Bordentown, NJ
I was driving from Browns Mills, NJ, and heading to Bordentown, NJ. I notice the moon was a finger nail shape and a object was next to it. so I told my husband we watched as it did not move. And when we got to Bordentown. and noticed it was still there, looked to the left there was another one, and to the right of us was another one up in the sky. far away but they was up there. just standing still as can be. we noticed a lot of flight traffic for a sunday night as well. but these things where not fazed and was above all that flight traffic. So we drove home and they was still there and we pass the airbase on the way. So its weird. but Its a little creepy but I wish our government would just say yes there are aliens. so we know what to expect when we come face to face with them. we seen the lights and seen them as plain as day at night.

I was in stop and go traffic Southbound I-5 approaching the 205 Freeway. The sky was clear blue and I saw a shiny silver disk object in the sky. I sat up in my seat to try to get a better look because I was thinking, is that an airplane? But the shape was long and flat with a raised top and it was so shiny. It seemed to be in the same place, hovering in the same spot in the sky. I blinked and it was gone. I looked around the sky in every direction but there was nothing.

It flew pretty much the same areas the jets fly but went straight off into the SE direction. Very strange and I wondered how that could actually fly being a rectangle. Since it was there in broad daylight, I assumed it must be military…I saw it for about 2 to 3 minutes as it went slowly by.

Anna Maria, FL
Two rapidly moving spheres traveling from North to South over Anna Maria Island. Left no contrails, no sound, and no visible lights. Appeared slightly fuzzy, almost as if out of focus, if viewing through a camera. No pics or video, unfortunately. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

A bright flashing white golden light was above my house high up in the ionosphere, it was so bright, it caught my attention to look up, it felt like it was watching me, it felt like it flashlighted us, then it moved very quickly and disappeared.

At 22:30, 07.15.2018 I noticed an object traversing the sky in a Northerly direction. A red glowing orb, with a smaller blue glowing orb trailing slightly behind. The blue orb appeared to erratically circle around the path of the larger, red orb, but both were tracking nearly due north. As they approached the path of a high-altitude airliner, the orbs slowed substantially, and veered around behind the path of the airplane, then continued on their original northerly direction. These objects seemed to be flying at an altitude similar to high-flying commercial aircraft, but would have been MUCH larger than a large airplane, and were travelling much faster than the airplane. Thursday night, 07/19/2018, two single red orbs were seen, 11 minutes apart, and observed by myself and another person. Will report separately.

Bradford, IA
First I want to point out, I’m not sure if the 14th is the exact date. It was a Saturday in July, but a I can’t remember which. My girlfriend and I were fishing late at a farm pond outside of Bradford. The pond is a ways off the road. You can’t see it from any roads or homesteads. Unless you are local, you wouldn’t even know it’s back there. It had gotten dark and the dog was still swimming and playing so I just threw in a catfish line, and we just stood side by side quietly just looking out over the pond. It was a beautiful night when we heard the strangest noise. It kinda makes my hair stand on end just typing this. Something came from behind us moving really fast, and it was gone as quick as it came. It kind of sounded like a oversized bottle rocket, or a big arrow that was spinning making like a quick “ssshush” sound. I half thought something was going to blow up in front of me, and looked for some sort of smoke trail but there was nothing. The water didn’t even ripple. I turned to her and almost in sink we both said, “what ((words deleted)) was that?” I’ve lived around here my whole life, spent time out in the sticks a lot and never heard anything like that. I half expected someone to be playing a trick on us but there was no one within miles, I pulled out my spot like in the truck and couldn’t see a thing. We both were kinda freaked out at that point so we grabbed the dog and took off. I didn’t tell many people this, and the ones I did reacted about like I would. They just laughed and said we were hearing things. Also, we weren’t drinking, no drugs, nothing to alter our minds. I don’t know if that was alien or not, but whatever we heard couldn’t be seen, moved very fast, and was not made by nature.

