Walker, MI
Walking out of a movie theatre when me and another witness saw a bright yellow/green stationary blinking light in the sky that in a matter of seconds it shot across the sky and disappeared. It was not a meteorite, satellite, or a plane. There was no sound. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Elephant Butte, NM
We were taking night photos of the stars with a 50mm lens on a Canon EOS Rebel T2i by laying the camera lens up and setting it to take long exposure shots. In one photo we caught a small unknown image. The stars all show up as single dots, but there is one very bright light with a tail that is in a curved, non-uniform line. We did not view with our eyes, we discovered the image after we looked at the photo the next morning.

I saw an oval orange object in front of some storm clouds. I thought it was an airplane's lights reflecting on the clouds, but it wasn't blinking and had a defined edge. It was a steady orange color, as if lit from inside. It then became covered by the clouds. I could still see its light behind the clouds for a few more seconds. From the exact spot in my yard where I saw it, there are no streetlights or anything else in the line of sight. I wondered if it could have been ball lightning, but it was stationary.

Vance, AL
Very noticeable light seen over Vance/Mccalla area. Red/orange in color. Shifted brightness not periodically. Disappeared twice, first time for about 40 seconds, second time for about 10 min. When fading out it appeared more red. When viewing craft I saw multiple aircraft (with obvious lighting such as one white light and flashing red and green lights) that helped with judging distance. Craft seemed to be hovering at 5000 feet. Sometimes appearing to be chevron shaped with one smaller ball above it or at times just one ball. Probable sighting of Mars, we susptect. PD

Vancouver, WA
Got poor video of light in southwestern sky approximately over Vancouver wa. Light was extremely red, then would move alitlle and change colors to a light blue then to red. Solid light for a while then it would blink. Stayed above ground in location like a hover, thestarted to move downward towards the ground pretty fast. Then it disappeared.

Ocala, FL
While sitting on the back porch looking at the night sky I noticed a very bright white round object In the sky. It wasn’t high enough to be a star or planet. I intently studied its position in the sky and it remained stationary. After a few minutes, the light quickly became small and disappeared from sight only to appear again about 2 minutes later in the same location. It did that a few mores times and then quickly disappeared for good. I took pictures and they show a round circular object that had an outside ring with a circular object inside of it. The photo also showed round white orbs in the lower corner which I don’t recall even seeing at the time. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) You are right about it being Venus. I took a picture tonight of Venus in western sky and it had the same ring affect in picture. Thank You for your explanation. ((name deleted)) ((END ADDENDUM))

Mercer Island, WA
At Luther Burbank park having a night swim, observed what we thought was a satellite traveling very quickly across the night sky. It suddenly stopped, moved to an almost infinity pattern and then a huge flash of light like 10x of a normal stars brightness and was gone. Not more than 30 seconds later I observed another UFO traveling West, but this was more of an erratic movement than the previous UFO. It stopped suddenly, seemed to move up and down and flashed even brighter than the previous one and was gone from the naked eye. My boyfriend and I were screaming, “What did we just see?“ over and over again. We got quite. 10 minutes later we spot ANOTHER object in the sky moving at high distance, stopped between two stars and seemed to be moving up and down, almost like a ping pong ball and then just stop. It stopped moving for 15 minutes and then would very slightly look like it was falling down and catch itself and move in the same star position as before! Very Very active over on Mercer Island this early morning. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

While traveling south on interstate 17 at mile marker 252 I saw a double red light float over the interstate. The object was not much higher than the power lines. It was traveling west towards Prescott, AZ. I did not hear any sound.

Barrington, RI
At 3AM on Fathers Day of 2018 myself and my friend witnessed a star-shaped UFO travel across the sky over us, after we both declared out loud we wanted to see a UFO. We both witnessed this star shaped object at the same time, moving faster than a Satellite but not as fast as a comet or shooting star. When we noticed it, I spoke to it saying "Show us something" and at that point it began to change colors as it moved, but left no trail. The other witness at that exact moment saw a white flash in the sky, as well.

They looked like horizontal lines yet it is like they expanded and flashed out to where ever they floated. They first appeared to be up near a power line hight then up by the treetops just about 30yds from us. Then they proceeded to go up higher and then came back down and when just across the street near my neighbor's house close to his bedroom window at the side of his house then back in his orchard. His property is about 2 acre the orchard being directly around and behind his home. Then the lights were back up in the sky just across the street. Then the length and depth of the lights grew longer or flashed out further. The lights flashed to the right and to the left at times was just in the sky shining out toward, I don't know what. When I was in my car at the first of the year they can near to the front of my car, the side of the car and the back of the car flashing light toward me in the car. Tonight it was flashed toward my grandson and I. I just had to know if others ! have seen the same thing before. I would not see the lights moving as much as just appearing and disappearing and reappearing somewhere else. Always the lights seemed to be blinks of fireflies but I knew they were not and they where a line though flashed out. In the beginning, this year when it happened it was as if someone were taking pictures. Then tonight it was if that was what was happening.

