Pinetop, AZ
The objects were traveling along the same flight path in a steady stream for an hour, it was very dark outside, no moonlight, only bright stars. They were traveling at a higher speed than a commercial jet, with no sound at all. They looked to be about the same altitude as commercial flights we have seen along that same flight path, they were all bright white in color, similar to the stars around them. The event was amazing to observe "Starlink" satellites? PD

Bouse, AZ
I just happen to step outside this morning and was looking at the big dipper, when I saw what looked like stars lined up and different distances from each other usually about 6 to 8 in a row moving in a straight line from west to east, there was no sound or contrail observed. They came in groups and would look back and here came another group on the same path and all in a row, what I saw took place in a period of about two minutes, there may have been more earlier but it ended, after it got daylight I observed no contrails, I a 82 years old and have never seen anything like this in my life please feel free to contact me on phone number of 406-249-5292 or p.o. box 820 in Bouse Arizona 85325, as for shape they looked like a normal star but were moving at the same speed as the distance between them did not change.

Fort McDowell looking toward Phoenix, AZ
While looking toward Phoenix, there were some orange, glowing balls of light. There would be 1-4 that would fade in and out, but did not change locations. They hovered while the lights flicker in and out. You could see planes flying by and compare how different the lights were and how much larger the orange lights were. They did not fall like a flare would or move like a plane. This is not the first time we have seen these types of lights in Arizona.

Glendale, AZ
My sister and I were in our backyard watching the stars and also waiting for the meteor shower. I was telling her a story when all of a sudden we seen 3 lights appearing and I was looked I think I see some but then more lights appeared forming a “V” shape object. It began moving fast and then disappeared, I've never seen anything like it and I am shocked.

It was a bove the clouds it just appeared moved towards the east a disappears moved very fast with no sound. Only visible for 10 seconds or so.

Bullhead City, AZ
On 11/14/19 at approximately 2104 hours PST (2204 MST Bullhead City AZ) I observed three (3) unknown type craft(s) moving at an intense speed over Laughlin, NV, in a south, southewest direction. OBSERVATION: While I was sitting in my vehicle parked in a open lot in Bullhead City, AZ at coordinates N 35°10.070' W 114°33.808' at elevation: 527 Feet per my Garmin GPS, I suddenly observed approx three (3) unknown type aerial vehicle/craft(s) moving at an intense speed, over Laughlin, NV, and appeared to be just above Laughlin area Casino(s), from my vantage point in Bullhead City, AZ, over Aquarius & Riverside Casino(s). The unknown type craft where barely visible, almost equivalent to a "mouse cursor moving across a computer screen" at a fast paste. I attempted to immediately, retrieve my Simmons binoculars 10x42, and with my common-sense articulation and judgment followed the trajectory of the unknown 3 crafts, and was still able to observe the crafts moving via binoculars observation. as I was simultaneously observing the craft taking my eyes away for the binoculars with the naked eye I was unable to observe the craft moving in a south-southeast direction. The totality of the observations lasted less than 20 seconds. the craft appeared to be flying at low altitude vaguely visible to the naked eye. Weather conditions are cold at 64° Fahrenheit with broken clouds that appear to be at high altitude with somewhat of a full moon in the Northeast sky opposite of where I observed such crafts traveling in the western sky of my observation. While observing the unknown 3 type crafts, it appeared to look like a triangle, with one light in the lead and the other two further back, as if they were trailing the lead in the front. I'm quite certain that a cell phone camera or video camera would not have captured what I observe with my eyes, the light of a craft were extremely dim or vague and appearance. I also took a cell phone camera picture of my sitting observations, after the objects cleared the vicinity, available upon request, if needed.

Scottsdale, AZ
Solid bright red light (thought it was a small plane) moving SE the speed of small plane from above North Scottsdale. Red glow turned to orange and grew 4X in size as it brightened and slowed down to near stop. Slowly turned to NE direction changed from orange to white and slowly faded out. Approximate time laps 2-3 minutes. Not sure if it was a flare. No other aircraft close in proximity were visible.

My fiance and I were driving west on high way 10 ten miles west of benson and saw a formation of likes 10’ o clock from our position. Like 20 lights spread apart and then quickly getting into a formation and the lights blinked off each one by one and the last two lights took like a minute to cut off but the first ones were right after another.

Mesa, AZ
In the Southwest skies at approx. 19:20 was a horizontal formation of lights. They appeared to be following in a line with the last light keeping space from others. They didn’t appear to be ascending/descending but did appear to be getting further away. The lights seemed to have disappeared one at a time as though they were going into a pocket one at a time.

Tucson, AZ
Some friends and I had just arrived home after being out for a while and when I parked the car in my driveway, one of my friends noticed a strange object in the sky that seemed to be moving. It was almost like looking at a straight line of lights moving silently across the sky. It disappeared after about 4 or 5 minutes.

Gold Canyon, AZ
We saw a formation that at first looked like a flock of birds, but it was dark and they were illuminated. At first it was a cluster but then formed a straight line. We looked through binoculars and it did not appear to be birds. They were all a bright white light

Eagar, AZ
Driving home tonight about 5 miles south east of town and saw a line of strange lights traveling south bound maybe 1000-1500 feet off the ground and climbing at a slight angle. At first i thought it was multiple craft in a line, maybe helicopters or something. I had my binoculars in the front seat and quickly pulled over and turned off my car. When I looked at the lights in the binos I clearly saw that this was one large long skinny craft, making no sound what so ever. The lights in the craft were varying brightness and looked like lights within a ship. I watched in total shock for what seamed to be 60 or more seconds before the lights slowly dimmed and disappeared as this "craft thing" headed south. I'm out at night in the wilderness all the time, that's all we have out here is open spaces. Never in my life have i ever seen anything like this. No explanation, sure would like some answers. believe 100% this was something significant and not of this world. I don't feel comfortable talking about this. people will think I'm crazy but it was there.

Quartzsite, AZ
In the evening of 11/11/19, we were sitting next to our RV at an RV park in Quartzsite. We were facing west. We had been sitting there for about 45 minutes when we noticed a well organized, straight line of lights proceeding from right to left, that is, north to south, against the black night sky. There was little separation among them, but they were discriminable. They were traveling roughly at the speed of airplanes, but what was so striking was how many of the lights there were, and how they were quite well organized into a line. We weren’t sure we could see well all of the ones that were there, partly because the luminosity of some of the lights changed significantly, especially the first and perhaps 3rd and 4th lights, that grew in intensity, and then subsided to that of most of the others. As they proceeded further south, they all grew dimmer, but some of the ones in the rear dimmed faster than some of the ones in the front. This definitely was not a meteor of some kind leaving a trail, it was not a descending arc, and the separation among the lights appeared regular. They were flying at what appeared to be the same, level altitude the whole time they were visible. We pointed them out to the folks sitting next to the RV behind us and they easily confirmed that they could see the same thing we were seeing, a line of what could have been around 15 easily visible lights, led by some that flared up brightly. Not all of the lead lights grew in intensity, just the first and possible the 3rd and 4th, maybe the 5th. My husband and I disagree on exactly how long they were visible to us, but we watched them until they dimmed so much, apparently because they were more distant, that we could no longer see them. I suspect we could see them for about 1-2 minutes, maybe not even that long. I attempted to take a video or photo, but the lights were too dim by the time I tried. They may always have been too dim to capture on an iPhone.
