A line of straight lights facing one direction. First sitting still. Then shortly after started to film. The craft changed direction and began to move foward. Picking up speed it slowly vanished into thin air when the unidentified object started to come close to an air plane as they were both heading tword each other Starlink Satellites

Between Goldfield and Tonopah, NV
At around 7:45 pm on 2/3/23, east of the US 95 N going towards Tonopah through Nevada, my mother and I witnessed an unexplainable atmospheric anomaly. The event could be described as a two conscecutive flashes of holographic or iridescent light, similar to the rainbow sheen on a compact disk, but translucent, luminescent, and large enough to obscure a decent portion of the landscape. The flashes occured less than 2 seconds apart, and lasted no more than a second each, longer than a flash of lightning. The light could be seen in the middle of the sky, like how a rainbow would cross from the upper atmosphere to the ground. Each flash was almost vertical, with a slight diagonal tilt, but largely irregular. Please refer to the illustration to get a better idea. The weather last night was clear, 45 degrees, no clouds or rain. Winds were about 15 MPH, the moon was almost full. The exact location was hard to pinpoint, but based on google maps I can give the estimated coordinates. 37°47'13.7"N 117°13'15.2"W . The sign for Silver Peak was to the left, and about 4 miles past the sign is where we saw the light flashes. According to maps, the area we saw this in is in front of Hasbrouck Peak. The flashes of light were localized to one area, only to the east and in front of the mountain, appearing to obscure the base of the mountain from your view. There was nothing that appeared to be the origin of the lights, it seemed as if the sky was “bent” in the area that the flashes occured. There were no earthquakes, no abnormal weather that could account for atmospheric disturbance. conversation I had about the experience as it was fresh in my mind: she said that it looks like a hologram You sent like they set up a blanket of fake sky You sent cause it was around the bend where we saw it You sent right as youre going past goldfield You sent it seemed like the light of the moon refracted in a really fucked prismatic way You sent like a bent DVD or a broken LCD screen You sent really bright was not a traditional prismatic rainbow (not roygbiv)

Shenandoah, IA
The usual objects that have been seen by myself, my wife and several others are in numbers of at least 7 or more at typical count on a typical night. They aren't visible in daytime. There are two that are most visible at dusk every night and are lower than the rest. They seem unaffected by wind or weather conditions. There are one bright white light with white lights in the same plane on either side and a red light beneath those. The other anomaly I witnessed that was different than these every night ones was about three weeks ago. It traveled from east northeast to the west southwest. It was a cluster of white lights looking to be about twenty or so that were constantly changing patterns, but always in close proximity to each other. When I tried to get a closer look by driving toward them they were gone in the distance at a rate of speed I can't explain.

A bright light was observed for a second and go directly up into a cloud. There was no noise or lights. Hard to discern the shape since it was a light going upward.

Yesterday about 5pm black object, not a circle. It was one and was hovering on the clear blue sky for at least 10 minutes, moving very very slowly to their right. Then a helicopter appeared just below the object looks like it was going in the direction of the object. One of the witnesses took a video i am waiting to receive it.

San Jose, CA
My husband spotted a very large circular object in the sky around 5:15 pm on Feb 3rd in South San Jose, CA while he was driving. He snapped a picture, but the photo is very grainy because the object was very high up in the sky. When he got home told me about it and we both went out in the backyard to watch it. We both watched it until it finally disappeared becuase it had traveled too far away and too high up for us to see it anylonger. It was traveling North to South from where we were standing in our backyard.

I happened to notice movement out of the corner of my eye. When I looked up, there was this rod shaped craft moving at a pretty high rate of speed. The object was moving south west. My friend, also looked up and saw the same thing I did. The object appeared to have no noticeable lights or sound. This sighting was around 2 pm. Sunny day. Whatever this craft was. It made no sound and it vanished just as soon as it appeared. About I say it was 5 seconds. But it was more like 3. It wasn't for very long.

