Compilation: Some of the best UFO Cases (or the Classics)

Below, I wanted to list some threads pertaining to some of the best-known cases, both my work and that of others, lest they get lost through the pages. If anyone knows of any such threads of their own or others, that they think should be included, please let me know. My goal is that this thread can serve as a starting point for those just getting into the subject, as well as for those of us old hats at it. I’ll start with some of mine, but certainly am open to other recommendations. As such links are provided, I’ll add them to the cases below. Feel free to reply with suggestions, and we’ll review to see if applicable (adding them to this initial post for easy reference). Thanks!

Roswell: Truly the “Holy Grail” of UFOlogy. The government admits to capturing a flying saucer, then retracts the story. Warning to the reader: the links will take you to LONG threads on this.

Rendlesham: Also known as the “British Roswell”. Another famous case with military witnesses.

The Mantell Case: A pilot crashes while chasing a UFO, later identified as likely a Skyhook balloon.

The Phoenix Lights: In two separate events, numerous witnesses and videos capture mysterious lights over Phoenix, AZ. Was it flares, or something else?

Note: I’m still in the process of utilizing the search function for these, and other cases, to add more links to threads by other members. Please U2U or simply reply here with links you believe to have sufficient case info, etc. Thanks!

All great example! I'm gonna toss in one of my personal favorites, the Mexican Air Force UFO sightings.

Mexican Airforce to release UFO footage
Mexican Air Force UFO- Quick Resource Thread

I think people must not forget what happened (and happens) in Mexico. One of the the most signifiant UFO wave ever :

The Unbelievable Mexico Wave (1991-1993)

Excellent additions. By all means keep the links (only links) coming.

Don't forget Kecksburg, this is as significant in American UFO history as Roswell was.

Kecksburg, PA

Varginha, the Brazilian Roswell

The unbelievable story of a UFO crash in the city of Varginha, Brazil, in january 1996, and the capture of extraterrestrials by the military.
Please have a thought for the human and alien lives who were lost during this event.

The 1990 Belgium black triangle incident. Two Belgian F-16s were sent to intercept the object. Both spotted the target on radar but had trouble making a good lock on. The UFO was sighted on the ground visually as well as by radar.

The Belgian government does not deny the incident and released a full report (we need more governments like this!)

The Belgian government also released a 20 minute video of the F-16's radar screens but I haven't found the full vid on the internet, just this short little clip

The Colares case maybe.Brazilia,investigated by their army also.

Excellent example with very strong evidence.

This seems to me like a very overlooked case, but one with "great" physical evidence.

Finally got my writeup of Varginha done...

I wanted to add a lot more to it, but have been pressed for time lately...

Hey Gaz...

I don't know if this ones been posted

The 'Worm' footage from the STS-48 Space shuttle mission

I think it's an amazing bit of footage...it seemed to have disappeared from the net since this time last year..??

I found this link tho'... STS-48 'Worm' UFO footage

Worth a look if you haven't seen it...

Peace to all

That is indeed one weird video, though I think orbitting debris may be a more likely explanation... Sure is strange looking though....

whew. good work gazrok. again.

that was an ATS dryspell for a week or so. Nothing really grabbed my attention. Glad to see some excellent direction from an older ATSer. Great idea too. just wanted to say ditto to the mexican airforce last year. If you havent seen the ifrared footage, dont be fooled, that is NOT BALL LIGHTNING. last year!

edit: dont forget all the nasa footage. theres too much.

[edit on 17-8-2005 by lost]

Nope, not ball lightning, but sadly, the best case so far for this, seems to point to them being oil platform fires. The skeptics' evidence fits the events extremely well, and makes a strong case for the oil fire explanation. If you haven't seen it for yourself, check into it, I believe there was a good post on it here on ATS before, can't remember by who though.

If it's not already here, a great compilation of the Mexican Air Force UFO threads..

Also, the Prophet Yahweh phenomenon here...

It’s probably just our government illegally dumping radioactive slag, but the weirdness at Maury Island makes for a good read…

The FBI was quite interested in it for a while and generated a small mountain of memos on the subject, however I have not been able to find any “official” conclusion to the case.
