I was outside the front door of my building, with my dog. The sky was clear and the stars were visible. I looked up and, I guess, to the south and saw three lights, larger than the visible stars. They were in a horizontal line. The middle of the three lights kept disappearing, as though it was hidden by the branches of the tree through which I could see the lights; however the branches were not moving as there was no wind. I kept changing position to make sure that the middle light was not being obscured by branches or clouds. I stayed outside, watching the lights, for about 10 minutes. The lights were still in formation, with the centre light disappearing and reappearing (intermittently, but not regularly), when I went back indoors.

I am not the owner of this JPEG picture. I was visiting a friend in Manchester and we went round to one of he's friends for a coffee. There were a few people there including the dad of my friends friend. Somehow the topic of conversation went onto the subject of our universe and my friend mentioned that i was into UFO's. Immediately, the dad of my friends friend stood up and said, "hey, i saw something weird in the sky on the way to work last week whilst crawling in traffic. I had my phone on the dashboard and i picked it up and took one pic of it. I looked at it for about 20-30 seconds and it just stood there. I have never seen anything like it. It was not a plane or a hot air balloon or a friggin helicopter. I dont know what it was but i thought it was weird and took a pic of it. Then the traffic started moving and i forgot about it and concentrated on driving." That is what he roughly said. I tried interrogating him but he was one of those live for today types who believes in nothing and has hardly any educational background, a working class van driver basically. He just kept going off the subject and didn't want to entertain me on my UFO thoughts. But from his mannerism and the enthusiasm in the way he described the event, it led me to believe he was not lying. And when he showed me the photo, i was gob smacked. Now, to get the photo, i had to go round his son's house the next day and he pulled it off his dads facebook page, where he uploaded it to. I say this because the original may be better quality but i cannot be certain, just laying down the facts for your scrutiny. But i'm sure the original i saw on the phone was a lot clearer and detailed, but that also could be because of a smaller phone screen. Anyways, hope this is a valid UFO, looking at it closely, i believe it is..…

At least four separate lights maybe five. Their movements made it hard to tell. Very strange

UK/England (offshore oil rig) · United Kingdom
I work on an offshore rig and was out on deck at night. I looked into the distance and saw an orange light, at first i dismissed it as a helicopter (although orange is an unusual light colour for them). The light vanished, so I thought it went behind a cloud. Seconds later, and much closer, a triangle formation of orange lights appeared, not moving, then in sequence 3 more evenly spaced triangles appeared before fading in the same order they appeared. I then shouted on someone to come and see, they never!! Then closer still, the same thing happened, this time with 5 formations, although this time I could see a faint light joining the formations together just under the bottom 2 lights, this went from the 1st set to the last set of lights in the formation. They then faded and I never saw anything else.

London (Buckinghamshire)(UK/England) · United Kingdom
I was walking towards my house with my headphones in and my coat hood up, when something in me told me to look up and take my headphones out. Amazingly I was facing a black triangle, hovering a few meters above some houses, regularly changing in shape and size. When I first saw it, it was roughly the size of half a football pitch, it was so terrifyingly large that it knocked the breath out of me. I rang my father and described what I was seeing, during this I started hysterically crying and laughing, because I totally could not believe what I was seeing. It started as an irregular triangle, with the tip pointing diagonally down towards the houses, it's surface was parallel to me so I was able to see a light in each corner, these pulsated between being as dim as stars and as bright as floodlights. Over the course of 30 minutes of standing at the end of the road watching it, it slowly moved up and down in the sky, sometimes dropping so low that it disappeared behind the houses. It also changed between irregular and equilateral, also changing in size from its largest being roughly 34m in length to its smallest - the length of a small car. I decided to continue on my way as I had already been there a good while, once I reached my house (15 minutes later) I looked back and it was still there, in total I watched it for 45 minutes. It made no noise, put out no other light except the three on its corners, and managed to remain completely stationary in the air. That, paired with the constant feeling of pressure on my ears, assures me that this was something other than a man-made object. I also noticed that no other aircraft passed over during the entire duration, over which is normally an incredibly busy air traffic route. I'm was still shaken for a few hours after this, from excitement and fear. But now I think about how lucky I was to see it, truly a humbling experience.

I saw a low flying triangular shape craft lights were in a delta shape one leading light and three on each underside of delta shape in straight line. It was totally silent and glided over about 100 metres above. The size was approximately 20 to 25m wing span. The lights were an orange/red colour with a slight haze and underneath the craft, or whatever it was. Phone is useless in dark as tried to take photo but no image. This is my first sighting of a UFO.

