I've seen these fireballs in June of this year and before in May of 2020! They usually come in twos one behind the other. My first time seeing them was in June of 2016! They are so hot coming in at a cruising speed and then as they descend into the atmosphere they start to cool and turn dark orange and keep cruising til u can't see them in the night sky. I saw one going East in June and tonight this one was going south.! Why are they here? What are they doing? One thing is I've seen em enough to start believing! The first couple of times I was in doubt. And I know they have to see them! As I write them it just came back and flashed me and my brother as I was telling him!

Hudson, NY, NY
I was about to go to bed and had the window open facing West and saw a large aircraft moving north. What gave me pause was the size, the shape, and the fact that there was no noise. It was a large triangular shape, solid black silhouette with a single red light. It was approx the length of a football field and seemed to be above the Hudson River which is less than a mile from my house. It moved as slowly as large boats do maybe 5-10 mph. Like a blimp. No sound at all. But it was a large vertical triangle. Maybe 500-800 feet above ground. I was trying to figure out what kind of aircraft it was but after it passed and noted it I can conclude I have never seen anything like this before. Since West Point is close and we have military aircraft travel over us from time to time I figured it initially might be something military related. But after some research it seems like there are no aircraft that size in that description.

We were traveling eastbound route 16. First spotted two huge headlights just above the tree line to our left (north). Only saw headlights until it was directly overhead, craft made NO sound at all on approach or after it passed us - only heard a light engine whine sound when directly overhead - We saw the underside of the craft it looked like a gigantic drone approximately the size of at least one big military tank. The craft was approximately 150 feet overhead - it seemed to clear the trees but was extremely low flying. Underside of the craft had grey / sliver markings that were in box like patterns - reminded me of the Star Wars space station markings. The craft appeared to gently glide past us heading into the corn field to our right (south). Thought it was going to land in the corn but lost sight of it as the corn was high. our travel speed was about 45mph and this craft we estimate to be traveling at no more than 30 to 40 mph. My husband is a private pilot, and he was shocked at the lack of prop wash or jet sounds to keep the craft airborne. Husband also noted one red light atop the vehicle, and he noted no typical aviation / navigation lighting. Husband was shocked how the size was able to stay airborne with such low speed. My husband and I each drew what we saw (see illustrations below)

I first thought it was a plane because of how bright the light was, except I didn't hear a sound and there were no other color lights, just the white. As I was videotaping it, my phone stopped recording because I ran out of space. By the time I started recording again, it looked like it was moving further away, like out into space, to where I could no longer see it anymore. It wasn't because something was blocking my line of sight, the object was definitely getting further away from Earth.

I saw plasma orbs and UFO. I had an experience on election night 20/20 and it took took my breath away it was beautiful it was approximately 18 in away 4 inches off the ground gold and purple dense but translucent barely a whirring sound and it was 18 inches away from me for almost I would say 10 seconds and then as fast as well faster than what we can think of it was going I went to thirds of my property and made it right into the cedars and then I saw my second sighting 4 months later after the second thing I saw it all the time if there's not all clouds in the sky if there's any clearing they're there

My wife and I notice a big object in the sky. Thought at first it was a star but it kept getting brighter then fading repeatedly. As we were looking at that object, two smaller white orbs traveled toward the larger one at a high rate of speed. One of the orbs moved up and around the other. At the same time the main larger object got brighter then faded out. Minutes later we noticed several planes in the immediate area. I was able to capture it on my phone’s video. When you zoom in on the larger object, it appears to have a black circle in the middle. I have never seen anything in the sky behave that way and have no idea what it could have been.

Saw a black cigar craft suspended in the sky between a few trees out of a window at my house. The craft was visible for about 10 minutes then disappeared and reappeared within 5 minutes in the same spot only to disappear for good shortly after.

I witnessed a very bright sphere shaped object. It appeared to be sitting stationary above the hills on the horizon for approximately 8 minutes. We have an main airport, smaller airports and an Air Force base nearby, so we're used to seeing various planes and helicopters. It was close to sunset and I was walking my dogs at the time. The object appeared to be too large to be a star and too small to be the moon at that distance. It seemed to be about 3-4 miles out. I continued to walk with slowly with my dogs as I watched the object. However, at one point both of my dogs stopped and stared in the same direction as well. The object disappeared from view after approximately 8 minutes. I saw a plane fly through the area shortly after. The plane was easy to identify due to it's blinking light pattern and exhaust trail.

