The report, as filed
Family vacation on the Disney Cruise Line ship “The Dream”. Wednesday November 20th, approximately 11:17 PM, Location was open ocean 6 hours after leaving Disney’s Island Castaway Cay located in the Bahamas. While sitting on balcony of our state room, 3 of us witness what looked like a “shooting star” but with no streak or tail, directly above us in the sky on a clear night, an object that crossed the sky at high speed and then changed trajectory to do a full figure 8 in the sky spanning a wide range in the night sky, then increased speed and disappearing in the direction it was first traveling. Object looked like a star: satellite, bright circle. The sighting lasted about 4-7 seconds. Ruled out drones as they are prohibited on ship and was too high of a distance and speed was too fast to be anything flying less that 10,000 feet. We had never seen anything like this before and immediately knew we had just witnessed something that shook us to the core. Witnesses were sober and coherent. The path of the figure 8 was with very smooth curvature. Figure 8 would have been sideways from my point of view, object originated from west to east, then rounded out a figure 8 south to north and then at consistent speed but increased speed after completing the figure 8 traveling west before disappearing. Had the speed similar to a “shooting star”. Ruled out satellite/ airplane/ space station.

I was operating an aircraft at 39,000 feet over the Pacific Ocean on the F Tracks between Hawaii and California flying eastbound roughly 100nm west of FLITY intersection (N29.26* W131.02*) at 1200 GMT (Night time over the Pacific) when we noticed a very bright light that would appear to fade into view and move at a high rate of speed in what appeared to be various north/south south/north tracks with a slight perception of an elliptical orbit. The object would appear for about 10-20 seconds and would fade away before re-appearing in another 5 - 60 seconds. At one point there were two of these objects which appeared to operate in formation and also in opposite track directions. This happened repeatedly for about 25 minutes. The objects appeared to be at a very high altitude from our vantage point at 39,000 feet where we were above all of the weather over the Pacific Ocean. Multiple aircraft in our vicinity also noticed the objects and discussed what we were seeing over the air to air frequencies for Oceanic crossing (121.5 MHz and 123.45 MHz). The objects appeared to be operating at altitudes well above what conventional known civilian and military aircraft typically operate at and led some of the observers to question if they were in fact in orbit.

First saw the bright and dim lights circle then move away from each other. Saw this a few times within 15 minutes. Then saw 2 shooting star-like lights travel from SE to NE within 30 seconds of each other. About 5 minutes later, saw 2 lights appear in NE sky in same direction that shooting stars traveled. The 2 lights moved around briefly then disappeared.

While in cruise, a bright, oval shaped light appeared ahead and at a slightly higher altitude than our aircraft. A second, similar light suddenly appears much closer and to the right of us. Both lights suddenly disappear. After the encounter I started to video similar objects but at a much higher altitude (at least above 50,000 feet) and much farther away. As you will see in the video, there are several lights that accelerate at an astonishing rate only to come to a stop. In over 30 years of flying, I have seen meteors, satellites and even a comet (Hale Bop) but never anything like this close encounter followed by the moving lights in Space. I have recently spoken with a few fellow airline pilots including a close friend of mine that have either personally witnessed or have at least heard of similar lights.

On a flight from São Paulo to London, flying at 36,000 feet above the English Channel at 2:15PM UTC I spotted a strange object flying at a similar altitude from my window seat. I thought it was some kind of military aircraft to begin with, however it quickly changed into a flat, oval type shape, rotated vertically and horizontally. Once this had happened, I began to film the video that I’m going to attach to this report. The still photos were taken when I believed it to be a military aircraft. The object appeared to remain in the same place for a short while, before flying off leaving a white trail behind it. The colour of the object was a grey / black, it did not change, however its shape did, as I mentioned previously. There was only one and I did not see any other strange movements / activity.
