Went out on a late night walk, went to a hill overlooking downtown to admire the city and (mostly) the super moon. It’s hard to see stars because we’re in the inner city, and only handful standout. There were 3 stars in a triangle formation, and suddenly one broke off. It was moving very fast and flying irrationally moving in all directions, before stabilizing and flying horizontally. It was originally a very bright white and seemed to dim down before all of a sudden it flashed to black and vanished.

I saw it coming out of a cloud and had to fly a funny way in my direction, it was a kind of elongated pipe which was flying at an angle of say 30 degrees of inclination made a magnetic noise in a few pulses made a bizarre of drift descended from altitude and do a few spins and disappears the cloud has cut cleanly no drag effect cut with a knife

Was observing the western horizon shortly after sunset on a clear night, western horizon was still illuminated from previous sunset, but sun had completely set. An object as described above appeared and traveled easterly for approximately 6 seconds at which time it simply disappeared. Emidietly thereafter another object identical to the first one materialized in what seemed to be the exact entry point of the previous one, and continued on the same course blinking out also at the same position in the sky as the previous one. This exact pattern continued for 4 more objects, with the 7th and final object materializing slightly to the left and at lower elevation then the previous 6. At no time was there more than one visible in the sky at the same time. My first thoughts were potentially satellites reflecting the setting sunlight while passing through this light in their orbit trajectory. However, the size and diameter of the objects was much larger than a typical satellite, as well as the lower elevation of the objects. Using an aircraft as a comparison of elevation for the objects, I would guess approximately 35,000 feet, or cruising altitude of a jetliner.

About an hour after sunset, I observed a distant high altitude “satellite” due east of my position -moving south. It looked as bright as a distant planet. Suddenly it accelerated, making a downward swoop then quickly regained original altitude, continuing south. The object maintained a steady path for about 8 seconds. It paused briefly coming to a complete stop, then began a 45 degree descent. I assume it was no longer reflecting the sun as it grew dimmer, and disappeared. I have maritime experience as well as an aviation background. Definitely not a drone or typical aircraft. Thanks for your work.

Victoria, BC · Canada
Witnessed oval shaped light first appear as a shooting star from due south at 50 degrees above horizon heading north. Object changed direction abruptly and headed due east at high speed. As it faded and shot away to the east the object could still be seen as a faded light with a oval/tic tac shape. This light/object was followed by 36 more identical objects at intervals of 4-7 seconds apart. Each proceeding object abruptly changed direction and followed the path of each previous object. To my knowledge space debri, satellites, meteorites and rocket debris do not change direction.

5:00 AM - woke up, when to bathroom. Looked out window - saw a 'star'. Normally I don't see stars in the city, too much city lights. 5:00 - 5:30 - back in bed, but can't sleep. I have a head congestion - sinuses are all stuffy. 5:30 went to bathroom to blow nose, looked out window. The 'star' is still in the same location about looking about South or SSE. I can barley see the 'star' but it is there, in view, out of view, in view, out of view... not moving. Same size, not changing other than I can see it, then not see it... I think it is a shimmering star, but at 5:30 AM I should not be able to see a star in the city . About, say, 5:31, this star started pulsating - yellow, and orange - over and over and becoming fully in focus - like it was rotating. Size never changed. I thought can this be a weird angle on a plane, it kinda looked like that, but it was in the same position as a half a half hour ago. It was rotating/shimmering, but never moved in location. Then - a tiny second light appears - it was very small, just a bright yellow dot, ... like a meteorite, this little light shot right into or close by the big light. This was an interaction. The little light moved like 1-2 inches in my perception direct at the big pulsating light, it went right by it then disappeared. Then immediately, the big pulsating light moved west - a few feet from my perspective, - my view was then blocked my a neighbors roof. Size - the pulsating light stayed the same in size, circular, rotating/pulsating. When it moved, it moved like, the velocity of a plane, not crazy fast.

