Worcester, MA

The UFO appeared to be green and round and was traveling from West to East. I believe it was lit up by the moon because it came from nowhere and disappeared after passing under the moon.

I noticed weird pattern of clouds after being really cloudy all day, on Ring camera so I went outside and to smoke and saw a bright ball of light hovering and getting brighter . I video taped it and zoomed in and the light from my camera triggered a green ball of light . It was not a normal picture of what I thought was the moon at 1st. It was something reflecting and then the wave of odd clouds came in to cover it. It was very strange . I have a video but it’s not letting me upload it

Ocala, FL

I was looking toward the northwest sky when I noticed two distinct, very bright lights that were at about 20º in the sky and maybe 25 miles or more away, As I observed the lights it seemed that they were a part of one extremely large unit which was massive in distance from one another (which was not visible to me). I was wearing an LED headlamp, which was on, and I decided to see if these lights in the sky were maybe some sort of vehicle that was aware of me watch the lights so I waved my hand across my headlamp in short and long passes a few times. I then saw the light turn off and on I a matching pattern. After about 10 minutes I watched the light compared to the surrounding sky of know aircraft that were flying over the northwest sky which lead me to believe that the lights I was looking at were not moving in any direction. Then the lights started to turn off and on in an alternating pattern without rhyme or reason and appeared to have many smaller colored lights underneath the other two main light which gave a shape of the bottom of a flattish bowl. At that point I believe I was looking at a UFO. Amazed I continued to watch the light as I thought about going inside and getting my phone to take photos, but I decided not too for fear of not seeing the lights again. After watch seem like 20 minutes the lights turn off for a few seconds then back on and then appeared to move away from it's location towards the NW sky in an extremely fast yet smooth arch and disappeared from view.

Sacramento, CA

There were three pairs of incandescent stationary aerial objects appearing like orbs in the distance but appearing more luminescent and diamond featured up close. There was no apparent suspension nor any apparent propulsion. The three closely grouped pairs formed an exponential graph shape. The shape descended from directly over the freeway to beyond the right shoulder. While higher in the sky, upon driving past, the pair directly over the freeway appeared quite close for an aerial object. This occurred before entering the area lit for construction on this portion of Highway 99. The coincidence of construction lights notwithstanding, these objects were like nothing else I’ve seen. They did not look like Chinese lanterns.

Torrington, CT

I am an amateur astronomer, I use a Sony DSC-HX400V 35mm for Moon shots. It zooms up to 100X optically, you can increase it to 200X digital. It's a pretty good camera. On Feb 8 I set up to take photos of the Moon. I turned it on and zoomed on the Moon until it nearly filled the camera's viewfinder, around 90X. At first I thought there was a black spot on the screen and touched it to wipe it off. Then I realized it was a black object between me and the Moon. I had the camera set on infinity, I got a very sharp image. It was cubicle, reminded me of our Moon landing vehicle back in the 60s except without legs. This object appeared to me to be in our atmosphere, probably the altitude of an airliner, and as large. It was moving upward at about a 75 degree angle. It was moving too slow to be an airliner, (which I have seen cross the Moon several times), and too steep a climb for a helicopter. I snapped the shutter, however I have a 3 second delay to allow the camera to settle, and by the time it snapped the object had passed into the darkness at about 2 o'clock. I am submitting a photo I took that night. I used a photo editor to insert the little black box to indicate the size of this object. It was a very brief sighting, but I got a sharp view of this object, it was not a plane or a helicopter.

Ely, NV

On a work trip heading towards Vegas with my coworker, I saw an object in front of the moon. Said item did look like a saucer, with visible contours of its structure, however, I still didn't think it could be a saucer. However, my focus remained on what this object could be, and the road I was traveling to ensure safe passage back to Las Vegas. After a few minutes of observing this object, I would eventually see it vanish from sight. Around this time I awoke my coworker with a "what the f**k was that" and told him everything that occurred.The object was like a dark beige color, and remained rather still as it stayed in front of the moon. The stillness exhibited by this object was part of the reason I thought it could be a small lenticular cloud. It is worth noting we were about an hour away from the fork to the extraterrestrial highway.

Cliffside park, NJ

I was having a cigarette on the roof of my apartment and above me to the ENE direction toward the New York city skyline almost directly above I witnessed a glowing star like object. This light would glow as bright as Venus or Jupiter though those planets were to the west of me on this night. The light would disappear for 10-15 seconds then light up again for a few seconds. The light would make no noise and was completely stationary. The sky was completely cloudless and the light was higher at least than any commercial aircraft.

