East Los Angeles, CA
The lights were steady but they change color. An airplane passed by and they started moving from side to side. At some point you can also see then turn into several more lights that all spin forming a circle. It was cloudy that day but you could still see them. I have two videos but too large to attach to the form.

Sitting outside thought it was a balloon but it was black grayish also moved very smooth and was going horizontal in my direction before flying into the clouds there was a lie that was so fluid that stream through it almost like a strobe of life from the back of it to the front it almost look as though it was turning in a circle and I thought it was a circle but when I looked closely it was more oval shape. I noticed after flying off into the distance to Cessna Plains went to follow the trail of it I don't know if they were CIA or FBI but the object was definitely not a drone a helicopter airplane or a bird. A day prior I caught video of the clouds in front of my apartment and it looked all those as though a cyclone was in it and then I saw it again yesterday and thought it was very strange that it had similar formation right after I had notice that's when I witness what happened. I tried to take video of this but my phon froze Although I do have photo and video of the cyclone cloud Which is my first video I uploaded here but my second video is from the actual day I seen the cloud formation again and also the day that I've seen the unusual object But my phone froze in the process of the recording the object flying across the sky

Saw an object pulsing while working outside and just started recording. Then about 30-40 minutes later I saw a bunch of object in the sky and caught it all on video. Email me if you want to see the videos. 3 total videos.

Stockton, CA
Perfect line of circular bright blinking lights way off in horizon, maybe 6-8 lights. All blinking in unison (off 99n we were driving, three people in car all saw same thing) then suddenly the lights broke apart and got much closer to the car, on either side of car/highway. Then suddenly all got bright, they lit up the black night so all was bright and visible and then all the lights went dark and disappeared. 8:04 pm. The whole even was maybe 2-4 minutes total

Chico, CA
I observed two different orange balls at low altitude, below 5000 ft with the naked eye and a pair of binoculars at approximately 10:30 p.m. Pacific time December 24th, 2022 from an apartment in west Chico California. The two orange balls were in an area about 10 to 20 miles east of the city of Chico. I was unable to distinguish if the balls were a fire like substance or a artificial light. Both of the orange balls appeared at different intervals approximately 3 to 4 minutes apart from one another. I immediately checked the flight tracker after witnessing the aerial phenomenon and was able to locate only one flight in the area at the time and observed the airplane with a pair of binoculars north west of where I viewed the two orange ball phenomenons. The two orange balls went dark after a few minutes in the sky randomly. The two orange balls did not appear to be meteors as they were traveling far too slow to be a meteor. The flight data from the flight tracker website showed the airline at approximately 10,000 ft which is consistent with what I personally viewed after viewing the phenomenon. The pilot flying the airline may have witnessed the phenomenon as well. The flight was headed southbound from Seatac airport to the Sacramento airport. I am unsure if the phenomenon was extra terrestrial in nature. This phenomenon was something that I have never witnessed before in my life and I felt compelled to report my findings to you. Please follow up with me if you have any questions.

As I was driving home I looked up at the sky I thought it was a rainbow at first, setting to the right of the sun. Realizing there is no rain or clouds and began taking photos while I was driving on the road to my home.

Whittier, CA
I was driving North on the 605 freeway Dec. 23, 2022 @12:35 pm (with my spouse and my son) heading to L.A., and as the traffic slowed down to a crawl and momentary stop, I suddenly noticed up in the sky ahead a fleet of chevron shaped flying objects moving in unison in a semi circular to and fro pattern. They all were a shiny metallic color with a white top or bottom, it was difficult to discern as they were moving and when they did their turns they would completely disappear from the naked eye and then immediately reappear and continue to do their maneuver in unison. They did this for approximately 3 minutes, maybe a bit longer, then they just vanished. And by vanished, I mean they disappeared. They didn't fly anywhere else or towards another direction, they just completely instantly vanished.

Lompoc, CA
My friend and I were in my backyard. She went out to her car and yelled that there was something in the sky. I looked up and there was what looked like a bright orange ball in the sky. She yelled " there is another one" then another and another. Approx 45 seconds later I looked up and two more were coming. It appeared they were following each other. All going in a straight line. It was getting cloudy and they disappeared in the clouds. They appeared to be coming from the Southwest side of town going East.

