The above linear formation of orbs floated above me in the evening consisting of 10 orbs in a line equidistant from each other. Also seemed to have colorful tints to them. After watching them for no more than a minute: they looked disappeared as if the dissolved into the night sky. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

We were out looking at sky with telescope so kids could look at venus which was visible that night with telescope, then noticed a bright orange, red object in the sky east of where venus was. It was visable for approx. 25 to 30 seconds then it disappeared.

While sitting the hot tub with my kids, I glanced up and saw a string formation of lights heading southeast. I estimate that they were between 5 and 10 thousand feet in altitude because there was a plane above and to the west of it that was a commercial airliner. The lights were steady and not overly bright. The lights did not waver but were consistently in line with each other almost as if they were connected.

The sky was dark and cloudy, so I could not see what was making the constant, very low, spinning noise.

Hello! I recently experienced an extraterrestrial event that was not a UFO, but could have been "alien" activity. I was doing research on Malaysia Flight 370 and was piecing things together with a few friends (such as the fact "they are not human" was said in the blackbox recording and the plane had simply disappeared). I was extremely tired so I had decided to put my computer down and to go to sleep. I fell asleep and the next morning I woke up and saw a triangle mark on my right thigh. I sent an image to my friend, she saw it immediately in the photo replying "what ((two words deleted)) is that, you probably got abducted." That hadn't even crossed my mind. Then I was thinking about the research me and my friends had done the night before involving the sentence "they are not human". This seemed very stupid to me and I was thinking I had just overthought the situation. A few nights later, I felt a pinch on my rib, and immediately passed out (it happened fast and I had no intention of falling asleep, but woke up the next morning). The area on my rib that felt pinched the night before felt extremely bruised. I looked at it to notice that it was a triangle mark, and hurt extremely worse than the one on my thigh. I do not have a picture of this one. Long story short, I woke up with triangle marks on my body, TWICE. My orange tabby also kept biting at the marks, which he never bites me. Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