Seattle, WA
Having just paid, we lined up for the Bainbridge Island ferry in downtown Seattle, on the north side of Colman Dock. At the time it was 81 degrees F, the skies were clear and blue and visibility was good. After walking to the end of the dock to take photos I returned to the car. At about 7pm, while watching a jet flying overhead, I noticed (also to the south) a white round or oval object a bit to the west of and much higher up than the jet. It did not seem to be either taking off or landing so I watched it. After a few minutes it remained in place so I pointed it out to my husband. He thought its shape was odd (not plane-like). At first he thought it was moving but after observing it for a minute or so said it was remaining in place. At about 7:05pm we both saw something extend out of it temporarily (for between 15 to 20 seconds). The extension appeared smaller than and the same color white as the main object and it too was also round or circular. At 7:05pm I took one photo of the object with my cell phone. After maybe 30 seconds the same object emerged from the main object again. Again it retracted into the main object. Thereafter, during the entire time we watched, this happened at the same intervals regularly. The second object may not have been extending and retracting but only appearing to as perhaps the entire object may have been rotating with something extended from it. It was too far to tell. After watching for a bit the second object appeared to me to be an arm with something circular at the end of the arm. My husband saw a round object emerging and returning to the main round object (no arm). He thought the extension was maybe another (a second) circular object like the main one. At no time did we see anything actually leave the main object. We agreed as we watched that it was not a plane, conventional drone, kite, blimp, or helicopter (it had no tail, wings, or rotor). We did not hear any noise from it. At 7:08 I took a second photo of it with my cell phone. We tried but could not identify it and got back into the car to wait (where it was cooler because of the A/C). We each looked at the object every so often. At around 7:10pm my husband said it was slowly fading. I looked and thought it was maybe drifting south but my husband thought it was slowly ascending. After a couple of minutes we could no longer find it. Though the line for the Bainbridge Island ferry was about one third full by 7:05pm during the sighting I did not notice anyone else watching it. There were cars lined up on the south side of the ferry terminal heading to Bremerton but I could not see them so I do not know if anyone there saw it. Based on its relative position: to us where we were on Colman Dock and to the various jets we saw take off, it appeared to have been over Boeing Field or SeaTac Airport, but was at a much higher elevation than the jets taking off. As it was far above us, there was no way to estimate its size. Neither of us ever did identify it. Of the two photos I took, neither is a good photo but after zooming in fully, the object is visible in each photo. In the 7:05pm photo it is a white diamond shape with rounded diamond points. In the 7:08pm photo it is smaller than it is in the first photo, and not a diamond but a blurry conical shape. No extension is visible in either photo.

Pilot Rock, OR
Returning to Pendleton on Hwy 395, I was buzzed by, for want of a better description, an egg shaped object. It was Saturday afternoon and I was eight miles south of Pilot Rock, heading northbound, when what first appeared to be a car, standing on end, sailed about thirty feet above my vehicle and cruised on ahead of me. I was doing about 65 when this thing passed overhead; and concerned about being distracted, I decided to slow down. After getting a better look at it, the object was definitely shaped like an egg. It was tapered from the top towards a broad base. All white in color, the thing was the size of something like a U-Haul trailer—maybe six feet tall and fifteen feet or more in diameter at the base. For a moment, I considered the possibility that maybe this thing was some sort of drone. But I got to wondering, aren’t drones supposed to have some sort of propulsion? I couldn’t make out anything that resembled propellers, or an air intake, an exhaust port, something like that. There didn’t appear to be anything that was hanging from the object—landing gear, wheels, struts, nothing that resembled that kind of provision. There didn’t appear to be any obvious joints or seams, something that might indicate how the object was put together. Interestingly enough, there were little moments when I was certain that the material that covered this thing, although smooth, appeared to change shape. It looked like it might be elastic, or made of some kind of liquid. I don’t know if that makes any sense, but, then, the entire sighting was odd. For an insurance salesman, selling Life, Home, and Auto—and returning from our office in John Day—this was the strangest thing that I’ve ever seen on the road—or anywhere else, for that matter. After ten minutes, this thing cruised on ahead until I lost sight of it. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Medford, OR
To this day, I've never told anyone nor my friends. We were heading south from White City with my friends in my buddy's car. I was riding the back seat and my buddy's relative sitting passenger. It was a nice, beautiful day clear sky's with no clouds. We were taking the back road that runs next to Roxy Ann MT. which is the east side of the valley. As we got closer, I happened to look out the window to look at the view. I then looked up and just sitting there motionless about 200 ft above the ground was a black disc UFO just hovering above. I then immediately was shocked at what I was seeing and became to be fearful. I was so shocked that I couldn't even speak or shout as I was just paralyzed looking at this craft. The car was still moving, and I had to keep turning to look at it which was only about 1 minute. However, looking at the craft, I remember seeing this bright neon green light that came from the side of the craft that looked rectangle. I'm not sure what it was but neither do I know what I was all looking at. The black UFO looked like it had a metallic metal look to it, but honestly the whole craft had this dark, unsettling feeling that just didn't look natural nor is from this world. It was about a dark as the grim ripper, totally unsettling. I wanted to tell my friends, but they didn't see it and I thought they would have made fun of me or call me crazy. I kept looking as long as I could while we were driving away, but eventually I wasn't able to see it.

