UFOs are in today's news again. Step up DUers. If you have had a sighting, lets us all know. [View all]

Several years ago while at work my son and I saw a craft that's flight characteristics were not explainable by any human technology.

Sightings are very common. You don't have to wear a tin foil hat to have had one. I just put myself out there for ridicule. Join me and make your report right here so we can all see how common they are.
