We saw 1 extremely fast moving object that we thought was a satellite, but it was moving about 4 or 5 times faster than normal. We then saw another singular object about 5 minites later. These objects looked like a solid, constant hazy ball of light. These lights resembled a hazy star, but at 10 times the size and brightness, several of the objects moved from south to north but trailed off to the east and did not follow the normal trajectory of a satellite trailing off to the horizon. About 5 minutes after that we saw pack of about 30 of the same objects moving together south to north following the same path of the previous 2. After the pack came by, another 10 to 15 came over. I honestly can say I have never seen something that has given me goose bumps like this before. Please call me to follow up and for a more in depth report.

The event lasted about 5 minutes, from 10:30 p.m., till about 10:35 p.m., on May 12th, 2018. For most of the siting, the craft appeared to be the size of a star and occasionally would elongate into what appeared to be a small oval. Just to make sure my eyes were not playing tricks on me I looked at other stars and they were remaining still. I braced myself against a wall to steady my observation. The object moved in a straight line and in a zigzag pattern alternately. The object covered a patch of Sky approximately 3 finger widths (2.25") at arm's length (21.5"). The viewing direction was about 10 degrees east of due south by compass. The elevation was about 60 degrees above the horizon.

Tonight, to my utter shock and disbelief I saw it again along iwith someone else this time... same object, like a longated, that of teardrop.. like a giant sperm.. color was white/ that of grayish white. This time it was shapeshifting from a longated sperm to a triangular shape...& again rose up rather quickly but before doing so, it spun around slowly. 7 minutes it lasted... Back when I was 5 years old me and my sister saw a ufo outside of our kitchen window. We yelled to our parents, my dad came running w/his new camera in tow (1981) my father’s camera was brand new w/the 4 flash cubes you would attach to it. Once he saw what we saw he quickly attempted to take a snap of the ship (large ship object we all witnessed that night including my mother... the camera broke! Now in the sighting just now i am convinced that it was 7 minutes, although they are claiming I stood motionless and in shock for an hour or so by the window! Claiming that I looked spellbound. It felt like 7 m! inutes but they claim I stood still and in shock in front of my window for an hr! My ears rang the entire time tonight, as I saw this ufo... what is puzzling to me is that my ears were ringing pretty bad & had it been an hour I would’ve been aware of that notion due to the fact that the noise was unbearable to say the least!

On the date of May 12th, 2018, at approximately 8:45pm in Farmington, Missouri, I was standing outside in my yard with my son and family using a star gazing phone app to find stars and planets. At this time myself and 3 others noticed a huge flash of white lite light up the sky. The flash was like an explosion of white light as though a star had exploded. That’s when a craft that looked like a small star shot off from the flash at a speed and height I have never seen an aircraft travel. The speed was almost 100 times that of a normal passenger plane and the height in the sky it was at was almost in orbit. If it wasn’t for the bright explosion of white light I would have mistaken the craft for a satellite. The craft travelled north east at an astonishing speed and disappeared within seconds. I spoke to my friend about this who is has an impressive air force and civil aircraft background and he could not think of any known aircraft capeable of such performance and! was very interested. I’m not sure if this was an experimental craft or from another world but it was very impressive.

Was bird watching with my daughter, when I looked up (without binoculars) and saw a “classic” description of a UFO, moving rather slow. When I started trying to get my daughters attention to look, it just disappeared. Within seconds of seeing this two jets went through the sky, right where I saw the craft.

Sitting in the bedroom my boyfriend had a "weird" feeling. A light came across ceiling twice and he grabbed a camera. He started taking pics in corner of side where I sleep and caught these images. How do I upload the pictures? No photos received, as of the date of this writing. PD

Witnesses observed an object at high altitude procede from south to north +/- traveling at a speed similar to observed satelites this object appeared to vary its course from left to right and back. It also went out and came back on as It traveled NW. Perhaps a meteor skipping off the atmosphere? There were no other lights on the object. Thought it was a satellite at first except that it appeared to vary its course left and right and would "go out" and come back on later on its generally northward trajectory. It went out at about a 35 degree azimuth to the north and did not reappear. It originally appeared at about a 20 degree azimuth to the south. It did not exhibit normal aircraft lighting characteristics.

In the NW sky quite high above the horizon we witnessed what looked like a large star. We used stable binoculars to look closer and noticed that it was changing both color and shape. It was continually bright white and would occasionally have blue and red ends. At one time it changed into three oblong white balls and would return to it's original shape. Several times it almost looked like a pyramid. Before it was gone the three white balls moved up and down. There was always a "cloud" next to it that changed into a ball also. It was gone it an instant and we noticed that there was a wide white streak across the sky that stayed for quite a while. It was much too low and too wide to be a contrail. Went from NW to NE.

