Southhampton, NY
On September 5th, 9:54 p.m., in Southhampton New York, near Shinnecock Bay, seven of us spotted two unidentified flying objects, one shortly after the other, each a perfect circle, one orange the other white flying south to north. They did not make any sound and only emitted light in the shape of the saucer, namely a circle. They flew separately, the white one before the orange one. The white one appeared further away or smaller than the orange one. They were within our line of site for less than a minute and moved at a steady pace. We’re writing this report in part because of the excellent documentary The Phenomenon, which suggests that aliens have had and might continue to have power over major nuclear power sites.

On September 4, 2020 I saw what looked like a star that was still visible in the morning sky. I was taking my morning walk with my husband and decided to take a photo of the star. It was very bright and almost twinkling. As I pulled out my phone the light began to dim like it knew I was photographing it. It began to move so I crossed the street and snapped a few more photos. It quickly seemed to rise in elevation and then disappeared. I have 3 photos from 6:26 AM to 6:29 AM, the 6:26 photo shows it as a star, but the next two I zoomed a little more and definitely notice that it was a drone, or some type of high tech machine. I live directly across the street from Scotia Air Force Training Base, I see the solders all of the time, so one day I asked them if they used drones to surveil the base and I was told by the guard, no drones here. I have seen these star like objects over my home area many many times. I would love to know who or what is hanging out over my air space. I will try to attach the photos. Please use your technology to zoom in and you will see that it is not a star at all. Thank you for taking the time to read and review this.

I was observing the NE sky and observed a bright object appear that was clearly not part of the Big Dipper, Little Dipper and Draco constellations. Not to mention it was too early to start seeing any of those stars. The object was as bright as Venus would be at that time of day, but it was moving in a south westerly direction. The movements of the object were slightly erratic and it appeared to speed up and slow down. After watching this object for a couple minutes, I concluded it was not a plant, star, or satellite, so I hastily set up my Celestron telescope and was able to view the object for about 10 seconds before it disappeared. The object had an orange hue, was roughly cigar shaped and one end darker than the other. The interesting part is that there was another, much smaller object moving with the main object. The smaller object was circular in shape and had the same orange hue. Here is the interesting part... The objects were connected. I could see w! hat appeared to be a rigid rod connecting the two objects, the smaller object was definitely tethered to the larger object. The rod shaped object had the same orange hue. How they moved together is what blew my mind. The larger object controlled the smaller object in a manner much like a person would do if they were walking and playing with a yo-yo at the same time. Specifically, the smaller object appeared to swing forward and alongside the larger object, in an arc, until it was in front. As soon as the smaller object reached the front, it would start swinging backward, following the same arc until it was behind the larger object. As soon as it reached the back, it would swing back forward. Another way to illustrate this motion is that it was like how pendulum swings relative to the clock face on a grandfather clock, but with an arc of 180 degrees instead of 20 or 30 degrees. I watched this cycle for several iterations before it disappeared. I wish I had a camera connecte! d to my telescope because this would have been amazing footage! . This w as definitely NOT the SpaceX satellite train. I am an experienced star gazer/amateur astronomer.

Rochester, NY
Clear day, early morning, noticed a strange occurrence outside 4th floor apartment window. Two objects, at a fairly high altitude, were moving horizontally across the sky, zig-zagging between other and disappearing and reappearing suddenly. They appeared as lights or orbs, with perhaps some iridescence, and moved quickly across the sky and out of our sight line. There was no noise and the movements were quick and light, not like any drones or similar technology witnessed before. The second witness ran downstairs to identify the objects closer, at first they only saw one object. It seemed to appear and disappear, and it started going towards a newly visible second object, then both sort of faded off into the same direction, and disappeared from sight. They had remained in the sky for several minutes before fading off as well.

Was on my deck, watching tv. My wife came upstairs and said there's something strange in the sky. Upon looking at the area where she directed me, I saw what appeared to be a cloud with a spotlight hitting it. However, there were no clouds in the sky, and the object was slowly moving north-south. It stayed in what seemed to be a straight line. More details about the object in question: There appeared to be a small, hazy light in the center with a cloud-like ring surrounding it. The ring was vertical in the sky. Seemed to be slightly luminescent, although the moon was bright and may have been reflecting against it. As we watched, a faint, second ring seemed to form around it. We watched it until it went behind some trees and we could no longer see it.

