Gladwin, MI
Straight line of three bright lights; solid. Almost seemed connected, if looking closely they all seemed connected by a thin white line. Did not follow what seemed to be a natural orbit compared to the visible satellites the sky at the time. The lights moved from the west to northeast at great speed. The best way to compare this would be to say it looked like orions belt moving quickly across the sky. Experience recorded by cellular device but lights are not visible but audio reactions audible. Space Link satellites. PD

Three bright lights evenly spaced in a line, one in front of the other, with a faint tail of 3-4 lesser bright lights, one in front of the other. Appeared to be under a larger cigar shaped object. Moving from west to east at a rapid rate of speed. Space Link satellites?? PD

I was looking out at a star but this star is somewhat odd because it seemed to have different color lights admitting from it. I started seeing some oranges lights coming above the tree line. What made me look out was the loud plane like sound but it didn’t last long like usual. Then all of a sudden 3 quote large spot light orange lights, very low in a v like shape appeared right out of no where! The three lights looked like they were right over our house. They stayed in the v for about 10 seconds. I grabbed my phone and flashed a picture and they then started moving in a fast circler way and just disappeared completely after about 30-45 seconds. It was like they just came out of the stars. Afterwards tons of planes started roaming the same area. It’s calmed down, but you can still hear craft outside.

I was sitting in the car with my grandmother. We were going out for her birthday. While at the light waiting for heavy traffic, I look over goguac lake. That's when I notice a metallic silver Ball floating in the sky. At first I thought it was Venus, but the time and position made no sense for it to be. Right as I got my grandmother's attention, she looks over and we witness the crafte appear to "blink" out of sight. Like a blip. It just vanished from sight.

Farmington Hills, MI
It was about 7:10 p.m. tonight, I was at work checking on some mechanical equipment, when I saw a jet leaving a large contrail. I immediately noticed 3 objects blinking on and off going in multiple directions. They would be on for a second or two then go off and reappear again in a different area. They appeared directly overhead and I would estimate to be very high up like tens of thousands of feet. I was trying to get pictures but when my phone camera was turned on I looked up and they were gone. Very weird I thought! I am an avid skywatcher and have never seen something like this before...especially in daylight.

Battle Creek, MI
Saw 2 flashes of bright white light at 160 degrees on the southern horizon. There are no clouds, a clear night, and no storms in the vicinity. A Facebook post made by me had confirmation of the same lighting by a friend who does not live nearby, but still witnessed the flashes within the city limits.

Southgate, MI
On April 13, 2019, in mid-afternoon I witnessed a UFO flying over my house. It was traveling south to north, was very fast, and didn't make a sound. It was about as high as a jet airliner is when it is on approach to land (500ft?). I am sure it was a UFO because I saw the same type of craft 2-3 days before the incident. At that time the craft was a farther distance from me, flying from south to north and more east of me towards Wyandotte and the Detroit River.

Lansing, MI
I thought the cloud was an airliner getting ready to land at the Lansing Capitol Airport because I thought the sun light was reflecting off the plane. As I continued to the stop light at N. Market Place Blvd, I decided that it was not a plane, but I thought how odd this cloud was, rectangular shaped but the edges and corners were not sharp rather cloud like and white in color. There was quite a contrast between the rectangular cloud and the clouds around the horizon. The sky above the horizon was clear except for the white rectangular cloud. The time was 7:16AM. I drove on and got on 96 West and did not notice the rectangular cloud at all. I exited on Grand River Avenue heading East to where I work near the airport. I drove past the Marathon pumping station and noticed the rectangular cloud again. As I looked at while driving, I noticed that the cloud evaporated from the inside out. I thought this was a very odd phenomenon. I have never seen a cloud evaporate from the inside out before in my life. The time was 7:20AM. No other airplanes were in the air. Is this a normal aerial phenomenon?

Park Township (Holland), MI
On the night of April 9, I was out doing some Milky Way imaging with my skytracker that compensates for the earths rotation therefore keeping stars and planets still in images. The next day while reviewing my images I saw an image that has an unidentified flying object in the frame. I have no logical explanation for what it could be. My mirror was locked on my camera and I was no where near my tripod to have hit the tripod to create such an effect. I was hiding from the wind in another location and did not witness this with my eyes. Images were taken At the big red lighthouse in Holland MI. The artifact is on my image at 0430.

Around 9:30-10:00 p.M. i heard what i thought was a helicopter or airplane very close to my home.. i looked out a window and was confused and frightened by what appeared to be a very small ufo flying in a fairly straight line right over a tree in my backyard.. the red and green lights pulsating around it is what caught my attention or i probably would've missed it.. i stared at it for a few seconds trying to figure out if i was looking at a drone because it really was small.. i'd say it appeared to be about the size of a kite(?), but no more than 3 ft in diameter. but then i got a very uneasy and panicky type feeling and moved away from the window. i then felt the need to protect my son so i sat near him(he is 9 and was sleeping). i don't know why i was so frightened because it was much smaller than i imagined a ufo be and also because (although i never actually saw it) i think the "helicopter" was a distraction.

