Duck Key, FL
My husband and I were outside at 9:20 and observed 6 bright glowing orange lights moving very slowly and without any sound across the sky. The lights glowed orange but there was no flashing as you would expect with an airplane. They were initially in 2 triangle shaped patterns. Then one completely disappeared. Next the remaining lights began to move more quickly and 2 lights approached each other appearing as if they were touching. Then the lights were obscured by a tree. We ran out to the street to see around the tree but all of the lights had disappeared. We searched the sky for several minutes but did not see the lights. My husband was taking a video with his phone but when we tried to look at the video, nothing had been recorded. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Initially it appeared as though the helicopter was flying away from me and that would explain the light of the decreasing, but within seconds the light vanished. I watched for two minutes after and so and saw no more lights. I am a logical person and am hoping othe rsomeone saw this and there is an easy explanation. Military, I don't know? This appear to have been in the proximity east of I-75 and Fruitville Road. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Gulf of Mexico, FL
On 5/11/16, on a flight from Atlanta to Cancun, we were at cruising altitude possibly over the gulf of mexico when a large, chrome-colored, cigar-shaped object passed us going in the opposite direction. The object seemed very close (maybe 100 yards) and pass us horizontally and at the same altitude. Oddly, the object seemed to pass by very slowly, more slowly than you might expect to pass another flying object going in the opposite direction. It was clear that the entire object was metallic (chrome-colored) as it reflected against the bright sunlight and was emitting huge plumes of white "smoke" similar to an old train steam engine. From my seat, the object was visible for about 5-10 seconds. I noticed that there was no vertical wing, no windows, no markings, or any other indication that it was a plane, but I assumed it was a plane given the plumes of smoke coming out of its rear so I didn't give it much thought about it at the time. Note too that ! there was no indication from any other passengers (except my fiance who was seated at the window and was the one that alerted me to the object)or crew members that they saw anthing unusual. Later that day and the days to come, I became more and more bothered about what I saw and decided to do a Google search a few days later on "metallic UFO cancun" which resulted in images and videos of "cigar-shaped" UFOs that look very similar to the object that I saw. Unfortunately, I did not take any pictures of video of the incident, but will provide a rendering of what I saw.

I was driving on Military Trial, coming up to Okeechobee Road (north of), heading southbound. I wasn't paying too much attention but notice a small aircraft...To which I usually always look, being there is an Airport 2 miles away and Off the same road I was on.. Anyhow, I thought it seemed too small to be landing, which it was in the path for Commercial landing, but was not big enough to be one, and was too high up... Thought it very was strange, it didn't resemble any aircraft I have seen around, wasn't a helicopter, was smaller than some of the private planes I have seen, was similar to a cigar shape, but didn't get a long enough look to say... I live off Military too, so the small private jets and planes path is over my house, and I usually see one daily, sometimes more.. As I drove further along, I noticed it had stopped and as soon as it stopped, it seemed to have flashed sunlight off of it, and then it was gone, totally just disappeared! Nowhere in any direction.. I dropped my mouth, knowing I had just seen a UFO... All my life I have wanted to see one and it happened on a day I wouldn't expect and during the daytime! --- Also noted from another witness reported on here, the night before, was a blue orb reported in the same southern sky, not a few miles east of me... Wonder if it was the same??

At approximately 01:00, on the night of May 10, 2016, I was woken to a very low frequency humming/pulsing noise. I got up, went to the window, nothing. So I ran to my balcony for a better view of the sky. The only thing I can say about what I witnessed was that the night sky was red, BRIGHT night - the brightest I have ever seen. The moon was only about half full at this point, but I could not identify a noise source and noticed the pulsing almost seemed to move across me - as of it was something tangible. Seemed to be eminating from south of my location. This noise was almost intoxicating - I did not want to move. I walked inside and about thirty minutes had past, but where the time went I do not know. It felt like less than five minutes from when I woke up to coming back inside, but that was not the case. Upon entering my house my dog (she is a hearty boxer) started backing up very slowly and began a low growl. I walked up to her and as soon as I touched her she was herself again. I also have three cats that would not come out of my bedroom until days later. I woke up the next morning with what appeared to be one long hive stretching from my mid thigh all the way up to the back of my ribcage (right side) - I have never had 'hives' before, but I brushed it off - initially. It has been almost a complete seven days since and the one big hive has not budged - not even itchy. I can run my hands along it without even realizing I am doing so. This is the most frightening experience out of the whole sha-bang. No craft was visible to me and I have not heard the pulsing noise since that night. I did bring my phone outside with me and thought I hit 'record' bc I remember hitting the 'stop' button upon entering my house again, but no video was recorded - no sight, no sound, and no time stamps. Ever since hearing this I have been on a mission to find others who might've heard this, as well. My parents' live about two miles north of me and I asked them both if they had seen or heard anything odd that Tuesday night. Both said no though my father did state the sky looked different that night than any other. My father has been sailing the world for over forty years so for him to state this... It means a lot to me. If anyone else in south Fl heard this, please make yourselves known. Thank you.