I had just finished dropping off a key at my parent's house and was walking back to the apartment my husband and I share. The moon was starting to peek through the trees from the south, and I gazed up at the stars, noticing that it was a clear night. I looked north north-east and saw a fuzzy point above the trees and initially thought it was a small plane, but there was no sound, and no blinking lights. I watched it slowly move south, and as it moved it appeared to develop halos - at first they appeared to be moving in a very slight counter-clockwise rotation. Never complete, but fading imperceptibly so as to never show a full spiral halo. It was at this point that I tried to grab a photo using my cell phone, knowing that it would likely not turn out. I grabbed 2 shots. I found it odd that the halo was building and that it was still moving south without noise or distinct airplane lights. I ran to tell my husband and a friend of his who were already outside on our deck. They both looked out and by this time it had grown even more. We ran down the steps to get a better vantage point. I had grabbed my DSLR (Nikon D200) with my Nikkor AF-S 70-300 mm lens to see if I could get some long exposure images on the fly. As soon as we were in the driveway I tried a long exposure shot. Moved to what I thought was a more stable place and grabbed a second shot. The third was the last attempt as by this time it had begun to move behind the tree line. Of these three long exposure shots the first turned out the best. The halo had grown quite a bit from start to finish. When it started it was a small, white/yellow fuzzy spot, before it went out of view it had a fuzzy center and a few vertical mostly-complete halos . I am a website admin / project manager with a degree in environmental biology and have several hobbies, one being stargazing with some astrophotography using my 8-inch Dobsonian telescope. I have seen Venus, Jupiter and its moons, the recent NEOWISE comet, the moon in detail and various meteor showers. I've tracked planes with my telescope (sadly did not have the time to pull it out to see this thing), the ISS, and other satellites. I'm familiar with the normal aircraft that are typically flying in the area as well. This was unlike anything I've seen in the sky thus far.

Fast moving fireball very low in sky, no sound, no crash. Headed south towards Atlantic Ocean. It looked like it could be a meteor, or shooting star, but was large and was so low it would have made a large explosion if it hit earth. It had a fire tail streaking after it.

I was at Sutton Place Park, east 58th street, when I looked up in the sky and observed a phenomenon unlike anything I am familiar with. The UFOs were moving fast in an elongated oval shape and were shaped roughly like Xs. There were approximately 8-12 crafts moving at a fast speed in a cyclic nature. They were light with fuzzy edges.

It was Sunday night around. 8 pm I went to my yard like I do every night with my binoculars and laser pointer to look at stars and see if I spot anything odd. I began the CE5 Protocols by Dr Steven Greer and meditation after about a hour and a half I began to notice this white orb infront of the clouds tomato of the sky was gray clouds so I could see this orb very good then 2 more disc shape craft flew in together and stopped directly over me after a few moments another orb came out from behind the top craft now there are 4 craft 2 orbs and 2 discs I was very nervous my wife couldn’t believe what we were seeing she got so nervous she went inside I stood outside and I was hitting the craft with my laser pointer these craft must have been a good 50+ feet across they made absolutely no sound when they moved they were silent. I honestly think they were trying to blend in with the clouds but it was if they had a dim white light on in the craft making them a littl! e brighter then the clouds. After about 40 min they began to go back the same way they came in but the only difference was when they flew off they were sideways like bottom of craft to the side they left on weird after 20-30 seconds they were out of sight. It was very very scary to see but I was completely in awe this wasn’t my 1 st encounter but I will say this the cE5 protocols seem to work.

Astoria, NY
At approx 1400 (2pm) I witnessed one craft moving very slowly high in the sky (I'm guessing higher than 30,000 feet) looking northward at about an 80 degree angle from Astoria, Queens, NYC. The object moved very slowly to the west and was intermittently obscured by clouds. It seemed to glow with changing intensity. I was able to take video of the event and point it out to several passersby while observing it. When I reviewed the video, I noticed a second craft to the right of the one I had been observing and had missed while watching initially. I've submitted screen shots of the video to this site. I'll be submitting the video once I can clip it and make it shorter for email submission.

