I was sound asleep, probably about nine in the morning and was awakened by a very loud crash noise. I live near a fighter jet training Air Force base so I am used to loud planes flying over quite often - sometimes very low. This noise was much louder!! Honestly, it sounded like a crash. I jumped out of bed and ran to the window and saw what looked like a missile flying by. It was bullet shaped, metallic looking silver gray, and moving quite slow at a very slight decline. It was flying at about my eye level from the house and then disappeared into the trees. I waited to report this because I thought people would think that I am crazy. I have never seen anything like this before in my entire life. I hope this information is helpful.

I was seated in seat 4A window seat on Allegiant Flight 3145, an Airbus 320 aircraft, that was at 34,000 feet cruise altitude at 450 knots (as related by the piloting air crew). As I glanced out the window I witnessed an oblong, cylindrical wingless object at an estimated 15-20 thousand foot altitude. This object was on a course parallel to Flight 3145 but on a 180-degree trajectory. Allegiant Flight 3145 was out of Austin-Bergstrum International Airport, Texas, with a destination of McGhee-Tyson Airport, Knoxville, Tennessee. The object was visible for an estimated ten seconds off the port side, below and disappeared aft. At the completion of my flight I spoke to one of the pilots after I identified myself with identification and asked if they had had a radar contact at this estimated altitude at 08:58 CDT during our flight. This pilot stated that the flight crew had not had a radar contact at that time. I asked if this observation was reportedable to the FAA and he stated that it was. A check of the FAA website referred me to your site after a second search. The object was completely white, cylindrical without lights and without wings. Estinated size was comparable to an airliner. Weather was scattered clouds and the object was above cloud level. My professional background is that as a paramedic with thirty-four years experience as both paid and volunteer.

On my way home on the Edmunds to Kingston ferry. I had seen a large part of orca on my way there, so I got out of my car with my phone ready to take photos. There were three lights in a triangular patent at a moderate altitude off the coast of SeaTac airport and Boeing Field. The brightest of the lights had a fluid movement in a vertical Position, the light was very bright. The objects at times seemed physical when they were at their brightest, and then more oblique as they dimmed. Spontaneously they disappear. I have timestamp on all my photos and it will show you that they were there one moment and then gone.

I happened to be looking up to the South and in between the clouds I could see a white cylinder standing on its edge floating West above the clouds about the speed of a jet plane. The wind is about 15 to 25 miles an hour and it was going against the wind. I watched it for approximately 20 seconds before a cloud passed underneath it and it and obscured my view.

I was sitting on my patio when I saw a plane fly by then I heard a very loud sound that sounded electronic. Then I saw a massive far away orange thing that looked similar to an airplane, but it had a giant sphere in the middle and I think it looked like it had the head of a bird but near the end I almost remember it not having that. That part is something I barely remember which is weird, this happened yesterday. It was way too big to be an airplane and it was going in tight circles somewhat fast. Too fast and tight for an airplane for sure. Then it vanished right before my eyes. I looked for it for a little bit longer and found it again lower to the ground but still high up. It was like the wind did not affect it at all. This is when my vision got a little fuzzier. Like on a 1980's camera but it was my eyes. So it was getting harder to see it. I pulled out my phone to record it. I couldn't find it I turned off my phone to .look again and it was gone. This time I didn't see it again

Looking to the east from our ships balcony. Object appeared north of us as bright "fireworks". Flew in and out of clouds gaining on the ship. When it was right in front of us, the colors faded and a grey metallic cylinder appeared. Nose of it was shaking from the friction of its entry into the atmosphere with white "trailings" coming from it.. It passed us flying behind a cloud and that's it. No splashdown, no noise ... we never saw it again. Probably 100's of miles from us, yet to us it was the size of a planes fuselage as they land a block from us where we live right by an airport, sans the wings and deafening noise of a jets engine . We thought we were getting attacked and neither of us thought of actually getting a video of it. I've contacted a government agency that deals with rockets and they told me to let you know.. Description of circumstance? Star lit sky with intermittent clouds. 2 sober and straight old ( 55 and 66) ladies enjoying looking east from our balcony on a cruise ship. Light from our room was on, so it was not hard to see the water, thousands of stars and partial moon every now and then. Whole encounter took no more than 2 mins.picture is the sky in front of us. Hand drawn slop tries to explain object. So sorry !!!!

The first night I only noticed one oblong shape hovering. The second night I was more aware and the sky was full of movement along with many in different shapes ( triangular, oblong, circle, sphere) hovering. I even seen beams of light scan around the said UFO's. I noticed something falling from the sky on several accounts As I was sitting out watching the sky I heard tin crashing in a neighbors yard. When I looked in that direction I seen something that seemed to be crawling and the eyes were like lights. Then I heard dogs barking in another neighbors direction when I seen the same lighted eyes except this time it was walking with a slump. I will be watching tonight but I have no camera to take pictures or video. I do apologize, I wish I did.

near my window that were beyond anything I've seen. Lights varied from green, blue, red and white. It flashed away quickly and dissappeared after several hours of staying in the same place.

An object travels in a straight line at a very high speed, not like an animal flying. I can only relate my impression to a bullet but I didn’t hear anyone shooting. The object came out of the woods of my backyard and traveled straight towards the front yard passing between the house and the shed at a height of 6-8 ft. I took the image on my iPhone from my tv screen and recorded it in real time and slow play. The object appears to be opaque and leaves a trace image of its trail. I’m guessing it traveled 50 feet in one second? I don’t know why the camera triggered and then happened to catch the image. The next camera in the direction it headed was not triggered to record but did capture the image of that area about 10 seconds before the moment that was recorded. The night before there was a light in the area that the object came from. [NUFORC annotation: Bird - Possible]

The object was hovering in the sky completely stationary. I noticed it out of the car window. I'm not sure how far away it was. It was a clear sunny day and just caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of my eye. Zoom in to the right side of uploaded pictures to see object.