I walked out onto the back deck of my apartment to have a smoke. I always gaze at the stars when I’m outside at night. I happened to look up and to the NNW and noticed a large bright white light up in the night sky, that resembled a very bright star. I stared toward the above mentioned direction for about 30-40 seconds. All of a sudden, as if someone flicked a light switch, the light vanished. In a millisecond it was gone. This light “anomaly” made no sound that I heard, and I couldn’t make out how high in the sky it was. This was not a commercial airliner, as they have safety and flashing lights on during their flights. Not to mention, they are quite easy to hear flying overhead, especially at night. The light also didn’t move in any noticeable direction. It just hovered in the same spot in the sky until it vanished. I waited and watched in the same spot to see if it returned to view, but sadly it did not. Not too sure what I saw. This wasn’t a place, helicopter, satellite, or star. The weather tonight: 9°C Wind: ESE 3 km/h Temperature: 7.5°C Pressure: 101.8 kPa Dew point: 3.3°C Humidity: 75% Clear night sky

There was approximately 6 white lights moving at the same speed and same direction. I first thought it was aircrafts but when I went to the balcony to look at it better, I could see a disc shape, grey color. It was huge and was moving up in the air so smoothly.

Was flying low when looking over horizon on Thursday evening in Vancouver bc from Lions heat bridge. At first it look like a jient plan was going down while burning slow, with trail of fire. But then looked like a front of a jient Disk shoe that you could see the front half, but the very front of it was light up like burning,Brighter. But as it moved across sky, it didn't go down it just disappeared ,but slowly.so as the 🔥 fir gloominess. End

I went out for a cigarette and before I lit it I looked up and saw three lights in a perfect triangle the triangle in between the lights was darker than the normal night sky and it was rotating at a constant speed while maintaining the triangle shape. It was just below the big dipper so it stood out because I usually look at the stars when I'm outside. I looked down for a couple seconds to light my cigarette and when I looked back up it was gone.

My mother noticed the flashing lights outside and told us all to come look. This is not her first time saying she has seen UFO’s in our area. We all came outside and saw a stationary ball of light flashing green, red, and blue. It made no noise. We thought maybe it could be a satellite but it was not moving. We then set up the telescope. When we looked through the telescope, it seemed to be spinning and kept moving in and out of frame. It resembled a diamond because of the way the light was surrounding it. We believe it to be spinning because the light fluctuated like the wings of a bird. It stayed for quite awhile and we eventually went inside. After about an hour or longer it was gone. We had also called a few of our friends around town to look and they saw it as well. We suspect a twinkling star. PD

March 4, 2021 @ 06:05 Calgary, Alberta, Canada Standing at a bus stop near my residence, which is inner city, I looked up at the morning sky and the moon, then noticed a cylindrical set of lights moving NW to SE. The sky was clear on this morning, as far as I could tell, being able to easily see the moon and stars. At first I suspected the collection of lights to be a plane. It seemed to be moving oddly though, as I thought to myself it seems like it's coming down and even worried for a second that it was on a trajectory with my neighbourhood. In the next moment, I was puzzled at the shape of the object, the angle of it (orientation), and also the luminosity of it, seemingly surrounded with lights. It was then that I first considered I should take some pictures/video, and got my phone out. I am not the fastest draw in the west at taking pictures with my phone, and this was very early in the AM as I waited for my bus to go to work. But I collected 4-5 decent pics and one 40 sec video, plus another very short clip. The object continued on its course SE. It became dimmer as it moved away, and then my bus showed up. The object moved at about the speed of a plane, I would say, certainly not too fast, but a steady pace. The video I shot is shaky because of my trying to line it up and even zoom in; it is not the object dancing around. The object stayed on a fairly even course throughout. I listened for the sound of a plane, and could not be sure I heard it. Living in the city, there is a lot of ambient noise that sounds like a constant hum, especially early in the morning when there are not much car noises on the street. There was just no really obvious jet sounds.

