Miami, FL
Huge about 10 maybe 15 X 15 feet Spherical/Cone shape BRIGHT! Bluish, white. This morning 2/2/23 at 4:48 Am right above I95 flew in a piloted zig zag motion, then went vertical. Came to a complete stop. Before zipping by horizontally heading east and completely vanished. Almost like it teleported! All within 100 yards of my vehicle. Massive in size. Incredibly fast and no smoke, engine, tail or sound! Someone had to have seen/ captured video or something of this thing!

Middleboro, MA
As I was driving home from my father's house in Plymouth, MA, I was traveling west on route 44 at approximately 10:33pm EST, when I saw 3 bright lights in the sky in a line formation. At first they looked like planets or stars lining up from a distance. As I kept traveling, I noticed them appearing closer and larger. The bright white light now was pulsating/slowly flickering. As I drive off the exit, I notice that they are hovering over certain locations I'm the town. As I drove away further from the highway and into a heavily wooded area I lost sight. I continued back on the high on route 44 west after stopping to get gas. While coming up on the exit in Taunton, MA for route 24 south heading towards Fall River, I saw in the sky 3 more bright hovering objects. This is about 6+ miles away from the original sighting and about 15 minutes after the initial sighting. I got onto route 24 south and several miles later I am passing exit 16 I saw over the tree line through the passenger side window in the sky two more bright hovering objects. As I drive past, I looked out my driver side window and see one hovering almost directly above me. More than several hundred feet up in the air. It was very high up but I believe I saw faint solid red and green lights on the bottom. As I kept driving, right before passing the next exit the next town over I saw 3 more bright hovering objects in the sky. Several miles further up the highway at exit 8 I saw the last sighting before returning home. I saw 4 bright hovering objects in the sky over the Taunton River and the town of Somerset, MA. I kept my eyes on these objects the best I could while getting off the highway and returning home. As soon as I returned home, I headed all the way to my deck on the 4th floor which has a clear 360° view of the sky to attempt to take more pictures, however when I reached the top deck, the objects were gone. Please excuse the music in the attached videos. The map attached is my route back home and the stars on the map are the location I spotted the hovering objects. The first and last sightings were about 27 miles apart from each other over the span of an hour.

I was outside trying to locate and view the green comet, but I couldn't find it. The moon had a beautiful halo, and although I know they aren't super rare, I took 3 pictures with my Samsung galaxy z flip3 (doesn't have a very good camera, but it was cold, so I took 3 photos and went inside.) I took 3 pictures from 2229pm-2230pm and went inside. When I got into bed, I pulled the pictures up and noticed a blue spherical object in all 3 pictures. It is in the lower part of the image below the moon, but traveling west to east. I got dressed and ran back outside with a good camera, (this was probably 5 mins later) but it was nowhere in sight. I thought it was a satellite, however I have asked several friends and people online what they think, and they say that it is too low to be a satellite. Now with the chinese balloon thing, I thought I should share. If you have any thoughts about what it is, please let me know! I would live to know what I caught a photo of! There was no noise, no movement noted by me just with the naked eye, all I saw was what is in the photos. Lens Flare

My son was talking to me when he saw an object in the sky and said “What is that?” I turned to look, and we both picked up our phones and went to the balcony. We both took videos, his phone is better than mine, but we got 2 videos. It was circular and orange/red. It got larger and smaller and the brightness changed. It hung in the air before lowering and disappearing. It shot sideways and back before it disappeared. I didn’t want to put on social media and did not know where to report this. There was also some sort of mechanism on the bottom. It appeared to be very far away.