First I want you to know I am an alien skeptic. I have an open mind but I'm only going to believe what I see and experience myself. I make no claims these were alien objects. I would classify them as unexplained moving lights in the night sky. Because I'm in an urban area with houses and trees all around the horizon and I only have a cheap compass my orientation may be slightly off. On Saturday, August 22, 2020, at 9PM EST I went out to see if I could view comet Neowise. I had been trying to find it all summer without luck. I'm in a urban area with a lot of light pollution and the comet is faint so I never had any success. At 10PM EST I went out again. By this time it was fully dark and there were large white puffy clouds moving swiftly from WNW but the space between the clouds was * crystal clear * and I could easily see stationary stars. Suddenly I noticed a fast moving "star" traveling from WSW coming from behind clouds. It was white and as bright as Venus. At first I thought it might be the International Space Station as it was moving at a constant speed high behind the clouds but since it was moving slower I discounted it as the ISS. I watched it travel in a straight line moving from WSW to North at a constant speed disappearing and reappearing between breaks in the clouds. When it passed the Big Dipper, two more bright white moving "stars" came into view between the clouds. One heading WNW and one heading West. They were dimmer than the first moving "star" and moving at about the same rate of speed but slower (I assume because they were farther away). Unfortunately the white puffy clouds were increasing so the moving "stars" were difficult to track as they disappeared behind the fast moving puffy-white clouds. As the clouds were increasing I began to look for spaces between clouds and I looked almost directly up and saw another very bright moving "star" heading WSW. It was white and as bright as the first moving "star" but the clouds were increasing and it disappeared behind the clouds . I eventually lost track of the first moving "star" behind the ever increasing cloud-cover as it traveled North. The moving "stars" weren't an illusion caused by the moving clouds. I could clearly see fixed, stationary stars and the moving "stars". The entire incident lasted less than 5 minutes. I'm about 5 miles from an airport to the North and during this same period of time I could see two low flying planes approaching the airport in front of the clouds (lower than the clouds). The moving white "stars" were not planes. The planes were easy to identify because they have red, green, and white blinking landing lights and moved like planes I see all the time. I also had another incident on the last Saturday of May. It was 10PM EST and I went out to toss some trash. It was a clear night. Whenever I go outside at night I always take a moment to look at the night sky; seeing which constellations are visible. As I said, I live in an urban area with lots of light pollution and there are houses and trees that block my view so I'm limited by what I can see; usually only the Big Dipper and Orion depending on the time of year. On a good clear night if I look out a second floor window I can see the Pleiades. Mars, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn are easy to locate. As I turned to the house to go inside, I was standing in the driveway looking SE. About 45-50 degrees above the horizon I saw a redish-orange "star". At first I thought it might be Mars which is fairly common and easy to see. However it just didn't look exactly like Mars. My next thought was it might be a candle sky lantern someone released so I stood still to see if it would drift. It didn't. It was stationary. Then, without notice, this redish-orange "star" shot directly away from me and in less than a second disappeared. After these two sighting I have gone outside when the night sky is clear but I haven't seen anything since. Best regards

Orange orb of light floated through my backyard, within 10-15 feet of me. It was basketball-sized & bioluminescent, like a jellyfish. Within the sphere (whose size remained constant, there was another circle that would shift, expanding and contracting. like the pupil of an eye. it seemed to be looking around, and it looked at me. i managed to grab my ipad to film, but as soon as i started moving, it zipped up over my neighbors roof & hovered there. Before that, it had been drifting, slowly, so I lowered the camera for a moment to see if it would come back. It didn't, but as soon as i snapped the camera but up, it zips off to the left. The clip is here https://youtu.be/_5Oeauv_xC0 Sorry i didn't get a video while it was closer. I was in shock for a few moments, but nothing supernaturally induced or anything like that. I've just never seen anything like it.

An Object was spotted travelling to the North on August 15, 2020 at dusk over Clay, NY. Object traveled in a straight line at consistent speed and made no sound. Altitude was in the range of 300-500 feet. It was a dark object on top and what looked like a flame a foot or two underneath. As the object approached our limit to see it, the flame disappeared but the object continued in the same northerly direction. Our best guess was it was a balloon or a lantern; However, since it traveled a consistent speed at a different direction than the wind and continued its trajectory after the flame disappeared, I thought it warranted a report. We did capture video of the object with a cell phone, but the quality is not great.

I live in the Harlem area of Manhattan. My apartment has a roof deck from where I observed two unknown objects. While exercising there, I spotted the first dark circle moving with a steady velocity from the northeast to southeast. At first, I thought it was a balloon but quickly ruled this out as the object was perfectly spherical and moving too quickly in a straight line. It was too high to be a drone. At one point while directly overhead, it reflected sunlight and I could make out a metallic surface. My location is near La Guardia airport, but this craft was not observing any common flightpath. The object eventually faded from view as it proceed southwest. I observed a second craft approximately 15 minutes later, also dark and spherical, flying a similar path but more westward. The velocity and elevation appeared similar to the first craft. Neither craft displayed erratic movements. There were no lights / signals. In, fact, what was most strange was the ut! ter lack of any surface markings / characteristics.

I had bad depth perception that day, at least 5 miles away. 5 white lights in a triangular shape. Moving faster than an airplane flying somewhat close by . I went to grab a camera and it disappeared and left a blue streak.
