What looked like a sphere appeared on an infrared camera pointed upward. It moved away from the camera, then to the right and took on a tic tac appearance. Then it turned back towards the camera, then moved left and looked like a florescent bug, the forward part of the object remaining the same. Then, it lost most of its florescence revealing a rod-like structure with features as it proceeded upwards to the left and out of the screen.

A sphere enters the screen of an infrared camera from the top. It appears to enlarge slightly, then it splits into two spheres which both exit the screen from the top. I couldn's stop the motion at the moment of separation so the stills don't do it justice. This splitting behaviour has been observed and photographed a number of times. It may be the reason that there seems to be so many of them. My impression is that they do general surveillance.

During flight I look outside and saw this white cylinder type object flying parallel to the airplane. I took a video with my cell.

One object entered and left an "unmanned" camera frame across four seconds, moving left to right. Its aspect or viewing angle remained the same throughout. It had two "headlights" which always faced the same direction towards the camera, and a single blinking light on its base. There was no apparent change in size to suggest advance or retreat, and it moved in the direction it was pointed. The seeming downward movement is misleading; the camera was facing about 85 degrees upward, so it was traversing the sky in a slightly curved fashion. No distance estimates are possible.

An infrared camera faced upwards captured an object moving from screen left to right. The four screenshots show that it seems to change shape, but it is more likely rotating as it moves left to right in the direction pointed. The third screen shot seems the best or clearest to me. This appeared about 5 seconds after another object, previously posted at NUFORC, had crossed the screen in about 4 seconds while maintaining the same appearrance throughout.

Dear Mr. Davenport, My friend and I were taking a picture of the beautiful sunset. after we looked at the picture I said "whats that in the picture". we looked at the sky but the sun was in our eyes and couldn't really see anything. So I said take another picture and in your mind invite the alien's to show them selves to us and be with us. Then there was a bright blurry cylinder shape above the sun in the next picture. you could also see a plane coming down to land which is shaded by the sun. Same thing I said do it again and invite the aliens to show us themselves. and again bright blurry cylinder and you can also see the plan in this picture. each picture was taken about 60 seconds apart. The airport is to the north and about 20 km away.

An infrared camera captured a fast moving object as little more than a streak moving from screen top to bottom. It's not possible to say how it was shaped, but I imagine that it was cigar or blimp-like.

Saw in sky around the early evening hours. Made no sound and was not seen to Flightradar24 website. The object reflected light from the sun as it turned north. Object similar to ones described during the USS Nimitz Encounters in 2004.

Victoria Harbour, ON · Canada
I was taking aerial pictures with my drone of a cruise ship that was visiting out little town's harbour. It was a beautiful morning but there were storms approaching the area from the west, eminating from Georgian Bay and beyond. The sun had been up for a while and was quite dominant in the ESE sky. I was cognizant of the sun's location and was trying to avoid taking shots directly towards it. When photographing with my drone, I almost always use AEB mode (with 5 exposures each), I then merge them in lightroom to produce HDR images. I have at least 3 photos (15 exposures) showing a constellation of triangular shaped bright spots in the sky. They are stationary w/respect to the geography in the photo even though my drone was repostioned between each shot. For this reason I am ruling out optical artifacts and/or sensor noise. I have uploaded 2 of the merged images. These are highly compressed JPG images. The original exposures are all in RAW .dng format. You will see the triangular "lights" in the upper left portion of the photo and can use the gravel pit on the terain under it as a landmark.

An oval object moved right to left across an infrared camera screen. It's pretty bright, but was not visible to the naked eye. Unfortunately with this one, the video capture was put on a faulty USB, so the video capture is no longer available.

It was flying slowly; bigger than a plane; lower in height compared to how planes fly. Its shape was close to a plane’s shape but oval and didn’t have wings. My family members all saw the object. (video starts from a plane, moves to the object, then back to the plane for size and speed comparison)

An upward facing infra-red camera captured half of an object moving downward on the right side of the camera screen. I'm not sure if "oval" is the best descriptor, but it seems a little stout to call it "cigar" shaped.

