MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Bright white lights and strange, triangular shaped objects, Tennesseans are reporting some unusual things overhead. Don't expect that to stop anytime soon, a local group that investigates UFO close encounters says sightings are on the rise.
For decades millions of people have reported seeing UFO's. A recent poll shows one in 12 Americans have seen a mysterious object in the sky, and that a third of adults believe it's likely aliens have visited earth. While some say the increase in volume of reports in Tennessee are enough to make any investigator sit up and take notice, others say it's all in their heads.
The skies over Tennessee have been busy lately, but some say, it's not your typical air traffic. A commercial airline pilot from Memphis shows us where he spotted a UFO. He pointed out the UFO's path, saying, "It started here, passed over about this speed and leveled out down there."
This pilot, who doesn't want to be identified for fear he'll lose his job, says he saw a UFO in the sky over Cordova around 9:45pm on November 24, 2009.
"[It was] absolutely not an airplane, not an airship, this object speed it was flying at, the shape there is nothing in the air even similar in the least bit to what I saw," the pilot claimed.
The pilot, who has more than 25 years experience, said the black triangle he saw was flying as fast as 1,000 miles per hour, but was completely silent. He said it looked exactly like YouTube video of what an estimated 13,000 saw flying over Belgium in 1990.
"I could not honestly believe what I saw," he amazed. "[I] stood there for honestly a few minutes thinking what I was going to do or who I was going to report this to."
The pilot reported it to the Tennessee Mutual UFO Network, or MUFON. MUFON is the largest UFO research and education organization in the United States. The non-profit group is made up of volunteers like Alyson Burgess.
"All we do is if someone reports an object we try our best to figure out if we can identify it," said Burgess. "If we can't identify it it's called an 'unknown.'"
The pilot's sighting is classified as 'unknown,' but Burgess says 90% of sightings can be attributed to things like airplanes or meteors. What the group can't explain is the uptick in reports.
"[It] seems like it's going to be a busy year for us," said Burgess.
The pilot's was one of 30 sightings in Tennessee from October to December of last year. Typically, there are between 4 and 8 a month. There have been 10 sightings so far this year.
State MUFON Director, Eddie Middleton said the skies have never been so active in Tennessee.
"It's like building to some sort of crescendo getting more intense all the time," said Middleton. "I don't know where it's leading; it's getting more intense, something's got to give here before long landing on the White House lawn or whatever......"
If the request to be taken to our leader, I will gladly drive them to DC myself. As long as they promise to take him with them, too...
Thanks thanks.
That one looks like one Joya and I saw through binoculars . . . was quite high up and stationary for 20+ minutes.
Zero is not a Vulcan.
He's a Goa'uld.
Maybe Farahkan’s Mother Wheel?
Well, being a Biblical literalist, I believe the earth is God’s footstool, so knowing how gorgeous this planet is, I can’t imagine how wonderful the rest of the heavens are. I also hope humans are the only fallen creatures in this physical universe. :)
“Typically, there are between 4 and 8 a month. There have been 10 sightings so far this year.”
Hmmm. That’s five per month. Don’t quite see the intense surge there.
That’s freakin’ funny! True, but funny!
Dr Lynne D Kitei (MD)’s website on the PHOENIX LIGHTS

She was recently on C2C as the 13th anniversary approaches.
Are you sure he’s not a
Goa’uld.
discard . . .
or . . . Goa’uld afterbirth . . .
or . . . discarded Goa’uld experimental anal sphincter replacement?
Your photo posts . . .
Is your intent to suggest that
sucking up to lies from satan is an attractive fun thing to do?
Thanks! That lapsteel made my night.
I wish some aliens would come take me LOL!
Thanks,
interesting videos, verrrry interesting!
You are quite welcome.
I thought so, too.
Seems to me, though . . . that the critters have
‘gotten to’
the good Doc. . . . evidently during her missing time.
There’s this new age flavor to some of her emotive words about it all.
Sad, that.
