Peyton, CO
Originally thought it was live fire practice but these lights were hovering and moving in ways the do not match what live fire would do and there was no sound. Husband and I both have video of the event. After about ten minutes the lights disappeared altogether. Drove by Peterson AFB the next morning to see if anything could have made the lights, but there are no towers high enough, large enough or bright enough to have made them.

Colorado Springs, CO
The light objects varied from 2-6 (i.e. some would disappear/reappear, maybe like a flare). The color was orange/yellow. There was movement, which included upward movement. The location was East of I25 possibly between North Gate Rd & Interquest (re: just outside the USAFA). I reported to the USAFA. and stated I would guess it was amateur drones and told them I have video footage. However, they have not requested the video footage from me. It appeared there was a triangular pattern, but the lights disappearing/reappearing could be movement on an axis.

St. Augustine, FL
I submitted a sighting for St. Augustine for 3/15/17 regarding a huge triangle shaped UFO. I was outside last night again around 10:10 with another person and the exact same object flew over again, roughly 10 lights to a side on the "V". flying south to north parallel to U.S. 1. this was in St. Augustine south. could not make out the body of the thing but again the stars blanked out as it passed leading one to believe it was one solid object. this was also seen by someone with me who is probably the biggest skeptic on the planet. he was startled by it and did not have an explanation for this. he believes now. as far as size is concerned, a best guess by both of us is "several hundred feet".

Medford, OR
At the closest it was only about 3 blocks away. Alternating colors of blue and red and would occasionally turn ultra violet of maybe had camouflage. It was twice the size of a jet and could accelerate at inconceivable rates and stop on a dime and hover for several minutes. It finally left by shooting off into the distance in just an instant, disappearing on the horizon. Source of the report provides no contact information. PD

Rolla, MO
I saw one blurry orange and red, somewhat oval shape, fairly low in the sky, slowly approach from the northeast. I heard a soft, hum like engine. The shape moved across the sky at the same altitude and then it rapidly, more rapidly than I have ever seen anything ascend, went up into the sky at an angle and disappeared in maybe 2 to 4 seconds.

I was sitting on my front porch swing. Two neighbors were walking by on the sidewalk. I saw a red and orange, somewhat blurry, but brighter in the center, oval shape drop a little from the northeast, and then appear to “cruise” at the same altitude. I heard a low humming noise. I asked the neighbors, “Do you see that? What is that?” They stopped and looked up and saw it, too. It seemed at first to be “cruising” at a constant speed, and then abruptly changed direction, and within seconds disappeared at an angle toward the stars. I think the most unique thing about it was the rapid escalation up into the night sky that just took seconds. (My father worked for USGS). ((sic. USCG))

Chandler, AZ
I was sitting on my balcony last night around 8pm-9pm. I looked up in the southeast sky and started seeing orange reddish balls of light. Some in formation others on their own. They were going from west to east and what looked like up as opposed to down but gradually not fast. I ran inside to get my mother and her phone to take pictures. It lasted about 15 minutes to half an hour. My mother saw the same objects. No reports on the news or internet. Others must have seen them they were very apparent.

Houston, TX
When I returned inside to look at them; I noticed an object near the sun at its 10:00 position. I pinched zoomed on the object and was shocked to see some type of unknown object. The sun is actually casting its light on the object from an angle it is from the sun. We suspect lens flares, caused by pointing a camera at a bright source of light. We have not received the photos, so all we can do is guess. The witness elects to remain anonymous, so we are unable to contact him/her. PD

Forest, VA
On March, 20th, 2017, at 6:15 am my husband and I went out to smoke a cigarette before I left for work. When we walked outside, my husband quickly asked me if I can see those lights hovering over a house across the street, and of course, I see the lights, there was three or four rows of white lights that made the shape of a rectangle tower. I ran inside to get my phone because the lights started moving upward very slowly. When I came back out, I watched it slowly move into the sky, and I started filming. In my video you can see a white light, that now only looks like a tiny ball move in a jumping pattern, very quickly and then disappears. I can also see a type of aura trailing behind the object. At first after this happened, my husband and I thought drones were spying on the house it was hovering over, but after going back and watching the video, it makes us both think it's not a drone, plane, or helicopter. Those type of aircraft can not move in that way. We have not seen anything else strange accure since then, but every morning, I find myself freaked out when going in to work. I'm not sure what we saw, but neither of us can explain what it is we saw, maybe someone else may have some insight on if this could be a drone or a UFO ??? The whole incident lasted for about 30 min. My husband had been outside 20 to 30 min. before I filmed, and saw the lights then. He said he kept wondering what they were and then he finally asked me what I thought when I went outside with him. I think he knew something wasn't right from the start, but just needed confirmation from another person. You never think, hey I'm going to see a UFO today, so this had to all settle in!

