Toledo, OH
Driving on I-80 West outside of Toledo, OH, noticed an object hovering at about 5 times the height of a large communications tower in the dark night sky. It was a dome with a rod emanating out of the top. The rod was about 1/6th the height of the dome portion. At the top of the rod, there were two smaller curved rods pointing in opposite directions. The outside of the dome was brilliantly shiny. The outline of the dome itself was so bright, it almost appeared to be electrified. Inside the dome, the composition appeared to be milky in color and without a defined shape. The whole affair reminded me of something you might observe under a microscope. Four times before in my life, I have seen what I truly believe were UFOs (either from the beyond or perhaps made here). This one, however, I seriously wonder if it was something manmade (communications apparatus?) that I just do not have the knowledge to identify.

Marietta, GA
20Jan2018 and 21Jan2018 Marietta, GA. I am in West Cobb, several miles from Kennesaw Mountain, and yesterday morning, around 1:44 AM EST, I looked out my bathroom window and saw two erratically moving bright objects high in the sky. One object was to my right, emitting green light, lower in the sky than the other and moving more slowly. The other was a bright pale yellow, much higher to the left and moving rapidly and erratically in a wide path. I cannot tell the shape as I am mainly seeing bright light but the light appears to be circular or oval. I am in a flight path for both McCollum Field and Dobbins Air Reserve Base so initially I thought it might be a helicopter or small plane, but the way the object was moving I do not believe would be possible for a known aircraft. I did see the green object sparkling brightly but barely moving again to the right around 8:26 PM last evening (20Jan2018) and hoped it was just a star in the very cold and clear sky. This morning, around 1:26 AM I again saw the yellowish object to the left. It was moving up, down and across in the same rapid and erratic pattern as the morning before. This time however, that object was suddenly joined by a bright green object. I did not see the green object arrive but it was not there when I first saw the yellow light. The objects seem to be circling each other but not in any organized fashion. They are darting back and forth. There appear to be small red lights around the edges of the green object. I don’t know if the green object is the same one I saw to the right the morning and evening before. I checked McCollum Field’s flight schedule, and there are no scheduled flights or arrivals at this time. There was only one flight, an arrival at 12:05 AM from Scottsdale that might possibly be heading over my area. I don’t know how to contact Dobbins to ask whether they have any planes in the air. Do I need to report this to the police or to Dobbins? As for my background I am a 56 year old female, currently unemployed but have been a Pharmaceutical/Bio-Tech Project Manager for the past 15 years. I usually try to find a logical explanation for everything but I also strongly believe there can be no common explanation for some events.

was walking with a friend up at the Ethan Allen tower. once we got the top, we both saw three red orbs equally spaced and high flying silently up the lake. maybe a half a mile high. high speed. I've worked with commercial, private, and military aircraft, this was none of those.no blinking lights, perfectly round, and no noise. eventually flying out of view. unfortunately left my cell phone at the house.

I was honestly to scared to stop and try to get pictures and i will regret not doing it forever, tried to call the newspaper today to see if anyone else reported them but got no answer today but i will be calling monday, They are just burnt into my mind i can't believe what i saw. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she seemed to us to be quite sincere, and sober-minded. We suspect that she is a very good witness. PD

Melbourne, FL
Saw ufo on the way home from Orlando to Melbourne, Florida, on highway 95. On the left-hand side, there was something on fire in the sky. I thought it was a meteor or space junk, until it dropped and stopped. It disappeared then it re-appeared probably a couple hundred feet above the ground. It flashed. It looked like there were light beams coming out of the side of it. It was also smoky around it. It was probably an egg shape and white ish with a red/orange/yellow light surrounding it. It then vanished and re appeared 3 times until it completely vanished. Then further down the road there was this giant triangle in the sky. 3 light very bright. One vanished and the other was flashing (not an airplane or helicopter) then suddenly this one appears that is low that is 3 lights on top and 3 lights on bottom on red and green and it was just flying around. I was trying to take a photo/video and my phone was malfunctioning. I called my mom and was freaking out about it to her on the phone. It was crazy.

Cheyenne, WY
I was north of mile marker 22 on I-25, south bound. Out of the east I saw 2 green orbs that had a large circumference, if I held my fingers up towards my windshield to circle around them there would have been a gap between my index finger and thumb. There were no strobe lights, only the green orbs and they maintained the same latitude with each other and the same distance was maintained between them and it is my estimation that they were moving about a 125 knots per hour, about the same speed as a small plane such as a Cessna. It took awhile for them to get to the interstate, cross it and for me to intersect their trajectory. By the time I was intersecting their trajectory I was in alignment with their westbound direction and I could see one was directly behind the other. I watched until I couldn't see them anymore. I reported to my local sheriff.

Ran inside to get binoculars by the time I got back outside I could barely see the craft heading to the West. Craziest thing I have ever witnessed.

Saw 3 dark orange-brown orbs in a very tight triangle formation, although at one point one of the orbs leap-frogged another one. Initially, I thought it was lazer beams pointed at the sky, however their were no clouds, thus nowhere for the beams to shine on. It hovered above my head for a second and then flew across the sky at such incredible speeds that it vanished beyond the horizon in a matter of seconds.

