Lawton (between Lawton and Duncan, hwy 7 west going east), OK
We saw it a second time a few minutes later; it did the same thing, except this time, it fell into the trees and made a burst of light.

I just purchased a night vision setup, with a digital video recorder. I was messing around recording the night sky looking towards the NE for about 5 mins and then went on my computer to check the footage. I discovered while watching this back a white circle object on the center right hand side of my computer screen dart in and out, about a total of 1 second. I have watch this footage on other devices and still remains and dosent appear to be a glitch or pixilation.

Vineland, NJ
hello, i wanted to report something that concerned me that i saw last night. im not sure if there was any scheduled testing or rocket launches last night for nasa or any agencies but i couldn't find any on the news. I live in South NJ. Around 10pm i was in east vineland at a friends farm covering his plants for the frost. Its open farm fields so the view is good. after we were done we began walking back to the house when i noticed a strange orange glow in the distant western sky just above the horizon but very far away. Thought it might of been an distant airliner at first, but there were no blinking lights and the color was odd. It reminded me of the nasa launch last year from va which i could clearly see from my location as well. It climbed in altitude very quickly and covered that large distance away and was soon over the southern sky looking up at it at about a 45 degree angle and then was soon way out over the ocean heading in an east south east direction. You could see the engine flicker and flame out just like the nasa launch when it the stage burned out. This occurred near the coast. I thought it was interesting since i hadnt heard of any launches. But what concerned me was about 5 minutes later we saw another one, came from the same direction and headed the same way, only it flamed out somewhat sooner over land but was still very high up by that point. Then about 5 minutes later we saw 3 orange lights glowing way off in the distance same area again and they flew across the sky in the same direction, followed by 2 more not far behind it, then one more then one more that appeared to go up and then looked as if it was slowly coming back down but may have been going west giving that appearance as if it was coming down, by that point we all were like whats going on and went in the house to check the news, i was concerned with all the stuff on the news some war had started or something. Not sure if its some new jet there flying with rocket engines, or what. But they were not shooting ! stars or any aircraft. Witness elects to remain anonymous; provides little contact information. PD

Sacramento, CA
We were on our back porch and in the sky were three red orbs, with no streaks or tails, traveling slowly from East to West. They did not blink, nor was there any sound. They each slowly faded out and once they were gone there was what appeared to be a parachute that drifted in the westerly direction, until it was out of sight.

Georgetown, TX
I was standing on my back porch about 4:30 pm, and spotted a UFO flying over my house, from South to North, at an extremely high rate of speed. I estimate the altitude to be between 2000 and 3000 feet. I saw what looked like a burst of smoke or a short contrail twice from the rear and once from the front, all of which quickly disappeared. The object was spherical in shape, appeared to be silver in color and made no sound. It never changed course and I lost sight of it over my roof after about 10 seconds. I am a retired Army aviator, and the object did not look like a conventional aircraft of any kind. I thought it might be a drone, but not like one that I have ever seen.

Columbus, OH
While driving south on Maple Canyon (about 50 yards north of the Dublin-Granville Rd intersection) I came to a stop due to a red traffic light. A flash of white light ahead in the clear blue sky caught my eye, at first thinking it was an airplane. By judging the distance/height of the object, I would place it somewhere around 15,000 ft in the air, appearing to be about the diameter of 1.5-2 commercial airliners. The white light (circular/oval shape) became smaller (about half the size), returned to its original size, then with a flash of chrome suddenly appearing (as if turning or changing shape and reflecting sunlight possibly), a thinner flat shape became visible and without the white circular/oval light. While still stopped due to traffic, I never lost focus of the object, but it then completely vanished. No trails visible anywhere near where I witness the object, only clear blue skies. The duration of the event was 10-15 seconds.

My experience with this cloud was out of this world. Personally I had been going through some things. Defeated and heartbroken something said look out the window. Unaware of the beautiful present the awaited me outside, I looked out the window and was immediately mesmerized. The cloud had 2 contrails coming from it, my first reaction was is something going to crash? Once I noticed the this was not a cloud and something was going on I grabbed my phone and snapped two photos. Other than the contrails the cloud kinda just floated away, I called my family and told them I had experienced something very unusual, and I wanted to share my photo with the world. Something was watching me in my backyard and I don't know what it was! Photos of what appear to us to be contrails. PD

Germantown, MD
I was coming home from the hospital from visiting a friend at 10:30pm in Germantown, MD. I looked up and saw multiple silver circle shaped objects close together. They were couple thousand feet in the air, so I knew it wasn't drones flying. I knew it was airplanes because they were so many of them and they were close together. I counted 12 of them they were flying very slow and no noise at all. I tried filming this but my iPhone had poor quality. This lasted about 20 minutes, until they disappeared by clouds. This was my very first UFO sighting!

