It wasn't too visible with the eye at the moment. I only noticed 2 days after as I re checked my photos to post them up on facebook. Behind me in a photo is what seems to be a ufo submerging into the Hudson River behind me. Idk what it can be, my friends who dont believe say its a reflection from a building or the water. I believe I caught something extraordinary and unbelievable, who knows what lies out there!

My friend and I watched it for about a minute or so and the orange light split into two lights, hovered for half a minute or so and then vanished.

Last night I was up in bed just reading a book for school, when a slight noise caught my attention. My senses are always on high at night since I have a bit of a phobia of the dark, but when I glanced out my bedroom window a saw a strange light in the distance; hovering over the large field thats across from my house. I was a bit confused and at first just wrote it off as some sort of helicopter or airplane. But as I got up from my bed to observe the light closer I have reason to believe that it wasn't. The light was way to close to the ground to be a airplane and fidgeted/moved way to abruptly to be a helicopter; wasn't hovering like I assumed a helicopter would (also no noises that sounds like a helicopter, it was silent). The light itself was kinda a yellow-orange with a red colored tint that fluctuated around the edges of the light. It paced in the air for a moment before it was joined by another matching light. They floated above the field moving about a! nd what looked to be lights shiny down from them onto the field (like floodlights!). They continued to move above the field before one of them either faded out of moved away (couldn't tell but it just started to get fainter) and then the other one just disappeared a few minutes after (just disappearing right of the back, not like the other one who faded). My dog, who had been sleeping downstairs, had been barking off and on contiunesly in the night. And at first I would have written this off, but considering how late she stayed up barking (much later then she usually does) I have reason that she might've been effected by these lights. Though I do have to admit that she is a bit senile, so I wouldn't take her actions at the upmost proof. I went to bed last night confused but woke up feeling normal. I WISHED I HAD TAKEN PICTURES DAMNIT.

I was standing outside with my wife when we witnessed several red lights traveling from North to South while appearing to shoot out a trail ahead. This happened 4 times before the objects disappeared. There was no sound or smell with these. Each of these appeared equidistant apart.

Hamilton, AL
Me and my wife were headed south on hwy 43, approximately 4 miles north of Hamilton, AL. I saw a white (side view) cigar shaped object flying east over Hamilton for a brief second, I could not see a tail rudder shape and it was fairly low and level, also as large as it was, I should have been able to see that feature which I didn't. I immediately was telling wife what i saw and was watching to the east best I could while driving. Then she started pointing up above tree line, and said she saw a triangular shaped object hovering, and it was white, and now approx 2 miles North of town. I could not see it bc I was driving, so I got on brakes and started trying to pull over and turn around and she was telling me it was moving North north east now. I still had not seen it hovering or moving because I was manuvering the truck, however right behind the object was a twin prop military airplane, I assume, because it was a miitary green color, slowly flying same path as the white object.

Anchorage, AK
Large circular object, hovering right above tree line with white lights that blinked in a strait line, circling the object every 3 seconds or so, was very close with no sound moving side to side in a zig zag motion moving at a slower pace stopping periodically then would speed up erratically this occurred two morning in a row approximately 30 min apart from each other on the south side of Anchorage in the same exact spot.

Sitting on the front patio of our 11th floor condo in N. Myrtle beach, we would see one oval shaped orange/amber light appear out over the ocean--southeast from where we were. Another smaller light would appear to right a good distance away from the original object, then disappear. Then 3-4 smaller lights/objects would appear to the right of and close to the original larger light. Then all would disappear. About 5 -10 minutes later, the same process would repeat. This went on for about 30 minutes. We could not make out a definitive shape other than they looked like small orbs or balls of light from where we were. The larger light would sometimes move instantly to the left then back.

At first, a triangle of orange lights appeared in the sky over the ocean. It quickly faded into black. Three people witnessed this formation. Two more people joined our group, and after explaining to them what we saw, another orange light appeared in the sky. We al witnessed as one by one more lights appeared to the right of it in a straight line. After there were three lights shining at one time, when a new one would shine, the longest burning light would fade out. This went through about 8 or so lights before the lights disappeared, two more people joined our group, totaling the number of witnesses to 7. After around 7 minutes two groupings of lights appeared in the sky. They repeated the same pattern as the last grouping, however one disappeared quickly while the other lasted for about 15 seconds. Another light appeared yet again a few minutes later, but it disappeared before doing anything. Each sighting moved further and further south down the coastline.

