UFO Sightings Map:
USA Southeast States
The oldest UFO sightings (mid 1800s - 1959) show in blue here.
In 1878 a railroad crew in Kansas presumed a train was coming
when they saw light and steam in the distance. The 'train' left the
tracks and ran into the woods.
Violet marks (1960-1979) show in Florida and Georgia especially, with one cluster around Lumberton, North Carolina.
Events from 1980 onward (in green) group in parts of Florida, Alabama, and western North Carolina.
Note a seeming curved alignment of sightings going Northeast from southern Georgia into North Carolina. This is parallel to the coast, but about 100 miles inland.