My friend and I went to get coffee and returned to our motel when a man knocked on my window and said “You gotta see this, there are UFOs in the the sky.” My friend said “I believe him, let’s go see.” We walked to the back of the motel and looked at the sky. We saw at least 15 lights in a linear formation travelling North and then they disappeared. The man said the lights appeared just before 10 the first time where he counted about 18 lights. About an hour and a half later the lights appeared again when we were present. The man said there must of been about 50 lights but he lost count because they were going by so fast. I did some research about any UFO sightings in the area and I came across an article. I will attach a link on the article about a naked man who experienced the UFO sightings behind the motel 7 years prior on July 9th: https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.owensoundsuntimes.com/2013/07/09/naked-man-ufos-and-bears-reported-in-saugeen-shores/wcm/c7942578-a6e4-3d75-14c1-382aa2c24b2f/amp/

It’s a clear sky with the moon half full clear as day with many visible stars. I know it can not be a plane because one went by and I have stood here for 10 minutes. I saw a bigger flash of orange around the star so I thought it was but it dimmed down that’s how I noticed it. It’s moving side to side and up and down in a circular motion. It’s a bright light that I thought was a star at first but is moving leaving a small trail of light that fades away. I took an amazing pair of binoculars with my father out to see if I was right. You can see the moons forms with them. I was still and it moved out of my view with them. There is no way it’s a star, plan or satellite as it was not moving in one direction across the sky. I just checked again before submitting this and it’s moved to the left even more! This is crazy. Someone has to tell me they saw this too!

I was the passenger in a car. After seeing and looking up at the trail of an airplane fuel thing, my eye was caught by a quick flash to the left of the trail. This flash occured twice before I could concentrate on it, I moved around in my seat just to make sure it wasn't glare from the windshield, and it moved extremely abrubtly towards the fuel trail. I asked my dad if he could see it, and it flashed again a few times before moving what seemed like furher away but same elevation. He looked around and didn't see it fully, but did notice the last flash. The flashes were very much like that you would see if someone far away was turning a mirror at the sun and pointing it quickly at your eyes. It was up too high for it to be a reflective satellite dish, farming structures, radio/cell towers. There are no mountains or anything either. We continued up the road, a straight road, and I kept my eyes locked on it, and suddenly wuth the last flash it was gone. There was an airplane far off to tge right of my vision, and there was 100% absolutely something in the air watching it or following it or investigating the trail.

It was dark out and few clouds. A fast moving ball of light came from the south sky near the water then headed to the North. It was very bright Dark blue on the outside, white and then light blue in the centre. Moved extremely fast, so not a plane or helicopter. No sound. Raced up towards the North, came to a brief stop then disappeared.

Saturday February 7th 2021 My friend and I were on the beach and saw this beautiful ship on the horizon... It had red lights! The way the lights moved were like that old carnival ride “the gravatron” we could not believe our eyes!!! It must have been pretty big because it was on the right.... and to the left we could see the Toronto skyline ... We were at port Dalhousie beach. It was hovering... And the light patterns even changed!!! Up and down... faster then slower... The bottom of it lighting up was the most amazing part!!! Gorgeous sacred geometry!!! 😍😍😍 Neither of us had ever seen anything like it!!! Beautiful red lights and once in awhile green flashes would appear!!! The sky was clear and dark purple... but after about 20 minutes it just filled up with clouds and we couldn’t see anything... It was one of the most epic moments of our lives!!! I wish we could have gotten it on camera... but you know what? It felt really special to just enjoy the moment 🥰

I was in my hot tub and I was looking at the stars then I saw a flash, it was just a plane so I watched it fly for a bit but then I saw a green flash near a tree, I didn’t see it for 30 seconds. After these 30 seconds I saw it fly out from behind the tree and it was higher than the plane was. It continued to fly from where it and the plane were to where I first saw the plane at least three times faster than the plane did, it continued to go straight until it turned right and I couldn’t see it because my house blocked it. The second one. It’s now been around two minutes from when I lost sight of the first one and I saw another green flash. This green circle looked the same as the first one but it was farther away than the first one I saw, from there it went to where I saw the first one and then straight to where the first one turned but instead of turning it continued to go straight and I eventually lost it in the distance. I then double checked to see if I was seeing things by looking at other stars to see if they would start moving, but they didn’t.

