St. Petersburg, FL
Was walking my dogs this morning as I do every early morning before the sun rises. I'm used to seeing aircraft in this area because of the airforce base and nearby airports. This was not any of those. This was not a shooting star which I have seen many times. This was light. Not like there was a light on it, but was the light. Maybe 300ft above my head. The speed was extremely fast. No sound, contrail, or shape. Just a light flying from right to left or coming from the NE flying to SW of where I was.

Fort Collins, CO
March 30, 2022; Fort Collins, Colorado At 11:18 PM MST an object was reported flying on a straight path north to south, speed approximately 250+ miles an hour. This was a relatively quick sighting obviously 30 seconds to 40, happened very close to the witness who got a very good look at it. It was making zero noise. The object was cylindrical in shape, almost cigar-shaped. It reportedly had a structure but was also yet transparent, almost a skeletal structure, and the rest of the vehicle was transparent and white lights outlined the structure with a singular red light towards the front. Witness explained that it appeared transparent because there were lights of another flight higher in elevation behind it that could be seen straight through the vehicle briefly. Range of sighting approximately eighth of a mile, elevation 400 feet. The determination of size felt accurate despite the sighting happening at night. It was very very close range and the witness approximated the size to be 30 to 35 feet in length approximately 10 feet in height. Location of sighting, in front of his house. He was transfixed in watching it for approximately 15 to 20 seconds then he had the notion to try to take a picture or video. What he had on him at the time was his iPad and unfortunately was not able to get the camera open fast enough to take a meaningful picture at the range he saw it clearest. Observer sees helicopters operating the general flight path somewhat frequently and of course they are making tons of noise and they’re very obviously helicopters. It was far too big for him to have assumed it was a drone like he had mentioned approximate 35 feet in length. Drones are also very noisy and usually have the same general lighting array the normal aircraft do, green red white. The air space that this craft was in is strictly off-limits to drones at the altitude it was operating.

Salton City, CA
We witnesses bright large amber yellow lights over the Salton city area at about 10 o’clock at night we stopped the car to get out we were very close probably within a mile or two appeared to coming towards us first and got larger I’m a private pilot and I did not hear an engine a jet no rotor wash they appear to be hovering but then in a very quick manner of the 13 to 10 lights four of them burned out instantly or just disappeared vanished and then there was a linear chain that went on a Wright degree angle all in a line at about a 45° angle and then it quickly turned into two triangles one on top of the other point-to-point one inverted one normal but then it went to a formation that reminded me of a the Air Force flying over the channel in World War II kind of a staggered on top of each other wingman formation and then two of them disappeared or the lights just went out they got really small like they were heading eastbound it appeared and just disappeared and then one by one they just disappeared it look like they got smaller and they vanished was very very surreal and bizarre

Salem, OR
In yard walking south around 9 pm. On phone with family member. Glanced up to sky while walking and caught movement over left shoulder. Street lights were on and it was dark out. Stars visible but possibly hazy light cloud cover. Turned around to see movement better and saw 5-6 fuzzy round objects in the sky flying north in formation. Close to airport and familiar with all sorts of aircraft coming too and from and there was no correlating sound to the objects that sounded anything like any flying object. Seemed high up like jet plane distance but bigger. No flashing lights or colors seen. The objects moved in formation smoothly like an uneven V formation like geese but way closer together. I told my family memeber I had to go and hung up and tried to grab a picture but I lost it through the outline of the tree as I was moving fast. Tracked with my eyes where it should be but looked down at my phone for camera app and couldn't find it after that. Very unfamiliar sighting and I look up a LOT in my life.

Wahiawa, HI
On Wednesday March 30th, while star and satellite gazing, my wife, grandchild and I witnessed a bright stationary blink approximately every 12-15 secs. I captured live footage with my iPhone, it's grainy yet still very visible. I went back out the following 3 days and could not locate the blinking light. I provided detailed coordinates of my location and of the anomaly. I'm very anxious and curious to have expert analyzation. Video details: The first blink is very faint due to thin clouds, it's located in the upper left corner of the video, approx 12 secs later the second blink will appear more towards the center and more visible, the final blink will appear in the center and is the clearest of all. Please keep in mind I was using my iPhone to record, the anomaly was stationary.

