Subject: UFO Sighting - Location:  Onondaga NY. Date:  01/05/06  Time: 10:30 PM  Witnesses: 2  Number Of Objects: 1 
Object's Shape:   Disc   Additional Information:  Seen while traveling on I-81 North at night.  The object had lights and changed color

Event Description:

My girlfriend and I were traveling on Interstate 81 North at night. While passing through Onondaga between Binghamton, NY and 
Syracuse, NY I saw a strange object approaching from far away. I though the object was strange because It had Five red lights on the 
bottom of it and it was traveling at an incredible rate. As I yelled WHAT THE F#*K IS THAT, my girlfriend saw it change direction and 
dart off into the night sky with complete silence. The strange thing was that our trip usually takes five and a half hours, during this trip
 it took only four. We had the cruse control set the whole time and cannot explain the loss for time.

Subject: UFO Sighting - Location: Brooklyn Date: 12/22/06 Time: 5.40 AM Witnesses: 1 Number Of Objects: 2 Object's Shape: Circle Additional Information: Object had an aura or haze around it. Object became transparent
Event Description:

I was sitting in my living room watching the 5 o’clock morning news when I heard a helicopter very close to the building.

I looked out of my first floor window, wondering why it was there for so long so I said to myself go up on the roof. 
As I got to the roof the helicopter moved away as I got there.

As I was looking, I started thinking about god. Just then I saw a bright light moving very quickly in the sky, dipping in and out of the 
stars, it did two moves, not like a plane or a helicopter or a jet and disappeared.

The light got real bright, then very dim then disappeared without blinking or anything. 
It seemed like it was moving away from something.

That was the third time I have seen something like that while living in Brooklyn for two years now. 
I’ve never seen it in Florida, the Bronx or Washington.

It was truly amazing. Next to the UFO before it moved was a glowing light that got brighter and moved in a circle as the other got 
further away.

Im buying a telescope TODAY!

Reported By: Name not given. Queens, New York City. December 17, 2006
Subject: UFO Sighting - Location: Queens, New York City . Date: 1996 – 99 Time: AM Witnesses: 4 plus Number Of Objects: 100 Object's Shape: Disc Additional Information: Objects hovered and witness has had paranormal incidents since
Event Description:

Im sorry that I cant give a specific date.

 I wrote the information down but lost it. I used to work for Memorial Sloan Kettering cancer center in New York up until 1999, 
so when the event happened it was between the time line stated. 

I worked in the office part the same building governor Pataki works out of, not far from the UN..

Now all I remember was I had to catch the shuttle that transports employees between the office building and the hospital. 
Before I went to catch the shuttle which was between 9am and 10am,

I was talking to a fellow associate, about life and how the world is changing and other things of that nature. 
Last thing I said, before I left was a question. I asked him if something comes from nothing, what does nothing come from, 
for nothing is a substance unto itself.

He looked at me and shrugged his head and smiled.

 So after that I went down to catch my shuttle. Now I’m waiting for my ride and I look up at the sky and I start seeing silver disks 
just drop down at a distance and start hovering.

At first there where like 15-20 and I’m stating to bug out.

A man in a grey suit comes across the street and I ask him if he sees what I see, he looks up real quick and says that they are 
helicopters and rushes off.

Now (I) remind you these aircrafts were silver disks popping out of nowhere hovering silently. This was the first witness.

Now the shuttle comes (and) I get on and we’re driving we make a turn and now I see at least 75-100

Now I’m afraid.

I ask the shuttle bus driver if he sees what I’m seeing he says yes.

Now we’re both worried because we think the world is going to end. This is the second witness.

As we stop at a red light, a car pulls along side of us with two passengers and they are on cell phones looking up. 
I’m standing next to the shuttle driver and reach over to the window and ask “What’s going on?”.

They shook they're heads that they didn't know. They are the third and fourth witnesses. The light turns green and we continue our 
ride to the hospital, I’m still looking up and one of the disks follow the shuttle for a little while then stops.

As we start getting closer to the hospital I lose sight of them.

This is the fifth and last most amazing sighting that I have seen in my life. If anyone reads this and has seen what I have seen, 
have footage, or photos please come forward. It has taken me a few years to finally tell this and I cant explain why. 
I have not seen nor dreamed anything paranormal since.

Reported By: Karl. H. - Apalachin, NY. December 7 2006. date of occurrence 2000 or 2001
Subject: UFO Sighting - Location: Apalachin, New York state Date: 2000.2001 Witnesses: 1 Number Of Objects: 1 Object's Shape: Sphere Additional Information: There is a Public Airfield in the area, There is a body of water in the area, Object had lights, Aura or Haze around it
Event Description:

It was in the evening, summer months of 2000 or 2001. Around 10:00 PM approx., I was facing due west in front of my house, suddenly appearing directly in front of me was , coming from the very edge of the western horizon, a bright red sphere with an aura around it traveling at astounding speed.

