1 00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,240 Hello and welcome to the program UFO Warning. 2 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:11,120 In this episode we're talking about New Fork UFO reports over 3 00:00:11,120 --> 00:00:13,640 Iowa. That's correct, New Fork UFO 4 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,760 reports over Iowa. Lots of cool reports here. 5 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,600 Hey, if you like the program, don't forget to like, follow and 6 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,360 subscribe. It really helps with the 7 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,480 algorithm. So this first one happened on 8 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,840 December 14th. It says 2024 duration one minute 9 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:33,280 observers one location Sanborn, IA Location details not sure. 10 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:38,360 Shape disk white lights and red Estimated size big Not big 11 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:39,840 enough to be a plane or a helicopter. 12 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,160 Viewed from land direction S angle angle of elevation 43 13 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,600 closest distance not sure. Estimated speed maybe 80 miles 14 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,880 an hour. Possibly a drone they think 15 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:54,560 characteristics lights on object changed color, saw for one 16 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,040 minute straight flying then went faster and disappeared. 17 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,680 Saw it flying slow disk with white, red and green lights, 18 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,680 then it went faster and disappeared. 19 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,720 Not sure how many disk shaped drones we have out there. 20 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,080 Sounds a lot more like a flying saucer to me. 21 00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:15,600 Not not sure there's another one this is from just says location 22 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:20,560 United States flying on Delta 951 about over Iowa so going 23 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:25,240 over flight fly over country. See this UFO date on this is 24 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,640 11/10/24. It says shape unknown bright 25 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:35,360 blue rocket not big rocket maybe 5 feet in height really not 26 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:36,760 sure. Viewed from land. 27 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,240 My plane was heading east, so this thing was going north at 28 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,840 slightly lower at a slightly lower elevation, but above the 29 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,960 clouds. Angle of elevation 45, closest 30 00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:47,520 distance, not sure. Estimated speed. 31 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,880 Fast explanation. Aircraft probable. 32 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,280 Well, first they call it a rocket, then they call it 33 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,400 possibly an aircraft. Boy, I'm not sure. 34 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,200 It says something passed under our plane and did not look like 35 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,720 a plane. I could only see the rocket 36 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,600 which was bright blue, but it was not round. 37 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,840 It looked maybe three times whiter than it was tall. 38 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,960 It was going very fast. It was only insight a few 39 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,080 seconds. Didn't think I could capture it 40 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,520 on my phone or I would have. I suppose it could have been a 41 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,120 fighter jet. Maybe the heat distortion of the 42 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,840 jet hid the plane itself and made the rocket look whiter than 43 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,520 it did tall. Did not hear anything. 44 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,720 I thought it might be fun to report it. 45 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,640 It just looks so not normal, but I really have no idea. 46 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,040 Like I said, could have been a jet. 47 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,320 This is the reaction we get a lot of times from people. 48 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,840 You see a UFO for the first time, they're just grasping at 49 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,520 straws to try to explain it. Let me tell you, I've been in a 50 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,880 jet before. Looked out the window is down 51 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,240 and seen a couple of fighter jets flying up taking off in the 52 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,160 same airport. They look really cool and they 53 00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:01,640 are unmistakably fighter jets. They don't look like rockets. 54 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,000 They look nothing like what this person has described here. 55 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,720 They're in the middle of Iowa. I kind of doubt you're going to 56 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,760 have a rocket flying at horizontal angle below you. 57 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,880 It seems to me like they have had their first experience at 58 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,120 sighting an actual UFO. We got some more here. 59 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:29,080 This one here is from 12/17/24. It's approximate date duration 3 60 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,800 seconds. Location Des Moines, IA says 61 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,000 this lasted 3 seconds. One observer there the area was 62 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,080 grassland by the highway with trees in the background. 63 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,920 Shape Light color white. Estimated size unknown. 64 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,160 Viewed from land direction from viewer S angle of elevation 25°, 65 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,560 Closest distance 400 feet. Estimated speed over 65 mph. 66 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,080 Characteristic lights on object Description. 67 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,680 A bright white light was flying over the was flying above the 68 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,360 ground. The bright white object was 69 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,120 approximately 50 feet off the ground. 70 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:10,480 It streaked over the ground area travelling over 65 miles an 71 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,320 hour. Its light was flickering so fast 72 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,000 you barely noticed the flickering. 