NUFORC Sightings Report: 02/2020

This document is a comprehensive compilation of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) sighting reports submitted to the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) during the month of February 2020. The reports span a wide geographic area, primarily within the United States, but also including sightings from Canada, the United Kingdom, France, the Philippines, Costa Rica, Mexico, South Africa, and Australia. The sightings are presented in reverse chronological order, beginning with reports from February 29, 2020, and concluding with reports from February 1, 2020. The descriptions provided by witnesses are diverse, ranging from simple 'lights' and 'spheres' to more complex shapes such as triangles, cigars, disks, and boomerangs. Many reports describe objects moving in formation, often in straight lines, which frequently led witnesses to speculate about the involvement of 'Starlink' or 'Spacelink' satellites. Other reports detail erratic movements, sudden disappearances, and hovering behavior. Several entries mention the use of MADAR (Multiple Anomaly Detection and Assessment Response) nodes, indicating a technical monitoring component to some of the data collection. Some reports include anecdotal details, such as witnesses feeling terrified, objects following vehicles, or objects appearing to interact with military aircraft. The document also includes occasional editorial notes from NUFORC, which suggest potential conventional explanations for certain sightings, such as the planet Venus or satellite constellations. The reports vary significantly in detail, with some providing specific times, locations, and descriptive narratives, while others are brief or mention that video or photographic evidence was captured. The compilation serves as a raw data repository for public-submitted accounts of aerial anomalies during this specific timeframe.
