Estimated Size: couldn't tell, Viewed From: Land, Direction from
Viewer: Heading West, Angle of Elevation: 44, Closest Distance:
hundred plus feet, Estimated Speed: approx. 5 MPH. I was driving
west on School st. just past the LES when I noticed a white shape
gliding steadily over the treeline S to N. Driving up School St at
around the Elementary School when I noticed a solid white shape
moving at a steady regular pace just above the treeline. Shaped like
a soft, sideways Chevron. the sky was cloudy grey/white but this
stood out because of its shape and color. No flapping so it wasn't a
bird, no skeletal structure so it was not a drone. Too low to be a
plane and not at all a helicopter (no sound, no wiry look to it). It
just moved at a steady pace over the treeline - South to North. I
followed it with my eyes until I reached the stop sign then lost
sight of it. It stuck out to me because of its color, shape,
movement and position over the trees. Not at all normal or usual for
the area. [MADAR alert case ???]

Springgreen blvd heading north, Shape: Unknown, Color: Unknown,
Estimated Size: Larger then car, Viewed From: Land, Direction from
Viewer: Direction you were heading (vehicle/front): North-northeast
(roughly 20°–30°). Object movement di, Angle of Elevation: 40,
Closest Distance: ~200ft, Estimated Speed: 10-20 mph,
Characteristics: Lights on object. Low flying, gliding smooth no
sound flashing lights about car size or larger. Description of the
Object: While driving to work, I observed a large, silent craft
flying low in the sky heading south/southwest — opposite my
direction. The object appeared to be car-sized or larger, with very
bright, pulsating white lights that were much brighter than those on
typical consumer drones. It moved steadily and smoothly, almost
gliding, with no audible engine or propeller noise whatsoever.
Appearance in Sky: The sky was still dark, but the object was
clearly visible due to its lights. The shape wasn’t perfectly clear,
but it had symmetrical light patterns, and the lights seemed to
pulse rather than blink. I took two photos with my phone — one of
which shows the object with twin light streaks, likely caused by
motion blur or the craft’s own movement. Sound: Completely silent.
No hum, buzz, or jet-like noise — just quiet flight. Other Notes:
I’ve ruled out the possibility of Starlink satellites, the ISS, or
any conventional aircraft. The object was too low, too bright, too
large, and too quiet for those explanations. It did not resemble any
drone I’m familiar with (I have seen DJI drones before — this was
much larger and brighter). I’ve included my photos and a screenshot
of the map location where the sighting occurred. *No pics attached

occurred at my residence, Shape: Orb, Color: Yellowish/white,
Estimated Size: Glowing orb 25-50 feet? Viewed From: Land, Direction
from Viewer: I was facing west and the object was heading east,
Angle of Elevation: 60, Closest Distance: Helicopter probably had
700-1000 distance from orb, Estimated Speed: 100mph+,
Characteristics: Emitted other objects, Aircraft nearby. Helicopter
was on pursuit of large glowing orb and potentially disk shaped
glowing objects. I was taking my dog outside to pee and I noticed a
bright light coming in my direction with a flashing beacon offset
from the bright light which I thought was a helicopter with a spot
light carrying cargo beneath the bright light. However what I
thought was the helicopter spotlight then mis aligned from the
helicopter rapidly, and took a sharp turn. At first I then thought
the bright orb was just an airplane, but I noticed the helicopter
behind it was at the same altitude (I confidently confirm it was a
helicopter chasing said objects because I could hear the rotors, and
I could see the beacons flashing off the helicopter) and because I
could now see the helicopter chasing the large glowing orb from a
side angle, I noticed a smaller light in front of the orb in perfect
sync with the large glowing orb. (neither the orb, nor the object in
front of the orb made a sound, only the helicopter giving chase made
noise) The helicopter continues to pursue the objects but suddenly,
the large orb just disappeared into thin air with the smaller light
heading in the same direction with the helicopter continuing to give
chase. *Video, Vid stills, and Drawing attached.

Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Left

Phenomenon Over Western Connecticut – March 22, 2025. On Saturday,
March 22, 2025, at approximately 11:00 PM, my child and I stepped
outside to let our dogs out, only to witness something truly
unexplainable in the southwest sky above Western Connecticut. A
large, bright blue light with a red aura and a green tail hovered in
the sky, moving in an unusual pattern. It seemed to shift from the
southwest sky to the western sky and back again, at times coming
closer to our position before retreating. The object’s movement was
unlike anything we had ever seen—hovering motionless at points, then
suddenly darting left and right across the sky with precision no
known aircraft should be capable of. Strange Characteristics: • The
light at times grew brighter as it moved toward us, as if reacting
to something. • As it traveled across the sky, it left a glowing
tail, adding to its eerie presence. • It remained in a stationary
hover for nearly 20 minutes before disappearing. We immediately
checked an astronomy app to rule out the possibility of a star,
planet, or satellite, but nothing in the sky matched what we had
just seen. After going inside to bring the dogs in, we returned
outside, only to find that the object had vanished without a trace.
Connections to Recent Sightings: I am aware of previous UFO reports
in Weston, Connecticut, including compelling footage captured by
local police officer Robert “Bobby” Klein, who recorded a similar
unidentified flying object near a reservoir. Given the growing
number of credible sightings in the region, I am curious if others
in my area also witnessed this phenomenon on the same night. If
anyone else saw this strange light on March 22 or has experienced
similar sightings, I’d love to hear about it. With increasing
reports of unexplained aerial activity in Connecticut, I can’t help
but wonder—what exactly is happening in our skies? *Pics / Video.

I was heading to work on I93 S at 5:30 am, a , smallish aircraft
came overhead flying S to N at a low altitude; It was right over the
highway; I looked up as it passed over my car and saw three very
large, flat, white lights approximately 5-6 feet in diameter on the
bottom of the craft. It didn't look like there was any
landing gear. It was quiet - maybe a small noise of an engine of
sorts. It was very odd; the lights didn't shine like a
spotlight but were in a triangle pattern on the bottom. It was dark
so I could not see a color; the lights were very white and glowing.
Other drivers had to have seen it too.

PM looking up and caught movement out of the corner of my eye. I
never would have seen it otherwise. When I looked right at it I
could definitely see it was flying over my house. At first is looked
like a giant transparent hang glider. There was white and
transparent outlines. But overall a sort of triangle shape. It was
completely quiet. I trained my eyes on it to be sure I was seeing
it. It seemed fairly low in the sky and quite large. Maybe the size
of a city block. There were no lights and I could see the sky
through it almost like cellophane. It circled slightly and climbed
straight up , leveled off heading north. I got frightened because I
was standing in the light watching it so I took my dog back in the
house. My dog didn't look up at it. I don't think he
even knew it was there. I didn't move super fast but seemed
to climb straight up at one point. It was headed north towards
Shaffer Butte the last I saw.

first obscured by trees and barn roof. Lights on the triangle shape
were a bright amber, the lights appeared to be straight and fanned
out from center of object but had no single center origin. It took a
long time (2 minutes) for the object to rise up into the air and the
then turn from its ascending position to a triangle horizontal to
the earth. The lights on the object changed from the amber color to
soft white and very light soft blue. and they were just tiny dots of
light of varied sizes. I stepped outside as it moved closer to my
home. It began to pick up speed and as it got closer, I could hear a
hum or feel a pulse from the object. As the object moved over the
street and was moving out of my sight, I quickly moved thru my house
to the front deck and went outside. I found the object moving NE at
a much quicker pace and now all I could see was an oblong box moving
away with two rows of white light for definition. Then it
disappeared.

