Duluth, MN
Early on the morning of June 28, 2017, I was awake at 3:30 a.m. and looking out my window from a townhouse on Barker’s Island in Superior, WI. My view looks across the water to the area in Duluth, MN, known as Park Point. I saw a bright shining object hovering in the sky some distance over the tree tops. It was just past the pump house beyond the small airport that is at the end of the point. It did not move in the sky as a plane or helicopter would do. I checked my Night Sky App to see if it was a satellite or planet, and found that there were none in that area of the sky. It was too big to be a distant star. The object had flickering white lights and stayed very stationary in its position for about 20 minutes, then it disappeared.

Hover in slow at first. Then it started rising to higher altitude and pickingup speed very fast. Then it disappeared behind the clouds. Afterwards, I was planes pass over to see how long I could see them, and they were visible for awhile unlike the triangular object. The first time I seen this was in the same place while standing in my yard with a friend. Was in October 2016, 2 am. Appeared and disappeared in the same way. The first time we heard coyotes, and my dog was acting very on guard. Pacing back and forth along the perimeter of the yard. Then everything got quiet and the wind picked up a little and I noticed a cloud was illuminated with light. That's was I notice the triangle shaped object flying toward our direction. I've told neighbors about this and apparently one of them has picture and footage of the same thing from a drone. I can contact him about getting a copy of the footage and pics he has.

We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he sounded to us to be quite sober-minded, and credible. He is a retired military officer. PD

Casa Grande, AZ
I looked out my window toward the west and thought I was seeing small brush fires on the desert hills. I got my binoculars and realized these were orange glowing objects above the horizon. They did not move! But they did extinguish over time, but then re-appear! Typically there were two in a horizontal formation, maybe an inch apart from my vantage point. They seemed to be in the far distance, like over Maricopa, Arizona, 20 miles west of my location. The event lasted at least 30 minutes. The most notable thing was these objects never appeared to move. They were rock solid in their location in the low western shy, for as long as they were visible (5 to 10 minutes?). As a former Radar tech in the USAF I tried to imagine some sort of tech this could be, but nothing comes to mind. I had plenty of time to get my camera. Set it on manual and was able to get photos..

Soap Lake, WA
June 28, 2017, at about 10:45, I went outside to fix our door screen. I looked up into the night sky. In the direction where the Sun had set one hour before. But I saw something in the same place the sun had set. It was very bright. So, I went in to get my c-phone to take a picture of it. I didn’t think that when the sun set, the moon can come up in the same place. I took some pictures and then went into the house to show my husband. When I returned outside I look at the sky again. And I saw what looked like a crescent moon. Then it started to look like a comet. I took some more pictures. And when I was done. The sky was dark. That was about 11:45. We have amended the date and time of the sighting. PD

Cambridge, MN
Helicopter that sounded and was moving fast got my attention in the northern sky watch it approach and thought wow he's moving fast but then I saw a single dot of light ahead of it maybe 1000 feet or so that was small and could tell there was no flash it was just a solid white and moving very smoothly watched for total of about 20 seconds after seeing the dot and then lost sight due to the woods behind my house. This helicopter was either following another military vehicle that was some type of top secret thing or this was a a a freaking UFO. Source of the report provides no contact information. PD

Leupp, AZ
I was driving back from work on a pretty inactive highway. I was texting my girlfriend and I would occasionally look around at the sky then all of a sudden, I looked to my left side and saw 3 lights connected to each other of fairly big size, just sitting still in the sky. I looked at it and said "what is that?" 2 to 3 seconds later, it completely vanished as I was still looking where it was.

Benson, VT
I saw these out in the distance. I see a dark floater to my right and they make way over my house. I go outside and listen and hear nothing. Out in the distance, I see an orange glow. Way out in farm land. I assume must be a big fire maybe embers from it. Then it rises and floats over my house I recorded it bad footage but got it and you can see it pass a start as it moves, then gone.

West Columbia, SC
(Report amended to correct date) At 21:09 ET, on Tuesday, 6-27-2017, I walked out of my garage and something in the sky immediately caught my attention. After observing the object for only about 10 seconds, I realized I was looking at something very unusual. I ran back to the door so I could call out for my girlfriend to bring her tablet to video the “UFO.” I ran back to the garage opening to see it again for a few seconds before I thought to reach for my camera already in the garage and nearby. By the time I grabbed the camera the object was gone. I was the only witness that I know of at this time. My girlfriend ran out just after it disappeared. We stood there observing the sky for some time, but did not see anything else unusual. My home is located about one mile north of Columbia Metropolitan Airport near Columbia, SC. The object was nearly due north of my location (approx. 350 degrees) and fairly low on the horizon (approx 15-20 degrees). The object appeared to be at a great distance, at least a few miles away, but distance, size and altitude were hard to gauge without any point of reference. The object appeared to emanate a greenish white light or glow. The sun had set just a while before and could have been illuminating the object. The object or craft made very erratic high speed maneuvers unlike anything I have witnessed before. The shape was indistinguishable due to what was perceived to be a great distance to the object. There were no clouds in the immediate area of the object. As a knowledgeable military aviation enthusiast, I feel very certain what I witnessed cannot be explained as an aircraft, balloon, kite, meteor, bird or anything else known to myself.