Halfmoon bay, CA
Sitting on a bench at the moss beach distillery at halfmoon bay california. Around 6:50 pm . My girlfriend noticed a large rectangular shape tha appeared out of nowhere moving very fast. I was amazed and took a photo. I didn’t think I captured it but after looking at the picture I did get it on film. Also looking at the picture I noticed there is another shape I caught below it in the right. And thst appears to be a round light and in the center the circle is divided with light like you cut 8 pieces of pie. I have both objects in two pictures

I was driving home from work(security officer at an airport) around 8am when I saw a single silver looking object out of my right window, it wasn't really moving at all, more like hovering in the sky and when I rolled down my window to see if I could hear the sound a helicopter makes(originally thought it was a helicopter)I heard no sounds at all besides cars on the freeway, i kept watching it for about 30 to 40 seconds and then it just disappeared. About 6 to 8 months ago I saw almost the same silver object in apple valley CA, but it was closer and looked more the shape of a blimpie but it was also silver in color, barely moved, made no sound and disappeared within 60 seconds. On both occasions I was driving and it was a clear and sunny day with no clouds. I've never seen anything else like it before. There was no other aircraft in the area that I could see or hear other than this object.

Santa Barbara, CA
I was in a Lyft on the way from Agoura Hills up to the Santa Barbara airport. It was the middle of the night and very dark. The driver and I were having good conversation, when suddenly she just pointed to the sky and we both went silent. We couldn’t make sense of what we were seeing. The sky was filled with a horizontal, orange glow. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, a very, very brightly lighted object appeared and rose into the sky, disappearing into the night. It almost looked as though it had fire trailing after it, but not a long trail. It all happened very fast, as it seemed to disappear into the dark clouds. After that, both the driver and I kept searching the sky, wondering if we would see it again. We had no idea what it was, and the remainder of the ride was fully comprised of discussion about it. After the first sighting, we did see it again about two minutes later, but we did not see an object. We only saw that same orange hue in the sky. A horizontal glow. The Lyft driver thought she saw it a third time a few minutes later, just for a second, but I didn’t see that one. We kept talking about it, trying to make sense of it. We thought perhaps it was a missile or rocket or something, but that didn’t make sense, and it didn’t align with what we had seen. It was the orange horizontal glow across the sky that was very distinct and strange. We had no idea what it was, but by the end of the ride, we both agreed that it must have been a UFO. Neither of us had any ever seen anything like it in our entire lives. (I only finally thought to make a video by the time the Lyft driver thought she saw it a third time, but even though I wasn’t able to catch it, I figure I’ll upload it anyway. I also have a recording of us when we saw the first two.)

Hercules, CA
The Red Light reminded me of a spot light that you would see when a helicopter is looking for something below but it differed because it was bright red and it did not appear to shine downward or move in any direction. It suddenly appeared and stayed steady and red and the same size for approx a minute and then disappeared without appearing to get smaller as if it was moving further away. I did not see any other lights of any other color around it. The sky around it appeared/remained dark.

My two nieces Leslie and Diana where walking around the school campus after buying boba beverages. We arrived the scene around 8 PM. I noticed the lights and told them to look. We where perplexed at the speed and colors the where maneuvering. Sometimes they would scatter or form a triangle of some sort. It seemed like they where In sync with each other like a symphony because they wouldn't collide. It was seen towards the direction of the full moon behind the clouds. It started to rain when we left the scene at 10 PM.

I'm not sure how to best describe this but I looked out my window and notice a orange ball of light flying oddly it was not a play since they don't go up and down side to side like that I can't explain but this is not the first time I've see normally i see it at 2 or 3 am when I wake up not sure why I wake up at that time but I recently woke up to the same ball of light a bit close and during that time I had a sever headache not one I've experienced before the pain was unbearable as I looked at the light I went to grab my phone and it vanished into thin air thin air

Hiouchi, CA
We were camping in the woods near Hiouchi when we were awoken by wind. Pinecones wee loudly hitting the roof. Suddenly, a crash and tons of pinecones and branches fell from the tree above our tent. Light suddenly flashed in the sky, approximately 4 separate lights. Then, seconds later, the same pattern of lights, but they were anlged differently and above and to the side of the tent. It seemed to emanate from very close to our tent - no higher than the tree line. Moved silently. A few weeks before, we had heard a constant beeping going up and down the creek in the middle of the night around the same time. The beeping lasted around 10 minutes, going back and forth, noiselessly covering a lot of ground.

