The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) has been inundated with reports from people who filmed, photographed, or claimed to see UFOs while watching the once in a life time spectacle across the US.
Thousands of people aimed video and camera equipment at the skies yesterday as the eclipse made its way across the states from the west coast to the east.
Investigators at MUFON have been sent ten ssighting reports since yesterday.
They include one snap which appears to show three disc shaped objects sparing over hills at Scottsbluff National Monument in Nebraska.
The witness report sent to MUFON said: “Took this picture facing south towards the moon while it was completely covering the sun.
There was a glut of UFO sightings during the eclipse, as expected, but many were just lens flares.
“The photo shows three dark unidentified objects in formation above the city.”
The witness initially thought they were birds, but felt they were too far away, and no birds were seen at the time of the picture.
They added: “I did not notice the objects until looking through the photos later in the day.
“None of the objects seems to look exactly the same.
“One is long and bullet shaped and the other two have hazy edges.”
Another snap which includes a dark disc-shaped object was taken in Ohio during the eclipse.