I was filming the sky all night and at 4:06 am I was wrapping up I took the camera off the tripod and I was filming Jupiter and all of a sudden I noticed this cigar shape object fly past my camera was in the perfect spot so I just follow it. I said to myself that’s wild. I had this feeling that I was gonna see something so you hear me saying to myself I knew it I felt it was going to happen I said it. I just had this gut feeling to look in that direction and I’m so glad I did.

This light is 50 times larger and brighter then ISS which I've seen fly over as well. I'm not sure what it is. It's been in view for more then half an hour and it seems to not follow our rotation. Barely notice it move if at all.

I woke up from dream that was not UFO related at around 1:26am. I stepped outside to smoke a cigarette. It is very dark where I live and you can see everything in the sky. I was looking straight up and towards the north at Orions Belt and saw an object that looked further than a satellite but slightly bigger. The object looked too far to make out any shape but did flash a gold-whitish light 4 times as it moved slowly through the Belt. After the 4th flash a flash behind it like a faint lightening flash and then it was gone. It seemed to just dissappear. About 5 mins later I saw a satellite moving north to south. Seeing satellites all the time this was definitely not a satellite!

The light in the front blinked and another followed. It stayed exactly the same distance the whole time. It traveled slow and steadily and did not change path. The lights were too far apart for me to think it was one plane in the distance. And it traveled to slow for me to think it was a large plane closer. I could not see anything that would connect the lights.

Sandusky, OH
Came into my room after using the bathroom and looked out the window to notice a very bright light hovering in the sky. After standing and observing I started recording and trying to observe with binoculars. After that, I noticed two more lights towards the bottom of the water horizon but they were aligning in a triangle form. I then ran outside with my girlfriend to record and called my parents. After getting outside, there were only two lights left with the large one at the top becoming so bright it illuminated the water below it all the way to the beach. The craft was first observed out towards Cleveland and cleared a space from there to cedar point in what seemed like under a minute. The second craft at the bottom then disappeared only leaving the largest one. I then observed the large craft through the binoculars to which I noticed 6 lights that didn’t flicker like a plane. It looked like a cigar but was horizontal instead of vertical. After observing the shape and color the craft disappeared over cedar point.

The object was moving north to south at 7:17pm. I looked up flight data and didn't see any aircraft traveling in this direction. It was moving rather fast and went all the way across the sky. No condensation trail and no sound at all. I didn't see any wings. It appeared to be pretty high up and must have covered 20 miles in 30 seconds. Note - there is a dragon fly in the image as well, about 30 ft above me off to the left. I've been trying to look up most evenings and I've never seen anything odd. I have spa and will star gaze from time to time in the evening. I can see satellites from time to time, but those appear much smaller and moving slower. Look more like a slow moving star. This was nothing like that and still very sunny outside. My wife and I enjoy sitting outside in the evening in our backyard. I notice a number of planes regularly. Most are traveling west to east from the bay area and are very easy to make out. We see helicopters from time to time as well. All of those are very clear and obvious. If this was a drone, it appeared to be very high in the sky and came from at least Lodi and disappeared well south of here past Lathrop, Ca. Looking up flights during that time, nothing was in the area moving in that direction.

Attention was drawn skyward as a friend and I couldn't decide if the lights we were watching were an airliner or a small drone. Grabbed optics, confirmed it as a commercial flight heading north at a high alt. Continued to look at the stars when it hit us, some of the stars are moving. Moving, stopping for awhile, moving again. Changing directions multiple times. Some moving gracefully and others rapidly. Multiple different ones going different directions vanished for no reason, all stars still unobstructed around the spot they just disappeared in. Unable to make out any discernable details with optics. They must be extremely high in alt. Much higher than the airline that just flew through the same sky. Hard to say how many for sure. It's still taking place. We've also been tracking individual ones and likely missing several more. Bizarrely there are these incredibly fast moving (faster than meteors) streaks of pure white light that are all going in the same direction roughly SW to W. Only visible for literally just split second flashes. Most of them you can't look directly at before they're already gone. The sun is Rising now, stars are fading. These moving objects are still visible. I'm looking at Jupiter sitting high and bright directly in front of me, the rising moon is sitting right on my left shoulder. At "1:30" from me if Jupiter itself is the 12th hour on the clock face, is the section of sky these white lightning fast, faster than lightning actually, streaks are flashing. Only to my right and nowhere else. The moving objects are everywhere in the in my field of view of the sky. Some seem to be twinkling much like a star. Others are much more bold with contrast flashing from white to red, to blue, to white, to green, but very fast and unmistakably cycling through several different colors. Absolutely no sound of any kind. Truly a once in a lifetime moment right now. I'm in disbelief that I would ever find myself feeling obligated to report this, and that I'm getting to see this with my own eyes. Incredible is all I can say. I stare at the night sky all the time through different optics. I love looking at the same old moon face I see every time, like it's the first time up close. I like to take amateur photos of the moon, planets, and other things easily seen with very low cost equipment or my phone. I've never seen even 1 or 2 objects like this ever before. Suddenly they're absolutely all over the sky. My biggest regret now is that I didn't start looking much sooner.