Saint Marys, PA

I was driving along Washington Street in St. Marys and I saw a large, low hovering object in the sky. It appeared to be cylinder shaped with “wings”. It had multiple lights on it in a row and the lights flashed on and off. It was in my sight for about a minute until I drove too far away. There were others in my area that had reported seeing this as well in different parts of St. Mary’s.

Between Sacramento and Ione CA. Near Rancho Seco nuclear, CA

I was driving, at first I noticed a big circle shape of a couple of different colors of light. It was really clear and I cud see it well. The lights would change color and it was like darting around. I watched for a min. Then realized i needed to get a pic at least. While I was fumbling g with my phone, trying to keep my eyes on it and turn camera on it almost instantaneously shot west about 20 miles I think from above the city of ione to above Rancho Seco nuclear plant, and as it did the light blinked out the came back on but dull and thats when I got the video and recorded til it disappeared. It's taken me awhile to report because I can't believe what I saw was real and I didn't want to waste an investigators time, but what I saw wasn't normal. I wish the video was better and that I had video of what it was like before it went dull, it was huge and bright and clear.

Lutz, FL

At first I thought it was a plane and planes don't stay still for an hour and then I thought maybe it was a star with stars don't move and then move very fast extremely fast and then come back and stationary again in the night sky so then I thought well what the hell is it there's no there's no flashing lights there was no blinking at all it's just there it is and then all sudden it starts moving slowly away from us and then finally just disappears not like disappears like you know like a normal UFO would disappear but like a like something going further away from you disappear but there's no explanation for what the hell that is because if it was a plane we have some kind of flashing light on it and if it was a star you wouldn't be able to see the star before the clouds it was like it was in front of the cloud and the Stars don't block clouds Stars don't have a black mask behind it. Looks like a UFO to me pretty big UFO from where I was at taking that picture that have you pretty big and like I'll take pictures like that before it was like the Moon but that was no moon either phones don't block clouds!

Alsip, IL

I was outside smoking a cigarette with my brother in-law. I was looking north of my location in the sky talking about the comet with him when i got a strange feeling to look behind me. When i looked behind me to the south in the sky above my house i noticed a object that i can explain and a transparent long-bow. The object i can only explain as clear with a glow or aura similar to a halo around something. Like a see through cloak. But it bended light. It traveled east from the west but as it moved steadily it shifted into a square but the same glow around it. It is a clear night and i was still able to see the big dipper through the object. How i can explain it better is as a glass cup in your hand sideways in the air you can see through the glass but you still see the outline of the cup.

Logan, UT

I was walking towards my car in an easterly direction along Aggie boulevard (Utah State University campus) looking up at the Bear River Mountains. From my location, I had a view of the entrance to Logan Canyon and a partial view of the entrance to Dry Canyon (just south of Logan Canyon). At this point in time the mountain summits and valleys were covered in a thick dark cloud cover. The sky had little to no cloud cover just west of the mountains. I momentarily saw a large object, about the size of a small suburban home, fly through the clouds in Dry Canyon. It moved southwards across the canyon, then quickly upwards as it approached the southern side of the canyon. The object was obscured by the clouds, but I could make out a general grey diamond-like shape; however the boundaries seemed almost smudged. It seemed to have a partial faint red color to it as well. This occurred within seconds. I expected the object to emerge from the clouds and reveal itself as some kind of plane, however I did not see it again. It unfortunately happened too quickly for me to capture any form of video/images. I checked local flight radars about 10 minutes after the observation and did not find any local aircrafts flying through the area at that time/location.

Augusta, ME

Two round orb-like glowing objects came straight down from thin clouds. They hovered there for 30-45 seconds then went straight back up into the clouds. There was a plane flying as well but way ahead of the orbs.

Walland, TN

Driving home around 12:30 am my partner and I saw a red light. The light was not huge, but it was similar to a red light on a plane. Maybe three times the size. There was no blinking and it was stationary. Not much higher than the top of the mountain. In the left hand lane a blount county police suv was parked without lights, except the bar above lit with white. Very eerie.

Greenbrier, AR

Two C-130 were flying west to east in a line. The unknown craft approached very rapidly from the west and a little south behind the trailing C-130 and passed both C-130s within seconds. I have never seen a craft move at this speed. My view extended the entire horizon under very clear skies. No sound.

The object I saw was like a Fireball going upwards towards the moon. Within seconds the fireball disappeared but i could still see a object which appeared to go up for about 20 seconds more after the fireball disappeared , This object appeared to be white with lights and going upward before disappearing.

Adult white male, age 65, taking night sky pictures from his front porch. Facing east / northeast. Turquoise / greenish orb seen in the north east, moving up and closer into the east. Successive picture captures the change in altitude and appears moving closer. Path seems to be consistent, not erratic. Within a few minutes orb is gone.
