UFO sightings on the rise: Florida man describes orbs he caught on camera
Fox 35 Orlando ^ | /5/04/2021 | Elina Shirazi

Fuentes caught a strange video on his home security camera at 3 a.m. The startling video shows two circles of light soaring in the air, twinkling mysteriously in the night sky.

The national U.F.O. Reporting Center says there have been 245 new UFO reports through March 30. In 2020, there were 7,200 plus UFO sightings. That’s 1,000 more sightings than in 2019.

What was once a bedtime story turned into a bombshell. Over the past few years, we have seen a new level of acknowledgment from the government. Thousands of UFO documents from the CIA were recently obtained. The Department of Defense and the U.S. Navy also confirmed investigations and sightings.

The excitement and curiosity extend to the Space Coast. A Space Coast UFO group devotes their time investigating UFO footage about twice a month.

Sort of like Bigfoot. Either the photo / video capture is too far away, too blurry, or they just (supposedly) barely got the camera out in time and caught an “arm” of it. Even with people having HD camera and video camera readily available on hand, the “new” photos are just as bad as the ones from 50 years ago.

I don’t disagree with any of this. But we are talking about Florida Man here.

YEARS ago I read an article that placed two photos of "UFOs" side by side - saucer shaped and at slightly different angles. Both were "fuzzy".

One was taken by an everyday camera of the time (1970s), the other taken by a hi-res camera used for tracking missile launches. The theory was that the devices had a propulsion system that ionized the air around them, making them looked blurred.

I thought that was a reasonable deduction, so while still a bit sceptical, it will do for now.

I’d sure like to see an UFO.

But it doesn’t look likely.

There’s billions of photos/vids of everything on the planet and in space. Not one of a close-up UFO or alien.

They are shifting the Overton window to introduce a need for a world government by planting the seed for an us vs them mentality. This is because the previous nonsense about global warming failed to produce the desired result.

It is an attempted world wide bloodless coup.. they are even crowdsourcing the new world wide digital currency right in front of us rather than taking over the money supply by force like regular coups.

In the last 50 years Alaska has had 6500 reported sightings. Those are just the reported ones. Many times that go unreported for various reasons.

Mexico City has had daily sightings.

The rise in sightings does not come from seeing more but from the more reporting being done about the phenomenon that is making its way into everyday households.

This can be akin to police shootings. While there is not a rise in shootings per se of blacks, there is more reporting done on police shooting blacks.

The increase in reporting from news, lame stream or otherwise, gives the false sense that there is an increasing amount of activity where there was previously none. We have the 24 hour news cycle to attribute to this. If it is out of sight it is out of mind. However, if it is in front of our faces everyday where previously it had not, then people tend to believe there is an uptick in that particular activity. Hence the media narrative to keep the embers stoked and the fire burning.

This is coming to light more and more. The recent “tic tac” footage shot by military pilots, also show this “halo effect”. Researchers are actually going through footage and pictures because there is a belief that this effect can distinguish between real and fake sightings. However, this effect does not hold true for all cases, for example the Arizona Lights that occurred over Phoenix that thousands witnessed.

That you know of. There are images out there. You just have to look and determine for yourself if they are real or not.

I believe, there is an Israel photo out there of an alien craft with the occupants seen in the windows of the craft. But you want closeups, do a search on trail cameras and weird stuff captured by them. Yes there are fakes that continue to keep people like yourself skeptical. But there are also real ones amongst the fakes. Just like there is fake currency amongst the real ones. Not everything is fake and not everything is real.

Do you have a link on the sighting involving thousands


No I do not. It was shot by a guy near Fairbanks and I saw it on a TV show about the strange things which have happened in AK.

I’ve seen two, but both were in the days long before cell phones and were seen at a time when I had no camera available; both were very clear and I could see lots of detail.

Absence of proof is not proof of absence.

Its difficult to take a clear definitive image of an object which appears at a random moment, moves rapidly and unpredictability or blinks. There are shots that are clear, but everyone poo-poos them, ipspo facto, there are no good images.

Well there is an uptick - these happen and then it subsides until the next time. Keep in mind not many people look up and most live in cities (where the preponderance of cell phones are) that have so much light night time observations are all but precluded and have tall buildings which hide the sky in the daytime.

Many of us out here have seen them on many occasions, and it is always nice to see the MSN take an interest once in a while.

More reporting is being done because more ‘credible’ observers have been given permission to speak and report or are past the point of jeopardizing their jobs.

You should see what bugs and especially spiders look like on my security cameras.

If we are talking about the same "Phoenix Lights", that was proved to be a military exercise - the aircraft dropped flares which appeared in sequence and went out in sequence. If there are others, I haven't heard about them.

Those were no flares and that was debunked. Good try though.

The people speaking out today are no more credible than those that spoke yesteryear. What has changed is the reaction to those speaking out. For example, it was a career ender, and some say it still is, for any pilot to mention objects in the sky they come across that has unnatural characteristics. There are still those who believe in a God they have never seen but refuse to believe in or even accept that something strange or other off-world beings or that zoological creatures that there is clear evidence of. Funny how these same people believe that a God only created humans but no other beings.

That’s what I said - those people can now speak out along with new reporting requirements for naval aviators on UAP.

And yes far more credible people are speaking out then ever, had you been paying attention lately.
