Beginning a little before 10:00 PM on Monday the 27th of June, 2022, I began to observe the night sky facing west of my home, towards the Pacific Ocean. I immediately noticed 4 glowing objects/lights staying stationary in the sky. The color of the objects was amber in color. I began to observe them with my high-definition binoculars and from what I was able to determine, the objects appeared elongated on a vertical axis, almost as an upside-down umbrella type of shape. I began videotaping the incident with my phone and was able to include passing planes in our vicinity to show that the objects were not planes, as they were standing still in the sky. The incident lasted for about an hour or so. The objects kept changing in number thru the night. Sometimes only 2 would appear and sometimes up to 5 would appear. We called our local sheriff dept and they mentioned they had no reports from any government agency of what the objects could be. They referred us to your organization. It was then that we found out that others in our county had reported the objects already as well. Local news channels eventually wrote a story the same night showing that others had also reported on the incident.

Viewed the sighting off of the coast where I live. It was above the ocean and had multiple lights that branched into several others all in the same area at best I would guess 2 miles apart. They hovered over the ocean and would disappear and then come back to the main

Dana Point, CA
Partner and I were facing about West, sitting on patio chairs while laying back and looking at the stars. High and to our right (about to our North) I thought we saw what started to look like just another shooting star, but the “shooting star” quickly became apparent as being three lights in a rigid triangle formation as they approached. The craft “flared,” like a jet plane would when making course correction to slow its decent and it leveled off. There was no sound, but the lights glowed brightly (a bright, yellowish white glow) as if to be catching the friction from the maneuver. I’m confident the space between these lights was blocking stars behind it, so while it was very dark one could still see that it was a rather large, triangle-shaped aerial craft. After the craft slowed its descent it continued course to the West and over the ocean. As it cruised away the glow from the three lights faded and we lost sight of the object. The whole sighting lasted less than ten seconds, but my partner saw the exact same thing and confirmed the description and agreed it was a craft of some kind. It’s hard to gauge the size of the object because of the darkness and the lack of reference (especially the lack of any sound), but it was not small—certainly not a drone or even fighter jet sized. It could have been a triangle that had edges as small as -20ft, or they could have been as large as ~80ft. The lack of sound suggests it was higher in elevation, making the object much larger. But it seemed to level off only a few thousand feet up (about propeller plane/helicopter altitudes) making one think it could have been smaller and just more stealthy. I’d guess it to be in between those previous estimates, with a triangle of edges about 30 feet in length—kind of like the size of a mobile home. After internet search it was a pretty classic “black triangle UFO”. We didn’t share this sighting with anyone at the time, but upon recently talking with a friend to mentioned the unexplained lights and sightings to the South in San Diego shortly after this, it could possibly be connected.

So I was in my backyard pool and I was looking up and saw a triangle of dots getting bigger and moving away into more of a line The top dot had some very faint other dots following it I think it was 2 to 3 faint dots. And then I was just staring at it until I went inside and changed and came out and used the StarChart on my iPhone (I didn’t really see much on the StarChart). It was also in its same position when I got back. And then I just went back inside and reported it.

IMPERIAL BEACH, CA
INITIALLY SAW 6 BRIGHT LIGHTS ABOVE THE OCEAN 3 EQUALLY SPACED ON TOP OF 3 EQUALLY SPACED. VERY BRIGHT, REFLECTIONS WERE SEEN OFF THE OCEAN WATER. 6 CHANGED INTO 5, 1 SIMPLY DISAPPEARING. 5 CHANGED TO 4, ANOTHER DISAPPEARING. 4 TO 3, 3 TO 2. THEN 1. THEN ZERO. THEN 1 REAPPEARED 1-2 MINS LATER. THEN ANOTHER, THEN A 3RD MAKING PERFECT TRIANGLES, BOTH OBTUSE AND ACUTE TRIANGLES. THESE SHAPES WOULD JUST HANG THERE IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT FOR AT LEAST 1 MINUTE EACH. THEN THEY FORMED A PERFECT RIGHT ANGLE. A 4TH BRIGHT LIGHT APPEARED AND THEY ALL FORMED LEFT SHAPED PARALLELOGRAMS (\\). HELD SHAPE AND LOCATION FOR AT LEAST 1 MINUTE THEN FORMED ANOTHER PARALLELOGRAM HEADING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION (//). EACH ONE WAS TWINKLING AT DIFFERENT TIMES. NO 2 WERE TWINKLING AT THE SAME TIME. WHEN THEY ALL LEFT, IT WAS AS IF SOMEONE HAD 'TURNED THE LIGHTS OFF', THE OCEAN WAS NO LONGER VISIBLE WHERE THEY WERE LOCATED. SOME STRANGE, ALMOST CONSTELLATION 1 LINED SHAPES WERE MADE. REMINDED ME OF A SPATULA FOR COOKING. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE ONE OF THE 1ST PEOPLE TO SEE IT. WE WERE THERE FOR OVER AN HOUR WATCHING THESE LIGHTS APPEAR, DISAPPEAR AND CHANGE SHAPES. WE LEFT BEFORE THEY WERE FINISHED. WE COULD STILL SEE THEM GETTING ONTO THE FREEWAY ABOUT 8 MILES FROM WHERE WE WERE.

