Noticed green light darting back and forth I pulled out phone but didn’t switch to video however when picture was taken I got a “live” quick clip of it leaving where it was conducting activity I have two other experiences with this craft one before and one after plus a startling experience involving multiple craft. I am also pretty sure that once in the air they mimic airplanes by flashing a light which was confirmed the next time I saw it which I also have video of. I have no video of the first sighting but not only was I closest to object the third time I also had someone with me who saw it take off the same time I did. It made no sound had green light around the outside of it but once in the air it blinked white or clear light that we could see came from under the craft confirming what I suspected about mimicking airplanes.

My brother and I were standing in the backyard of our suburban home at approximately 22:28 on April the 25th. We had our telescopes set up for a night of astronomical observations. I was looking north-east trying to get the globular cluster M13 in the eye piece when my brother exclaimed “Dude what is that?”. I turned my head north and saw high above us a translucent craft moving at approximately five hundred knots due west. It was if 20 or so smaller lights were traveling in perfect sync with each other in the shape of a V. It created an atmospheric disturbance that made it look similar to a nebula. We both were caught in both shock and slight horror. It made no sound, left no contrail, and was below the higher stratus clouds. It moved west for approximately ten to fifteen seconds and disappeared. We initially suspected it to be some Russian Spy plane. I immediately called my significant other and while describing what I saw, the craft returned. This time it was flying north to south. It began to shape shift into a straight line, a triangle, and almost a bird like shape. It moved for 20 seconds in an erratic flight path before disappearing behind some trees on the western horizon. We stood in our backyard dumb struck for a couple hours waiting to see if it would return. But it never did. Our dog was upset for a couple hours after the event as well. She kept coming up to us and crying.

My 5-year-old and I had a walk in the evening on 4/26/2022, there's still some light outside, and the sky was clear. At around 7:50 pm, suddenly we saw a bright object in the sky at the north direction, which quickly dropped in 2 - 3 seconds, with no sound. From where we saw, the object was about the size of an average woman's hand, and its original height was close to what we usually saw about a small airplane. We have after-dinner walks almost every day and there's a small airport nearby, so we've seen quite some airplanes. Besides, we like to look up at the sky and discuss what we see when we walk, but this object was different from anything we saw. When my son drew what he saw, he drew six dark-blue lines that crossed at the center with light blue emission between the lines, he was very sure it's a blue object, but I saw a yellow object with 5-6 symmetric sharp corners. Both my son and have regular vision (no color blind). So what we are certain it was a bright spiky object that showed different colors to different people. There's no aircrafts close to it when we saw it. When it dropped, my first reaction was: oh no, it must be a big crash and we should hear some loud sound, but we didn't hear anything. We checked several videos about parachute flares, and what we saw were not like that. It may not be something from ET, but we just want to know what that is. Thank you!

I was standing behind the Fire Station on Brunswick Rd and was looking up in the sky and saw a bright light that was flashing slowly (approximately 1 sec on and 3-5 sec off) the light was holding positions so I thought it was a satellite or high altitude plane. It was vary high and the light was not like the white strobe on the underside of a plane. The the light started moving towards the east and would pause then make a vary short fast movement to the south. I looked for con trails coming off it and saw none. It just would make a fast movement then hold still then move again. The light had to much altitude to be a helicopter and no noise was being made. I observed the light and compared it to the plane that was flying past the station going to MEM (probably landing on RW18L or 18C) and the plane beckon was noticeably faster between flashes and much closer and I could hear the engine of the plane. After about 7-10 minutes the light was gone, I then searched the sky for it to appear again and it did not. I did not have my phone so I could not take a picture of it ( not that it would do any good because of the distance of the light)

picture taken with iPhone 13 pro the bottom of the picture will give you the settings and time. I did not see the white light until I looked at the picture. It was the 1st pic it's not in the other two But I zoomed in on the moon. No light. The cloud is the only one in the sky at the time and I thought it was interesting next to the moon