After getting in at about 11pm nightly I had just sat on the couch and had the living room curtains opened and turned on the tv an it was a few minutes later I just happened to look out and all of the sudden I see this fireball shooting across the night sky in a not so fast pace I got up and shocked an just watched it go across the sky until it just disappeared there was a tail of light behind it orange and yellow it seem large but in a distant I didn't know who to contact about this until I saw this ufo program posted so I decided to report it now I still can't believe my eyes the fireball was shooting from north to south no noise at all it just happened so fast that I froze. And I thought about getting a picture but I didn't have enough time it was there moving an 15 seconds later it's gone i have never ever experienced anything like this.

Bridgeport, CA
The craft was a short cylinder with domed-out ends. It was dark gold and had a glimmering greenish band on the upper part of the cylinder. I had stopped my car in the middle of the road and needed to pull over so I wouldn't get hit. I didn't want to take my eyes off the object. I quickly swiveled my head to see if I could pull off the road. When I turned back to the UFO it was gone. I got out of my car and looked 360 degrees to see if I could spot it. The craft had disappeared.

As I said, I saw this bright bright orb in the sky by Ellenwood shopping center in Pleasant Hill California. I posted on a neighborhood app called Nextdoor. No one else responded that they had seen anything. I’ve never seen anything like it. It wasn’t super large, just quick and very bright.

Heard multiple bomb explosion in the sky. Saw sparks follow by bomb explosion as if a cannon bomb was being fired. Saw a unexplained type of submarine/ship in the sky move towards the dark clouds and disappear. Saw multiple black drones fly towards that area. Explosion noise stopped. Heard police sirens on the ground. Minutes after a helicopter fly towards the area as if it was investigating. I was afraid thinking we were being under attack...

Novato, CA
On our way home from Santa Cruz. We were driving north. I was in the backseat and looked west and began staring at what i thought was the moon at first because of its size and brightness. after about 10 seconds i began to realize the moon wouldnt be in that location at that time of night. the craft was glowing a bright yellow color. it was about 2:00am. about the time i realized what i was looking at the craft moved inside of a cloud which began to glow the same yellow color. I told my friends in the front seat to look. i became very emotional and began to cry out of amazement from what i was looking at. this object was massive unlike anything ive seen in the sky before. it was about 200 yards in length. my frienda began to freak out when they saw the glowing clouds. we were still driving north and about 20 seconds later the craft and cloud had dissappeared behind a hill. we turned around to try and find it again but it had vanished. we drove west instead of north attempting to chase it but no other lights were seen.

I could not believe my eyes when something grabbed my attention because I noticed the slowest, gradual movement of this orange light, that I had seen before and thought was a shooting star in the past, but was a ship showing itself to me, and before (last year it did too and I never reported it because it never really came across my mind as significant how it almost looked like a shooting star) but this time, I literally stopped and started yelling out in public heyy omg look its a UFO!! And pointed and pointed and grabbed a stranger and he began recording it and talking to his girlfriend on the phone I believe... It was INSANE it literally stood there and moved left and right and it left a trail of light behind every time it moved, in a super swift manner. This time it wasnt running away to hide, it literally showed off and I pointed and screamed and hardly anyone believed me, let alone looked up themself to at least check to see what I was pointing at, instead they said I must be on some drugs or something, and I doubted myself a bit, but as I continued to walk around (I went to the bank ATM across the street and came walking back) it made a significant movement in a series of lines up and down and left and right and visible made itself noticeable to me again and was not stationary and moving around to show itself to me as a craft. then this object literally made a CLOUD VANISH and disappear, so I could see it move and stand stationary extremely clearly!!! I came inside to write this report and called my father and called the hotline from nuforc.org and mentioned how it was not leaving and literally staying there and would move when I looked at it, and its finally gone or I cannot see it anymore because the clouds came rolling through again and blocking my view again unfortunately which tells me there is someone putting these clouds up (possibly the military) to prevent us from being contacted because they are trying harder than ever literally in plain sight to get our attention and then have this technology to blast away the clouds and vaporize them and make clouds vanish so we can see the craft extra clearly, but then a tremendous wave of cloud patches came rolling through... its really unfortunate the amount of gangstalking the military is involved in and constantly covering up and lying to us about this and not letting these benevolent beings contact us... they are our family literally and I believe someone something out there is preventing us from contacting each other which makes me upset and sad for sure, but I know huge things are coming and all political activities will be disrupted by a hostile alien invasion of earth soon, for aliens will be soon fighting a planetary war here on Earth to try and conquer it..
