North Port, FL
Small, pulsating light seen just over tree line but up much higher, light frantically moved side to side and up and down but remained in the same general area. Lights brightened and dimmed ranging from red to blue and occasionally purple, a plane was traveling right towards the light, but then when it seemed as though they would collide, the light moved out of the flight path, eventually it seemed to dim and stopped changing colors, then slowly faded. both observers, are sober, with good eyesight.

Tarpon Springs, FL
Observed a light moving across the sky above Tarpon Springs, FL, on 4/11/15 from the south east to the NNW direction. The whole event took about 5-6 minutes and ended at 21:15. I thought it was a falling star or meteor at first moving across the sky because it was so high up, but it had slower, steadier pace than either of those. There were no other visible lights on it. I made my husband come outside and look at it because I thought it looked strange. Then it turned around. It went back almost the exact way it came. It crossed the entire view of horizon available to me in about 3 minutes, so it had to of been extremely fast. Just before it disappeared from my view, I saw a very small streak of light. I then checked my phone to get the exact time.

Flagler Beach, FL
These objects were lights appearing as if they were flares dropped from aircraft. A string of lights appeared and slowly faded, but not in sequential order of appearance. When first seen they appeared in a line leading toward the Atlantic shore. They seemed to come from an aircraft. A sound similar to a jet aircraft was briefly heard, but not throughout the event. Lights appeared in a line approaching the coast, but none seen deployed over land. I have I-phone video. Lat 29°30'22.94" N Long 81° 7'8.17" W approximate location.

I would like to report an orb like object that was on a hd camcorder video while sky fishing. It was bluish tint in color and was found when reviewing video. I have taken some screenshots for you to see. I had the camera zoomed to 12x at the time it came out of a cloud. Thanks. One of several similar reports and photos from the same source, between April 13, 2015, and May 27, 2015. We strongly suspect that the objects photographed are not UFOs, but we cannot be certain. PD

Lady Lake, FL
Strange round blue light shot upward instead of downward to upward. It shot up super fast and at first I thought it was a meteor until it suddenly moved in a bizzare pattern and slowed down as I was pointing at it trying to figure out what it was. Then it suddenly slowed down a little, and went horizontal as it flew over head above my house, it moved extremely fast when it first shot across the sky, way too fast to be a plain or drone. Than it slowed down some, and flew quietly above head and I couldn't see it past the big oak tree after it passed that. I went back out there hoping to see it again, nothing, but I did see a meteor typical meteor, nothing special there. Whatever I saw is gone. It was just one big blue light circle. I really wish it would come back. I did not see multiple lights on it or anything. Just one big blue light and round in shape. The first one I know was NOT a meteor, and I'm certain you will be getting more reports about this. I'd be surprised if you didn't.

Ormond Beach, FL
I was visiting my cousin at her condo in Ormond Beach. Her place is on the ground floor directly across the street from the ocean. There were no stars in the sky. I saw what appeared to be a lightning flash in the distance. Then in the same space I saw a very bright light. I thought it was too bright for a star and it seemed to be moving towards me. I tried to film, but all I had was my cell phone and I am not good at using the video. Anyway I did not get any pictures, just a black screen. I watched for around 30 minutes and actually felt quite nervous. Suddenly two guys came up the stairs off the beach and startled me. I closed the shutter and went to bed.

Siesta Key, FL
My brother and I walked to the beach in Siesta Key FL from our room at the Jamaican Royal at about 9:45pm on 4/3/15. I started observing the sky once we arrived and I saw what I believe to be an airplane NW of my location. The plane looked very far away. It was below Orion's Belt but above the horizon line. This is not the object in question. I was almost constantly staring at the sky/stars since we arrived, when at about 10:01pm I suddenly noticed to the left of the airplane that a bright red glowing ball of light was just suddenly there in the sky. If I had a ruler in my hand at arms length it would have been about a foot away from the airplane and to the left of it, at the same elevation. I did not witness it enter my field of view by crossing the horizon line or anything else; there was no red light in the sky, then I look left, and when I look to my right again it was suddenly there. It did not have any flashing lights on it, it was rather a single ball of red glowing light that once I noticed it seemed to be moving down the coast line NW to SE at a brisk-to-moderate pace through the sky. As for its elevation in the sky, it was also above the horizon line but below Orion's Belt. The object was at first moving in a straight line and I thought it was some odd airplane that I had never seen before; one that only had on one bright light. About halfway through my sighting it began a very slow and gradual slope upwards, although kept to its general direction of movement. I started thinking to myself, that I have never witnessed quite such a light in the sky before; I have worked at two airport's in times past. I said to my self, "If it disappears suddenly, only then do I know I have never seen anything like this before." About 15 seconds after completing that thought, the objects light started to pulsate slightly and dim until it just vanished in the middle of the sky. The time from which it began to dim/pulsate to when it vanished was about 10 seconds. The entire duration from when I first noticed the object till it vanished was about one min 45 seconds. I find it odd that the object never made a sound as it seemed to come closer to us. The entire event was eerily silent. Once the object vanished I knew I was looking at something I had never seen before in person and it is my interpretation that the ball of light was a UFO.

