The lights appeared to be broken up into separate distinct lights, like you would expect from an airplane window with solid spaces between the lights, but in an irregular pattern. I see airplanes and jets all day and nights around here (I'm near an airport), but it looked nothing like any plane I have ever seen. As it was directly over head I specifically listened for any sound and heard nothing. I looked to see if there was a body to the object,then noticed the line of lights was preceded and followed by a couple of ligths in the same straight line formation as the others, but separated by a lenghtly distance. The overall length was huge, way to big for any commercial jetliner, and flying to low to not be making a very loud noise; I estimate it's altitude was about 2,500 ft. high. I watched as it flew in a straight line eastward until it flew out of sight. Very bizzare. I have piloted private airplanes with my father since I was 15, and have lived in the area of Paine Fie! ld for approx. 35 years., travelling in commercial airplanes and jets of all sizes over the last 40 years, and have never before seen anything the likes of what I saw tonight.

Everett, WA
At about 9:00pm on May 4th, my boyfriend and I decided to walk to the store. While walking I happened to look up and we saw about 15 or so lights that were in a straight line contracting moving away from each other then shortly after retracted and disappeared. They stayed in a straight line and the best way of describing it was like a coil or slinky being stretched. As the line formation contracted the lights grew further apart yet held in line formation and at the end before disappearing they retracted coming back together as one and then disappeared. Both of us tried taking video and pictures with our phones and were both strangely unable to as both froze... Strangest yet most intriguing thing I’ve ever seen!

I did not notice the object until I reviewed the videos that I had collected on the sd card in my drone. I was flying my DJI drone over the green belt behind my house when my low battery indicator came on so I lowered the gimbal to look straight down while descending to the takeoff point. The drone was at 300 ft when it captured the fast moving object that looks like white slightly stretched ball although that could be motion blur. The object is only visible in three frames of the 30 FPS I was shooting in. The object is moving much faster then any bird or insect I have captured in hd. I recently watched a show called contact on the discovery network witch aired a segment of a very similar incident. A drone pilot was capturing b roll when he also captures a fast moving object. He also noticed it later when reviewing the vid. I believe have the same thing stored on my laptop and sd card.

I was taking a drink and as I tilted my head back I noticed a black circle object floating in the air pretty high up. we are right in the flight path for SeaTac airport this was above the flight path and plane were not as high as this was. planes were aprox 5000 feet up. this object was not moving at all. We watched in and tried to figure out what it was for 10-15 min. Then it lifted up into the cloud cover and disappeared. It was only partially overcast and as the cloud moved by it was nowhere in the sky. Also took video and pictures.

Everett, WA
I was driving south in interstate 5 (I-5) by Dagmars boat yard south of Marysville when I saw three bright lights in front of the cloud cover in triangle formation. Ii was huge but they were separate craft. By the time I got to Everett they had spread apart further. One was over Snohomish area east of Everett, another was west over Boeing, the third was south west of Everett, it was difficult for me to follow and see these while driving. They were very bright and twinkling cycling red white and blue. They seemed higher in the sky but they seemed lower the closer I got to them maybe 500 feet in the air at the lowest point.

Bremerton, WA
I was in my backyard with my toddler and baby. I was sitting with the baby in the shade and my toddler was playing in her sandbox. I saw an Airplane flying southeasterly and pointed at it to show her. I looked at her to see if she was looking in the direction I was pointing and when I looked back at the plane I saw another object flying lower than the plane and much faster, heading northeasterly. The object looked white and shaped like a Mentos. I did not observe it for long due to trees in my field of view nor was there any time to document it with a video or photo.

Kent, WA
I was driving north on the Kent Black Diamond Rd. I had passed Jenkins Creek and there was farmland to my left. All of a sudden at around 9:50 PM PST, I saw a little white circle travelling between 60 and 120 mph up off in the left part of the sky, my left. It went down in a diagonal, the direction of the letter N, and disappeared. It was not a plane or a reflection. It was too big to be a star, and the edges of it were too well defined, very circular. Bright white like the moon, kind of. It could have been a drone, but why was it going so fast? I was able to estimate the speed of the light because I drove under highway 18 a minute later. The bright circular object was going at least as fast as those cars, maybe up to twice as fast.

Longview, WA
While driving Northbound across the Longview/Rainier bridge, I spotted a white flattened oval shaped object through the girder structure of the bridge. I hoped to myself, "Watch, it'll probably take off at a high rate of speed the minute I can see it clearly." However, once clear of the bridge structure the object was gone completely. I could not see it anywhere in the sky. This was a definite object about the size of perhaps a medium sized plane at approximately 3,000 feet but had no flight characteristics of an aircraft designed for flight in our atmosphere. No wings, no rotors, no balloon. It was a brilliant white but was not illuminated. I saw it in clear sun lit skies. It was also independent of the bridge. In other words not something stuck in the girders. It was an object in the sky that suddenly wasn't there anymore. I wasn't drinking or on any drugs or anything. But I can't explain it other than how I just did.

