We saw a green bright light fly towards the earth. May have been on fire. Lasted for less than a minute but was falling and could still see the green as it fell behind trees.

Bloomfield, NY
I was walking my dog and as I turned to face due south, I noticed a single bright light moving from east to west traveling at a perceived high rate of speed. It traveled in a flat/level trajectory across the sky. As it moved further west the light dimmed and at approximately due southwest - 45 degrees from when I first spotted the light, it was no longer visible. The entire incident lasted only an estimated 3 seconds. There was absolutely no sound detected before, during or after this viewing.

At first, my (5 yo) son thought there was a shooting star. We looked up and we saw a formation of lights shooting across the sky. There were 10-12 bright lights moving within an oval shape across the sky. It was moving in the direction of the beach.

Nageezi, NM
On Aug. 25th, 2017, at approximately 8:30 PM my wife and I were looking forward to getting to a location where we could get settled in for the night. We were riding in our 37 foot Diesel Pusher at a speed of about 60 miles per hour, slightly downhill, travelling Southeast on highway 550, and a few miles south of Napeezi, New Mexico. We had been talking about how the roads had changed 2 lanes to 4 lanes since the last time I had driven. Out of nowhere I saw a light flash in front of me, it had come from my left. I instinctively looked to my left and I saw 2 creatures setting about 2 foot apart, very bright craft which was at my eye level while setting in the Motorhome. I instantly seemed to take a mind picture of what I was seeing. At that time we were maybe 80 feet and gaining on their position. My first thought was is this real, the closer we got the more positive I was that what I was seeing was real when I made eye contact. Some points I saw was; The craft did not appear to have a windshield. The panel in behind the creatures gave off a very bright light, as did the floor and ceiling. It was as bright as a operating room under full lighting. There was as small stem that came up from the floor in front of the creatures. It stood about 40 inches out of the floor. It seemed to support a small control panel that was thinner the a carton of cigarettes. The guy on my left had his gopher looking hand resting on it. The moment I saw them, the individuals were looking down the road as if looking for something to arrive. There was a truck coming up the hill toward us and about a 1/8th of a mile away. The craft seemed to swing and rotate from the shoulder on the other side to a lane away was at my side and maybe 20 foot away. Once they rotated enough that their faces was 180% to us, he saw us and disappeared. As we drove on down the hill I looked in my mirrors and side camera and didn’t see anything related to them after that. A description of the creatures we witnessed: Both individuals had a skin tone about the same as mine, I’m a white male. They had large heads in a upside down teardrop shape, very large black eyes, a small mouth and 2 small holes for a nose. There were holes for the ears but only a nub for ears. Very much like the drawing you would see in Roswell, accept not green, but green uniforms. The one on the right had a very smooth face. The one on the left appeared to be older with facial lines. The one on my Left wrinkled his right side of his mouth when he saw me, but they were talking when we interrupted them. I made eye contact with the one on my left and looked directly into his large black eye. His eye was the finest surface I had ever seen. The eye had no abrasions or scratches , no dust or mucus. I noticed that under the surface of this perfectly clear outer surface of the eye was a grid of many individual eyes, like a Fly’s Eye’s but much smoother super fine glass surface. Their bodies where skinny and were illuminated with a greenish glowing uniform. Also there was roll type cuffs that also glowed, but was a beige. They reminded me of stick people. The arms and the torso were slender and about the diameter of a very small child of 6 or 7 years of age. The hands reminded me of the shape of gophers. But these creatures are large in height and reach, that hand appeared to me to be a lethal weapon. Their torso was long and skinny and appeared to be weak if depended on. But I believe the suit they wear is their body strength. The back wall is very hard to explain because I believe however they traveled was behind that wall. The wall was very brightly illuminated. It appeared to be divided into about 18 inch cubes but wasn’t, it was a flat surface. The light seemed to be boiling along the edges of each panel in the colors of light greenish, blue, violet. But the power heaved with its changes it seemed. The back panel was incredibly beautiful and something I’ll never forget it. We could not see the outer body of the craft because we were looking into very bright light. As for hearing anything, I felt I heard them communicating when we approached

Nageezi, NM
In the early evening, approximately 8:30 p.m. on August 27th (sic. August 25th), 2017, my husband and I were driving down Hwy 550 in New Mexico. We were close to Nageezi, looking for a place to park for the evening. As we passed a section of the Hwy, as I was talking to my husband, he was driving, I could see that to the left side of the road a bright white light caught my attention. It appeared that there were two strangers inside of a bright "bubble" type craft, sitting facing each other; but as we drove by they looked directly at me. Because I was sitting in the passenger's seat, I could only see a small amount of the craft. I was definitely shocked. I waited a couple of minutes, and then asked my husband, "Did you just see that?"

A metallic oval shaped object with white light slowly moved between two cloud banks it moved down about five hundred feet then it went slightly faster horizontally about two thousand feet north then slowly up about five to eight hundred feet and disappeared behind thick clouds shortly after that two jets went through the same area and continued on east looked like commercial aircraft after replaying event over and over I can't explain craft movements very confusing still a little freaked out by the whole thing

Walked out of house and looked up and saw a blue bright light with a glow behind it flying fast, downward motion, as if it was landing. Then a few minutes later on the opposite side. It was another object flying with a white light quietly flying by slowly. Did not look like a plane.

