driving from Nelson to Kimberley, BC, saw a fire in the mountains, tried to capture it but it was a dark pic so I put the flash on and the next day I was about to delete the two flash pics, too dark, thats when I notice to objects, parallel to each other, first below/left of the moon, second above/right the moon. Our car lost power, engine light came on and our focus changed to trying to make it home.

A bright disk moving downwards on the screen appeared for a quarter of a second. The infrared camera was facing almost completely upwards - perhaps 87 degrees or so.

Saw what looked like a star but it seemed to be flickering. I used my phone to zoom in on it and it appeared to flash green, red, blue and green. I don't know what it is but I have short video.

multiple explosions happening in space. Looked like intensely bright fireworks in a grouping.. continuous flashes lasting about 10 to 15 seconds… In the video I catch the last flash. Unfortunately it is a cell phone. I did take a long exposure shot of the area of sky it is the small section centre of the photo just above the tree line

We saw a cigar shaped crafted that was tanish in colour. My 86 year old mother saw it in sky as we were waiting to make a left hand turn onto Van Horne Ave. She asked me what it was and I looked and answered I think it was a plane. My mother said "It doesn't look like a plane to me". I looked again and said to my mother "I think it is descending". I could not see the wings or tail and figured maybe this was why I couldn't see them. I also noted that there was no trail behind it but that is not uncommon with planes so I didn't really think much of that at the time. The traffic light turned green and I proceeded to make my left hand turn and didn't think about it again till later that night when I was telling my husband about what we saw. It was during that talk with my husband that I realized that even if the plan was descending and might have been on a slight angle away from me that I would still be able to see the tail and or at least one of the wings. That's when the light went on and I realized what I saw was a UFO not a plane. I also noted that I didn't remember seeing it moving because I was to busy looking for wings and the tail. The next day I was out driving and saw another craft which was a plane and it was actually tilted a slight bit and I could clearly see the wings and the tail so I know what I saw on Wed was a UFO.

Motionless neon green craft in the north sky caught my eye when I went outside to video lightning activity far off to the west. There was no rain or thunder and it was calm. It was still for several minutes and slowly moved forward and stopped. After a couple of minutes, it reversed without turning around. Almost to where I first spotted it. It was silent and had flashing red and white lights. Suddenly the wind gusted and I got kind of spooked. I went inside to get more appropriate footwear, but when I returned, it had left. I was in my condo complex courtyard.

I stepped out at 9:15 on for my usual toke before bed. There was a storm blowing in and it was a little wind nothing too crazy but enough I think it would be hard for a drone at about 5000 ft st stay in one spot for a long period of time. Anyways the colour green caught my attention. I've never seen a green so bright in my life and it was blinking so it caught my attention. Too high to be a radio tower light and a plane can't just stay in one spot. Once I started recording the object it moved accord the sky so fast I couldn't keep up with it. Not only the it scared me as it got closer I could see two very very bright green disk and made such a sound I got scared because it sounded like a spacecraft as it flew by my house. Iv never heard a sound like this before and if I could compare it to anything it would be something from the Jetsons. This thing flew across my town in about 20 seconds. Then August 23 the next night, exact same time the green object was there, blinking in the exact same spot. I was blown away, wasn’t prepared for it, phone was dead. But once again when I started to look at it, it started to move. It moved across the sky and I watched this thing move side to side off into the distance and watched this object disappear into the distance to the point it looked like a start like this thing flew off into out space. I'm still in shock in what I saw. I hope I'm not wasting your time with the video quality but the sound that scared me and gave me the chills well I caught it. The sound that this made was unreal. Keep in mind this was at one point about 5000 feet above my neighbor's house then I watched it fly off into the distance until it looked like a star. Lol I started yelling jumping up and down just blown away. I'm a believer now. But one thing I did manage to really catch with the phone was the sound it made. In the video 30-35 seconds you can hear it. Especially with headphones in. Then right after I start to swear because of the noise it made as it flew over my house.

I live on the edge of lake Ontario, at the top of the Scarborough bluffs. The view from my balcony is approx 160 degrees, with nothing but sky. I know every flight ' route' landing at Pearson airport, and the Toronto Island airport. I can see 3 to 4 planes at equal distances to one another at the same altitude entering the descent into Pearson. I know that It takes about 3-4 full minutes for me to watch a plane come into sight from the east, and north, and lose sight of them as they travel west and south. At approximately 1:30 am, My huband and I watched a bright orange light appear. Out of nowhere. We did not see it come from any direction. It suddenly appeared, really bright orange. The first thing that made me notice it, was that it didn't belong there. Then, we noticed that it was completely stationary. It didn't move. I opened the balcony door to get my binoculars. I was afraid that if I took my eyes off of what I was actually looking at and grab the binoculars, it would go away. But it didn't. I saw it through binoculars. There was a constant glowing orange light above and below. In the middle was a thin darkish center. Imagine a hamburger. The dark area looking like a patty. It did not have any wings like a plane. After a couple of minutes, the light started to fade as if it was going backwards. Into the distance. Then about 5 seconds later, the same bright orange object reappeared about 45 degrees to the west. I looked at it again with the binoculars. Same thing again. Completely stationary, then faded quickly. We never saw it fly/ move. It just turned on a bright light in the dark, then after a couple of minutes, faded like turning down a dimmer switch. I know what I saw, and really wish that I could come up with a bs explanation that I could believe. I was 16 when Omni magazine came out. I had a subscription. I have had an interest in science and space most of my life. I am 60 years old. In my lifetime, I was there before man went to the moon. Before the International space station. Before we proved tachyons were faster than the speed of light, inventing the large Hadron collider, proving the existence of the higgs boson particle, amending the theory of 13 parallel universes to only 11. And, apparently black holes exist, and they are evrywhere. I know what I saw, and I can say with certainty , it was an unidentified aerial phenomena. I cannot tell you how happy I am that I found this website. Because, there is no way I will ever say what I saw out loud. Ever. To anyone. Even my husband who witnessed it, is in denial. He knows what he saw, and cannot explain it. He stopped talking, shut down and went to bed within minutes. There was no scale to judge distance, but the object's altitude was the same height as the commercial flights that cross my horizon. I take no medications, I have no mental illness. This is the first time I have ever reported anything, ever.