San Diego, CA
Viewed two bright lights changing color over Ocean Beach San Diego. The light being produced was different from a plane or helicopter. The light seemed to change from oranges and yellows, to specs of green. The light being produced reminded me of flares, though these were not flares. The two balls of light stayed in the same location for my viewing time (about two minutes) before slowing fading and disappearing. Viewed from 7 miles away.

El Cajon, CA
This is a photo taken in El cajon California by myself, this object was flying at jet speed in a very straight trajectory with no means of propulsion to the naked eye. This object appeared to start shape-shifting when I finally opened my phone it was almost too late. I got some great pictures though and everyone of them it looks like a different object. This is so crazy because I always look at the sky and it seemed very surreal but humbling. I have more photos and video but would like to keep these to myself and not include on this report. I feel like this is very paranormal for I was looking for this and it appeared.

During a family gettogether, one of our guests notice an object almost directly overhead and called everyone out to see. After I saw it, i got out my full frame DSLR with a 150 - 600mm lens. I laid on the ground, zoomed out to 600mm, held the camera as steady as possible and took the image. After several minutes of observation and no apparent motion, we lost interest and returned inside our home. Since the recent coverage of the "spy" balloon, I realized that the object we saw bared an uncanny resemblance. The images include the original and 2 cropped.

Rancho Bernardo, CA
My son and I just finished swimming in the pool in Rancho Bernardo California. We dried off and we’re laying in the lounge chairs and notice two cylinders in the sky fairly close to each other and appeared to be circling each other. We videotaped for a few minutes a plane passed over them. We then noticed a third cylinder arrived and caught up to the other two then made a perfect triangle in the sky. They broke formation and went out of site shortly after that.

Temecula, CA
The object moved along a similar flight path as the Skylab, which usually comes across the sky in the evenings at approximately 8:00 pm, however the object seemed lower. It could have been a satellite or space junk I suppose. It could be seen clearly by anyone looking toward the moon at that hour of the day. It was black with reflective panels. Any satellites on that flight path?

Notice two small circle sphere like objects traveling very close to each other one behind the other very high in the sky look at my attention was they were very close to close planes usually keep a distance and they were not flying in a regular flight pattern they were very shiny it’s a very sunny day I noticed one changed direction and the one behind got very small almost too small where I couldn’t even see it anymore the one that it was following stopped mid air And made some very unorthodox aerodynamic moves that I know are planes can I do

Sonora, CA
Was leaving for work at 5:00 AM looked up because I seen the light above my home .I decided to take a picture because it looked odd , it then slowed down but did not stop. It almost seems like it reacted to my flash of my camera. It then proceeded to fly across downtown Sonora it was completely silent . I videoed it until it was out of sight. If you zoom in really close on the video it looks like it's hollow in the center.

Oceanside, CA
While sitting on the balcony at night looking west towards the ocean, we observed an assumed triangle shaped craft (based on the pattern of the 5 amber orange orb lights) traveling south along the coastline through the clouds. The craft made no sound and had no other lights besides those mentioned. As it traveled through the fog, it almost appeared as though it were cloaking. It’s speed was faster than a helicopter or commuter jet but not exponentially fast. The movement was steady and direct with no erratic behavior. The object(s) were also witnessed by my niece.

San Bernadino, CA
I was driving on the 10 freeway, I saw a strange shaped light in the middle of the sky that I thought was the moon. I decided to film it, and it appeared to change shape, shrink, and eventually fade away. I then saw it reappear, but then it faded away again. This is all caught on camera. I tried to upload all three videos, but only one of them was small enough to upload. I was hoping that someone can analyze my video, and tell me if the phenomena I witnessed is a common phenomena such as satellites or something.

I am an amateur photographer and I was waiting to photograph the moon next to San Francisco expected to rise at 121 Degrees ESE at 11:24 PM on June 16 2022 when i took this video without knowing the UFO was there. After viewing the video realize this could have been a UFO because of the way it flew without no blinking lights like a a commercial airplane, its speed, flying behavior and shape

It looked to be a star. Until it started moving, then it flew deeper into space and then vanished.
