Zdany, Poland Jan-2006 UFO Photo

The Zdany, Poland 8-Jan-2006 UFO Photos, an example of walnut-shaped UFO i.e. "flattened sphere with ring at the equator".

Reportedly the object immobilized two cars, and was moving extremely swiftly and without noise. A series of photographs taken, read more in Zdany UFO photos and story. Some of the best recent UFO photos.

Todo: Add the "Phoenix, AZ - UFO orb gliding through mountain range" timestamped as 28-Feb-2006 7:43AM video footage by anonymous.

Related: This object very much resembles in shape -but obviously not in size- the UFO encountered by Japan Airlines flight JAL1628 on 17-Nov-1986. See pilot's drawing (taken from his official report), computer rendering of encounter, Maccabee analysis (big doc!) (ufologie). Also the object seen at Lincolnton, NC on 1-May-1985 at 21:30 (src: MUFON Journal Mar-86, p5).

The Japanese pilot lost his flying status for reporting the incident to the public, but 15 years later the story was corroborated by Callahan, former FAA Head of Investigations in DC. FAA administrator Donald Engen briefed members of President Reagan's Scientific Study Team, the FBI and the CIA in Washington, D.C. We know the details today because John Callahan, Division Chief of the Accidents and Investigations Branch of the FAA, attended the secret meeting and saved all audio and video evidence of the event (src: Callahan testimony at Disclosure Project's Press Conference in 2001)

Glossary: CE3 = close encounter of the 3rd kind, i.e. UFO-occupant sightings

UFO sites focused on documenting UFO history (historical cases, rather than try to track news-as-it-happens, for that go to second group):

www.ufoevidence.org, offers great amount of information neatly organised and in an easy to navigate form. Covers many aspects of the UFO phenomenon, featuring a database of ~400 UFO photos (note: some of unknown provenance or unverified, some BLURFOs likely birds/insects etc) and sightings, CE3 cases, catalogue of UFO landings.
Hundreds of case files e.g. recent 8-Jan-2006 in Zdany, Poland (with car-engine stalling) or classic ones Rex Heflin, California USA on 3-Aug-1965 and PanAmerican DC-4 14-Jul-1952, essays UFOs - A Challenge to Mainstream Science etc.
ufologie.net world's biggest UFO portal, in English and French language by French researcher Patrick Gross. Offers over 10.000 pages and 4.000 images with in-depth analysis, but it is not so easy to navigate and find info. A good starting point is the Ufologie.net Casebook a chronologically sorted list of cases thoroughly documented in that site. Its unique focus is URECAT, an elaborate UFO-occupant encounter a/k/a CE3 catalogue e.g. Filiberto Caponi CE3 (Italy, 1993), Varginha, Brazil Apr-1997, as well as classic sightings e.g. RB-47 4-way confirmation 17-Jul-1957.
Among its content are essays e.g. scientists taking position: Dr J. Allen Hynek, Prof. McDonald and astronauts like Gordon Cooper.
NICAP (National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena) was the premier civilian UFO organizations of the 1950s and 1960s in the USA (along with APRO). However, by late 1969 NICAP was destroyed as an effective UFO research organization. In late 1970s NICAP's extensive library, the most important of which was the comprehensive UFO sighting case investigative files, was transferred to CUFOS. Since the 1990s through the efforts of Francis Ridge and others, the nicap.org site was created to host much of NICAP's material: case-files, online UFO books (full text), as well as papers such as UFO interference with vehicles, UFO sightings at ICBM sites and nuclear Weapons Storage Areas etc
PROJECT 1947 is a world-wide effort to document the origins of the modern UFO phenomenon. Research for the project has yielded many early-era UFO reports via the FOIA, newspaper articles and contemporary accounts.
cufon.org Computer UFO Network in USA. Read the Malmstrom AFB/nuclear ICBM UFO Incident, Robertson Panel 1953 (commissioned by CIA to study UFOs), and the very intriguing Pentacle letter
UFO*BC focusing on the Canadian British Columbia UFO cases. Includes elaborate case-files.
orbwatch.com since 1997, monitoring and documenting the anomalous phenomena in the area of the western end of Lake Ontario, Southern Ontario, Canada.
UFOs NorthWest plethora of case-files.
UFO Wisconsin interesting case-files.
CohenUFO.org (note: perhaps lacking in web-design, but don't judge a book by its cover) select cases and moments from UFO history, diligently reported by musician Jerry Cohen, who became fascinated with the UFOs ever since he saw one hover near his home in 1967
www.roswellproof.com (mirror) by Dr. David Rudiak, is focused on the Roswell case, but includes information on many other important UFO cases
ufodna.com a new (2007) but extensive site. In addition to a large database of UFO cases, it explores the four popular explanations of UFO sightings (misinterpretations/delusions, extraterrestrial vehicles, paranormal manifestations and Nazi secret tech)
Fundacion Anomalia (primarily in Spanish language, but some articles available in English), a not-for-profit organization created in 1997 by a number of experienced Spanish UFO researchers. With a skeptical lean.
MagoniaX [Flash-based site] - archiving centuries of Forteana Phenomena
uapreporting.org Unidentified Aerospace Phenomena (UAP) 2009 Observations Reporting Scheme is a project aiming at facilitating the collection of UAP reports from both amateur and professional astronomers

Sites tracking current UFO events as well as case histories (note: have also a look at the UFO blogs and podcasts):

UFOINFO.com coverage of a wide range of UFO topics. Hosts Filer's files, Humanoid Sighting Reports, UFO News UK, Oz Files and more
www.ufocasebook.com portal with daily updates and extensive photo gallery BUT unfortunately due to re-scaling several of its UFO photos are of poor quality vs the originals. Classic cases like Minot Air Force Base, seen by B-52 crew (1968), CE3s like Isla de Lobos, Uruguay 1972 and Mexico-Chihuahua disk crash and recovery. Has active forums.
brianvike.com, canadaufo.blogspot.com, HBCCufo.org - several sites (portals and blogs). Between 2000-2009 Webmaster Brian Vike diligently recorded the UFO reports he received and maintained special sub-sites for reports by military, policemen etc. While focusing on the Canadian cases, there are cases from other countries as well.
[another black hole for UFO reports?] Note 20-Dec-2009: In 2009 Brian Vike retired from the UFO field and in Nov-2009 he sold his sites to Robert T. Bigelow's BAASS. The sites still welcome UFO reports by the public, yet the 1000s of previously recorded UFO reports seem to have been taken down.
