We first saw what we thought was a star but knew it wasn’t. Looked down for a moment and saw the front yard light up, looked up and saw large space craft hovering over us. It had very bright green, red and blue lights. It turned on its side and then took off and vanished. It was directly above us for at least a few minutes.

Stopped at train tracks after a drive at sunset through the country. Took photo of train out of vehicle. Photo contained image of 4 round white unknown objects. I did not see personally, only through the photo. I did see photo while in the same spot and noticed the objects, when I looked back up there was nothing. There were also no stars out yet it wasn’t dark enough. Took other photos to show that there were no stars…

I was hired to photograph the football team and one of the images has a silver sphere/disk shape in the sky. This is the only image with the shape. I have processed two versions with different sharpening settings to enhance the shape. The following photo in the series was taken 3 seconds later and the object is not anywhere in the frame. I can provide the original raw camera file for further investigation but it cannot be published. It has individuals whom I have photographed as part of my photography business and do not have any permission from the people in the photo. If you would like to see the raw file you may contact me via my email, your site doesn't allow for NEF file uploads. Thanks

I'm trying to verify if this was a drone or not. I was lying on my back waiting for my partner & his sister to arrive with the house keys, and was just relaxing when I started counting stars. Then this light flew into view and disappeared. I have 3 videos of the same light. due to the speed it moves & the sudden change in direction, I don't believe it's an airplane. I thought I'd send it to you guys to get your thoughts.

At roughly 12 AM we saw a unidentified flying object (UFO) when we looked into the sky we noticed a long rectangular shaped object we saw briefly for about 30 seconds until it disappeared into thin air. When turning to look again it was gone and we did not see it again. All 23 of us reported seeing the uniidentified flying object (UFO). After further inspection we never see that again. After the first one disappeared we noticed one trolling it then a second, then a third, then a fourth, and then a fifth. Background into the observers we are all gay middle-aged men the lowest person being 42 and the highest being 56.

The same dot of light has been in the sky around 10 pm or so at night. It is outside my back door looking left in the sky. It is a clearing I decided to film it tonight on my camera and I couldn't believe what I saw. It was like a sphere and it disappeared and went away again. I am not sure how to explain I have never saw anything like it before

For initial description, please see the pictures. There is also an impressive red light activity around this UFO seen on the video I took of the sightseeing ( it’s 2 min and 45 sec long ) but which I am unfortunately unable to download on your site ( it’s a video using my IPhone ). However, I can certainly send it to you via email, should you find, from the pictures I downloaded that they appear to be potential UFO material.

Was fishing with friend. Crystal clear night. He noticed what he thought was a sattelite to me and I saw it as well. Was low but traveling at high rate of speed. East to west. We continued to tack it when it then made a hard turn and went straight up into space. Took about 10 seconds before it faded into darkness. Don't know what it was but neither of us have ever seen anything like it and both in our 60's. Was wild.

I was standing in the field facing due East. I was just trying to take a pic of the cloud structures..The sun was setting behind me where there is a wooded area. Again, I did not notice this "orb" when taking the picture. I reviewed it later. And saw that this could not have been a planet, and a moon or something celestial. I also check my camera lens to see if there was an aberration on the lens, and there was not a sign of smudges or dust specs etc. This circle in the pic is perfectly round. I am not sure what my camera captured, but this was not in my view at time of photograph. This was taken by an iphone SE. 12MP 4032x3024 KB resolution.

Newtripoli, PA
It was 7:15 PM still light out during a soccer game it was very bright and small and I thought to myself I might be just an airplane but then it started to get bigger and then it turned and it’s like the light shines off of it and it look like metal. It’s still in one spot it was a fireball it would’ve traveled but instead it was just getting bigger and staying in one spot and then another one appeared behind it like it split in half. I have a video of it I do not know how to post it it stayed in one spot for a good five minutes and then disappeared. I am 42 years old and have never seen anything like this before. I did not see this part but my son said that he seen army helicopters circling where the object was.

I was a passenger in a car and we were stopped at a traffic light. I noticed what I thought at first was a blimp. Then the object tuned and I noticed it was doughnut or ring shaped. It was silver and the sun was reflecting off of it. It did slow maneuvers by turning and flipping. It never made in real fast movements and didn't seem to be moving in any particular pattern or path.

