Kent, OH
Circle shape noticed because it looked like it was on fire or just bright orange. Moved from East to North West. No sound moved for a period of time then stopped. Went to different vantage point and it stopped glowing. Seen through open window in my house then went to my deck outside.

Ellettsville, IN
Was driving to work and saw a shiny silver object in the sky, just above the trees in Ellettsville. Watched the object for about 5 minutes from one stop light to the next and the cylinder shaped object didn't move. I thought it was a plane or maybe a hovercraft, but it stayed perfectly still. I pulled into the parking lot of a local company to take a picture, but then it was just gone. I saw something like it when I was about 15 and my mom and I watched the object, thinking it was a street light because of the shape and brightness, but it was way to high in the sky. When we got to a stopping point over a field, we got out of your vehicle and watched it. My mom told me to get the camera and when I turned around with it, the object changed shape, yup almost a football, changed colors, and shot off in a southern direction so fast it wad gone in a half second.

Ridgewood, NJ
On the morning of Wednesday 9. I was driving to work at approximately 6:53 AM. As I was exiting the highway to go over the overpass. I looked up to the sky way up in front of me and this object caught my eye immediately. It's seem to be about a mile away. I quickly determined that it was not moving. It was not a plane or helicopter or anything I've seen. It was very very still. It wasn't very big. If you held a dime in front of you it looked that big, but mile away. The belly of this object was dark. On the top of the roof of it, I could see the sun reflecting off it. I could tell that the roof of it was metallic. It was shaped like a saucer but more rounded. The strangest thing about it was that it had an orb around the craft. I could see the space between The craft and the black shadowy orb that and in-circled it. I only had about I only had about 100 yards till I had to make my right turn. The rest of my drive to work had trees that blocked my view from further seeing this UFO. I wish I had stopped right away to take a picture. I was mesmerized by this site. I couldn't stop on the overpass anyway and I only had a few more minutes to get to work. It was a really cool sight to see.

Grosse Pointe Farms, MI
I was lying down looking at the stars with a friend when all the sudden a big bright light appeared with a streak behind it going a decent speed but not an insane speed, it was in the sky travelling for about 5 seconds when all the sudden it zoomed away at a speed I didn't think was possible,. Both me and my friend saw it and were immedietely super confused about what it was. The object was about 8 times the size of a star in the sky, the object was very bright and partially illuminated the sky; there was also no sound from the object.

Malibu, CA
To much to list. In person or phone interview would be better,. Malibu CA, 2017. March July to September. I whitnessed many sightings. And my last sighting was a few weeks ago. Several crafts. Are docked under water. They are operating at ate night . The crafts appear to be like fighter jets . But smaller . About the size of a car. They pop out of the water. About 50 yards from the shore. I was standing on the beach one night. I saw several crafts emerge from the surface and fly away. I also say beings around the crafts . Malibu is a strange town . Has many secrets. I could go there on any night. And I could see some type of activity. Not just faint. But real stuff. No b.s. not camre magic. You gotta see in order to believe. The crafts make a loud thumping noise. You can feal the ground vibrating like a train passing by. And they do make the power lines go crazy. You can hear the static electricity on the powerlies from the telephone poles , when they are near.

Rice Lake, WI
Both objects were very slow moving, bright, orange-colored lights, and then disappeared without warning. both came from the West going towards the east. We have seen these lights at different times during the night and daytime several times in the past six months, especially the light is so bright you cannot tell if there is a shape to it, but at times, there's more than one at a time.

Moorland, IA
I live in the country miles from any town. I was just looking up in the sky and saw a circular light that caught my eye because it was moving slow and appeared to slightly zig zag. It had no marker lights just a single white light. It flew over and it didn't go far past me and went straight up and disappeared in about two seconds. I am a 35 year aircraft maintenance technician, and have never seen anything like this.

Kapaa, HI
On August 7, 2017, at 8:49 PM, I was driving in Kapaa, Kauai. The full Moon was out and I saw a very large bright white light nearby it. I pulled over to snap a pic of the full Moon, but the bright object was not in sight when I snapped it. However, when I checked the pic the next day, there was a HUGE pinkish orb just beneath the Full Moon. I have no doubt it is a Galactic Craft.

