The National UFO reporting center

The National UFO Reporting Center is an organization which analyzes UFO sightings in the United States. Operating since 1974, the organization has cataloged more than 1,25,000 flying object sightings.

Peter Davenport, the current director of the organization says that he absolutely believes in UFO sightings, as data is there to substantiate it.

"Read the cases and you come to the realization that these objects we've been calling UFOs for 70 years are being seen across the country and around the world on a daily basis," said Davenport, reports the New York Post.

According to Davenport, the most common type of sighting report which the center receives is weird lights in the sky. The director revealed that reports of red, orange, amber, yellow or gold lights in the skies have drastically increased since 2012.

Davenport also added that good and reliable photos of UFO are very scarce as people used to get just seconds to capture the flying objects which move at sky-rocketing speed.
