It moved almost like lights were attached to the end of a helicopters wings but wayyyy to high in the sky and fast to possibly be a helicopter plus it was silent. I thought it was really really cool

Dayton, MN
I was driving in a neighborhood of Dayton MN, delivering papers when I saw what looked like a shooting star. I looked back at it again once I realized it was still traveling in the sky a moment later, and it was flashing bright blue pulses of light and produced a visible bright white/blue line along its path of travel. It lasted for about 2-3 seconds, and partially lit up the sky and illuminating the cloud cover as it disappeared behind some rain clouds.

So last night, about 3am I was sitting up in bed, looking out the window...and I saw a weird white bar of light with a faint blue aura that made four intermittent flashes as it decreased in altitude with each flash - but staying horizontal as it moved across my field of sight. As best I could tell it was three or four hundred feet from my house, across the street in the woods. The white bar of light was probably about 8-10 feet long. We were having a lot of heat lightning, but it was not raining and this was definitely not lightning. It was a white bar of light that flashed, then disappeared and when I would see it again, the bar of light was a little lower and more to the right, It did this four times that I could see. It was very quick...the four flashes happened like: light, light, light, light (the entire episode lasting 6 to 8 seconds in total I would guess). I continued watching in the region where it looked as if it was headed to for about half an hour, and I saw many slender white streaks of light shining up into the sky. This was not lightning...the streaks were more like one of those beams they would put infront of movie premiers long ago...but the streams of light were much thinner. I doubt anyone was flying a drone during a lightning and thundering storm...and through the woods? Not above the woods...THROUGH the woods. At 3 o'clock in the morning! Weird. Thoughts? Have you ever seen anything like this?

Old Fort, TN
Went outside on my front porch to get some peace and quiet away from family. I looked up facing East @ 110°. Made eye contact with what looked like a star that was moving at the same rate of the ISS or LEO satellite. (Approx 15,000 MPH). That’s what I assumed it was, especially with the sun setting in the west refracting light that could make it visible at night time. Suddenly it stopped. It started to pinball/bounce 5-10 times the speed it was traveling before stopping in a triangle like pattern. 1,2,3, and it zoomed off towards the Southwest in an extremely fast fashion. I had to ask myself if I had just witnessed that, and I know I did for a fact. I have listened to many accounts from the Navy Pilots and any credible persons explaining this kind of event. They are dead on at how fast they move and change direction. It was the first UAP/UFO I have ever witnessed. However, I was observing this one from the ground, watching it far above earth’s atmosphere. I was startled, I wasn’t shocked. I was more in a reality check on asking myself if I actually just seen that. I know I did. I honestly just smiled, because it felt like affirmation of knowing the truth from people’s factual and witness accounts such as the Navy Pilots. The picture I took was a handful of seconds after my account to document the approximate size area in the sky this “craft” had stopped, maneuvered, and disappeared.

Long Beach, CA
We saw a shimmering fireball in the sky making a diagonal motion. It looked like it was on fire. Then it hovered in one spot, perfectly still, for 30 to 40 seconds without moving, but it was still flashing as if it was on fire. Then it dropped straight down toward the ground, and the light went out and then flickered back for a minute while it was still falling and then went completely out. It was shaped like a diamond or like an hourglass. It looked large compared to planes we usually see in the sky. It was flashing a yellow-orange color, like fire. But if it was an aircraft on fire, it could not have paused and hovered in the sky for that long. It was completely silent. It was against a dark night sky with only a few stars.

I was recording the lightning and captured something moments before the strike. A red light zoomed in my shot and got sucked into a part of the sky. When I zoomed into the part it went into, it resembled an opening or a crack of light. Not the lightning. The lightning struck moments after. Unrelated to lightning strike. Only noticed this while slow motion viewing my storm sighting. Red light shoots into a crack into the sky. I have attached the screen recording of the video with slow motion and zoom created

I noticed an object in a video I was recording during a storm. I had to zoom in and replay on “pause” setting many times to capture the speed. A red light appeared to have been flying and maximum speed towards an area in the sky that revealed a slight crack in the color of white/yellow. I have sent this report over the weekend but I will attach a better version of the replay here

Object comes into view flying super low around the trees. The white object moves erratically while changing shape and colors. In this recording, I am looking south but the object is moving east to west. There was only 1 object and I was the only person outside to catch it. [NUFORC annotation: Aircraft - Possible]

