2013: March UFO & Alien Sightings

2013: March UFO & Alien Sightings

March 2013 emerged as a pivotal period for unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), marked by high-profile sightings from Texas to Argentina that challenged local authorities and captured the public’s imagination. While the world’s attention was fixed on the upcoming declassification of the UK’s final UFO files, March brought a diverse array of encounters—from “fireball” formations over Liberty County to mysterious “summoning” incidents in the Cordoba mountains. These events occurred against a backdrop of increasing global reports, with Canada alone recording over 1,100 sightings during the year. This archive documents the most notable alien sightings and unexplained events of March 2013, bridging the gap between local witness testimony and a global move toward disclosure.

Summary:  Patricia, age 27 at the time—was in the kitchen of her house. The time was around 17:15 hours and having completed some chores, she was taking a break. Patricia’s kitchen has a window from which the trees of neighboring houses can be seen. Specifically, a palta (avocado tree) located in the backyard of a neighboring property. She was looking at the bough of this tree when something caught her attention. According to Patricia, she saw what she described as “a little man staring back at me” from between the branches and leaves of the tree. The “entity” in question (according to Patricia) was in a squatting position and staring at her fixedly. Alarmed, Patricia ran and called for her husband, who was in another part of their home, to show him what was on the tree. When her husband reached the kitchen and looked through the window, he saw nothing unusual. He tried to calm her down (Patricia was excited and kept repeating “I swear I saw it, it was in the trees, looking at me”), and a few moments later, knowing the interest of one of the sources (Carlos Sainz), she went to his house to tell him about the experience. Patricia said the being reminded her of the character “Gollum” from The Lord of the Rings saga. She estimated its height at around one meter, despite not having seen the figure upright. It was very thin, hairless and with whitish eyes, “huddled” between the branches of the avocado tree. She stressed the fact that it stared fixedly at her. According to the source Patricia is a person with no interest whatsoever in the UFO phenomenon or in strange “events”, and is not in the least bit fantasy prone. According to the source who emphasizes that he doesn’t think it has anything to do with what Patricia saw (but does not know it for a fact) in the months following the apparition, one of the residents of the house adjacent to the avocado tree (a neighbor, known to the source) contracted a serious malady. Weeks later, in 2014, sadly this person committed suicide on account of this malady.

It was tall and it had red, glowing eyes. I was in so much shock, i couldn’t even move. Then it jumped out the window and ran into what looked like a spaceship. Nobody believed me.

Location:  Long Beach, Mississippi
Time:  
Summary:  I was driving eastbound on highway 90 headed to an afternoon event. disney on ice. when i observed this craft hovering less than 100 yards south of the seawall at an observed altitude of less than 500 feet. the day was overcast, and the cloud cover was low less than 1500 feet. looking south east, just below the clouds, i spotted this large object,off towards the beach, a dark metallic black grey aerial vehicle, reasonably large, having a shape that was not spherical, nor did it appear to be any of the usual military aircraft/helicopters or military equipment that normally frequent the area. i observed it hovering directly above the beach, just south of the shoreline. it was not causing the water beneath it to spray (for instance if it were a propeller driven helicopter type) and i first thought it resembled a military hover craft , but not at that altitude. it was perfectly stationary hovering above the tree line as i drove past it on the highway. i kept looking at it as i passed it and could see the details of the external structure clearly. it was greater than 12 to 15 feet in thickness/height, and over 40 to 60 feet in width, having a rounded shape akin to perhaps a saucer or maybe an elongated teardrop. the external sides had many empennages and intricate pipework, railings, though there did not appear any sort of external antennas. i could not see any windows or ports as the sides of the vehicle were totally dark grey to black, dull and non reflective. it had some resemblances to the millenium falcon, and some to the service vehicle depicted in the district 9 movie as far as the external appearance of it. that is to say it was not sleek and or smooth on the surface structure. it looked more utilitarian. i kept comparing it against every known military vehicles and aircraft i am familiar with and kept coming up with nothing resembling it. i thought it might be a special ops team (airforce) doing some exercise using a blackhawk type)but there were no rotors, and there were no ropes or operators on the ground. once i had gone through my list of possibilities, i could only conclude that it was some sort of alien service craft, observing/surveying the south beach traffic as other vehicles and myself , passed it accordingly. i told my grand daughter, who was in the car with me to look and see the flying saucer on the beach and she observed it as well, i opened the moon roof to see it as i passed directly in front of it. as we passed, i regretted not having a camera to photograph this thing, because i had never seen anything so different hovering so close to the highway like it was. it remained perfectly stationary and motionless the entire time we passed it, i felt like i could have pulled off the road and walked up to it had i taken the time to stop. then, i realized we were running late, and had to keep on to our destination. when we returned a few hours later, it was gone. the actual date and time can be verified with respect to the holiday on ice show, other than that, its purely my personal visual observation that lead me to believe that this craft was not commercial, or earth based military in origin. it was , without question one of the most bizarre spacecraft type objects i have ever seen.