Turlock, CA
I awoke at about 4:00 a.m. ( Aug – 25 ) and knew I couldn’t go back to sleep, so I got up and decided to read and perhaps grab a smoke out side, which is what I did. At 4:30 a.m., I went outside and began to smoke, and as usual, I face north and star gaze and it was very clear, a little fire smoke haze but nothing bad. An airliner was crossing the sky from W-NW to E-SE and was north of my location, I enjoyed the stars as it headed to the Eastern horizon and I turned my head to look toward the western part of the sky for several seconds and turned my head back facing northerly again and saw a very bright satellite slightly north east of my location and headed the same path as the airliner, but the opposite direction. It surprised me I hadn’t seen the hint of the satellite before I turned my head away, it was very bright and I watched it for ~ 10 seconds, and it began to fade in brightness, as is typical. I took my eye’s off of it to smoke and quickly decided it might flare up again, so I decided to attempt to quickly find it again, so I followed the path I had just seen, and saw a very dim satellite, slightly more north of the assumed path. Here my brain is thinking how the satellite jumped off the straight line path if it was the same satellite, but very quickly, I notice this satellite is in a medium size turn, and not traveling straight. I thought that this thing was going to head north now in view of this turn, (the turn can be best described as less then ¼ the circumference of a dinner plate at arm's length), and then the most fascinating thing happened, this very dim satellite brightened up and did what athletes call “the button hook“ maneuver… it accelerated rapidly in a very tight turn and shot back the direction in which it had come from. I wondered if it was going to trail that airliner. This was no jet or satellite, this craft was moving at an astonishing speed at the end, and I will surely keep a closer watch on satellites from now on. Are ufo’s now mimicking satellites so as to be less noticeable, it sure seems like it to me. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

This was the same as a few years back, different location. Multiple lights, yellowish/white slowly flashing on and off, then disappearing, then reappearing. Lights were in a slightly curved line. This time it must have been something because there was a jet, probably from Alamogordo, that flew around where the lights were. I was looking to the N/E from Mesilla towards Elks Dr.

I was headed east on Highway 74 (Florida Ave.) to pick up my daughter from Heritage High School. I first thought this object to be jet aircraft that was extremely low. I live near March Air Force Base, so I believed it to be preparing for landing. Changed my mind when realizing it was way too low for that to happen safely. It appeared to be heading in a northwesterly direction. Then the object seemed to stop and rest on the top ridge of a small hill. I picked up my daughter at this point and told her what I saw. While it was moving it had 3 white lights. 2 on the ends and the middle one was much bigger and extremely bright. The middle light seemed to fluctuate like a flare or welder’s arc. While the object was stopped there were only 2 lights visible. This is what my daughter saw as well. I drove closer and saw 2 other people in their car that saw the 2 light configuration, but not the 3 floating/flying lights. I dropped my daughter off at home and went to a high point to see if any action was visible. I could only see one light on the ridge but to the right was a blinking light moving back and forth. Looked like it could have been movement similar to a helicopter, but it moved too quickly to be so. Hope to see if anyone reports something similar.

Fitchburg, MA
My friend and I saw a circle very very high in the night sky come from one of the planet stars. I believe it was circular however, it was high up and dark so unsure. The light was a single light and got as bright as a star then would shut off. Then after a few minutes, it would shine again. The object would sparatcly light up and turn off. The object also sparatcly changed the light which came from it. It was moving slow. Much too slow for a plane. Then just vanished after about 5 minutes.

I know it seems difficult to believe, but I know what I saw and I have 20/15 vision perfectly health adult male, no substance use not even alcohol. What I saw was a completely silent translucent triangular craft with bright white orb of light in center, flying from north to south. It was broad daylight and it was flying quite low, i'd estimate about only several thousands feet above ground. It was truly amazing, I wish i knew what this was and what civilization this originates from or what type of military experimental craft this is! (( Date was flawed. We do not know the year of the alleged event. Witness elects to remain anonmyous; provides no contact information.

North Myrtle Beach, SC
The event occurred on the deck off porch of home on beach near cross streets North Ocean Blvd and 39th Ave N. The sighting started with a small red orange orb in the sky north over the ocean beyond the Fishing Pier close to 60th Ave North. The orb grew in size and it move parallel to the Pier back toward the beach. Once the orb was over the beach north of the pier and noticeably moving south toward us (Three People). The orb became larger as it moved south down the beach towards us. It was quiet and moved smoothly alone the beach. As it approached 44th avenue we could see it was not an orb. We could now see that it was two orb shapes connected by a small triangular part. It remained the same red orange color as it approached and passed over us. It never made any sound but was about 500 ft off the ground when it passed over us. As it passed you could see that the two orb shapes were more like engines on an airplane, but glowing red orange and it was one machine with a triangular shaped body in the middle. Once we could see it looked like a machine and quiet, we were in shock. Our minds were focused on figuring out what it was. We all three agreed as it approached to would a unidentified flying object. The shock peaked as it pass silently over us. We all three expressed shock. We watched! it move south down the beach for approximately a mile and then turn to move out over the ocean. We could see it until it was located out beyond the Cherry Grove Fishing Pier and very distant out at sea and finally disappeared. Two of us had see other unidentified objects (orbs only) directly out in the ocean beyond that same deck four nights in a row after the solar eclipse. I’ll make a separate report on those sightings since they were different events.
