Hyannis, MA
I was outside because I received an alert for possible auroral activity. Tall trees were to my right as I faced the northern sky. From behind a tall tree to my right, a light emerged from somewhere between Cygnus and Lacerta, moving straight toward Cepheus. I thought it was a shooting star, but it did not diminish or burn up as most do. Suddenly, without slowing down, it made a big broad turn to its left, which was toward the constellation of Cassiopeia, below Cepheus or you could also say moving closer to the northern horizon. This was not a slow gradual turn in the sky, but a remarkable swiftly moving turn that was in effect a 180 degree turn, nowhere near being "on course" from its original trajectory. Again, this was a very swift moving, silent object moving at a speed similar to that of a shooting star. The object itself was not as distinct as a meteor in the sky. The object's light was closer to white, and the object itself was either blurry, or may have consisted of several lights on one object, or possibly several objects flying in a very tight formation.

Lyons, CO
Witness Background: (1) Engineer (2) Wildlife Biologist Description: At approximately 11:15 pm, 7/15/17, the following was observed from Lyons, CO, for 5–7 minutes: -- Clear night; no clouds; very low light pollution allowed the Milky-Way white glow to be visible; Big Dipper visible -- Hundreds of star-like (point lights with white color) lights were seen moving in the same direction, with different and changing speeds, like a flock of birds would move in relation to each other, but slower…perhaps due to the distance…The spatial distance between them changed; the direction of travel changed; -- They covered the sky and took 5 – 7 minutes to move through the sky and appeared to change direction as a group. However, from our point of view, there was one area with the mass of observable lights, but which were also seen in other parts of the sky but less dense. -- Silent. No visible trail. No apparent predictable formation. Neither of us has ever seen anything like it. -- It was not a meteor shower because what we observed moved much slower, and were observed over several minutes, while appearing to speed up, slow down, and change direction…also, meteors were seen, but were at a different angle to the direction of travel for what we saw, and obviously much, much faster, only visible for split seconds. Planes were seen and identified due to red/green/white aviation lights…what we observed was different. Satellites were seen, usually only one at a time, but never more than two or three together moving in the same path at the same speed…and not changing direction. -- Because we were astonished, we made specific reference to where we were, where the Big Dipper was, etc..

North Canton, OH
As I was driving to work, I saw 4 balls of light that were a dull burnt orange in color. When I first noticed them, they were in the shape similar to a backwards "s". I went to grab my phone to try and take a picture/video of what I was seeing, when I looked back up at the sky the balls of light had begun to move into more of a square or diamond formation. When I arrived at work minutes later I could no longer see them in the sky.

Looking southwest we saw a light go straight up above the horizon, it moved around left to right, and seemed to be orbiting, with very rapid movements, then it left and headed south out of sight.

I just saw 4 strange lights in the sky. Very bright red and yellow (not blinking like a plane}. They started out in a diamond shape and two moved off to the right and the other two stayed in one place. Then one moved to the left outta sight for about a minute and appeared again. They seemed to be going in an upward path. Then one disappeared and a minute later the other disappeared. I'll let you be the judge. Meteors? or UFO's. Oh I have the video. I'll upload it later.. I have never seen this kind of thing before. 7/15/2017

Multiple colored lights moving North to South in straight paths about 2215 hours? Watched about two dozen over the course of five minutes moving at the speed of satellites, but much larger. White, blue, red, green and orange on multiple trajectories. Steady state, no flashing. No sound.

A bright light at first believe to be a star or perhaps a satellite. After viewing the object on our Skyview app, there was no satellite in the area at that time. The object moved slightly left to right and from dim to very bright. Object got brighter as it appeared to get closer.