It traveled in a straight path that seemed to follow the curvature of the earth, it was around 5 times the size of a normal star in the sky.

Following a straight path it flew directly towards the eastern horizon of the sky and vanished at the eastern horizon just as quick as I could count one-two.
it was that fast.
There seemed to be an absence of depth perception as I watched it in the sky. I could not tell if this object was 100 feet from me or 100 miles from me. It was indescribable.
I felt its presence and it was a terrifying experience.
I am having some profound psychic experiences since this event that I prefer not to discuss, they are happening repeatedly. I am the only witness from my area as far as I know other than one aircraft that was in the vicinity.
This incident happened so fast even if you had a
camera you would have missed the whole thing by the time you even got the object in the viewfinder.

I swear the red sphere was aware of me somehow and appeared to show itself to me.
I am having memory loss for unknown reason and cant seem to remember the exact date and time of this incident.

Reported By: Ortiz - Bronx, New York - November 15, 2006

Subject: UFO Sighting - Location: Bronx, New York - Date: Mid 1990's - Time: 4:00 PM -

Witnesses: 2 - Number Of Objects: 1 - Object's Shape: Sphere/Ball - Object had an Aura or Haze around it - There is a Public Airfield in the area

Event Description:

I know it sounds crazy for me to post this after so many years, but I feel maybe others will come forward and validate what myself and best friend seen that day.

It was the mid 90’s I say. I believe it was spring or summer because it was very sunny out this day.

Myself and my best friend were driving on the Bruckner Expressway in the Bronx, it is a heavy traffic way in the Bronx.

She was driving and we were talking about something I can't remember what. I was focused on what I thought was a plane in the sky. I could not take my eyes off the object because I remember thinking it was flying really high. So much so, I could not make out the shape at all and I remember thinking the thing must be chrome it was shining so bright in the sun.

I watched it for about a minute or so then I realized it was not moving at all. It was us driving that made it look to move. It was just kind of hanging there. I still believed it had to be some kind of plane; no helicopter could have shined so bright that high and still looked so round . It was like a perfect round light.

Before I could ask my friend what she thought it was, the object did what I could only call a jump side to side, them shot straight up past the clouds and what I have to say was space. The were almost no clouds out and the few that were, lay in the far distance. They helped me judge distance and position of the object.

I still believed maybe I was wrong and it was some kind of optical illusion of some kind, but as soon as I asked her “Did you see that?"She said “What, the ball of light?" It was hanging there not moving, then shot right into space! Holy &%#$ I thought I was seeing things!

Not myself or her have come up with any idea of what it could have been.The height, shape , and speed could have been no man made aircraft I have ever heard of.

And please do not forget this was right in the center of the Bronx, NYC. Well that is it. That is what I saw.

Event Description:
Okay, it was about 9:00 PM when my grandmother called my mother to look outside of our window.

After my mother looked, I went and looked to see what it was. I saw 4 circular things going around in a circle about 100 feet apart. My grandmother went to look out and came back and my cats began to be antsy. My mother and I went and saw them clearly.

They were going in circles and then connecting and going back apart and doing it again and again for a long time. There were 3 other people that I know of that were looking. It was still clear then. After a little bit we saw 3 more appear and then my grandfather came out.

The wind started to pick up and it started raining. Then one more appeared and the 4 started doing what the first 4 were doing. Then it started pouring and there were lightning strikes. They stopped after an hour, by going farther and farther away and the storm left with them.

We don't live near any big things, but we live in an apartment complex. Oh, and I saw those same things in Las Vegas with my Mom a year ago. And we were the only ones who paid attention.

Reported By: "B" - Rochester, New York - January 14, 2004

Event Description:
Let me first start by saying I didn't really believe in this stuff. Me and my older brother were driving out to a bar near where we grew up. I'm 20, he's 26. He is probably more of a skeptical person than I.

In the flight path of the airport, planes are usually flying low, but this thing was lower than any of that. My brother said "Man, is that thing even moving?" I looked, and to my disbelief, no. It wasn't moving at all. We slowed to see it. I thought it might be a helicopter, so I rolled down my window. No noise.

This thing was big. In the dark night, it had flashing lights like a plane, but it was no plane. I tried to justify it by saying that those lights were that of an American aircraft. No alien thing would use the lights like we use, as they would be easy to see for anyone.