73 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,160 There appeared to be only one object and it did not have a 74 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,920 discernible shape. There was no trail of light or 75 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,760 substance left behind in the air. 76 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,320 The sky was still dark black. The area over which the light 77 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,000 crossed was grassland by the highway with trees in the 78 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,760 background. Yeah, kind of hard to imagine 79 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,760 that the US government would be out there testing secret 80 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,360 projects in the middle of nowhere. 81 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,480 Iowa. This one says happened at 82 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:46,840 11/29/24 location Carroll, IA Details Highway from SAC City to 83 00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:51,640 urban Shape like color White Estimates Estimated Size twice 84 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,320 as white as a star viewed from land 25 Closest distance in the 85 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,400 night sky Estimated speed Stationary Explanation Starling 86 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,640 Possible lights on object. I saw a line of seven lights 87 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,440 stretching across the sky. The second light in the line 88 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,480 moved perpendicularly N stopped and then suddenly disappeared. 89 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,960 I was driving to work on Black Friday morning. 90 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,400 After leaving SAC City, I turned onto the highway toward Auburn 91 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,680 Lakeview. About 5 minutes into the drive, 92 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,360 I noticed a line of seven lights stretching from the horizon to 93 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,760 about 1/3 up in the sky. The lights were as bright as the 94 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,480 biggest stars, if not physically larger by appearance. 95 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,320 The second light in the line suddenly speed perpendicular to 96 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,560 the others, stopping 5° away and holding position. 97 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,280 I kept sight of them until I reached Auburn and they never 98 00:05:40,280 --> 00:05:41,960 moved from their spot in the sky. 99 00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:43,800 Doesn't sound like a satellite to me. 100 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:48,200 After I hit the curve 4 miles from Auburn, I lost sight of 101 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,120 that part of the sky. Upon turning into Auburn, I 102 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,200 regained my view of the sky, but the lights had disappeared, 103 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,040 leaving only the normal sky. Man, I'm telling you these 104 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,360 sayings. I do believe that they're 105 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,920 actually just coming out and and camouflaging at least as he 106 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,400 start as he start like satellites. 107 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,680 It's almost like they've caught on to him or something. 108 00:06:08,280 --> 00:06:13,080 This one here is 11/23/24 says a duration of proxy, 5 minutes. 109 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,120 Observers one location, Bluegrass, Iowa location 110 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,680 details. Back of house just over the 111 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,840 trees on the other side of the river on the Illinois side. 112 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,160 Shape Light golden. Color golden and red. 113 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,560 Estimated size the size of a full moon. 114 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,160 Sounds pretty big, man. View from land. 115 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,400 I was facing S looking over the Mississippi River. 116 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,200 Angle of elevation 35°. Closest distance probably a few 117 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,880 1000 feet. Estimated speed faster than a 118 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,600 helicopter. Characteristic lights on object 119 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,920 changed color. Animals reacted. 120 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,880 A golden light was stationary for a long period of time and 121 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,800 then began flying east where a second and third light emerged, 122 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,440 1 golden and one red. I got up out of bed at 123 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,960 approximately 2130 to use the bathroom where I saw a very 124 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,560 large light bright enough to reflect this light on the on the 125 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,120 water. I thought it's strange to see 126 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,880 the moon in that direction, so I got up to our sliding glass 127 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,920 door. That is when I saw what looked 128 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,960 to be a very large star flickering low to the ground 129 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,720 just above the trees. There is an island in the middle 130 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,200 of the Mississippi River that is full of trees. 131 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,960 After watching it for a few minutes, I thought it to be very 132 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,440 beautiful. My cat wouldn't go outside. 133 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,800 She always takes every opportunity to go out no matter 134 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,320 the time of day. It began moving to the east 135 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,720 following the river. It was not moving extremely slow 136 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,600 like the one I saw in May. It was moving slightly faster 137 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,840 than a helicopter. There was no noise as it was 138 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,160 moving by. I saw another golden light 139 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,880 emerge to the side of it and then a third light to the side 140 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,400 of the second light, but the light was red. 141 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,200 I watched it fly along the river and then crossover to the Isle 142 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:04,080 side I rent to the house, but I could not see it any longer. 