Was walking the dog - skies are crystal clear blue, looked south toward MCO and saw a flying object glowing and sputtering - red, brilliant orange, then out. No pattern other than the color. No form, no shape. Headed west. Checked the flight tracker, the only thing I saw on the same course was a Cessna, about 2k feet up. This was either way higher or way smaller. Jet engine fire? Satellite falling back to earth slowly - uncontrolled? I've never seen anything like it in my whole life. I've seen aircraft reflect the strong Florida sun before, but this was not only much more brilliant, but stayed brilliant as it moved east to west of me. If it was a reflection, I'd have passed out of it's beam. It reminded me of the flame that the Space Shuttle SRB's emit - brilliant orange, only this wasn't as bright or as constant. Very bright, but sputtering.

I was walking my dogs on Sunday May 8, 2016, (Clear night with no clouds), when I saw a small flash in the sky just below a star. I initially thought it was a plane because of the way a plane’s lights blink when flying in the night sky. However, the flash did immediately occur again. I continued to gaze in the same direction when about 30 seconds later, I saw a light flash again in the “same spot”. I thought this was a bit strange. So I took out my iphone and began to video tape the area I saw this light. Unfortunately, the iphone camera isn’t the best, especially at night and the distance this thing was. The light was far away (I think) as you can see on the video. I filmed for about 4 minutes and then contemplated going back to my house to get a video camera. I continued to watch and it continued to blink every 30-40 seconds (an estimate) in the same spot. The light was definitely different from the light from the stars. I decided to film again with! the iphone and the same occurrence was seen. It was really strange. I was pretty excited. I decided to get home to drop the dogs off and to find my video camera. I found it, but no battery charge. I walked back outside to watch again, but I no longer saw the light. When I played the video for the first time, I didn’t even see the light on the camera, even though you can hear me stating “there it goes again”. I decided to slow the video down with imovie. In a dark room and watching the video in slomo, you can see the flash of light, but to my surprise, there were other lights that blinked on and then off right after the other one. Really weird. I have also zoomed in on the flash of light and it’s completed different from the light zoomed in on a star. It looks triangular. I can send the video, because I’m sure you have better software to zoom in, brighten, and slow the video down. If I had the software I would do this. I know this isn’t some amazing close up sighting, but it’s definitely odd.

Oviedo, FL
Normal night with friends, went to movies. Dropped off my friend at his house, then proceeded to go inside to hang out and talk for a little bit. Then after hearing his neighbors glass letting door open we look out of the window decedent his neighbor's in both houses to his sides, so that means two different houses and also multiple others in the street all looking into the sky to see all the houses in the street at one in the morning, covered in grows everywhere. That being weird enough, I decided it was time for me to get home and just go to sleep because I was a little bit freaked out. As I was driving home at around 1:30 AM, I felt somehow the need to just kind of look at the stars. When I looked up, I saw I do not know whether is a formation or a triangle, but it was three green dots in the triangle formation still above the area of where like a forest is. The triangle of green dots then went from a still position to going faster than I have ever seen anything move and then up and then gone. After that I sped home physically shaking, as I had goosebumps I was extremely scared the lights on the side of the street had turned off behind me by were my friends house was and I was in tears I was so shaken. I am now overwhelmed with the feeling of paranoia right now as I write this, I have taken sheets and covered my windows and locked my door and I'm really scared right now please someone just tell me what I should do

Cocoa, Florida. Friday May 6th 2016. Time 22.10 Looking south in my back yard I saw 3 bright orange circles at about 45degrees. They were in a triangular formation. One shot down to the southern horizon approximately to the ESE two others together headed due west and disappeared. By the time I had gone into the house to get a camera it was too late, no sign of anything.

Watching in the night sky that satellites passing up above 12 satellites satellites would take at least 2-3 minutes ago from Horizon to Horizon when all the sudden I noticed to compare the measurements of a satellite putting something up against it look like the tip of a pencil inside the object that I was observing that was other than the satellite had to be the size of a eraser of a pencil moving back to that size and it took at least 10 minutes to travel from Horizon to Horizon I was watching it with a pair of high-powered binoculars and could not get any kind of shakes out of it other than it looks like a bright star the only thing was it seemed to be in a very low orbit close to the Earth travel along the coastline of Texas the location where I'm at was at is at the foot of San Antonio on the Intercoastal Waterway around mile marker 492.

