Was walking dog when he suddenly startled and ran the length of 8ft lead jerking him backwards. He and I both looked up and I heard an extremely loud "whooshing" sound and sped off in a sloping upward pattern and then sat absolutely still for over a minute and I actually got nervous and went for cover. I went to my apartment and grabbed my phone and proceeded to balcony and it had gone behind a building for short period and then for roughly 15 minutes I was able to video tape 3 decent clips. The concerning thing is that this object was not a run of the mill drone. It was very large in size. This object had green and red lights. These lights were on the underbody and flashed.

As we walked out of the house I noticed two big 1/2 sphere flashing white lights. Taking turns blinking apart then they moved close together and formed a disc UFO turning. The lights changed colors when they formed the UFO, orange and blue.

My mother and I stopped and observed this object in the sky which we thought might be a UFO. We then started to take pictures and record the thing and the video was able to get a very close up visual of what looks like some sort of living squid like thing that appears to be throwing up a white jelly substance and sucking it back up inside of itself.

I was outside at night sky watching and out of nowhere I saw three lights appear. The lights went from straight to triangular to diamond shape back to straight then disappeared. I was able to capture photos of it before it disappeared.

Craft was sighted inbound to PHX on the Jet Arrival route from the NW. This route passes directly over my home. It was a bit brighter than the other arrivals but other wise appeared identical to the Boeing's. I am forced to include airbus. This flying machine came to an instant full stop approximately 2 miles from my position to the NW and an estimated 10,000 feet vertically. At that point the entire ship began to flash. All of this rig flashed as a white light, much larger than it's appearance when inbound on the Jet Arrival Route. This continued for approximately 2 minutes. The light then extinguished. The craft was seen no more. Background was an overcast stratus layer. Location: N33 87 3940 W112 045 3050 + - 2 miles There is so much UFO activity here it is becoming boring.

On 1/29/2022 I was getting cash at an ATM at the corner of 7th st and Glendale in Phoenix AZ at about 9:00pm. When I finished I was about to make a right turn onto Glendale when I saw these four glowing orbs/lights in the sky. I was looking towards the north and I would estimate they were at about a 27 degree angle above the northern horizon (roughly a quarter of the way up from the horizon). I got my phone out and recorded for one minute and 32 seconds. At the start of the video (0:00) the orbs are visible and they slowly move almost in tandem towards my vantage point. At (0:16) I attempt to zoom in and see what the lights are. The zoom proved to be quiet out of focus so I went back to being zoomed out (0:21). For the next several seconds the lights continued coming closer but now seem to be slightly out of sync in their movements. At (0:29) the second closest light seems to begin to dim and slowly goes out/disappears. By (0:35) that light is no longer visible. By (0:38) the closest light also goes out. The remaining lights come quite close to each other and seem to go partially around each other and then begin to separate. Again at (0:56) I tried to zoom into the lights and zoom back out at (0:59) at which point the light on the left begins to twinkle and disappear/go out. At (1:12) it becomes harder to see the last remaining light. Once I could no longer see the lights I stopped recording and pulled out of the bank and was traveling east on Glendale when I saw another such light move across the sky. I was not able to get that one on video because I was already driving on a busy street and could not stop to record. Any input onto what it was that I saw would be most helpful. I must say that this was a very strange experience. A few other points that may be helpful. At the start of the video (0:00) you can see a helicopter cross the lower sky from left to right until is cannot be seen (0:10). Also there are some glares that get in the video at some points but those are pretty self explanatory. Here is the video which shows the whole thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OyXjzQGDpo

I was driving from Rimrock, AZ to my job in Sedona. Craft suddenly appeared. Alexi made the photos from inside the car using a cell phone camera. Traffic was backed up as seen in the photos. Picture of craft was slightly blurred probably because it was moving or could be due to surrounding energy'. 6 Other craft were present at the same time. This event occurred approx 20 minutes south of Sedona, Arizona near the corner where Page Springs and Cornville Road meet.

Sighting was exactly at the corner of E Cornville Rd + S Page Springs Rd (where they connect) in Cornville, Arizona approx 7 miles south of Sedona. At the time of the sighting 6 craft were in motion. I was told this is a 'hotbed' area for ufo sightings.

These photos capture a still object in the clouds as commercial jet plane flys over it. The lights shine with glare and it seems to resemble a ship with a large biosphere above it. (Photo taken by colleague) *longer video wouldn’t download but I can email it

These hovering aircraft have been following me everywhere I go. They sit above my home in Scottsdale N, E, S, W positions and one will move in and fire what I first thought was lasers but after capturing this video now know it’s some sort of fish? I have a few wounds on my ankles from June of 2021 that haven’t healed and this week pulled a scab to discover it was a fish skeleton. Pictures attached. I cannot believe I’m the only one that’s noticed these aircraft on the air. They fly low and have become brazen as you can see. That’s a main road and they aren’t 5-600yds away. I have dozens and dozens of photos and videos of this. I thought I was being harassed by someone flying drones but again they never land and furthermore their the size of an aircraft. I live very close to a private airport in the airspace above my home is restricted and they seem to have no regard for that. When their above at night depending on circumstances these objects are flying throughout my home from the walls, ceiling, and floor. There is nothing that I have found to shield myself for it. (Video attached) Its best described as wearing a wool shirt with no undershirt. Furthermore an I Unexplained energy in my home and or ground vibration when they are overhead. I’ve been staying at a hotel near the airport to find refuge. Please help!