Me and a friend of mine were sitting at a bar on the beach and I looked up and saw a jet airliner with something following it. So I started recording from my iPhone 11.

I first saw it to my left it was right over the Roxborough Park area. Huge, very bright amber light with different colored lights around it. I kept glancing at it...while driving. It didn't look like a plane or helicopter. This was on Santa Fe Drive..no other traffic on the road. It was like it knew I was looking at it. It did a weird turn.. dropped in elevation and flew right over my car. I looked up and clearly saw it. It was completely round with a definite top and bottom. In the middle, was a series of what looked like windows separated by vertical bars. It was encased in an amber light but the middle section with the windows was turning and flashing colors of pink, green and white lights

Looked blue in color and seemed to glow. Moved slowly but made jerky movements up and down and side to side. I took a photo and a video with my iPhone 11. I zoomed in on the blue light and it seemed to rotate. Looked liked it had circles around the main blue circle. Lasted about 10 minutes before it just disappeared.

My mother and Aunt came home tonight at approximately 9:50 pm CST. They watched the sky trying to figure out what they were seeing. My mom came in and ask me to come out for a look. We live in a suburban area. The sky was partly cloudy and dark. We saw at least one hundred, white lighted (with the naked eye) objects flying from East to West. They were spread out from North to South over a fairly large area. They were not in a line or evenly spaced. It appeared that some were blinking while others were a constant white light. The shape appears circular in nature, again to the naked eye. The objects were moving at a much faster speed than an airplane for example. We continued to watch for approximately 10 minutes and I returned outside 15 minutes later to try to get a video and there were still a few of them but the number had decreased greatly. My video turned out pink in color with only one object showing at the end.

I was on the street around 8:10 PM when I saw/heard a helicopter above. I looked up at the sky and then noticed around 4 dim lights in a row/straight line moving at a slow-medium rate of speed overhead to the left of where the helicopter had passed by. The helicopter had since passed at this point. I realized that the lights were on the underside of a triangular flying object that blended into the sky. I would estimate that the object was larger than a passenger plane. The flying object almost seemed to be translucent or camoflauged and was moving discretely. I would not have noticed it had it not been for the lights underneath. The sky was relatively clear - there was some clouds but overall it was clear and easy to see the stars. The flying object was higher than a helicopter but lower than a plane. The lights were dim - not as bright as lights on planes - and a white/light yellow color. I did not hear it emit any noise. It seemed as if it was just leisurely gliding through the sky and did not want to be detected.

Las Vegas, NV
From a vantage point west of the Las Vegas Strip and in vicinity of I-15 at Tropicana Avenue, I stopped to take a photo of the Las Vegas skyline. As I aimed my camera, 4 green lights suddenly appeared. I saw it through the lens only as they disappeared just after taking the photo but were captured in the photo. Reference the 4 green lights over New York New York casino. It was about 8:00 p.m. (an hour after sunset) and partly cloudy.

Willits, CA
12 year crew chief in the Air Force. Was an aerospace technologies instructor. Have a DJI FPV drone and am familiar with the noise they produce at varying altitudes. This caught my attention because it maintained a consistent altitude and altered course by 90 degrees in a very precise and deliberate manner. It did not produce any noise. It was as if it was vantablack, couldn’t make out any features other than the general shape and size because it was dark and the object was black. It looked spherical from a distance. It maintained an approximate altitude of 500 feet. It flew toward me and proceeded over me as I started to record. When flying overhead at aproximately it appeared less spherical and more like a horizontally pitched disc, to the naked eye. It looked to be aproximately 6 feet in width and it traveled at approximately 5-10 mph. It had similar appearances to the declassified navy video of a black orb splashing into the water. I will also note that this particular valley has little to no cell service. I recorded it with low definition on an iPhone 12, then stopped the recording to change my settings to HD with a higher frame rate. By the time I had done so and started recording again, it was gone and I was left looking like ab idiot with a phone in a field. Disclaimer: I did have the generator for my camper operating, but I can hear my drone at that altitude and location. This thing was substantially larger and made no noise and had no noticeable outlets, exhausts, fans, propellers, or viewable means of propulsion. It is very possible that it was a man-made blimp-like object, I just haven’t seen anything like it before and it resembled close enough to the craft in the navy video for me to submit this.