Stationary light in the sky over Pomano Beach, Florida. Inland about 5-10 miles. Lights look like 3 in sequence tight. Thought was a star or landing plane. Object hasn't moved at all.

Kissimmee, FL
1 Fire looking object, no sound. It was moving at a rapid pace in one direction. Was not a balloon. After moving toward the Orlando International Airport, it suddenly vanished. We have lived 5 miles south of the airport for 28 years. We have been married 32 years. We are in our 50's. A normal couple with adult kids and a nephew who is Secret Service to the Vice President. We are not nuts. This past week we have seen one of these objects 2 times. We have seen the fire balloons in the past as well, so we do know the difference, this was not one of them. There was no drifting, it was in a strait line at a rapid pace, and suddenly was gone, not at the horizon, but gone midair. There was no wind, and no clouds or weather issues.

Miami Lakes, FL
Single solid bright yellowish light was moving north of us in the direction of west to east, looked similar to Betelgeuse in intensity and color, except more of a pearly yellow with a white tinge. It moved slowly across our sky and before it completely vanished. It traveled for about 60 seconds, and it didn’t make it past my home which was 7 feet to my left before it disappeared. The horizon was not visible due to my single story home.
April 2, 2015 · 7:20 AM · FORMATION
Naples, FL
Early in the morning, I was driving down a major road when I saw several lights in formation in the sky. As I was driving down the road, which lasted only 5 minutes at most, the lights changed in brightness and moved slightly. At one point, the formation was reminiscent of Orion's belt. This was early in the morning as the sun was coming up, so it was not a cloud, not airplanes (because those don't look like a star), and probably not stars because they moved and increased in brightness. I was able to take a picture when I was stopped at an intersection.

Eustis, FL
We live in the rural area east of Eustis, Fl. The stars were out and I spotted a line of lights toward the west just above the tree line from my window it looked to be a mile or so away from me just south of the ocala forest close to Lake Norris. Im not sure of the angle Im guessing 33 degrees, but it was not a helicoptor or airplane. It was just hovering in one spot for about 30 minutes then the clouds got in my view but it was still there. I did not watch any longer and my husband was going to sleep so he would not get up to see it. the next thing I heard was him snoring. I have seen lights above the Black Water Creek on Lake Norris road before but it has been about 20 years ago or more. I was riding in a car going over the creek and looked up and saw lights like a huge airplane just hovering over the creek and bridge. It was massive but could not really believe my eyes an figured I was seeing things.

Niceville, FL
Heading south on Hwy 85 just after the Hwy 123 junction. On the south side of the road, above the treeline. A large circular craft was hovering above the trees and then quickly faded into the fog. It was approximately 1/2 mile away and approx. 12-15 feet across. Dark bluish/gray in color. Once I drove past the fog, I looked back only to find that it was gone.

Boynton Beach, FL
I was sitting with my parents on their back porch and my dad pointed out a strange object in the sky. We all walked out further into the yard to get a better look, and I immediately took a picture, and then started recording it on my phone. The object looked like an orange ball of fire. At first my dad thought an airplane was on fire, but then pointed out there was absolutely no noise coming from it at all. It moved very slowly in our direction and wasn't making any erratic movements. Once it passed overhead it quickly ascended (not lightening bolt fast, but just a relatively hurried steady pace) and the light became dimmer, until we finally lost sight of it. I can provide the picture and video I took upon request.

Yellowish light moving across the sky at a high rate of speed made a quick circle into a zig zag then quickly back in the direction it came from.