Greensburg, PA
While walking the dog in our back yard, I saw a bright orange-red light appear over the western horizon, traveling toward the east. The light was bright and steady, not pulsating, and the object made no sound. I watched it travel across the dark sky, trying to determine what it could be. Then another identical object appeared from the same area as the first one, and followed the same path. One object was trailing the other. When both objects were clearly visible at the same time, I ran to the house to ask my husband to come outside quickly. For two to three minutes, we both watched these two orange-red spherical objects travel from west to east, although they seemed to be not perfectly round, and looked to be somewhat flattened on the top. There was a distance between them but they followed the same trajectory. The trailing light passed into a small thin cloud and disappeared first. Then the leading light passed into a larger, more dense cloud and dis! appeared second. Then they were gone. After that, the sky seemed clear except for a passing airplane. I resumed walking the dog and then to our surprise, about two minutes later, another orange-red light just like the first two appeared, again from the same area on the western horizon and traveling eastward. My husband was still outside and witnessed it, too. About 30 seconds later, there came another light from the same place. This set of lights traveled approximately the same path as the first set, were also a distance apart, and both lights also passed into thin clouds and disappeared, but this set disappeared almost simultaneously. They didn’t travel as far as the first set did before blinking out. The objects did not have lights on them; the spheres themselves appeared to glow brightly. None of the four objects appeared to be at an extremely high altitude. The lights of the passing airplane appeared to be much smaller and not nearly as bright as the unknown objects. Several stars were also visible in the night sky. My husband and I are both retired. He is a former auto maker and maintenance technician. I was a medical technologist. We have lived at this address for over 7 years. We walk our dogs every night in the back yard and this is the first unusual sighting we have had.

Monterey, CA
The children and I went to the San Carlos beach in Monterey during sunset we were playing with the sand and taking pictures we uncovered a lobster in the sand that was orange in color as if baked but it was alive, at the moment I didn’t think of the color of the lobster, my son asked me what is that in the sky? pointing to a big light ball as if it’s an open orb or tunnel that was 200 meters far. My son said that is heaven, I said as I stood mesmerized that this is grandparents watching over us. I was mesmerized that even me a communication professor that loves media and has been taking pictures of everything small or big I was able to snap one single picture only, but it was so beautiful that I believe it is my diamond star picture. I took the kids afterwards for a small walk took some pictures and walked to the car and home contemplating to what I saw. Ever since I feel I have a mission that is heavier than me, but God keeps sending me helping signs. It is heaven. And yes, God is everywhere.

Casa Grande, AZ
I was about 13 when this occurred, I am from San Diego California but when this happened it was in Casa grande Arizona. One evening the sun was setting and it was getting dark. As I walked into the backyard I saw something in the corner of my eye. As I turned my head I seen some type of craft I’ve never seen in my life, and it was hovering a few feet over the neighbors roof (which was completely empty then because they had moved out). I had yelled so my grandma could come outside and she had also seen what I was seeing. I stood there for 20 minutes in shock just staring at this craft which I knew wasn’t from this world. That’s because this craft didn’t portray any light, it had no sound, & it floated dead still in the air not moving at all!!!!! The part that still freaks me out to this day is that I remember as I watched this craft, I felt a strong energy coming from it and also like I was being watched like the craft knew I was watching it. So after standing there for about 20 minutes just staring at the craft and feeling this strong energy from it as it also never made a sound or movement. I said to myself that I was gonna walk in the house for 10 seconds to see if it will move at all or maybe even vanish. I stepped in the house and counted to 10, then walked outside and the craft that I had been staring out for all that time had completely vanished there was no trace of it. I also saw nothing flying away in the distance mind you I was only gone for 10 seconds!!!! I knew what I had seen with something other worldly.

Lapine, OR
Around 2pm, I heard a jet and looked up at it, just then I noticed a white-silver metallic object much higher. The object appeared to be rotating and changing shape, as it glistened against the sun. I asked my Girlfriend and her 15 year old son to look at it and they both had no explanation. The three of us looked at it through binoculars for about a half an hour. The object seemed to get further away, until we couldn't see it anymore.