I was recovering from a inguinal surgery 30 days post operative. I was still in a lot of pain. Medication consisted of 5 mg diazapam and 37.5 mg of tramacet 2 to.3 times per day. Conservative dose taken at 930 pm. This only allowed me some freedom from pain but I am conscious of the dangers of overuse of medication so was concentrating on keeping low dosages. At 322 am I was awakened by a movement in my bedroom. My wife was sleeping with our daughter across the hall , as she did not want to disturb me in my recovery and had been doing so since I was recovering from the surgery precisely one month prior. When I awoke I looked at my clock as I habitually do. I am often awakened between 3 and 4 am by what I assume is activity from the train yard. This night I was somewhat surprised to see what I thought was my wife at first at the door way to our room. The figure walked into the room though the door seemed to stay only open a crack as I always leave it. It was semi dark and hard to make out . As the figure moved around my room it first walked along side the bed (opposite side I was sleeping and opposite the window) , turned around and then walked toward the window ,. I struggled to say something ( What the F--K !!" was my thoughts but I was unable to speak) as I noticed it did not match my wife's appearance. My wife is small and petite but the outline was grossly thin and exaggerated limbs and hands and head in proportion to the body (though the head was smaller than typically depicted in popular culture the limbs looked incapable of supporting any weight, they appeared about 1” diameter) It appeared to be roughly the outline of a typical gray alien though in the dim light it appeared to be clothed in all black. I was deeply concerned and somewhat in fear. I struggled violently, but was unable to move it was like I was frozen stiff. As the figure reached the window it turned and looked at me. I could make out its left hand get raised. At this point I passed out very reminiscent of when the surgeon gave me anesthetic in my surgery. I could see my bedroom clock (which I keep across the room as I have read they can cause sleep disruptions) as the figure moved past it was still 322 am. I passed out unwillingly and quickly. I was attempting to fight and stay awake. I awoke again at 324 am and could see my bedroom curtains and blinds silhouetted by a very bright light from outside. I painfully got out of bed and limped to the window. I threw open the curtains and then turned the blinds and was amazed and confused by what I saw. There was an incredibly bright and purely clean white round object outside and slightly to the right and 5 feet above my window. The corona seemed to have some element of off white shades and perhaps a yellow tint as it radiated outward. Behavior of Object: Glowing white orb. Pulsated and grew and shrunk exponentially radiating an intense bright light. Grew from 3 ft to 8ft approximately in diameter. Repeatedly shrank and grew at a rate of about a full cycle every 10 seconds then would shrink again and repeat. I witnessed this from 324 to 327 or 328 am. I seemed to be hypnotized by it. The light did not disable my night vision as a light normally would. I was still able to see and discern objects around my back yard. This happened outside my second floor window and was approximately 5 to 10 feet above my window. I was also able to make out street lights nearby and discern objects in the train yard and see the lights from the bridge across the train yard. I was seriously confused and distraught by what I was seeing. It made no sense to me. I seemed to hear a voice in my head that was likely my own "this is not going away, you should go to sleep and forget about it". I listened to this advice and went to sleep deeply disturbed and feeling very confused and afraid. I remember thinking , "if you come back I must hurt you to protect my family, I will hurt you if you come back I will smash your skull" " I also thought "I must think angry and violent thoughts to keep these things away from my kids." No sound was heard from the craft/object. There was a sound of the movement when the figure moved about the bedroom. I could hear the feet on the floor kind of shuffling. The weather was fairly clear and somewhat misty with high humidity which is standard in the lower mainland area. I don't believe it was raining but we often have very low clouds and fog with light mist in the air. Very high humidity. I lost sight of the object as I closed my curtains in total fear and averted my gaze in confusion and morale degradation. I felt like I had just been