We thought we were seeing a meteor at first because it got fairly big and bright. It was a cloudy sky, so we thought maybe a helicopter at first. However, the object was very high and at one point had red streamers, like a comet, shooting out the back. The object then got dimmer at retreated up where it staying for a bit before dissappearing altogether.

Walking the dog I watched the light move from southwest to the northeast across the sky and disappeared. It appeared to be extremely high and did not move in a perfect straight line. I did not have my phone with me. There were no flashing lights. It was bright enough to be a planet like Venus but moved thru the sky .

I woke up earlier than normal, unable to sleep today. I took my dog outside and thought I'd watch the sun rise as well. As I looked to the east, I saw a ball of light with points coming off of it. I took my phone out and zoomed in tk take photos and videos. I watched its progression up the sky for 40 minutes before coming inside again. It is still out there, moving up.

It was around half the size of a car and had two green light on the front of it that were flashing and two red ones on the side that were not. Before i got up I heard a whale sound (reason for getting up) and then that’s when i saw it above me moving forward and it passed in about 7-10 seconds. There was no chance of me getting a picture because of how quick it happened and how shocked it was.

Panama City, FL
We were watching the stars, one of the stars dropped at a rapid speed for about 3 seconds, came to a complete stop, then slowly began moving right further towards the ocean. Now at 12:02, the object is still moving right but at a very slow pace. The only way we can tell it is moving it's distance from a nearby antenna and how it is seemingly moving further right from it.

Saw a very bright white light In the sky, brighter than A star, no flicker. I used phone to zoom in, focus reveals the objust is square in nature. And each focus revealed different structural features...

I sighted this object with another that looked like they were almost playing tag. The maneuvers the one particular had phenomenal aerobatics and constant zig zagging. My phone camera didn’t pickup as much as the naked eye. I watched till they finally went out of sight at almost 0450 hrs

After exiting AMC theatre looked up at storm clouds forming & noticed a fast moving silver ball or sphere heading NW and upward...it kept rapidly moving in a straight line and all of a sudden it turned solid black and then disappeared! sorry no photos as I was stunned and only lasted about 20-30 seconds!! Thought at first it was a balloon but it never bobbed in the wind or changed its trajectory! It was perfectly round.

I was outside smoking a cig with my wife & roommates and looked in the sky and saw this white light then all the sudden it shot up 1000 ft in a second and stayed still. Then it started shape shifting and showed a white light then red then green for about 5 minutes and then all the sudden boom it just vanished! All of us couldn’t believe what we had just seen!

Boynton Beach, FL
I was sitting in a chair, relaxing. A light shining in my eyes caught my attention. I looked up & several thousand feet above my head, was a multi sided, silver object rotating slowly back & forth. Each time one of the crafts sides was in the correct position, the sun reflected brightly into my eyes. I continued watching for 30 seconds & this activity continued. The craft was stationary. Zero movement but the rotating back & forth slowly. Zero noise. Zero smoke. Zero flame. Zero wings or propellers. Suddenly, it vanished. The craft did not fly away. It simply vanished.