I kept reminding my brother and I to remember what we saw. It was an unreal experience, but once I saw that my brother believed what he saw, I decided it may be more of a real experience.

This is truth, on my honor.

Reported By: Scott L. - Centerville, New York - November 9, 2003
Subject: UFO Sighting - Location: Ellicottville, New York - Date: February 1994 -
Time:11:00 PM - County Sighting Took Place: Cattaraugus - Witnesses: 1 - Object's Shape: Light - Number of Objects: 1 - Object had lights - Object changed colors - Object made sound - Additional Information: US 219 at top of hill 6 miles north of town.
Event Description:
I was driving south on US 219 in my tractor trailer about 5 or 6 miles north of Ellicottville, NY when a stream of light came swooping down and flew parallel to the horizon.

When it reached an object, it adjusted it's altitude sort of like a hovercraft, but at a phenomenal speed and with absolute accuracy. It didn't stop or even slow down, and I lost sight of it for a few seconds until it came to the Holiday Valley ski slopes and shot straight up and the light disappeared.

Holiday Valley was about 5 miles as the crow flies, and it was just a very few seconds from the time I lost sight of the object until I saw it ascending over the resort, so it must have been traveling at 2 miles per second or so.

Event Description:
When I was about 10, me and my friend Steven were up until 3:30 AM at a camp that we were sent to for the summer.

It was a VERY clear night; so clear that one could spot the shooting stars in the sky. Me and my friend Steven were sitting down, facing the immense amount of woods that were ALL around us in a rectangular manner. While sitting, about 100 feet away from us, we spot this 200 foot long elongated-trapezoid object HOVERING off the ground about 100 feet off. It made absolutely NO wind... no even a little gust. This is what absolutely freaked us out because something that usually flies blows everything around for about 200 feet. This made no wind, and it made an extremely low car engine-type noise. It was EXTREMELY soft.. almost completely silent.

We stood watching this thing in complete awe for about 45 seconds, completely shocked at what we were seeing. As it started to rise above the trees, it backed away and as it did, a rectangular shaped object on its side flashed lights all around the edges of it. It flashed red up, across (right), down, across (left). This tipped us over the edge, and I started running toward the counselors, screaming and crying like crazy, and I told them about it. They were all asleep and he just gave me this "go away" nudge. This child Steven did not speak a word throughout the entire night.

The next morning we did not mention a word about this... until I asked Steve if he saw anything. He responded "Yes, and I don't want to talk about it" and it was never mentioned again to one another. At first I thought it was an illusion, but if he also spotted it then it must have been real and I have such a vivid remembrance if it.

Right after 9/11, I was speaking to a friend of mine and I told him the story and he told me that the place I was at (sorry, I forgot the place) has one of the highest UFO sightings in the world. I will never forget that night, and it will always haunt my soul.

Object emitted beams of light - Object hovered - There were aircraft in the area
Additional Information: Over Manhattan, New York City
Event Description:
I am a health care professional working the night shift in New York City at a major hospital.

I was called from my unit at approximately 5 AM, March 7, 2002, to meet the Nursing Supervisor, in the garden complex of the hospital. Sensing urgency in her voice, I immediately met her, upon which she asked me to look up and tell her what I saw.

Even though I am a firm believer in the UFO phenomena, I still could not believe my eyes, to what appeared to be the Southwest end of Manhattan from where I was located. There hovered, completely silent, a very large object in the night sky.

I must admit that I had a very odd, uncomfortable feeling while looking at this object. The object had a bright yellow, alternating red, disk-like lights, appearing to circulate along the bottom, they dimmed also at times.

The top appeared to send out very bright, whitish spurts of light, and in between top and bottom, there appeared multiple, much smaller lights, seeming to almost cover the object, which was "Globular" in shape.

We watched the object, which seemed to slowly rise, and move more toward the West, for well over an hour.

Since then I have done some research and learned that our area of Upstate was the most concentrated area of sightings over the US from 1970 to 1980. I also remember a sighting I later saw on the news that took place over the town in broad daylight that was witnessed by almost a hundred people, occurring in the late 80's or early 90's. I recently found this site looking for similar sightings from the same place/era. Please post them if you had them. Thank you all.

We jumped in the car to go to my friends house to grab the camcorder, when we got back to the beach it was gone. We didn't bother to ask where they went. Now the next day, on TV, Channel 4 NBC NEWS, they are covering the story. I'm waiting now to see the 11:00 PM News to see the story. I wanna see if there's an explanation to this. I just wanna say this is not the first time I've seen a UFO. We are definitely not alone!
