Fontana, CA
On the night of 05/03/2018, I saw two sightings, both times the shape of the light emitted from the object was the same. First one was heading north as me and my friend looked eastward. The second we were facing south and the object was heading west. The light was 4 rectangle lights going up and down like a snake slithering. It looked like notes on music sheets dancing in sync up and down. I was with a friend and we both confirmed what we just witnessed to ourselves.

Bullhead City, AZ
First saw this shape with a light pattern on 5/2/18 at the same time of day. Was able to focus a telescope on it for about 2 minutes before it vanished. On 5/3/18, I saw it again. Sky is clear. No moon yet. I observed it for the full duration through the telescope. There is a very definitive and intricate pattern to the lights. It was also moving very slowly as I had to keep adjusting the scope. I was able to record approximately 20 seconds of video and got one decent picture using an iPhone. From the north end of Bullhead City and just east of the airport, the scope is aimed to 300 degrees and 4 degrees up from horizontal. The light pattern has been visible the last two nights. Without moving the scope from last night’s viewing, I looked through it this morning and all I could see was clear sky.

Russellville, AR
Multiple craft seen at least once a week for the past 5 months or so, usually hovering above the Skyline hills. I usually see them on a smoke break at my job. One occurrence was a bright green object moving above the mountain, stopped, changed to a red light, then dipped down below the tree line, and then shot back up. One night saw very large craft with bright white lights hovering above the mountain area. Another night saw triangular objects fly over my work place. Multiple occasions of white lights jetting across the sky and coming to a complete stop. Only one day have I seen a military aircraft in the area, and it was an army blackhawk helicopter flying over during the day. Could have been flying towards the nuclear plant, which is a UFO hotspot in our area. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Saltville, VA
Approximately 8:45 PM on May 3, 2018, between the towns of Chilhowie and Saltville, VA, my two sons, ages 11 and 17, witness something amazing. As they were facing west (slightly southwest) they saw Venus with a very similar object nearby. It was slightly higher altitude and just to the south. Both of them were immediately confused. They are very familiar with the night sky and are used to seeing the one bright object. They knew they had never seen two similar objects in those positions before. They observed both objects for at least 5 to 7 seconds. Then the object that was higher in altitude and slightly to the south simply went away. I was driving the car and could not look to see the objects, yet they were narrating the experience the entire time. Their reaction was quite earnest and not dramatic in anyway. They obviously had the same experience simultaneously. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she seemed to us to be quite serious-minded. She seemed quite familiar with the positions of visible planets, at the time of the sighting. PD

Federal Way, WA
My wife and I were driving north bound on I-5 and a blue object darted out from right to left over the freeway very fast. Lasted only about 2-3 seconds. It was heading NW then vanished. Too fast and small for a helicopter to low for a plane and to fast for a drone. My wife thought it was a shooting star, but again, it was too low. If anyone else saw it, please respond.

Sebastopol, CA
This entire event was observed with a gen 1+ or gen 2 type Russian surplus night vision scope. On three separate occasions, I have witnessed what appear to be "satellites" crossing the early evening sky, but demonstrating maneuvers that would be impossible for a traditional orbiting craft. What these appear to be are orbital or perhaps sub-orbital craft, stopping, changing flight paths, sudden alternative movements, etc. However, this latest event, on the evening of May 3, is unique, in that shortly after the mystery "satellite" object was spotted almost directly overhead, heading due north, then stopping and reversing flight path heading due south . . . three military type jets at very high altitude followed behind in tight formation. This may have been coincidence, or perhaps directly related, I have no way of knowing, but included (via email) is a diagram of the actual event, exactly as witnessed. Though the three military type jets were at high altitude, they could clearly be seen with the naked eye. The "satellite" or sub orbital object however, could be clearly seen in the night vision scope, but was barely visible to the naked eye, and soon faded from view as it passed overhead toward the horizon, due south.

The outline of a house sized craft silently cruised over me in my work parking lot early one dark morning hovering above the old navy store perfectly still.this was a ufo with stealth technology blending in with the building and the darkness. I got out of my car and stared at it from the middle of the parking lot for about 2 minutes, then it silently darted off to my left at astonishing speed.

The craft had no noise section. It passed over me at a low altitude in a silent manner. As it headed north west I saw that it had a blinking red light aft on its underside and a blinking white light aft on its topside. It moved very slowly.

Light as bright as star moving east. constant speed. Would stop for about 10 seconds, then continue on. Would fade completely out then be real bright again, the stops were about 6 times. then just went out and was gone.

