Multiple people on the I-90 in Spokane Valley, Washington witnessed a stationary flying object. Depending on the angle, it looked rocketship-shaped or cylindrical with a dome top. It was visible and didn't move for about 20 minutes while we drove down I-90. Don't know how long it has been visible. It must be pretty large to be visible for so long and from different angles. At one point there may have been a flashing light from the base of the object.

I was with a group of friends barbecuing just after 5pm yesterday evening. i was walking out into the open area because my friend was pointing to something in the sky. We then saw a small object flying dangerously close to a commercial airline. It looked to be metalic and spherical. The event lasted long enough for me to call out additional friends to see it as well. We did not get a picture of the event, however, i did snap a picture of a strange chemtrail left in the area of the event. Note that the craft was actually moving perpendicular to this trail though.

I was driving on route 6 to Seneca Illinois early in the morning, 2:34 AM, as I came around a turn I noticed the sky to my left was lit bright. I could immediately see bright lights flashing and rotating out in the corn field approx. .5 mile from the road. Instantly this terrified me. I could see the object, large in nature was rising above the tree line in the field. It was huge, about the size of a 2 story house. It appeared to be silent, but the lights were very bright.

Sitting outside looking east I see a small line of 3-4 orbs very dull that looked to be connected by a faint line. They were moving slower than a meteor but much faster than any satellite I’ve seen. The ufo moved from east to north and seemed to cross through the Big Dipper. They were quite large and dull orbs much larger than anything else in the sky. I was able to track it with my eyes. I looked to see if any Star link passed above after reading your page, but I couldn’t find any reason to believe that was them. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Possible]

Typical outside, fresh air break and on a vastly clear nighttime sky looking in a mostly E - S.E. direction and -flash!- once...trailed off. -flash!- a second one (as it moved to the east) and then a third, final -flash!- * -flash!- being like a bright, soft white oval, almost cotton tail rabbit like and although there were three separate pings I feel that only one craft was involved here. *the entire time the UAP flew to the east it did not change its seemingly linear trajectory and then vanished

I'll start with the background of the observer. I've always been a skeptic when it comes to UFOs especially since a lot of the time when I hear about sightings in my area drugs or alcohol were involved and I assume the witnesses saw an airplane as I do live near an airport. However, last night I was staring out my window after hearing a couple of loud cars drive past (I have an interest in cars and was curious to see if I could see what they were). There wasn't much to see as I live in the city and it was cloudy but that made the dark isosceles triangle I saw in the sky stand out even more. Somewhere around 9:50 PM I noticed a triangle that seemed to have a faint glowing white outline just hovering still in the air. Around the same time, my phone restarted on its own as well as the motion-sensing lights in my backyard had flickered twice. After the second flicker, the shape was gone. If it weren't for the sudden issues with my electronics I would have tried to come up with a more rational explanation of what I saw but I can't come up with anything. Airplanes tend to fly that low here, but not when it's cloudy and they definitely don't hover.

My neighbors and their daughter was sitting on our porch talking. Ironically, I always like to ask people if they believe in UFO's which i did and of course that started our neighborly debate. Roughly 1-3 minutes later we heard what was similar to a turbo'ed diesel engine. His wife looked at me and said what is that? Her husband turned and looked up the street waiting for a vehicle to speed down the hill. Their daughter went out on the sidewalk and said, well Bob, it looks like you might be right about UFO's. At that point we all ran down onto the sidewalk and saw a square object fly about 100'-150' over our house. The square object had lights in each corner of the square, with 3 of the lights being white, one being red. The square object seemed to fly with one of the corners being in the front. It did not fly with the flat side. My wife looked at her airplane app that tells what planes are in the sky and there wasn't any planes showing. The thing that bugs me the most is, four adults saw this, all of which had cell phones in their hand or pocket and we all just frozen and watch this object fly by. NOTES: As I thought about this all day, the only logical explanation I can think of is that the turbo engine sound we heard was a gas power drone taking off because we heard it and as the object flew over us, it was silent. However, this object was much larger than any civilian drone.

