Data from National UFO Reporting Center's Tier 1 UFO sightings data. Gray, aluminum, metallic and chrome were combined into silver. The organization describes Tier 1 sightings as “The most dramatic sightings - strange structured craft or highly anomalous phenomena seen at close distance.” Chart source: https://steeped.ai/ufo-sightings-data-analysis-exploring-tier-1-reports/ When looking closer at the reported colors in the sightings, we found that 81% of UFOs lacked color and were either silv...

Data from National UFO Reporting Center's Tier 1 UFO sightings data. Gray, aluminum, metallic and chrome were combined into silver. The organization describes Tier 1 sightings as “The most dramatic sightings - strange structured craft or highly anomalous phenomena seen at close distance.” Looking at color proportions by decade, UFO reports became noticeably more colorful over time, though earlier decades have smaller sample sizes. The biggest shift seems to be the decrease of gray and the inc...

A respected atmospheric chemist, John W. Birks (professor emeritus at CU Boulder, co-author of the original "nuclear winter" work), posted a preprint arguing that some UAP "orbs" reported to NUFORC are clouds of magnetized meteor dust, supported by a claimed roughly 3-sigma correlation between orb reports and fireball reports. Avi Loeb posted it and shared it with the UAP Science Advisory Council he chairs, which said it will compare the model against AARO's orb data. So this is a physical mo...

We will be presenting an analysis that seriously damages the core findings and scientific methodology in a paper presented by Atmospheric chemist John Birks regarding UAP/orbs. @DepDNILukas @RepLuna @StephenM https://t.co/NlH6KqLplY https://t.co/leScBFHvdR [Quoted] Here is the preprint of atmospheric chemist John Birks' analysis of 508 orb sightings reported to the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC): "these silent, floating luminous objects often exhibit plasma-like behavior and emit visi...

I vibecoded a UFO and UAP sightings globe, bringing in a database of 49,454 NUFORC geocoded reports spanning 1906–2024. They're coded to their locations and dates. Check the decade timeline at the top for a movement through the history of UFO sightings reports. And the Near Me feature does a wide, general location (think city/state) to show you local media coverage and official reports keyed to your area.

This story has an interactive map showing reported sightings in Pennsylvania and the rest of the U.S via NUFORC data over 20+ years. Lotsa dark sky locations obviously, but fun to play around with. Also mentions Kecksburg!

I just made a comment on a post in a different sub and it inspired me to finally do this. There were 3 MUFON reports 6/18/2010 about metallic spheres over Northern Virginia. My report and two others. I also submitted mine to NUFORC. I don't have and do not want a MUFON subscription, so, sorry. I can't post the exact details of their reports. I only saved one person's photos. My UFO sighting on 6/18/2010. 4:15 p.m. Calm day, mostly clear sky. I had just finished mowing my neighbor's lawn and w...

Long time lurker, first time posting. I am an Indian witness from Khairpada, Maharashtra (near Mumbai/Navi Mumbai) and I need serious eyes on this. What I saw: On May 4, 2025 at approximately 7:30 PM IST, I observed a large structured craft moving silently from West to East at approximately 85 degrees elevation (nearly directly overhead) for approximately 1 minute before it faded out. The sky was completely clear. Visual Details: The craft had a clearly defined elongated hull with a visible g...