Looking out a window a trees blowing during a windy day suddenly saw a large triangle shaped object just in the distance. It was descending straight down in the sky and I could see an odd metallic gray to it. It continued to descend straight down and suddenly whisked away and disappeared.

What is it?? Pics taken at 9:34am on 2/3/23, but didn't notice it at time photo taken - but clearly seen when reviewing pics last night - & see at least 12+ when zooming in on the pic with the 'shed' in photo. I took pics before & after this time & unseen in other pics.

Horizon City, TX
This report is on behalf of my elderly mother who lives in Horizon, Texas in El Paso County. After seeing the news yesterday about the spy balloon, she stated she had just seen a similar balloon on about Friday around 2 am, through her bedroom window. It was a circular white object right below the moon a little smaller than the moon. It did not appear to move or flash any light. Eventually she went back to bed and it was still there while she was awake. Reason for this report is concern over possible second spy balloon and nearby Ft. Bliss Military Base.

Vero Beach, FL
I was driving on Rd 60 from Vero Beach to Central Florida when at approximately between 9:55-10:07 pm, I got a glimpse of what appeared as a bright light that pulsated from the center to its edges in what I could perceive on a lateral axis. The light was very bright and it lasted a few seconds. This occurred in the middle of a dark and empty field (near/a few miles) before reaching the FPL Fort Drum Solar Energy Center. I felt confused as I tried to understand what I was looking at. At first, I thought the event was probably a general-aviation aircraft turning its landing lights on. I was mesmerized and proceeded to lower the volume of the audiobook I was listening to identify any possible sounds, lights, or clues to give meaning to what I had witnessed. My mind raced and quickly believed it was probably a flare or a glare, but at that instant, it pulsated again. The second sight can be described as a strong and bright flare that pulsated from the middle towards the outside while making an angled upward motion; I could see it to my left, the same as the first sight. It also appears to be pulsating on its axis. I reduced my car’s speed and tried to grab my phone to record a video. Unsuccessfully to identify another sight of the “light,” a few minutes after the fact, I decided to proceeded to take a screen capture of my GPS screen in order to identify the area of the sighting. I’m not sure if this is an important contribution. I’ve looked up how to report my experience and came across the FAA page providing information which directed me to this site.

We were outside stargazing around 9pm and noticed 4 lights in a set of 2 moving together across the sky. They followed each others path and disappeared. Dogs were barking loudly in the background near the area.

Bremen, OH
So I let the dog out for a RR break. As I always do, I was looking into the sky just for something to do. As I was looking over top my house, I noticed something that looked like a big bird, chevron, boomerang or something moving what appeared to be really slow. It made no noise, and appeared to be the size of a small plane flying low over house, but hard to tell. The conditions that night were silent, and a pretty clear night with some clouds. This object appeared to be translucent as it went over top of the house I could see the stars looking odd as it went along. It reminded me of a cloaking device from Star Trek. This object was so faint that if I hadn't been looking at that exact spot, at that exact time, I would have not seen it. Initially, I thought it was something in my eye, so I moved my eye around, and the object did not follow, and I looked back at the object just long enough to see it fade into the horizon. I am a sane, employed kinda educated 45 year old male with common sense. Other info: My wife and I just had a barn burner of an argument right before the sighting. Later on, I was wondering why the object flew over MY house. I have another question, but can't put down in this forum.

Artesia, NM
Driving southbound on 285 from Roswell to Artesia, me, my wife and two adult age sons observed a total of six lights In Formation. My wife had asked what the bright celestial body was to our west, low on the horizon. As I looked west and said Jupiter, we both saw a dull orange light appear in the southwest sky, not low in the sky near lights or towers, but high in the southwest sky. Within seconds a send and third light appeared in a straight line. The lights each went out in sequence as three more lights appeared a short distance south of the first three. The new three appeared in similar sequence and in a formation like an echelon. At this moment the first three reappeared in sequence and the same echelon formation. The six moved laterally a short distance. As I realized that these were likely not flares, because they turned on and off, as they appeared and disappeared and moved laterally I called to my boys in the back seat, who saw the formation starting from the second group. I also asked my wife to film it with her phone. As she was digging in her purse to find her phone, the lights went out for the last time. The entire thing lasted around 30 seconds. As we continued to scan the sky, approximately 5 minutes later we could see what appeared to be condensation trail in the sky in that same area as lights. I describe it as a con trail although it was too dark to have actually been a con trail, but that’s what it looked like. This trail was visible for another two minutes. I’m not sure these two events are connected but I’ve never seen anything like either and the proximity would suggest they were related.