I was letting my dogs out, looked up and noticed two moving lights heading north east. Then stanind and observing I noticed more that were all in a line heading the same direction( north east). I even had time to run in and grab my phone and record a couple.

I don't know exactly what it was but it looked like a disk. It had a shiny light coming out of it. It was picking up a cow.

My fiancé and I were in the hot tub on Monday 3/25/19 in Jackson, Michigan, at approximately 10 PM. It was a clear night with many stars visible. We were looking in the direction of Orion’s Belt to the Southwest, when we saw a line formation directly overhead, consisting of 6 lights, traveling from East to West, at a high rate of speed. From directly overhead to out of sight to the west took about 4 to 5 seconds. It appeared to be a long thin illuminated light shaft with 6 distinct circular lights evenly spaced along the shaft. It disappeared into the western sky. This was followed several minutes later by a similar sighting basically following the first one’s path. Then several minutes later there were two more that traversed Southeast to Northwest and then another few minutes passed, when we saw two more traveling North to South. Next, a V formation of lights, 3 or 4 lights on each side of the V, was seen traveling East to West, basically following the path of the first light shaft. ,This was followed by a similar, or the same, V light formation traveling from SE to NW. Then there was a larger V formation traveling E to W. ,Then a few minutes passed before one larger circular or spherical illuminated object was observed rapidly traveling East to West along the same path as the V formations. ,Several minutes later, another two V-shaped objects, one following the other, were observed traveling NE to SW. ,And then after a few minutes, one more V was observed traveling W to E low in the Southern sky. Shortly after the last sighting, we saw a commercial jet aircraft, traveling N to S, at an estimated altitude of 20,000 feet based on the relative size of its navigation lights. Based on this, the unidentified formations were above this at around 30,000 feet. Sightings ended at 10:48. I am a former Navy submarine officer and retired engineer. My fiance'is a retired practical nurse and massage therapist.

Driving down the road and stopped at the traffic light. A very bright ball, led type light passed into the top of my line of sight when I looked up I watched it quickly pick up pace. Passed horizontally threw sky and omitted bright flash when disappearing into the clouds. Object did not look like a meteor or shooting star it was larger and more defined than that. Had a minor black haze around the bright light

Bloomfield Twp., MI
It was sort of triangular-with rounded edges. Saw it moving in different directions-not a huge distance-up and down,side to side. At one point it seemed to move closer at which point I saw other flashes of light to the left of craft. It was a smaller object very close to my neighbors roof-flashing white lights. I almost thought it was a small drone but as soon the small one showed up, the large craft seemed to get farther and farther away. Two raccoons also climbed on the my neighbor's roof looking to check it out. Once lights disappeared the racoons climbed down the tree and I went inside as to not be in danger of them. Hard to say in these times if we are seeing UFOs or drones or military craft however this one behaved very different as if traveling in flashes not mph.

The craft was triangle in shape. It had a light at each corner of the triangle. When passed overhead, it had a complete circle of white lights that encompassed most of the surface of the craft. It was too dark to see the color of the craft. The craft made no noise. It hovered over a house, very closely, before turning and flying to the center of my acreage. It then hovered on an angle and flew west about an acre. It turned back east and flew about an acre before turning southwest to fly off over the lake. It was slow moving at first and then sped up dramatically.

I am a grad student at Michigan tech. During spring break, me and six other people rented a cabin. We were going snowshoeing and cross country skiing. On the last day of the trip (which I believe was March 10) we all went outside to stand on the the frozen lake to look at the stars. It was maybe 9:30 pm. The first light just appeared in the sky. It was bright white and looked far away. It was moving very fast in complicated maneuvers. A second light appeared, this one started following the first lights movement by tailing it closely. In unison, the lights "dropped" what looked like a flashing orbs. The flash was bright white. The orbs fell directly down from the lights, they did not follow light's trajectory. The orbs flashed five times and vanished. A third light appeared in the sky. All 3 lights sped off. There were 3 sonic booms. The event lasted maybe a minute. When I looked at my phone, I remember it being very close to 10 pm. We had some drinks with our food before the event. None of us were drunk during the event.

It is unbelievable that I can send actual video and it gets ignored. No wonder the mainstream media considers this a joke. I have also had my reports scrubbed. Despite the video. Again: A joke. I send real video and nobody gives a shit. Ufology is a complete joke. We have e-mailed the witness, requesting information pertaining to the alleged film. Our records indicate that we received no such photographic evidence. PD

I was thinking to myself about looking outside and looking at nature and I’m looking in the sky and I see a rectangle like box with a bright light to the left of it and the extrior was white almost. I was staring at it for so long because I thought it was a plane until it went into a steep incline into the clouds.
