Looking out the window, I noticed a very bright flashing light in the sky, about a mile maybe a mile awa,y with a dimmer light about twice that distance and to the left of the brighter light. Both seemed stationary and there was no engine sound, but it was a good distance off. After a minute or two, both lights came closer and a third light appeared as the first to came closer. Over the next several minutes all three had passed my field of vision. The lights were in the south western sky from Hiawasee Road, about a quarter mile north of Conroy-Windermeir.

I was driving back home, until i saw a strange light. it was strange because of the fact that it flickered like a fire. i was driving north west towards the light until i came into a red light and decided to park my car by some apartments. the fire descended very slowly it would move vertical and horizontal and i got a good clear view on it. It had a nucleus that was somewhat dark bright it was orange and around it, it appeared to have flames. I took a picture when it was about 2000 feet. I speculated it for 2 more minutes and it ascended slowly while fading away as if it was ghostly like. (The picture came out like a small curved light) Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I am 51 year old female up having coffee. Went for second cup, looking out the front window overlooking lake and saw this mushroom, or umbrella shaped object over middle of the lake. This was red. I mean RED!! I have never seen anything so red in my life. The top of the mushroom was more intense red than the "Stem" that flowed out the bottom. It was about 300 yards away. I'm guessing the top was about the size of 2 Suv"s. I just stood there for about 10 seconds, stunned. Then I called out to my boyfriend to come look. He was sleeping. It took him about another 10 seconds to get up to look. By the time he got there, it had gone. It never "hovered" or moved around. It just disappeared. This was NOT a reflection. I immediately drew a picture on a napkin with a red pen. I will never forget the intense color of red!

Sunrise, FL
I was driving west on 595 at 8:20 pm and noticed a large round glowing object in the distance to the west. The object was round and glowing at first and then appeared to change shape and break into several other pieces. I took pictures of the largest one and did not realize there were many until I enlarged the pictures. I actually called 911 and reported it because it reminded me of what the space shuttle looked like when it came apart a over Texas. My wife also witnessed this with me and I have 10 pictures of the objects, so I know I did not hallucinate this.

I stepped outside and was looking up at the stars. I noticed one appeared to be moving. At first I thought it was a plane but it was moving way too fast. Then it occurred to me that it was the space station. After it went out of sight I checked the location of the ISS and it was no where near by.

I was heading South on Federal Highway, US1 at the junction of Bayview Drive and I spotted a silver object in the sky ahead of me. I watched it and "followed" it for approx. 30 seconds. It was travelling quickly but was not "really" high in the sky. All of a sudden it just vanished. It all happened very quickly and I was in my car at the time. Traffic was somewhat heavy but moving, others must have seen it. I am a married businessman in my mid forties, quite sane & not a "tin foil hat" wearer, but I know what I saw. I wish I could have taken a photo.

Husband and I saw first 3 what looked like red fire balls move from west to east. 2 were together then the 3rd one came up real quick as to catch us with the other 2. Then shortly after those 3 another one, then 2 more. No noise, but they looked like actual fire balls moving across the sky.

Was getting ready to view the International space station @ 9:02 pm. Took out my phone to use compass app. To get bearings of which ISS is going to fly overhead. My friend was outside getting ready to see if we could see anything, cause it was a bit cloudy. I went outside to backyard to point out direction the station should fly by. Looking at a SSW direction, we saw this light fly diagonally 8 o'clock to 1o'clock stopped as if it was detected then flew the same way downward. That was the end of sighting!

Delray Beach, FL
Western sky approx 280 degrees,at 50 degrees from horizon. Two stationary circular bright lights approx 5-7degrees apart. Slowly moved north over a 40 min period to approximate 310 degrees but lights never increased or decreased their separation distance. Upper level and ground winds were from the exact opposite direction of movement and lights did not appear to be a drift. Lights finally became obscured by high ceiling wispy clouds and gone when clear view available

Daytona Beach, FL
At 9:38 P.M. me and a friend stepped outside to leave my house. I live right off A1A, 200 yards from the ocean in Daytona Beach Shores. In a direction of SSE, we saw what I thought to be a rocket. Not to miss the night launch, I called into my wife in the house to come out and see. Most rockets disappear quickly here in the general direction they are launched, but even with taking her time of half a minute to come out it was still visible. Only at this point instead of moving up in altitude, becoming more and more dim, it was moving across the horizon about 45 degrees high over the ocean until it disappeared at ENE. It was an orange ball of flame like seen in launches. I would estimate it traveled from Cape Canerval to Jacksonville (160 miles) slightly off the coast in about 90-120 seconds. I couldn't find and information of a launch at 9:38 on 5/30 and would like to note heard no noise at all like when a military jet flies over the ocean. I'm convinced it was a rocket flying over the coast but can't find any record of a launch so I'm reporting it as a UFO.

I had my friend come out to see and, as the first it slowly disappeared. We went back inside and I looked out the window and noticed 2 more going in the same direction, so we watched them slowly disappear. after going back inside again, peeked out and seen 1 more all going the same direction and fading away as if they went out to space..

