Bend, OR
My wife and I both saw over 27 lights, the size of stars or satellites, moving across the sky rapidly in V patterns. One fleet would pass, and then another batch would come out of the clouds and pass. It was mind boggling. Even our 2 year old baby was pointing at them and saying "moon, moon, moon".

Madison, WI
On Sunday, February 2nd, 2017, at exactly noon, I was walking near a lake in Madison, WI, and stopped to take photos of a jetstream in the sky. Upon returning home and examining the photos, I found there to be an unexplainable object in one of the photos, which I did not consider to be a dust orb or other lighting issue. I have emailed these photographs to the email address on this page. I did not actually witness anything at the time the photos were taken, but thought that by submitting my experience here you may be able to determine if the object in the photo is a UFO or something else. I thank you for your time in considering my query. Lens flare, caused by photographing the Sun. PD

Queen Creek, AZ
Reddish-orange circular object seen hovering in sky over the San Tan Mountains. Object moved closer in the sky, and appeared to be a chevron shape with red lights. Hovered over head and made no sound at all. I took a photo of the original red object and strange gray shape is seen to the right of the object as well. As object came closer and lower in the sky, a second red light appeared in the sky directly behind and to the right of original object. Original red object was hovering directly over my aunt and I...we were on horseback so it was difficult to keep looking without straining my neck. I was treating her to a birthday sunset ride and she said that my uncle would be watching the sunset and surely taking photos so we stopped watching and rode off. My family back at the barn noticed nothing but we're facing a different area of the sky. My aunt is a retired ((deleted)) manager now living in North Carolina. I am a licensed ((deleted)) in Gilbert, Arizona. I ride horses in this area often. On October 25, 2016, at 18:35 I saw a line of moving lights in this exact area of the sky.

Somerville, MA
Walking outside at 17:00 to dinner with family, looked up at the rising moon and noticed a bright object just to the left—looking exactly like a planet (size and brightness). On our walk to the car (about 100 yards) we looked up again. The object was now higher in the sky than above, which doesn’t make sense if it was a planet. Once we reached the car the brightness had diminished significantly. It actually looked to have disappeared…but upon closer focus there seemed to be multiple objects, smaller and dimmer. Luckily, I had a pair of 10x40 binoculars in the car. We got those out as quickly as possible and focused on the spot where the object(s) originally existed. This is when I noticed what looked like debris in the area where the object was originally. The largest “piece” of what was originally there started to fall toward earth. I shared the use of the binoculars with my wife. She verified that the object was there and falling toward earth. We kept watching until it vanished from our view.

After a few minutes I saw up to seven jets converging on the light. I counted their contrails. I lost the light while taking a bend in the road. It was gone by the time I was back in a good viewing area. The jets seemed to return to where they had come from to.

In Utah, not familiar with area. I was on Rte. 191, near mile marker 88, looking north. This light was very quickly pulsating various colors. Nothing else in the sky looked at all like this. After watching it for a moment, it appeared to travel east..,so I thought it was just a plane, however, then it stopped and reversed direction. Then it zoomed straight up at a very high speed. Then it went diagonally toward the west. It kept doing exactly that, zigging and zagging in all different directions. I looked at this light through an infrared night vision binocular and could see that this object appeared to be a ball of swirling energy, but also, I could see a few other objects in the sky in proximity to this light that appeared to sparkle for lack of a better word. We observed this for about 20 minutes or so until it zoomed straight up into the clouds and didn't reappear. There was NO sound. My feeling at first was excitement, then fear. That's when I looked at my phone to see what time it was and actually made a note in my phone of the exact time just in case something odd happened. Like was frightened, but couldn't take my eyes off of it. I tried several different means of recording it, but only my cell phone was able to record it.

Red and green light craft hovering in in the south, south west sky. Has been there for the past couple of nights. watched for approximately one and a half hours on an off last night until it finally flew towards the southeast out of sight. Noticed it again tonight at around 2130 and at 2220 is still visible to the south. Venus? PD

Flagler Beach, FL
I was on South Flagler Avenue by the Flagler beach police station in my vehicle, it was night time and it was approx. 18:40 hours. An extremely large black triangular object approached from the South West at approx 5-10mph and was approx 1.5 miles away from my location. I slowed the vehicle to idle to witness the object. The object appeared approx 2,500- 4,000 feet in the atmosphere at that time. At first sight, it appeared that the object was not on a horizontal plane. It appeared to be on more of a vertical plane. Upon first sight of this object i noticed 3 lights; they appeared similar to butterscotch in color. The object remained moving towards my location at 5-10mph. I noticed a vehicle in front of me heading north on Flagler avenue that had stopped to take pictures of the object. I brought my vehicle to a complete stop and got out of the vehicle and I continued taking photos with my Galaxy Note smart phone. The vehicle behind me heading south, pulled! over on to the right hand side of the road. The driver got out of the vehicle and appeared to be using a video camera (not a smart phone) and was capturing the object on video. The left side of the object passed directly above my head at what appeared to be 500-1000ft directly overhead. At that time, the object appeared to be approx. 500 feet in width and length and on a horizontal plane. Upon looking up I saw 3 lights that were visible, the lights were on each of the 3 points. The lights were recessed and cylindrical and did not have an aura. The light on the north east side, front forward moving, and the North West side, front forward moving were bright white. The light on the back side of the object or the Southside was blue. Directly underneath the object, in between the North West side white light and the South side blue light were approx. 15-20 spherical shape impressions on the underside of the object. The object was dark and the only reason I could tell it was tri! angular was because of the 3 lights, the 15-20 spherical shape! impress ions running in between the two lights. The object made no sound, no vibration and no other auditory sensory. The object appeared to keep moving at the same 5-10 mph and towards the north east. It did not change speed, vanish, dematerialize or change in any immediate direction; velocity remained the same with no immediate changes. Because I had stopped in the middle of the road and got out of my vehicle, due to oncoming traffic, I needed to get back into my vehicle as to not stop up traffic. I dropped my phone, picked up the pieces, got in my car and continued heading south on S. Flagler Avenue. I could see the object during my drive down S Flagler Avenue. I came to the 7th street stop sign and went east at which that point I lost sight of the object. I have spent many years at Whiteman Airforce base and have witnessed many B2 Stealth Bombers up close, directly overhead, on take off and on landing. They have a distinct sound and have a distinct design. This object was double or triple the size of a B2 Stealth and was definitely NOT a B2 and was NOT any aircraft I have ever seen. I have photos and if you have photos you can share please send to ((address deleted))@bellsouth.net. I will also share what I have.

St. Charles, MO
At approximately 1020 cst, when leaving a wedding, observed a flying craft flying in a straight line at approximately 100 mph away from St. Louis in a westward direction. The sighting was notable as the craft only had one visible light on the forward of the craft, which was red and blinking at a speed consistent with aircraft lights, and also because the craft made no sound, and also for the distinct shape- what appeared to be four regular trapezoids illuminated from below narrowing and tilting slightly upwards away from the craft, some 15 degrees upward. The trapezoidal wing elements estimated were possibly 10 feet long by 7 feet wide. Attitude is estimated at around 2000 feet. There was a local inversion layer as the moon were hazy that night. It was a fairly bright night and it is possible the orange illumination of the panels came from city light pollution. There were no other unusual sounds sights or behaviors witnessed in the city. Night is also considered significant in unknown way as I had a very, very, very! detailed dream some years ago of the wedding chapel interior, including seeing in detail several items, despite never seeing them before. The wedding was of the child of a friend of a family member, so it held no personal significance and was not noteworthy outside of the green beans, which were good.
