My youngest and I were reading in my bedroom, and she said “look, green lights!” We all looked out and saw green lights moving so softly at first, hover then turn red. Disappear for a moment, then zoom a little, hover, changed colors four times. Seemed to be in a small area for 2 minutes. There was no sound, but it looked fairly close. When it disappeared, it was so fast that I knew it was not a helicopter, It was amazing. My son was ecstatic to have seen something like this. I’m 35, active in my community, weary of UFO sightings, but certainly not a skeptic.

Then they moved instantly a little more North and started doing the leap frog again but heading West only about 5 times and then nothing. The first set would only have 2 on at a time (just a bright dot). The second group would have 3 on. The whole event lasted less than a minute and did not happen again. I did not see any objects as the lights were very far away. When talking with my father in law he mentioned he got them on camera and I have a clip.

I have spotted many of them lately, but only at night, that's why I knew this one was different. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Nashua, NH
I was getting out of bed just before 5 a.m. The window and window shade were open. I glanced out the window and saw a very bright, stationary object off to the west of Hudson, NH. I remarked to my husband that there was a very bright star in the sky, which I assumed was a planet, and I said I had never seen one so bright. I am used to seeing the planet Venus as a bright star, but this was at least 5 times, or more, larger than that. He looked at it and said it was like something he had encountered as a teenager and described as a UFO. He laid back down and I got up to go into the next room and when I looked out that window, it was gone. Neither one of us saw it leave, but it had disappeared.

Often in the night sky I see craft. I grew up in SoCalifornia having grown up in the aerospace industry near plant 42. Point being, I always thought I had a grasp on airplane tech. Here I often see crafts in groups/ silent or close to it. The lights at times seem blinding though I’m very sensitive to light but I don’t have this reaction to airplanes.? Recently after the Northern California fires and loosing my house I live further out in a more rural area away from lights. So I see more. Approximately 1 month ago I saw many crafts seeming to be doing some operation, as if on a mission. They were flying too close to one another to be planes at least I thought. They were in small groups totaling perhaps 11. Flew over and dispersed and were all over making it difficult to distinguish between the stars and planets, as they spread out.. I feel that I can find them nightly though perhaps they are just testing I’m listening to your old reports with Art Bell now which is great. An honor to send you this report. Thank you for your hard work. I am an audio engineer, work in post production for film.

A very dark, perfectly silent chevron shape with what seemed like 2 very dim lights on each end of the wings was flying at a moderate speed seemingly only a couple hundred yards off the ground. Only saw the dark shape move across the dark sky for about 8-10 seconds before it disappeared behind houses. Flew extremely straight, and away from where I was standing. No blinking on the dim lights.

Bemidji/Grand Rapids (between), MN
On May 15, 2018, at 10:30 pm I was driving from Bemidji, MN, to Grand Rapids, MN, on Hwy 2. There were scattered clouds with mostly clear skies. The stars were beautiful that night. As I was driving I saw what I thought was a falling star than I saw a second. These were not falling stars as they were too low on the sky. My estimate would be only a few hundred feet at most. They were not heat lightening as their quality was of a search light beam. I slowed the car down to look for a source but saw nothing attached to the lights. I drove home wondering what they could have been. The next day I was telling my sister what I saw and she said she saw them too. I was driving through heavy forested land with no towns near by & my sister saw them 50 miles away so they weren't flood lights from a car dealership either. I wonder if anyone else saw them.

For the second time about a month I witnessed from the spillway on I-10W (near New Orleans Airport) a large commercial jet just floating in the sky, 100% not moving. No head wind issue just hovering in mid air. The first time I had just picked up my wife at the airport. Since January we have been followed from dusk till dawn every night no matter where we go even if we’re apart by these orb objects that sometimes looks like a star or possibly a drone. Have no propellers and make no sound just float. Some are very high, others are much lower and sometimes have an amber colored light. The lower ones follow us in the car, pop up over the tree line in our back yard in Ponchatoula, sometimes try to hide behind trees. Crazy, I know!!! I’m assuming these experiences are related. The second time way May 15th same place, this time a coworker was with me. This time a took a photo (came out very strange and nothing like what I was seeing) then a quick video that unf! ortunately doesn’t accurately capture what we saw.

