Declassified Messages From The National UFO Reporting Center Contain Alarming Information

Founded in 1974, the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) has served to catalogue the strangest, most otherworldly experiences ever witnessed on Earth — no matter how farfetched they might seem. In accordance with this mission, NUFORC has compiled nearly 90,000 reports on everything from UFO sightings to extraterrestrial encounters, providing a detailed look into information and events that were never meant to get out. Though it might be easy to write off most alien stories as mere fiction, these declassified accounts of unexplained phenomena are sure to make you a believer.

1. Towering Ship

On a January morning in Lebanon, Illinois, police officer Ed Barton encountered a gigantic triangular object with a light on each corner hovering some 1,500 feet overhead. Other Illinois residents saw it too, recounting it was "perhaps three stories long" and resembled a house: "There were big windows, about two and a half feet wide and five or six feet high, two stories, one on top of each other."

Something's Fishy

The nearby Scott Air Force Base claimed its radar had been off at the time of the incident, though a "highly reliable source" later told NUFORC that the Air National Guard jets "may have been scrambled to take a look at the object." Some even revealed that government employees had visited local police departments and witnesses to ask them to "curtail all their statements to the press."

2. Headed For the Mountains

While standing on his front step, a Wenatchee, Washington, man watched as a silver, triangular craft slowly glided over the tops of a cluster of 150-foot-tall poplar trees. His fascination, however, turned to terror as the man realized the ship was on a crash course for nearby Burch Mountain.

Reputable Source

But instead of striking the mountain, the craft simply disappeared into thin air. NUFORC later confirmed this man's reliability as a witness: "We know this witness, and have spoken with him on several occasions. He formerly served in the U.S. military, and held a high security clearance."
