A credible witness in central New Jersey reported a triangular formation of lights in the early morning of 29 February 2024. We were not able to find an explanation that fit her observation. You can read our Report of Investigation if you want to know more.
Unfortunately, there was no corroboration discovered in our investigation. If you were in New Jersey or Eastern Pennsylvania at the time and saw something similar, please get in touch.
We have a new Public information video out going over a few simple steps to capture a UFO on video should you happen to sight one.
Here at API we have lots of experience with people submitting video to us of something weird they saw in the sky. Most of the time, it turns out that it’s not so weird, but sometimes we are left puzzled, or at least a little perplexed. If you are watching this video, chances are you are hoping to someday capture video of an object you can’t identify – something that is moving in odd ways, or has a shape or color that makes little sense. This is about what to do when that moment arrives.
We’ll assume that what you are shooting this video with is your mobile phone, since that is the only camera most people routinely carry, but the basic advice should apply to any camera.
There really isn’t any question of whether to shoot or not shoot video – if you have a functioning camera, you shoot. You don’t have to worry that people will think less of you – API will protect you from all the stigma, and anything in the video that might identify you will be muted, blurred, or edited out.

Case 20-017 was a photographic case in May 2021 in Derby, UK. We couldn’t positively identify the object(s) photographed, nor could we show with certainty that they were moving with the wind, but little else anomalous was discovered. Read our Report of Investigation for the case.

We’ll be at the Mysteries of Space and Sky conference on the 21st of October in Gambrills, Maryland. It’s a one day, affordable conference, and not the same old speakers going over the same old cases.

This is our first anonymous API Conversation, although we are using the real first name of our Witness. A former Air Force F111 technician tells us his story about a UFO encounter captured on RADAR at Cannon Air Force base in New Mexico in the mid 1970s, and what followed after that.
We couldn’t positively identify the object captured on video in June of 2022 from a Phoenix, Arizona office building, but it was not highly anomalous.
Read our Report of Investigation for the case.
Case 22-022 was closed as Identified. Read our Report of Investigation to learn more.