Riverside, WA
I live approximately 15 miles North of Omak, Washington (State), and about 25 minutes south of the Canadian border. At precisely 10:25 p.m. on April 7, 2017 - 13 miles north of Riverside, Washington, I was driving home (north) on Hwy. 97 when a blue streak of light went across the sky from right to left (east to west or NE to SW). It moved from 360 degrees north to approximately 300 degrees in two seconds. It would have been approximately 1/16 or smaller of the size of the moon. The head of the streak was round with the blue streak following and being parallel & connected to the round ball - example (lollipop). It was very low within the earth atmosphere and could have been just inside the border of British Columbia, Canada. Two of Okanogan County sheriff vehicles just passed me seconds before the streak appeared and so I am not sure if they noticed what my wife and I witnessed. If others saw what we saw, I would appreciate them filling out a report; thereby, verifying this event. We spoke via telephone with the individual who submitted this report, and we found him to be both eloquent, and serious-minded, in his description of his sighting. We suspect he is a very good, and very reliable, witness. PD

Highland, UT
Noticed a lot of lights in the sky and thought, boy, there's a lot of airplanes out tonight. There were airplanes, but I saw a faint blue light moving at high speed underneath the clouds. I looked around and saw few faint blue lights and wondered if they were connected as one large craft, because they were separated by quite a distance. The distance of separation would have been at arm's length, if you held your hand out, arm stretched, in front of your face. At first I thought they were in trying other patterns, because there was three of them I saw period, but then I realized they were separate. I looked around and there were a whole bunch all around the entire sky all headed due north over Lone Peak mountain. Each one was a faint small blue looking light moving at high speed coming much faster than an airplane moves. They could have been military drones but they were moving so fast, and it was clear their agenda was to travel due north at a very high speed. There was a whole swarm of them that travel from as far as the eye could see from the south end of American Fork City, over Highland City, and then over Alpine City and over the Lone Peak mountain. I walked outside as the last of them we're traveling from the south end of American Fork Andover Lone Peak mountain. I probably conservatively counted 20 to 25 of them. But I think there was a lot more! I've never seen so many objects in the sky at once traveling so quickly and One Direction. They were a very faint dim blue color, they weren't too difficult to see but the color of the sky, clouds and sunset made it more difficult to see them and they seem to blend in more. There were low-lying clouds and they were below the clouds and traveling up and through the clouds, and disappeared out of sight as they flew over Lone Peak Mountain headed north. Their blue light was constant and was not blinking. The color of blue was a very faint navy blue. They appeared like small craft, and seem to all be moving in a swarm, separated by the aforementioned distance when your hand was outstretched towards the sky. The strange thing was is that it was very windy outside, they did not seem to be affected by the weather or wind at all, especially given how small they appeared to be? I had my cell phone camera with me, but realized that it would be pointless to try to take a photo because they were so faint against the sky and would likely not show up. So I didn't bother.

Williams, AZ
Event started in the night sky with the appearance of three bright lights, forming an almost perfect upside-down triangle, just North of Orion's Belt in the North-West sky. The triangle lights were of equal brightness and were too far apart to be from a single craft. The upper two lights would take turns moving in and out of formation for a good twenty minutes before cloud cover obscured them. About thirty minutes later red and white lights started to appear and move in strange and an unconventional like manner in the North-West sky. This was just North of where the upside-down triangle had appeared. The lights were many and zig-zagging in all directions. Later two military jets came in from the south and the strange lights just bounced all around the two jets. Eventually, they disengaged and headed back south towards Phoenix. By the look of their aviation lights they were probably F-16s. About ten minutes later another jet came in from the South-East. This single military jet look like an F-22 from its aviation lights. It headed in the direction of were the strange lights had last been seen. Amazingly, by the time this military jet had reached the location of the strange lights, the lights were gone. The fighter must have stayed in the area for a good amount of time before it also headed South. Later in the evening the three bright lights were back in almost the same location but the triangle was now pointing up with the lower left light being the brightest of the three. On a normal day or night, we have a lot of commercial East-West flights over our territory but not on this night. During all this activity there were no commercial flights in the sky to be seen. When I checked the commercial FFA flight logs on-line, all West and East bound flights had been diverted North towards Las Vegas; and, South towards Phoenix. The dogs and coyotes in the neighborhood had been making noise for days. Last night it was dead silence all night.

