UFO Reported in New York State Described As “One Orb Changing to 4 Orbs”
While the debate rages on whether we are really alone in the Universe, many otherwise normal everyday people on Earth continue to report strange sightings. One of the more recent reports came from a driver on I-684, who said they saw a circular-shaped object buzz over them while on the highway back in December.
While no one is quite sure if these really are extraterrestrials, New York State remains one of the leading areas for unexplained sightings. According to the National UFO Reporting Center, there have been 5882 reports of UFOs in New York state.
That is fifth in the country, only behind California, Florida, Texas, and Washington state.