I was on SEA-Bainbridge ferry 1/2 way across Puget Sound. Looked to my right (south facing) to determine ferry's location en route. I observed 3 lights in night sky, 50 degrees above horizon, southern sky. 3 lights in triangle' formation, stationary; then formation began to rotate, slowly westwardly, with highest position light increasing its position higher into the sky. As object continued to rotate, 2 more immediately adjacent lights appeared, moving with the object. The position/spacing of the 3 lights indicate the object was massive in size. (The lights were too large for the object to be a satellite.)

it was over north Wood Village between airport and walmart, OR
Saw weird light moving and scrambled to grab phone and start filming. It made no sounds. Was scared. Didn't fill out report immediately because of medical issues and don't want to deal with weird stuff while on the mend but this bothers me. This was facing east I think? Around 7:43PM Weds Feb 1st probably about a 45 degree angle up and over one of the wood village industrial buildings, not sure how far away it was. It probably would have been between the Troutdale airport and wood village Walmart. Only lasted maybe 60 seconds total by time I grabbed phone and started filming a 26 second clip. Whatever that big orb was it dipped down a little and then shot up into the sky in less than 4 seconds. Telling myself it's drones. Thought I heard some of the air national guard jets from over by the Portland international airport heading toward it afterward so maybe someone was near airspace they weren't supposed to be near. You might want to contact Air National Guard at the Portland air base to confirm or see if Troutdale or Portland airport got it on radar. I don't want to sign off rights to it to anyone else right now so all I'm giving are screenshots of the video.

While skygazing for the 'green comet' I witnessed two lights, seemingly connected though it was too dark to see if they actually were. There was no noise from the object, the lead light was a very dim white, followed by an extremely bright white light trailing a fair distance behind the lead light. The light approached from the north and slowly curved and turned east, it was moving slowly, almost like a blimp, and seemed to be fairly large if it was a single object. No aircraft were visible on the ADSB Exchange or Flightradar24 at the time, and local traffic control streams from like ATC didn't mention any objects (This object would have been in the controlled airspace for Pittsburgh International.) To determine I wasn't crazy I made two relatives come outside to view the object, they confirmed they could also see it. After about five minutes or so the lead light faded, turning a dim red before vanishing, the trailing light doing the same several seconds after. Neither light was near the horizon or any object that would have obscured them. Planes are normal here (especially large military tankers) but they're always loud, this object was completely silent. I took a photo with my phone but the phone camera is poor quality, but I'll attach it anyway. Depicted is only the rear brighter light, the smaller light isn't visible in the photo.

West Camp, NY
I was driving my daughter around with my roommate so she could take a nap. We saw an unusual object flying nearby that was diamond-shaped. It had two red lights that stayed on and two white lights that were flashing in a sequence uncommon for aircrafts from my experience. My roommate just sat there stunned while I took pictures as I stopped on the railroad tracks.

Marco Island, FL
White oval object observed passing overhead. No sound, trail or lights. Unsure of altitude, did not seem very high (maybe 1000 ft?), but moving very fast from south to north. Day was mostly sunny, the area of the sky object observed against was clear blue. It disappeared towards north horizon before it could be observed with binoculars which were in my backpack or by my husband who was under a beach umbrella next to me at the time.

I was driving south on the road at not a fast speed. A metallic silver sphere that was reflective appeared at about a 75 degree angle and was clear enough to see detail but I could not estimate the distance in the sky though had a clear visibility and could see enough detail to see that only the top half of the sphere was showing, there seemed to be no bottom half but it seemed like the top of something and I could only see the top which seemed like a bubble with possibly a window because the silver metallic material was different that the front what seemed like window. The silver was reflective and it was a completely clear day with very blue sky and no clouds whatsoever. It was visible clearly for about 5 seconds and I continuously was looking at it and without moving it disappeared completely taken over by the blue sky as if it was never there. The object was completely stationary and did not move.

I already described it. One more thing to add. When it sparkles in rapid move, the color is fairly white instead of orange fire.

Sulphur Springs, IN
I was driving home at 7:15 pm after sunset towards Sulphur Springs on 300 north county road (0.5 Miles away from Sulphur Springs) When I noticed a quickly moving orange light to my left. The object was a lighter shade of orange perfect circle the size of a full moon. It moved to fast to be a helicopter or airplane. It moved too the left and down disappearing behind the tree line. There was no visible light from it behind the tree line. It looked like it landed however it might of just gone to far to see. There were no red, white or green lights like those used by aircraft, not a shooting star as it was to slow, big and had no tail. It was also not the ISS. The light did not appear to be attached to anything such as a larger craft. It made no noise.