humiliated or something?? Like I lost a fight or was too chicken to stand up for myself. I fell into a deep sleep for the rest of the morning. I slept much later than usual. When I awoke I thought about what I saw immediately. I have no doubt I was not dreaming. None. I asked my wife somewhat tentatively if she went into our room and was by the window. She said absolutely not. I asked her several times. She was annoyed by my questions. I told her of this a few weeks later. She believes it was an angel or spiritual being. She is a very practicing Catholic though I am quite moderate. As a side note she is related to the actual Catholic monsignor from her province in the Philippines who is actually a documented and appointed exorcist to the church in her home province. He baptized me when we married in the Philippines . I only bring these secondary points up to be thorough and hope this does not confuse the incident in question. I still wake up at night and think as I get out of bed " If you are in my home I will attack and hurt you." I often say it out loud as I am too afraid to leave my bed to urinate. Nearly six months has passed since the incident. I still wake up and prepare myself for violence often though nothing has happened since that I am aware of. I have been speaking to 2 counselors and have told approximately 5 people of my experience. No one has expressed much interest except my cousin who is a UFO buff though has never personally witnessed one. My ptsd counselor says he has heard multiple reports from clients. He also works with military personnel and says these reports are more common than most people understand. My daughter who is handicapped and non verbal speaks with a hand held device. She frequently comes to my room at night since the experience and closes my curtains and blinds. She is quite obsessive with this and never did this prior to the event. This has continued for 5 months. She also expresses concern to her mom and frequently states with her device "Dad sad, Dad tired, Dad sleep 3). This is also new speech pattern since the incident. She is 12 but has the intellect of a 4 to 5 year old but is highly observant and thoughtful as well as overly empathetic. She seems to not recall or be willing to communicate with me about the night 2 years later. I believe what I saw was not a hallucination or a dream. 5 months june 19 2021 later I awoke with a triangle shaped piece of flesh missing from my ankle and extreme numbness in my foot for days afterwards. My wife said I never left our room she was sleeping on thr couch. I slept 16 hours and had a bad headache. Quite painful wound in a very unique and hard to describe. It seemed to buzz while using my electric car for days afterwards. Like my foot was asleep tingling but painful. I have photos of the flesh wound. I sold my home shortly afterwards and moved 4 km away. My neighbors claim to have never noticed anything in the evening then or since when I asked them if they ever saw lights or aircraft in the evening. Though I still worry a bit I do not believe I have been visited since.

Sharing this strange sighting I came across in the early morning of Thursday January 8th, 2021 @ 1:40am eastern time, just north east of Toronto/Scarborough Canada. Was using an iPhone 11 Pro - 4k/60fps to record this. To set the scene; The first 1minute and 40seconds is the original video shot from my iPhone 11 Pro, while standing out on my balcony earlier this morning. The "star" focal point if you will, is what drew my attention to begin with. I noticed it was flickering more prominent to my naked eye than usual, so I stepped out onto my balcony and decided to start filming out of curiosity. Within 25-28 seconds in I notice a second light source, orb like shape, that had appeared. However this second light source seems to be demonstrating some movement. It begins to dart around erratically. 1 minute 42seconds begins the recording of my laptop screen where I had uploaded the original iPhone video for better viewing/ a more zoomed in view. This is where I point out the second light source with my finger and try to follow it around on my laptop screen a bit. The temperature was around -9 degrees celsius (negative 9 degrees celsius) which makes me think it was too cold to be a bug. I was recording while out on my balcony, therefore I don't think is was any lens flare either (was not recording between glass). The sky was pretty clear for the most part as you can clearly depict the focal star in view, therefore I do not believe it was a laser either? Maybe a drone? Satellite? The movements are quite peculiar.
