7. Hudson Valley, New York Sightings, 1981
What made the Hudson Valley sightings remarkable was the sheer number of people who came forward claiming that they had seen UFOs during that time. Instead of the more typical “flying saucer” sightings, the Hudson Valley sightings showcased a relative newcomer to the UFO scene at the time: The triangle-shaped UFO. Reports indicated that these craft operated while making no sound whatsoever. Some of the flying triangles were reportedly so large that they were compared to a “floating city,” and one incident, even prompted dozens of motorists to pull to the side of the road to gaze in astonishment at the massive craft.
