Report a UFO to API

API Case Files is the official podcast of Aerial Phenomena Investigations.

In this episode, Marsha Barnhart examines closely an Identified case in Colorado, and a Brooklyn case closed as Unidentified. Paul Carr covers his recently closed-as-Unidentified case in Manhattan, and Prof. Antonio Paris briefly outlines his most recent case still under investigation in Texas.

Antonio, Paul and Marsha discuss the attributes of what they’re looking for in prospective investigators to join the API Team; that discussion began with the scientific and academic communities extreme reticence to engage in UAP and anomalous phenomena research.

Paul Carr presents the 8th installment in the series Unidentified Science, this time on Scientific Skywatching.

Location of UFO: Warren,Ohio Trumbul County

Shape of Object: Cigar

UFO Report: I was watching a passenger jet flying from the NE going SW. Then I saw the front of what appeared to another jet flying on a intercept course, at the time I could only make out the front of the craft. Thought they were going to collide. I blinked because I didn’t want to see the planes collide. When I looked again the is was not a plane, a very long cigar shape ufo. The passenger jet did not change his flight path at any time while I was watching. The ufo did not have any wings , no sound, no vapor trail. I could see wingtip to wingtip of the jet, the ufo is 3times bigger then the jet.By now I can see the hole thing. Metallic in appearance, as it flew off to the NW. I reported to MUFON on 5/23/2012 Day after report to MUFON. I watched a Lear Jet fly from the south very low in sky very loud whining noise to these jets. Flew over house and turned to the NW same flight path as the ufo, within the hour 4 black attack helicopters flying from the west, turned NW same flight path as ufo. I could see no marking on helicopters and they were flying very low. Later that evening after dark. I watched another large military black jet coming from the south, he went afterburners over my house. very loud wings were sweeping back could see the flames coming out of the 2 jet engines of the jet. Flew the same flight path as the ufo. To this day I cannot find the military jet that I saw. Squared back 2 jet engines. Unknown if it is a fighter or interceptor.

UFO Report: I know you believe in aliens.. If I will tell that to someone of my family or friends they will probably think that im crazy… I’m from Poland but I came to live in Scotland with my parents (they are here 10 years) I also have 2 kids. But first summer in Scotland was different then others.. It was in 2011, and that night we were drinking with my parents and their friends… I was drunk but not bad drunk I was just happy drunk 😉 but when I went to bed with my kids…. Something weird happened… I wake up in the middle of the night and I saw alien on bed next to me… It is crazy… Maybe I drink too much… But it was so real… I cannot forget that night… He was in place that my daughter was sleeping, and he was blue and really nice …. First I was afraid but he told me … We were talking without open my mouth, like in my mind… So he told me that my daughter will be fine I dont need to worry, and I can fall asleep again. It was so weird and i was feel like i can trust him… It sounds crazy!!! But i must tell someone about it!!! I fall asleep after his words and when i wake up in the morning my daughter was next to me. But i just can’t forget about it… It was just sooooo real… And i still remember that light blue skin… Big dark eyes… And really long skinny arms and fingers… It was so real, but im not sure.. Maybe it was just a dream… I dont want you to contact with me, or something, im just happy that i could tell that to someone.

Time of Sighting: 12:46am

Duration of Event: 2 minutes

Location of UFO: Holts Summit Missouri 65043

Shape of Object: Other (Explain Below)

UFO Report: Antonio & Team hello; Okay, here is your report, This may be same object I said via Twitter, which I have  seen several times, in Nov-Dec 2010-13, as often, it was at great height, at night hard to estimate but perhaps 5000 ft, travelling west to east dead on, several times as loud as jets at same altitude (actually this is how I know they are coming), this occasion the craft appeared disk like in front with concave back end (in past sightings was grey metallic silver lead color disk and up close in past sighting have seen a ring or row of rectangular windows with figures inside), with red lights on either side (also has a flashing white light below, though this time I did not recall seeing this), this time however it came over ejecting small lights like stars to me (my vision not great require glasses to drive as I cannot read road signs clearly, until right on top of) but, in pictures, which I snapped with my powershot 2500 camera (16mp) they appear as boomerang shape, tiny craft I believe, dropping these about every mile as it crossed the sky above me.  It went behind my roofline out of sight at 12:48am (noted time when came back inside).  Please note, I have seen this craft, MANY times over the years since it landed, I believe, from the sound when it took off, on my apartment roof in 2010.  Regarding the pictures, I have 4 good ones of the items dropped, for some reason ‘mother craft’ was not visible in the shots of it, and the video I attempted to take of it ( thus my reason for switching over to taking single shots).  I believe, it will be back on either New Years eve, or the few days following, as it has been every year at that time (though it never arrived so early before, so perhaps this will be the only visit??).   As I have said, I have seen this UFO many times, I think my number of visits, indicates they have so s interest in this area, perhaps in me personally…  Oh and would attach pics but, have no clue how to get those from camera to my ipad, new ar this.
