Multicolored light formation, with a white background which at first seemed like a little part of a rainbow very close to the setting sun but on looking at it carefully it was just confined to that area and had a white background plus it also had a different kind of illumination to it but definitely a very pleasing thing to look at Was seen on the sky right over my home

Looked out my deck toward shorewood beach and saw a black shaped boomerang come out of water with a man in a suit of some kind hovering below craft. Boomerang looked to be black transparent and was floating like a balloon up ,almost like gently then speed of tremendous speed up to the west was gone wierd ,looked like it was cloaked.

SeaTac, WA
I want to report that at 3:31am, the morning of April 13th, 2020 I observed through my bedroom window some strange lights. There about 5 or more bright lights which seemed to be milling around in a clockwise manner. They were so bright it reminded me of a beacon type light. But they may have been at a distance of 10 miles away. Although this seemed strange I did not go outside to investigate further as I don’t feel safe outside at night. About 4am I looked again and saw the moon but not any more of the lights. I live about 3 miles east of SeaTac airport and wonder if anyone that works in their control tower might have seen something. I live alone, am 87 years old and spent my working life working with mechanical things such as bus engines for Metro and ship engines in the Navy.

Taking dog outside. Looked up and saw a long line of single almost evenly spaced bright white lights moving across the sky. No sound. No shape, headed ESE direction

Ferndale, WA
Saw a line of lights moving across the morning sky, equally spaced in a line. Occasionally one light was adjacent to the line but maintaining the same speed. Traveling from NE to SW. They look like satellites (similar constant speed, no flashing lights). There seemed to be many of them. I witnessed approx. 20, but they were in the sky before I got outside and were still flying by when I went in so who knows how many?

There I was going outside for a smoke when out of the corner of my eye I see what looks like a plane flying overhead with the flashing lights until a second later I see another one... and another... and another! For 30 minutes solid the strange flashing lights flew overhead in a single file line formation from over the pacific ocean, heading from the west to the east inland, without a single sound. I thought I was going crazy so I went inside, woke my mom up, and got her mobile phone from her to take a short video and to make sure I wasn't going crazy. Not even she had seen anything like this before. There were many flashing lights following very closely to the single file line formation, clearly going in the same direction, almost as if it was an inexperienced pilot going off the directed flight path. 2 even crossed paths, not colliding, but clearly still traveling in the same direction. The only answer anyone could give me on the internet were Elon's Starlink schedule but after watching a video of Elon's Starlink schedule and view I can say with confidence that it wasn't a group of satellites orbiting in a single file line formation for 30 minutes straight. I've never seen anything like this before in all my almost 30 years of living. There were so many flashing lights flying overhead that my mom couldn't tell they were flashing until after she'd completely woken up and watched the small video I captured while watching later that morning. She thinks it was a military exercise but I've never seen nor heard of a military exercise being conducted in such a plainly obvious formation. These flashing lights moved way too fast to be satellites in visible orbit. They were almost all in sync aside from the randoms me and my mom spotted flying in close proximity to the others traveling from the west to the east. These flashing lights went on so long that they were still visible as the sun peaked and started hiding the night sky. Thank you for taking the time to read about what I have seen and experienced.

Two star like objects quickly zipping across the sky. At first, they appeared to look like two shooting stars with no tails but they continue for several seconds. They appeared to be chasing each other. They quickly changed directions and almost disappeared but they then reappeared again, zipped around and finally were out of site. Moments later a flashing light from the same vicinity flashed several times (5 seconds between flashes). We thought maybe they were an airplane light but they didn't change locations. It flashed about 5 times and stopped. I am not an active follower of this page but wanted to report this as it was a peculiar incident.

There has been a strange light just sitting in the sky for at least a week now, however, I don't know how long it went unnoticed by me before that. I live right off of 1-5 and 78th st, and I look out my window every night and it's just there, sitting there, not blinking or moving at all. at first, I thought it was a star, but it can't be because I can always see it when it's dark enough and it's brighter than the stars. sometimes, something blocks a tiny portion of the light, but I can't tell what.

It was a clear early morning. Saw Jupiter, Mars and Saturn in the South East. Looking up directly overhead saw a bright star and then saw a light just as bright as the star, similar in shape and brightness pass it. I thought I had seen as a satellite. I followed it till it disappeared in few seconds. Then immediately after another went by and then 8 more. All within a span of few minutes. All only as a bright or little brighter. Equally spaced. Starlink?

