Ultra clear daylight UFO footage from Devon.

March 9, 2011
The person who posted this clip says that the footage was shot by an elderly man out walking with his dog. If it is a CGI effect, it's a very good job. It is difficult to get movement like that... continued

UFO shows up in Irkutsk 2 days in a row.

March 9, 2011
This was originally explained away as a meteor. But they don't generally return for a second try, so it has to be an unknown. continued

Pulsing blue light over Ghana is puzzling.

March 9, 2011
This pulsating blue celestial object is not a star. Certainly, it is not a pulsar as one of the YouTube comments suggests. There are no pulsars that can be seen without powerful astronomical telescopes. The object remains a mystery. Graded B. continued

Christie Brinkley: I saw a UFO. Bright lights flew over, then went under the water.

March 9, 2011
Christie Brinkley offers a good description of a UFO, strengthened by multiple-witness accounts and physical movements that are not possible for any known aircraft. For the skeptics, you could claim that what she saw was a burning flock of geese... continued

Did Discovery record UFO beaming light down to earth?

March 7, 2011
Hard to be certain of this, but the objects don't look like space debris. Graded A for authenticity of the video, not accuracy of the interpretation, which cannot be known. continued

Australia: glowing balls of light appear 4 nights in a row.

Unexplained body near the sun.

March 5, 2011
What this may be is anybody's guess. It is difficult to believe that an enormous object like this could be in our solar system without causing profound disruptions, not to mention a sensation among astronomers. What aren't we seeing here? continued

Strange lights seen by hundreds could not be photographed.

March 5, 2011
Perfect new UFO technology: the real ones can be seen but not photographed. If this phenomenon begins to appear more frequently, it's going to cause quite a stir. continued