Last night i was on my phone, when it started acting up. When i went exit a page it would a slurping-like noise, In general it was slower.after this i look out my window i see a object flashing white lights about 10 or 20 feet above the treetops (I think). I didnt go and investigate as it was late and I didnt want to wake anyone. It is now the morning i have been hearing planes outside. If it was not a ufo it could have been flying out of Selfridge which is a nearby military base.

Several stay in one place for hours. When it is daylight they all disappear. This happens between 11:00 PM and 4:00 AM all the time.

Fayetteville, AR
That point I realized that there wasn't a sound being produced and it was headed towards the ground faster than a jet could travel or any man made craft for that matter. Best way to describe it was a green fireball with greenish-whiteish tail/trail behind it. Only lasted for a few seconds at the most. I even waited for a crash or explosion sound to rule out any crash that could've happened.

Columbia, MO
We were sitting in front of Noodles and Company at Trimble and Conley Roads enjoying an ice cream when I noticed something very low in the sky approaching us from the south. I got my phone out and took three pictures through the open window. What had originally called my attention to the sky turned out to be a helicopter although we were close enough to hear sound we heard none. (A friend has a software program to analyze photos and could see, with about 90% certainty, that the original object was a helicopter.) But above the traffic light standard there appeared another object. This one was a square. It had no heat signature, wings or rotors. I don't believe I actually saw it with my eyes, but discovered it on the pictures. This is the second time we have seen objects flying over this area. (See my two reports on NUFORC dated 4/20/2017.) We express our gratitude to Barb Becker, MO Investigators Group, for submitting the report. PD

I was going to the store, when a light caught my eye. I looked at it, assuming it was an airplane. But when I paid more attention to it, I realized that there was no noise. I looked at it for about 5 seconds, and then the object flew backwards and flew off faster than anything I've ever seen.

Columbia, MD
At approximately 9:03 am, I was outside checking something on the side of our house near the roof. As I was looking up, something in the sky caught my eye. I noticed two small white lights very high in the sky. One was directly above the other and they were moving in unison. I didn't hear any noise or see any trails behind them. After maybe 10 or 15 seconds they suddenly disappeared. I thought maybe they went behind clouds (although it wasn't very cloudy.) I never saw them re-emerge. I was thinking maybe they were airplanes flying very high in the sky? I told my son about it this afternoon and he encouraged me to write in because he didn't think planes would fly that high in the sky (and so close together). He also thinks I should have heard some sort of noise and that I should have seen a trail if they were airplanes. There was definitely no sound and there were no trails left behind.

The object suddenly appeared in the sky at a distance and was rapidly pulsing green light. The object was moving diagonally toward the earth at an extremely quick rate, and disappeared behind the horizon. It was about half the size of the moon from the perspective on the ground.

Both me and my boyfriend saw a oval shaped ring of lights in the sky last night, July 15th. The balls of light were too big to be stars and the shape didn't seem to be moving, just hovering. There was no outline to the thing, just glowing white lights. There was a haze around all the lights, they weren't like regular aircraft lights. We both saw it and tried to record it, but it was too dark to see anything on a phone camera. There was only one oval shape. It looked like it could have been hundreds of feet in diameter if it was a UFO. We sat and watched it for about 5 minutes and then we drove away and didn't see it again.

Carlotta, CA
I walked out to the back porch to dance to the moon like I do every night. As I looked up at the almost full moon, I noticed to the right a cloud which had a circular craft with three red lights around it (which didn't look like an airplane) heading to the left from the cloud towards the moons direction, then the lights disappeared and I saw this silhouette of the craft glideing towards the moon. Just before it was supposed to cross in front of the moon, it vanished in front of my eyes. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Lake Mary, FL
Viewing the night sky from Lake Mary looking WNW we saw what appeared to be a star that got bright and dimmed. The light got brighter again and seemed to have color to it. I turned my head and looked back at the sky to see that to the north and the same distance away and up there was a flare like streak in the sky and the light to the left dissappeared as if it went further West rapidly. The flare like light to the right dissipated and had flashes of white light streaks flowing away from it until that completely dissappeared. Then the original star like light that appeared first reappeared in the same area that we first saw it to only be blocked by some passing clouds. The skys were clear enough to see Stars and planes. Only a small patch of clouds obstructed our view in the end.
