It was beautiful clear night not a cloud in sight, I just got home from driving 15 mins from work and wanted to chill out before going inside. I decided to stargaze just for a few, while I was staring up at the stars through my sun roof the stars went black and I couldn’t see them, a few seconds go by and an orange orb appears and there’s 6 of them in a row and 3 in a column. I was astonished at what I was seeing, there was no noise no wind nothing and as soon as it leaves the sight of the sun roof it disappeared.

Glide, OR
Unstable light. Moved slowly higher over the course of the hour. Flashed slowly over the first ten or so minutes. Then was solid light after that. Over the ridge Deep in BLM land. Zoomed in on camera and recorded the flashing for almost six minutes. Looks as if plasma in video spinning. When the light flashed out and it went completely back we all saw a black hole behind where the light had been. After we saw the thing the moon changed as well. I saw two red crescent moons connected yet warped out of the moon. The two others with me saw almost the same but not red.

At 4:39 am, I was walking around the paved trail in Riverfront Park on 23rd St in Hermiston, Oregon. It was still mostly dark but dawn was coloring the eastern horizon. I was rounding the extreme north side of the park trail, and happened to look up between the trees which framed the sky. My view into the sky at this point is facing west, northwest. The weather was clear, mid fifties and almost still wind. I saw a long lighted cigar shape floating silently from the west moving toward the east, northeast. It was completely silent. I could hear traffic from the freeways that the craft would have passed directly over. The long side of the cigar shape had lights running the length. These appeared to be square shaped, and for a moment I thought they may be windows. As it passed by, I noted that the lights changed, some brightness running up or down the length. I could not see any fixed interval. The lights were all white. I saw no bulges or projections either top or bottom of the lights. There was a darkish metal greyish silver cast to the edges of the cigar. I was hoping that as it passed by toward the increasing brightness of the dawn, that jt would silouette the shape. But as it passed toward the east, the leading end of the cigar angled away from me and the lights were no longer visible. The end view as it floated away was of something greyish matte metal color about the size of the end of a round broom handle. The object appeared to be floating. The object had no visible means of propulsion. The object left no trail and there was no distortion visible around it. No effects were visible below on the ground it passed over.

In the early morning hours on Friday, August 7th of 2020, I witnessed something truly amazing. Approximately 4:30am, I awoke from falling asleep on the couch as I often do from working late hours. I got up and went over to the dining room window to close it when I looked up and noticed a bright light in the sky. I thought to myself, is that the comet? But I quickly realized it was an aircraft as I noticed it’s lights flashing and I could hear it’s familiar sound. As the plane flew over and disappeared, I looked up to the left and to my utter amazement and surprise, I saw a huge object appear. The sky was still dark but was starting to get that early morning glow just before the sun starts to rise. I said to myself, what the hell is that? With my cell phone in hand I quickly went out to the balcony and tried to take a video of the slowly moving object, but in my haste of trying to blow up the craft’s image, I very regrettably kept losing it in my camera view. I went back inside to the dining room window and tried to capture it there but it went behind a huge tree. It was then that I noticed my boyfriend, standing behind me and he stated, “Honey, what are you doing?” “I’m looking at this thing in the sky,” I replied. This large craft finally made its way out from behind the tree, and we were able to witness what I was seeing. I just stared at it in utter amazement, wondering what in the world it could be. It was gigantic, long and cigar shaped. This craft had a silver like appearance. There were no lights. It made no sound, whatsoever. We just stood there in silence as this incredible thing glided across the sky for about 2-3 minutes, until it went behind a large hazy cloud. We both turned to each other and exclaimed, “I think we just saw a UFO!” I have always been very interested in the paranormal, UFO’s, the unexplained phenomena that lingers all around us since a very young age after having several experiences myself that continue to happen to this day. My boyfriend enthusiastically shares my interest and we watch countless programs on these subjects. But I never had a UFO encounter before and I often wondered what it would be like and how I would feel at that moment, always believing that I would be shaking with terror. Well, I finally got my moment and I can honestly say that I was not scared in the least. I was extremely calm and awestruck, and I had a big smile on my face knowing deep in my soul that what we just witnessed was true and very real. We saw a UFO.