Reported: 2025-03-27 18:38 Pacific, Duration: 5 minute from first
sight, No of observers: 1, Location: Mercer, PA, USA, Location
details: Started down the road on 258 on the Hermitage side then

Distance: Tree top level or 30 yards, Estimated Speed: Very slow

Animals reacted. Short sighting of UFO during the night only lasting
1 min four lights in the sky. I was driving at night on the road 258
heading towards the pinned location that was the intersection of 258
and fullingmill road. When I saw 4 floating lights in the sky all
appeared to be connected to the same craft all lights were white. I
thought it was my dash board lights reflecting onto my windshield.
When I turned onto fullingmill from 258 however the lights still
were there. I stopped my car and put it in park. I waited a couple
of seconds trying to get my lights to shut off. Then I put my
hazards on dumb yes but I was panicky. I then got out and started to
record it. I then realized my front camera doesn't work so I
stopped recording and switched to my selfie camera. I then recorded
it as it got closer to me. Then it disappeared right behind a cloud.
Keep in mind it's only tree top elevation. As it disappeared
a second or two passed then the wind picked up and started to whip
up into a frenzy. Meanwhile this entire time a whooshing sound was
coming from the craft. It wasn't a helicopter because I
didn't hear the chop of the blades. Also how close it was it
would've been blowing trees around as it came towards me if
it were a helicopter. The whooshing sound is like any I have ever
heard before it sounds like when you are on a walk and hear a car
coming. But it isn't the car engine it's the wind
rushing past the dar almost another example would be like wind
through a tree. This whooshing sound I just described amplified as
the object came over top of me directly. I got so scared because the
noise from the wind was gone and was replaced by the whooshing sound
I then got in my car and speed off I have a video but it is very
grainy, shaky and only about 6 seconds of it is actually footage
before I got scared and drove off.

Angle of Elevation: 45, Closest Distance: 10 to 15 feet, Estimated
Speed: 20 mph and then about 100+, Characteristics: Lights on
object, Made a sound. Saw orb heading away from the military base.
Traveling south on US. 11 with the the military post on my left. As
I approached the intersection of route 26, I saw a silver orb coming
from about the south east almost parallel to route 26. It was moving
slow. Best guess was about 20 MPH. At first I thought it was a
helicopter but it was too low – about 30 feet above the ground off
on the north side of route 26. I was stopped at the light and
watched it approach. It stopped about ten feet away. It was silver
with a slight orange glow from the bottom. It was about the size of
a small SUV. It emitted a low hum that seemed to vibrate the ground.
While it looked smooth, it seemed to rotate. It took off vertically
straight up to about 150 feet in an instant and then off along the
road – route 26, but unlike earlier it seemed to instantly buck to a
speed of about 100 MPH. 240 degrees is my guess. After it left, I
thought to roll down my window. There was a strange smell like burnt
copper but no odor of aviation fuel. Everything about it said not a
helicopter or a low flying military drone. *See another orb report

NUFORC UFO Sighting 188650, Occurred: 2025-03-30 21:26 Local,
Reported: 2025-03-31 14:20 Pacific, Duration: 8-10 seconds, No of
observers: 2, Location: Odessa, TX, USA, Location details:
(31.8812263, -102.3223260), Shape: Diamond, Color: Black/gray,
Estimated Size: 10 feet wide maybe 5 feet tall, Viewed From: Land,
Direction from Viewer: I was located on the WEST side and the ufo
was located EAST, Angle of Elevation: 50, Closest Distance: 150
feet, Estimated Speed: 70-80mph, Characteristics: Lights on object.
Speed of ufo and direction out of the ordinary - I was stopped at a
stoplight when the UFO came from the north heading south at a
consistently fast speed, but still slow enough to be able to see
great detail of the craft, I estimate about eight seconds of staring
at it as soon as i started driving forward after the light turned
green the UFO then sped up at a faster speed heading east. This
craft did look like a diamond shape with a flat circular on the top
with a pointed triangle down meanwhile, still seeing three different
verticals faces of the tangle from my view, In the center of the
craft it had a thick layer running horizontal that held
approximately 3-4 lights (from my view) also, these lights were not
rotating like the cartoons show they were just flashing, I don’t
recall the colors I believe it had red, green, and white. At the
bottom of the craft where all the vertical lines meet to make the
corner it seems to have had had a dimmed but bright light. The light
wasn’t too shiny where it can obstruct your view but you can
definitely tell there is some type of light with very thin beams as
if there was multiple small recess lights attached to it and
shinning. Also, this craft did not rotate at any point nor when it
sped up. This UFO was not too big. It looked like possibly the size
of a vehicle and the height it was flying was probably 150 feet not
very high at all.
