On the evening of the 18th of January, 2022, I went out back to see the skies, as is a habit every evening & dawn. I noticed the perfect orange orb over the moon & began by taking 2 photos. Then, after identifying Betelgeuse, Capella & others, I could not find my orange object in the star charts. I normally can only see planets, etc(big things)in the city. So 10 minutes later, Betelgeuse moved south but my object was still "above" the moon...it was now green & seemed closer. Not sure if it was the fact that it wasn't on a star or satellite chart or experience itself but felt very discombobulated. It remained that way until a large dark cloud covered it all. I was freezing cold, so after 25 minutes, I had to go inside. Next time out, it was not there anymore.

I was in my car on hopewell road stopped at the light. I saw the bright object and thought it might be the meteor. It wasnt going fast like a shooting star so I just stayed at it, took a few photos and one short video. I had to drive on so I pulled into the Sunoco gas station but when I looked I couldn’t see the object. The object looked like a giant v shape, but the pictures show otherwise. My eyes are terrible so perhaps I was seeing it incorrectly. It was extremely bright, just the object and seemed to move very slowly. The color was yellow like a bright light.

A series of red dots (estimated 20-30) were seen by myself and three family members flying through the sky. They were circular and extremely bright. They were red/orange and came directly from the north. They were seen from my front yard and came in pairs. They flew from the left side of my field of vision to the ride and then vanished one by one as they all came to one point in the sky. They were about as fast as a plane. I managed to record them, but our family was not able to distinguish what the objects were.

Hello, I am filing this report my first report one which I have filed on one other website but they did not return correspondence so I am filing here. I wish to get these off of my chest as it has been troubling me all of my life. On January 15, 2022 as I entered my automobile, I noticed a glowing orb just above powelines. It was white / blueish on color, and it was bright. It pulsated slowly and moved slowly and perfectly as if on straight and set path from North-East to South-west. It did not exhibit unusual maneuvering nor did it have any discernible shape. Shortly after it passed overhead, the sound of Helicopters faded in and followed the orb from it's point of origin North-East. Unfortunately the video is approximately 30 seconds in length and the video quality itself is unremarkable. As it passed over and after 30 seconds I felt a sense of fear and discomfort, so much so I felt compelled to stop recording. This is not the last time I witnessed this type of orb and in fact just 5 days later it made another appearance of which I recorded as well; only that time it was much closer and it grew in size and was even brighter but as I mentioned on the other websites reporting form, I will reserve that higher quality video until I can gauge wether or not this initial report/video will be taken seriously before I decide to follow-up. You may contact me at strmncptz@gmail.com , thank you very much for your time.

I was waiting for a bus and I saw a weird light above downtown and I started recording it. It was still. At least as twice as high as the towers downtown. It was not from a blimp or a drone or anything like that but I don't know what it was. It was massive. There's a plane or helicopter flying under it in the video. I would have kept recording but my bus came and i had to get on it. The lights were going around it it was a massive disk just floating still. I have the video

I was a passenger in a car on my phone and something bright and fast caught my attention. I looked and in the west was a streak of pure white. The head of the object was red with a very pronounced and long white tail, the purest white I've ever seen. As the craft moved, the tail disappeared (with delay). It looked like the craft was moving down from my angle, but based off of the way the tail looked, the craft seemed to actually just be moving away from me.

On the night of December 14th I was walking from my house to my neighbor's house at approximately 6:50 p.m. I noticed a large silverish whites light in the sky that I thought was the moon at first. I remembered the moon not being full at the time and looked up in the sky and saw the moon itself above my head. I went and grab my phone and recorded a minute of it. It remained somewhat stationary and moved back and forth a little bit here and there. It seemed to almost evaporate into the sky.

I was coming home from a day out with my daughter when I noticed three lights in the sky that did not look like an airplane. The object was traveling really fast. When it got right in front of me I realized that although the lights were in a triangular pattern the actual shape of the aircraft was oval. It flew by us in the sky pretty fast and almost seemed to disappear.

sitting on deck taking random pics. not visible to the eye I have also had one disc shape about 60 feet above my head. So close I have seen grooves in the top disk shaped like cartoon waves which would allow it to spin to open making it virtually very smooth on the bottom I have miles of woods behind my home and this is not an isolated event

3 fast traveling fireballs in the night sky. Fireball shaped objects( very bright fire, orange-like color) took off in Towamencin Township and flew Northeast with speed that I could not quite determine, but was not slow, increasing altitude until disappearing. From the visual appearance and the distance, the size of the objects could have been from 3-6 feet in diameter. My neighbor and I both captured video of this event. We were able to observe objects take off and steadily traveling and increasing altitude up to about 100-200 feet over Towamencin Township area, towards the I-476 highway.