This sighting occurred while onboard Allegiant Flight AAY 552, Phoenix, Arizona, to Bellingham, Washington, Sunday, January 16, 2022. Take off time: 4:45 p.m. MST. Time of sighting: 5:06 p.m. MST. Weather: Daylight. Sunny with partial clouds. Elevation: @ 35,700’. Coordinates at time of sighting: @ 35.4556 Lat / -112.0866 Lon. The sun was setting, but still relatively high, on the port side of the airplane. I was seated starboard, in window seat 7D. My companion was in seat 7E. As we taxied to the runway, I began photographing scenes outside my window for the benefit of my curious three and five year old grandsons back home. I shot a series of photos on the ground and during take off. As we gained altitude, above the partial cloud coverage, I snapped a few shots of the emerging full moon and was captivated to see, upon review of the images, a light phenomenon my eyes did not initially detect. This light, however, was not the UFO sighting. The camera’s eye revealed a beautiful, circular rainbow just below the moon. I had never seen such a mystical wonder so I continued to shoot, hoping for just one exquisite capture. It may be helpful to note here that, according to my camera’s metadata, the series of ten images I have submitted, seven reflecting the UFO, were collectively shot within 60 seconds. This sighting happened fast. As I was photographing the celestial scene, a dark, black streak appeared in the top left corner of the frame. Startled and on reflex, I lowered my camera/phone to look directly at the window fearing it had suddenly cracked. Seeing the streak was not ON the window, but far off in the distant sky, I immediately resumed photographing. The smoking object appeared to be traveling south, parallel to our northbound airplane, at a very high rate of speed. I saw no metal. No flames. No material form of any kind or shape. It was at a distance too great for me to guesstimate. It was descending at approximately a 30-degree angle leaving two thick, black contrails behind. I saw no lights. No fire ball. No other craft, object or smoke elsewhere around it. Only two significant contrails of smoke, with what can only be described as open space between them, hinged at the nose. It all happened so very fast. When the object rotated perpendicular to the ground, I grabbed the arm of my travel companion and said with alarm, “Look at this! I think that’s an airplane going down! Oh, my, God, all those passengers!” We both fixed our eyes on the smoking object while I continued to photograph. Suddenly, the object, which was clearly falling, completed an aerobatic somersault, began to level its altitude, then sharply and suddenly diverted due east and vanished. Completely vanished without a trace of craft or contrails left behind. This falling object ceased to fall, redirected itself, then just simply and literally evaporated. I snapped a few additional after-shots, hoping a shift in our plane’s position and reflective light might capture some last trace of evidence, but nothing appeared on the images. The sky looked as if nothing had been there. My companion and I were quite unsettled and uncertain about what, if anything, to do. I had the thought to ask a flight attendant to take my camera/phone to the pilot to ask for a reasonable explanation but I wasn’t quite able to muster the courage to act on it. As we deboarded and I passed by the cock pit, thanking the attendants, I felt a little nudge to lean in and ask the Captain myself but again, I hesitated. The pilot must have sensed me, because just as I was turning away, he swung around in his seat, acknowledging me with a tilt of his head and a polite wink. I jokingly told my friend, “I think he knows!” Later, I had one final opportunity to speak with the Captain as he passed by my husband and I at baggage claim. But as I quickly reached to open my phone’s gallery and told my husband, (who was as yet unaware of the sighting,) “I have a question I REALLY need to ask that pilot!”, my husband grabbed my arm and stopped me. “Don’t bother that man, honey. He’s had a long day and is probably anxious to get back home or to his hotel room.” So, one more time, I didn’t ask, still have no answers and am now filing this report with you. Per your request for a bit of personal background information, I am a retired Washington State County employee. I served a total of 21 years including eight with the Prosecuting Attorneys Office and twelve as the acting Deputy Clerk for Superior Court’s Domestic Violence and Drug Court divisions. This sighting is not my first, it’s my third, but the first with the photographic evidence to support my claim. Previous sightings were in March, 2021, while vacationing with the same travel companion, on Oahu, Hawaii and in 1974, as a high school senior, in Schenectady, New York. I remember each of these sightings with equal clarity. The images are forever etched into my memory and I’m happy to provide additional information, if it is of value to you. My travel companion, also retired, owned a very successful, paper and packing business with her husband serving multiple Washington State counties. We first met and worked together in Bellingham, Washington, in 1977 and have lived near to one another and remained dear friends since. Additional follow-up: As soon as I returned home, I forwarded the images and a text message to one of my retired Superior Court judges/friend who is also a licensed pilot and retired US Army Lieutenant Colonel. He was perplexed by the images and suggested I contact the UFO Reporting Center. I also personally know the Airport Operations Manager at Bellingham International Airport, who was equally mystified and unable to offer any potential explanation. I am curious and eager to speak to an investigator about this mysterious unknown. Thank you all for the work you are doing to collect UFO data and help expand the Public’s knowledge regarding the unlimited potentials and possibilities within our vast Universe. Flight detail summary: Sunday, January 16, 2022 – Allegiant Flight AAY 522 Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport to Bellingham International Airport Departure time: 4:45 MST Sighting time (as noted in image metadata): 4:06 PST / 5:06 actual MST Time discrepancy: For reasons unknown to me, the metadata on the images reflect PST at the time of capture, however, we had not yet entered PST zone when the images were shot. Coordinates at time of sighting: 35.4556 Lat / -112.0866 Lon were found via Flightaware.com tracking. The object in question aappears to us to be another high-altitude jet with a thick contrail trailing behind it. PD

