The 1997 Phoenix Lights: A giant solid V with 5 lights attached directly to it. Not flares. Not aircraft

Sighting reportPhoenix Lightsvia r/UAP

The Phoenix Lights wasn't flares it was a solid V with 5 orbs attached to it. Everyone talks about the 10pm flares over Phoenix on March 13, 1997. That was the SECOND event. The first event (8-9pm) is what thousands actually saw from Prescott to Tucson: A massive, silent, solid letter V moving low and slow over the desert. It blocked out the stars as it passed. No sound. No blinking. Witnesses were very specific: it wasn't 5 separate lights. It was one solid craft with 5 amber orbs attached d...

An Alternative to the “Night of Lights” Might be a “Night of Remembering” People report having recurrent dreams sometimes called the "night of lights" in which the nighttime sky is full of UFOs. What if many individuals suddenly started to recall past encounters with UFO intelligences? Serious

Opinionvia r/aliens

People report having recurrent dreams sometimes called the "night of lights" in which the nighttime sky is full of flying saucers. A variant of this dream is one in which the daytime sky is full of structured craft. Related to my status as a contact activist, this is a wish dream that I must admit I have fancied as well. In my opinion, however, it will not likely take place anytime in the conceivable future. This is because such an awesome development in my judgment would probably trigger a t...

Andover, Hampshire8/28/2026

Hi all, not sure how much people know about it, but we have a website here in the Netherlands that tracks all sightings (they also get contacted with sightings as well). They do initial investigations into the sighting, to see if there is a "normal" explanation for it. I'm not in any way connected with the website, but I thought it would be nice to share this information. There are a lot of sightings.

This is my first post in here so please take it easy on me. 🥲 Hey all, I’m from the UK and I’m hoping someone might be able to help me identify something really strange I saw in the sky over Andover, Hampshire. I was outside at night when I noticed what appeared to be a circular object with lights around/on it. The lights were quite noticeable, and the object itself looked almost like a disc or circle from my perspective. What really caught my attention was the way it was moving. It seemed t...

Summary In April 1992, Mexican photographer Óscar Arredondo Ramírez presented a series of photographs that allegedly showed an extraterrestrial inside the volcanic crater of La Alberca, near Valle de Santiago, Guanajuato. The figure became known as the “Humanoid of Valle de Santiago” or “El marcianito de La Alberca.” Arredondo ran a photography business called Fotografía México on Calle Juárez in Valle de Santiago. His photographs first appeared in ¡Cuestión Policiaca! No. 104, dated October...

Little Black Dots

Disclaimer: I am not an expert on how iPhone cameras work, or on the moon, or UFOs. I’m just asking about my experience. I went to shoot video of the lunar eclipse tonight. When I slowed the video down substantially, there were little black dots that seemed to appear out of nowhere. They would reappear on the other side of the screen. This is a screen recording of my video, and I pause the video for a couple seconds every time I see a tiny black dot. Let me know what y’all think submitted by...

Disclosure and evidence

I’ve been following this topic on and off over the years and I believe it is far more likely than not we live in a massive sea of life and consciousness in the universe/space time. I’ve encountered UFOs as well but have my own explanations for them. I was once in the middle of a forest at 1am when some type of drone flew through the trees probably at 150-200mph in the pitch blackness nearly right over my head. There were no lights on the aircraft, and it was below the tree line and able to do...

The 1992 Southaven Park UFO Crash Video - Long Island, NY

Southaven Park8/27/2026

On May 25, 1993, the South Shore Press published “UFO Crash at Southaven Park?” by Robert Sands, claiming that something had come down inside Southaven Park in Shirley, Long Island, on the night of November 24, 1992. Investigator John Ford said witnesses had described a low-flying object, strange lights, and heavy rumbling around the park. Ford’s group later claimed to have obtained a videotape showing a reddish metallic object venting white vapor. Another portion of the tape was interpreted...

I remember this happened in the 90s, and in the UK I believe. I saw it on some documentary discussing how the British govt covered it up, but that a plane (seen in the image) was scrambled to investigate the object. I think the photographer said he had to hid underneath a tree and was later visited by men about the picture he took. Has this ever been disproven? submitted by /u/Jolly_Echo806

Independence Day UFO Encounters by Preston Dennett What’s the most common day to see a UFO? The answer may surprise you: the 4th of July! That’s right, Independence Day produces more UFO reports than any other day. The question is, why? Are people mistaking fireworks for genuine UFOs? Or is something else going on here? An examination of the UFO reports made on the fourth of July shows some interesting patterns. Many do involve fiery glowing orbs, or what may very well be sky lanterns, also k...

On November 9, 1974, at around 4:00 a.m., Dorothy Izatt said she woke to find a huge craft hovering in the sky near her home in Richmond, British Columbia. From that point on, she began filming strange lights, objects, and beings she believed were appearing around her. ------ Most of her content is very difficult to find. She has a ton of UFO photos, which are not included in my article - but can be found in some of the included source links. I also included a link I found on archive.org to a...
