NUFORC Sightings Report: 09/2022

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 September 2022. The report spans 34 pages and catalogs hundreds of individual accounts from witnesses across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and other international locations. The entries are organized chronologically, beginning on September 30, 2022, and extending back to the beginning of the month. Each entry provides the date, time, location, and a brief description of the observed object or phenomenon, along with its reported shape. The shapes described are highly varied, including disks, orbs, circles, triangles, cigars, cylinders, spheres, diamonds, chevrons, and various lights or formations. Witness accounts frequently describe objects that exhibit unconventional flight characteristics, such as rapid acceleration, sudden stops, erratic movement, hovering, and silent operation. Many reports mention the presence of lights, with colors ranging from white and red to green, orange, and blue. Some witnesses describe objects that appear to change shape, phase in and out of view, or possess cloaking mechanisms. Several reports note the presence of multiple objects, sometimes in formation or moving in synchronization. The document also captures instances where witnesses attempted to document the phenomena using cameras, security systems, or thermal imaging, with some reports mentioning the subsequent review of this footage. While some entries are identified by the reporting center as likely being related to known phenomena, such as SpaceX satellite launches, many others remain categorized as unidentified. The reports reflect a wide range of observer experiences, from casual sightings in residential areas to observations made by pilots and individuals during specific events like hurricanes or power outages. The narrative provided by these reports suggests a persistent and widespread occurrence of aerial phenomena that defy conventional explanation for the observers involved.