I was driving in my neighborhood when I noticed a strange light up in sky. I quickly pulled over and pulled out camera phone. The light looked like a flame kind of. It looked fire like, I guess a fireball type. At first I thought it wasn't moving, but when I stopped I noticed it was moving slowly across the sky. I thought maybe I would hear a noise, maybe it was a hot air ballon, I thought, but it was completely silent. Then I thought, no air ballon, what is this. I tried playing with zoom on my camera then lost it in the camera but I kept my eye on the flame, fiery, fireball like object as it slowly flew across sky. Then, it all of sudden went from a very slow rate of speed, to the speed of light, at an angle into space. Only a short line or trail of light was seen angled in to space. If I blinked I would have missed it. It was gone!

I was leaving my friends house and saw these orange lights in the sky, so I pulled over and video taped them, I thought it to be just a meteor shower but people are telling me that that is not what a shower looks like. I have seen a ufo before up close and it was amazing, but this time there were so many of them, I hope they weren't just meteorites, id feel bad for wasting your time, but I just feel the need to be vigilant... I seemed to me they would fade out once they noticed i was looking at them... Again just freaked out, if there is a reasonable explanation id love to hear it...

At approximately 11-11:30 pm, I was out checking a radiator leak on my vehicle. After taking it for a ride I parked in my driveway and was sitting in my car thinking that I’d have to replace the radiator. I noticed 4 people walking in front of my car on their way home. I heard the neighbors across the street and I guess they were having a little get-together. After they walked down the street about 75 yards I was sitting in my car with the door open when suddenly I saw a very low flying craft just above the tree line descending into the adjacent neighborhood. I thought that was odd because there is no airport or landing strip there. The object did not look like a typical airplane or helicopter, and made no noise at all. It had two bright red lights in the front and one white light at the back. The red lights were alternately pulsating or blinking. It was sort of a triangle shape although I couldn’t see any definite form to it, but that was the impression I had, some sort of triangle although I can’t be certain of that. I heard a story from the guy that replaced our garage door opener that an older couple he did some work for said they saw a UFO come out of the retention pond in back of their house and silently fly over the trees and disappear. The retention pond is about 1-2 miles from my house.

Red fireball, bright. I thought it was a meteor because there was a meteor shower tonight. It was very close and did not burn out. So I look a video. It was traveling slowly across the sky going south towards the skyway bridge. I kept watching it for around 60 seconds as it travels across the sky. It was very bright and changed shapes like a flame does on a candle stick. It made no sound. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Went outside to take Dog out,was a clear night. Seen a bright light with colors like a prism. There was a trail of light attached. It moved slow not like a shooting star. It was approx 200 ft above ground it was unlike anything I had ever seen until I seen a picture posted about bright lights in Hawaii on the same night. The one picture looked simular to what I had seen last night. The light went down a couple blocks away but no noise and abruptly disappeared did not hit ground.

Tampa Vay viewing from west, FL
I was walking towards my home east direction and talking on the phone when a bright green orb appeared out of nowhere. It was moving straight down but due to line of site may have been moving down and directly away from me. It appeared in size aboiut I/3 size of a full moon. It had no trail it left no debris and made no sound. It did not vary in brightness. it could not have been space debris or shooting star as no trail no dbris as stated.. I am not into this at all but after what I just saw I firmly believe this thing was not a natural object. that's it anyone else see this?

Orange Park, FL
In short, I was driving home from school at night (no drugs or anything of that sort, nor was I extremely tired), and as I was approaching the intersection of Kingsley Ave and 17 (Orange Park, FL), at about 10:00 P.M.. I saw what looked like a green orb running parallel to my car (I think I was going about 35-40 MPH), maybe at about 60 degrees to my left, on the opposite (East) side of the road (I was traveling South). I think, even though it would move in a straight line, it would appear in front of certain objects, and behind other objects. This went on for maybe a few seconds a most, and then it suddenly flew off really fast, and I think it left a very soft, green, light trail behind it, which faded away quickly. That is the last detail I recall. I am 22 years old at the time of this report; not on any medications besides allergy relief.

Tampa, FL
on the smoking deck, airside E tampa airport, several of us saw a silver kids like helium ballon drift across the sky. As we were looking up, two green glowing boomerang shaped objects in line about 1000 yards apart shot across our field of view, directly over the airport tower at what we estimated to be around 5000 feet, NE to SW, headed directly toward macdill airforce base. we estimated the speed at 5 or 6000 MPH.

Altamonte Springs, FL
A friend and I were sitting at the cranes roost, In Altamonte Springs. We were just sitting there after having gone for a brisk walk and I noticed something coming out of the sky from the East. There were three red lights moving in a westerly direction. It appeared they were in a formation. Behind them was another three, and then another three. At first it appeared that there was a total of 12. The first 12 one by one disappeared into the night sky. Then there appeared another set of 12 coming in formations of three. Those 12 disappeared into the sky too. There was no sound, no motion, no flickering of light. There was just 24 solid red lights that vanished into the sky.