143 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,120 I did not take a video of the sighting, I just didn't think of 144 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,840 it. I do have video of the sighting 145 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,760 in May and the sighting last month during the full moon when 146 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,760 we were supposed to be able to see the comet not far from 147 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,600 Venus. Well, it sounds like a 148 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,040 spectacular sighting to me. I mean, just seeing the same out 149 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:28,400 there over the river like that. This one here is dated 10/20/24. 150 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,360 Five seconds Observers one location, Cedar Rapids. 151 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,520 My backyard shape. Chevron collar. 5 white lights, 152 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,240 size unknown. View from land direction from 153 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,280 viewer northwest angle of elevation is 67°, closest 154 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,520 distance 1500 feet. Estimated speed unknown. 155 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,760 Lights on object, 5 white lights in a Chevron formation. 156 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,160 It says I observed 4 sightings within a 10 minute span, which I 157 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,560 assumed involve the same craft circling the area. 158 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,480 The first sighting, multiple lights, 5 or 6 appeared overhead 159 00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:02,400 but did not seem to belong to a single craft. 160 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,200 The lights seem to dance in the air. 161 00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:07,760 Second sighting. About a minute later, I saw a 162 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,480 uniform Chevron formation of five lights. 163 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,960 Third sighting. The sighting was identical to 164 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,680 the 2nd. 4th sighting, similar to the second and third 165 00:09:16,680 --> 00:09:18,840 sightings, but moving in the opposite direction. 166 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,880 The first 3 sightings moved from northwest to southeast while the 167 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:27,640 4th travelled SE to northwest. The lights were solid, single 168 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,240 white and collar and silent. I used phone apps Flight Tracker 169 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,080 24 in Heavens Above to check for airplanes or satellites, but 170 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,160 there were none in the area at the time. 171 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,120 I managed to capture a picture of the third sighting as it flew 172 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,520 directly overhead. Pretty wild stuff, man. 173 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,000 It's just amazing what people are seeing here. 174 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,200 Just amazing. We'll go ahead and take a look 175 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:53,920 at a few more here. This one's dated 9/24/24. 176 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,760 Shape Orb color Gray, 20 to 30 feet diameter viewed from land. 177 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,360 Angle of elevation 85, closest distance 1000 feet. 178 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,200 Question mark Estimated speed 50 to 100 mph. 179 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,280 Question mark says large Gray orb hovering silently heading 180 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,400 east. This Gray orb like object was 181 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,720 first noticed directly above us and kind of looked like a flock 182 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,080 of birds, but there was no movement aside from the 183 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,080 direction it was going. It was almost as if it had some 184 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,480 sort of cloaking as it was hard to focus the eyes on it. 185 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,040 It was totally silent and steadily moved at the same pace 186 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,960 to the east. It wasn't until a plane very 187 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,400 high up crossing to the north actually crossed in front of the 188 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,520 object that I realized it was much larger and higher up than I 189 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,080 had previously thought by then. I have my phone out and I tried 190 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:44,120 to zoom in on it but it looked hazy as I tried to focus in on 191 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,840 it. Got a couple pictures here. 192 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:51,040 Does look like a pretty large silver grayish orb quite thing. 193 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,560 I just don't know what this thing is but I'm looking at the 194 00:10:55,560 --> 00:10:59,760 picture though honestly he's got 1 circle that he's referring to 195 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,400 it. This thing is an orb and then 196 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,680 I'm seeing two other bright lights and then I'm seeing up in 197 00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:10,920 the in the second picture. It's almost to me like a flying 198 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,640 saucer moving in. I don't know, maybe a cigar 199 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,080 shaped UFO. You see it in the first picture 200 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,400 all right, and it's kind of like way off in the distance. 201 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,800 And then in the second photograph he has, it's 202 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,640 noticeably closer. I'm not sure if he even noticed 203 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,160 this or not. It's over at new fork. 204 00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:30,200 It's this is the one. If you go to new fork and you go 205 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,760 to Iowa and look at those there, you can see the pictures of it. 206 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,960 It's it's crazy. I don't know. 207 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:36,920 I don't know what this guy thought. 208 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,920 I, I almost feel like, I don't know, maybe this is an airplane 209 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,280 he's talking about, but it doesn't look like an airplane to 210 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,000 me. I mean, it looks like a classic 211 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,080 flying saucer disc. It's almost to me like this guy 212 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:53,120 saw this Ord thing, noticed it. Maybe there were a couple other 213 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,560 orbs flying around there. And then in the background 214 00:11:55,560 --> 00:11:57,880 there's like this mechanical looking flying saucer or 215 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,400 something. I just don't get it. 216 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,560 It's like these things are showing up and the types of 217 00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:06,760 craft that are showing up or these phenomena, whatever you 218 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,520 want to call them, these UFOs, you're, you're getting different 219 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:16,600 types show up in the same event, which that seems almost new to 220 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,800 me. Very, very weird stuff. 