Lansford, PA
I then called for my mother who she verified the same shape and colors. Prior to informing my mom she was on her phone watching a you tube Visio when my mom mention her phone went wacky with interference she stated that it sounded ver muffled and people were talking very fast. Mom thought this was strange, until she thinks the UFO might have had something to do with the interferance. We watched this for about an hour until it slowly moved farther into the night and just disappeared into no where.

Treasure Island, FL
Suddenly, all lights turned out and the giant white light turned directly at us and you could follow the path of light straight out from our beach house. It got even brighter and then disappeared for about 30 seconds. At this time, my cat ran out of my house and down onto the beach and was fixated on the lights. All the lights came back on, but this time they were vertically stacked like a tower and moving all over. Instantly, my cat ran very quickly back into the house and under a bed. A few minutes later, the lights turned out again and this time about 20 seconds later, turned back on but they had moved from where they were and now sat about a mile to the south of where they just were 20 seconds earlier. We reported it on the non emergency line of treasure island police dept. 2 officers responded and drove on the beach. They stopped immediately when they saw it and called me back to inform me that they see it, and aren't sure what it may be. They said the coast guard does training off shore sometimes but they normally are made aware in advance so they can field calls, like the call I made. The officer stated that they had not been made aware of any training exercise tonight and would try and figure out what it is. All of a sudden, the entire object and lights vanished. Not a trace in sight. As soon as they disappeared, both officers immediately turned their vehicles around and left the area and wouldn't stop to talk to my husband, who tried waving them down. Something very strange just happened, and no one seems to know exactly what this was.

Buffalo, NY
My 2 friends and I saw them at first and thought it was a plane, but then we see the lights flashing slowly and extremely bright. Then we saw another. It would randomly move location after a few flashes maybe 20 seconds apart. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Hillview/Shepherdsville, KY
we were in the Hillview neighborhood off of Preston Highway, when we observed a fireball in the sky that seemed to explode, and another fireball shot off in a westerly direction, and then faded off and the main fireball continued on a southerly path, hovering over southern Preston Highway, heading towards Shepherdsville. It was just below the clouds, moving at the speed of a small plane and it seemed to drip Balls of Fire towards the ground sometimes several smaller balls of fire at a time and it continued on for a distance and then more balls of fire would seem to drip off of it, this happened four five times before finally disappeared into the clouds as it continued South towards Shepherdsville, Kentucky. Can't seem to explain it. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he seemed to us to be quite sober-minded, and sincere about his report. We strongly suspect that he is a good, and reliable, witness. PD

Bozeman, MT
I am just now submitting a report I witnessed about a month ago. This happened at some point during August 20-24. I am an adult female living in Bozeman, Montana. Around 8:30 or 9:00 p.m., I walked outside onto my 3rd story balcony, and it wasn't long before something in the sky captured my attention. Flying from west to north, I believed it was a satellite. Then, I noticed as the object abruptly changed direction going east. Now, this is when I began watching it more closely. It seemed as if it was in the atmosphere, it was flying at a slower speed than an airplane would be, and I could see in the distance the object had red and white lights. Suddenly, I see another object just like the first one, coming from the same direction, west. The first object, still flying east at this time, then turns around and goes toward the second flying object! The two flying objects are now coming towards each other. When they cross paths, the two objects STOP completely in mid flight! They lined up perfectly(one on top of the other) and each emitted a bright, red-orange light that looked like two huge balls of light. Only for about two or three seconds did that last, and they continued flying in the opposite direction. The first one flew southwest, and out of my view (behind my apartment building), and I continued to watch the second object fly east, along the moutian tops in the distance and then began flying directly north, away from my view. This is when the first object ended up flying directly overhead and I could get a look at it. Like I said, it was flying in the atmosphere, so it was as low as a plane or a helicopter might be. But, all I could see were lights, no aircraft. As if it were invisible. On what would be the underside of the craft had red lights in the shape of two rectangles overlapping and fading in and out with the white circular lights on the sides. I watched the two mysterious flying objects until they were totally out of sight. This ran the course of about 15 to 20 minutes. My assessment of the situation is they were maybe on some sort of "scouting" mission, because of the way they flew in opposite directions. Then they "linked up", as to share data, and continued in different ways. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Corona, CA
Yesterday 6 of silver light objects very slow were flying in the blue sky over Corona and Riverside border. One of the objects was bigger. No sound. They were shiny or disappearing sometimes. All of them were spinning slow and fast, different speed and side. Started from flying low to very high but very slow. Just like yesterday. They were coming close to each other and away. They made a formation of 4 of them like straight line. Then they gone up to the sky slow. By the way, just after they gone, the fire started in that area, but maybe just coincident. Or maybe they were trying to point on the area where fire should start...?

