New photos of Unidentified Aeiral Objects taken by US Navy F-18 pilots made available

Military and intelligence officials say they remain baffled by unusual, unidentified aircraft that have been encountered in recent years off both coasts of the United States. Many of the objects have been referred to as drones, but that is not what Pentagon investigators have been telling the chain of command behind the scenes.

Naval Air Station Oceana is the center of airpower on the east coast of the United States. It is a sprawling naval air station in Virginia, home to the best aviators in the world. Since at least 2014, F-18 pilots flying into the zone designated W-72 have reported encounters with a bizarre array of unknown, unidentified objects and aircraft, positioned directly in their daily flight paths.

Investigators with the Pentagon’s UAP Task Force have requested that airmen try to document their encounters. On March 4th, 2019, one of them did.

An F-18 weapons systems officer (WSO) seated behind the pilot used his iPhone to capture images of three different objects he encountered in the same airspace.

At 3:02 p.m. he photographed an odd shaped object. Another photo, taken close to the same time, was first posted to twitter on May 11, 2020, then again on social media 6 months later.

Other photos taken on the same day; March 4th, 2019 have never been made public until now.

The object the Navy calls the “Sphere” was photographed at 2:44 p.m. 



The second one to be photographed was dubbed the “Acorn.” A similar, but different photograph of this same object was published online in December 2020.



Then, 12 minutes later, the WSO spotted a third object,  described as the “Metallic Blimp.” It appears to have various appendages. 

 


Speculation at the time was that the objects might be foreign spy drones, possibly Chinese. Critics tried to explain away the objects. Several people online compared the Acorn to a toy Batman balloon. But two years later, after careful study by the UAP Task Force, the objects remain unidentified.

Several silver spherical objects in the sky over Salida, California, USA on 30 Jan 2021

YouTuber "Rob Cox" has posted a video showing several  silver spherical objects floating in the sky over Salida, California, USA on 15 Feb 2021.


Rob states "As my wife and I were in our backyard on Jan. 30th, 2021, we saw several silver spherical objects in the sky. Only today, when looking at the footage again, did I notice that there was a disc-shaped object that sped back and forth into and out of the framed shot. I noticed the first one at about 7 seconds into the video. This has not been edited or adjusted in any way."

Unusual "morphing" "objects caught on video during both day and evening time, Makaha Oahu Hawaii, 7 Feb 2021

 A YouTuber "Sky Walkertexasranger" has posted several videos showing unusual aerial objects over Makaha Oahu Hawaii, 7 February 2021.

 

They say "This morphing craft appeared just over the hilltop from North Shore area. It came down slowly and started out gliding down almost like a bright glowing white hang glider, except we determined it wasn't a hang glider when we noticed the points were moving in and out of its center and there was no person attached hanging below.. then it was like it took off this wider pointy veil (except nothing fell to the ground) and turned into a dark but reflective metallic ball. 

Sometimes it would go so dark tho, that we couldn't see the reflection of the sun on it for a moment. Really bizarre. It hovered slowly down lower where we could clearly see then went behind the building for a minute till it re-emerged and was still doing all these interesting things that did not seem physically possible. 

It would emanate bright blue-green plasma light flashes from it that were brighter than the sun. It blared through the clouds and also had a wider glowing halo around it, then it would turn dark again, and back and forth in a random pulsating rhythm which seemed like Morse code. 

Sadly I only caught the last bit of it on camera but the 6 of us watched it slowly and silently morph by for about 6 minutes. I know its kind of hard to spot at first but its towards the lower middle of the screen. I can zoom in much further on my phone but I'm not sure how I can get the video on to YouTube like that. Let me know if you have any skills or tips on that! Most explainable, thing I've ever seen in my life. Caught a second one a little bit later"


 

Then, the second video

"This is the 2nd of the two UFOs my friends and I saw on 2/7/21 at Makaha Beach on Oahu in Hawaii. I have never seen anything quite like these before. It was amazing" 

"The first was at 5pm (still sunny, sadly my phone was scrambled when it was really close. They both came down from just over the hilltop from North Shore area and curved up towards the mountains. They flew by pretty slowly. We watched the first one in complete awe for about 6 minutes before it blinked in and out of visibility. 

It went off into space. It did not fly towards the airport or Pearl Harbor. It did not take a typical flight path for planes in this area, nor did they look, sound or behave like planes or any drone I've ever seen. 

The videos don't even do these things any justice.. This one didn't seem to be shapeshifting like the first one, but it did glow with an aura that was completely out of this world. There were no wings, winglights or taillights, and no sound".


 

Analysis

Sadly, the videos don't really show any of the things that the objects were claimed to be doing. The videos just seem to show a round object floating along, with the usual suspects coming to mind, balloon, drone...

Three strange objects caught falling from the sky, then change direction near the ground, Denver, USA 31 Jan 2021 - UPDATED

There have been 2 separate reports of the same incident in Denver, Colorado, USA 2021. Both report three objects slowly falling from the sky, leaving a trail, and then when close to the ground, they change direction and move away.