Object was stationary, in and out of sight for approx 20 minutes. There was not a cloud in the sky, 3 of us watched this on our way home and took a photo when we got home. The object went from white to silver to invisible -- it was moving west slowly when we got home, left a small trail that disappeared quickly. It was very scary to watch this for so long and not be able to identify it. or, compare it to anything we've ever seen. Hi Peter, we exchanged emails on 12/19. I'm finally reporting this now; very excited about Webb Telescope! Pics are below, hope you're safe from snow and the new site looks great. Dan

5 of us noticed the red orb at the same time. We all agreed it moved too fast for a landing airplane. There were no safety strobes or green and red wing indicators.

They were both stationary one further away then the other, because one appeared larger in size. About after 40 or so minutes of me seeing this they started to split up one going in the opposite direction of thee other. It’s not the first time seeing this its happening steadily for a while now. I want to say its planes but I can’t what I witness every time is not a plane. These things appear to be spinning an are really shiny.

This guy became my nemesis for a few months. The craft is red and tomato shaped, single seater, open cockpit. It has yellow lights emitting from within. A green alien can be seen piloting it as I hide under a tree in my front yard. He has become aggressive, even brushing against the tree limbs trying to get me. As he moves his hands a as the controls, 2 to 4 beeps are emitted before the craft responds to his imputs. I filmed him many times perusing me. He later returned with a larger craft with an overhead wing. After that he returned with other aliens on the outside. Both red and green I have some pretty close up videos of this guy coming after me, looking right at me Site won’t let me upload videos [NUFORC annotation: Hoax - Probable]

While driving on PA route 27 west out of Titusville, PA a long line of lights was sighted on the horizon. I pulled over and took a video. The lights eventually faded. I have never witnessed anything similar to this. This was not a plane, it did not have a similar shape or lights. I would estimate it at hundreds of feet long.

My wife and son called me out side because there was a strange line of moving lights that seemed to be atleast 2 football fields long. They were higher then an airplane and there were around 30 individual objects (lights) traveling at different speeds within the linear formation as some seemed to slow down and speed up to not hit another light . The lights were almost the same color as stars but had a blue tint. They traveled across the sky for atleast a minute while we were calling out across the street to neighbors and another gentleman to verify they too could see it. The lights appeared to be traveling upwards and then almost all at once disappeared. I tried to listen to see if I could hear sounds but I could not. The sky was clear of any clouds my view was not obstructed at any time. I immediately came in to look up where to report it. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

My 3 nephews were outside around 6:30 exploring our backyard, which is a big field. Suddenly 2 of them heard a loud thud, then, lights across the street started turning on and off, and when they looked into the direction of the thud, they saw a line of white lights, equally spaced apart, slowly cruising across the sky, they immediately sent one of them to get me, he was panicked, and told me not to even put on my shoes or coat, and just run outside, I immediately thought somebody was hurt, so panicked, I ran outside, they then pointed me in the direction of the lights, and for about 10 seconds, I saw the formation, I was in utter shock, and thought it was an airplane, but then I took into account the complete silence and how low the lights appeared, and realized that was impossible. I then realized I should be recording, so I pulled out my phone, as soon as I got up my camera, the lights slowly dissolved into the sky, as if it did not want to be seen.

