San Cristobal de las Casas, CHIAPAS · Mexico
I was walking down Guadalupe Victoria St. Heading west, from the central plaza area. Looking to my left, I glanced at a radio tower decorated with many rows of vertical colored lights for X-mas. Then, a brightly glowing amber object caught my eye. It seemed to be stationary. It was too big and oddly shaped to be a star. It was too slow to be a plane and too close to be a helicopter, because there was no sound. I realized that it appeared stationary, because it was slowly moving the ssme direction I was (west).I stopped walking and realized it was moving in relation to some power cables in front of me. The entire object glowed amber, but bright street lights prevented me from verifying the exact shape. The gendral shape of a diamond or an oval - but from top to bottom, not side to side. After about 2 minutes, it looked similar to a bright star, except for its bright amber glow. By then, it had floared, or drifted closer to the mountains and street lights further down the street blacked out its image. It was at a 15 degree angle in front of me when it became no longer visible. There was no fireworks show tonight as there was 10 days before, nor any exploding bottle rockets ( which locals claim are chur h related). The bottle rockets don't stay aglow. They only explode. The object was a glowing object, not a mass of sparks. It maintained a uniform shape till it headed due west, beyond view.

Cancun, QUINTANA · Mexico
Hello Me and my wife went on vacation to Cancun and we were sitting in our balcony with ocean view saw a light in distance. Took the video and at first it was sitting at one place with yellow and orange globe. At one point it went to small and got bigger again. Later it started moving with blinking light.

Monterrey, NUEVO LE · Mexico
Saw from a balcony with a south-east view. 4 lights on the clear sky, moving. Too fast to be planes, also too low. Changing colors from blue to red to white. A few seconds after we started recording, the lights started to scatter, moving at different speeds Biggest, static white light it's a radio antena located on a mountain at around 1800 meters high, and 9 miles away from the balcony we recorded from, so the moving lights were closer than that. It was right above a big city, we looked up for drone shows and none came up for the area, but lights moved way too fast and way to high to be drones for a drone show, they were also too big.

El Higo, VERACRUZ · Mexico
Translated from original report in Spanish: Se avistaron Una serie de órbitas de luz (6 destellos) cruzaron a través del cielo nocturno, desde un horizonte hasta el otro. Lo más cercano a como lo podría describir es que se veía como cuando en las grabaciones aceleradas del planeta de ve registra el movimiento de las estrellas como líneas de luz que cruzan el cielo. En cuanto pasó dicho acontecimiento, se fue la luz en el poblado y algunos motores se descompusieron.

A strange light was moving back and forth in the sky. I captured it moving on film. While not on film, it eventually went from bobbing to moving in a straight path overhead. As it passed I saw the UAP had three lights in front. The three lights were only visible when it was going forward. I couldn’t see the shape of the object just the lights.