I am interested in the subject of UFO/UAPs and consistently look up to try to catch something. This is the first time I have seen any thing odd that I couldn't really shrug off. This occurred Thursday April 15 2021 @ about 10:16 PM. I was taking my dog out for the last time before bed, The weather in western Washington has been beautiful the past few days. I look up at the stars as I always try to do if it is clear. I noticed a formation of objects , I think 6 in total but I cant recall exactly because it happened so quickly. There were 4 objects in a line and 2 off to the side. The formation was moving in a south to north direction. They were a dark gray color against the dark navy blue sky. They were very hard to see, but they had zero deviation in the individual objects shape and the formation. No lights at all, no sound, my dog did not notice anything. They seemed to be much lower than satellites, and planes often fly in the airspace waiting to land at SeaTac airport... but these had no lights at all and no sound. I will send a quick sketch to help visualize.

Camas, WA
I saw a slow moving black rectangle in the sky, tonight. We saw it for about 10 seconds, and it was between 8:30 and 8:40 PM. It was in the sky east of PDX airport north of the Columbia River. It was moving to the north and completely black, no lights. However it was followed or accompanied by what I think was a helicopter that did have blinking lights. I judged it to be about the same height as the fuselage of a 737 and a bit shorter than a 737. This is based on my assumption that the following aircraft was at the same distance as the rectangle. We were driving west at dusk on SR-14. It was silhouetted. I did see the lights on whatever was following it, but no lights on the rectangle. It caught my attention because it was moving too slowly for a fixed-wing aircraft, but was bigger than a helicopter. At first it didn’t register and then I said to my wife “what was that thing?!” She had seen it too but by that time it had gone out of view. Shape was a rectangle with sharp corners, and no bumps, wings, rotors or anything, at least not that I noticed.

04.11.21. 12:11 pm, clear day. Silver/gray spherical ball first observed kinda hovering above a mesa. The mesa is about 1000 feet above ground level. Sphere hovers and within 10 seconds, quickly shoots up higher in the sky and then disappears. Have two photos of distancing of the sphere. Electric City is at the Coulee Dam.

I looked up into the sky and saw what at first looked like a shooting star, a ball of light zoomed FAST down and then it went straight up. This was MUCH faster than an airplane and it went down and then up very fast, color was redish and seemed to be blinking.

Seattle, WA
I was driving to my 5am work shift. It was 4:45am and I was the only one on the road. I wasn’t even listening to music because I was trying to get my Apple Music to work and it wasn’t connecting. As I’m driving, a huge spotlight appears on the road above my car and slightly to the left. It quickly moves to the left, then it moves to the right. Then it sees my car and settles on my car and me. It was dead silent. I sped up to get away and it disappeared. I was driving north on 15th Ave before the Ballard bridge in Seattle, Washington. I’m not crazy, there was no streetlights or helicopters above me or anything and the moon wasn’t even visible like it was pitch black, silent, and I was alone. It was about 20 seconds long. I was unsettled all day. The beam of light wasn’t really visible, just the circle of light on the ground. It felt like someone shining a flashlight from above and seeing movement (my car) and settling on it. It also kept pace with being above my car as I moved until it settled on me. It was illuminated inside the car as well. Extremely unsettling. What is even more unsettling is this was on Wednesday and after work I had an errand to run with a friend that was very memorable for the two of us and we took photos even. That night, I had a dream that was extremely vivid and detailed and it was a complete “re-do” of my Wednesday - I had slept in for my shift at work but still went in, worked a whole shift, had meaningful conversations with people, went home and napped on the couch. I woke up in bed then next day (Thursday) stunned by my dream. I usually do not dream at all. It could be a coincidence, or it could be a possible tampering of my conception of time and try to “replace” that day? I told the friend I went on the errand with about the spotlight as soon as it happened and then about the dream. They confirmed that Wednesday happened just as inexperienced (the spotlight in the morning and then the errand) and that I did not disappear. The photos we took are still on my phone, as is all my messages about the spotligh! t. I am just so unsettled by the entire occurrence. I was absolutely being watched.

We saw a huge, green light flash, then move across the sky and dissapear. It was very different than a shoiting star or slow moving satellite.

Shoreline, WA
My wife and I were heading northbound on Interstate 5 at approximately 20:38 on 02 April 2021. Having just traveled past the north Seattle City limits and entering Shoreline, WA, we both saw, to our surprise, a large glowing green round object streak through the sky in the northbound direction. Although it appeared as a ball of light, the edges of the object were less defined as if the object had a glow to it. Our visibility through the windshield was at best 35-40 degrees of the sky, through which the object appeared for less than two seconds, indicating it is estimated to have been traveling at a speed several times faster than the speed of sound.

the 24 craft were in a formation. coming from a lower altitude ( possibly from the columbia river) and climbing to higher altitude. most likely a dark color with orange torch coming out the back of the craft. There was no noise from the crafts. The most beautiful event I have ever seen !

It’s really hard to explain... other than at first sight would be a meteorite. But after only a second I could quickly understand that there’s is no way a meteor would be a straight line of interchangeable lights stretching a vast majority of the night sky. It was so perfect and straight and never loosing size. It worked in perfect harmony with one another as the straight line of flashing lights carved in a very straight direction going into the earths curve where I began to loose sight. I was able to grab some footage.

I was heading northbound on White Trails rd between quincy wa and wenatchee wa on my way to wenatchee wa. I was a couple miles south of 28 w when up in the sky, above my truck, from east to west, a red orb lower than a plane ought to have been, between 500-1000 ft, went across the sky faster than any aircraft I have ever seen. No sound, exhaust or tail. It seemed like a shooting star but way slower and no tail. It was the weirdest aerial phenomenon I have ever seen. It crossed the entire sky in a matter of seconds.