221 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,800 This one is dated 10/16/24. Says duration approximately 6 to 222 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,440 7 minutes. Number of observers 2. 223 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,480 Location Montpelier, IA toward the West of Mississippi River, 224 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,240 hovering over about six to seven minutes, then through north 225 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,440 Shape Triangle color green, red. Estimated size unknown. 226 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:42,560 Viewed from the land direction from viewer W angle of elevation 227 00:12:42,560 --> 00:12:44,920 80°. Closest distance maybe a mile up 228 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,440 in the sky. Estimated speed, hovering, then 229 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,720 quickly speed away. Explanation Aircraft. 230 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,160 Yeah, that sounds real Likely, Probable, probable if they think 231 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,880 characteristics change color. I went outside to view the full 232 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,720 moon at a comet and I found three lights shaped like a 233 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,680 triangle blinking green and red. On video it looks like a solid 234 00:13:04,680 --> 00:13:07,600 white light. The comet or planet, as there 235 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,960 was no tail, was at the horizon to the southwest that on the 236 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,720 Illinois side of the Mississippi River. 237 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,720 The lights were higher in the sky to the West, changing color 238 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,440 from green to red every second or two. 239 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,320 After approximately 6 to 7 minutes it flew quickly a little 240 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,080 to the north and stopped. At this time I could see the 241 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,960 green in the video. After about a minute it flew off 242 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,520 to the north and downward. I could not see it anymore due 243 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,480 to the trees. I got to tell you, that does not 244 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,920 sound like an airplane to me. I'm just I'm just telling you 245 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,560 that right now. That's way too strange acting. 246 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:47,360 OK, moving along here now. This one here is from 9/25/24 247 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:52,800 says location Plymouth, Iowa. Estimated arc of travel is a 248 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,920 point between Manly and Kenset, Iowa. 249 00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:00,600 Traveling SE across Plymouth, IA shape, cigar collar black and 250 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,160 white. Estimated size 10X width of much 251 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:08,680 lower level medical helicopter. Viewed from land looking 252 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:14,760 northwest and southwest, 24 I guess 24 miles, closest distance 253 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,120 airplane altitude lower the National Guard jets. 254 00:14:17,560 --> 00:14:20,440 Estimated speed slower than a medical helicopter or crop 255 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,640 duster. And then of course, explanation. 256 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,840 Starlink. Yeah, with lights on. 257 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:30,760 Object description Large, silent black hot dog or cigar shaped 258 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,760 object with eight pairs of lights, one pair shutting off 259 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,400 during flight. So far not sounding that much 260 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,040 like Starlink. Estimated arc of travel is a 261 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,960 point between Manly and Kinset, Iowa traveling SE across 262 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,720 Plymouth, IA. I exited the north facing 263 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,960 service door of our garage to feed an outdoor semi feral cat 264 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,160 and proceeded to walk down a sidewalk that extends along the 265 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,960 east and N sides of the garage to the West driveway. 266 00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,640 As I turned the northeast corner of the garage I immediately 267 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,560 noticed a series of bright lights arching across the sky 268 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,160 and a northwest to southeast direction. 269 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,800 What's the start? Links that I have seen are going 270 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,600 from usually from almost from West to east or maybe even like 271 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:18,040 a slightly northwest to northeast. 272 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,440 So I don't know. First, as I first assumed these 273 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,760 were a series of meteors that would be weird, but they were 274 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,280 arranged in a uniform pattern of eight pairs of lights with 275 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,280 uniform spaces in between them. The lights were also embedded 276 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,440 with a black hot dog shaped object which was darker than the 277 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,400 sky. OK, bingo does not sound like a 278 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,440 satellite. The satellites are clearly these 279 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,400 individual objects moving through the sky space, and 280 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,240 they're reflecting sunlight. I briefly took my eyes off the 281 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,720 lights to see if the cat was in her usual waiting place outside, 282 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,200 and when I looked at the objects again, the second pair of lights 283 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,040 had turned off. The cat was waiting in her usual 284 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,240 place and proceeded to follow me to the rear service door so she 285 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,200 could stay in the night in the garage for safety. 286 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,760 The cat did not seem affected by the objects and acted normally. 