Berlin, CT
My house is facing Silver Lake in Berlin for the past 6 months I'm seeing a light in the sky is steady it can be like that for days or few hours and it just goes away I'm just wondering if anyone else had a experience of this. One of the examples this was bothering me for hours so I decided to show my husband by the time I dragged him to see it the light was no where to see it for long time he was telling me it's a star till I proved him wrong that all the other stars are there where is the closest light that we saw. This goes on for days sometimes it's not there at all Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Noticed 3 dots in the west sky. Would show up every night for a week. I cross checked for planets and found nothing checked for known satellites found nothing. They would appear about an hour after dark and stay till I stopped watching. Same area each night. Didn't move

They stayed in the same spot for 90 minutes while the two that joined them kept leaving and coming back. Helicopters came and kept circling them they started to move farther away. We have pictures.

First you couldn't see it, then one side of it lit up with a light that looked to vibrate and right after that light dimmed another light came on which looked like a camera flash. I felt as though we were having our pictures taken. Video to follow, if I can get my hands on it.

At first my sister-in-law thought they were lights on Paris Mountain, and as we got closer she said that they are not lights on the mountain, because they were moving, lower then an airplane, going in line and heading in a SW direction. They stood still in their course and began to rise up into space and finally disappeared. We pulled over during the event, it was a very bright area, I took a picture and video. We have requested that the witness forward the photos and video. PD

5 silent, grayish, triangle crafts, flying in a "V" formation. This is the second time I've seen them. No trails behind them at all like normal planes or crafts either. Absolutely no noise, moving very quickly at low altitude.

Van Nuys, CA
Several items flying in formation moving very fast in the night sky, disappeared into light cloud cover, east to west direction no sound, not brightly lit, light grey in color. Diamond pattern on left of 4 objects with an additional line of 3 objects to the right. Objects stayed in in relative position to each other during sighting. Objects appeared to be somewhat oval. I am very familiar with the night sky and various normal items that one would see, this was not normal and to silent and too fast to be of terrestrial origin.

I went outside to see if the sky was clear enough to do some observing with my telescope. I looked to the south & saw what I thought were 2 stars, when the lower one changed color from white to orange/red, when it began to move upwards in the direction of the top star (which I later identified as Sirius). As it moved closer to Sirius, it started to dim, until it went out altogether.

Phoenix, AZ
I was driving west on US-60 on trip to Sky Harbor Airport and noticed a bright silvery cylinder shaped object over, I believe, South Chandler. I was in the distance... Based on a thin cloud bank I would place the altitude at about 8000' so it must have been large. I first saw it at the 10 o'clock position. I first thought that it was sunlight on a jet contrail, but as it became larger I thought that it may be a plane on approach to the Mesa Gateway Airport... then it began to recede to the southwest... I almost wrecked the car trying to watch it. There have got to be hundreds of witnesses, because it was very prominent... It then drifted back into the thin cloud layer and I thought it was gone, but it was bright enough to shine through... Then from a cylinder it then appeared as two equally sized globes just touching each other... I had to watch my driving so looked away briefly and thought it had moved away, but you could still see it behind the thin cloud... at one point it appeared to emit a curving smoke trail... then that stopped and the two globes began to sparkle... I again resumed driving.... the next time I had a chance to look up it was gone... There absolutely have to be other witnesses to this. It was still daylight and this thing was prominently in view. This thing was bizarre. I checked today's local news.... nothing... but then saw a video on you-tube that showed it... Only at the point where it was two globes. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Addendum to 3/20/17 submittal regarding the 3/19/17 incident... The cylinder was situated at a 30% tilt, higher side to the left. Object's length was approximately 7 times its width. US 60 runs exactly east/west... this object was at the 10 o'clock position. It was nearly sunset. There are always contrails in the very busy skies...they were all orange and this object was silvery white. The spheres that It turned into were pretty much the same width as the cylinder appearance, but occupied 1/4 the length of the original cylinder. It is possible that it was two cylinders side by side that turned so as to make it appear as two spheres... just a guess. The object stayed double-sphere in appearance until it receded to the southwest... emitted a sinuous smoke emission from the left side of the left sphere which dispersed almost immediately... the object was receding slowly... then it began to sparkle with lights brighter than the initial silvery white appear! ance… I looked away for not more than 10 seconds...when I looked back it was no longer visible. It is impossible than no one else saw this... as it was fairly large with an apparent width of your index finger at arms length at its narrowest and was slightly larger upon my initial observation. I am a major sky watcher, and I am certain this had no astronomical explanation. Bizzare… Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Forest Grove, OR
Hovering light in distant sky south of Forest Grove, OR. This is the 3rd occurence I have observed early in the morning (usually around 3am) object meanders about lazily left & right for a good amount of time. It is very well lit for its size. Previous sighting included a smaller object directly below with flashing red/green markers. Object was doing a good job maintaining a position (6 hundred+ est. feet) below the larger lit object. If brightly lit object moved, then the green/red object would too as if on a long string hanging far below. Whatever it is it seems as if this is a regular occurence. Happy hunting Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
