I was watching blue jays in the pine tree in my backyard and noticed, extremely high in the sky, a hovering shiny object. At first, I thought maybe it was a plane but it remained stationary. I believe the object was 1 shape but I couldn’t completely tell with my binoculars or camera. Every minute or so for about 5 minutes, the shape would disappear, almost like the object was spinning and I could only see it when the sun was reflected off it.

Noticed this object move from the NE to the east. The object brightened before it appears to hover. After it Hovered, the object disappeared.

My kids and I went outside to play in a large snow pile I had plowed on our driveway a couple day’s before. It was right after dusk so I gave my kids flashlights to play in the snow tunnels they had previously made and I sat in the snow supervising their safety. It was very cold but high pressure so the sky was perfectly clear and I was enjoying the sky. My son sat next to me so I could adjust his hat and right as I went to adjust his hat I saw something moving in the sky to the west heading east. It had a fairly bright intensity of white light, slightly brighter than a star and was moving slow like when’s you see something in a polar orbit like a satellite. As it moved to the right of my viewing location it began to sparkle like maybe it was entering the atmosphere. After a second or two the sparkling stoped and it continued to move at the same speed and direction for another few seconds before there was a flash and two perfectly identical circular but slightly smaller objects with lesser light intensity were jettisoned behind the primary object and outwards at the exact time. The smaller objects quickly lost intensity and speed as the they separated and the primary objects continued on the same trajectory until it disappeared at the horizon. Myself, my son, and daughter all saw the objects.

When you zoom in you can see these things are changing shape and the one goes a a very high rate of speed. I just got 13 secs of video, but I’m surprised at how good it turned out

This Is the second time seen this particular object. Have Amazon parrot had him outside he was the 1 that alerted me to this he was looking upwards made weird noise happen to look up and saw it again crossed shaped object flying low probably less than 200 feet up in the air white color noiseless not a bird or drone let alone a toy plane flying pretty fast going east towards Los Angeles less than 5 seconds sighting. I consider myself a semi expert on aircraft specially military . Size of this object small I would say around 4~5 feet long I would estimate.. first time saw it like a month ago around same time this time going west towards the ocean against the wind. Am totally baffled by this

I was driving on 83 South with my girlfriend yesterday during the day when there was completely blue skies. I look up to admire the nice day and blue sky when I noticed a plane in the sky because of its contrail. To the right of the planes path was a very bright small circle that looked like a star, but it was the middle of a bright sunny day so I knew it was not a star. The difference between the plane and its contrail and this object was very noticeable. I pointed it out to my girlfriend and we both looked at it for a couple seconds then went around a bend with the tree line blocking our view for a few seconds, and when we came around the bend it was gone. Just about 1 minute later further down 83 and now into Baltimore City…I saw a less bright and dull white circle moving extremely fast in the other direction then completely lost view of it. It was moving with no contrail and was also faster than any flying object I’ve ever seen. There was no sound either.

One orb came into view, at first I thought it was a bird then another came into view and drastically changed direction as the dirt orb continued on in a straight direction. After losing sight of both the second orb reappeared as the first orb came back into view the the direction it had disappeared. After coming into close proximity of each other they flew off in a straight north west direction.

It was a totally clear/cloudless day. I witnessed a string of extremely bright white lights glowing high in the sky to the NE/92117 moving very slowly. The lights were not normal plane/helicopter/etc. lights. They were brilliant white. As I watched for several minutes, it came closer yet remained at a high altitude. That was when I clearly saw its shape of a rectangle or large square, silver, shiny, no wings, a single bright white light in the center front, and a string of the brilliant glowing incredible white separate lights all across the back section from end to end. There was no sound as it moved very slowly to the W. I saw and heard 3-4 private small planes go across the sky at much lower altitude, passing under the craft above them. I wondered what it must look like to those pilots, assuming they would look high above them. I watched at least 15 minutes until the craft was so far W towards the ocean that I lost sight of it. When it actually went overhead where I was/92111, I could see the string of separate lights all across the back end of the rectangle or large square, and the single light in the center front. Only the string of lights glowed brilliantly and could easily have been seen by anyone looking up. They caught your eye because of their brilliance. The craft kept moving the entire time at an extremely slow speed. It made me feel as if it were observing. I kept looking for other people to watch the amazing sight but none were around. Even though the craft was at a high altitude, it must have been huge to be able to see the string of lights on the back end glowing so brightly in the blue sky. I'll never forget it.

I was driving and saw an odd shape object in the distance just hovering as I got closer I couldn’t make out what it was so I parked and watched it hover around for a few minutes I started to record it and after a few second of recording it I could not find it in the sky it had disappeared.

Just After midnight February 6, 2022 a flying craft that looked like 4 linked blocks hovered over Pasadena CA, pulsing yellow light, moved a short distance west, hovered again, then traversed west. It was utterly silent. I ran inside to grab my iPhone 8, shot some photos.

Audible rumble from night sky, coming from above, behind sighters who were in an open field on a semi moonlit frigid February night about to sled. A very large disk shaped object 50-100 ft diameter suddenly came into view nearly directly above from behind. Traveled roughly in west to east direction. Bright green light in center underneath. Noticeable rumble sound. Unfamiliar sound. Disturbingly unfamiliar rumble sound…not a helicopter, not a plain. Object moved in slow floating motion overhead to front of viewers. Extremely bright came on directly beneath object. As a vertical beam of light projecting from object to the ground, scanning movement. Shape of beam rectangular. Viewers in beam momentarily, nearly blinding brightness. Overwhelming eeriness prior to, during sighting turning into fear during and after. Object with beam of light continued moving slowly with beam falling on the open snow and ice covered field which includes farmland, fencing. And a large electrical transmission line. Object slowly moved eastward then faded from view but more of a disappearance then actually flying off or traveling off into the distance. Object just disappears slowly within a half mile a way or so. Viewers so frightened they ran back to home… which was about 150 yards from house.