I had stepped out on to my back deck at 0530 to smoke a cigarette, when I observed what at first I believed to be the ISS traveling from the NW to the SE in the pre-dawn sky. I then noticed another object of the same size and speed, in trail, of the first object and thought it must be a resupply module chasing the ISS in preparation for a rendezvous. I was somewhat startled to observe yet a third object trailing the first two, as I have never seen three satellite-like objects trail each other before. The roof of my house was obscuring the view to the NW, so I stepped farther out onto my deck and was shocked to see even more of these objects in trail of each other. Total of 14 objects, no sound, at satellite altitude, appeared to be satellites in trail. The first 6 or 7 seemed to be at an equal distance from each other, and the last 7 seemed to be somewhat staggered. These objects where just pinpoints of bright light, no navigation lighting observed, and moved across the sky at the constant speed of a satellite. I believe these objects were in orbit, and not high flying aircraft. I observed a total of 14 objects, but there may have been more before I went out on my deck.

Around 8:57 P.M a large bright light was north east over the Spokane river near the mouth of the Columbia river also known as lake Roosevelt, two rivers. This light was a lot brighter then anything else in the sky. It had no blinking lights and hovered in one location then would alter direction to the East very quickly then would return to its original hovering location then would tend to go back and forth in very quick moments but always return to the original spot. It tended to dash to the East very quickly more often then any other direction before returning to its original location. To me If I could say how far it moved to the human eye I would say it moved one foot. But not knowing the distance it was from me, that 1 foot could be thousands of feet. I’ve gotten some footage and when it’s zoomed in there a clear as it looks round objects with strobe lights inside the circle. Picture a shooting target but around the bullseye is flashing lights. Keep in mind when just looking with your eyes there was zero light blink effect. Once zoomed with my camera is when it reveled the shape and strobe affect. ~Please contact only by email~

It was very bright, like a UFO, and flashing, and definitely bigger than a star. We noticed some red flashes around the white glowing light from the object in the sky. Perhaps it was a star or planet, but we're not sure.

Today I was laying flat on my back in my backyard practicing some breathing exercises and watching the thin wispy clouds blow with the breeze. Anyways, the skies were mostly clear, blue backdrop and I was laying with my head north and my head south when a large, white cylindrical object cpught my eye. It moved in a perfect South to North trajectory directly over me. I could see it was a large white cylinder, with some black details on the white cylindrical body that I couldn't make out. Can you spot satalites during the day? And clear enough to make out the shape? It took approx 15 seconds to completely cross the sky from South to North and it seemed to be much higher than the cloud level. It caught me off guard and I tried to catch it on video but was afraid to look away and then not find it again. If I hadn't been staring at the sky already, I would not have seen it. And the speed alone didn't give me much time either. I did not see any light on this obje! ct.

While walking north on 16th ave, I happened to turn to the south for no reason and see what happened to look like a silver special occasion balloon come across the lower tree line over 16th Ave S. rather quickly from the Redondo location and pick up speed. I lost this object in the trees for a few seconds and it made a sharp left to just what I can only assume was the I-5 highway then made a very sharp right turn south in the same direction of the highway. After that I lost track of it as it was out of my field of vision.

There's a pulsating sphere in the Westen sky. Appears to slowly move North. Got video on two camera pl hones. It pulses and gets larger or smaller. Does not appear to be an aircraft, meteor, or comet. It gets large and small again. Captured on video.

I was messing around with my telescope looking at the moon it was very bright that evening. I looked straight up without my telescope for a second when over my head these tiny white dots maybe 12 in total moving about 1/2 mile apart from one another where flying across the sky from one end to the other No sounds or blinking lights. They were moving pretty fast . It was obvious that something odd was going on. I was thinking "Wow whats that? and where are they going?" I tried to make sense of my sighting but I became more confused as ive seen comets and shooting stars and this wasnt any of those The ufos were too far above the earth to be domestic planes as they looked like tiny moving stars and there is 2 airports near Edmonds WA Everett and Sea Tac not to mention Kenmoresand all the sea planes.We know what frikin planes and helicopters look like and how they fly and where they fly etc This wasnt any of those.

We saw at least 35 lights pass over us on the same flight path. It was not a satellite link since some lights were staggered (not in a perfect line) and they were spaced too far apart! The passing of all the lights took 15-20 minutes.

While outside on a clear night sky, we witnessed star like lights moving from south west to north west, in a perfect line, equally distanced from each other, moving at a fast pace. No blinking. They all started to fade away at some point. We couldn’t believe how many there were. Can satellites do that?

Green, red and flashing white light like an airplane but brighter hovering over North Seattle like a drone at first then suddenly flew west in a straight line faster than an airplane. I was able to record the object with my phone for about 30 seconds.

Went outside for a cigar on my patio. Looked up at the sky to see the stars. Saw two orange lights I know we're not stars hovering in place. Then both lights took off in an upward direction, then sharply turned away from each each other and disappeared.

Black cylinder shaped object seen in sky traveling from SE. Made no noise as it travelled, stopped and hovered then continued NE. It then changed direction going North. Notice interruption of TV program right before I saw it from our living room window
