MUFON (Mutual UFO Network) reports that there were 468 sightings reported to MUFON in the month of October from the following countries;  This is down from 751 from the following month of September.   The US continues to be the top in the number of reports.  Check below and see where your state fits in.  Colorado really slipped in the number of reports  from 5th in August to 14th in September to 15th last month.  Must have been the snow!    It is interesting to note that  there were  31 Landings, Hovering, or Takeoffs reported (down 12 from last month)  and 30 Entities observed (down 6 from last month).  For the first time in awhile, there were more sphere like than star- like crafts reported than other shapes.  By the way . . .I've had the flu -bad - so my articles will continue when I get better!  Sorry for the interruption!