287 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,200 The object made no sound. I see they're calling it an 288 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,360 object and there were no visible exhaust trails. 289 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,520 A Mercy One emergency helicopter regularly travels across 290 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,520 Plymouth and northwest to northeast trips between Mason 291 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,160 City, IA and the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. 292 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,600 Even though this object was at a higher elevation than the 293 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,480 helicopter usually travels, it was much wider and was traveling 294 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,720 at a slower speed. The helicopter can also be heard 295 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,080 as it approaches Plymouth. We also have a small crop duster 296 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,560 plane in the area that operates during the daytime and 297 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,400 occasionally it makes turns over the town during its work. 298 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,840 This object was travelling considerably slower than a crop 299 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:48,400 duster at a slow leisurely pace. We have occasional National 300 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,680 Guard jets that fly in this area leaving contrails. 301 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,440 The Jets are seen as tiny specks in the sky. 302 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,920 This object was much larger and flying lower than a jet, but not 303 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,680 as low as a medical helicopter or a crop dusting plane. 304 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,520 Upon returning outside with a camera, the object was no longer 305 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,040 visible. Now look so cigar shaped object 306 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,319 with lights on it traveling lower than a jet airplane. 307 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:15,400 This is not, I repeat, not Starlink. 308 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:19,560 Not my opinion at least. Wild stuff this one here says. 309 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,880 Happened 8/10/24. Duration 5 to 10 minutes. 310 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:24,960 Observers 2. Location. 311 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:30,560 Rimson, Iowa Shaped tear drop color black viewed from land 312 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,880 angle of elevation N 17°, closest distance two to four 313 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,000 miles. Description Stationary floating 314 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,280 black object in the sky. Driving with my spouse and two 315 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:45,280 kids westbound on Hwy. 3 between Marcus, Iowa and Rimson, Iowa 316 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:50,040 between 8:00 and 8:30 AM. North of the highway are all 317 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,440 corn or swimming fields interspersed with large wind 318 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,520 turbines. I am driving and look to my 319 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,520 right to see a large black object floating in the sky 320 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,560 roughly at the height of a windmill blade tip. 321 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:04,240 Let's kind of get your attention. 322 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,760 The windmills were scattered across the farmland. 323 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,920 The weather was sunny and clear. The object was spherical but 324 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,160 with a tip at the bottom. I thought it might have been a 325 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,880 hot air balloon as its shape was similar. 326 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:18,920 My spouse saw the object as well. 327 00:18:19,120 --> 00:18:22,360 However, it didn't make sense to fly a hot air balloon in the 328 00:18:22,360 --> 00:18:24,880 middle of a field with wind turbines. 329 00:18:25,360 --> 00:18:29,360 It was also charcoal or black collared, which I have never 330 00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:33,720 seen on a hot air balloon. The road is slightly hilly. 331 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,560 I watched it as I drove until the geography obstructed our 332 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:41,080 view. It did not appear to move, which 333 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,480 if it were a hot air balloon that had found itself amongst 334 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,200 the wind turbines, that likely would have landed. 335 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,200 OK, we'll stop right here. I'm pretty sure you're not 336 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,960 allowed to fly hot air balloons amongst the wind turbines. 337 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,280 These things are like, I don't know, 6-7 hundred foot tall 338 00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,040 maybe, maybe more. OK, they're around. 339 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,840 I don't think you're supposed to be flying hot air between these 340 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,200 fields of wind turbines. I think you're supposed to keep 341 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,200 a clear distance. Pretty sure just like them cell 342 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,560 phone towers and everything else it says. 343 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,120 I didn't see a basket or any sort of tethering to the ground, 344 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,760 but it had that upside down teardrop shape. 345 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,160 It appeared to shine in the sun somewhat. 346 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,040 The object was a few miles away, maybe two to four. 347 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,080 It looks smaller than the Turbine Blaze, which are 348 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:27,160 approximately 150 feet. So it was maybe 50 to 75 feet in 349 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,320 diameter and slightly more in height. 350 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,120 There was no other traffic in the area. 351 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,840 Well, if that was somebody in a very strange hot air balloon 352 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:40,000 with no gondola, they had a death wish flying among those 353 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,560 turbines because those things will do more than chew up bald 354 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,440 eagles. They'll chew up that hot air 355 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,320 balloon like nothing flat. If you happen to fly in one of 356 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:48,760 those blades, those blades are flying. 