November 19, 2012 - DRAMATIC SIGHTINGS OF RED AND ORANGE “FIREBALLS” CONTINUE
On Saturday night, November 10, and then again on November 17, NUFORC received a large number of reports of clusters of red and orange “fireballs,” a phenomenon our Center has attempted to call to the attention of visitors to our website for almost two years.
November 12, 2012 - PHENOMENON OF ORANGE AND RED “FIREBALLS” APPEARS TO INCREASE DRAMATICALLY ON NOVEMBER 10th AND 11TH, 2012
For almost two years, the National UFO Reporting Center has attempted to call to the attention of the public the fact that frequent sightings of clusters of red, orange, and yellow “fireballs” are occurring, for which there appears to be no adequate explanation. The objects clearly are not aircraft, meteors, satellites, weather balloons, swamp gas…all objects that frequently are cited by UFO skeptics in attempt to explain the UFO phenomenon in pedestrian terms.
On the evening of Saturday, November 10th, 2012, NUFORC began to receive a “pulse” of reports of sightings of these peculiar “fireballs,” and that trend appears to continue, as this text is being written.
In order to bring this information to the attention of the public as quickly as possible, we post below a sample of some of the reports that have been submitted to our Center over the last 24 hours. The event appears to us to be of sufficient importance and magnitude to warrant our posting the reports in their “raw” form. The reports are largely unedited, and appear in their original form, although we have attempted to confirm that each report indicates the correct times. The reports are in order of occurrence of the sightings, allowing for the three time zones in the U. S..
If anyone visiting our website has been witness to one of the events shown below, we would like to invite the person to submit a written report, using our Online Report Form. Also, we encourage witnesses to contact the local press in their area…radio, television, and newspaper offices…in order to report the sighting to them, and in attempt to achieve some publicity for the sighting. If other witnesses to the event are located, please have them submit a written report, as well.
