Breaking: UFOs over East Side of Cincinnati Tonight

Cincinnati, OH - Three witnesses and two separate reports of a vertically shaped UFO over the east side of Cincinnati tonight between 7:50 and 8pm. The first caller to the Cincinnati UFO Hotline (513-876-5UFO) described five "huge" orange, oval-shaped lights stacked-up vertically over the east side of Downtown Cincinnati visible from his Ft. Wright, KY neighborhood. The lights eventually faded out, and then a sixth single light became visible.

The second caller was driving with his girlfriend on OH St. Rt. 32 when she pointed out what appeared to be an "explosion in the sky" over the Batavia / Eastgate Mall area. A string of four lights came down from it, fading in and out. The objects became solid and started zig-zagging across the sky.

Additional unverified witnesses on the KY side of the river in Newport, east of the Levee, claimed to have saw 3 lights over Cincinnati around the same time. Did you witness this UFO event? Send us your report.

Update 9:35pm: Additional witnesses have contacted us regarding their own sightings across the area tonight. One possible explanation offered by e-mailer #3 was "parachutists over Nippert Stadium for the UC football game."

E-mail Report #1: "We saw the same UFO tonight in Northern Kentucky.  We were on 471 North by the Southgate/Fort Thomas exit and we saw four lights in the west part of the sky.  They were semi-circular on the bottom with a lid type appearance on top.  It looked as though there were four lights and then went off and came back on in random patterns.  They were distinctly clear with no diffusion of light.  We reported it to 700 WLW and Fox 19.  Both news sources stated they had received multiple calls and WLW informed us that they had called the police and made a report.  The police stated that they believed they were parachuters for the UC vs Uconn game tonight.  We don’t think so!  WLW radio sounded skeptical of this explanation as well and was anxiously awaiting video of the event or more detail."

E-mail Report #2: "My boyfriend and I saw them too.  We were just leaving Kenwood driving down 71 south and to my right, out the passenger side window, looking over the Ridge Ave/Madisonville area were 4 glowing lights in formation.  One faded in and out. The trees obscured my vision but as the 71 curved back they were visible through the windshield again, then there were only 3 lights.  Then as we got off the Red Bank Rd exit the trees obscured them again.  I called my mom immediately after they disappeared behind the trees the first time, my phone says I made that call at 7:51 pm.

"It was the strangest thing I've ever seen.  I don't believe in stuff like this but I saw it with my own eyes.  It was completely unexplainable. They weren't planes, they weren't objects WITH lights ATTACHED to them.  The whole thing glowed, a warm color too, like a yellowy gold color light, whatever they were. I tried to take a picture with my cellphone but it's so grainy you can't even make it out."

Weird Ways to Search for ET

It's a constant battle, as SETI scientists (and string theorists, for that matter) are often accused of falling down the wrong rabbit hole. "Why waste time looking for old-style radio signals," many people have written me, "when the aliens will be shooting neutrinos our way?" "The aliens will use entangled particles to signal us," many tell me. Luc Arnold, a French astronomer, has suggested that aliens might signal us with giant shadow puppets. Read More

The Search

One step closer to Star Trek's holograms

TOKYO - By using ultrasonic waves, the scientists have developed software that creates pressure when a user's hand "touches" a hologram that is projected.

In order to track a user's hand, the researchers use control sticks from Nintendo's popular Wii gaming system that are mounted above the hologram display area.

The technology has so far been tested with relatively simple objects, although the researchers have more practical plans, including virtual switches at hospitals, for example, and other places where contamination by touch is an issue.