357 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,640 I don't know. I think they're like, I'd have 358 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,200 to look it up. Someone can probably tell me 359 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,080 about, I mean, you know, even in a modest wind, I mean, those, 360 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,840 those, those big blades are going in that circle and the tip 361 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,640 of that blade is really moving. So just imagine if you were in a 362 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,440 hot air balloon and you got near one of those blades that got 363 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,760 sucked in. That, that, that balloon is 364 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,280 destroyed. So I can't imagine anybody who's 365 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,160 smart enough to have gotten their certification to fly a hot 366 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:17,440 air balloon would be so reckless as to to fly among these these 367 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:18,840 things unless there were somehow distress. 368 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,040 But like she said, they're not reporting an adult, a gondola or 369 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,760 any kind of a basket below the balloon. 370 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:29,520 That's a weird one there. This one here is from 7:24, 371 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,320 7/12/24. It says 3 to 5 seconds. 372 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:38,680 Observer 1 Pilot Location Eagle Grove, IA Location Details 373 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,920 Object observed slowly descending over a cornfield 374 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,480 while driving South on Hwy. 17. Shape Rectangle Color black. 375 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,600 Estimated size between 12 and 25 feet. 376 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,920 View from land direction from viewer S SW Angle of elevation 377 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:57,360 20° Closest distance 150 feet. Estimated speed two to five mile 378 00:20:57,360 --> 00:21:01,000 per hour. Summary A 20 foot drone like box 379 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,880 observed in daylight conditions. Well I don't know how many. 380 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,840 How many drones could be described as a box because 381 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,120 they've got to have propellers on the order to fly right? 382 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:17,040 Observer background pilot status I'm a private pilot, clear to 383 00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:19,720 fly solo. I have logged approximately 20 384 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,640 official flight hours of my own Cessna 172 with my flight 385 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,600 instructor. Additionally, I own a Piper 386 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,720 Warrior 2, an ultra light model of a Piper Cub, and a flow in a 387 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,920 Rotax powered parachute. My experience includes operating 388 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,640 and owning 4 different powered paragliders. 389 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,440 OK, so this is somebody who clearly is comfortable flying 390 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,800 and flying close to the air. I guess you would say he's 391 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,440 flying around these paragliders and small airplanes and if 392 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,720 you're going to fly those things successfully, you need to have 393 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,200 situational awareness, he says. I hold a doctorate in financial 394 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,000 management. My dissertation debunked the 395 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,000 mean variance hypothesis, a financial model that once won a 396 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,000 Nobel Prize. Although I primarily worked in 397 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,880 areas such as artificial intelligence, algorithm, 398 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,160 banking, digital currency creation, and venture capital, 399 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,440 my work requires the application of scientific methods. 400 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,280 Wow, you got a guy with a PHT? He's up flying around these 401 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,840 motorized parachutes. What a character. 402 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,160 I do not self identify as a scientist due to the financial 403 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,400 focus of my work, but my academic background includes 404 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,520 rigorous statistical training and use of the scientific 405 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,840 method. Feel like I'm talking to an 406 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,720 older version of Young Sheldon. On the morning of Friday, July 407 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,280 12th, 2024, at approximately 11:00 AM, possibly between 10:30 408 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,160 and 11:30, I was driving South on Hwy. 17 just South of Eagle 409 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,120 Grove, IA. My wife and our two puppies were 410 00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:45,800 with me in the car heading to Fort Dodge for shopping. 411 00:22:46,120 --> 00:22:48,160 I had not consumed any drugs or alcohol. 412 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,400 I kind of think this guy sounds like he's never consumed any 413 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,800 drugs or alcohol. The the weather was clear, with 414 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:56,960 excellent visibility and no clouds in the sky. 415 00:22:57,360 --> 00:23:00,640 As we approached a farm acreage on the right side of the road, I 416 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,040 noticed a peculiar black object hovering in the air. 417 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,480 At first it appeared to be a drone. 418 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,880 The object was rectangular, resembling a thick square pizza 419 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,400 box. I observed the object for three 420 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,920 to five seconds. It had solid sides at right 421 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,480 angles and was approximately in a 166 ratio. 422 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,080 The underside featured dark details that I couldn't 423 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,800 identify, possibly propulsion or landing mechanisms. 424 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:30,200 A central feature protruded upward less than twice the 425 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,640 height of the object side walls, with smaller features at each 426 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,000 corner. Notably, these corner features 427 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,960 were positioned at the edges. Unlike typical drone motors that 428 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,760 are inset to accommodate propellers, there were no 429 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:47,920 visible propellers. The object rotated about 30° 430 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:52,240 counterclockwise and begin to descend slowly and smoothly. 