Glendale, CA
While driving for my doctors appointment in Glendale, California, I decided to exit on Harvey in Glendale and take the side streets. As I was passing 1 or 2 blocks going east of Verdugo Blvd. on Wilson, I happened to look up on the right hand side of my windshield. I was asking myself and wondering why the "lightpost" was very high up in the sky without the post. Not a moment too soon, I saw a silver disk just hovering in front of my sight up in the sky. It was like at a stand still. I gasped and muttered "Oh, my God!" and for all I know, in the blink of an eye, the thing disappeared. It was a UFO. I glanced at my cellphone wanting to take a picture, but couln't because I was driving and the UFO was so fast in disappearing. The time was 13:18. It was exciting to realize this was not the only instance I saw a UFO several years ago while driving on the Glendale freeway. But it was a little far and this time it was bigger since it was more close.

At 0900 hrs. went on my back deck to have morning coffee. heard a jetliner. looked up and saw a airliner accompanied by a bright white sphere at a distance in front of The airliner. The airliner slowly past the sphere and flew over the sphere so I know the sphere was not higher than the jet, the airliner continued on and the sphere seemed to follow they were both heading to West. I watched until they both disappeared into the clouds.

Springfield, OR
Daylight at Night: On August 6, 2017, at approximately 1:03am pst, in Springfield, Oregon, I witnessed a bright light. (I was on I-5, going south towards Springfield, in my vehicle, about 1 mile north of the Beltline.) The bright light was not from high beams of another car, but a very, very bright light, like daylight all around me! I could see the mountains, or hills, to my left, and I could see the color of the grass and trees as if it were daytime! It lasted about 1.5 to 2 seconds, went back to dark, then back to the same bright light for about 0.5 to 1 second. I drove for approximately .5 of a mile or less, before pulling over to call the Oregon State Police dispatch, to report it, and to find out if anyone else saw the bright light, or if there was an explanation. I described the incident to the dispatch woman, and she said she would put it out there, and find out if any officers had witnessed it. To my surprise, after I made a voice recording of what I saw, there was a voicemail from t! he same dispatch woman! She called to let me know that 2 state police officers had indeed witnessed the bright light, and didn't know what it was either! Since the incident, I have recalled it over, and over all day today (it is still August 6). I realize that it was a very big light, and a light that moved across the landscape and me in my car. I know it was a very big light, because it seemed to light up landscape at least 100 feet in front of me, and to my left at least 200 feet or more, in my best guess. The source of the report has reported accurately. However, the Oregon State Patrol Dispatch [(541) 726-2536] and Lane County, Oregon, Dispatch [(541) 682-5111] report that a bulldozer, working under dubious circumstances, had struck a power pole, perhaps knocking it over, which had caused a very dramatic flash of light, and a resulting grass fire. Emergency vehicles and utility repair personnel were dispatched to the site. We express our gratitude to the OSP and Lane County dispatch centers for their efficient, and cheerful, assistance, which allowed our Center to solve this case quickly. PD

A lime green "falling star" streaked across the sky heading north along Rt. 100. Lost sight as it flew behind the tree line. 2 people saw the event at the same time and was too low to be a commercial aircraft. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

We saw a large and bright light above the peak of Mt. Crested Butte. We went inside for about 5 minutes and when we came back outside, the light was gone. We discussed that the light was too large and too bright to be a star, it made no noise, and was gone in minutes.

My father, brother, and I were sitting in our living room when a bright flash illuminated our entire backyard and interior of our living room. The light was bright blue and had the quality of a spark, as if a light bulb had burned out above our house. This was definitely not a flash of lightning as it was too close to the ground and the form of light didn't resemble lightning at all. There was no sound when the light occurred.

Leicester, MA
Triangular large, hovering, craft, slowly moving forward toward our house which is surrounded by hundreds of acres of woodlands. 5 intermittently pulsating lights appeared to be scanning the wooded area. The craft was extremely large. Triple the size of a large home and only several hundred feet above the treeline. It slowly hovered closer with lights pulsating and as our motion lights in driveway went off it disappeared. Didn't fly off, but was suddenly gone. This craft was completely silent. Never a sound .

Pierre, SD
We observed a very bright light moving west to east directly above us, more towards the eastern sky. Moving quickly. Very far away...but could barely look at it. It was so bright we couldn't really focus on it. Like a large star with a long tail. After sometime, it faded and disappeared. It hurt our eyes, yet it was very far away.