I saw a red light in the sky that was too large to be a planet as I was heading to the store. To get a better look (because I was convinced I was looking at a plane or drone) I drove to view the object better. It was late, between 10:30 pm and 11:00pm. I pulled onto a dark street that overlooked a field were Kelton Elementary School once stood. As I watched, What I 1st thought was moving was in fact still. The object seemed to be glowing red (sometimes I thought I saw orange). The size kept changing..it seemed to shrink a bit. At one point the red light moved, slightly in a triangle shape. The red light was too far into the sky to be a drone. I did not notice any other lights in the sky, but for stars. It was making me crazy that I had no one to witness this, and my cell phone was dead. I suddenly saw 2 teenage girls in the field to my left. I shouted down to them and asked if they too could see the light from where they stood (I was up higher on the street, and the field was below me). At 1st they could not see it because they were looking in the wrong direction. Once they spotted it, they both yelled...what is that. All the sudden it began to shrink in size until it was gone..about 3 seconds. They both started shouting what was that..thanked me for showing to them..and I drove off. The light was too far away to be a drone and way too far in the sky. Too see my vantage point, you can google Key Stone Oaks High School, My Lebanon, PA. I was parked on Delwood Ave. in Dormont, PA. I'd say I was looking toward the Southern Sky when I saw it. This is driving me crazy!! What did I see?

Garden City Beach, SC
We were on an Ocean Front balcony when the first lights appeared. They were two shapes on the first sighting a set of four linear round orange balls and four to five orange sphere shaped of a slightly larger size. The lights were all on and then one by one went off. They were not flashing, they were solid in color. We were stunned. We waited and about 10 minutes later they appeared a little farther south over the ocean. This time they were two separate sets of round orange lights (no sphere shaped) that were perfectly linear, a dark space of the sky separating the two, which made it difficult to tell if two objects or one large. Each linear set was made up of 4 solid huge orange balls or orbs (we think, it's kind of fading in our mind, weird) They once again went black one by one and we never saw them again. We sky watched the remainder of the week with binoculars and video cameras.

Multiple very bright orange lights appeared in the South-eastern night sky. They would appear in a linear manner, almost like a formation, one brighter than the next, dimming in sequence. In a second sighting, occurring approximately 20 minutes later, we witnessed the same formation and orange lights, followed by one singular bright orange light appearing directly above the horizontal line of dimming lights. This one disappeared quickly. Each sighting lasted a relatively short period of time. Background of the observers: Six college students. One did not believe us until, we saw a second occurrence (see notes). For some reason, witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

I had gone outside with my boyfriend to have a smoke and look at the stars on a clear night as we usually do. We had quickly noticed a satellite, about 5 planes flying around some higher then others (which I found strange that there was so many planes in just that one section of the sky) and then there was this very bright light in the sky almost like a really big star, just a bright white light no color, flashing, sound or any visible form. It wasn't twinkling or moving but it stood out from all the other stars out that night like it didn't fit in. All of the sudden, about 30-45 seconds of us noticing it, it dropped straight down like it was landing possibly in the distance, there was no trail that came off of it no sound, no shake from impact as if it was a crash. Just a bright big star that fell from the sky in a very odd way.

May 15, 2017 at 10pm Myrtle beach, South Carolina. Several incidents that evening beginning at 2200. All incidents were observed over the Atlantic Ocean from a hotel room balcony. First incident: Three orange orbs and one smaller red orb in a straight line west towards observers. Then disappeared. Thirty seconds later another one appeared, but instead of coming toward observer, turned south then disappeared from view. Second incident: Fifteen minutes later, five orbs appeared to the north sky in an arc formation one at a time. All faded out at once. Third incident: Eastern sky three orange orbs in sequence. Then looked like the were move away then faded. Fourth incident: Away from these other incidents, there were five small white dots high in the sky, one separate and four in a cluster. The four darted around in a random motion then disappeared from view.

Tonight at 10:00 p.m., I went out to look at the stars and immediately saw what appeared to be a satellite moving from south to north. After 5 or 6 seconds it became very bright, then it dimmed and there appeared to be a much dimmer light shoot out from the bottom. A few seconds later it became bright again and a large burst of flame shot out in two directions and then it dimmed again. It moved along for another 6 to 8 seconds, became brighter and there was another burst of flame. It then dimmed and moved further north out of visual range. It looked very much like a satellite if not for the burst of flame and change in brightness. A few moments later, I saw another light, which was clearly a satellite with no bursting flames or changes in brightness.