Mahahual, QUINTANA · Mexico
The first two objects were seen at 7:30am while drinking my morning coffee on my oceanfront patio which sits approx 15 feet from shoreline of the Caribbean facing South-east. The objects were flying at approx altitude of 100 feet, one in front of the other along the same trajectory. I note that I did not see the second object until the first had entered the water. I also note that each each occurance was strangely similar,. what I mean is that as soon as i/we saw the objects, the objects all did the exact same thing. immediately, within 1 or so seconds of noticing each object, the object stopped without normal physics of stopping on object in flight, meaning these objects went from an approx speed of 50-70 mph to 0/deadstop without any known propulsion lift or horizontal or vertical lift or decline. in addition, the 3rd object, seen hours later at approx 6:08pm tge same day, flying at altitude of 5-6 feet above sea level showed no signs water movement from thrust or propulsion both when in flight, nor when stopping without slowing. All 4 hit the water, and all four dropped at an impossible trajectory, which was from full speed forward, then dropped straightdown in the water, with no angled splash. the 3rd and 4th objects were much closer to us both when seen and when they splashed. estimated distance of the slash was 100 meters due east from my location. This is where it gets weird. I state that there was a 4th object, however I never saw the object. I was still processing what I saw with the 3rd, when in the exact same location as the 3rd splash, a second splash occurred. This is important, I have a photographic memory, the characteristics of the splash were exactly the same as the 3rd objects splash, in exactly the same location. When both the 3rd and 4th splashes occurred, there was a kaplunk sound heard., which seems to support the flat rectangular object falling straightdown., as a normal agled decent would have more of a splash sound. There were no signs of smoke or heat dissipation with any of the objects entering the water. I note that the 3rd and 4th splashes seemed slightly off cue. The same goes for the splashes as well. What I mean by this is that both of these splashes looked fake,. If you have ever seen a slow motion video of an object with equal sides hitting the water in a perfect angle with all sidesvat similar level, the splash it makes is distinctively perfect, although this is onlybtrue if the water in question is perfectly still. I saw this in an ocean. While it was a calm day, there were still small waves and the probability that the 3rd and 4th object could both fall in the exact same place, make the exact same sound, and the exact same splash pattern, on an ocean surface which is completely random. I havevthoughtbabout this and have come to the decision that I only saw 3 objects, and the 4th easban error which was not meant to occur. It seems probable that these objects were projections, and not physically there.nThis is the only plausable explanation of what I saw. It explains the false sounds, splashes, impossible flight characteristics, and lack of thrust, HEAT, or propulsion. Indid not bother to talk much about the objects, as indo not deem that as important. To this observer, what I saw was a projection technology farbadvanced than anything I havevseen.nI am well versed in tech, projection, and in flight. When thinking about everything I saw, If I had a projector which could projectbav3d like image onto my 3d reality, a projector would be able tonstop , fly at incredible speeds, and would explain the off cue splashes and sounds. I read about the holographic theory and when I heard it, it immediately madevsince to me, but I can not for the life of me explain why. Please send this to someone much smarter than I. we know what we saw, it was not a flare, or anything man made. I have yet to scuba out to the location as I have no one to accompany me, however I know of all 4bsplash locations.. It is also against anybreasonable odds that the both of us walked out on the patio within 10 seconds of each event, that we both looked at the objects without discussing it, at the same time, and webdid this again 11 hours later, again with the same odds. For that to occur twice in one day, 11 hours apart, with no other time spent on the patio or looking to the sea that day. And last that immediately when our eyes saw each object, that each object stopped and dropped immediately in the water. The only plausible explanation for this would be that these objects are designed to disappear in the water when seen by man possibly to rest our reaction time, reporting abilities, notification/communication capabilities from this location to applicable government defense agencies etc. We have also whiteness 4 other events here in Mahahual over the last 6 years which defy the laws of physics, including a meteor that changed direction witnessed by several people, 2 meteors that hit water, and something I have seen on several occasions that I do not know if I can describe. Something appears to be going on here. I have no idea why I moved here as well. One day, I left my national company I owned in the US and ended up here. Cant explain why, just know I needed to be here. When checking the boxes below, it reminded me that the birds were spooked by the objects. We both noticed many different birds flying away from the objects trajectory prior to seeing the objects.

Tecate ?, BAJA CAL · Mexico
I'm from Oregon, I'm retired and I live in Rosarito, Baja California, which is about 20 minutes south by car from Tijuana. Went out on my front porch at about 9:38 / 9:40-ish saw two lights in the sky over towards the east / north-east. They were / are dancing pretty good, (it's still on-going as I write this report at 10:15 pm). At first I thought it might be my eyes, I know there is a phenomena where your eye can deceive you into thinking something is moving when it's not. But I was soon disabused of that notion, lol. The light on the right was dancing / moving around far too much and changing it's brightness levels. Looked like it was trying to keep the same position but was failing. I also used the telephone line across the street as a reference level and both lights were changing quite a bit compared to it. Also, I looked at some obvious stars and my eye was not deceiving me, i.e. they just sat there in the same position. I looked back over at the UFO's and they both were moving quite a bit. Then 100% confirmation - a small light dropped out of the big light on the right and went towards the ground. A little later another did the same. If that was not enough then a small light came up from the ground and it looked like it went into the big light on the right. Then the 'slam dunk' - a small light came up super fast from below and shot off into the sky at about a 50 degree angle, towards the south / (my right). Not sure how far away from me they are. 10 miles ? I think over towards Tecate. Not sure but I think on the Mexican side of the border. I just checked right now at 10:22 pm, they're still out there dancing around. I'll be interested to see if there are any there reports of this. I couldn't get any pictures, the camera in my phone was not picking it up. Oh, last thing, the local dogs were not doing their usual barking, they were howling.