I was sitting on my porch, just staring and it looked like it sped up from the ground, and with a falling leaf pattern but going up, it slowly floated up and away. I filmed it as much as I could, but I’m pissed that my video does not do it justice, because it was an orangish ball of flickering fire, which only looks like a lil orb of light in the video. I freaking out about how surreal this is, and want to say that this is not a hoax, I love this kinda stuff and hate people who hoax because they cloud the truth. I did a couple instagram stories that I would love to send but in the end, it kinda looks like normal sky lights, but I wish I could have captured it when it was doing this ascending zig zag. We have amended the time and date of the alleged sighting, based on our telephone conversation with the witness. We were impressed by his apparent sincerity about the alleged sighting. PD

May 15, 2018. Walking my dogs in a nearby school around 1 p.m. I noticed a white orb sitting high in the sky. The object was stationary. The temperature was mild with a nice breeze blowing. I realized that it was probably not a man made object. The elevation appeared as high a commercial jet in a regular high elevation flight. If there was a good wind on the ground then there would be high wind at that altitude. A balloon of any type could not stay that stationary and any tethering impossible. After around fifteen minutes the object had slowly drifted towards the West. I knew my sister had a good high resolution camera with a telescopic lens. I gave her a call and she saw and photographed it. The object this whole time was pretty much stationary with a little noticeable drift. I got home and tried to photograph it with my wife's camera but was not too successful. I got out my high powered binoculars and could see it fairly good. The object appeared oval. Insi! de the oval were too round ovals. In between the two interior ovals was dark dot. Everything except the black dot was a milky translucent and appeared to be illuminated. I bring this matter too your attention now because I did not knew that it was reported to a local news station. KMPH channel 26 Fox news. There report can be seen on You Tube under the heading of: 2 UFOS OVER FRESNO KMPH 26 NEWS MAY 15TH VIDEO SEE DESCRIPTION! I have my sister's photo if you are interested. Thanks Possible high-altitude balloon?? PD

While driving from Sherman Oaks to Thousand Oaks mid day a short rainfall happened to me on the Ventura Freeway. I thought the sunlight through the clouds looked rather strange but beautiful so I took a quick picture. It wasn’t until a few days later I tried working with the contrast of the picture when I noticed this very strange “cloud formation.” I’m not sure what it is but it certainly isn’t natural! Judge for yourself.

Jackson Hole, WY
In the early morning hours, I was driving 1/2 way up the Teton mountain pass road from the Wilson, WY, side on my way to Idaho Falls to catch an early morning flight to the east coast. I observed three bright white glowing orbs about the size of a small compact car, approximately 200 meters off in the distance and no more than 100 feet above the rugged terrain, and traveling approximately 150 knots from a southerly to northerly direction towards Yellowstone. Then...three more followed at the same high rate of speed in a perfect straight row, spaced at approximately 100 feet apart, and again followed by three more but these were brilliant red glowing orbs, again followed by three more. I was quite shaken by my observation in the fact that there were no other cars on the road at that time. It all happened with a 15 second period of time. These objects were not of this earth.

My boyfriend and I have seen these several times. We just now found this site and we are amazed. We were driving between Fort Carson and NORAD and saw 3 bright orange yellow lights in the sky that slowly faded then quickly came back.