An upward facing infrared camera captured an object that moved into the screen from the mid-right and exited from the screen top. I selected "oval" as the shape, but the side of the object facing the upper right corner of the screen in the second of the three screen shots provided appears flat, whereas the opposite side appears rounded - a bit like a mushroom cap, perhaps.

My 9 year old daughter noticed it first. Then we all looked up and saw it. It was very high in the sky. We have videos from 2 different cell phones. The one I'm uploading zooms in on it. It was moving strangely. Erratic but controlled at same time. We thought maybe a drone or balloon but too big and the strange glow? The light surrounded it, almost like a shield for lack of a better term. Also the movement was so bizarre. The event lasted 5-6 minutes then it shot backwards and up and disappeared into the clouds.

Before we saw it my boyfriend said if aliens are real show us which we kind of laughed it off but as soon as we called my boyfriends sister and brother out it vanished, When my boyfriend first pointed it out it was just two dots fading into to each other but then slowly became 1. As we saw on the main page it was multiple dots but that's not what we saw a all, it became one straight line together, NUFORC: Starlink

The two rows of light looked to be very close, each row had little white balls of light that seemed to be also very near each other. They flew into the clouds at a 45 degree angle (not accurate, it’s an approximation). It was also at night, with a clear sky. Each row had approx 12-14 white light balls. This was observed by a family member whose English isn’t very good, so I am relaying it here. The sighting was near this address: 148 Rue Fleury O, Montréal, QC H3L 1T3

I was outside looking up to the sky on my friends balcony and saw a slow moving submarine/cylinder shaped object floating slowly in the sky with a light haze around it enough to distinguish its shape and movement. We watched it move in the south easterly direction and then just disappear.

An infrared camera facing upwards captued an object describable as a 'rod with features' entering from the screen top and exiting from the screen bottom in about a quarter second. The object resembles those of 28 June and 15 August, 2022, taken from the same camera. The camera was focused on infinity. The object here and the others referenced don't appear insectoid nor did they move like insects. It might be suggested that they are some kind of "seed," but they were not blowing around, they appeared to be in flight.

A 'rod with features' moved down the far left edge of the screen of an infrared camera facing upwards. The object went out of screen and, what is likely the same object, reentered the screen moving upwards 9 seconds later. By the time it was near exiting the screen top, the features began to look a little different. Perhaps it was spinning, so the perspective changed. The "rod" reminds me of the US Navy's well-known Gimbal video which has a central rod along with features that make it look like a gyroscope.

Using a pair of bushnell star Gazer I watch an followed a bright white light about a 4 magnitude crossed into my vision from SW bye S 25deg. It contimue north towards the Big Dipper at an extreme speed in an arc for about 90deg. as it was passing over the first star in the handle of the bigdipper another light passes about 15deg.south of the first light going the oppesite derection heading south.I follow the first light going north for another 45seconds until it was out of range.I turn my glass back too find the other light going south I got sight of it in about 10second an followed that light heading south in another arc for about 120deg. until it also went out of my range.It was a very clear night no moon an no clouds or fog a good night. This was not the first time I have watched these same lights and I know it wasn't the last Date is approximate. We note that the lights described are not inconsistent with typical satellites. However, we do not know what the witness saw. PD

An infrared camera pointing upward captured a sphere which came into view for about a quarter of a second, interesting because there was no detectable direction of flight - it just 'blinked' on and off.

For about half a second an infrared camera facing upward captured a rod-like object with features moving upscreen. It bears comparing to the objects of 28 June and 15 August.

In the images, the small sphere to the left is a star, possibly Vega. A small white object appears moving upwards (it may be a bug near the camera, I don’t know) and a sphere also rises from the bottom of the screen toward the right. Then a cylinder either shoots up, or lengthens upwards from a shorter “barrel” form. The bug continues upward, the sphere begins to sink, and the cylinder lengthens. The cylinder suddenly begins to separate and contract, but it appears to contract into the barrel shape; the barrel then abruptly exits along the same path and direction from which the cylinder emerged. The sphere rises and exits the screen to the left. It was quick.

An infrared camera pointed upward captured the image of a cigar-shaped object moving down-screen in about a quarter second. It wasn't as solid looking as I would have liked, but that may be a function of distance - I don't know.
