My daughter with autism told my husband and myself that there was an astronaut in the sky. Our younger daughter then looked up and seen it too and told us to come look. So we looked for ourselves. There was a white oval shape hovering above our backyard. It started to move slowly, not increasing or decreasing elevation. Just slowly moving west. I started filming, the video just shows a dot but with the naked it was very clearly oval. It did not look as high as a plane would be and had no wings or lights. It was completely and eerily silent. In the video you can see it suddenly changes direction and then disappears. I’m only reporting because we were certain it was not a drone as there was no sound or propellers. It was definitely not a plane or helicopter. It was close enough for us to make that distinction. We didn’t think it was a balloon because it didn’t appear to be rising and was still before it started moving.

This morning (5/3/2020) about 5am, I spotted small, glowing, moving orbs in the sky . They were moving single file to the SE. A ll were equal distant apart except for orb #6, which lagged a bit behind. The orbs behind #6 were all back to equal distance apart. There were 15 orbs total, however there could have been more that I had not noticed previously to looking up.

I was awoken at 4:44 am on 1/5/18, I sat up in bed and had an overwhelming sense of being watched, after investigating my apartment and finding no one I noticed I could not find my dog, I then went to my bathroom and sat down on the toilet. Suddenly I was nude standing in what seemed to be a large cavern, in front of me was a 30 ft wide infinitely tall windowless doorless tower with a light emmting from behind the tower, the color of this light was of a hue I have never seen and therefore makes it very difficult to discribe. I can remember the way the floor felt on my bare feet, it was cold and damp and gritty. Then I was suddenly in my bed again and in my clothes, wide awake the entire time. My wife who was asleep noticed nothing until I woke her up by grabbing hold of her and pulling her close to me. I have had bouts of nausea off and on since and images of extraterrestrials make me very uncomfortable now. To the point of causing chills and anxiety. The whole experience seems to have lasted a little over an hour according to the clock when I got up after the entire thing it was 5:59am. Although the whole thing only seemed to last 10 to 15 minutes total time remembered.

I woke up with the feeling of being watched, I sat up and searched my apartment but no one was there, I then lost almost an hour of time I cannot recall, I only remember a tall windowless building surrounded by a strange light that was a color I cannot even describe, I am honestly scared and don't know what to think.