I noticed every time I'd gone outside at night that these lights were there in the sky. Sometimes they we're in different areas above that tree and I could see them move or spin etc. But most always where all between the neighbors houses and mine in the backyards. with the naked eye you can see them moving and even changing shape if they were down low enough. well I didn't think much of them as time passes i just kept seeing them and the sky above the houses and trees then in August of 2017, I was out at 2:45 a.m. on my back patio and I did happen to look up and there were a few of these lights above the Treetops well I was yelling at my dogs to come in cuz I wanted to go back to bed and so I stepped back to the door and flickered my back porch light on and off quite quickly trying to get the dogs attention and it just so happened it was a red Christmas lights and I had never taken out at that time. After I flickered the light a few times I stepped back on my patio and I yelled at them again to come in and I looked up and one of these bright white lights Round probably the size of a very large oversized beach ball solid white orb type spherical light and as it got to the outer edges that was translucent but still white to some degree and in my mind I didn't want to think about what it was and so I just talk to it like it was a dr! one or something of that nature because if I had really stop to think I probably would have freaked out. So I started asking questions like what are you doing out this late what are you filming what are you doing why are you up there every single night and different locations of this neighborhood what are you trying to find out. It made no noise it was silent my dogs didn't react to it they just sat there and so I just kind of said to it I think you better leave and I pointed up at the sky and it left. So every night since then except when it's raining these things are out there. There is any number of them from 1 to 7 I've counted in the sky. Now they are in different locations some brighter than others some dim. I live in what's called a circle rd. so you can step on my backyard and all you see are everybody's backyard and the road that's in front of my house goes around this circle of homes. These lights are usually between my house my neighbors, then across the street I've seen them. Down the block to the left of my home which is about five or six houses down and then the other way to the right they've been out down as far as three or four homes. They hang out as dusk comes in just before 8pm. They are at house top level or Treetop level or the telephone poles the wires or just above those and higher. Then actually I can see them when they are moving up to where planes fly I've seen them actually go. I've got many photos and videos over months. I've had probably 10 people come out nobody knows what these things are. Everybody's just amazed they change shape size the jump around almost like go dancing. They had different colors in them blues and greens and when they change shapes it almost reminds me of like when you see a dandelion and it's got those white cloud like things all around the seeds imagine that being sucked in and coming out being sucked in and coming out they do that like pulse. Another movement they do is where it's like a hamster wheel and then something spins with inside of itself and in photos you can see several orbs or light spot within the light source. These things are just amazing and just don't know what they are. Earlier this year I contacted mufon and they came out and the time they did their investigation which was several months ago it was really odd because what I see around my home and just told you about is not what we experienced. When they were here we did capture some orb type things on video. These were not the white light up in the sky but were privacy fence level. We had our camera phones up on zoom to search the sky cuz that's were I see them but as we panned our camera phones down level we caught up to six white orbs type lights in my backyard. They were not presenting themselves as white spinning and moving like when they are in the sky. What was in my backyard were change shape orbs from colors of orange and yellow but would begin as white. You could even see like rings of a tree or spine type things in the center of them and a few of the orbs we have on video like 19 minutes long. That's a very cool video to watch. In one way it was kind of disappointing because they weren't the lights in the sky that I see every night or it didn't present itself like when it came down to the sky and was in front of me. After that investigation I have not seen what we captured that one night. I've been seeing the white light orb type things in the sky around my home. I still have been sending mufon pictures and video of what I keep seeing every night but because she has no idea what they are disney know how or want to proceed. They at mufon haven't come back out to see these white light orbs in the sky. They dont know how to have me capture them where she can see them better or wants me to have them next to something so distance and size could be figured. Bit its dark at night so phone lines tree tops etc don't show up just the white light. I don't know it's just kind of frustrating. I can't find anyone that seems to know anything about what they could be. No one from any kind of Space or Universal profession like from local college won't retire my emails. I don't know who else to ask what these things could be and why there here around my house and our neighborhood. They remind me sometimes of the Marfa lights only they're probably closer to me than those are from people who see them. Then also someone had mentioned to me about watching the video that NASA had put out about a tether that came loose in space and I guess either causing noise or bright light and all these white lights rushed to it and surrounded it and they didn't have an explanation for them and nobody else did either. Aanyway I don't know anyone else that knows what they are so I've now decided to report to other website like this one in hopes to find help in discovering what they are. Thank you! We have looked at the photos sent by the witness, and they appear to be photos of the planet, Venus. PD

Manhattan Beach, CA
6 bird-like figures in a loose v-formation at what appeared to be about 500 ft. elevation traveling in a westerly direction at high rate of speed. Wings did not flap. No lights visible. No noises heard. Initially thought they were fighter aircraft or geese, but the lack of lights or noise, and the high speed, didn't make sense.

I was in bed sleeping I turned over on my back opened my eyes and I could see through the bed room celling, when I looked into sky I saw it flying over my apt blinding, lights flashing, I tried to yell or speak but I couldn’t do it as I was looking into the sky! Soon it was gone; it lasted about 5 mins

Looked like a bright star, mostly red and blue twinkling lights. There were five in a semi-circular formation that were stationary in the sky. The largest and brightest one, began to move with fairly rapid speed. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Reno, NV
I was getting out of my friends car in DT Reno and happened to look up to the east. I noticed 5 white lights in perfect V formation traveling N/NE. Initially I thought it was a large plane making an aggressive turn into the airport, but the angle of the V was perfect 90 degrees and it was very large. I’m kind of a plane nerd, so I pointed it out to my group of friends how odd it was and as I did this it changed shape. The five lights began swirling around each other and made a spiral then quickly faded and disappeared. I began yelling about it but none of my friends seemed interested. I guess they’ve all seen ufo’s before.

Bremerton, WA
On the evening of May 13, 12:05 a.m., I was gazing up at the sky. All of a sudden, my eyes were drawn to the south east, and I was very amazed to observe a formation of approximately 7 bright white lights in a V formation. The lights streaked across the sky to the north east within a matter of seconds, and then winked out.