Garfield, NJ
Was waking my dog, on the phone with my mother and as I look up to admire the sky I see a hyper white disk go into warp speed so fast it left a light trail from dipping down some and launching upwards. (No sound) I’ve seen meteorites and shooting stars before at high altitudes, they almost stain the sky at that distance. This object was about 6 stories high over the neighborhood and vanished in about 5 seconds as it left a trail the soon vanished after it. No smoke of exhaust, and I could count over 10 planes in the sky leaving and landing from LGA & Teterboro Airport slow as snails.

Dane, WI
On Thursday 2/2/2023, I was driving west on County Hwy V in town of Vienna, WI. The sky was clear, I could see stars, other aircraft in the distance and radio tower lights in the distance. At approximately 18:25 hrs I saw a white oval shaped object that seemed to be glowing or had an almost fog appearance in the sky. The object was being followed by an aircraft that had red flashing lights on it. These aircraft/objects were just south of Dane WI headed in a northbound direction. I would estimate the size of the object was perhaps half of the size of the aircraft that was following. I was able to observe them until I lost sight of them. I was unable to follow them, as I was on the way to work. I believe they were no more than 500-100 yards apart. The two were approximate the height of normal aircraft, yet were travelling rather quickly. The sighting was only about 25-30 seconds to travel a rather large distance.

North Bend, OR
I observed the discoid craft that was hovering for about 20 minutes from my backyard and from a nearby shopping mall in North Bend Oregon. Its orientation was as if you saw a saucer edgewise, but it hovered straight up and down perpendicular to the earth's surface. More than likely off the Oregon coast over the Pacific Ocean Both sightings were at about 3 to 4 o'clock in the sky. This time I did not see evidence of cloaking capabilities, though eventually it was no longer visible after 20 minutes. With the recent news of a Chinese Spy Balloon hovering over sensitive military sites, I feel it is incumbent to notify the authorities because of its aerial capabilities and the unbelievable ability to cloak or partially cloak. That means this craft is far superior to known or unclassified US military aircraft. I would describe the situation as being ominous if this craft is one over our military enemies: Russian, Chinese or Iranians. If it classified US military craft then I feel we are in good hands. Otherwise, it is extraterrestrial or more than likely interdimensional Foo Fighters.

I was walking my dog and it was at dusk just before last light of day...I couldn't help but notice a rather large object the size of a streetlamp bulb and the same color as the moon tonight ...no sound, no lights on it, moving quicker than an airplane and travelling in an arc curvature...I heard myself say "what was THAT?" in astonishment and strained to see if I could still see it, but it was gone... I figured it was a meteor or space debris of some sort but it moved more like an aircraft would, in my opinion, because of the arc it made. I had no time to take a photo or video.

Object in sky was white round like with black markings that resembled blocks or ladder looking close to the shape of an air balloon looking at it I first thought a balloon with streamers but after I pulled off road for better look I thought if it were a balloon and streamers it wouldn’t look this big ‘ it was big that’s when I noticed the black markings more prominent it seemed to be stationary or slightly floating I tried two different numbers to report this they told me to use this form

I was driving by myself and the sky was clear blue with no clouds. A bright silver narrow cone-shaped craft high up in the sky to the East of the sun caught my attention. It was hovering, not moving. Then it disappeared from the sky without a trace— no jet stream, smoke, trail or lights.

Witnessed an orange orb move quickly across the sky traveling northeast. Only one orb witnessed before it disappeared. Sighting lasted only about 5 seconds.