I was outside looking up at the moon and saw two objects flying together at a high rate of speed going from north to south They were both round and looked alike, But did not fly at the same speed, more of zig pattern and not in a straight line There was a skimmer of light on each, Possibly the reflection of the moon No noise, no bright lights, just lucky to be Looking at the right spot at the right time Other people with me but they could not See them in the dark sky and they were Gone within 10 seconds

It had a blinking light as bright as lightening it was a disc shape and it was doing full 360° spins as if it were taking pictures of the whole perimeter, I got close enough to see it was in the same field as me just hovering and I have footage as well, I've never been so blown away my entire life, it was an amazing experience as well as the scariest experience all at once, completely unbelievable to see. I feel like it was a dream. It made the weirdest sound ever like a ringing but deep humming sound and when I got close enough the cows in the field all started moo-ing and it made me feel really off so I went back to the car..

An infrared camera pointed upward captured a luminous rod-shaped object moving from screen bottom to top. The camera was handheld but the object was fast enough that its appearance or apparent motion was not the result of camera motion. Its luminescense was similar to the like object of 28 June 2022 at 21-28 in almost the same part of the sky. The 28 June object briefly lost its luminescense to reveal an unusual structure as a rod with features. I imagine that this 5 June object is likely similar.

An upwardly pointed infrared camera captured a bright, longish object that moved quickly from screen top to bottom. It was visible in the camera view but not to the naked eye. The camera was handheld but the object moved so fast that it didn't affect the image.

We were looking at satellites, shooting stars, and stars in general, I saw a shooting star (i thought) so I pointed it out to my friend, he looked up and 2 seconds later it did a “U” / “V” turn while not losing speed, and then it went higher and disappeared immediately. This might be completely unrelated, but 30-40 min after, I saw a very bright star, pointed at it, when my friend looked up we both saw it dim up and disappear.

The object moved left to right for a half second in a seven second segment of madness. It’s similar to the online drawing of an object seen at Farnham Quebec, on 21 July 2017. That object was seen only from the front before it quickly departed, and was said to have windows. It was not portrayed from the side. The second shot is its tail, which was not portrayed in the Farnham case probably because not visible from the front. The object was only visible in infrared, not to the naked eye.

An infrared camera facing upwards captured an object resembling a mantaray. It was only visible for about a quarter of a second during about seven seconds of "madness" when a wind came up suddenly. Consequently, someone at work who has a pilot's license thought it might be a plastic bag, but that seems unlikely to me. Apart from a mantaray, it makes you think of Lockheed’s F-117 Nighthawk or Northrop’s B2 Spirit. It is similar to the illustration of an object seen at Farnham Quebec, on 21 July 2017. That object was seen only from the front before it quickly departed, and was said to have windows. It was not portrayed from the side. The following screen capture is its tail, which was not portrayed in the Farnham case because probably not visible. I'm sorry if this is the second submission of the same thing. I'm sure I sent this one along before, but I don't see my record of having done so.

An infrared camera pointed upwards captured an object moving from screen left to right. The camera was focused on infinity, so it is unlikely to be a bug near the camera, which would be out of focus to be this large and would likely show some bug features - but a bug can't be ruled out. It was moving in the direction pointed. There are two images to show its roughly half second flight path.

This was difficult to follow. In about half a second a bright object moved into the screen of an infrared camera facing upward from the lower left. It appeared to be headed out of the screen from the bottom but suddenly changed direction upward and appeared in full in the screen, but the shape was too ambiguous (to me) to figure out. It then split into two objects which quickly departed from the bottom left corner of the screen. It wasn't clear (to me) if the split objects recombined, or left in close proximity to each other. The whole thing was too bright and too quick. There was a wind, but this does not look or behave like wind-blown debris. Sorry - a lot of ambiguity.

An ojbect was captured on an infrared camera moving down and to the left on the screen. The protrusions from the top and the "front" were other stuff in the air, not part of the object. It was windy, but I don't think the object was just airborne debris, given the way it moved.

An infrared camera pointed upward captured an object moving diagonally from the left to the lower right through the camera screen. There was a wind, and it could be taken for a kind of helicopter seed but for the apparent change in shape, its speed and luminescence - plus, there just wasn't anything blowing around in the air. One of the screenshots shows a "trail" of sorts.