I saw a black chevron/triangle shaped craft approach and go over my house. I went to my van to get something. It was almost completely dark. I saw a bright light moving from a distance toward my house. I see lots of commercial and military planes in the area, but this was odd. I stopped and watched it. It was lower than the commercial planes that fly. Did not make a noise. Jet black. Solid white light in the middle and tiny one at tip. I've never seen anything like this. It was rounded like on the sides and there was a weird lined pattern all along it. You know it was not actually flat, but more like a rounded on the edges, perhaps even cone like. As it went over me I could clearly see the shape. There was one bright white light in the very middle. As it was flying it seemed to slip to the left and right a bit. It was very unusual. It did that a few times and then remained straight in the direction. When the craft got over me, the middle light fla! shed and then dimmed. Then it flickered in a weird pattern. The pattern almost seemed like a Morse code for a bit. It was unusual. I even had an eerie sense like I was being watch and it saw me because I thought I would like to see more of the craft, but the light was too bright, as soon as I thought that was when the light dimmed to where there was not as big of a glare and I could see the craft pretty well. Then a small front light came on and was going in all different directions before it faded and only the middle light remained. It was going fairly slow. The entire event lasted about 10 minutes. My neighbor saw me staring into the sky and came over and saw the light but did not see the craft as it had moved farther away. It made no noise at all--not a sound. It left no trail in the sky. It was flying from approximately the northeast to the southwest. I posted the sighting on Facebook immediately after. Before I went inside to call a friend and post this a he! licopter flew around my block and very close to the house and ! just abo ve the tree line. It was solid black as well. I thought that was odd because of stories I have heard about black helicopters and also because there is not a lot of low flying helicopter activity in our small town.

While observing the crescent moon just before sunrise under a clear blue sky on May 10, 2018, I spied a long white cigar shaped object moving across the sky. It was just below the moon and moving fairly fast. At first glance I thought it was a jet leaving a contrail. I then thought that if it was indeed a jet, it appeared very high up. I then noticed that the shape of the object was not changing. When the object was directly below the moon it blinked out of view and immediately reappeared. The object moved along for a few more seconds before vanishing again and did not seem to reappear.

I had just gotten off the freeway at about 10:15 p.m. on May 9th, 2018. There was a significant amount of cloud cover in the sky so most of the stars were not visible, and the few that were were dulled by a layer of clouds. The vehicle I was driving was a 2013 Silverado, the windows were up and all accessories, including the radio, was off. In other words it was very quiet in the cab, especially once I pulled off I-84 E via exit 129. I turned left onto Gopher Knoll Rd, which heads NW for approximately 2000 ft before veering right slightly and fixing on a NNW heading for the next couple miles. Not long after turning onto Gopher Knoll Rd, still speeding up in fact. I saw a bright orange light out of the corner of my eye. Almost dead left of me. I'm not entirely sure what shape it was but it wasn't a perfect sphere. Neither was it triangular or disc-shaped. It was sorta round. For a lack of a better term, I'd say it looked oblong-ish. At first glance I thought it was a flare. But after a second look I realized it was way too big. I have seen planes drop flares over Saylor Creek Bomb Range many times and I know how easily one might confuse the military shooting off flares for something more fantastical than what is actually happening. This was definitely NOT a flare. Nor was it a plane, helicopter, a reflection of interior lights, a meteor, or god help me the sun. There is no way anyone would be able to convince me it was any of those things. The closest thing I can think of that could possibly pass as a realistic explanation is it was a very very large and EXTREMELY well lit blimp. But even that would be a hard sell. It appeared to be about a third the size of the moon from my perspective (not actual size obviously) and it hovered just below the clouds, or at least the bottom of it did. The orange illumination only lasted 10 or 20 seconds before it suddenly started to dim. About 4 seconds later it was gone. By this time I was heading NNW and away from the aircraft. It was now more or less in my blind spot (to my left and behind me) only higher than my mirrors would show me.. I kept looking over my left shoulder (much like you do when merging onto a busy interstate) hoping I would see it again. And eventually, sure enough, I did. I'm not exactly sure how long it was lit up the second time either. But the third time I did see it lighting back up. Its transition of going from nothing to full brightness was real close to, if not exactly the same length of time as its transition from full brightness to pitch black, which was about 4 seconds. I then decided to pull off and film it. It would have been really lousy quality but at least it would have been something. Unfortunately, by the time I got out of the truck and turned on the camera it had gone dark again. This time it just stayed dark. I sat there waiting for 5 or 10 minutes hoping to see it light up again, but it never did. I should add that I was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or overly exhausted, or anything like that. I am also not a dishonest person by anyone's standards. Lying about this would only be counter productive to the progress of humanity, not to mention it'd make me a total ((one word deleted)). I am in no way lying or exaggerating. I'm just a guy trying to do the right thing

