A FAMILY has shared the baffling moment they were dazzled by a UFO hovering in the sky above them.

Norman was driving home with his family on September 27 when he spotted a beaming glow of light flashing overhead.

He described the sighting, made just east of Petersburg in Indiana, as being almost metallic in color.

Norman added that the red pulsing UFO started as one big light, but another followed shortly after.

“At first there was one large one, then the second one came out of nowhere and stayed a moment and entered the large one as seen in the video,” the witness told Coast to Coast AM.

“Then there was one, and it just vanished, it didn’t move, it just vanished.”

The family was on their way back from shopping in Evansville, Indiana, when they made the bizarre sighting.

It came just days before the Pentagon launched an online tool to report UFO sightings in a move for greater transparency in their investigations of UFOs.

Current or former federal employees or those “with direct knowledge of US government programs or activities related to UAP dating back to 1945” are eligible to use the form, according to a statement released by the Pentagon.

The form was made available on the website of the Department of Defense’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) and it will be accessible to the public soon, officials said.

Sean Kirkpatrick, the director of AARO said in a statement that secondhand information on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs) or encounters aren’t welcome.

“This reporting mechanism that is on the website is for people who think they have first-hand knowledge of clandestine programs that the government has been hiding,” Kirkpatrick said.

He continued: “[If a] pilot’s flying around, and he sees something in his airspace and he needs to report it, that goes through operational channels.”