I watched it come towards my area and slowly went west from where I was sitting. As it got closer I noticed that it was continuously changing shape. It was a bright white circle shape at first. Then it was zig zagging constantly. It just kept moving and then I couldn’t see it anymore.

I work as a Hospice CNA so I get up early in the morning so I can be at my first facility by 5:45 a.m, well I left the house about 5:10 a.m when I got on hwy 701 south heading towards which is about 4 or 5 miles from Bucksport I seen flashing lights ahead so I was like I know there's nobody working on the hwy this time of morning because school traffic and work traffic will be coming through soon, so I started slowing down before I came around a short curb but you can the flashing bright lights, when i came around the curb i slammed on breaks I almost ran in the ditch, there was a big hoovering sphere, it look like a hug disco ball with flashing lights, I couldn't believe what I was seeing, my heart started beating a 150 beats per minutes, this object was just hoovering in the middle of the road I close my eyes and then opened it again and it was still there, I looked at my phone which was on the passenger seat and i couldn't move to even pick it up that's how terrified i was, i watched this object come towards my car so i ducked down in my seat as it went by right beside my car i could see the pattern on this object changing it was just making a buzzing like sound not loud at all i watched it go over the tree lines and the colors on it turned green and it had it beams pointing on the ground like it was exploring the earth, when I looked again it shot off into the sky, I can't make this up, I don't want to see nothing like this again, I call Georgetown county police department to report it but i didn't think they took me serious.. I called my boyfriend to tell him and he said I should of recorded it, I told him I couldn't move I was scared and almost had a heart attack in my car, this is something I will never forget!!! We are not alone!!!!

They appear just above the neighbors home and shoot up still horizontal and parallel and sort of trace a check mark in the sky and then fade to black - they ended much higher up this time instead of hugging the tree line. The were nearly to the height of Cassiopeia constellation when they disappeared. My eldest Child reported seeing these above our house on the early morning of the 24th of Aug - said it was flashing and spinning and going nuts over the house. I was asleep. I looked to see if anyone else reported seeing either the same or similar configurations Or lights but no one thus far.

A square craft with what looked like a rectangle and an opening in the center that looked like an entrance to another dimension and there was a small lighted phenomenon beside of it.Cell phone photo is attached. The photo needs to be expanded and look to the right of the building.

Seen in the process of driving to Iowa City from St. Paul, MN. Bright light, Green or possibly white two witnesses have differing views. Came over the top of vehicle visible through sunroof and then windshield. Didn't seem to be moving exceedingly fast, after being visible for 5-10 seconds it looked like it raced off straight ahead disappearing within a second. I know this probably isn't a terribly large amount of information but it'd be cool to know if there was a meteor or anything spotted in the area. If anyone tracks those sort of things.

I was standing on my back porch facing East and what I first thought was a bright shooting star that got really bright but it moved unusually slow from left to right in the sky. The light faded and all of a sudden another light appeared where the first one started. The second, third, fourth, and fifth lights followed the same path, duration, brightness and fading. I panicked to get family but the lights seemed to have moved farther away and lower in the sky which made them hard to see with the faint clouds. About 10 minutes later we heard and saw a large helicopter flying west over our house. I have never seen anything like this and I love watching the sky at night with the planes, satellites, space station, meteors. I feel kinda silly posting this but it was so unusual. Possibly Starlink

I was watching the sunset after my son had got me out of the house finally from telling me two different times that he kept seeing something in the sky. When I seen a single engine airplane creating exhaust clouds. I then noticed another object following it as it proceeded to gain on the airplane following in the plane am exhaust clouds.The UAP then passed the plane and put much distance between them. The object never once let out any similar exhaust from a motor like engine a typical airplane would have. The object most DEFINITELY came in contact with that air pilot. I wouldn’t doubt if he made a report himself as the UAP was extremely close to the plane as it passed it..It followed the exact path of the airplane from the beginning of the planes clouds to passing it. As the UAP went into airplanes clouds it wasn’t able to be seen.

Standing in backyard, hanging clothes on the line. Facing the East, I caught a glimpse of an extremely BRIGHT, blueish FLASH in the SE sky. I never saw a 'craft', but whatever I caught with my eye, was not of this world. It was morning, around 1030am today. In 44 years, I have never seen anything like that before. I am of sound mind, I am a nurse. I will keep what I saw to myself, and not talk about it with anyone. I'm still trying to process it.