Garden City, SC
My husband and 14 year old son ran to the front and the disk shaped craft was flying low and making a pulsating sound. It was round like a disk and flat on the bottom with blinking lights on both sides. It was flying really slow. There was also a beam of light shining down on the ocean when it was sitting still.

Colorado Springs, CO
I was driving and I caught a glimpse of light out of the corner of my eye and I pulled my car over to the side of the road and it all happened so quickly and only in a matter of seconds but there was a bright green light in the sky I can't describe the shape the lights were in but it was just high up on the sky and in the middle of the sky and when I blinked the lights were completely gone.

We got our binoculars out and still could not make shape. Appeared stationary, then made fast horizontal movement and disappeared. I have reported from this area before of amber lights at night. Same craft but daytime??? By the way this is in the Norway-Nelson Road area. Approx 1 mi. south of the St. Lawrence River.

Roughly 1/5 of the way up the silhouette of Mount San Jasinto was 8 red lights above a blue line followed by another 8 red lights. All 3 sets of lights were parallel and evening spaced apart. Object was about 3 miles away and would guess it was 100' wide x 50' high. Moved slow around Canyon Ridge towards the bottom tram station. Then disappeared.

He proceeded to go west, and then looked like it turned into still a red circle, then dropped. I came across a video on YouTube and saw one that looked exactly like it. We have amended the date to reflect a sighting after midnight on June 27th, 2017. PD

Louisville, KY
I work as a security officer at a building in Louisville. I was outside driving the parking lot in the patrol vehicle, when I happened to look up and spot an object, triangular in shape, but rounded at the corners, moving across the sky very slowly. There was no noise from the object, nor any lights emitting from it. It was 11:45pm and the sky was partly cloudy. I could see a few small clouds in the sky near the object, and could determine that the object was not a cloud as it was moving slightly faster than the surrounding clouds. At night in the city, clouds have an orange color at the bottoms as the street lights of the city reflect off of them. The object however didn’t have the same coloration at the bottom. It was of a darker grey color at the bottom, with a lighter gray color on the top. I was viewing this object at its left side. My patrol vehicle was facing west, and the object was moving east along with the clouds. The object did not ! have a shiny surface from what I could see. As far as the size of the object, it was at least the size of 5 school buses, maybe a bit larger. It was very low in the sky and I could tell it was big. I asked our camera operator in the dispatch office to see if they could get the object on camera, unfortunately they were not looking at the same direction as I was, and therefore I was the only witness. The entire sighting lasted somewhere between 30 to 60 seconds. It continued to head west until out of view. I am still excited over this sighting even after nearly 90 minutes after the fact. I truly hope someone else in the area saw this thing. I have seen plenty of helicopters, planes, and satellites in the sky at night move across the sky. This thing was none of those.

Laconia, NH
I was on vacation waiting for my daughter, husband and friends to arrive at the resort when I received a disturbing phone call from the police department that my son in law had hung himself. At first I thought it was a mistake, I tried calling my daughter..no answer. I tried calling my son in law..no answer. I was standing on the porch of my resort when I suddenly saw a pink orb/sphere in the sky. It did not move...it was pink, I could see white round objects in front of it. It was not the moon. My neighbor below came outside to observe the orb...I yelled down to her..."Do you see the orb?" OMG..yes I do. We could not believe our eyes. It was in the sky for about 10-15 minutes when all of a sudden it was gone. Could this have been a sign from my deceased son in law?

Did not see anything but heard a super creepy mechanic noise/echo for about 30 seconds, before it faded away. We have the windows open, could hear the noise over the TV. We turned off the TV and listened to it before it faded away. Did NOT sound like a plane or helicopter. Very slow motion mechanic sound.

Myrtle Beach, SC
While returning to our room on the fourth floor of the South Tower at the Sands Ocean Dunes, my husband and I noticed three glowing orange lights to our right, just beside the North Tower. We stopped and got our phones out of our pool bag. I took a picture (it flashed) and I attempted to take video, but the phone light came on again. My husband videoed the entire sighting. I ran to get my son from our room. He is a Law Enforcement Officer. I am a Teacher's Assistant and my husband is a disabled Securities Courier. Our five year old grandson also witnessed this event. We watched the object turn upwards and each light disappear individually. My stated his was able to see clear edges of the aircraft or UFO.
