The UFO Traffic Report for Monday, October 5, 2009, includes 7 selected sightings over 5 states, according to witness statements filed in the past 72 hours with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.
Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or manmade. If MUFON investigates and reports back on any of these cases, I will update this page. The following reports and their headlines are unedited and uninvestigated.
MI, October 4, 2009 - Two distinct objects, One Rectagular & One Disc. MUFON Case # 19811.
A Michigan witness watched two unidentified objects in the night sky over Round Lake. The first was described as a bright, tall, box-shaped object. It moved across the sky with "three sets of multi color blinking lights," made a sharp right turn, and turned its lights off. The second object was described as "a bright white disc shaped object that had a round center." The witness was able to snap one photo with a cell phone of the second object and wants to know if anyone else saw the same thing.
CO, October 2, 2009 - 5 large Triangle UFOs moving as thought they were scanning ground. MUFON Case # 19783.
Two Colorado witnesses watched multiple triangle-shaped UFO "over the mountains between Glenn Haven and Box Prairie." One of the witnesses saw seven objects and the second saw four.
TX, October 2, 2009 - It was just hovering/stationary over the interstate as we drove S on I-35. MUFON Case # 19781.
Two Texas witnesses watched three white lights and two red lights hovering above I-35 South in Round Rock.
NV, October 2, 2009 - two objects looking like satellites crossing paths within seconds before disappearing. MUFON Case # 19777.
A McGill, Nevada, family traveling 50 miles northeast of their home saw multiple cases of a "big, bright orange ball of light." They described the objects as very large and very bright, similar to looking at a street lamp from 50 yards away. Other drivers pulled over to watch the objects. There was no sound in the air until they heard "jets coming from all directions," and then the lights disappeared.
VA, September 29, 2009 - Several objects; sphere shaped, multi-colored rotating lights. MUFON Case # 19804.
A Virginia witness reports several objects in the sky that were hovering at first, with "multi-colored lights rotating across each sphere." After watching for 15 to 20 minutes, the objects began to move. One moved zig-zag style and the others moved "in lateral lines, but far too rapidly to be a terrestrial vehicle." There was no sound associated with any of the objects.
TN, October 1, 2009 - Object was long and slender, reflecting light. MUFON Case # 19803.
A Tennessee witness notcied a "long and skinny looking object flying" overhead. The witness reports that the object had no wings or flashing lights. "From where I could see, the whole side of it looked "flat", or at least there were no obvious bumps to cast shadows.. it looked white on the side, from where the sun was shining on it." The witness lost slight of the object when it moved out of view.
MI, August 7, 2009 - Large orange-red sphere came down over us. MUFON Case # 19798.
A couple in Michigan watched a "large globe on the horizon" that was pulsed a very bright red color. As the object came closer, it seemed to pulse back and forth between red and orange. The object either faded to a pinpoint of light, or shot up into the air to where it appeared to be just a pinpoint.

Helicopter search light...
It's the moon, either that or britney spears is having her period again
The moon.
Although, some might say the moon is a valid consideration when discussing ET's.
Yeah that crazy moon is always zipping around the sky. Why don't you guys get serious or go back to your Rush Limbaugh program where you belong?? or on second thought, will the gov. pay me to say really stupid things online too? I need the money...
Another witness,another sign of the times~~~~Last call for specimen P/U
iTS MUFON. they like to have lots of ufo reports,so they fabricate a few and let unqualified people investgate others. duhuh..
i think that is a real spase ship.
That is not the moon. Nor is it a helicopter search light. Think about that one for a moment, if a helecopter had its light on you, would you use a camera at it? That flash could appear to be a discharged fire arm. It is for sure not the moon as the object is too bright (which is why you get lensflare from it, its close enough to light up the imperfections of the lense) and its illuminations through the cloud show that it is about 35-75 feet from it.
I've seen something along these lines at 5:45 in the morning 04/27/2009. It was bright enough that it burned an image into my retna that stayed there for about 8 minutes.
This is the moon. After seeing this report, I took a picture of the moon next to a similar cloud with a cell phone & I got a similar looking picture, with a horizontal reflection, because of hysteresis of the camera. Most reports of UFOs are explainable but other reports from highly qualified & multiple witnesses suggest that there are objects that defy common explanation. Jimmy Carter, Dennis Kucinich and other politicians have also seen UFOs, so this is not a dittohead only situation. Statistically, the liklihood that there are other intelligent races capable of interstellar travel would seem a certainty. Humans, though somewhat intelligent, still haven't discovered the nature of what the majority of the universe is made of,dark matter, dark energy, so how arrogant must some humans be to think that because human technology is unable to take us to the stars that means its impossible for any intelligent species? Being skeptical does not equate to having a closed mind.
Hate to say it but picks or it didn't happen. :)
I have to agree with the previous comment about this being a shot of the moon.
The image is caused by a normal photographic lens flare due to bad optics and shooting directly into a bright object with the wrong exposure.
How can we get any real research done with cases like this taking up the public eye? Nice job.
Hey... All I can say is that the moon was on the other side of the sky..and I know this was not a helicopter as it hovered then banked (I took the picture as it banked) then shot away at a very high speed. It made no noise at all. I just wish I was able to get a picture of the tall box shaped object...it was very freaky with multi colored rows of blinking lights..I saw that object closer that this disc. So, with that said...fire away skeptics...as I was a skeptic prior to this night of sightings. The only reason I put my story and picture of the disc out there was that I was hoping to find out if any one else saw what I saw...Seeing is believing! And if you don't believe...get a life..and quit visiting sites where you think everybody on the site is wrong!
