NUFORC UFO Sighting 176571
Occurred: 2021-03-10 16:25 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2023-07-03 16:00 Pacific
Duration: about 15 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Dix Hills, NY, USA
Location details: Driving West bound on Northern state parkway, just past exit "42s" the thing was traveling about N/S

Shape: Disk
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Overcast clouds change into hexagon, then sunshine, and a very large and fast flying saucer.

While driving westbound on NY's Northernstate parkway, I noticed suinshine on an overcast day, i looked up to see clouds swirling and forming a hexagonal shape of clear sky, what looked to be much larger then a 747 airplane started darting back and fourth in the sky, at times going out of my visual range. The thing looked like a steryotypical flying saucer though with a less narrow and taller top half, almost shaped like a fedora styled hat, and appeared a dark grey indistinct color. The thing was very huge, I cant understate this, if I had to estimate, I would say roughly 300' across maybe 40' tall. The thing was moving to me what looked like left and right but was probably closer to North / south given my orientation. The thing was moving incredibly quickly i would guess at least a few miles as it moving beyond my ability to see it, also the trees by the side of the road were tall, I could only really see to my left/up, but i could see clearly for a fair distance given the curve of the road. After going left / right a few times maybe less then 10, it was gone, and the clouds were back to normal as well. the geometric vortex in the clouds seemed to follow it and give a clear view of it as it moved. I was driving in moderate traffic at the time so I had maybe 15 seconds of view time over a maybe 30 second period.

I didn't know I could report this until today, the dates and times are estimated as it was a while ago, but I'm fairly certain the location is within 2 miles of the sighting.

Occurred: 2016-06-22 02:20 Local
Reported: 2016-06-22 00:14 Pacific
Duration: 20 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Dix Hills, NY, USA

Shape: Sphere
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

10-12 orange flickering spheres going N to S, horizon to horizon, in about 20-25 seconds.

Object appeared round or spherical. Color was a bright orande with slight flickering but not strobes. Flying NNE to SSW at what seemed to be a high altitude. Total of 10-12 objects spread out over the sky (due to trees vision to the north is approx. 15 degree elevation while southern is approx 30 degrees elevation). Time from Firestone I saw to the last one was about 20 seconds. Watching them they were faster than commercial aircraft. Traveled in a haphazard formation N to S. The sky had some high altitude clouds but otherwise it is a clear sky. What caught my eye was the bright orange color with a brighter center, could not detect any sound. The more I think about the altitude, it was high but not so high that it seemed far away--hard to describe not knowing their size. I took 3 photos but an iPhone6 camera is not what I confided a camera. Photos came out as the typical UFO picture, a spot in the sky. You want a description of the observer.

61 years old, retired manufacturing engineer. Not much to me.

Thank you for your time!

Location: Dix Hills, NY, USA

Shape: Light


Noticed a bright red ball to the east which was heading in a westerly direction. Its altitude appeared very high. The lights appeared to be in a tight triangular pattern. They did not strobe at all. Just constantly on. The light appeared to stop in space and then change to a north direction and slowly diminish in size and brightness until it disappeared abruptly.

Reported: 2014-10-24 08:33 Pacific
Duration: 30 seconds
No of observers: 2

Location: Dix Hills, NY, USA

Shape: Fireball
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Left a trail, Emitted other objects, Changed Color, Landed

Blue Trailing Fireball falling out of the sky at incredible speed.

Me and my friend were standing in the street by his car when I see his face look up in shock.

He tells me to turn around and asks me what the heck that is.

It was a blue fireball about the size of my hand with a trail that resembled a huge shooting star as if it was only about 2500 feet away falling out of the sky from west to east at an incredible speed.

The most bizarre thing about it was it changed colors from white to blue then orange before it disappeared from sight. I tried to find the landing pint but couldn't.

Duration: A few seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Dix Hills, NY, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object

The UFO had a light on the bottom and accelerated in a curved path out of sight.

It was 11:30pm and dark out. I saw a circular object in the sky with a white light on the bottom which was more than half of the radius of the entire UFO. I saw it move away from me and start to accelerate. It quickly accelerated out of my sight. The path that the UFO took was curved.
