The report, as filed
Me and my wife were sitting on are front porch. I noticed 2 large lights moving are way. the lights were moving vary slow, we were able to walk out to are parking lot and watched as the lights moved right over the top of use, the lights were about 4 feet round but didn't light anything up on the ground, or on the object its self, i would say that it was about 100 to 200 feet about us, It went right over the top of are barn and was not making any noise at all and moving slow, It was a dark night with no moon so we couldn't make out the shape of the object, the Lights were about 20 to 30 feet apart, as the object went over are barn i could see red lights going in circles around the back side of the big lights. I am a Vietnam vet and have seen all kinds of aircraft but i have never seen anything that big moving that slow and not make a sound.

I was talking to my co-worker about seeing a lot of UFOs lately when I pointed out a star that was moving fast. It flew right at an airplane but passed and seconds later it just disappeared over head. One airplane could have been repelling the light away from my vantage that's what it looked like.

Looking at planet line up. Gazed up at the stars and became aware of what appeared to be some stars moving across the morning sky three objects in triangular formation followed by three objects in single file over a short period all moving at a fast steady speed all objects disappeared into the distance near the planetary alignment.

Looked like white feathers, in formation traveling across the sky. 500 ft in altitude, and 75 ft wide. with about 50 foot of spacing between.

Just before sunrise on the morning of the 25th of November 2019 I was sitting in my hot tub with three other friends at my property near bald rock in berry creek California and we were observing satellites and discussing them when we saw what looked like four satellites very close to each other moving from the west to towards the east. They were in a staggered line formation, all traveling the same speed and direction, approximately the same speed a satellite moves, but a bit slower, and at first we thought they were satellites on a similar orbit. As the objects passed from our far left to far right field of vision we began seeing more and more of these objects essentially moving in a staggered line formation and stretching for well over a mile. It took at least three minutes for them to all pass to the far right of our field of view and out of sight. There were several triangle formations within this staggered line but it appeared they were three separate o! bjects, not on me triangular shaped object. There was no sound and no bright lights. Just a steady line of these dots that were unambiguously remarkable. The sky was completely clear and there were no clouds. After approx two minuites of watching I ran to get another friend who confirmed what we were seeing as he was still able to see about ten of these objects in the last minute or so that they were visible so that makes five witnesses total. . I have seen many strange things out in the mountains where I live because there is very little light pollution but this was single handed lay the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen.

I’m a disabled veteran with chronic pain. I was out in my hot tub at around 2:30 am. I am an avid star gazer, and the area around my house is perfect for watching the night stars! On this particular night, I was gazing up into to the night ski. When all of a sudden it flew right into my vision. I was looking south toward Sacramento California, when it came into view, I could clearly see that it was the same type of craft from the movie Predator. Being a propulsion engineer In the navy, and stationed onboard the USS Ranger CVN 61. It was no higher than 5-6 hundred feet from the ground. I immediately look for a propulsion signature as it passed over. There was no noise, no flames, or heat signatures, no wind from engines, to speak of. I live not too far from Beale AFB, it came from that direction. It was a very clear night and I saw it as clear as that seen In predator as it flew over!!!