Easiest for me to do is cut copy and paste this from my social media account First let me start with a couple of things about me; I have been a fulltime paramedic for going on 30 years and for the past 7 years a paramedic field supervisor, locally in the Tampa Bay area. Why do I feel this is worth mentioning? Training. I am trained to objectively observe things, several things at once in a high impact stressful environment. Patient condition and much much more. I have also been trained in investigations, being a supervisor a lot of times I must gather evidence, data, testimony and more to handle incidents or situations with our staff or the public. In all our training we are always reminded to remain objective, gather facts and evidence before concluding anything. Friday night (7/15/2022) between 7 pm and 730 pm in the evening, I was outside getting the grill ready to fix dinner. Now, I will tell you I live in Florida, just south of the city of Tampa on the Gulf Coast. Near me I have 2 commercial airports; Tampa International, St. Pete / Clearwater International, several small private airfields and then lastly MacDill AFB which is just off to my northwest. This is Hurricane hurricane/rainy season so while getting the grill going, I was checking the sky around me after hearing a couple rumbles of thunder in the distance to see if I needed to move my grilling dinner up onto the front porch. Seeing the clouds were forming off to my north and west it appeared that I had plenty of time and proceeded to lean up against my car waiting for my grill to finish burning so I could cover it and get ready to BBQ. While leaning up against my car and looking at the sky I could not help but notice a bright star-like object in the sky. It was definitely bright enough to grab your attention and seemed like it was more like a planet with the off to the west nearing sunset time. I thought about that for a minute while looking and realized that was not possible, working overnights like I do and following some basic astronomy the “parade of planets” has been on going in our morning sky between 4am and 6am, at that time we have been able to see 5 of our solar system neighbors; Venus, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, and Neptune. It was awfully bright to me if in fact it was a star, it was the only one visible. I sat staring at this object for a couple minutes when I decided to grab my phone out of my pocket grab a quick pic/video of it and then see if my Sky Safari app can help me solve the mystery. Now, this is where shit gets pretty cool. So, I got my camera up on my phone glanced back up to see where it was, I could see it was still just appearing like it was stationery so I quickly snapped a picture and then flipped to video to see if I could get a clearer image and zoom in. I started to record the object and began to talk so that I had some details matching the video and voice together. I rambled on about seeing the object, being in Florida and blah blah blah like a Charlie Brown school teacher for a few more seconds when the video stopped recording on its own, I had not stopped recording. A little message popped up on the bottom of my screen saying something like "internal camera failure" and exited camera mode to my home screen. (More details on this later so read on!) I was looking upwards at around a 60-75° angle, looking almost due south. It is close to 7:30p on Friday, July 15th, 2022, with an evening temperature with humidity at about Dragon's breath or somewhere in the mid 90s with high heat index. The trees that you see in the video next to the garage stand about 12-15 feet tall (The palm leaves are basically level to the peak of the garage). I had a great reference point, could clearly see the object still appearing like it was not moving so I quickly checked my camera to see if the picture and video saved, it did. Any time I have had a camera fail happen like this, it is almost always when attempting to open the app of as you snap a picture or hit record. I have never had my camera fail mid recording and worth noting, any failure I have had trying to take a photo or video, it has never saved, and I have had to start over again. So having the video capture and 1 photo, I proceeded to pull up Sky Safari to locate my star or planet. When I looked back up to my reference point and its entire surrounding area, the object was gone. I had been watching this object for at least 2-3 minutes in total, the object did not once appear to be moving, in any direction and now it is no longer there!!! With the Sky Safari App calibrated and ready, I pointed in the direction of where the object was and did find 1 possible match, Zubenelgenubi. It is one of the brighter stars in our night sky, but this is not yet a night sky and there are no other stars to be seen, anywhere. Also, Zubenelgenubi would have only been about 45-50 degrees up on the horizon which would have forced me to have X-ray vision to look through my neighbors' homes, like I said, I was looking upwards about 60-75 degrees. Living where I do, I am always used to the sights and sounds in the skies around me, like I said, several airports, a military base and plenty of medical, tourist, private, news and law enforcement helicopters... Not counting the 5 branches of military helicopters that fly in and out of MacDill plus Coast Guard. Almost daily I will see or hear helicopters fly directly over the house and when they are hovering, they are noisy! This made no noise that I could hear, which would include the winding like noises of drones, which fly overhead quite often as well. The other strange thing I noted, the absence of birds. I live about a mile in a half from the Gulf of Mexico nestled nicely in central Florida, birds!?!?? Yeah, lots of them are always flying around chirping like crazy, it is evening time which for a lot of our poultry foul like friends means feeding time. To match the coloring of what I was seeing in the sky, white, here are the birds off the top of my head that I could think of; Seagulls Egrets Storks Doves Ibis Pelicans Cranes Herons Not counting the white birds in our area, there are plenty of other birds that are always out during this time especially when the neighborhood cats are outside wreaking havoc. Mommaz and Thumby. 2 cats that rule the neighborhood most all hours of the day and night. I mention part because normally I can tell you where in our neighborhood these 2 troublemakers are by listening and watching the Blue Jays. They are territorial as hell, hate cats, squawk, and dive bomb them trying to shoo them away from their trees... Mommaz, was laying under my car. These Blue Jays should have lost their ever-loving mind on her laying there and....Nothing, silence. I was not convinced just yet that what I saw was something unknown and then proceeded to check Sky Safari for the “Big Objects” The ISS (International Space Station) and Hubble Space Telescope. Neither one of these had any orbit crossing over the state of Florida during that time frame. I could easily rule out anything from NASA or Elon’s SpaceX as the location of those from my vantage point were, north northeast of me (about 90 degrees from where I am looking and well out of my peripheral vision) and those launches do not typically happen during this time of night. (And there was nothing scheduled) So I went to my satellite tracking app and checked times and satellites and found 69 objects in space that were over the western hemisphere between 7:00 pm and 7:30 pm but, not 1 of them were crossing the south, yet alone Florida. The tracking app did list a few bigger satellites that were going to be visible and times but nothing that matched my time stamps. The next day while at work I spoke with a colleague of mine about it, he is a full-time professional pilot who works commercially and has access to flight tracking that most of us dream about. We sat and watched dozens and dozens of planes flying over the skies during that

Destin, FL
Driving Northbound on South Holiday Road while pausing for traffic at a stop sign, we looked outside our driver left window to the West and saw a white stationary oval object the size of an SUV that looked like it had a tail or streamers coming out of the back. We noticed that the object was blurry and out of focus compared to the surrounding clouds and trees. Once we passed a building that blocked our view for a moment, the object had disappeared.