Wilsall, MT
I observed three egg-shaped lights in a tight cluster, but not touching. One of the lights turned to the east and hovered over the Crazy Mountains. I woke my husband, and we observed the huge white light in the sky. We went outside and it triggered our exterior motion lights. The object receded quickly, until it looked like a small star but within less than a minute, it came forward, and again hovered over the mountains. We observed this for 30 minutes. We suspect a sighting of Venus. PD

Weed, CA
I was watching one of those flashing "disco in the sky" lights for a few hours, while outside on a porch with friends looking into the sky east past Shasta. It seemed very suspicious, as the lights were even flashing between colors, it was very far off and it stayed in a "constellation" with 2 background stars as the constellations rose from the east. At about 3:30am, a second flashing light flew up from the south, they did a dance, and the second one replaced the first one. The first one then greatly dropped altitude at around a 20 degree angle from vertical down and then took off straight east towards Nevada at a much lower altitude skimming the mountain top. Pretty much the only popultion center is the I-5 corridor so it isn't hard to do some basic trig to hide in constellations. Now that I've seen one of these they seem to be all over N. California.

Vero Beach, FL
At approximately 1:45 AM Eastern Time, I was walking my dog, and as usual, stargazing. As I walked down 40th Ave., towards 12th Street in Vero Beach, Florida, I saw a large fireball appearing light falling to earth, at approximately 45 Degree angle, but curving, not coming straight down. The ball of light lit the clouds orange, as it went behind the cloud and below the tree line, and out of sight. There was no sound at all and I watched the area of the sky for another 10 minutes, but I saw nothing more. It looked like the video of the Russian Chelyabinsk Meteor that came down in 2013, before the explosion and nowhere near as bright but the trajectory as this orange ball of fire was on a very similar angle. I did not see a tail or trail behind it, and it appeared to move at a uniform speed, but slower than one would expect a meteor to fly. This was amazing to watch, I hope I can find out more out about it. I noticed my dog that is a wolf hybrid, seemed mesmerized, and watched it, as I did, until lost from our sight. My dog just stood there and continued to stare in the direction we had seen the fireball fall behind the tree line for several minutes. Direction when I first saw the fireball it was at about 94 degrees East and at about 45 degrees up with the flat horizon being 0 degrees (I do not know the proper term here), and I lost sight of it at about 104 degrees NE at a height of about 25 degrees. It traveled that space in between 15 and 25 maybe 35 seconds.

Alexandria, VA
Sitting with one other person on our balcony...looking east. Partially cloudy sky that night. Other person points and says "what is that?!!" I look up, seeing seven very bright lights, traveling in a nearly straight line, traveling in a north to south direction, at about a 50% angle from the horizon, above us. The lights were much brighter than the brightest star in the sky--perhaps 10 times or more brighter. My first reaction was one of being very startled and concerned. This did not look like anything I had EVER seen in the sky before...and I was at first concerned it was something dangerous. After it continued past us, I was less concerned, and just very curious at what it was. The lights did not make any sound that we could hear...and the night was overall quite quiet. The lights continued on their path, coming in and out of the clouds in a southern direction, for about 6 minutes or so...as they faded out of view and into the clouds in the distance. Hard to get a good read on their altitude, but they were significantly higher than the relatively low clouds that night, and perhaps a fair bit higher. If I had to guess, I would say 5,000 - 15,000 feet. But again, I'm no expert at altitude distances. Unfortunately, both of our phones were charging in the other room, and by the time we thought to get pictures, the lights were out of sight. To describe the lights in more detail: Seven (maybe 8) very bright, white lights, maybe 10 times brighter (or more) than the brightest star in the sky, traveling in a nearly straight-line formation across the sky. They were traveling in a nearly single-file line, with a couple of the lights slightly out of line. The lights were very close together -- all 7 seven of the lights were approximately contained in the outline of my fist when my arm was completely outstretched. They seemed to be traveling at the approximate speed of an airplane. They were traveling at a constant speed. They seemed to be either twinkling or blinking... not all at once, but at a constant rate...maybe every second or so.

When I reviewed my pictures is when I noticed something strange in one. I was driving west on I-10 at 8:39pm. Not a bad picture for not even looking, while taking it, because I was driving.

