Where is UFO country? To find out, PM consulted the Center for UFO Studies, which maintains a database of sightings reported from 1947 to 2005. Illinois-based CUFOS gathers data from UFO reporting groups and public records, including Project Blue Book. (If several people report the same sighting, CUFOS registers it as a single event.) For a broad comparison, we ranked both metropolitan and more sparsely settled counties.
Why did these 10 top the list? Perhaps because some are close to military training zones called Special Use Airspace. An uptick in sightings over Santa Rosa County, Fla., could stem from the presence of an air wing that tests every fighter, bomber, unmanned aerial vehicle and weapon in the Air Force inventory. Military refueling lanes crisscross the nation, and lights from air tankers and warplanes flying at night in close formation could appear as triangles of light from the ground.
Psychology may also play a role. Westmoreland County, Pa. (pop. 362,326), which records more sightings than the metro Houston area (pop. 3.9 million), includes Kecksburg, the location of a reputed 1965 UFO crash. Residents there may be more likely to report strange lights to a UFO group.
Why would space monsters want to hit the Action News chopper? Why would space monsters who want to sneak up and hit the Action News chopper turn on aviation lights? Why is there a large correlation between people seeing lights in the sky and the locations of Air Force bases?
Maybe in LA they think UFO stands for Undocumented Foreign Occupier?
Some hypothesize the time correlates pretty closely with the detonation of the 1st atomic bomb. Understanding, and applying, atomic fission would be a notable step in a species scientific advancement. This 'tripwire' event was monitored by aliens, as the theory goes, who have since dropped by to observe.
VERY INTERESTING.
THX.
All or nearly all the reports in Yakima County, Wa actually do originate in military flares, unlike some other places. The Yakima Firing Range is nearby and I have seen the flares there myself over the years. The first time, before I knew the explanation, they did spook me.
There were prop-driven planes which could hit 400 or a little more than 400 at the end of WW-II but none of them cruised much more than around 250. First jets could cruise at 500 or so and around 47 - 50 you’d have been seeing F80s, captured 262s, and skunk-works versions of whatever Germans had in blueprints as of early 45 which included swept-wing planes which could likely hit mach, at least in a shallow dive. People flying around in dc3s would have been seeing planes moving at three or four times their own speed.
Naw.
It’s yer breath, I tell ya—yer breath!
How people can so easily dismiss the first press release
FROM THE AIR FORCE
is beyond me.
Yer groping just doesn’t cut it in terms of the data, myserio.
YUP.
Isn’t there one that describes the use of a weapon akin to a nuclear bomb?
I live in the #2 hotspot and I have NEVER seen a UFO?????? Somehow that isn’t right.
Wishing for one is not quite advised nor wise.
Speaking of maps to ponder . . .

Down in the page are several maps of ‘future earth changes’ for America . . . from several different sources.
One may be Hopi.
