A visual summary of the major UAP types reported in July 2024, including the "jellyfish" entity and geometric craft witnessed during the historic summer wave.
2024: July UAP & Alien Sightings
July 2024 was a landmark month for unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), marked by the annual celebration of World UFO Day on July 2nd. This global event, which traces its roots to the 1947 Roswell Incident, saw enthusiasts and researchers alike demanding greater government transparency as a new wave of high-definition sightings was reported from the United Kingdom to Sarasota, Florida. While the Pentagon’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) continued to analyze hundreds of reports—eventually flagging 21 cases as particularly “mysterious”—public interest reached a fever pitch following the proposal of the UAP Disclosure Act of 2024 in the U.S. Senate. This archive documents the most compelling alien sightings and unexplained aerial encounters of July 2024, highlighting a month where the quest for disclosure moved from the shadows into the mainstream.
Date: July 9 2024
Location: Sarasota, Florida, Sarasota County near Proctor Road and Honore Ave intersection

Time: 2145 Duration: 15 minutes
Altitude: Distance: 50 ft Shape: Triangle
Features: Slow moving, hovering low, just above the telephone poles and tree line. Solid black triangle with 3 lights on the bottom.
Summary: I felt my house rumble and went outside with my son and saw a large, solid black, triangle slowly moving East above our house last night. It was about the size of 3 small cars, and it appeared to be a flat triangle. It was moving very low, about 20ft about the telephone poles and tree line; we were able to see it clearly. I couldn’t hear any frogs or crickets, which was abnormal. There was a slight whooshing sound when it was directly above us, but no sound as it went by. There were lights illuminated on each corner of the triangle. My son and I stood on the front porch and watched the triangle travel East, then come back West, back and forth a few times. Then we saw a small private plane come by, also flying very low, and then the triangle flew away to the North quickly; the small plane appeared to be trying to get a better look at it and scared it off. I took a picture with my iPhone, but the picture came out very blurry, which is strange, because the images before and after trying to capture the triangle were clear on my iPhone; possible interference.

Location: Eagle Grove, Iowa
Time: 1100 Duration: 3 – 5 seconds
Altitude: Distance: 150 feet Shape: Rectangle
Features: 20 foot drone-like box
Summary: PILOT STATUS. I was a private pilot, and I was cleared to fly solo. I had “officially” logged about 20 hours in my own Cessna 172 with my flight instructor. I also owned a Piper Warrior II, and an ultralight model of a Piper Cub. I have flown a Rotax-driven powered parachute, and have owned and flown four different powered paragliders.
SCIENTIST STATUS. I have a doctorate in financial management. I published my dissertation, which debunked a very popular financial model that won a Nobel Prize. The model I debunked was called the Mean Variance Hypothesis. I have a Masters degree as well. I work in the areas of A.I. and algorithms, banking and digital currency creation, and venture capital. Although I do not call myself a scientist, due to the financial nature of my practitioner’s work, I had to take the same statistics courses and write my dissertation using the scientific method in the same manner as all of the other scientists.
ANECDOTAL REPORT. I was driving my car South on Highway 17, just South of Eagle Grove, the morning of Friday, July 12, 2024 with my wife and two puppies. It was around 11:00, although it may have been between 10:30 or 11:30. I had not been using any drugs or alcohol. We were our our way to Fort Dodge to do some shopping. It was daylight and there were no clouds overhead. Visibility was excellent. As we approached a farm acreage on the right side of the road, I noticed what appeared to be a somewhat peculiar black drone hovering in the air. It was square, and shaped like a thick, square pizza box. I observed it for 3 – 5 seconds. I saw that it had solid sides, that were all at right angles. The dimensions of the boxy shaped object were approximately 1 : 6 : 6, with things protruding above and details visible on the underside. All of the details on the underside were also black or dark grey, and I don’t know if I was seeing propulsion, landing gear, or what I was seeing, or if it protruded downward.
There was a central feature protruding upward, which was less than twice as wide as the object’s sidewall height. The central feature protruded upward less than the height of the object’s sides. There were also four features protruding slightly upward, one at each corner. I thought this was peculiar because the motors of propeller driven drones are inset from the outer walls of a drone, due to the length of the propellers. These motors (if they were even motors), however, were out at the very corners of the object. There were no propellers visible. At first I had no reference for the size of the object, and noticed that it appeared to rotate about 30 degrees in a counter-clockwise fashion, and began to descend slowly and smoothly. It appeared to be very stable, and had none of the typical drone wobble that I have seen on small drones. It descended behind a barn which shocked me, because I had thought it would have been in front of the barn.
The fact that it descended behind the barn indicated to me that its size had to be at least 12 feet across, but it could have been up to 25 feet across. I cannot specify with any degree of certainty the exact size of the object, other than that it had to be substantially larger than any drone that can be purchased on the internet. Judging from the size, flight observation, and dimensions of the object it very well could have been man-made. It displayed no characteristics of acceleration that were unexplainable. The square shape could have been a drone, but it was indeed a very unique drone if so. Judging from its size, and what I have seen of large, homemade drones on the internet, this object was large enough to transport a pilot and a passenger, if it was a drone. As it descended behind the barn, I exclaimed in astonishment to my wife, “Did you see that? That was either a gigantic drone or a UFO.” She had been playing with the puppies and did no see anything, and told me that I had not seen anything. our car passed the acreage and I looked back to see if it was still visible, but it seems to have descended down into or behind the corn in the field to our right.