Moundridge, KS
while outside at 430 am, at 38°12′9″N 97°31′7″W (38.202497, −97.518506), looking westward and up with a moderately powered telescope at a star grouping, an oval shaped object came into field of view. This object was moving at a very fast rate and traveled the entire range of view from west to east in a matter of four seconds. The object moved many times faster than a jet airplane could travel. The oval object was dimly lit but visible, It appeared to be lit like a standard passenger vehicle would look if it were traveling a highway in the night without headlights on but had the interior dome light on. There was no light leading the object and there was no light trailing the object. The light appeared to be centered inside the object. I watched the object without losing sight of it in the telescope for about 4 seconds before it was out of view entirely. It traveled a linear path with no variation of its course. The object was lit up inside with a brightness only slightly less than that of the stars it passed by. I could not accurately define a specific color of the object because of the darkness surrounding, but I would compare what I saw to the color of a "meatball." Additionally, the object looked as if it had a bubble encapsulating it. A mostly clear but slightly hazy bubble that seemed to be filled with light smog came into view first, then what looked like the front half of a meatball, still encapsulated in a smokey bubble, than a clear spot with a slight dull shimmer and a soft light, then the back half of the smoky bubble, the edge of the bubble, and then nothing as it faded and I could no longer see the faint light. I would estimate the object was around 5 light years from Earth or slightly more.

I’m a college student, and my roommate and I like to stargaze in the country. Neither of us believe in aliens and were only looking for shooting stars. We both noticed one “star” that was moving, and assumed it was a plane or satellite. This object started to move in shapes, some of which seemed like letters to us - we saw a deliberate “M” shape, an “S” and etc. We watched it for an hour wondering if we were seeing things, and looking at other stars to make sure it was actually moving in relation to them (which it was). We then noticed two fainter starlike objects very close to the main one, seemingly higher in the sky, making a perfect isosceles triangle. All three would move in strange jerky ways, unlike a satellite or plane. None of them moved very far from the original spots, and after making shapes, would return to their original positions. We have no idea what could be doing this and decided to report. All objects looked high enough to be outside the atmosphere, and several planes flew under them. They were white and generally just looked like stars, but twinkled more frequently.

I observed three objects each 10 minutes apart. The first object flew over my head hovered for a bit then flew off and blew up in the sky. The explosion caused debris to rain down in the sky at a slow rate which tells me it was way off in the distance. I then called my wife to come outside and look. Her and I witnessed the second object that followed the same pattern as the first object from east to west. The object was very bright, red /orange, orb shaped. I could see a square metal object in the center. There was a gray halo around the bright lights. The second object flew off at a high rate of speed and then slowly disappeared from sight. I took a photograph with my phone. The third object followed the same pattern, about 10 minutes later and I took a video. I will attach them here. I am very familiar with Starlink and have apps to track satellites, this was not a satellite.

I have a Ph.D. and am an amateur photographer. I set up my Tamron ultra-telephoto zoom lens (SP 150-600 mm f5-6.3 DiVC) on a tripod to shoot the Starlink satellite pass over Lake Norman last night. I focused on the area where according to my Stellarium App the satellites would be visible from 8.20 PM onwards. I saw a yellow "star" that to the naked eye I assumed was probably Venus, but on closer examination through my lens it appeared to be a large circle surrounded by a ring of bright white lights. Thinking this may be part of the satellite system I started shooting. When I developed the shots, most were blurry because the object was moving faster or more erratically than expected. I enhanced the clearest shot, which looks to be a bit too symmetrical for a planet or star. My neighbors were also watching from their docks and saw only the "star" but suggested sending the clear shot to you for further analysis.

At 8 pm, while outside enjoying a warm evening, a long-duration (10 seconds) flasher appeared of brightness -6 (brighter than brightest Venus) in the southern sky at 50 deg declination. I refer to these sightings as flashers based on the typically instantaneous flashes of varying brightness that are almost a guaranteed viewing if one gives a half hour or more of continuous observation. As a 54yo lifelong skywatcher, I have seen well over 50 uap including close-ups, daytimers, and shapeshifters. I haven't seen an extraterrestrial that I am aware of. Over 50% of the sightings have been flashers. 0% were common satellites. The light of a flasher typically is of point-source starlike intensity vs dull, reflected light from satellites or planets. Normally the flashes are instantaneous or microseconds in duration but a few have been of seconds-long duration. Flashing light is a great way to send information I hear.