Hello, three pictures were taken in Curlew, WA, on Wednesday afternoon May 9, 2018, by my grandson (19 yrs. old). He said he ran outside to take pictures of the rainbow. He took 3 consecutive shots on his cell phone camera. He sent the pictures via text to me as he knows I love rainbows. He said he was amazed at what he saw other than the rainbow. Two other people were with him and witnessed the event. Note the white disk shaped object to the right above the rainbow. The second photo shows it again. In the third photo it is gone. He said, "I was just taking pics of the rainbow and it showed up out of nowhere. It wasn't even there for two seconds before a muffled hum and like that it was gone". Note the two white disks in the distance above the green dumpster's top left corner--follow the treeline up the hill. Those two disks are not in the first two photos. I don't know what those are but sure would like to find out. Please take a look and see what you think and let us know. These pictures are incredible! [the 3 photos have just been sent from my email account separate from this submission as]

I’m a 24 year old Male, with two college degrees. One in hard science, one in architecture. I have had sightings before but I like to think it’s because I pay close attention to the sky at all times. Last night - the night of May 8th, 2018, I was at a friend's house. I was standing in the backyard and happened to be looking in the sky, slightly to the SW (looking in the direction of Thumb Butte for those of you who know the area) and all of a sudden a fiery ball of light that pulsed between green and yellow light frequencies streamed through the sky at high speeds. It lasted for only about 5 seconds. Right when it entered our field of sight, the 4 dogs that live on the property started freaking out. This was not a meteorite. I have seen multiple and many meteorites at varying distances in our atmosphere, and this was not one. It was too low and not fast enough and the color was not that of a meteor burning up. Only one other person in the backyard saw it with me.

Craft is in distant but huge and changes directions quickly and rapidly, very quiet. Will post more as we have been watching it for over an hour and it is to the south of us, possibly over the port of Tampa which is 70 miles from us.

I noticed out of the crack of my window which I don’t know how long before that it was there, there was What appeared to be a fire in the sky, it looed like someone lit a lighter from far away up in the sky and was just holding it veryyyy still in one spot. When I put my face in the window to look at it closer the next thing I knew it was gone and I never saw it again. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) It was at night! Thank you, ((END ADDENDUM)) Time above has been amended. PD

Driving North from Bryce Canyon to Richfield ,taking Rt.89,on May 8th, 2 of us witnessed in the western sky a large bright orange orb seem to flash out or hit the ground and disappear. This sighting was in the western sky. The second sighting was made by all of us. We were admiring the beautiful stars in the very dark sky. We stopped the car when we noticed 4 blinking lights in a square formation. These were not stars as they proceeded to change shape into 4 blinking lights in a straight line. We observed the awesome sight and thought it best to get back into the car and move along as it was very dark and we were in the middle of nowhere. We were traveling close or in the Dixie National Forest. This UAP was above what an airplane would be able to reach, so we don't believe it was an aircraft. This UAP was in the Northeastern sky.

I have seen the ship on several occasions across from my home and it changes shapes from a triangle to a circle to an oblong and cigar shape. It also changes colors and sometimes I miss blasts of different colors of red green blue and like a light purple. I am attaching several photos taken this evening. If it all possible I would like someone to contact me from your organization. Thank you.

Gloucester, MA
I was driving home to Gloucester, MA from Salem, MA, tonight, May 8th, about 8:15 pm on route 128 (highway). As I got to about exit 15, I noticed a very bright round object on my left far ahead, above the tree line. It was larger than a star and extremely bright and perfectly round. As I got closer and crossed the bridge into Gloucester, I saw that it was hovering over the Annisquam Rover and moved like a helicopter but was pulsing different colors and was staying fairly stationary, but not completely still. It was also totally silent. As I went around the rotary and headed to my neighborhood, I could still glimpse it when there was an opening in the trees and houses. Once I got to Wheeler St, it was closer and brighter, and I saw other cars slow down to look at it. You could make out colors that it was 'pulsing' - red, green, purple, yellow - but not in that order. I pulled over and watched it for a full minute and then rushed home to tell my kids about it. H! owever, when I pulled into my driveway, there was ANOTHER similar sphere above the Mill River. It too was pulsing colors, so I called my daughters out and we all watched it for a good 10 minutes with binoculars. It was perfectly round like the other one, but a bit further off and higher in the sky. It was harder to see what colors this one was with the naked eye, but we could see color sequences when we watched it thru the binoculars. I tried taking photos, but it was too far away for my phone to really catch it. It pulsed just like the other one I had seen on the way home. My younger daughter, age 13, said it looks like "a clear ball filled with multicolored Christmas lights going off in it really fast". We went in for dinner eventually, and 30 minutes later it was gone.