Cancun, QUINTANA · Mexico
Romantic walk with my wife on our last night at our resort. I often point out Orion as I follow astronomy. Walking over the walk bridge, turned right on the walking path, I looked up and saw what I thought was 1 x satellite. Pointed it to my wife who couldn't see it. Oddly enough the dot seemed slow and accelerated and to my surprise curved and dissappeared. I stopped and froze… my wife said and I quote "sorry I didn't see your satellite, let it go and come walk". I stood there stuned and looked at her and said… I don't know how to explain but I saw something that curved, it was not a satellite. I was still looking up trying to relocate and she joined me looking up. We saw 2 dots (size like one of the Orion stars) appearing moving different directions not simultaneously then disappeared. My wife was calm but I was so excited I couldn't stand still. I was hoping to see people near us but no luck. Our cells were in the room charging so I asked people coming out of the bridge for the time, 9:47 PM was given, I deleted 3 mins as it was my expectation of the time between my sighting and asking the time. I didn't sleep all night and watched several times the sky but nothing.

San Miguel de Cozumel, QUINTANA · Mexico
At 7:54pm EST a group of 6 of us were having dinner at Hemingways in Cozumel Mexico. An extremely bright light appeared in the sky over Playa Del Carmen and began approaching Cozumel very quickly. A cloud formation was hovering in front of the UFO the entire time. As the object approached directly overhead, it became clear it had an orbital/spherical field. The object hovered overhead for roughly 5 seconds before speeding off and vanished within seconds. Prior to departure the objects' energy shifted from a horizontal pattern to vertical energy field. There was zero sound and zero flash of light as the object vanished. My video is very quality and ~ 1:50 in length. I am having trouble uploading to the site.

Oaxaca, OAXACA · Mexico
I was taking a photo after dusk in Oaxaca of the moon and a planet above it. When I first looked at the digital image I noticed two disk shaped lights to the right of the moon- planet combo—that was all I saw when I took the shot. iPhone 12 Pro. No touch up or alteration of this image has occurred nor is permitted by transfer now. Please let me know what the 2 lights probably are? I never saw the objects except for the photo. Please advise. Thanks.

Cancun, QUINTANA · Mexico
On September 7 February 7 approximately 10 PM my wife and I witnessed a round ball traveling along the hotel row coast in Cancun. It was traveling at a high speed against the wind. The wind was real heavy that day as well. It was faster than anything we think is possible at that speed. Once it got a little ways down from where we were, it just disappeared. The UFO looked about 10 to 20 feet wide maybe and And metallic with no markings. No lights no nothing. It was also silent we didn’t hear a thing as it went by. It also happened so quick and we were so mesmerized that we were not able to take a photo

A large slow moving comet like object, long but with dark shadowy structure on the leading edge and throughout the forward area. Moved in a constant horizontal plane- not falling. I have photos. Traveling east to west.

This video was filmed by Ivan Escarcega on 10/27/28 at 7:22 pm. At first, object appears to be a comet, but the people in the video keep thinking it might be a plane. That is until the object drops its tail and appears to travel up and away. Here is the Facebook link where he live broadcast: https://www.facebook.com/100003185094709/videos/673115187571841/ The footage is incredible! Thank you, Kim Guerrero

Tijuana, BAJA CAL · Mexico
Myself and another soldier were monitoring the Mexico border on and near the top of Otay mountain and I was pointing out locations in Tijuana when a bright light which was idle a moment before appeared to start dropping suddenly in the shape of a bright propulsion like crescent. The color was a extremely radiant blue or aqua. We thought it may have been a meteor till it banked roughly 45 degrees away from us making the crescent shape turn from us and flatten out parallel to the ground, the color spectrum was blue then took on hints of purple then green. We watched the crescent energy like wave undergo the sharp banking move very clearly with a radiance of light before it disappeared entirely. We watched for over an hour and didn’t see it reoccur. It was a still quiet night and we heard no noise but we can clearly hear the commercial planes taking off from the Tijuana airport which is located behind the sighting location and further away at any other time. The size of the light was also baffling the arc was easily the width of 2-3 buildings at the distance we seen it and the length of the furthest center point was easily the same distance. Kinda resembled an energy blade from the video game Halo but the point (pointing opposite the direction of movement) only being as long as the crescent was wide.

