There is a misconception in the field of ufology no astronomers have seen UFOs. But the truth is exactly the opposite. In fact, there is a long list of high-profile astronomers who have had incredible UFO sightings. In 1952, Blue Book astronomy expert, J. Allen Hynek held a conference with astronomers. “Over forty astronomers were interviewed,” he said, “of which five had made sightings of one sort or another. This is a higher percentage than among the populace at large.” Researcher Alejandro Rojas, writes “Often people will ask me, ‘If there are so many UFOs, why aren’t astronomers seeing them?’ They are! In fact, astronomers have been some of the most influential advocates for the serious study of UFOs.” This video presents more than a dozen cases of astronomers who have seen UFOs.
In March of 1676, Edmund Halley (the discover of Halley’s comet) observed a “vast body apparently bigger than the moon,” which he estimates was 40 miles high, moving in excess of 9000 mph. He had other sightings of unexplained lights in the sky and on the moon, and on March 6, 1716, saw a strange UFO which remained in the sky for 2 full hours.
In 1783, Sir William Herschel (discover of Uranus and several moons) observed several unexplained lights on the moon. And again on October 2, 1790, he saw more unexplained lights. On several occasions he reported seeing UFOs in the sky which he described variously as, “round…oval…and disc-shaped.”
On April 12, 1879, astronomer Henry Harrison observed a strange object in the skies over New York City which remained in view for three hours. Unknown to him, another astronomer Spencer J. Devoe saw the same object. Researcher Morris K Jessup triangulated the two observations and calculated that the object was a half-mile wide.
On July 10, 1947, leading astronomer Lincoln Lapaz was driving through New Mexico when he and his family saw an elliptical-shaped object high in the clouds. He estimated that the object was 160 feet long, 65 feet wide. It was silent and appeared “self-luminous” against the dark clouds.
On August 20, 1949, Clyde Tombaugh (discoverer of Pluto) was with his family in New Mexico when they all saw a “curious bright object” move across the sky and darting off. Says Tombaugh, “This remarkably sudden ascent thoroughly convinced me that we were dealing with an absolute novel airborne device.”
On February 16, 1950, Dr Charles Shane of the Lick Observatory in Santa Clara, CA saw a “queer object” which he said was “moving unusually swiftly.” He said, “I call this celestial phenomenon one of the most unusual objects sighted in the sky for a long time.”
On May 20, 1950, Seymour Hess was at Lowell Observatory in Arizona when he saw a glowing and “extremely prominent” object move at 200 miles per hour across the sky and into a cloudbank, against the wind. He estimates the object was about five feet wide.
On August 3, 1951, Walter Webb of Hayden Planetarium in Boston, Massachusetts saw a glowing object move across the sky in a weird wave-like pattern. Says Webb, “No known object I could think of followed a path like that…my UFO appeared to be a bright, glowing object moving in a regular, wavy pattern.”
On January 25, 1954, astronomer Robert D Schaldach described his observation of a “yellow-white” pulsating light move across the sky at White Sands, New Mexico. Another military officer observed the object. They reported it to Project Blue Book saying that the object “was not any kind of meteor.” Blue Book did no investigation, but called the object “astronomical…meteor.”
On June 11, 1954, Percy Wilkins was flying over the east coast of the US when he saw two object that “looked exactly like polished metal plates reflecting in the sunlight.” He concluded that the objects were likely ‘built, piloted, and controlled by intelligences that surpass that of humans.”
On November 1, 1955, Frank Halstead of Darling Observatory in Duluth, Minnesota was on a train with his wife in Death Valley, California when they observed two UFOs. Says Halstead, “both objects were very shiny, we noticed. But this second one was definitely disc-shaped… The time is long overdue for accepting the presence of these things.”
Jacques Vallee needs no introduction and is a towering figure in the UFO field. In 1961, he was at the Paris Observatory in France and tracked an unexplained object. Says Vallee, “I thought, here we are at a renowned institution seeing something we can’t explain, and destroying data for fear of ridicule.”
As can be seen astronomers all across the world have been seeing UFOs for a very long time. Even Harvard astronomer Avi Loeb says, “UFOs should be the subject of mainstream inquiry. Science must bring clarity.” The time for skepticism is over. The evidence for UFOs is conclusive. We are not alone!
