UFO sightings have reached an all-time high, according to statistician Sam Monfort.
Monfort collated sightings recorded by the National UFO Reporting Centre, a US organisation that records sightings worldwide, from the beginning of the 20th century.
And there's been a bit of an upward trend...
Interestingly though, Sam has observed that spotting of flying saucers have been on the downturn, despite the rise in sightings over all.
Maybe extraterrestrials have just upgraded?
In terms of geography, Sam says that the US seems to be the most prone to UFO sightings all year round.
The States actually report 300 times as many sightings than the the global average, according to his calculations.

Might have something to do with drones being at an all time high.

UFO Sightings are at an All-time High
FYI...in the article there are some additional hyperlinks to some really good data this guy has captured.
With UFO sightings at an all time high where have all the REALLY good UFO cases disappeared to? We need another Bob Lazar personality.
Part of me thinks because we now have SO MANY fake UFO videos people have become somewhat detached and disenchanted with the latest "best UFO video". They have become so common place they have lost their once awe inspiring appeal.
I know for myself whenever I see a new UFO video the first thing that comes to mind is if someone faked it. Not if it is real. There's a huge difference in those two streams of conscience and it bums me out.
For the record I am in fact a believer in extraterrestrial UFOs. I was very fortunate to have 3 legitimate UFO sightings. Each very unique unto themselves. I should probably post about it in UFOs and Aliens. Maybe this article should be there as well but I will leave that to the mods. It is a breaking story, however.

If sightings are at an all-time high, smart phones ownership is at an all time high, and more people have higher-quality cameras built into their phones,
WHY AREN'T THERE MORE VIDEOS of Daytime UFO's?

With more technology available from cell phones most always available on people one might expect more sightings. To counter that with computer software and other means to faking ufos, Sure there may be more fakes as well.
