Fort worth, TX
I was in my backyard checking whatever turned to look into the night sky and see a light blue what I thought was a comet falling from the sky. It started turning and dimmed down to an orb. I believed it was a aircraft possibly but others flew past it with its lights on and this didn't have any besides glowing one color. I was a watch stander in the Navy and seen enough night time flights to know a plane and heli.

Gloucester, MA
Saw craft at 3500 feet heading west. It was flying underneath a Delta jet which was at 4000 feet headed to Logan airport to land. Craft moved westerly for about 90 seconds on pace with the jet then disappeared for 30 seconds only to reappear streaking north at a very great rate of speed and disappear

Corvallis, OR
The Object is as big as a small plane. Broke through the clouds for at least 15 seconds and entered more clouds. The color was black, no lights or sound and was flying at a high rate of speed, the shape was a sharp Triangle! Over the city of Corvallis, OR.

One large object came in from the north very rapidly slowing down above my building. Three smaller craft separated themselves from the bigger one. One actually came down to the street level just up from my building it was scary as hell! This was right near NORAD.

Probable conventionalNew York-Boulder, CO
I was traveling from New York to Boulder Colorado the night of April 2nd. The plane got up in the sky and I looked out the window and saw this object but I thought maybe it’s just a reflection of light and didn’t think much of it. I went to sleep and woke up an hour and half later and it was still there but moved to a better place where I could see it. I spend an hour watching it trying to figure out what it was. It was not a plane, not a star or the moon, and then it started to change color to be a red/orange. Near the end of my flight I looked down and then up again and it was gone I couldn’t locate it again. I took images and videos. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Probable]

Just enjoying some nighttime photography when I captured an oval shaped, reddish glowing object with a glowing white trail moving upward at a high rate of speed. There was no sound. If I didn't have the photo I wouldn't believe it either. The photo I provide is original and unedited.

April 2, 2023 Multiple UFO's Flying And Hovering West Hempstead NY Time: 8pm While I Was Watching Them( UFO'S), They Were Watching Me Very Mind Blowing And Can't Sleep Nor Function Properly At All Since I Have Seen What I Saw. What Is Going On? And What Is The Government Or Military Or Anyone Somebody Is Doing About This Situation To Keep The Public Safe?, Especially Me And My Family Safety Cause While I Was Watching Them(UFO's), They Was Watching Me Right In My Face And I Didn't Even know This At All Nor Did I See Them At First Until I Reviewed Footage I Have. They (UFO's) Didn't Come Just One Night, They (UFO's) Continue To Come Every Night Until Present Time. Me Nor My Family Feels Safe And That's Not Good At All Very Disturb By What I Sighted. Okay, Now I Believe I Caught Some Kind Of Arrival Or Something. It Was Multiple UFO's Space Crafts And The Sky Was Very Dark ,But The Sky Looked Lit Up And Changing Colors Bright In The Background When It Was night. I Was So Shocked Cause I Knew That Sound, I Was Hearing For A Very Long Time, Was Not A Plane Nor Was It A Drone. When I Heard Them ( UFO's} Coming, I Jumped Out My Bed And Looked Out My Window And I Saw The First UFO At Or Around 8pm. It Was Round With Multiple Colors Underneath It And With Multiple Lights Going All Around It. The UFO's Was A Circle Shape Round, It Was Moving Slow Motion, But Kind Of Fast Cause It Flew Over My House Coming From The West Direction Heading East Direction Very Low Below The Night Clouds And The UFO's Were Flying Towards A Bright Light That Was In The Middle Of The Sky, Lit Like It Was The North Star, But Instead The Bright Light Was in the South Direction. I Was Looking At Them (UFO's). Then I Saw The Second UFO Following Behind The First One, Less Then A Minute Apart And Then The Third One I Saw, By Then After Seeing The Third One, I Ran Upstairs And Started Taking Footage. They Flew Into The Night Clouds And Started Hovering, Forming A Pattern While In The Sky Clouds. They Would Glow Like A Light Bulb, Then Fade Out Slowly And Then Pop Right Back Bright Again Or Slowly Bright Back Up. There Is Footage Of The Sky Background Changing Colors And Multiple UFO's. There Is Footage Of A Being's With Some Kind Of Weapon, On Top Of My House Roof In The Back Of My House Watching Me, I Had No Knowledge Of It At The Time I Was Recording The Footage. There Is Also Footage Of A Being Finger Or Arm Whatever It Was, It Looked Like ( The Movie E.T ) Finger, It Was Moving And Directing A Very Tiny Light ,That Was Moving In The Direction ( The Being) Wanted It Too. That Tiny Light The Being Was Controlling, The Being Directed That Tiny Light In My Face While That Being Was Right Above My Head Or Right Next To Me, On My House Front Roof Without Me Having No Awareness Of It's Presence At All I Didn't See It At The Time I Was Recording The Footage From My Upstairs Window Until I Reviewed My Footage. It's Both Very Mind Boggling And Boggling At The Same Time Cause I Can't Stop Thinking If I Caught By Accident, The Being's Trying To Possible Abduction Me And Yes I'm Very Afraid Yes And My Family. Give Thanks In Advance For Taking Time Out To View My Story .

IdentifiedFairforest, SC
Photos and video were captured on Sunday April 2, 2023. Location Fairforest, SC, around 30 4:30 pm. There were two cylindrical white objects traveling (NNW) together but staggered. I was only able to capture the one in the back. They were perhaps 4,000 feet high and traveling at a fairly slow speed. They were absolutely quiet, had no visible means of propulsion, no vapor trails or contrails, and no visible wings. I was commenting while videoing and my sister witnessed them too.