Hovering aircraft that have been over my home. They seem to sit North, East South and West for the last 4 months that I have noticed. They will move closer one by one and circle the area. They are there every night without fail. They fly very low and what’s more perplexing is I’ll have on multiple occasions seen them fly like and airplane. The ground around my home vibrates the closer the are as well as best I can describe is drywall fibers shooting out of the walls and ceiling. I cannot believe I’m the only one who’s noticed their presence.

Around 2PM 1/10/22 I turned onto Bell RD east from 51rst Ave ! Saw what looked like blank airplane banner without anything pulling it, going south slowly! My best guess was it was flying south over I-17 about 1/2 mile up and about the size of a long airplane banner. It was at my upper left corner of windshield when first noticed. Pulled into parking lot and watched it fly south until it disappeared into the distance, still moving slowly! Had no idea what I saw until I was watching Origins Unknown: Alien Presents On Earth at 9 minutes in and saw the same exact thing on program they called it snake shaped UFO they said it has only been seen the last year or so! I will post video recorded from TV so you'll know better what I saw I didn't see the curly on in the video mine was the straight billowy one. Wish I hadn't forgot my phone!

I took the garbage out to the front of our home. Looked up and there was a stationary oval shaped object that appeared rather large rather than small. Size was like a large nightly moon. There was a line of lights in the center in a horizontal position. All the lights were white except the one in the middle was red. I went to the back of the home to see it facing north. It was still not moving. Decided to return to the front sidewalk and it was still not moving. I glanced away for a few seconds and looked back up and it had disappeared, not able to see it at all. I do remember there were clouds that night. This could have been on January 12th as we have two garbage pick ups.

I-10 freeway near Az and Ca border, heading west, AZ
I'm driving down the I10 from Arizona to California. This video is near the CA/AZ border... The reason I am driving (fearing for my life) is because I have video evidence that are issues of national security...actually, your's and my security. National Security really means "continued military dominance". This ball of light appears to be darting all around with no purpose. What you can't see but I know is there, is that in the center of the video is a V shaped cloud pointed at the front (towards camera). It is in fact a giant cloaked triangular craft. Think stealth. It's there but it's hidden so well you don't know it's there. What you are seeing is the small white light moving around the craft in the center. I am attaching videos of craft(s) paralleling my car on the freeway. They are in fact protecting me from the white craft in the distance. How do I know this? LISTEN TO MY VOICE when I am speaking with the video IN SLOW MOTION. It sounds like screeching and groaning, etc., almost like I am speaking in an "animal" language, like a lion groaning, birds screeching, etc. listen to it!!! what do you hear???

I was in my backyard with my dog and looked up because it was a clear sky. I saw a brightly lit, slightly oval/cylindrical object high in the sky that appeared quickly, zipped to my right (NE, I think) and disappeared. It didn't seem to go far before it disappeared. I'm sure it wasn't a comet; there was no tail of any type. It just started at one spot, flew very fast and disappeared.

While driving southbound on route AZ 77, in the south eastern sky, near the upper corner of my windshield 5 lights appeared, glowing from light to very bright and then fading away within 10 seconds. They appeared in random order and elevation in the sky and appeared in a row or cluster. A few minutes after they disappeared a strange electronic type buzz rang out inside the vehicle, yet nothing could have caused such an event.

I was on the balcony at 4am; it was completely dark, clear sky, and I saw a circular object moving. At first it looked not moving, then it did a sort of infinite sign; then it moved in circles. During my recording It appeared another one close to it; Please see the videos.