 

Witness 1 states "I was having my morning coffee, i generally look out my window while i'm doing that. i looked up and i asked my friend if they could see that weird smoke trails. the trails were long at first and you could see that there was a direction change in the upper atmosphere. as it got lower to the ground, i would say within 1,500 feet, they slowly started changing directions and started heading east toward buckley air force base. there was no sound, no odor no strange electromagnetic sensations. these objects did not appear to be in a hurry and they maintained a straight heading. had i not looked at them directly, i probably would have imagined them to be a chemtrail coming from an aircraft. however all three of these maintained a perfect formation until they're out of sight."

Witness 2 provided some video and states " I observed 3 large white objects traveling at a high rate of speed. they maintained their formation and had long tails. the best description is that they looked like cloud tear-drops. 10:45 in the morning and no clouds in the sky- and i observed these very large objects appear to "fall" then move east at a high rate of speed. they maintained their brightness and formation unitl i lost sight of them due to trees and buildings. my sister is the past vp of mufon in mo, btw- and their team of video experts is analyzing this as well."

 

Both witnesses made independent statements to MUFON. 

Analysis

These are most intriguing objects. At first glance, they look like falling space debris. However, we see the contrail that is left shows the objects path, and all three show a gentle curve to the right. 

We can also see that the three objects seem very similar, if not identical in appearance, all showing the same flat front edge and exactly the same contrail structure. 

 

Space debris or a meteorite would certainly fall at a faster rate then these objects, so perhaps they are under some kind of controlled decent. 

We can see that the contrail forms two main trails at each extremity of the object. For aircraft, contrails consist of water vapour from the engine exhausts - could engines be producing these contrails?

Witness 1 claims the objects moved towards Buckley Air Force base - it is interesting that this is home to the US Space command, whose duties include carrying out space surveillance, space communications, space-based missile warning capabilities and support operations.

UPDATE

Other witnesses claim to have seen the same objects but from a different angles. From these angles, it would appear the objects aren't falling at all, but flying normally. Some claim the three objects are just C-17 transport planes and say this is confirmed using a plane tracking site (Adsb exchange). 

 

One slight discrepancy remains - C-17's have 4 jet engines and so you would expect to see 4 contrail trails, whilst the objects in the video and picture seems to only have 2 contrails.

 
Conclusion - Probably three C-17 Transport planes

Two bright UFO's merge then disappear over Graz, Austria, 28 Jan 2021

You-tuber "MrTensz1" has posted an interesting video showing two bright objects hovering over Graz, Austria, on 28 January 2021. 


The two objects then move towards each other, appearing to merge into one object before moving off and fading away until then are no longer observable.

Strange multiple bright lights in the sky west over Phoenix, AZ, USA 20 Jan 2021

 

Witness report: "It was super weird the lights moved independently from each other two of them moved west right past the mountain then suddenly changed trajectory back east towards the other lights, they then disappeared one by one and then came back 30 mins later"


Analysis

One observer says; "I live in Phoenix and the flight path into Sky Harbor can make lights appear way closer or flying in unison. The flight path often changes so it can either come from superstition, south mountain or from the north. Having said that, I can’t tell you that’s 100% what that is but wouldn’t be surprised if that’s what it was."

Another says, "I was going to say looks like typical jets lined up to land at Sky Harbor."

Strange objects in the sky over Coonian, Co Fermanagh, N Ireland, Jan 2021

Cllr Sheamus Greene reported a couple of ‘close encounters’ with literal UFOs, unidentified flying objects, in recent weeks. It all began a few weeks ago when he spotted a strange orange glowing object in the skies over Carrickaheenan view point, near Brookeborough. Cllr Greene said he had been driving home when he noticed a strange light in the sky.


 
“My bus run was finished that day so I stopped and took the photograph,” he said. “Then I saw the orange light in the sky and it was in the photo as well, and I just thought, what is that?” He added: “Without a shadow of a doubt, it was a UFO, because the definition of is unidentified flying object. It definitely wasn’t the sun, if you enlarge the photo there are three orange lights a wee bit apart.”


The weirdness doesn’t end there either. On the very next day after he spotted the first UFO, Cllr Greene discovered a local picnic table set in the same area completely wrapped in black plastic. Baffled as to why, Cllr Greene contacted the council department responsible for the table. Strangely, it was not the Council who wrapped the table. “I’m as baffled as anyone else by it, it’s very spooky. ” he said. 

Then, last week, Cllr Greene was walking near in the local area when he spotted yet another unidentified object flying in the sky, this time in daylight.


“One person said they had seen these lights, and one of the quotes sent to me was that possibly that plastic was put on the bench to stop you looking up as it’s a view point,” he said. “Then they ended the message very spookily by saying ‘tread carefully’.”


 
All in all, though, Cllr Greene conceded: “It’s a bit of light relief. I’m not taking it all too seriously.”

Two hovering white lights seen in Poland and Turkey

Two separate reports have been made of two white lights hovering stationery in the air, one from Poland and the other report from Turkey.


"Today at 1pm, while standing in the parking lot of the Gama store in Bukowina Tatrzańska, I noticed 2 strange objects in the sky. First thought: balloons. But it was strange that despite the light wind, the objects stood still, and even the clouds were moving. Later, the objects, keeping the same distance to each other all the time, moved in relation to each other like two ends of a compass. It was very high up and without any sound. No drone I know behaves like this, it does not fly so high and is not visible from such a height"

 At the same time, the following video was posted by Erkan Özdede from Turkey. The exact location and time are unknown.


 
 
Could these be the same two objects?