Klamath Falls, OR
ufo sighting in Klamath falls Oregon about 3 am August 7th 2020. Seemingly egg shaped, lights on the ufo looked like a strip of LED lights at a 45% angle surrounding the flying craft. From my perspective it was just visible above the trees. It appeared to be using a cloaking technology; it was visible like a shadow. The ufo was silent and moving slow. The lights looked like it was powering the ufo; the illumination looked like it was moving in a circular motion around the craft.

Woodburn, OR
August 3 2020. This all happened during a power outage that affected 112 customers which began at 7:30pm and lasted until sometime after 2:00am. Around 11:30pm I first noticed a cluster of approx 15 small red lights rather high in the sky. Hard to judge altitude and distance at night. From my viewing point they (or it) were about 10 o'clock high. Some brighter than others. No discernible pattern or shape. They maintained their positions and simultaneously flashed on and off at a rate of about once per second. This lasted for only a few seconds then went completely dark. I heard no sound. 30 seconds or so after this sighting, I saw a bright white spherical object moving erratically straight up and down not to far above the nearest treeline about 3/4 miles distant . The object looked to be between 2-5 miles away. At that distance it would measure at least 20 ft wide. It would shoot up above the nearest treeline and then shoot back down, sometimes higher or lower, but never so far down that I couldn't see it through the trees. Nothing that I know of could possibly go as fast as this thing was going. I never really saw it moving. It would be up in one instant and down in the next. This lasted for about 6 or 7 seconds then went dark. Maybe 30 seconds later I saw the same object at about the same distance but much farther to my right. Its behavior and duration was as I described for the first sighting. I heard no sound at all. I can't explain what is was, but it was NOT a helicopter, hot air balloon, fireworks, lightning, a reflection, meteor, comet, temperature inversion, or swamp gas. The sky was cloud free and crystal clear.

Redmond, OR
Husband and I were working on front of home when I noticed fabulous looking linear clouds to west so I took a bunch of pictures. We live on top of Forked Horn Butte and clouds or vapor trails were directly west of Butte. I got some great pictures and two of the pictures you can clearly see a round, metallic looking craft with dark underside. They are pictures so I didn’t observe craft moving. My main interest was the clouds and I got lucky and photographed what appears to be a ufo.

Driving home, my daughter and I witness a very strange form trying to replicate a cloud in an almost triangular shape but with a tail pointing down to earth. The shape changed color for a florescent yellowish green to fluorescent red, then back to yellow. It was stationary and looked like it even had the clouds stopped from moving. the tail grew, and as we reached our destination we got out of the car and watched it change to almost camouflage it's color to look like a cloud only a little darker. the tail began to retract, the form slowly began to dissipate but not like the clouds. the wisps were nothing like the clouds around it. I have video footage of it as it was like nothing I have ever seen before. I did in 2000 ish see another sighting but NOTHING like this.. The colors of what it was stood out like a storm in a clear sky with a few cirrus clouds.

My wife and I were looking up at the night sky towards the West when she spotted object flying fast not in straight line move towards the North and disappear. Then all of a sudden in the West was a round Bright light that was on Hoover’s to the North and then blacked out and was gone. We waited little bit longer. And what seemed to be a shooting star with a tail went fast down from north to south west from us but it seemed so close and just disappeared. I hope someone else saw these?

Redmond, OR
My husband and I were traveling from Sisters to Redmond on Mckenzie HWY / HWY 126. My husband caught the UFO on video at 8:46 PM. It was dusk and there were no stars visible, yet. We noticed a bright white glowing light over the hill ahead of us . It began to fluctuate, yet appearing stationary. It then dropped in altitude horizontally behind a huge hill. We lost sight of it for a few minutes while going around trees and buildings. As we entered town it was much lower in the sky, not far over the buildings . It seemingly sat at a steady altitude moving slightly from side to side. We lost sight again, heading through town. We looked all over for it and after we got to the East side of Redmond where we would surely be able to see, there was nothing. After reviewing the videos my husband took it appears to be an oval shape emitting light.

i was walking my dog. Its a bright night, huge yellow moon in the sky, when i saw this thing hovering very smoothly overhead. I looked closer thinking its just a plane as i see 3 lights in a triangle shape. Thats when i notice the shadow of a triangle. Wings were too thick to be a plane and not very long and what seems to be the front, looked round just like the front of a Nasa spaceship. Body of this thing looke just like a blacked out triangle or like a shadow. A s it flew over, i heard a weird noise kinda like hummin sound but like a buzz (zzzee) like a transformer and then i started hearing a whistle like the air was rushing but no winds at all around me, air just kept whistling overhears after it passed. Very weird!

