I have a lot of anomalous activity on my security camera I have set up facing west on my back patio. I decided to view it a little after 10:00 PM MST. I noticed this long cylindrical object and hit record. It is traveling from the west very slowly toward the east. I was a bit shocked at what I was seeing so I did not have the presence of mind to switch the night vision off to see if it was visible without it. I did capture a still photo. In Night Vision the object seemed to be illuminated the entire length. As it was about to exit the frame a small blinking light (a small plane probably) passed it going the opposite direction. It can be seen in the video. A few insects and orbs are flying around ( there are a lot of orbs usually but we haven't had swarms of insects, just a few) There of course are cars causing some lens flares but this is not what I an reporting, I am aware of these types of camera anomalies. I was in my gown and in bed so I did not get up and run outside I just watched it on my WYZE phone app. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

Roswell, NM
I noticed a bright object in the sky and requested that my brother and his girlfriend take a look. Upon zooming in on it with my phone I realized it appeared to be a diamond. The object was stationary for at least 30 minutes. After driving to another location I noticed that it was gone. I asked some co-workers the next day if they noticed it and a few confirmed that they did.

There is a NW area of Roswell I wanted to film some footage for my YouTube Paranormal Show. I stopped at the location that seem suitable along Highway 246 NW of Roswell NM. I set up my Camera, and right away I took 5 pictures at 11:04 am on 8/30/2021. The First 3 have this very large mist object in them, the other 2 do not. You can see through this mist in the picture, so that is telling me it is not no bug, or bird. When you look at all three pictures you can tell it's moving. The Third Picture in the series will be sent by email to ufocntr@nwlink.com .

Took a picture of the moon behind clouds. When cropping the picture (which I didn't do), I saw 2 objects in front of the moon. I ran back outside to take another and the second picture looks strange also. They appeared to be an angel shape and what looks like the capital letter N from what I can see. The camera is pointing in the easterly direction. I didn't tell anyone "official" until now because of fear. Now I think I can show them without men in black or similar people coming after me. I have shared this with ENIGMA also. [NUFORC annotation: Bird - Possible]

At approximately 20:15 my wife, child, and I. were traveling south on US. 285. We were south of Vaughn, NM. We witnessed several orange balls of light. They were a little bit lighter than a street light in color. These objects were about twice the size of a star. As we drove south towards Roswell, NM, we noticed them. They would disappear for about three to four minutes at a time. They would reappear in the same way, which is to say, it was like flipping a switch off and on. As they sat in the sky, they were about the distance of your hand sideways at arm's length off of the horizon. The objects were to the west of US. 285. This is a clear night with little air traffic. they would reappear and multiply. At one point there was no less than six visible at a time. . All of them stayed in the same general area. They did not fall towards earth as would a flare, or fire work. When they would multiply, they would do so by moving horizontally. The hole sighting lasted ap! proximately 45 minutes . Starting at 20:15, and ending at approximately 21:00 New Mexico time.
