It was a very clear day. I was working in the garden. I looked up and noticed a bright, shiny paramecium shape object streaking across the sky from N to S across the airspace West of town. I tried to view it as a bird but it was higher than bird flight. It appears to have no wings but may have had some thin structures like pipes, at front and back of the flat cylinder like shape. I tried to view it as a plane at high altitude but it was about 10 times faster than a high plane. I took several steps out from the shade of a tree and the object came to an immediate and complete stop for about 1 second. From an extremely high rate of speed South to a complete stop. It then changed direction 120 degrees back and up. Within about 3 seconds it was out of sight completely. It appeared to go nearly straight upward, away from the earth. The movements of this object were not normal and definitely would fit a UFO report. It reminded me of the military jet object that met the unexplained or impossible movements causing it to be judged a legit UFO report. Nothing other happened and with quite a bit of looking up, I saw nothing of it or anything other.

It was about 4:45 am when I saw this object with two white lights just staying perfectly still in the sky above the bay around 2500 feet above sea level. Could not make out the shape, i continued to watch it for about 30 minutes not moving just hovering. Then about 5:30 am when it started to get light out, the object began horizontally ascending away from its point of origin into the sky and disappeared. All this happened within 5 to 10 seconds, there were no planes in the area. The area is not a commercial or small plane fly zone.

Looking up at the sky one late night I saw a hovering, glowing, orangish yellow orb. At first I thought it was a meteor. But it was not falling. It slowly descended from sky closer and closer. It appeared to sparkle and glow and as it was getting closer I was mesmerized by how bright and huge it had to be for me to see it so detailed. I started to get a scared feeling. And when I did it stopped moving. It stayed in one place and I felt, watched me. I for a moment thought well this must be the end of the world. It’s gonna smash into us and blow us up. I ran inside w my son. Who was also watching and became afraid. But I was also very curious. I went back out and snapped a couple videos. Then it slowly started moving away to my right of my horizon. And then was gone. I have never seen anything like this object in movies or television nor books or magazines. There was no sound. But a very strong PRESENCE. I decided it has to be some kind of orb or ufo. But I obviously have found no proof of that. It would be interesting to see if anyone else in my area caught and footage of this incident. I did post it on Facebook. There are 2 videos. The erratic movement is me, my son grabbing my arm and wiggling it around and quickly going back inside my house and recording from the doorstep of my back porch. The photo is a close up screen shot of the sighting.

Wisconsin Dells, WI
Driving on highway 39 from Chicago to central Wisconsin. Right near Wisconsin Dells there was a very very bright flash in sky. The light then traveled across sky at super high rate of speed and disappeared. The sky was a bit overcast. Can't logically think what this could have been. Gave me the shivers.

I observed a strange vehicle flying around 1000-2000 feet. It flew away from me towards the northeast, but the lights it flashed pointed towards me. The lights resembled car headlights flashing its high beams. I have it on video, why would its lights flash at me, if it were flying away?

Franklin, OH
I saw a red glowing light, which I thought was a missile of some kind. It was flying rapidly from the direction of Germantown, Ohio in a Southeast direction toward Cincinnati, Ohio. It stopped at a certain point and stayed there. I ran in to notify a facebook friend to try and get a witness, but it was gone when I ran back out. I’m living in the most Western part of Franklin, Ohio, in Franklin Township. That’s all I know except that it was all red and not travelling in a perfectly straight line, but first straight, then it turned Westward and came to a stop. It was there and stopped for about 30 seconds before I thought to get a witness.

Red Lion, PA
I was driving home from a friend's house around 11:45pm on 7/9/2022 and noticed an incredibly bright red light high in the sky as I was driving, heading towards the town of Red Lion on Felton Road. I thought it was oddly bright and must be a new cell tower light until I kept driving for about another minute and realized I was about to drive under it. It was definitely a light in the sky, heading south. It had no definite shape either, somewhat amorphous and slightly shifting as it moved. No accompanying flashing lights or strobes. It was pinkish in the center and a deep red on the edges. It was very high from what I could tell, so I have no description of a craft for you. I figured I should pull over and take a video as I had now passed the light ever so slightly and pulled into the Rick's Ace Hardware at the intersection of the Winterstown road and Felton road. As I pulled in the light faded and vanished from view. I did not see it return so I left and continued on my way home. The weather was very humid, light fog and lingering high clouds from rain earlier in the day. The moon was visible but mostly obscured by cloud cover.