431 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:57,680 It was remarkably stable, liking the typical wobble of smaller 432 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,120 drones. As it descended behind a barn, I 433 00:24:01,120 --> 00:24:04,520 realized with astonishment that it was behind the barn, not in 434 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:08,960 front of it, which indicated its size was larger than I initially 435 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,880 thought, likely between 12 to 25 feet across. 436 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,000 The size exceeded that of any commercially available drone 437 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,960 I've encountered. Based on my observation, the 438 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,240 object could have been man made, potentially a drone capable of 439 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:23,880 carrying a pilot and a passenger. 440 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,040 However, its unique features and dimensions set it apart from 441 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,560 standard drones. I explained to my wife. 442 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,200 Did you see that? That was either a gigantic drone 443 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,200 or a UFO. She was preoccupied with the 444 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,200 puppies and didn't see the object. 445 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,000 When I look back, if you pass the acreage, the object had 446 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,240 descended into or behind the cornfield to our right. 447 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,120 That's crazy. Now, I know that they do use 448 00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:54,800 drones to spread insecticide or, you know, different chemicals on 449 00:24:55,400 --> 00:25:00,440 on corn crops the same way that they do with crop dusters in a 450 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,280 way. But this does not sound like 451 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:03,440 that. And you would have thought you 452 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,000 heard the description he gives us. 453 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,400 This thing is so bizarre, man. This sounds like this would be a 454 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,800 really interesting person just to sit down and talk to you. 455 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:16,080 Sounds like a really smart guy. Super observant, Detailed, 456 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:20,080 detailed report. Very, very cool. 457 00:25:20,360 --> 00:25:22,120 OK, we'll go ahead and we'll do a few more here. 458 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,240 This setting happened on 6/30/24. 459 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,800 It says duration 15 seconds. Number of observers. 460 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:33,400 One location, Hiawatha, Iowa. Shape sphere collar metallic 461 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:38,280 Viewed from land direction from viewer S angle of elevation 60° 462 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,920 closest distance one mile. Description That silver metallic 463 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,480 globe hovers stationary and clear sky suddenly disappears. 464 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,360 I was driving South on I-380 at Tara Terrace Rd. 465 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,840 The sky was clear blue and the sun was completely visible and 466 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,640 over the horizon to my back. I then saw something shiny into 467 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,920 my front off in the near distance. 468 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,040 The inner straight traverses left and the glare went away 469 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,600 making the object clear. It was a silver metallic round 470 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,560 globe, hovering, not moving. It was very clear what I saw. 471 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,360 I was wide awake and on my way to work. 472 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,800 It was not a plain balloon or satellite. 473 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,400 It did not have anything attached to it, no lights and it 474 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,840 just disappeared. It did not move left or right. 475 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:29,960 It was about the size of a semi truck and was at an angle of 45 476 00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:34,440 to 60° in the sky. Man, that is wild. 477 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,600 Just driving along there on the Interstate of Des Moines, see 478 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:42,000 this large silver globe. These orbs are so weird because 479 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,840 sometimes they just seem to be like made out of light and then 480 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,160 other times they seem metallic like this. 481 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,200 We'll do three more of them here. 482 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,400 These have really been very a lot of good sightings here in 483 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:56,000 Iowa. This one is dated 6424, says 484 00:26:56,360 --> 00:27:01,040 observers to Merrill, IA. Near Merrill, IA looking N 485 00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:02,960 shaped orb estimated size unknown. 486 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:07,680 Viewed from land direction N angle of elevation 45 closest 487 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,720 distance middle atmosphere estimated speed 1000 plus mph 488 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,800 Characteristics Lights on object emitted Other objects change 489 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:19,760 color, animals reacted. Description Fast moving orbs of 490 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,000 light. My father and I were sitting on 491 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,160 our back porch looking N near Merrill, IA. 492 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:29,720 Went around 2:00 AM, White, blue and sometimes red lights begin 493 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,880 shooting around the sky. We saw a total of 20 plus 494 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,920 different lights shooting around, stopping, then moving 495 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,120 again. During this time we noticed what 496 00:27:38,120 --> 00:27:41,440 seemed to be military aircraft heading toward the commotion. 497 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,480 I've never seen anything like this in my life. 498 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,040 It was almost like a space war. That's cool. 499 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,040 Yeah. In the middle of Iowa, you've 500 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,560 got these orbs flying around, and then you've got these 501 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,800 military jets apparently reacting to it. 502 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,080 That really makes you wonder what's going on there. 