Took pictures of the Point Betsie lighthouse in Michigan on the evening of July 14th. Was there to watch sunset. Went through pictures today and noticed where I snapped a few pictures of the lighthouse, one had a large sphere by the tree tops. It's large enough you can see the sun shining on it. It must have flew away fast because my next picture it was gone. I cannot explain what this. Probably not a UFO, but cannot be certain. PD

Tacoma, WA
I was very afraid after seeing the beings. They were nothing like us. Bald like how I am today. They seemed more like light beige they weren't speaking. They could tell I was afraid. I was on a table for a short period of time and asking what are you doing, no, stop. I don't remember what they were doing to me. I felt no pain, and I don't remember them touching me. Just staring. I felt bound. I couldn't move and this is where my fears were stemming from. Being stuck. After I begin praying more. I was shifted back into my driver's seat and seen a flash above me disappear. My daughters formula for her feeding tube was all over the floor in the backseat, she was no longer crying and just staring at me in silence. There were string like webs coming from my vehicle as I put my truck in drive, and sped immediately to my grandmother's house where my father, cousin, and grandmother were. I was in tears and trying to explain. My cousin and grandmother thought I was on a drug and I could tell they didn't believe me. My dad kept shutting them down. And explaining to them that it happened in Louisiana to him and that's why he didn't want to tell them before. This is the third time in my life I've had an encounter. The first one was with my dad, in university place area washington, me and him were going to the store and witnessed the craft just hovering. We stayed in the street staring until it took off before our eyes. The 2nd was with all my cousins off of 74th street in Tacoma WA, broad daylight. We all witnessed the craft it was round and sped off, fast as light. This last time, I ended up losing all the hair on my entire body exactly 3 weeks later. Doctors said it would grow back in 6 months. To this day I'm bald after having gorgeous long beautiful hair. My daughters bald spot is just now growing back. I also became pregnant out of the blue and carried my daughter full term. She bled to death after her surgery at children's hospital. My cars computer system failed, today I get downloads about scientific things. My daughter is completely healed from her EA/TEF and drs were able to take out her feeding tube. I don't get sick and I get downloads about scientific things that I know science is still trying to discover and I've developed blood type B+ allergy symptoms. I have my grandfathers blood type and not my dad's or mother's. My mother is O-. Her body was supposed to recect me during pregnancy because she never got the rhoGam vaccine. Ppl come to me for information about their lives and since this contact I've I've been 100% spot on, even live with hundreds of people watching. Its natural for me. I predict events and solve everything efficiently with ease. My daughter was behind on everything from her condition. Today she's above average and granted awards. She is precise in knowing events and uses words we have no idea where they come from. I've had to relocate here to Georgia due to corruption in justice system and family member criminal activities and schemes against me after they became aware of me knowing about the activities and crimes they're all participating in. I had to relocate to protect myself and my children from their chaos and greed. Feedback form investigator: In either 2017 or 2018, at the intersection of 96th & 84th, Tacoma, WA, the witness encounter occurred. She pulled over in her car to provide nourishment to her infant. Witness is not sure of the exact date. The following encounter may have happened for three minutes. Her recollection involves the observation of a luminous object intensifying in brightness. She described lying on a slab with transparent forms of beings around her. The beings had no particular form, didn’t speak, and acted confused with how the witness acted toward them. In a very foggy state of mind, she was back in her car. Her baby kept staring at her and smiling. When they placed her back into her car,she found it covered with a spider web substance, which blew off when she drove away. She thought the substance cloaked her vehicle because they left her baby in the car. After the incident, major lifetime changes happened. She got immediately pregnant and Children’s Hospital took the child at birth, telling her the baby had severe medical issues. The baby died. Since the encounter, she lost her hair, and she is still bald. Doctors tell her it’s a medical mystery. Witness feels they entities gave her a gift. Her Dad received the same gifts from his encounters. Her understanding of scientific procedures has sped up years ahead of discovery. She can read peoples’s lives with 100% accuracy. She's enrolled in a Harvard certification program on identification prediction and decision-making. Her daughter, who was in the car, is a gifted child and the medical issue she was born with is gone. The witness has become an entrepreneur and scientific type of person. She never had an affinity for science in high school. The car she was driving during the encounter, a Cadillac CTX, never had prior issues, but shortly after the incident, it wouldn’t operate.