Around 10:45 pm there was a bright ball of light moving extremely fast from the west to the east over Lake Michigan. This ball of light appears to be brighter and move faster than any satellite I've seen or the space station.

I and my friend were returning home and saw 3 red orange circle spheres come from east traveling north. They made no sound at all and seemed to travel in a V formation then formed into a single line and at first moving slowly. Then they increased speed as they formed this formation and then ascend straight up until they disappeared. No sound no sonic boom! We then witnessed two more of they had the exact shape follow the three that went straight up the two others followed immediately at a high rate of speed again with no sound or sonic boom!

I was cleaning pool with metal pole and attached brush, this requires to reach up and push downwards, as I reached up saw a craft less than 1,000 ft with circular lights. Within seconds it descended and was entering our air space into back yard and over pool. At that moment ran to rear door screamed at family to come out, wife did, we stood along pool deck with craft no further than 20 feet from us. it floated over pool at 30 feet altitude. My wife kept repeating oh my god with no religious meaning but of disbelief. It angled forward at 45 dregrees and we could see interior but no occupants. As it angled i noticed that pool lights were not lighting upper read section but that light seemed to come through it's skin. bottom was concave circular with 2 rectangular devices side by side in center of concave

I was pointing out some constellation formations appearing on the horizon...it was getting dark enough to see only the major constellations like the big dipper and the North star...my eye caught some movement and I looked up, towards the northern sky saw an object that my brain asked...(and which I said aloud...which is weird, because I have grown up around Ohare Airport and all of the planes and I know they blink red and white lights in the night) "Is that an airplane?!" Followed by "Is that an airplane on fire!?!" As I realized its motion looked like a distant plane travelling through the sky…headed to the West, but it looked like it was on fire and burning. So the two other people with me looked and saw it for a minute or more and then it disappeared behind our locust tree in the front yard, but I got up and and walked over to where I could catch it still on its trajectory and it wasn't there. We assume that it had burnt out…or disappeared…but we weren't in a position to see if it just slowly burnt out and fizzled or if it just vanished into thin air.

Black donut shaped craft gliding from the South heading North. Seemed to shift, sometimes gliding flat like a frisbee then go perpendicular like a rolling donut. Altitude seemed high, many many feet above tree-line.

Queen Creek, AZ
Driving southbound on Hawes Rd through Queen Creek, AZ at night, I observed what appeared to be an oblate spheroid shaped object. As I crossed the Chandler Heights Rd intersection, the street lamps were non-existent. This dark road and sky made sighting this jump out at my attention in the upper right of my windshield, as it was moving very fast. The color was a vibrant emerald green color with an aura of yellow around it. I thought i might be fireworks, but then it arched downward for a brief moment (as if dropping altitude) then leveled out and accelerated very rapidly in a straight horizontal line from east to west across the valley floor. I estimate it was downrange from my car as close as 3-miles away at an altitude of 500 feet which is well below the height of the San Tan Mountains (3,104 FT). It was accelerating much faster than any light aircraft or helicopter that is common to see in this area. The weather was windy with lots down drafting wind currents from a lines of thunderstorms in the area. It was dusty and gusty to 40 kTS which obscured the moonlight, so this was really bad weather for a private pilot to fly in with a light aircraft from nearby Pegasus-Queen Creek Airpark. I was driving at the time with my phone plugged into my armrest on Apple Car Play, so I didn't have enough time to grab my phone for snaps.

Using binoculars and witnessing this "bubble" "cloud" in the sky going south of my position at home. It is stationary in the sky as clouds move under it.

It appears to be two crafts. The smaller one has 5 lights orbiting around it and the long one looks like two faded lights went straight up above it in the clouds. This shot was taken out of a sunroof in a Toyota 4runner, while the car was running. It could be a reflection off the steering wheel of the Toyota emblem and the door handle, but I thought I should send it in for your review.