I was filming some clouds and noticed the ‘object’ when I was watching it later. I was no where near glass or windows- way out to n the lot. I don’t know, it’s probably some bird, but I thought I’d send it in.

New Lenox, IL
I was driving down I-80 west bound towards the New Lenox exit. I saw a light come down from the sky towards the ground but not fast like a meteor. The light was so visible that all the cars and trucks around me hit their brakes to watch this thing land come down. I knew I was not the only one to see this. I think it landed somewhere south of Rt 30 East of Exit 137 off of I-80. Quite impressed by this I never reported something of this nature before. Since I saw everyone else step on their brakes to look at it, I decided to put up a report.

Louisville, KY
I heard a noise like a large machine getting louder and louder, and then I saw an it come right over my house very low on a staight line Northeast to Southwest. It had lots of lights on underside unlike any plane or helicopter I've ever seen. Too slow to be a plane and did not sound like helicopter at all.

Coulee Dam, WA
My wife and I go out on our West-facing deck. She notices a light moving in the dark nighttime sky and points it out to me. It was changing colors, red, green and headlight yellowish. The movement of the light was about three fingers at arm's length, in all directions. Very hard to guess distance, but i would say >5 miles. We watched for about an hour and went in the house. Will watch again on the following night for a possible repeat performance.

I am a medical professional and an amateur pilot. I was letting my dog out and looked up and saw a bright flash of light. I thought initially it was a strobe from a plane, but it was really bright. So bright, it made me stop to see if it would do it again. I tried to predict the path assuming it would be in a straight line as an airplane would fly but it showed up in random locations and distances from its previous location. It seemed to "swoop' from one position to another and would flash at each new position. This happened over 10-15 times moving further away each time over a 3-5 min timeframe. I was facing east at the time of the initial sighting and was facing south at the last point of visual contact. It was an incredible distance to travel so quickly and moved like nothing I had ever seen. At one point a smaller constant light that looked just like a star moved toward the object slowly at one of its stopping points. The bright light immediately moved to a new position further away. I have never submitted or seen anything like this before in my life. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

South Bend, IN
after playing a game on my phone I looked up and the light had moved closer. This caught my attention so I stood up to look a little longer. It was moving south east . thought it was a plane but there were no wing lights or sound. as I watched, I called to my wife to come look at this.. then all of the sudden the yellowish light changed into a a white highlighted arrow shape, it changed patterns a few times, then stayed on the arrow head shape and dissappeared. have never see anything like this ever. as far as my personal background, I'm an artist, and my eyes are trained to see what's there not what I want to see.

The whole thing lasted about 4 mins, and a minute of that it was flying with no lights. The strangest thing is I was trying to film it with my phone but my phone would not record. This might be cause of operator error but I kept hitting the button but it wouldn't start recording till it disappeared.

Sunnyside, WA
Driving on my night route as a medical courier, I took my exit to go into Sunnyside, WA, (exit 69). I noticed a weird white line in the sky. At first I thought it was a cloud break, but the more I kept looking at it I came to realize that it just didn't fit, it was a cloud break. The sun was red (due to all of the smoke from recent fires) and was on the horizon. When I got to my stop, I watched it, and realized it was moving slowly. I then took a picture and video. Youtube link: https://youtu.be/uvi8jPMNKCg The white line was indeed moving very slowly, and eventually faded away. Later on in the night around 10pm around Prosser, WA, I did see some flashing orbs, but can not confirm those because I was driving and could have been a reflection of my van's windows. But it was in the same Northwestern sky. Thank You. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Saw a dark grey saucer shaped craft move in close to a drone that was flying. Then backed away toward the east. Then came back toward the west. It had absolutely no sound or lighting.

My kids and I were watching the eclipse. Taking photos and looking through proper glasses. We made a joke about a ufo that kept showing up in the sky. Moved fast from side to side and up and down. I took about 35 pictures and the object we saw is in each photo it also is in many different spots. The photos themselves were taken from the same area. Facing the same direction. Meanwhile, my 4 dogs where barking and howling much differently then they normally would

Barboursville, WV
We (my wife and I) were watching the Solar Eclipse and noticed a black streak that appeared to originate between the sun and moon. This streak moved from the bottom of the sun to the moon and disappear. I asked my wife just after I saw the event with viewing glasses if she had seen the event, too. She confirmed what I had saw. This object appeared moved rapidly but was noticeable. The object seemed to have wings, or something protruding on each side, and was elongated.

On August 21, 2017, I set up my iPhone to record the solar eclipse. Upon reviewing the footage taken and with a live news feed in the background while recording the solar eclipse at approximately 2:44 pm (14:44) hours with 70% of the solar eclipse in effect two (2) disc/saucer like objects appear in the camera lens' view, heading in a northern direction.