El Granada, CA
On the evening of Jan 31, 2023, my wife and I went to have dinner at Barbara FishTrap. I took my Nikon D850 camera to take some pictures at the Radar Dome at Pillar Point Harbor, El Granada, near Half Moon Bay, Ca. After finishing eating take out dinner in our SUV, I took some pictures of the Radar Dome at the parking lot. I was surprised to see these objects when I viewed in Photoshop the next day. The image shot in jpg format and the image was not modified. I am not a professional photography; it is only my hobby. [NUFORC annotation: Camera Anomaly - Possible]

I was outside working with about two dozen other folks and looked up to see this object traversing the sky from roughly south to north. Not calling attention to it amd not wanting to look a bit nutty I just silently took a break and watched it for 30-60 seconds (not sure if it was more or less). It went directly over the moon and down towards the mountains before I lost track of it. This was a few days before all the balloon craziness started and I'd briefly wondered if it was related but the track it took was by and large opposite the direction that had gone. I'm really kicking myself now for not saying something to someone or pulling my phone out because it would have definitely helped me validate it in my mind a little better.

On Monday January 30 2023 about 9:15pm I went out to get mail and decided to look up to the sky. It was a bright clear night. The moon was about 3/4 full and was on the western side of sky. There was nothing to see by the naked eye except Orions Belt and what I thought was the Northern Star. The white round object that I thought was the northern star started moving not fast not slow towards me. I froze and watched. Then object stopped when a plane flew by for final approach to land. When the plane was gone, the white object moved back to its original spot and then a red light and blue light appeared on right side of object. Now where there was hardly anything in the sky before there was now 40 or 50 white round objects formed very close to each other and each object had a red light and blue light appear on right side. This cluster of objects were opposite the one white object that had earlier moved across the sky. I could not reason this out in my mind about what I was seeing. So I went inside and didn’t think to tell my husband about it till Tuesday night January 3, 2023. By telling him what I saw, I realized I really did see unusual activity in the sky.

It happened very fast. I saw the object through my window. I live close to the airport but have never seen a plane this close or going on that direction. It was way too big to be a drone. It was very quiet and it happened too fast to take a pic of video. A few minutes after I noticed the fountain in the lake behind my home was off but no idea if there's a connection. I would just like to know how many others saw the same thing.

Driving along River Rd. Passenger in my vehicle pointed out glowing orange object in sky during daytime. Neither of us had seen something like this before. Looked like a bright orange sphere with two tails pointed vertical. It was just hovering in one area. I tried to take a picture but it wouldn’t capture on phone. I drove off so not sure how long it remained. I haven’t seen it since.

The craft was in the northwestern sky above the tree line, as I was heading home from work. It was visible for about half a minute, and looked as if it was stationary, or moving very slowly. The shape of the object looked like a triangle, with the right side being longer in length than the left. The craft was moving slowly, and I lost sight of it as soon as I cleared the trees onto Snelling Avenue. I would put it at between 10-20,000 feet in the air, and it was brightly shining against the sun. The craft was not visible once I broke the trees. I was trying to film it with my phone camera but could not keep the camera steady as I was driving northbound. I later reviewed the footage and did not see the UFO on the camera. It may have disappeared by the time I started filming. The color of the craft matched the sun flare off of it, however the shape of the craft told me something was different. A few minutes prior to this, I heard what sounded like a jet liner going west to east, probably landing at Minneapolis/St. Paul International. The sound of the jet passing over was too low to be this object.

Pulling into work, I seen distortion above the laundromat. There were clouds in the sky that made it possible to see there was something there. It was big and slow moving and pretty close to the ground, but still above businesses. I was running late so I didn’t have much time to observe. I just know something weird was there.

Woke up to see a yellow-orange orb through the trees of my backyard. Direction was due west. Object was about 3 times as bright and 4-5 times as large as Venus. Initially, saw a bright orb and observed it for several minutes. The single source changed color to a more white, then broke into 4 distinct irregular shapes (elongated) of blue-white light. This lasted only for a minute or two. The elongated shapes disappeared, and the central object then reappeared, but was not nearly as bright. Observed it for another few minutes, but then the object dimmed out and disappeared.
