Triangular UFOs are considered to be the most studied forms of UFOs. This conclusion was reached by the World UFO Network (MUFON), having studied eyewitness reports for the last six months - from August 1, 2015 to January 31, 2016. According to this data, 450 triangular UFOs have been seen around the world. If we consider only those cases that are confirmed by eyewitnesses, then this number decreases to 99. And 84 of these cases occurred in the United States. Now, if we consider these 84 cases, then in each of the 32 states, from 1 to 8 UFO sightings were recorded. Texas has 8 cases, Missouri, California and Ohio 7 cases each, Pennsylvania 6 cases. But there is one exception to the list - there were 5 cases in Iowa.
The population of Texas is 26.9 million, and the state of Iowa is just over 3 million. Statistically, it is very significant that during this time period there were 5 cases in Iowa and only 8 in Texas. Below is an overview of these five cases.
An eyewitness from Marengo reported seeing a UFO hovering over a cornfield about 20 meters long. He and a friend drove to Marengo around 10:20 p.m. on June 4, 2015. They were heading north when they first saw a "very bright glowing stationary" blue-white light in the western sky. They thought it might be an airplane or a tower - but soon drove closer to the object.
“We drove up to Route 62 and turned left (west) towards Marengo and the object,” an eyewitness said. The speed of their car dropped to 70 km / h, they did not take their eyes off the UFO. “When we approached the object, it remained motionless and hung in the air 20 meters above the ground. It was triangular in shape, solid black, with crisscrossing "neon stripes along the bottom of the entire ship, mostly white and bright blue." Eyewitnesses were shocked. Then they turned right off the highway and headed for the city.
“We kept him in sight all the time. Then we turned around and decided to return, but he suddenly began to slowly move east. He looked huge. " They turned back into Marengo and turned right, east, hoping to see him again. "He hovered six kilometers from the intersection, exactly where we turned west onto Route 6. He covered six kilometers in two seconds."
Marengo is a city in Iowa, Iowa with a population of 2.5 thousand people.
An eyewitness from the city of Altuna reported two objects that moved 60 degrees from the horizon one after the other within one minute. The incident took place around 9 pm on August 21, 2015. An eyewitness stood on the balcony of the second floor, looked to the northeast and watched the moving plane.
“Then he noticed a red fog below the flying plane, which looked like a full moon and was moving at great speed from southeast to northwest. At first it appeared as a red spot, and when it turned 60 degrees, it looked like a translucent triangle with red lights. All this happened for about three seconds. Then an eyewitness entered the house, when a couple of minutes later returned to the balcony, he saw a second object moving along exactly the same trajectory,”said Assistant Director of State Beverly Trout.

An eyewitness from Sioux City reported driving directly under a triangular UFO. He was heading south along Route 75 at 8 p.m. on September 17, 2015, when he noticed five lights in the sky in front of the Gordon Drive Bridge. “I thought it was a helicopter,” an eyewitness said. But then he realized that the object looks much larger than the plane in the sky. “I drove under it and saw five lights in a straight line. It was in the shape of a triangle. When I pulled out from under the bridge, I double-checked what I saw. It was much more than an airplane. When I turned east, he disappeared."
Sioux City is a city in Plymouth County with a population of over 80,000.
Eyewitnesses from Britt observed 14 triangular UFOs hovering over the field on the autumnal equinox on September 27, 2015 at 9:30 pm. An eyewitness with a group of friends watched the moonrise on the northwestern outskirts of the city. “I noticed several flashes of light in front of the moon, reminiscent of camera flashes and at the same time moving,” said the witness. “A few seconds later, a UFO appeared from the east. He was heading straight towards us and moving 100 meters above the tree tops. It didn’t look like an airplane and moved completely silently. As he approached us, we could see that he was triangular in shape with white lights around the edges and red and green flashing lights. Then the group saw another UFO.
“At the time when the first UFO was rapidly approaching us, a second triangle of the same kind appeared out of nowhere, south of the first object, and was moving at high speed towards the first object. We thought the second UFO was about to collide with the first, but it flew over the first UFO a few centimeters away. The first object passed directly over our heads, and seven of us will confirm that it was triangular in shape. Then he stopped in the northwest over the city and hung there for several hours.
“Then a third triangular UFO appeared. He approached the first object from the east and remained hovering next to it. Then the first UFO began to move westward and eventually disappeared. The second object, which hovered over the northeastern part of the city, was joined by the fourth triangle. We counted 14 triangular UFOs for the entire evening around Britt between 9:30 pm and 2 am. An eyewitness noted that only dim stars appeared in the photographs, the UFO did not appear.
Britt is a city in Hancock County, Iowa with a population of just over 2,000.
An eyewitness from Cedar Falls observed a semi-transparent triangular UFO. The event took place at about 9 pm on November 19, 2015, on a clear, cloudless day. “I went out to smoke and noticed movement in the starry sky to my right,” said an eyewitness. - The object was in the form of a wedge or triangle. It was difficult to distinguish, against the dark background of the sky, it was slightly lighter, transparent with fuzzy edges. It is very difficult to understand without looking directly at him. He moved south-southeast, and there was no light or sound."
The man observed the object for 5-6 seconds before it disappeared. “He moved at a speed of more than 300 km / h at an altitude of about one kilometer. I cannot say about its size. When I first saw him, it seemed that he was at arm's length. The object did not reflect the moon and was kind of disguised in the background."
An eyewitness claimed that he did not have time to photograph him with a mobile phone. “I consider myself an amateur astronomer. It was very dark and I doubt the photograph could have turned out anything. This UFO flew noiselessly over the main street of the city of 40 thousand people. There is further evidence that on the same evening, twenty minutes earlier, the same object was seen in the town of Ames, 100 km from Cedar Falls. This message confirms my report,”said an eyewitness.
These cases were investigated by MUFON investigator David Crater and Assistant Director of State Beverly Trout.