Saw a reflection in a mirror. Looked out the window and saw a silver sphere/ball gliding in the sky. At first I thought it was a plane due to altitude but it was moving slow enough for me to get a really good look. Definately a ball shaped sphere, completely silver gliding across sky. Then I thought it might be a balloon but again, altitude was way to high. No clouds in the sky and little to no wind. It is a very sunny clear day today. Wow!! [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Possible]

Warsaw, MO
A low-flying helicopter, maybe 250ft off the ground, circled around several times south of my house about half a mile. Not more than a couple of minutes later, I heard an army jet of some kind overhead. I looked and after seeing 2 strange jet streams that were very short and tightly curved and quickly dissipated, I saw an A10 Warthog make about three circles, the last of which crossed over my property, West to East. As the A10 flew over me West to East, I saw around ten silent objects fly by in formation behind my house and disappear into the tree-line. I grabbed my phone so that I could video them when they emerged on the other side of the tree-line, but they never did. I have limited observational experience, but I fly drones, so I'll do my best. The objects had a brown body and black wings. At first, I thought it was a flock of birds. But they were big for birds, as big or bigger than birds of prey, such as eagles. And that's assuming they were close by, maybe a few hundred yards away flying over the cove. And I've never seen birds of prey fly in formation like thes were, nor in a flock. Then the sun glinted off of one of them, so I figured they were metallic. Also, they flew by horizontally, yet their wings were perfectly vertical, which would give them no lift. Again, they were perfectly silent. My best guess for size and distance is that they flew over our cove in Lake of the Ozarks at approximately 150 ft AGL, possibly with bodies the size of basketballs or beach balls and wingspans of maybe 4 to 8 feet. That is my best guess, sorry I can't be more exact. They had a slight bobbing motion as they flew by. I saw them for the span of only a few seconds and possibly 500 horizontal feet. I estimate their speed at 50 to 75 mph. I live about 40 miles from Whiteman Air Force base and about 60 miles from Fort Leonardwood as the crow flies. With the fact that these objects were preceded by other military air support, possibly scouting for them, I wonder if they were some type of experimental drone that the military is testing. But they didn't exhibit the properties of typical modern aircraft, so I am reporting it here.

I thought is might be a mylar balloon, as it looked like it reflected light. It was flashing blue, non sequentially. It was grey, then blue and then transparent.

I was driving home from work on interstate 695 heading towards Towson at about 1150 at night I saw lights in the sky after watching for several seconds I grabbed my phone and videoed for over a minute. Hard to tell what shape but orbs of light floating all around, no change in color. Can’t figure out how to upload the video on here. I would be open to talking to an investigator just to show them the video or discuss the sighting via email but only through email

New Hartford, IA
I looked out my west 2nd story window around 9 PM and saw an object between the tree branches near my house. It was moving left and right and a little circular, and I thought that was odd. As I looked closer, it didn’t resemble an aircraft. It was very large, very bright and I called down to my husband. He was skeptical but not after he saw it. He ran right downstairs and didn’t answer when I called him back. I found him in the backyard staring up at it. It was fairly low on the sky and large. It looked kind of star shaped with red and occasionally blue or white lights I watched with him and ran back in to get my camera

Honolulu, HI
Walking down the dark walkway extended into the ocean we immediately noted 5 blue orb like objects flying almost what looked to be in a formation. No sound was heard. Seems to be fairly distant. Intially thought they were stars but noted they were all rapidly moving away from the island and westward as the first 2 slowly dimmed as if they were flying away from the island. What also caught our attention what the 3rd and 4th objects rapidly dropped and regained altitude and approached each other while following the first 2 and the 5th following behind without changes in its altitude. Initially none of them changed their flight allttiude and seemed to go straight across the sky. The colour a light blue for all 5 and very bright and gradually dimmed as they made their way southwest. We saw multiple aircraft taking off and landing from Honolulu airport- they all had beacons and very bright lights when approaching the airport or taking off, none of which looked like these objects. These objects did not flicker like flares.

… First thought was a comet… No tail. Then spotted white blink before it fell behind a tree. Next thought possible plane crashing, coming in way to fast and sharp angle nowhere near airport.

Castle Dale, UT
Saw semi amber colored lights individually in the low horizon maybe 20 miles to the Northeast. They moved slowly then disappeared then reappeared. Roughly 8 different objects round dots as if a star, no twinkling or blinking. None were in formation. Several were stacked. Co worker on my graveyard shift saw the exact same thing when I told him where to look beyond the Hunter Power Plant. I checked flight radar for airplanes and none were in the vicinity within 100 miles at least.

The cube-like craft was the size of a medium sized bus. It was rectangular in shape and glistened, as if, it had a reflective and protective layer on the outside. It continued to glide in a southeastern direction and disappeared a minute later.

Brea, CA
It was 8 pm I parked my car the sun was still out . Me and my 3 year old were walking towards our apartment and I noticed a large oval shape thing on the tree I thought what is that let get closer I’m sure it’ll be more clear whatever that is. I got closer and it didn’t make sense all it was was like an opaque oval up against the tree it was neither shiny nor translucent it was a dull gray metal oval . I’m catholic and I had my son so I said nope let’s get inside and I started to pray Our Lord’s Prayer as we turned the corner and continued to the apartment we were asked on past our window and it was like I startled a tall shadowy figure I said Omg come on Noel let’s get inside ! I told my boyfriend as soon as we got inside I literally did not make the connection all I said to my bf was I think I just startled a ghost that was looking into our window and he laughed then I told him about the odd shape thing in the tree and I asked him if he would come outside with me to make sense of hat it was he said why didn’t I record it I guess I went into flight mode . He also didn’t believe me I’m still scared and can’t seem to make sense only conclusion I came up with is that shadowy figure came from that craft why was it looking into our window idk idk this sounds crazy