The primary witness and his wife were in a boat on their lake. Their 9 year old son had fallen from his ski close to the shore, and as they were picking up the ski they had to stop the boat. The witness looked up in the clear blue sky to the right over the tree line and saw a white round object traveling from right to left (E-W) at a high rate of speed. The object was traveling faster than anything he had ever seen and couldn't have been visible over a minute or two. It travelled the entire length of the sky and then disappeared. They had seen airplanes in the sky prior to and just after this incident, but nothing was travelling anywhere near the speed this was. He had pointed to the object in the air and his son said that he saw the same thing. As his wife looked up she HAD also saw the object as well. The object probably had been at about 10,000' and about a mile out. 1-2 mins

At first the circular shaped object or craft was traveling erratically darting side to side at an extremely high rate of speed . Then it slowed down a bit and almost Seemed to “falling” directly down to earth. It then suddenly started fading so it was barely noticeable then it simply vanished. There were no clouds in the sky and it Was broad daylight. It was difficult to tell the size of the craft and difficult to tell it was spherical or round and flat . It was a bright white color and could have been metallic. I am a trained law enforcement officer who is presently retired so my account is credible.

Was standing out back and a small black object caught my eye. I grabbed my phone and aimed it up towards the object but was hard to see in the sun. I followed the object traveling from right to left in the sky and then while reviewing it later noticed another black object shooting from behind a tree line at an incredible rate of speed going from bottom left to upper right. When I slowed it down and looked frame by frame I could see the second object appear to change shape and in one frame I can clearly see what looks like an oblong shape that has a single wing through it. You can see both objects in the same shot on the zoomed in frame included. No sounds were heard by either object.

My brother and his wife, in early July were sitting in their home (most likely on a Saturday as they drive down from their winter home in Sudbury, MA to their vacation house in the wee hours of Saturdays and usually leave early on Sunday, unless they do an extended stay). My brother was downstairs on the couch abutting the northern side of the home, while his wife was upstairs. Suddenly the house went dark (as if a thunderstorm was rolling through - their words). At the same time all sound disappeared, which they described as very peculiar. It lasted for only a brief time. They both ran to the windows (sliding glass door downstairs facing south, and north or south facing windows upstairs). They told me the sky was completely clear with no storms in sight, which baffled them. The date is a guess. They told me it was early July. I deduced Saturday based on their habit of visiting their summer home on the weekends, as mentioned. I refrained from posting this event until new reports that covered July had come in, as I was curious if anyone else had a similar experience in their area in the same time frame. I then saw the retired law officer's report that was also in North Falmouth. Please do not post the name of the street they live on in N. Falmouth for privacy

Grenada, MS
Saw a small round object (silver in color maybe) floating in a way that I’ve never seen, I’ve seen many planes and this was not a plane, satellite, or drone. This moved upwards fast but also slow enough to watch it go by as I tried to record it (but it was so tiny that far up and my phone doesn’t take good videos at night) as it went up it took a sharp curve to the backside of my house towards the west and I watched it as it went by until it disappeared then one minute later as if it just went through a hole or something it came back out and started moving in the opposite direction and back around to the other side of the sky and the disappeared. Not sure if it was the same one or a second one but they looked alike. It was amazing looking and it wasn’t like anything I’ve ever seen before and I come outside in this same spot every night and watch the sky. I am sober and sane by the way. 33.78143° N, 89.76332° W

I had been having trouble falling asleep, so I laid down and looked out my west facing window. I had been still for just a second when I saw a very bright white light in the shape of a sphere moving at a fast speed traveling north across the sky outside my window. I noticed a slight trail effect behind it as well. I did not hear any noise and lost sight of it behind a neighbor’s tree/house. It happened in an area near a large international airport, though I’m familiar with the area and would recognize a standard passenger aircraft. To double check, I opened my flight tracker just seconds after the sighting to confirm what I had just seen. As I found no planes moving that direction in the area, I concluded it wasn’t one. I opened my other app “stellarium” just to make sure it couldn’t have been a satellite. Knowing that I have never see a satellite at my location due to light pollution, I knew it wasn’t one but still checked. Again, I found no evidence to disprove what I saw.