Intercourse, PA
I'm visiting my parents in their 55 and up community from NH. I was walking around the paved path that marks the perimeter and when I was on the far side from my parents, the west side, I saw a red dot moving silently north. I look away for a second and it was gone. As I continued I got closer to my parents place and up in the sky over the farm I see the light again, this time moving east to south. As it did it made a harder bank and came back at me, then almost immediately banked back around on its original heading. I looked down for 1 second and it was gone again. I could see and hear other aircraft in the area and I've worked on a flightline in the Air Force, I've never seen anything make that kind of maneuver that tight and not have strobes on it or make a sound and just be a small silent red dot in the sky over an Amish farm.

I live in a gated lake community, in a woodsy area, in Pensilvania. I was laying in bed, looking up at my skylight around 11pm but I am not 100% sure of the time. I saw one bright star. I thought maybe it was a planet because it was brighter than most stars. Then I saw it moving around slowly in an irregular way; nothing like a plane or a helicopter. It seemed far away. It stayed in the field of vision through my skylight even though it moved and darted a lot. It started darting around and then hovering like an insect or a humming bird. I started recording it with my phone. I recorded about 6 minutes of it, zooming in then out. I should have let the edges of the skylight show for context but I did not. It seemed to be circular/disk like object. Sometimes, it moved a lot, then it would stop. I tried to watch it until it went away but after about 30 minutes I fell asleep. I posted my video on the Facebook page for my housing community and two others, so far, said they also saw it. People that I show the video to seem fairly compelled by it. I can not answer the question of “did you lose time”, because I fell asleep before it went away. I don’t know if it made a sound because I was inside watching it and my air conditioner is noisy and was running. I regret not going outside. I have a pitting lesion, on my leg that looks like a cigar burn but I can’t honestly say that I’m positive it wasn’t there before. I hadn’t noticed it though. It looks like an old pit scar. Again, I can’t truly say that I know it’s related. I submitted the videos. Thank you for your time.

The best way to describe it would be like a strobe light but brighter, white light. I noticed a plane not far from it and recognized the significant size and brightness compared to the aircraft's lights. But I have no way to discern how high up the bright flash was in comparison to the plane.

At sunset, I immediately noticed that a small glob of clouds had gathered. (Cirrus). Less than a minute later, they are cube shaped small craft loosely locking amid each other's gravitational field or training indicative of terrestrial military. Loosely resembling a 3 1 3 Tetris shape. Then every few seconds it stretched and the cubes multiplied until 43 total craft that made up the body of the larger craft. It began to accelerate, no com trail or visual exhaust plume. It had the movement of a train and was a wonderful blue hue. Hence the name polar express. After it's departure we had at least 100 separate smaller sightings, they were closer...some passed over head no more than 20 feet above us. Black glibe "searchers", wibbly wobbly drunk e.t craft. There were at least 25 of these, with 1 being more innovative and "serious" looking and acting in it's movement. Light shows, full horizon color change, spot lights and even collision. But no noise, or wing was ever attributed to these craft.

Since January, we have been seeing these and recently they have been increasing in the numbers and nights that they are seen. They can start bright and then dim...or they can disappear altogether. They are small and round and vary from yellow, white, red, and blue...they move across the sky and veer, never staying on a straight course. It varies in speed and height. They make no sound and they will slowly disappear into the sky. There can be multiple lights and multiple times that they will be seen. We don't think that they are satellites and they are not planes.