Cocoyoc, MORELOS · Mexico
Between 1045pm and 11pm August 1st, 2022 Cocoyoc, Morelos, MEXICO. One circular light with cloud shape formation around the light was observed going at a high rate of speed traveling from the South heading North. No sound was detected during or after the object passed bye, steady glow with zero pulsating light. Lost visibility of the object due to a large wall at HOTEL HACIENDA COCOYOC in Morelos Mexico blocking continued sight of object. One witness “myself” was unable to grab the attention of spouse in time to witness due to the high rate of speed the object was traveling in and a large wall being in the way of continued viewing of the object. Unable to clearly identify the true color of the light due to a hazy cloud like formation surrounding the object. Had a visual of the object for approximately 5-7 seconds until the object had passed a large wall blocking any further observation. Unable to determine the high rate of speed the object was traveling due to limited time of visualization. An airplane was seen shortly afterwards going the opposite direction at a much slower speed with obvious sounds of a plane and the normal blinking red light. No cloud coverage at the time. The object was not a falling star due to the continued parallel flight pattern of the object and the unexplainable color of the light. A hazy white or even light green hue is the best way for me to describe the color of the object. The continued height in the air, speed while the object was traveling helped to rule out the possibility of a falling star or hot air balloon. No alcohol or drugs were used before, during or after the object was sighted.

I was taking my BeReal while on vacation in Mexico, and I never noticed the UFO in the background until after I got home. At first glance it looks like a cloud, but when you look closer, you can tell it’s not a cloud. It looks like a disk with a bunch of small, circular lights lining the outside of it. There are three smaller circles of light inside. It is a perfect circle. There was only one object just floating in the sky, and it didn’t make any noise. There were no clouds in the sky.

We were at the top of Garza Blanca hotel taking a picture of the scenery of the hotel from the rooftop.

Tulum, YUCATÁN · Mexico
Around 9:20 pm in Tulum, Mexico, my wife and I were in chairs on the beach, looking at the sky. Cloudless night. An object caught both of our attention. I said something like “look, a satellite.” It was a small dot of light, like a star, moving steadily across the sky at a slow pace, in a perfectly straight line. Consistent pace. Then, suddenly, it stopped completely still for less than a second. Then, it dramatically changed direction and also changed speed. It went sort of perpendicular to its original direction for a couple of seconds, at a much faster pace than its original speed. Then it completely disappeared from view, very suddenly. My wife and I both saw these exact same details. Neither of us could explain what we had just seen. It was unlike anything we had ever observed before. The entire event took about 10 seconds. We didn’t have our phones so we don’t know exactly what time it occurred. About 10-15 minutes later we found a clock, so we estimate the sighting around 9:20 pm. We noted where in the sky we saw this. We used an app to understand what star it occurred near. Near the constellation “bootes” and specifically near the star “izar.” The object was too far away to see any details. It looked just like a tiny moving dot of light, or like a star that was moving. No flashing light, no pulsing, no beams of light. No trail behind it. No sounds. Just a steady pinprick of light.

Cancun, QUINTANA · Mexico
On our vacation in Mexico, my fiancé and I were sitting on the beach at approximately 10:30 PM on April 19th. We were laying back on a blanket, and looking at the stars and listening to the waves. I noticed a star appear in the sky, and see it shoot out to the east, out towards the ocean. I quickly tap my fiancé and tell her to look at the shooting star. We are both watching the star as it quickly stops, spins once, and zips to the south. Me and my fiancé get up from the blanket, and follow the star as it shoots back to the east, spins twice more and disappears. All this happened in a span of 6-7 seconds. We go back to lay on the blanket, keeping our eyes to the sky trying to spot it again, from the east we see another light the size of a star move in a floating pattern to the north, and then shoots west over the hotels and disappears. This spanned a total of about 3-4 seconds. We stayed out for another 30 minutes trying to spot it or something like it, but we didn’t see anything else and went back inside.

Saw while on a cruise ship. A light in the sky far away was moving erratically… slow then fast then still… moving up, down then to the left for a little then quickly change direction. We saw it for about 15 min doing this. Then we saw a separate light that was blinking moving in the same way but just saw that for about 5 minutes. I’ve never seen anything move like that in the sky before.