Franklin, NJ
Last night at 6:45 PM EST, my wife and I were driving to dinner towards Sparta on Route 517 in Sussex County, NJ, about 1 mile east of Route 23. We were driving southwest, when we noticed a formation of orange/red lights in the sky to the south of us. There appeared to be between 15-20 individual light flying in formation about a quarter-mile from our location and about 300-400 feet from the ground. The lights were flying in formation, but they also flew at varying speeds, with some lights overtaking others or flying around them. The string of lights stretched back about 1000 feet, and formed some shapes as they flew past such as triangles or squares. No other lights could be seen, such as would be required on aircraft or even drones. I rolled down the window, but did not hear any sounds of ultra-light aircraft or drones. They moved too fast to be lanterns, approximately 40-50 MPH on a night with no wind. I couldn't pull over in time to take a video of them, and by the time I could stop they were too far away heading northeast. I am very familiar with all types of aircraft and I could not identify these lights. I've also spoken with friends who are pilots and they are stumped as well.

On Friday, January 19, at approximately 18:16 in the afternoon, while traveling from Cottondale to Chipley, west bound, myself and my spouse noticed a spherical spectrum of light towards the west of the Chipley area that seemed to change shape and color the object was observed for approximately 30 minutes before disappearing.

Tampa, FL
UFO Report: I am in Hillborough County Florida. My address is Tampa, but I am actually in Northdale about 8 miles North of Tampa. At 7:49 PM, I walked into my office on the 3rd floor of my apartment building to get my keys. The light was off and I noticed something outside of my plate glass window. Looking due East, I saw a bright red/orange light coming towards me from the horizon. I got my cell phone out and videotaped it for the next 2 minutes and 20 seconds. The fiery look settled down and I noticed it was a round orange globe, too big to be a planet, and too small to be the moon. The skies were crystal clear. It flashed orange lights a few times and then stayed white and seemed to be further away. It drifted slowly to the south and stayed fixed for a minute or so. Then it began drifting to the south more noticeably and stopped again. After another minute or so, it simply disappeared. I have an excellent quality video on my phone that shows this event really well. I am a retired salesman, 58 years old. I moved to Florida from Kentucky 2 ½ years ago. I am always sky watching.

Bright orange ball of light over Lake Baldwin. We pulled over. There were allay three people recording. It was stationary and large. Suddenly it turned diffused... as though it were surrounded by clouds or some, but there wasn't a cloud near it. Then it simply disappeared...blipped out of the sky as though it were extinguished.

Saw driving on 295 near Rt 30. At first I just thought it was an airplane, but it was way too close to the barrier. Had bright red and green lights on the underside. I saw it for a few seconds and then it was like it just disappeared. I’ve never seen anything like that from just an airplane! And then when I arrived home, I heard strange sounds in the air. Really freaked me out.

I step outside at my front porch for a cigarette and probably for almost approximately 3 minutes prior while I was out there, I spotted the first air craft. All I could see was a big bright ball of red light above our road/street 15-16ft from my house. It stood still in the sky and I don’t know how long it was already there. And I didn’t thought anything about it at first until I took a few step forward to try to take a good look of it and that’s when it moved and shifted to the right. It moved pretty quickly towards our dead end road an then it came back towards where it had been above me. It came a little slower than when it had moved before. Then it started to flash some kind of light blueish bright lights from the aircraft. Those blueish lights doesn’t flash like any normal airplane would. There’s no way and there’s no way any airplanes/drones moves like how this aircraft moves and how fast it was flying up there strangely. The big ball of red light it doesn’t flash and it doesn’t go off. It continuously was very visible. I cannot make out how this aircraft looks like. It stopped a few times where I am an then it just moves strangely back and forth rapidly in strange movement. A n then I notice when the first aircraft moved towards hwy I-94, another aircraft moves in towards above the houses across from my house. It was moving at a slower paste than the first one. But it seemed to be following the first aircraft. The second ship you could tell that its an oval shaped bc it had diminish whitish lights aligned together giving out the shape. And its color is like a metallic/grayish color to it. It’s only a few minutes then the first aircraft flew quite fast off my left towards the other side of the neighborhood into the sky and it’s gone and strangely so did the second aircraft left shortly after. I want say during the time I spotted the first aircraft to when I saw both of the departure of the aircrafts, It’s probably appro! ximately close to 15 minuets maybe a little more? I did called! a dispa tcher at around 9:00 pm and she was kind enough to stay on the line with me while all that was going on until an officer came by, but he came a little too late to help witness what i’be seen. And sadly I truly thought I have proof of a video I took on my phone before contacting the dispatcher but I didn’t have it. I must of have miss record and was in utter shock when I couldn’t find it. And in all honesty, this is truly my first experience and I feel overwhelmed by this experience. I like to say really that I DONT want to experience something like this ever again. But I know what I know now and that’s enough for me. I just hope that least there was somebody else that have must of seen it too and have some type of footage maybe or at least seen it. I sound like a total nut case bc I didn’t have what I was asked of but left what I have to tell.