I was driving west on N Lombard and saw a large square object traveling in the air from north to south along Vancouver Avenue. It hovered over the residential area near Peninsula Park and then proceeded south until out of view.

I video taped these lights, three of them, in different parts of the sky above my house in S.E. Portland,then I zoomed in to clearly see what they were. They seem to be in a spinning movement,moving different direction in quick spurts, yet staying in the area for long periods before disappearing. They change theyr shapes,sorta like they were pulsating open and closed. When open you could see they were somewhat spiral in shape,yet I cought one on video from the side, and from that angle looked more like a curved dome forming out with each pulse. No sound at all. I have video of all three. They are up there nearly every night.

On July 26th 2020 about 1:45 am I was standing outside looking up at the stars, something really big and black passed over my head blocking my view of them. It had no lights , no sound. It took about 10 seconds for it to completely pass over me, returning my view of the stars .

I was having a cigarette on my front porch and all of the sudden I saw a very distinct red flowing light from it’s left to right a very bright red color and it looked like multiple solar panels floating in the sky? I continued to observe the area but never heard any sounds or saw anything else just one solid pulse of bright red light and what looked like solar panels??

Beaverton, OR
On July 25th 2020 at 0315 my fiance and I were in Beaverton, OR looking NE into the sky. We witnessed for at least 20 minutes a UFO slightly above the horizon. It would move from left to right and up and down very slowly. Then it would disappear and reappear. It disappeared about 3 times just to reappear again in a different spot above the horizon. We also witnessed very fast streaks of light moving side to side near the UFO. I am 100% positive that it was NOT an airplane. Airplanes can't move in the manner that this craft was moving. It just looked like a star... A star that moved in weird directions, disappeared and reappeared several times. It was still there when we went inside. My fiance was cold so we went indoors. I saw my roommate a few minutes after being inside, I then told him about what we had seen. My roommate and I then went outside to see it. As soon as we stepped outside, I pointed it out to him and it just looked like a star. Ho! wever, it started to move to the right and then disappeared again. I'm not sure if it came back or not, we both went inside after seeing it.

North Powder, OR
This is really odd hearing you on Coast to Coast replay today (July 24, 2020) and then we saw an orb in the sky and video recorded it outside Baker City, Oregon, near North Powder, Oregon. We reside in Cove, Oregon, and had traveled to Boise, Idaho, to visit our nearest Costco. We drove our motor home which travels a bit slower than our other vehicles and came back around 7:30 p.m. At about 8:45 p.m., we were traveling westbound on Interstate 84 at milepost 278, we observed an orange translucent orb stationary above the The Blue Mountains which was southwest from the Interstate and is just south of Ladd Canyon. Our windshield was pretty buggy but you can still see it right above the mountain until it dropped below to the other side and was out of visual range. It had a orange look to it but partially translucent. The moon was much higher in the sky and the sun had already dropped below the mountain ridge. We are self employed and I recently retired as a Sergeant with the Oregon State Police. My wife and I are both prior military. Never have we seen anything like this and had to share with you. I've never ever reported anything like this either. We emailed a link of the video to the director email. Please let me know if you are unable to view it... Thank you!

Government Camp, OR
3 large pulsating lights on side of cliff/mountain, which began spreading out and growing brighter. Lights were very unusual and I’ve never seen anything like this in that specific spot. Seemed to be emitting light from the bottom of something as the lights were not facing forward, but down beneath the objects. Too far away to see shapes of objects. Could not stay and observe because a truck driving 85mph or so barreled towards us and forced us to drive away