Summary:  The witness woke up from a sound sleep to the sounds of her back door knob rattling. She had just rented a small house in the country and it was her third night there. She reportedly saw a strange creature (or alien) staring at her through the window at the top of the old door on the back porch. As soon as the creature saw that she was looking at it, it ran off.
Apparently the creature came back around 21:30 on the 14th she had been texting a friend when she saw it at the same window, so she quickly began taking pictures with her cellphone. She took approximately 50 photos from all different angles and with it turning its head. She even got pictures of the figure (whatever it was) apparently cloaking itself.
She had the feeling it was trying to ‘lure’ her to the door. It was reptilian in appearance, it had eyes very similar to a ‘gray’ alien, but it had scales on its head and its shoulders. It also had bony spike shapes over the skull and she could see was three fingers. It was approximately 7ft tall and looked strong. It stared directly into her eyes, when she moved, its head moved. When its head turned she saw wrinkles on the neck, the nose was flat and it had no lips. It appeared to have projected images onto the glass and was ‘shape shifting’. A black spot seemed to appear on the center of its face and then it shifted into what looked like a ‘clown with a gift in its hands. According to the witness it also shifted into the image of an old man dressed like a priest.

Location:  Way Kambas National Park, Lampung, Indonesia
Time:       1840                        Duration: 
Altitude:                Distance:                         Shape: 
Features: 
Summary:  Rangers patrolling the Way Kambas National Park (TNWK) in Lampung claim to have sighted dozens of pygmies in a number of areas across the park. According to them, the pygmies sport dreadlocks, measure no more than 50 centimeters tall and do not wear any clothing. “A number of rangers claim the pygmies grow their dreadlocks down to their waist. The first sighting by the rangers was on March 17 at 6:40 p.m. local time,” said TNWK spokesman Sukatmoko. He added that several rangers patrolling the park claimed the pygmies were seen moving to the PT Nusantara Tropical Fruit (NTF) plantation. They were seen running from the TNWK forest to the plantation.
“Apparently, many fruit trees, such as banana, guava and dragon fruit, are grown in the NTF plantation area. If the pygmies like fruit, they might have entered the plantation for food,” said Sukatmoko. Forest rangers have secured a number of points at the border between TNWK and PT NTF, concerned that the safety of the pygmies is at stake due to the presence of many workers at the plantation. “We will try to anticipate the situation with the help of local residents and PT NTF employees. If they come across the pygmies, they should not harm them,” he said. Sukatmoko said that based on information conveyed by forest rangers, the group of pygmies consisted of around 15 individuals. When the rangers spotted them, they pygmies, believed to be an isolated group of people, were walking through a swamp. “The rangers monitored their presence for around 15 minutes from a distance of around 35 meters. When the rangers were about to approach them, they immediately hid behind trees and vanished. They ran very fast,” said Sukatmoko. He added that on March 20, patrolling rangers sighted the pygmies again in the same place, but this time they observed from further away and for a shorter time. Sukatmoko said his office was unsure whether the pygmies had always lived in TNWK, or whether they were newcomers from other islands. To record their presence, the TNWK center has installed surveillance cameras in the forest.
“We can record pictures of the pygmies at night. After its proven they exist, we will immediately inform the Forestry Ministry, or even the President,” he said. Sukatmoko promised his office would protect the pygmies and not disturb them. “We believe they really exist in TNWK. We’re making strenuous efforts to find them. In the event that we do, we hope the government protects them. Our rangers have seen them with their own eyes, but have yet to take pictures of them,” he said, adding the center had allowed academics and researchers to trace and study the group. Indonesian Forum for the Environment (Walhi) Lampung chapter campaign director Mukri Friatna said the pygmies had been sighted in a number of forests in Indonesia, such as in Kerinci Seblat (West Sumatra), Liang Bua (Flores) and Bone (South Sulawesi). “In Kerinci Seblat, hey are known as the Orang Pendek (short people), in Flores as homo floresiensis, and in Bone as members of the Oni tribe. In Mount Kerinci, the creature is depicted as having inverted legs but is very agile among the dense foliage,” said Mukri.