503 00:27:57,360 --> 00:27:59,120 OK, we'll do two more here and we'll finish up. 504 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:03,080 This one's dated 6/12/23. It says duration 20 seconds. 505 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:08,200 Number observers 1 Johnston IA, Merrill Hay Road and Wynwood Rd. 506 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:13,040 Shaped triangle left a trail Black equilateral triangle. 507 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,200 Day times. Looks like this is a 4:30 PM 508 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,240 sighting in the middle of summer, so clearly light outside 509 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,440 and a car waiting for a stop light. 510 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,480 I saw a black equilateral triangle object working in a 511 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,200 cloud. I saw it in a separation within 512 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,040 the cloud. It was a partially cloudy day 513 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,200 and sunny. The clouds at the time seem to 514 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,240 be at mid level, between 26,000 feet and 31,000 feet. 515 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,440 I am not a meteorologist, this is just my guess based on the 516 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,040 conditions at the time. The object was at the same level 517 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,480 or slightly above the clouds. The object was a perfect 518 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:51,920 triangle, 60 by 60 by 60, with no clear visible lights or 519 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,640 markings. However, being that high up in 520 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,120 the sky, there would have been some. 521 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:01,000 Based on its altitude and how identified objects look from the 522 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,720 ground, I estimated the size to be at least 1 1/2 times that at 523 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,160 a Boeing 747. The object appeared motionless. 524 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:12,080 Something the size a triangle craft the size of a twice the 525 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,000 size of a 747 just chilling up there at 5-6 miles up in the 526 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,040 air. Yeah, that, my friends, does not 527 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,960 sound like a drone to me. Very, very cool sighting. 528 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,280 OK, we'll do one last one here now. 529 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:24,440 These have been so much fun today. 530 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:26,680 This one happened a few years ago. 531 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:30,720 It says April 30th, 2020 Duration 2 minutes. 532 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,560 Observers 2 location Des Moines, IA Shaped disk characteristics 533 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,360 Lights on object, aircraft nearby Electrical or magnetic 534 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,400 effects Missing time. Wow. 535 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,600 Hovering saucer nears ground then disappears into the sky. 536 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:48,760 This UFO was observed at 9 O 9:00 PM on April 30th, 2020 in 537 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,960 Des Moines, IA approximately 5 minutes from the Des Moines 538 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,840 International Airport as planes could be seen and heard taking 539 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,280 off nearby. The object, a disc shaped craft, 540 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,440 was roughly the length and width of an average home and hovered 541 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,760 approximately 200 feet above me in a residential neighborhood. 542 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:09,680 I mean it's right there. A house sized flying saucer 543 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:14,120 flying 200 feet overhead. The most striking feature was a 544 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,840 light at the center of the underside of the craft. 545 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,120 The surface was smooth and shiny, resembling the pristine 546 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,560 metal of a 1950s car which extended the red light. 547 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:28,040 Metallic branches extended from the red light toward the edges 548 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,800 of the craft. Initially, the craft appeared 549 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:35,760 blue, but seemed to shift to a teal or greenish hue upon closer 550 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,600 observation. Its surface was smooth, with no 551 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,600 visible bolts or screws, and the bluish teal material appeared 552 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,760 almost translucent and soft. The craft hovered and moved 553 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,080 dramatically, not falling a straight path. 554 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:54,600 It emitted a low rumbling sound but produced no exhaust odor or 555 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,080 emissions typically associated with conventional aircraft. 556 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,000 As it flew away, the craft disappeared into the distance. 557 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,240 When I first spotted the UFO, I attempted to record a video, but 558 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,840 the effort was unsuccessful. While holding my camera, the 559 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,160 craft seemed to interfere with it, causing the focus to shift 560 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,440 and the camera to pull away, similar to the repelling force 561 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,480 between two magnets. The craft also featured a white 562 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,640 light on its top, which was visible from a distance. 563 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,320 This side view illustration provided is a rough sketch for 564 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,840 reference, but the view from directly beneath the craft is 565 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,960 more accurate. Is this was when it came 566 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,640 closest. Man what an what an encounter. 567 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:40,240 I mean to see this large, some would say giant flying saucer 568 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:44,320 just hovering there. Wow 200 feet over the suburbs. 569 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,080 Crazy. Anyway, great great sightings. 570 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:48,600 Hope you enjoyed the program today. 571 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,920 Like I said, don't forget to like, follow, subscribe. 572 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,800 It really does help the program.