Walking threw the woods with my friend and dog. We spotted this strange white light in the sky. We watched it dart from side to side in then in the blink of an eye it was gone. We were both left speechless and bewildered as to what we just saw

11 minutes 8 seconds London fireworks show… We suspect that the two dark objects, seen in the video to be moving rapidly from left to right, could be pigeons. If that is what they are, they may have been startled by the fireworks. PD

Outside smokin a cigarette in the garden, next to an unlit car park and field area. Southwest England. Bright but DULL light next to a star, seemed to be slowly moving, didn't understand if it was actually moving or not but by the time I realised, the star it was next to was far from the original point. I ended up watching it for a while as it moved slowly, bits of dull light trailing off from the main light going the other way it was moving. It stayed moving in the same area then would slowly go back to being next to the first star area then move slowly again and spin and circle but the extra lights would only come off he main one when it was going in circles. The main dull light though would get dulled but kind of spark-glow, I don't know the words to describe it. When it would unglow I thought it was going behind a dark cloud but there are no clouds but I also don't know why the moon isn't out on this side of the house tonight as it's super low lately so there's no clouds, Turns out after what feels like forever, it's actually a really hard to focus on black moth like thing with a light at the point, but I selected triangle (for shape of craft) cause it's kind of like that but had the build of being bigger than I should of seen and it was terrifipying to realise and the shape was only visible occasionally and it was bigger than the main light entirely. Not boomerang shape, like the ones I tried to look for online to help with this. I'd say a moth but the type of body that is furry and it's just sat on your curtain chilling but almost letting its wings hang. Like a guitar pick too. The bottom end was actually the lights trailing off and not disappearing but just being at the bottom. I went inside and talked to housemate briefly who asked why I'd been outside so long, they said I'd been there about half an hour, I thought it was only cigarette length (they usually burn out after 5minutes), ran upstairs, switched off my lights and went under the curtains and watched the light thing for more. Probably unrelated but I stopped because the police turned up with torches and started shining them into the field from the car park and then into my face and I got really angry and showed my face at not wanting light pollution and by the time they left I couldn't see the huge cloud-light-glow anymore. I first went out around 18:15 cause I'd just come home from work. I put 1-3 for witnesses because there were two community support officers. I live near an army camp which is one of the biggest in the country and is also particularly famous for its tank museum (cannot be differentiated between several in the country so this is OK to list) Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

Walked out of my house to go to the Chinese round the corner. About 2 seconds later I look up. To my immediate right, and a little ahead, I saw a bright white light. As soon as I had looked at it, it sped away at unusual speed headed south southeast. I'm shocked!

I was out in my garden around 23:00pm looking at the stars, it was a clear night and a very mild temperature for November. But then, i noticed what i thought was a aeroplane quite high up. I'm not entirely sure of how high this object was but roughly about 400/500 feet in the air. Anyway i followed it for a bit but noticed this object i saw, its lights were changing from flashing red on one side of the object and permanent blue on the other side. Right through to orange/yellowish to just a white light. I knew this could not be a plane as its course was quite sporadic and not only that, I live on a flight path (so i see planes virtually every day). And it definitely was not a helicopter as I couldn't here the distinctive sound of the rotor blades. I watched this object for 9 mins and 23 seconds before it disappeared. I had possibly seen the same object a few weeks prior, but didn't take much notice. I suppose curiosity got the better of me.

Looked up when chopping wood in my garden and saw a bright blue light. I noticed that it was moving slowly from the north-east to the south-west. Watched it for over a minute before it 'spat-out' a pink/red light, which moved in the same direction at a slightly greater speed, before arcing upwards, and accelerating at quite an amazing speed into the distance. Both the blue and the pink/red light then simultaneously stopped shining, and saw nothing else after that. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I was in the kitchen, went for the tap toget some water and I looked right into the window and I glanced to the stars,as I do sometimes ,, It was at night,maybe one o' clock in the morning,, I saw a star like object moving down at some 45 degrees into the sky. it moved down wards for about 4 or 5 seconds , then it stopped.. and stayed there, 1 or 2 seconds later the star near by switched off the light,, basicly dissipated in front of my eyes,,, and the other star light remained in there for hours until I went to sleep. This was a clear UFO sighting, I was lucky now I wonder how many of these stars that we see in the sky are actually UFO disguised as stars.. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Looking up at sky, witnessed a light travelling very fast and erratically. Sky cloudy so object was below the clouds. Moon was visible through the clouds. Sighting lasted approximately a minute with light changing direction and height before it faded into the haze of the cloud cover.

I followed them into the bedroom (south facing) and they disappeared behind cloud and reappeared for a short time. Could they be Chinese lanterns? It would be good to know if anyone else saw them.

Last couple of nights have seen flashing light just over wooded area. But couldn't tell what it was. Thought it could possibly be a satellite. So when I went out with dogs for last walk went out to look in the same area to see if it was still there and if I could see it any clearer. As the sky is very clear tonight and the other evenings it had been overcast and/or misty. When I first looked there was nothing there at all. But as I continued to look an extremely large and slowly descending spaceship appeared. I could clearly see that there were lights on both circles (levels) red, white and blue. But as it got lower the red and blue lights went out and many of the white lights turned off. So even though I knew it was a massive ship it looked a lot smaller. It then moved off slowly into the distance. And there was no noise from it at all. At this point my dogs started barking and running around as though there was someone around. I became a little freaked and came in the house.

I was in my garden just putting out rubbish in my bin. I looked in the sky, and so 3 round red lights. These were spaced out but moving very erratically and seem to be zig zagging in between each other. Also moving up and down. They were moving at very high speed . They were not aircraft or drones. There was no noise to these things. I called my daughter to come and look they was very fast and seemed to play with each other also moving different directions and then going back to atriangle shape these were not planes I've never seen anything like them.