Lights flashing, white and red. no sound. Attached video is one of a few visits we had that night. There was also other signs of paranormal activity. Many organized single lights moving at same time with other lights. As the lights descend, (you can see a glow behind the light if focused on it long enough to pick up the details), there's a breeze that is created, then the trees start to straighten out, stretch to the sky, like a form of ani-gravity being created.

I was taking a break from making planters at my friend's house on her back porch when I decided to take a break. Looking out and at the sky over my friends yard, I noticed what I thought was a strange, shaped bright cloud. It looked to be less than a mile away. I watched it for about 5 minutes and not seeing it dissipate, and because there were no other clouds this day, it didn't make sense to see this one. I called out to my friend, to have her look to see what she thought it might be. We could see it but we couldn't make out anything but a bright light. We walked to the end of her yard at her fenceline, about an acre sized yard, then I ran to get the binoculars so we could see it better. Looking through the binoculars I saw this white object with pink and blue lights encasing it. Like a halo around it. It appeared to be hovering, and moving away very slowly in the sky and was tilted about 20-30° angle towards the left the whole time we saw it. We called out for her roommate to see what he thought it might be and so he wouldnt think we were crazy. This was probably 10 minutes after I first saw it. We took turns watching this through the binoculars. At one point I was looking through them, for a split second I saw a ball of light appear to go into this white object and then I saw it disappeared and the shape of the object was visible again.. I grabbed my phone at my friend's suggestion and took a picture at 8:02pm. At about 8:05pm we thought we would try to get closer for a better picture, so we got in her car and drove down the road, but didn't see it from there so after a vpl of minutes looking in that direction, we gave up drove back to her house and looked in the same area, but we couldn't see it anymore. No sound that we could hear, no trails left like a plane, as we did see a few off to the left that had left trails that lasted only seconds. It was a warm day. This was not a plane, nor anything we've ever seen before. It moved very slow and methodically in the sky. Visible to the eye with much better details through the binoculars. What prompted me to make a report, a few days later I read about cow mutilations in the counties nearby. [NUFORC annotation: Contrail - Possible]

I was unaware of the detail in the photograph until I loaded it on my computer and viewed it in Adobe Lightroom. The greenish object stood out as an oddity to me. Enlargement of the image gave a little more detail, but as with many pictures like this it leave a great deal to the imagination. There were no other lights associated with it, no sound or any indication of aircraft in the area. I'm a retired design engineer, and an avid photographer, but in this instance was taking a quick shot of the sky to fulfill a photochallenge for a group I post to on a weekly basis. I am not prone to wild flights of the imagination, and am certainly not an attention hound, in fact I was a little reticent about filing this report, but thought you might be able to interested in it. I've not contacted anyone else about this and only published it to the photogroup 52 Frames. [NUFORC annotation: Camera Anomaly - Probable]

Stanley, NM
Driving north on highway 285, a reflection of sunlight caught my eye, except it was coming from the north instead of the direction of the sun. I looked up and saw a very unfamiliar sight. The reflection was coming from what sort of looked like a flock of birds similar to how starlings could move (fluid but creating beautiful patterns while flying roughly in the same area). So I first thought they must be some sort of bird flock that looks very white and could possibly reflect sunlight, but I’m not sure of any birds that fit that description and this was very high in the sky. I continued to watch it move around and continued on. Two other things to note, cell service dropped off right before I saw the thing and there were other cars there, just traveling south. When I looked back in my mirror, I could not see the thing anymore. The observer is a college graduate with no history of observing anything like this and is aware of how crazy this sounds.

