    1,200ft-wide UFO reported over Gulf of Mexico

    UFO Reported in Gulf of Mexico: OSV Engineer Says He Saw
    Large Craft Hovering Near Rig


    Dramatization


    A crew member of an offshore supply vessel in the Gulf of Mexico claims he saw a UFO ‘fives times’ the size of his vessel and UFO trackers are now looking for more witnesses to come forward with any information possibly related to the sighting.

    The UFO sighting reportedly occurred on Tuesday in the Gulf of Mexico approximately 80 miles southeast of New Orleans.

    The sighting was submitted to the National UFO Reporting Center, which apparently tracks UFO sightings and data, by the chief engineer of an OSV working the Gulf of Mexico on Thursday afternoon. According to the eyewitness report:


    “Close to 7:00 pm on March 21st, just before dusk, myself and 4 of the crew members aboard our vessel saw a craft that appeared to be five times our 240 ft vessel in length. My line of sight was about 1/4 mile from our vessel. There was a rig behind the craft about a 1/2 mile. i used this to help gauge size of craft. Sighting was approximately 80 miles SE of New Orleans, Louisiana.

    The scene lasted about 40 seconds. The craft rose up out of the water (Gulf of Mexico) about 40 feet, no water was dripping from the craft. Within a split second the craft disappeared at a 30 degree angle into the sky. Speed appeared to faster than speed of a light turning on in a room. Within seconds it had disappeared completely.

    I can say for sure that the craft was dark colored, oval in shape and made no sound whatsoever.

    With as many rigs (2), there has to be more witnesses than just the four on our vessel."


    The NUFORC has even highlighted the sighting as being of particular interest among the 246 reports of UFOs received in March alone. And after speaking with the witness by phone, the NUFORC said the report seems legit and has urged more witnesses to come forward.

    “We spoke via telephone with this witness, and he seemed to us to be unusually sober-minded,” NUFORC wrote in a note added to the original report. “We suspect that he is a very capable, and very reliable, witness. He estimates that upwards of perhaps 50 people, who were aboard nearby vessels, may have witnessed the event, as well. We would urge those other witnesses to submit reports of what they had witnessed.”

    Did anyone on the rig think to to take a photograph or film the event? Doesn't almost everyone on the planet have a mobile phone that can take photographs and film????

    Much Peace - Amanda

    A photo would be good - BUT -

    Often cameras/phones won't function when these things are around.

    Boja - And often they do. I have had video footage and photographs shared with me. I also have my own 'unexplained' photographs. I find it a plausible question to ask why there is not a shred of evidence - when we live in a global society that is connected via all manner of technology. Not to sound disrespectful to you and your comment - I just find it thought provoking that there is not a single photo or video - not even a blurry one taken in a hurried moment.

    Much Peace & Much Respect - Amanda

    It appears that the ability of electronic equipment to function will vary with the proximity to the object.

    It also seems that they (whoever they are) can select with their superior technology, how much we are permitted to record.

    There have been many times where I'm seeing something amazing and don't want to take my eyes off or go get my camera. Some sightings don't last long. Sometimes when I get back with my camera the moment is gone. When you're amazed it's hard to think practically. Same as when you're scared. Just some thoughts on the subject.

    In the report it says the scene only lasted 40 seconds. It sure would be nice if it had lasted longer, long enough for a camera to be thought of, activated and time for a picture! Oh well. Very nice that the witness is helping spread the word. Also more evidence.....at the very least testimony.....may be produced by others, since it seems multiple people saw this UFO. I appreciate the report, skywizard!

    I haven't been a poster (maybe once or twice) but I've been reading here on a semi-regular basis since the spring of 2015. Good job you guys that run this place, and all who share here, it is a very interesting place to read at! I tend to skim through the new posts page and glean that way. Just wanted to say hello and express some appreciation for The One Truth forum!

    Thanks for the greetings, Elen and Aragorn! I weathered the storm by keeping the hatches battened down, lips zipped, and staying close to my peaceful center. Aragorn, your 2 year anniversary summary was a cool super condensed reader's digest version! Much I remembered being very engrossed by (grins), much I'd rather forget, but still a lot of lessons learned along the way, did plenty of gleaning from the wisdom and experiences (good, bad and neutral) of others, which is a good way for me. It's like stepping stones. I've found some pretty awesome gems around here...nuggets of deep truth.....and really cool people.

    It's always worth checking out NUFORC.org - the NATIONAL UFO REPORTING CENTRE - run by Peter Davenport.

    He's continually receiving, vetting, and posting UFO reports mainly in USA & Canada.

    If a ship has rivets or not is a big clue. Chris Thomas writes about this.