Orlando, FL
My mom and I were driving in East Orlando. We both saw a bright orange oval fireball in the Eastern sky. It was at 1:38 am on 5/6/16. It was too low to be a star. It looked like it was the size of a street lamp. It only lasted 2 to 3 minutes. When I could finally park to take a video, it was gone. It looked like a big orange star. However, it was too low and much larger.

Tamarac, FL
Extremely bright orange ball of light quickly ascending into sky, leaving a slight trail as it rose. Continued ascending for about 120 seconds, growing dimmer as it rose to about 40,000 ft (best guess based on other aircraft in vicinity.) Did not disappear completely until travelling behind extremely thick cloud cover. Made a very quiet humming sound

It was glowing bright red and traveling from east to west. I ran inside to gather to witnesses my mom and brother. When we three came out, it was no longer glowing bright red, but more like a far off red star, and this time it was traveling in the opposite direction--back east.

On May 6, 2016, at approximately 1:00 AM, my husband and I were sitting at a table in our driveway. I stood up to look around at all of the beautiful stars on this clear night. My husband was sitting facing the Northeastern sky. As I was looking around at all of the beautiful stars I looked to the Northeast and there it was! My husband and I saw it at the same time. It was a huge glowing orange triangle object coming up over the tree line. We both said, “What is that!” I took off to get my phone 15 ft. away and I heard my husband say, “It disappeared.” I said, “It figures when I want to take a picture.” Then, all of a sudden, it reappeared but it had changed its shape and color. Now it looked like a giant star that I see in the sky every night but it was moving slowly. It was now white and appeared to have 5 bright white dots connected with lighter white lines. I followed it for about 30 seconds as it moved slowly across the sky. Then it hovered in the distance for another 30 seconds as I shined my phone light towards it and then it disappeared. Very strange indeed.

At approximately 21:30 on 05-MAY-16, a red 'fireball' object was spotted travelling across the sky bearing approximately 130°. The size, altitude, speed, and distance from the observation point are unknown. The siting spanned a duration of approximately 30 seconds and was witnessed by two persons from the same perspective. There was no noise noticed from the object. The object flew out of perspective view being blocked by nearby structures and trees.

Bright orange fireball. Oval shape. Appeared to be traveling SW. Traveled slowly through the sky. It looked quite large compared to any aircraft or bright stars. There wasn't a long tail on it. There was no visible trail on the dark sky. At one point it turned to the east and got smaller, as it traveled away. Too many trees blocked my vision to the east.

We were driving west turning into our neighborhood when i had noticed a bright orangeish red light. It hovered for a minute before it began to slowly rise up. It looked as if it were on fire, hovering and it soon began to fade to a dull orange color and got smaller. It then looked as if it shot off into the sky.

Jacksonville, FL
Almost every night, a large orange orb in the sky that is located above Craven road off Sunbeam Road in Jacksonville, Florida. A planet does not move at will nor do stars while this orb does. I looked at it one night and thought to myself, if this thing is satanic, evil, it has to do what I say, as that is what the bible says. So, I looked at and “thought clearly”, “Move away from me if you are evil. “Here’s the weird thing; It did just that. It has two orbs below it that blink constantly. One blinks dark blue and light blue and the other blinks red, white and green. The red white and green orb has actually moved on its own, much like a drone, but there are no drones that look like it. This orb has a saucer shape but you can only see an outline as if it is covered in camouflage paint, it blends with the night sky. Again, there are no drones that are like this. It is the size of a very large helicopter but completely quiet, not even a whistle sound like a drone would make. They seem very curious about the people in the apartment complexes on Sunbeam Road for some reason as well. I have observed a figure with only an outline walking by one of the buildings that looked too skinny and small to be a human. Shaped like a grey but, with a smaller head, barely visible. These orbs seem to enjoy being near the hill located by Sunbeam Road across from the veterinarian hospital but they have moved location, sometimes sitting above the post office in front of the trees. There is also an isosceles Triangle located above Sunbeam Road that changes locations quite often and has an odd rounded shape at the bottom. I get a very creepy feeling when I look at it, almost like someone is staring at me. I have made the attempt to create a drone to fly towards the red, white and green orb, I call it Italy, but, I am stuck trying to figure out a good power source to fly that far. I also do not want it to destroy or take my drone nor assume it to be a hostile attack. It has flown directly over a plane one night, very slowly, showing its size.

Went to beach to try to catch some shooting stars in a pretty dark area. I noticed what looked like to be a bright star begin to move a little. At first I had to confirm with a friend that I was seeing what I was seeing. Over the course of an hour and a half we watched it zig zag around in the sky. Turning from green to blue to white. Possible it is still floating around off the east coast of Florida over the water. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