Largo, FL
I was walking my dog along the west side of Seminole Lake in Largo Florida. It was approximately 12:45 in the morning when I looked to the west towards the condominiums. I observed flying from south to north a chevron/boomerang shaped craft. The craft had I believe 4-5 round white lights on it that were not very bright. The craft seemed to look almost transparent as it traveled north. If I’m looking at the roof of the building the craft was about four finger lengths above the roof line. It was hard to say how high the craft was, but close enough to make out the shape and size which was pretty big. The craft as it was traveling north almost appeared to be canting to its left. To me it appeared as of the craft had appeared out of nowhere. The craft appeared to be in and out of cloaking. As I was attempting to get out my phone to record the craft it faded out as it traveled north behind trees. I was hoping I could pick it back up as it traveled north. I immediately called my wife and told her, then called my friend to share my sighting.

Ardmore, OK
I didn’t see this but heard it outside and found the community discussing it the next morning on Facebook. Many people in town saw the object and there is video of it posted on a community member’s Facebook page. This object sounded like a jet, it was loud and hovered in the area for 15-30 minutes. It’s round, hovered and moved around, sped up, slowed down, all over the western edge of Ardmore. There are two rings of light on the object, it spun on its side then disappeared from the view of Ardmorites. I’m estimating that over 30 people saw the object and many more heard it outside, but didn’t go to investigate as it appeared after midnight.

Bright orange object floating in far distance for 1 to 2 minute. Thought it was a planet at first, but the color seemed to be unique. It became larger and larger very very quickly - sustained in air for a 1 minute. Moved sideways very slowly until it could no longer be seen. Way too high up, too bright, and it moved way too quickly to be a drone.

I observed the object for fifteen minutes. It hovered in the same spot most of the time, but it briefly went further away a couple of times but then quickly came back to the original observed spot. During the fifteen minutes I saw a small red dot fly towards it, but I couldn't get that object seen on my smartphone. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Possible]

I was with my friend in the backyard looking at the sky one of our favorite things to do. We saw what looked like a plane towing another plane but was connected. We thought maybe it was a blimp but I dont know why there would be a blimp near where I live and it would have been on the news. It was very big and kinda low to the ground and made no sound. There were lights on the front and back. The shape was a chevron but connected.

On April 20, 2023 I was in my backyard with my mom and we saw what first appeared to be a plastic bag floating in the air above us. However it was large and very high up in the sky. For a moment we thought it was a spy balloon but it moved in a very strange way and was shaped more like a jellyfish. We watched while a 2nd object flew in extremely fast right above my head and they both moved to the same area of sky. Both objects stayed above my house for 10+minutes moving, twisting, almost dancing around. One was shaped like a worm and was doing flips almost. We watched both for over 10 minutes and have video and images. While reviewing the videos we noticed there appears to be multiple other objects flying it at different rates and speeds throughout the event. Small black shapes coming from one of the objects. At another point they sort of “glitch” and pull away from each other. They also appear to have a glow around them. After about 10-12 minutes they both just went away, slowly. We noticed our Ring camera stopped working during that time even though we were moving around the yard constantly to watch. We have never been able to find a place to report our sighting until this website which is why there is a delay in reporting. Not sure if these were organic but they definitely were unidentified and flying objects. I will upload photos but hold off on sending my videos unless someone contacts me and wants to know further info. Thank you.

Ware, MA
3 adults, 1 child witnessed a UFO one afternoon while driving home after running errands. An adult in the backseat first noticed this & brought it to driver/passenger's attention. Driver pulled the vehicle over in a safe spot to better view the unknown object. This was certainly not an airplane, or other familiar aircraft. Shaped like a cigar, it was white in color, made no noise at all, had no jetstream, and we attempted to get photos & video, which came out poorly, due to inexpensive cellphones & object being a great distance away. We were able to watch this for awhile before it seemingly faded away, disappeared then reappeared in a different part of the sky. It was very bizarre. This happened not far from Janine's in Ware, MA.

Crafts had no wings and made no sound and no visible propulsion. I seen one pass through then a minute or two later in the same exact spot I seen another but the second one was a little smaller. Daytime. The two videos sent are the sane craft. I didn’t catch the second one on camera. [NUFORC annotation: Aircraft - Certain]