Five objects hovering in the sky and they were moving at a rapid speed. They would move and stop rapidly.

Greenville, PA
Same as last nite only it was moving around. I drove to Greenville just to see what it would do and where it was in the sky. It was hovering towards north west sky Jamestown, Ohio, area. Hovered for almost two hours from 8pm to 10:45 pm. Tomorrow Im going to see if it shows up again this time I'm watching to see where it appears.

I was able to snap 2 pictures of it before it disappeared. It must have been bigger then an airplane.

Zimmerman, MN
Being the night owl I am, I usually find myself out for a cigarette at the dead times of night (generally between 1 am and 3 am I go out for the last time.) Being the observer I am, my eyes are usually glued to the skies. Around the end of November 2017, I began to notice a very peculiar light in the sky, consistently showing up on the horizon around the given hours. The light is familiarized by it's unique flashing pattern-a dull green fading in and out through a red,white,and yellow spectrum. Naturally curious, I have often found myself trying to eye it out in the sky most nights and am often times successful. Beyond the pattern of lights the (seeming) ufo has to make it noticeable, it also very often makes spontaneous and erratic movements that just make it seem completely inhuman. Darting from the left to the right, pausing for a brief moment, and then speeding directly up and down in the sky- over and over continually for generally around 30 minutes to an hour(do note, a lot of the time spent visible it seemingly is still, but has small bursts of movements around every 5 minutes.) The reason I chose to finally document this case is due to an oddity that was more disturbing than the norm I had come to expect. It was a semi clear night, just some roaming clouds and a stable wind when I noticed the normal conspicuous satellite-like light coming from the northern sky, but the more I inspected it, the more I noticed it seemed to be moving very slowly and methodically with another light directly above it. This second light was much more dim and much less noticeable, but the lights were beyond a reasonable doubt moving upwards in the sky in unison. After maybe 2-3 minutes of these lights slowly creeping vertically in the sky, it had seemed they had come to a halt when very suddenly, the less noticeable light appeared to very quickly speed out of sight going upward in the night sky and before I could even tell what had happened logically, the residual brighter light also seemed to have simply disappeared into the night.

Apache Junction, AZ
There were 2 bright lights, that could only be seen through the telescope, and they were white. Then a third one appeared and they moved into a triangle formation, after chasing each other around in the sky just above the saddle of the mountain, when looking from Apache Junction. Once they settled into the triangle formation, they began "crashing" into each other, for lack of better description, almost in turns. When this happened, they would glow bright and then dim back down, and would change color as they got hit, almost like it was showing damage. They went from white, to green, to red to an orange or amber color. Every now and then, one of the lights would shoot off and disappear, and another would come back to replace it in just a few minutes. This went on for at least an hour, until 2 extremely bright lights flew in from the south, moving like helicopters, and chased the color changing lights behind the mountain, where they did not reappear from behind of. These lights were only visible through the telescope, but the flashes could be seen with the naked eye. My son was very freaked out, and I was texting multiple people a play-by-play as it was happening, eyes glued to the telescope. I was unable to get any photo documentation due to this fact. Times and dates are estimated, but within reasonable range. The event occurred between the middle of april to end of may, and it had been dark already for a while. I did not realize such a thing as this existed, or I would have reported this the moment it happened

At first it almost looked like a black line in the sky. It went over a tree and I caught a glimpse out of the corner of my eye. I didn't think to much of it and just thought it was a plane, until the object did a complete turn without turning. It turned on the dot and started going back in the other direction, coming back towards my house as a glowing ball or orb of bright whitish/yellow light. It was moving at a steady pace. It then went straight up into the rays of the sun and disappeared. There was absolutely no sound whatsoever. Clearly it was not an airplane as I live close to an airport and there were 2 planes in the sky around the same time. Since I live so close to the airport, most of the planes are taking off or landing so they are pretty close to the ground and quite distinguishable. The strangest part to me was that it was in the middle of the day and yet it was so brightly glowing. I was able to take a few photos of the object; however, my cell phone camera isn't the best so it just looks like a bright light in the sky.

Asheville, NC
About three months later I woke up in the middle of the night and a bright neon green light was in the grass of my neighbors across the street. I live in the woods and this light was not the color of a lighting bug or a small animals eye - I watched - did not take my eyes off as it buried itself into the dirt. I know what I saw and spent a half an hour combing every square inch of the grassy area the next day and didn't see any big bug that may have died or any hole from a mole if that is what someone is going to say to me. I just want an explanation because this is happening and maybe there is an explanation. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
