"My wife and I noticed what we thought was a star. It then started moving up and down, side to side and at 90 degree angles," reads a September report marked as coming from Hastings, Minn. "I have never seen anything like this before."
"I was driving to work early in the morning and noticed double-layered lights surrounding a massive circular object in the sky around 494 and Minnetonka Blvd," reads another from Minnetonka in August.
"Just got home from buying a dirt bike for my kids and took it for a drive in the dark to the end of the driveway," described another from Mora in June, "I saw a fireball looking circle moving around slightly about a half mile away, about 60 ft up, it just suddenly disappeared."
Nearly a hundred times each year, Minnesotans file reports of suspected UFO encounters with a volunteer organization known as the National UFO Reporting Center, which makes them available to be searched online . Extraterrestrial encounters have been creeping back into the zeitgeist this year, with the U.S. Navy acknowledging the existence of mysterious flying objects in September!

Soon after, thousands of revelers descended on Area 51 as part of a viral stunt that began on Facebook.

UFO debate in NC after odd lights spotted off Outer Banks | Charlotte Observer
A fleet of lights recorded off North Carolina’s Outer Banks has ignited a debate about whether they are honest-to-goodness UFOs or just part of a mysterious military exercise.
William Guy posted a 31-second video Sept. 28 on YouTube, showing what appears to be 14 glowing orbs over the water! 0:42 24 March, 2008: (Updated 2019) Real Flying Triangle UFO Ovni Over Shirley, Southampton, UK YouTube!! He refers to it as a “ real UFO sighting .”
“Anybody tell me what that is?” Guy says in the video. “We’re in the middle of the ocean, on a ferry, nothing around!

Guy told the McClatchy news group he’s from Indiana and is among the workers sent to repair damage on Ocracoke Island caused by intense flooding during Hurricane Dorian.
The video was filmed aboard a ferry crossing the Pamlico Sound from Ocracoke Island to Swan Quarter on the mainland, he said. The lights appeared for at least a minute and a half , he posted on YouTube.
The Area 51 'raid': What happened when alien enthusiasts tried to turn an online joke
Just then, another pair of lights appeared: headlights from an approaching car. Karen was momentarily distracted! UFO Videos | Navy Says UFO Videos Are Real | Are UFOs Real? www.popularmechanics.com ...real The U.S. Navy says three leaked videos showing reported encounters between Navy aircraft and UFOs are real. And they were never meant to be released.!! When she looked up again, the object was gone. Her friend told her it had disappeared straight up into the sky.
Karen remembers not being scared. As they drove away, she kept looking out the back window, hoping the thing would reappear. She wanted to see it again.
The visitors had come to test boundaries. More than 2 million people had RSVP'd to the event, titled "Storm Area 51, they can't stop all of us." The meme spread from Facebook to Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, Discord and Twitter, morphing along the way. People joked about how they intended to "see them aliens." The town of Rachel, Nev., which is near-ish to Area 51 but about 45 miles from the nearest gas station, braced for visitors.

She was here to test another boundary, between the present and the past. It had been 35 years since her encounter on that country road, and she was ready to reconnect with what she saw and felt as an awestruck teenager. She belonged to Facebook groups for people who believed they'd seen UFOs, which is how she learned about the Area 51 "raid." It happened to coincide with her 53rd birthday, so she had persuaded her best friend, Margaret LeMay, who goes by Marge, to fly to Las Vegas and then rent a minivan and drive to the desert.
I 'stormed' Area 51 and it was even weirder than I imagined | US news | The Guardian
In the middle of the Nevadan desert, outside a secretive US military airstrip, I found the world's strangest social media convention.
Joining them was a ragged army of hundreds of stoners, UFO buffs, punk bands, rubberneckers, European tourists, people with way too much time on their hands, and meme-lords in Pepe the Frog costumes – all here because of the Internet, the ironic and the earnest alike, for a party at the end of the earth.
* * *
Things snowballed. Within hours, the page had thousands of RSVPs. Within days it had more than a million. The air force warned that things would end badly for anyone attempting a raid. The FBI paid the hapless Matty Roberts a house call.
So he came up with a brilliant pivot: why not channel this momentum into a Burning Man-style music festival in the desert? He joined forces with Connie West, the operator of Rachel's sole inn and restaurant, to plan what they called Alienstock.
Not to change the topic here:
Area 51 raid: Local residents feared the worst when hundreds arrived to 'see them aliens' then
The event creator later said the whole thing had been a joke, but online masses committed to launch anyway.
"People in Rachel moved out here to be away from all the crap," Mr Day, 61, said Friday morning. "We don't know what to expect."
At 3am Friday, about 150 people made the 9-mile drive up a dusty road and surged towards the back gate, but mostly just laughed and pantomimed an invasion.
Police officers stationed just outside the back gates laid down the ground rules — do not cross that line, watch out for rattlesnakes — and politely deflected selfie requests from hundreds of people who drove up throughout the day.
When a green alien asked if he could get a photo of one of the officers pretending to handcuff him, the officer offered these terms: "Once the handcuffs go on, they don't come off." The alien demurred.
UFOs Are Real, But Don't Assume They're Alien Spaceships | Space
UFOs are very real, as we have recently seen — but that doesn't mean E.T. has been violating our airspace.
"UFO" refers to any flying object an observer cannot readily identify. And pilots with the U.S. Navy saw fast-moving UFOs repeatedly off the East Coast throughout 2014 and 2015, in one case apparently nearly colliding with one of the mysterious objects, The New York Times reported earlier this week.
Those incidents were reported to the Pentagon's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), whose existence the Times and Politico revealed in December 2017. (Interestingly, those 2017 stories cited Pentagon officials as saying that AATIP had been shut down in 2012.)
The Navy pilots said some UFOs reached hypersonic speeds without any detectable exhaust plumes, suggesting the possible involvement of super-advanced propulsion technology. Still, Defense Department officials aren't invoking intelligent aliens as an explanation, according to this week's Times story — and they're right to be measured in this respect, scientists say.