My husband & I were turning into the Winn Dixie Shopping Center at 3551 North Ponce De Leon Blvd.(US Hwy 1), facing West, in St Augustine, FL, the time was approx 10:15 am, the sky bright blue, sunny, with a partial shape of the moon in the morning sky (which drew my attention). I was the passenger with a clear view out the front windshield of the car. Just SE of the moon was a clear view of a cylinder craft. It was clear against the sky, although you could tell it wasn’t close in distance. No movement, with no trail in the sky, seemed to be not moving at all. Then I noticed to the East/SE of the 1st craft was 2 more, the same shape, a little apart from each other, one not as plain as the other, looking farther away than the first. In the few seconds that it took us to park, I looked over to my husband, and told him, then jumped out of the car, looked again, and they were gone. As far as I could tell in those few seconds, I could see no lights, and no contrails. These were very clearly seen, with no doubt that they were not airplanes, ballons, helicopters, or any other craft that I had ever seen in my 75 years. There was no time to get my camera from my purse and take pictures before they were gone.

I was sitting by my window and I saw a reflective green light at my window. I checked my tv before to make sure I wasn’t crazy and that I had actually seen something. I look out and the bright neon green ball flys across my window for a short distance and then it began to fly lower as it disappeared out of thin air right before my eyes. It wasn’t going fast enough for me to only catch a glimpse. But it was so sudden that I couldn’t take any pictures or photos. Since I’ve never seen anything like that before. I know it wasn’t a drone or anything like that because people don’t usually do that in our neighborhood. It was close enough to my window but I could not see inside. It was so bright but not bright enough to make my room have green lighting. Just enough to see it. It was maybe a few feet above the house next to me to the right and it flew down towards a yard our by the creek that’s located in the back of our house. I’ve never seen anything like that before and I 100% believe it was something other than a human. It wasn’t alive but it was like it was being driven and then it kind of “crash landed” in a sense.

When I spotted the craft it was almost directly overhead. It was traveling north to south at the same speed as a satellite travels across the sky. It was in the shape of an isosceles triangle but with the nose rounded. The craft was white but not a mirror like reflection of satellites. As it moved south it passed into the earths shadow and disappeared. There was no sound nor would you expect any at that altitude.

I saw three white lights which i first thought to be a very low airplane, so low that i was alarmed. i watched it move west, then it came suddenly to a totally stop and switched directions, now moving east at the same slow even pace. i rolled down my window as i got close thinking it was a drone or maybe a helicopter but there was no sound at all. i was less than a block away and it was just above the trees and seemed way to big to be a drone. i could see little lights that seemed to move clockwise between the three white lights. something was reflecting light above the three lights as well, like metal, and seemed to be moving counterclockwise. the object again stopped and suddenly changed directions, now heading north. i watched it move for another 20 seconds, then it came to a stop again. i looked at the road and back and it was gone. i spent the rest of my drive watching but it never reappeared.

My girlfriend and I were traveling on the I10 from Tucson to Phoenix. Near the 194 exit I saw a light in the sky north east of us, presumably a plane. All of a sudden, a bright light shoots down from the plane then curves up to the left in a “J” shape before disappearing. It lasted all of 4 seconds. I tried to get my girlfriend to look up to see it and it had already disappeared.

Was leaving the house and, because of all the fires, it had been ages since I had seen the stars, so I was looking at them. Suddenly, one very bright star looked as though there was an incredibly bright corona around it. I stopped to watch it in order to verify what I had seen. When I found the star again, I watched for several seconds and, just as I had myself convinced I had been seeing things, a very bright flame-like something appeared either out of the "star" or in front of it. I only know that the star was no longer visible. As I watched for a few seconds, the "fire" disappeated and there was just the bright "star". I took the video to prove to myself, and others, that I had actually seen it, and then watched this happen over and over again. Being stopped on the shoulder, illegally, on a fairly busy road, I left and it was still there. If anyone knows what it is (satellite, space junk, etc) I would love to know. Thank you for reading the ramblings of a very excited person who has longed to see a UFO for decades.

Saw this when I took the dog for a walk. Asked my wife to come see it. It was very bright. She sat and watched with me for a few minutes then went back inside. She thought it was strange too. I walked the dog and came back a few minutes later and it was still there. I sat down and watched from my stoop which faces south. Took a photo and a video but it didn't quite capture the colors. The shimmer was not like a star. Honestly, it could have been a drone. There was almost a hovering movement - slightly up, down, left, right. However it seemed too far and too high to be a drone. Great colors. No discernible shape. That's about it! I went inside and came back out to check a few times. It seemed to slowly move lower in the sky until was gone. (I checked Venus. It set around 3pm PST in San Diego today). Any ideas or similiar reports?