I saw something very unusual. Dare I say a UFO. What I feel is that it was not a plane. I was on my run just around Redondo Union High School in Redondo Beach, CA. What I saw was what I first mistook as a plane flying by in the lower troposphere, but what was unusual was the VERY BRIGHT ORANGE LIGHT it was emitting. Far brighter than any light a plane would be emitting. I saw it flying closer into vision only to see it decelerate in the night sky, almost to a standstill. After watching it linger and continue to emit bright orange in the sky as it seemed to approach from the eastern sky, I saw it once again accelerate… continuing to emit its bright orange luminosity. It flew away into the horizon into the Oceanside western sky. As it flew west, it seemed to ascend further into the stratosphere, and then mesosphere, until its bright orange light faded as I kept peering from my phone to the UFO . It’s all in the name, UFO, unidentified flying object. So, I can’t tell you what it was, because I honestly don’t know. I doubt it was a plane though. If this were a drone, it had a very powerful orange emitter to still be seen if it ascended towards the mesosphere.

While on vacation in Washington, we went skiing at Crystal Mountain. We got off the bus & we were loading our ski gear into our car. I glanced up and saw something lit up in the sky. I assumed it was a helicopter or airplane so I went back to what I was doing. Then, my mom also looked up and told me to look again. This time, the object was much closer to us and lower to the ground. It slowly & smoothly passed over us at a low elevation - close enough to see that it was circular and had a blueish white glow to it. It was also moving completely silently. I passed over us from north to south and then took a hard turn to the west and disappeared behind the bluffs.

I was taking out the trash at work to the outside dumpsters of the building facing south towards the coastlines and if followed in a straight path, would my guess be, past Delaware. Potentially out in the ocean in the sky. It was a green light that just sat in the sky for about 3-5 minutes and could have been there longer than when I first stepped outside and saw it. I questioned if it were a plane at first but realized it was impossible because there was a plane in the sky pretty further east and I actually was able to compare the two. Once I had finished with the trash, and keeping a close eye on the green light, it had started to zip left and right. It obviously had no indication of being a plane or even some sort of radio or cell tower given it had started to move and was really high in the sky. Higher than any tower man would probably build. I just stared in amazement and astonishment because I’d never seen anything like it before. It zipped left and right and I could just tell it was probably all these weird directions that any flying object know to the public wouldn’t be a plane. Then it almost just rapidly descended downwards and disappeared. My guess is it was probably in the ocean off the coastline of Delaware and potentially a little bit further east than that sprightly. Not east enough to be past Philadelphia.

As I Was looking at the Orion constellation and wanted to look at the star Betelgeuse to see if it had indeed gotten dimmer, I saw what looked like a red star start flying across the sky from a stationary position I was facing west towards the Rocky Mountains it flew south until it was out of sight and then turned around and flew the other way until it was out of sight not more than 1 to 2 minutes later just above the mountain line I saw a white light materialize and flash out of nowhere it flashed about every 5 to 7 seconds until it stayed on and when that happened a clear bubble formed around the light and then it shut off to the north faster than I could blink it seem to leave just a small faint bubble kind of like an air planes contrail but much smaller and much much more different looking it was like the object to move so fast that the bubbles that I had formed around it tried to stay with it so it was like an aftermath circular bubble with a tail facing north my dog was also going crazy and staring at this guy he is a two-year-old German shepherd and very smart dog

I got out of my car on poplar st. I noticed something to the west. I started yelling at my mom “do you see that?” As I was running down the road. It looked small but was going so fast that there was light in the middle but like blue flame around it and leaving a tail. In approx 6 to ten seconds it went from when I seen it clear past me to the south and blinked out into nothing. It happened at 7:14 pm on Saturday. Please let me know if you do know what it was. I have seen two other encounters like this. One over Idaho 2005 I believe. That one we did call the police. It was a huge fireball going across the sky and then down the highway we seen the top of the mountain on fire. If you have any info on that please tell me. Last night’s incident has me going nuts. Any information please

Was outside using my sky map on my iphone to look at planets and stars with my kids after dinner. Saw a bright (what I thought was a star) to the north. My sky map said it was Polaris. Well I was looking at the star map my daughter said that it's moving I think it's a UFO in a joking manner. I put down the phone and then looked at it and saw the object moving. I pulled up my video on my phone and started recording and zoomed in as far as I could go. What is a circular white object with a gray circle just inside of the white and then in the very center a gray dot. Look like it was emitting spikes or something wrong the outside perimeter all the way around and that it was spinning clockwise. I followed it from where we sought in the north sky around where Polaris was east in the sky. At one point I zoomed out and lowered my camera down for directional purposes when it was over my neighbors house across the street. At that point tried to find it again and it had disappeared. About a one minute video. Looks similar to one on TV’s Secrets of Skinwalker Ranch. I reported to MUFON immediately. They researched it and their response was: For the most part it is inconclusive but it could be a " tic tac". It has been added to to the data base for possible tic tacs.

A very bright light on the sky that was disk shaped and lights were flashing. The light was bright white. It was staying still, rotating on itself. Then after almost a minute it starting moving then a red light flashing could be seen and the one light divided into two disk lights, one smaller than the other. The lights got dimmer and dimmer while it started moving towards us, we were in car stoped in a red light. Then shortly after it started moving it disappeared.

It was a slow moving large triangular shape- very large. Red white blinking lights at each corner, blinking SIMULTANEOUSLY. Heard an ethereal sounding low hum.
