It looked like a jelly fish force field that disappeared and two lights separated out of it and went different directions and one disappeared and the other traveled for 2 minutes and 4 minutes later there was some thing that looked like a flare in the opposite direction the direction where the one light headed that disappeared.

Sebring, FL
I was looking in the sky when I noticed a very bright silver reflective round object close to the sun positioned at about 7 o’clock from the sun. As soon as I noticed it, the object started steadily moving southbound at approximately the speed of a fighter jet. About a half a second to a second later, the thing BOLTED. Faster than anything I’ve ever seen move. It was out of sight going South or SW within a second. There is an air force base nearby, but there was no sound and no boom or anything, and the only other craft in the sky was a nearby passenger jet.

Walking my dog and noticed a bright orange orb in sky and then turned cylinder shaped with a blue trail moving slowly. Then I saw it become orb shaped again and looked like a smoke ring around the entire orange orb. It disappeared for four seconds and when it reappeared, two other orange orbs shot out from that original orb. The one was stationary and the other two were moving from north to south very fast. Planes flew above and below the orbs and they definitely were not planes. No flashing lights, just solid bright orange balls. The original one was still stationary and going in and out of sight. It is a clear night as moon is shining bright.

I saw from my back yard something very bright coming from the east to the west at very high speed it was so bright and fast I barely had time to pull my phone out to take a quick video at the same time I was calling my wife out to see it. When it got over us it blew up and lit the sky it disappeared then it reappeared but in two fire balls then came back together into one large ball and took off again in high speed.

Carrollwood, FL
This is a confirmed revised statement: I am an armed Security Officer posted at the Hillsborough County Child Services in the Carrollwood area of Tampa, Fl. On Monday 09 January 2023 at 2350 hours (11:50pm), I was grtting prepared to do a golf cart patrol of the facility when I saw an orange glow in the sky in the Carrollwood area of Tampa, Fl, just South of Hillsborough County Child Services ( Lake Magdline rd. Entrance). Then almost immediately 2 smaller craft broke away from the center of what appeared to be a mothership heading in separate directions. About 30 seconds later, I saw the same large orange glow to the southeast for approximately 6 seconds before it completely disappeared at 0000 hours (12:00am) Tuesday morning 10 January 2023. I stopped for about 2 mins waiting to see if it would reappear but it did not. Unfortunately, there was no one else with me or around me to witness this unusual event. I looked up the number to report this event and made phone contact with the national UFO reporting center who advised me to file this report in depth using their online reporting tool, and to contact the media outlets. I have been an overnight Officer at this post since August 2022 and I have never seen such a thing before. Due to privacy and legal reasons, I would like to keep the company name and information out of this report. My contact info is provided below.

A reddish blue streak like a vapor trail streaked across the sky going from N to S and suddenly terminated, like a comet that had burned up. Seconds later, in the same trajectory, very high in the sky, there was a small shower of white sparks like fireworks, and from this issued a white object the size of a large star. It slowly crossed the sky getting smaller until I couldn't see it anymore. It had a curious wide vapor trail that was fan shaped made up of billows of translucent white smoke or fog which could no longer be seen as the "star like object" got further away.

Blue light (aircrafts?) not moving or moving extremely slow during the Day, with other phenomena afterwards they normally disappear in the Sky. I have multiple videos to share. However, not sending a video until I can talk to the government to describe more details! Thank you.

I used my phone to capture this when I went to look at the full moon close to midnight. I didn’t see it until I took a photo of the moon and saw it on the screen. There was only one object and it was moving erratically. Almost as though the mood was repelling it. It moved around and changed shapes and colors from white to green.

While walking my dog, I noticed an unusually large glowing orange object. At first, I thought it was a plain, as sometimes they appear large as they are flying across. However, this object did not move and was orange opposed to a white light. I watched it for a good 45 minutes on and off with breaks about 30 seconds just to grab a glass of water. By the size, you could tell it was not circular, yet almost appeared like a vase. It’s slowly shift is left and right and as soon as I saw it start to slowly drop it completely completely disappeared I do have a video was odd about the video is when taking it with my iPhone, it appears to have multiple colors yet I think because of the brightness and my iPhone image it doesn’t show that orange truly truly amazing experience

I just turned onto Hayworth St in Port Charlotte, Fl on 1/5/2023 at 9pm when my granddaughter and I witness a circular object with bright lights in the sky. The object had steady bright lights with one on each side hovering over the area not moving for about 3 mins. Just when I thought to get my phone out to record, it disappeared so fast.

I was just outside on a clear night talking on the phone and saw out of the corner of my eye what I initially believed to be a shooting star. Once I focused on it I was in disbelief. It was a definite triangular shaped craft flying slowly and silently from the north to the south with very dim amber lights that I could visibly see on three corners. It was too large to be a drone (probably from my vantage point 40’ wide) and made absolutely no sound.

The oval disk with lights around it suddenly came into our view and hovered in the distant Northern sky above the canal tree line behind our house (50 miles away or more?), and it had orange or red lights around the circumference. Some kind of government space training above Cape Canaveral or St. Patrick’s Air Force base?

I was watching the birds fly in the sky and noticed 2 bright lights that were very close to one another but connected which looked like a tick tack. I watched it float in the sky at a very slow pace. There was even a commercial jet that flew much closer to me and underneath it. There was no sound and no contrails. It just kept moving until it was out of sight. I video taped it with my phone.

We were on a plane on the way to Fort Lauderdale, FL. I am aware that whenever the plane is about to land they go a little out south to the ocean and make a turn around. First thing that felt odd was that the plane went really far out, we were having a lot of turbulence and people started to get scared. At this point I am looking out the window but I do not see anything since it’s very cloudy and we are still high in the sky. The turbulence continues and then the plane comes down and the sky is clear, pitch black, time at this moment is 11:53 PM. I noticed the plane out of nowhere started to accelerate tremendously. I’ve never been on a plane go that fast, specially when they are about to land. Anyways, I see people are recording and looking out the window so I do the same. When I look outside I see like 5 bright disks but at the end only 3 stayed. They were very close to the plane, I would guess around a little less than 100 meters. I could see so clearly, the colors they had, one of them was bright orange/red, the other one was kind of blue, and the other one kept lighting on and off, just a cool white color. They stayed flying by the plane, it seemed they could move so fast effortlessly and the plane was going at very very high speed. I stared at them for maybe 2 minutes and started recording! After we get out of this pitch black place and actually see some city lights they just disappeared and the plane was still going super fast. The plane never stopped or slowed down whenever we landed so I think it was trying to scape it. Flight Details: Airline: Silver Airlines Flight: 3M 69 Date: December, 27, 2022

Hovered low abt 4-6 stories high, helicopter sound with loud engine, no blades seen, all red lights and circled around same location and pattern. Much much larger than a drone. My area doesn't have towers so, objects can fly very low here. I tried to record it, but could not. I don't what the heck that thing was. Very concerning.

Probable conventionalKey West (out on the boat- "Atlantic Coastal Plain", FL
witnesses on boat- two girls on a fishing trip with other men, girls dad and girls friend, said group of people frequents the keys for vacation let it be mentioned that in total there would be 7 men and two girls. Men saw the object but were a little more skeptical however admitted it was weird weird, beautiful sunset, the object kept getting lost in the sunset almost? Im sorry I wish I could be more detailed but I think the videos and photos will do the heavy lifting. EDITED- this is my second report, I just realized I completely did not check off the authorization box on my last report. I will resubmit it with authorization if you think that is necessary [NUFORC annotation: Contrail - Probable]