Cresent Lake - Middle of the Mission Mountain Wilderness - F, MT
Woke up around 1 am on Saturday morning. My tent has a ceiling that is simply made of mesh, so you can clearly see the night's sky. Looking up while laying in my sleeping bag, I saw a bright orange colored light move across the sky. I can describe it this way: at first it moved as fast and was as bright as a shooting star (and that's what I originally thought it was). But it didn't have a long tail or trail like a shooting star. And then it shifted gears dramatically (while still headed in the same trajectory) and went from being super bright to not so bright (by like the power of ten) and at the same instant of losing its brightness, it slowed to the speed at which satellites orbit through the sky. I watched it until it went behind the tops of trees that were in my view of sight. The direction that it traveled was Northeast toward Southwest.

Some thought they saw shooting stars. There was a plane with a red light that flew through the sky approximately 23:20. It was amazing we had never seen such a phenomenon. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Lincoln City, OR
Came out of business into parking lot - walking to my pickup. Looked past it and over a motel to the west, (maybe beyond - it over ocean) was a dark diamond shaped object in sky - with lighted surface facing land - a symetrical pattern of red and blue lights - I watched for a minute or several, then Realized there were others much higher in sky to the north (near a dozen) - same shape, same lights, in random scattered pattern in sky - all of similar size/distance from me. All remained stationary the few minutes I watched them thought of taking a photo, wish I had, but also remember having a concern that if I took a photo, it (whatever it was) might not take kindly to a photo being taken. It remained stationary as did the others high up. I got in upickup and drove south, again at Siletz River, another/same shape and lights arrangement over lower Siletz River, lights facing west this time, and again, about same number of others like it higher up in sky and tho! se again, seemed more parallel to ground (less angled east or west) - wrote up soon after and sent to this site, but received reply to fill out online form - and haven’t til now. I also did a drawing to illustrate.

Lincoln City, OR
(1st) North Lincoln City, Lincoln County, OR. I saw a elongated diamond shape over a motel near the beach. It ppleared to have its underside tilted/angled toward the land. Within the crisp outlined/edged dark diamond shape were regularly interval spaced/patterned in red and blue color. As Inwas staring at it, trying to figure out how close or large it might be, noticed others to the right (farther north) and much, much higher in the sky... the main (closer) and others were stationary, motionless. No sound made that I could detect of the maIn one... and other’s were far too distant to know if made sound... so small because of distance that they were barely discernable as the same diamond shape blue and red light patternon each. Eventually I got in my pickup - still pondering what I’d been watching.... five miles south (approx 8-10 mins after leaving 1st sighting) - south of Lincoln City, as approaching Siletz turn-off from hwy 101 - same scene east of 101, but appeared to be facing the ocean, closest one - same object Shape and Color (red and blue) and pattern of lights... and again, others, maybe 10, appearing much smaller because of being much, much higher in the sky. Turned up Siletz River... drove into town of Siletz. As I was approaching town of Siletz, as I was 1/4 to 1/2 a mile from town, again saw one of same objects closer to ground, and a scattering (maybe 8 or so) of the others positioned much higher in the sky - by then it was a little about 11:40 pm.
