Duration: 4 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Crossville, TN, USA
Location details: Sky

Shape: Sphere
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

I saw a white, spherical object moving at a steady pace while a plane was not too far behind it, going the same direction.

At 1:19pm central time I was standing outside smoking a cigarette.
I looked up past my roof, and saw a plane, leaving a long white trail of smoke.

I scanned ahead of the plane to see where it may have been going, and saw a white, spherical object moving at a consistent rate, leaving no trail, with the plane following not too far behind it.

I pulled out my phone, and began to record first the object, then I panned right to show the plane, then panned left again to show the object.
I followed the object with my camera until I lost sight of it, but could still see the plane.

It was a blue sky, with little to no clouds.

UFOs over a field in the sky in the early morning

Well I was riding in a van at the time of the capture of the lights in the sky and really I didn't mean to capture the lights but I ended up doing that. I was actually trying to take a picture of the morning sky .






NUFORC Note:

Nighttime photo indicates several blurry, faint sources of light. PD

5 orange red objects flew by and 3 made a triangle formation, while 2 flew ahead of the last 3.

We saw five orange red objects flying relatively fast by. 2 went ahead and 3 slowed down and made a triangle formation. The first 2 vanished and the last 3 faded out! They made no sound and despite there being no wind moved rapidly. The whole thing lasted about 5 mins from when we first saw them.

It was p.m. and where we live there aren't street lights , so it gets very dark.

Bright light going west to east over eastern Tennessee

I was on my front porch with two small children watching lightening bugs when what we thought was plane flew over. The light was very large which made it seem as though it was flying low, however, there was no sound, no trail and no blinking lights. It traveled west to east and passed nearly directly overhead.

It traveled the full arc of the sky over us. It was in the sky for at least 3-5 minutes and was bright enough to be seen even through some light scattered clouds. It was visible much longer than usual for aircraft we see, and I’ve seen a Galaxy land. This light was brighter. This did not seem like an airplane at all.

Shape: Circle


My husband, mother-in-law and I were on our back deck and saw the red lights just above the tall trees in our backyard, they were not fast moving, just going along at a medium pace, they were not in a straight line but more or less in a cluster or formation style pattern.

I went through my house and out the front door, walked up the street and watched them move toward town. They were not really high because I had to wait for them to come out of the trees to see them. There was no sound.

My husband and I are in our late 60's and his mother is 90, we are retired and enjoy a quiet lifestyle in Tennessee. This is the first time any of us has seen anything unusual like this in the sky.

I called the local sheriff's department right after we saw these lights and reported what we had seen.

We called the small local airport on Monday and they did not even have anyone at the airport Sunday night and knew nothing about the lights.

We would love to know what these lights were and if anyone else saw them.

large Bright light, no shape to describe, just light ....slow, zigzag then faded

It was one object; it was an unbelievable bright light, so a shape could not be determined. It was about 8 miles east of our location, moving extremely slowly. It began short zig zagging motions a few times and then went straight and began fading to nothing over about 3 seconds or so. It all lasted about 60 seconds.

Large green circular orb with coinciding power outage.

UFO Sighting On October 3, 2007 at approximately 11:32 P.M. in Crossville, Tennessee our power went out at our Peavine Road home. My son and his girlfriend observed a large green soundless circular orb in the sky that moved slowly over the city then faded away. A friend of theirs across town called and reported seeing the same phenomenon that also coincided with a power outage at his location. The power was out about 45 seconds. There was some chatter today on local radio about this sighting.

This is no hoax. Although some logical explanation may exist, my son can think of none that match his current scope of knowledge. He is 22 years of age and he and I are both skeptical yet fascinated by the possibility of "visitors." He informed me that this was the "real deal" and an incredible sighting of a very large craft. If you are interested in his first hand account or can provide us with an explanation, I’ll put you in touch with him. I have yet to get details from him yet because he was headed to work and pressed for time.

He nor I seek any fortune or fame nor attention but are willing to help an investigation, in the interest of an explanation. Unfortunately, I can only attest to the power outage, but you can bet I’ll be running like hell outside if the power flickers tonight. I am sure there are many that could provide details and I simply wanted to let you know, in case you wanted to talk to eyewitnesses in our city. Maybe somebody got a picture.

Black, triangular object observed over pond in Crossville, Al

My couzin and I were riding my four-wheeler. We came around the house and observed a bright, triangular object over our pond. I ran as fast as I could and got my couzin in the house. She got everybody and then, it was gone. All it made was a small humming sound and it was a black color with little channels of light on the surface of it. It was probably 50 to 75 feet away.

more pulsing red lights in the night sky

my 9 yr. old daughter saw them first, she was outside on the front porch she called me outside to the porch, i then wittnessed with her 3 flashing circular objects. i then called for my husband whom was on the phone with our son. our son at the present is at the south end of the county 25 miles away, my husband then told our son of our discovery and our son was watching too. one of the objects went due north at a slow speed then stopped momentarily above the treeline, the other 2 objects were circleling like a "ring around the rosie game" type manuver. then the 2 circleling started traveling away from one another. we then wittnessed 5 more objects traveling in different directions, 3 of which lined up in a row, straight up and down and staying in that posistion, the object in the middle of the row of three traveled a distance away toward the south. the other two objects travel away and towards the original area of these object sightings as of right now they are still out there flashing and blink and as these objects are looking or searching for something. my husband believes there may be other living things in space, i believe something if i see it. my daughter of course at age nine is curious and facinated by these sightings, our son is somewhat like my husband. we are very well educated people, but reside in a small town. this isn't the first sighting we have wittenessed, however this is our first time reporting a sighting to you. our sightings before we have reported to local police and radio, but i don't think we were taken seriously. there is definately something unidentified beaming around out there and i get a real uneasy feeling when i see these objects.i can't explain that, but i can assure you, that i am a believer at this point.



NUFORC Note:

We spoke with the witness at some length, and we found her to be quite convincing in her description of the objects. She had the presence of mind to call another witness at a different location and have that individual go outside and look. That person reportedly saw the objects, as well. PD

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

The object i observed as i stood on the bank of the yellow river. Near the kankeke river. was as big as four tennis courts stacked two side by side end to end. Shaped like a triangle. The reason i saw this object was, because i was shooting off fire works rockets and looked up to see why one of the fire works did'nt exsplode.I was standing near a weeping willow tree that stood at least 65ft high. As i looked up it apeared that part of the sky began to rotate slowly. This is what caught my eye at the same time i heard what sounded like a ''humm'' like a high voltage transformer as i continued to look at this object it apeared to have stars on the out side as if to hide.. it apeared to have some dim light comming from it's seams. As it moved out over the river it droped behind the tree line.

This whole insident was just above the tree top. I have kept this to my self for all these years. Because i didn't think any one would except this story . But i know it happened.