It was a glowing cloud behind a flashing light and it looked like there was a spotlight all over the cloud but more specifically from the light. It was moving in downward/ side ways across the sky. Nufroc note: Rocket launch

New Smyrna Beach, FL
My daughter Catherine Hope Steele sent this to me around midnight. She was looking out from the beach towards the ocean on New Smyrna Beach last night and saw this. There are a few lights blinking to the right of the film. In my opinion they are aircraft heading to an airport or Cape Canaveral. But, to the left is a bright object that seems to glow and move strangely. My thought is that it could be a drone filming the storm. There’s supposed to be a SpaceX launch tonight or tomorrow so it could be someone testing out the drone camera. It just doesn’t seem to act like a drone though, and it glows. That concerns me. Would you be able to review the video and let me know what you think please? It would give us peace of mind if it’s just a drone.

Indian Harbour Beach, FL
Sitting outside looking at the stars on my back porch with my brother I saw the large dark craft coming towards us and over the apartment. While it was going over us it looked like it was changing formation and had an aura around it. When I first saw it was flying in a formation like a flock of birds, I couldn’t tell if it was multiple crafts or one giant one. It was really dark. It looked invisible. It was like flying very low like around 200 ft and silent. I know it sounds crazy…l’m hoping others saw it. It only lasted no more than 15 seconds once it went over the apartment we got up and checked the front it was gone.

While doing security I looked up and saw a matte black cylinder high up in the sky, looked like a reflection on the glass so I rolled down the window and still saw it “roll” across the sky fast.

Multiple UFO Sightings in Ormond Beach, FL ORMOND BEACH, FL Wednesday, July 6th, 2022: 9:47pm On Wednesday, July 6th, 2022, at around 9:47pm, my friend and I were hanging out on the 4th floor (top level) ocean-front private balcony of my room at the Outrigger Beach Club Resort in Ormond Beach, FL, when my friend noticed an object in the very clear night sky over the Atlantic Ocean, maybe somewhere in the vicinity of the Delphinus constellation (referenced after the sighting). He said to me, while not averting his gaze, "Hey look at that. It looks like it came out of nowhere." He had later told me that he had been looking at that part of the sky before he noticed the object. When I looked up I saw what looked like an amber orb moving slowly from north to south. I initially thought that it could have been a plane despite an absence of flashing anti-collision lights. This light was solid and spherical. After less than 10 seconds, the light started to slowly dim and shrink until it completely disappeared. Convinced that we had possibly seen a UFO, my friend began to look up radar data on the web for both commercial and military aircraft. There were no planes in the area at that time. I later confirmed that the International Space Station was in the Pacific Ocean during our sighting. We began tracking planes on radar and watched a few of them fly across the sky and noted how their flashing lights remained visible. We ruled out a drone entirely as the object seemed too high and far away. Coincidentally, immediately prior to the sighting my friend had been shooting his high-powered laser into the sky. Also, for another strange coincidence, earlier in the day my friend took photographs of a black frisbee I was tossing against the backdrop of the beach as a mock UFO encounter. It was just going to be something funny we showed our friends. While I wasn't thinking about this at the time of our sighting, it remains serendipitous to me on a personal level. And not to place any emphasis on this but it occurred the same day the Georgia Guidestones collapsed and the day after CERN was reactivated. Also we saw the SpaceX launch the next morning on the 7th. Friday, July 8th, 2022: 7:15pm (time approximated) On Friday, July 8th, at approximately 7:15pm, I was in the Hot Tub at the Outrigger Resort when a teenager by the name of Hunter (from Tennessee) called my attention to an object he was observing under the moon. I had told him of our Wednesday Night sighting maybe ten minutes before so he may have been primed to be looking at the sky. While I turned up and to the right (I was facing the beach), Hunter (facing away from the beach) was trying to describe how close to the moon it was by measuring with his hand in his line of sight. I scanned the sky under the moon and didn't see anything, but when I swept my eyes much further below the moon to the Southwest I saw a stationary object. He had said it was originally beneath the moon and he had initially thought it could have been a falling drone when it moved. My instinctual mental reaction was that the object (it looked round but too far away to distinguish) appeared as if it were reflecting light within our atmosphere (it was still daylight) rather than emitting light. However, I would have been happy to call it a star or even a planet had I not turned away for 2 seconds and looked back to see that it was gone. That section of the sky was very clear. No clouds. Immediately after there was a plane approaching from the west but that is not the object we had seen. The object appeared almost white, but in retrospect could have been reflective silver. The Outrigger is approximately a mile-and-a-half from the Aliki Towers where in September of 2020 an alleged UFO was spotted above in the clouds.
