DENVER – It’s a mile high mystery in the skies over Denver.
Strange objects caught on camera flying over the city and nobody can explain it.
We first learned about these sightings when a metro area man, who does not want to be identified brought us his home video. He captured the images on his digital camera from a hilltop in Federal Heights looking south toward downtown Denver.
He said, “The flying objects appear around noon or 1:00 p.m. at least a couple of times a week.” The strangest part is they are flying too fast to see with the naked eye, but when we slowed down the video, several UFOs appear.
We altered the color contrast to make it easier to see. You can take a look for yourself by watching the video clip.
We wanted to verify the video we saw was legitimate and not doctored in anyway. So our photojournalist set up his camera in the same spot, and shot video from just before noon until just after 1:00 p.m. He also captured something unexplained on video.
Aviation expert Steve Cowell is a former commercial pilot, instructor and FAA accident prevention counselor.
He thought he would have a logical explanation, until he watched the video. “That is not an airplane, that is not a helicopter, those are not birds, I can’t identify it,” he said. He also told us the objects are not insects.
He said he knows of no aircraft that flies as fast. He did tell us there is one other possibility. “Perhaps there’s some sort of debris that is being raised up by some of the atmospheric winds.”
But in his professional opinion, “As it fits the definition, it’s an unidentified flying object.”
The FAA tracks all air traffic in Colorado and across the country. The FAA sent us a statement that says, “We`ve checked with air traffic control and no one has had any reports of the activity you described…nor have any of our employees observed anything of this nature either visually or on their radar displays.”
The North American Aerospace Defense Command is located in Colorado Springs. It keeps an eye on the skies in case of an air attack against the United States.
NORAD sent us this statement, “Our Command Center reviewed their records and they did not have any noted air activity in the Denver area during the times you indicated.”
The man who brought the video to our attention believes the UFOs are launching and landing near 56th Ave. and Clay Street in Denver. A Map shows only homes in the area.
So are they UFOs? A secret military test? Floating debris?
The answer is anything but clear. What do you think this UFO is?

Pinging the unidentified aerial phenomena list (ufo) ..
Already with the legal pot?
NJCP Ping!
Always grainy photos that are inconclusive. Same with bigfoot.
You can never find a good camera or a competent cameraman when you need one.

The other thread was better but I guess search isn’t working.
lol
they will all be seeing strange lights all the time soon
I took one look at it and realized it was some out of focus insects flying around close to the camera.
don’t UFO’s ever come out in the day time anymore?
This one was alright until downer deb showed up.
I would say that’s pretty creepy - and verified by the TV station’s own cameraman/camera.
Too fast to see with the naked eye? How fast would that be? Anyone?
Insects flying right in front of the lens.
So, how did he see them? He's identified the neighborhood where they're landing so why doesn't he film there and maybe solve the mystery?
I searched “ufo” and neither thread came up. The search function sucks on FR...
Actually I’m the first one to agree with you, but that footage was neither grainy nor from a unreliable source. The news crew DUPLICATED the find with their own cameras and equipment. The video from the news camera was not grainy. The darn thing was moving so fast that was the best the camera could do.
The NEXT STEP is to get a 60fps 1080p camera out there and do it again. And also simultaneously set up a high res slow mo camera pointed in the same direction on the off chance you can fire it for a couple seconds and get some 500-1000fps video of it.
Not hard, someone just needs to get out there with HD equipment with a high FPS to actually capture the movement.
The videographer and the local Fox affiliate need to prove this is not an RC drone. How hard is it to go to Clay and 56th Ave and set up a camera.