As a believer in extraterrestrial life, I always find myself looking up at the stars. I’ve seen foreign objects a couple of times during my life and always swore if I saw something out of the normal again, I’d film. On May 31st, 2022 at 10:06pm, I left my boyfriend’s house to head home. He lives in the upper unit and behind the house is a back upper deck with stairs. You can exit the house from the back upper deck and down the stairs. I looked up at the night sky to admire the stars and the moon. I saw the most abnormal moving type of shape. It looked like a spinning top you put on a counter that spins. The most odd part, it was defying the laws of gravity moving up, down, left, right, and in circles. I find it difficult to describe the direction it was moving as I’d never seen an object move like that. I’ve seen the International Space Station and satellites, moving in the night sky before. The object was moving so sporadically it most likely couldn’t be one. I took out my IPhone and decided to start filming. The object changed in direction, shape, and color. I went through the film looking at each shot. It rotates all over the places and then hovers. There also appears to be an unexplainable ring of light around the object. I believe this is empirical evidence to help support the database. During my free time, I am a paranormal investigator and go to different locations to explore with equipment. My opinion may be bias but the footage shows otherwise. I would have uploaded the evidence sooner expect I forgot when I filmed the video and couldn’t locate it in my library. It has probably taken over ten hours for me to locate this video. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to speak.

A very very bright Venus like object in the northern sky. It was a beautiful and warm night and the sky was clear and we were looking at the big dipper and I was showing my wife and friends on one of my star apps where the north star was located As we all looked at the north star suddenly a very bright star like light appeared. It was stationary for approximately one minute and then disappeared. Not a plane! not a planet or star!

I saw this on my security monitor and took the 3 pictures. I'd like to know what it is cause it's not the moon.

Spotted triangle over the trees of Prado Golf Course. Triangle initially was tilted and then positioned flat over my vehicle. Dark smooth bottom with 3 lights under each corner. Lights were not bright. The triangle did not have sharp edges and it had some type of chrome light reflecting trim all around, but the rest was a very dark material. It was very slow and made absolute no noise. It glided away towards the dark area over the trees surrounding Prado Golf Course.

We had been out in the gulf for dolphin tour and on the way back to port at dusk I noticed a brightly seemingly perfect triangle to the west. First thought was it was an opening in the clouds but it was extremely bright compared to the surrounding area and seemed clearly in front of a uniform cloud that was blocking the sun, the edges were well defined and equilateral my second though was portal. It just looked very unnatural and suspiciously geometric. I pointed it out to my family and other on the boat and all agreed it looked strange. It didn’t move at all and was visible until the landscape blocked the view as we headed further inland. Photo was taken with an iPhone. It just looked very peculiar and unnatural. In reviewing my photos just as a write this a year later I am just now noticing an a strange anomaly in a photo taken 15 minutes after the original triangle. Totally different in appearance but disturbing to notice a year after the fact. The second object is circled in blue.

Hello, I was driving home late last night. Everything was normal until I saw a giant flash of pink light in the sky. It only lasted for less than a second. My first thought was that it was some kind of explosion so I immediately turned off the radio but did not hear anything. When I got home I asked my mother if she heard anything since the windows were open, she said she didn't hear anything. I cannot make sense of what it was, the sky was clear so it couldn't of been lightening. Since I did not hear anything and my mother a few minutes away from me did not hear anything, I don't think this was an explosion of some sort. There could very well be a natural explanation for this, it could have been a meteor burning up in the atmosphere or a piece of debris. I just find it odd that there was not a noise. Since I was driving and it occurred very fast, I do not have a photo or video of the flash of light.

I spent 20-30 minutes watching this thing this morning. It caught my eye because it was high up, but not moving across the sky like a plane. In fact, I saw a few other planes in the sky and it confirmed that this was nothing like those. Flashing lights, but it didn't move. I've included a video and have more, if you are interested. I took a screenshot of the image, which I included. Definitely checking back tomorrow morning.

My roommate and I were waiting to see a possible meteor shower. About 2am we saw a lightning bug color green object that made no sound zip past us about 1000 ft above us traveling north east. It was faster than a plane or helicopter but not too fast that we couldn't keep up with it. It wasn't blinking. Just a solid color green like a lightning bug color green. We are about 10 min from military base.

I saw green flashing light. No red flahing lights with the green like a normal aircraft. It also was the only light on the craft. When it got overhead it appear to be almost like a rocket-shaped silhouette. It was traveling east made.a 90° turn to the north followed the top of the ridge behind my house for around .2 miles and disappeared. It was silent. It was also about 5 to 600 feet agl. It was definitely not a drone. I am a certified commercial drone pilot so i can easily rule that out.

Driving north on Haun road home and it is an unlit area (by the horse farm). I was driving and i saw a very fast moving orange/red triangle shaped object. I followed it from the driver side window to the front windshield and it flat out just disappeared. There were no clouds in the sky, which I confirmed with the weather center. Literally vanished. Never have I ever seen anything like this or have reported anything of same.

We were outside viewing the meteor event that night (note: it definitely was NOT a meteor or related phenomenon) and was 100% after 10pm, and before 10:30pm. Approx. 10:15pm Three triangles (either three objects in formation, or a singular object with three triangles at the ends best described similar to “the triforce” symbol) travelled from the south to north ward direction. There was no noise, no lights, and travelled a consistent but extremely fast speed across the sky. I would call the triangles a dark gray, while my daughter said she thought they were black.