Lords Valley, PA
We were traveling on Hemlock Farms Road in a community called Hemlock Farms in a town called Lords Valley. The road was going South west. To our left side, we saw an object about a dime's length in size out our driver side window going somewhat faster than the car but not exceedingly so. It was fairly big as far as a signature goes. The sighting began at exactly 7:37 PM as we looked at the dashboard clock. We are seasoned observers and do not submit reports nilly-willy. It eventually pulled very far ahead of us in the course of one to two minutes. It was a triangle. It had all yellow lights. The lights were along the front two lengths of the object. About 4 on each side. And there were at least 4 more lights in what would be the body of the craft behind the before mentioned perimeter lights. It was bright! The object was fairly low so that is why we perceived it as a dime sized object which is fairly large as far as sightings go. No FRA green or red lights. All yellow. Total about 10 to 12 yellow lights. The pattern was like a ike a Christmas tree traveling on its side. It had an inordinate amount of lights on it. It was not perceived by anyone in the car as a normal aircraft. Maximum speed probably under 100 mph based on how fast it gradually pulled ahead of us at our speed of 40 mph. We looked it up on Flightradar24.com. We began the search at 7:15 pm. local time (5 hours earlier than UTC time). There were no aircraft over the location 15 minutes before or prior. Thus, this object did not have a transponder. It was high enough above the radar line that it should show up on flightradar24. Based on our position, and the low perceived altitude, we take a ball park guess that the object was larger than a large heli and smaller than a Boeing 737. Windows closed so we heards no engines. My dad is a UFO Investigator with MUFON . He was with me when I saw this. He agreed it was unusual and told me our area is ripe with UFO reports including triangles this year. Apparently there are corresponding MUFON and NUFORC reports of this type of object in our area in the past 12 months. He is always free to contact. No anonymity required. Thank you! Liam!

A neon green "boomerang-type" UFO was sighted by me in the sky twice within ten (10) minutes. It "danced" in the sky and disappeared both times. No aircraft moves in the manner I witnessed, as the movements were very quick and sharp.

New London Township, PA
My wife and I went for a hike in the late afternoon on Thanksgiving Day, 2021. We were driving home, turned a corner, and saw these lights in the sky (see attached photo and videos). Despite what the camera appears to show, these lights were not flashing in any way. The camera also failed to capture the color accurately. They were an orangish color seeming to glow like a candle. These lights silently moved from what appeared to be low altitude in the southwest to higher altitude in the northeast, each one disappearing into a cloud bank. The whole event was over in less than ten minutes. For reference, I'm an senior managing engineer with a software company. My wife is a registered nurse. We are both in our mid fifties.

I am a United States Marine Corps 0311 infantry rifleman veteran. November 24th 2021 The sun was down and the sky was a bright pink/purple at dusk. My girlfriend and I were on our way to her mom's house in Latrobe, PA. She was driving and I was looking ahead when something that first made me think of a torn a dark plastic bag blowing in the wind. This wasn't moving though and I realized the wind wasn't really blowing at the moment anyhow. I'm baffled and am really zoning in trying to figure out what I'm looking at. It was difficult because from this angle all I could see is something thin and dark in a shape that I couldn't relate anything to. We are driving about 35mph and as I got closer I had the thought maybe something is caught on this telephone line or on some fishing line or something. As we got to a more parallel angle to this object I could see it perfectly. It was about 6 feet to the right and a foot higher than the telephone pole. My eyes went from the mysterious black object to what was connected to it at the bottom. It reminded me of a flat steel beam bent in the shape of a C just floating there. Not making a sound and having no other obvious body. On the metal I could see maybe 12 or 15 bright orange circles evenly spaced apart. I couldn't tell if the orange circles were omitting any light or not. It almost looked like the clouds through the center of the C were slightly distorted. Almost how heat waves can distort an image, except these heat waves were locked in place by a separate gravity. I suspect the rest of the craft was cloaked with extreme technology. We drove passed it and I looked forward and thought to myself "I better look back because I'll never see another one again." (That's the moment I first took it in that is a UFO and the months leading up I have had a weird urge or craving to see a UFO) As I look back it is still there and I see it rotate on its axis as if to look at us. It's rotation was effortless and mesmerizing to watch due to its seamless and masterful movement. It looked slightly different in shape, a little fuller but still a C, from that angle and after it turned to watch the car drive down the road. When I 1st saw it I was probably 150 meters away. There is a large empty field to the right and then some trees about 50 meters past where I spotted the UFO. So I could only see it maybe 80 meters after we past it. I didn't say anything to my girlfriend while it was happening simply because I was trying to figure out what it was at first and when I did I was so amazed I just looked at it with my mouth open slightly! I asked if she saw as soon as I couldn't see it anymore but she said she didn't. I will always regret not telling her to stop. I was not afraid at all. I feel like they are open to communicating with me and ever since this sighting I have had over 100 lucid and or vivid dreams about UFOs landing and interacting with me. This C craft I saw is unlike anything I have seen or heard of in regards to a UFO and it looked like it was cutting edge technologically the top. I suspect the black torn plastic looking peice on top had something to do with the acceleration.