Summary:  A young man had just gone to his bed he closed his eyes and saw coming from the other room where his stepmother and 3 months old sister slept a gray smoke that suddenly changed shape between human and humanoid that appeared to have horns on its head. The creature then placed its hands on his stepmother’s and little sister’s heads. He opened his eyes and it was gone.

Time:      night                           Duration: 
Altitude:                Distance:                         Shape: 
Features: 
Summary:  A highly interesting and controversial event occurred on the above date: photographs of 3   luminous entities at the place known as Plaza Fundadores in Playa del Carmen. These images were taken by Ernesto Z. Ortiz, a known professional with a master’s degree in Regional Development and Sustainable Tourism, a Nicaraguan national who has lived in Mexico for a long time, residing at Playa del Carmen. He is also the leader and founder of an NGO that supports the ecology. His probity and honesty are therefore assured.It should be mentioned at this point that the main goal in taking these photographs was to obtain night photographs of the impressive archway that represents two intertwined mermaids that are found in Plaza Fundadores itself. However, much more than that was obtained: it should be noted that those strange luminous beings were not visible at the time the photos were taken. They only became apparent after the images were inspected.

Summary:  Mr. Fernando Diaz, a local resident was headed to work as usual Mr. Diaz was driving along PR-3, one of the island’s main thoroughfares. They sky was light at that time of the morning, although the sun was not fully out yet. Mr. Diaz was driving his blue 2001 Hyundai Brio at an approximate speed of 35 miles per hour, heading from the town of Guayama to the town of Salinas. As he approached kilometer 3.0, right in front of the facilities of the Division de Transito y Vehiculos Hurtados (Traffic and Stolen Vehicles Division) of the Guayama State Police, he noticed that the vehicle ahead of him began zigzagging, as if trying to avoid something.
When he looked he could see something strange coming over the vehicle—something he had never seen before. It was an enormous dark-winged figure that appeared to have collided against the vehicle in front of him, and was trying to stand up in an effort to take flight. His first impression was that it was a gigantic bird. The creature never had enough time to get up off the ground and struck the grille of Mr. Diaz’s car head-on. With the same momentum, it continued sliding along the vehicle’s hood until it struck the windshield, continuing to slide off the hood. Mr. Diaz stepped on the brake, terrified at the sight, and brought his vehicle to a sudden halt. Luckily there were no cars behind him. After stopping, he looked through the rear-view mirror to see exactly what he had hit, but was unable to see anything. Although the event lasted only seconds, Mr. Diaz was able to take in considerable details of the creature that hit his car. According to his description, the creature had a broad face like a Pit-bull Terrier. It had as short snout and nose resembling that of a dog. Its eyes were small, human-sized, but completely dark and glossy. It had something like ears on either side of its head. It had no feathers; its skin was like a bat’s and although he thinks it may have had hair, it was short and smooth along the body. The creature was black or dark brown in color, and seemed to have arms aside from wings—that is to say, it had six extremities: two legs, two arms and two wings. Its feet appeared to have multiple toes with claws, and its extended wings resembled those of a bat. Mr. Diaz noted that the wings appeared to stretch out from two to three feet on either side of his vehicle. A 2001 Hyundai Brio measures exactly 5 feet and 8 inches wide, meaning that if we round it off to 6 feet and add a minimum of two additional feet to each side, we would be talking of a creature whose wingspan was 10 feet from wingtip to wingtip. Mr. Diaz admitted to us that the first thing that came to his mind was that he had seen the ‘Devil’. Despite his fear, he could see that the vehicle ahead of him was pulling into a Gulf station some 400 meters ahead on the right side of the road. Once there, he saw the driver of the other vehicle—a white Toyota Corolla—stepping out. Excitedly, Mr. Diaz asked him: “Did you see that?!” Both drivers spent a few minutes discussing the awful experience, but since they had to reach their respective workplaces, decided to continue their journeys. They decided not to make a formal complaint to the police, since they were certain no one was going to believe them and would probably consider it a joke, and mock them. Mr. Diaz told his co-workers about the event and one of them accompanied him back to the site at around 10:00 a.m. to see if they could find the thing that hit his vehicle, but there were no traces to be found.