While looking in the sky at work I saw three crescent lights traveling in unison, close to one another in the sky. The lights were not a normal light... similar to metal shimmering, but not metal. Very abnormal. I saw the lights traveling for approx 10 seconds, then disappear in a flash.

I was driving to my girlfriend after work. I was driving on rt70 e getting close to the first circle, I saw lights in the sky across the circle. I thought it was a helicopter because it was not moving but the lights looked strange. I went around the circle back onto rt70 the ufo was on my left a little way out. It looked very long, saw two large white lights on each side with multiple blueish green lights. I traveled up to the next circle and got onto rt72,I traveled about 12 miles and then I saw a ufo fly straight across, it also had two white light's that were pulsing and many green lights covering it. I traveled about 3 more miles, I was checking my mirrors and I noticed something in my rear view mirror. It looked like it was pretty far behind, It was coming towards me then it turned off the side into the woods. It had two horizontal orange lights and white lights on each side. It made no noise.

I was walking home from work when I looked up and I saw a glowing orb or object of some kind moving from the north side of the city going south hovering over the water? It changed shape a few times started going up and down etc.. then it vanished.

I was on my way to work and when driving across Nepco Lake Bridge I say a very bright light in the sky. I grabbed my cell phone to get a photo. I was able to get a photo although it is kind of blurry do to the fact that I was driving.

My husband, myself and our two children were on our way home from dinner out and there was a stationary craft, that made no noise, in the sky over Fox's General store. It had three lights that were blinking off and on. Red, green and clear. As we watched this craft it was like it noticed us or something? This was at 8pm. We watched it turn slightly and begin to follow us. It followed us for about 2 miles. We tried to watch it but as we rounded a curve in the Rd. It disappeared? We could not tell the exact shape, as it was very dark outside.

Unknown flew SE with bright, white flashing light on top & flashing red light on bottom, to near Catalina Mtn, stopped, moved longitudinally back & forth a short distance, then flew north along western edge of Catalina Mtns, stopped no red flashing light but a bright flashing white light, then continued northward along edge of mtns. No green light, only white & also red flashing lights. Then flew NW and joined by a second unknown with bright flashing light on top and a flashing red light on bottom. Second unknown flew toward Catalina Mtns. First unknown started flying south toward Tangerine Road. No sound, no green light, when moving horizontally it appeared to be on a rail, i.e., no vertical change in elevation except when it appeared to drop toward the ground. Speed varied, at times very fast, at other times slowed to a stop and immediately traveled backward a short distance. Longer flights appeared to be approximately 1800 mph +/- based off time lapse and approx distances. Very smooth flight, again, appeared to be on a rail with no vertical deviation except when it dropped deliberately in elevation. Took video. Nearby houses at times blocked view of unknown. It was dark, however, when it traversed westward north of us, body of the unknown was slightly visible. From the side it appeared to be cylinder or oval shaped. At beginning 1925 hours the unknown appeared to be wrapped within a translucent sphere around it. It appeared to not have this later. Not sure if there was actually a translucent wrap or it was a reflection but it was definitely all around it. At the beginning there was an apparent commercial aircraft flying westward at a much higher elevation. I have had a somewhat similar experience in the military at VAFB at an icbm silo. I wish to not be published on this please.

I was sitting on my balcony when I noticed something floating that I thought was a white feather. As I continued to look I saw it wasn't a feather and I watched it move from east to west and I followed it until a tree obstructed my vision. It seemed to have disappeared. I had to stop and think awhile about what I had just seen.
