Green Bay Wisconsin USA Jan-2007 photo by anonymous photographer, of what seems to be a disk with several colored lights on its underside: 12 of those lights evenly spaced at 30° apart forming an inner circle and 4 more at 90° apart - bigger photo [ufoevidence]
Story:
"An email contact of mine sent them. She asserts her Husband took them a few weeks ago (around the first week of January) in Wisconsin near Green Bay. I reserve judgement but I will say it is very similar with Weyauwega UFO" -- Jack Nethering
Water connection: Throughout this site, we keep pointing out the apparent connection between low-altitude sightings of UFOs and bodies of water (like the Great Lakes in these cases).
It was researcher Ivan T. Sanderson, who in his 1971 book Invisible Residents: The Reality of Underwater UFOs suggested that aliens could remain undetected by building their bases beneath the world's oceans.
Related #2: Sighting by long-time UFO investigator and author Raymond E. Fowler on 14-May-1980, near Mars Hill, Maine USA. In his MUFON report he describes "three (3) disks with many white lights on bottom. Hovered perfectly still in close formation, suddenly took off at incredible speed from a standstill. It was raining"
Civilian UFO organisations have always operated on a shoestring budget with all-volunteer resources, yet many of them managed to do remarkable work over the past 50yr.
UFO reporting, documentation and study
Mutual UFO Network - MUFON - The world's largest civilian UFO research organisation, MUFON describes its mission as "the systematic collection and analysis of UFO data, with the ultimate goal of learning the origin and nature of the UFO phenomenon." With news, weekly database reports (giving comparative tables of UFO reports), links to MUFON's regional sites, and a UFO Investigator's Manual. Also hosts the Bob Pratt archives. Note that MUFON is decentralised and I've found out that the regional MUFON Website are often more info-rich and usable than the main site.
Note: In early 2008, MUFON published in partnership with TBV the MUFON journals 1960s-2000 in .PDF format (the late 1990s editions are generally more interesting, but scanned and harder to read)
National UFO Reporting Center by Peter Davenport, operates a 24/7 phone hotline accepting UFO-sighting reports for USA (since no "official" US government agency accepts UFO reports after USAF's Blue Book closed down in 1969). NUFORC's case briefs

[spartan Website] CUFOS: Hynek, past Chairman of the Astronomy department at Northwestern University and scientific consultant of USAF Project Blue Book, thought the UFO phenomenon had been the subject of misconceptions, misinformation, and an unscientific approach. To help rectify the situation Hynek and a group of selected scientists established the Center for UFO Studies "for those who wish to see positive scientific action taken to end a quarter of a century of misrepresentation and buffoonery".
IUR, CUFOS' quarterly magazine, consistently publishes important and interesting articles and commentary. In addition, there's the Center's Journal of UFO Studies, ufology's only peer-reviewed journal, presenting the results of work by top people in the field.

Political activism, disclosure, exopolitics etc
Coalition for Freedom of Information (CFI) a lobbying effort which challenges UFO secrecy. In co-operation with film producer James Fox (of the "Out of the blue: The definite investigation of the UFO phenomenon" documentary), organised a highly acclaimed press conference on 12-Nov-2007 in National Press Club in Washington, DC. In that event, 14 witnesses from 7 countries discussed their personal encounters with UFOs and official investigations.
Paradigm Research Group a political activism organisation describes its mission as "dedicated to ending the government imposed truth embargo regarding an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race."
The Disclosure Project is pushing for full disclosure and open Congressional hearings on the UFO/ET presence, including testimony of military/government persons, witnesses to UFO events and projects, with release from security oaths. I find Dr Steven Greer's comments a bit strange, but many of the Disclosure Project's witness testimonies very compelling.
Note: Videos of both the 12-Nov-2007 and the May-2001 events are available to watch online in the testimonies page.