Paso Robles, CA
I was driving home, was dark and stormy out. I looked out to the right of my car, above the mountain range where I noticed 3 bright orange lights hovering. They almost looked like fireballs. They moved slightly back and forth then another object appeared, the same bright glowing orange. It swooped around a bit as the others hovered. It then split into two forming another glowing flying object. They flew around in a random pattern not leaving that specific area. Two more bright orange lights appeared right above them and hovered for a couple of minutes. One of the lower objects disappeared leaving six bright glowing flying objects. I pulled my car over to take a picture and then they were gone. It was a truly strange experience, it was not normal and definitely not something that anyone would see everyday. I do believe whole heartedly that I truly saw a UFO.

While we were trying to figure out what it could be, It literally disappeared. It didn't just vanish but the object became distorted by what I can best describe as heat shimmer. Like what you see from a jet engine. After about 2 seconds, it was gone. It was a crystal clear blue sky, and not a single cloud in sight.

Craft was not metallic, but looked white, with what appeared to be black accents. No windows were visible. The craft seemed to be at the altitude that general aviation aircraft fly. It had no wings, horizontal or vertical stabilizers. It maintained a straight line motion (no turns) from a south direction towards the north. We could not determine the speed of the aircraft. We were driving north on Hiatus Road and the craft was to the west/southwest of our car. By the time we cleared some trees that temporarily blocked our view, the craft had disappeared. The weather was clear, bright sunny day.

New Iberia, LA
It was almost 5:50 AM when I went out my back door and into the garden to water my plants. This time of day is usually very dark outside and sunrise would be approaching in about 30 minutes. I usually look at the stars as soon as I come outside, but this morning a bright ball of light immediately caught my eye. At first I stood on my step staring and thinking how odd. My brain ran through many possible reasons why I could see this bright round shape; is there a planet really close to us, was it a search helicopter in the distance, a weird street light off in the distance, anything that I could think of. I stepped of the step and walked closer to the fence to see if I could get a better angle, possibly giving it a reference point or position. It looked to be past the bayou, and possibly past the park. Then it moved, very swiftly to the left and up. I froze blinking my eyes. Immediately telling myself no, nope, there is no way you are seeing things. Then it moved again to the right. Now I am retreating back to my steps. I stood there staring and then I checked the surrounding sky. I could see stars, street lamps, trees, everything as normal, but nothing was as large as this object. Then the moment came when I thought to myself, does it know that I am staring at it? I shook my head a! nd went back inside, almost had my daughter come outside to verify it. I decided against that notion, I didn't want to worry her and also it was time for her to leave for school. Made sure she was ready and out the door and I went right back outside to the garden to see if it still was there. It was and this time I took photos. I noticed in the photos it is not as prominent or as large as it was to me standing there. I moved to a different spot to gain a better angle. Still it sat in the same spot. As the sun started to rise i thought that it would disappear into the light within a few minutes. Minutes passed and I could still see it just as clear and now with little shimmers of metal. The object stayed the same shape the whole time, and no lights flashed that I saw. I started to water my garden and try and watch it at the same time. I noticed that it started to move up and I had to reposition a few times to track it through the trees. Then it slowly moved right more and then some more. I watched this object for nearly an hour, taking photos and video clips periodically. Around 7AM, I went back into my home where I was for about 30 minutes. When I came back out it was nowhere to be seen. It was eerily quiet that morning. Usually there are people out, lots of wildlife wandering in and out of backyard or the neighbors. No squirrels, raccoons, cats, dogs, opossums, children, trash trucks, work trucks... nothing. I waited to read about it from other people in the paper, local blogs, texts, instagram, something. No one said anything, and I felt awkward telling anyone. It was there large, round, brilliantly bright and quiet on a very still morning for at least an hour that I knew of.

Blinding purple, Orange, and Green light Flashing for about 5 minutes over the south west area of the community area near Vanderbilt and 951CR. The phenomenon lasted approximately 5-7 minutes, during which i could not move or otherwise seen anything other then a disk like UFO hovering over the Cow Field to the Southeast and one to the Southwest of my area. After the light started to fade i was able to move about and saw that there where about 6 more disk like objects hovering over and slowly disappeared into the Night Sky. Sundenly the Clouds Started to form and show up as of a storm was going to happen. This is one of 4 times this has happened in the past year or so.
