Naples, FL
12/29/21 @ 8:06PM - While at work in my condo building, I was on the roof of the building checking elevator equipment room temperatures. I was 23 stories high and as I looked at the gulf in the northern direction at about 3o degrees west I noticed 3 lights in the sky over the water. The lights were white and bright at night over the gulf of Mexico. They looked to be in a shape of a circle but when I zoom in on the video they could be oval shaped. The lights formed a triangle and seemed to be still at about maybe 1000-2000 feet. After a short time the the light at the top of the triangle moved east. I took a video with my iPhone 13 for 1 minute and 36 seconds. I thought what I observed was unusual and forgot about it until I watched a documentary on Shotime on UFO’s.

I have always been drawn to the subject of ufology, and when I found out that my good friend Jeremy Bledsoe's father could offer some information, I overtime tried to find an opportunity where I could meet him in a comfortable setting where I could ask him questions. Jeremy was very willing to have me and my brother meet his father so we set up a time we could get together, get some pizza and then go golfing. Chris was very open and down to earth when it came to discussing his experience and ufology in general. The time spent with him that day golfing with him, his son, and my brother was more than pleasant. While golfing, Christopher said something along the lines of "Well, why don't you come around the house tonight around 6:30 if y'all want to see something." As the three of us pulled into the property, Chris was waiting for us with his eyes to the sky calling us to come look. **What we saw**: A bright light in an orb shape permeating the night's sky. The orbs' light looked as if it was an animated version of an unstable molecule. The orb was present for a full two minutes or so it did a spiral descent above the cabin and then disappeared. The orb made no noise whatsoever.

Lauderdale by the Sea Florida, FL
While waiting outside a beach side gift shop for my wife I was sitting on a bench facing east. Time was shortly after 12 pm EST. sky was clear with sea breeze. Looking up at the sky, I noticed a faint stationary star like object between two small clouds. What was interesting about the object was it seemed to brighten and dim with yellowish white light almost to non-visibility very irregularly. At some points it got quite bright, and then would dim and brighten again. It seemed to be very high up, too high for a drone, and if I had to guess, it seemed like something metallic, reflecting sunlight. No shape was discernable, it was a pinpoint of light. It was slighting north of east and about 50 degrees above the horizon. Interesting thing to me was it was absolutely stationary and never moved the whole time i saw it. The whole sighting lasted under 10 minutes. Object finally just disappeared and was no longer visible. I do not believe it was a drone or balloon, or conventional aircraft, the way it dimmed and brightened was unusual, and the impression it gave me was that it was something very high up.

Between 11:30 am and 12:30 pm 12/29/21 I viewed an ovalish shaped object moving at a high rate of speed, moving east to the west several hundred feet below the ridge top on the hills directly across from my location. The sun was out and I caught site of its reflection when it was a little to the right of being directly across from me, it was around half the size of a car and at the speed it was traveling it only took 10-15 seconds to disappear to the west. Seemed to be pretty close to the north hills as it moved in a straight line of travel east to west. I’ve been thinking about this all day, trying to make sense of what I saw, it was clearly some kind of self propelled craft? It happened so fast I had no time to get a camera.

Sun City Center, FL
I was taking a nightly walk through an empty construction yard right next to my house to help clear my mind before i head in for the night when i saw this massive disk floating above one of the partially completed houses. It wasn’t moving too much, just floating up and down and at first i thought it was just a weird satellite dish but when i got a better angle it was floating a bit above the houses. I got freaked out and booked it away back home and when i looked back it was still there, looking out my window now, however, I can’t see it anymore.

We saw a UFO that was bright orange flying north. It was incredibly bright almost like it was a fireball. It did not seem round though. As it passed us heading north it was flying low and fast; though not space ship fast. Then a second one appeared on the same path and looked identical. I have never seen a flying object this bright or this orange.

I initially noted a very bright light in the sky that I have never seen before on my commute home. It was unclear how high it was in the sky and I first thought maybe it was a light on a tower. As i drove closer to where it seemed to be, I realized that it was moving in the sky. I ultimately got to a point where I could see that the light was actually on a craft of some kind and I ended up driving "under" it. I was looking up at it so intently that I worried that I would not be able to continue to drive appropriately, so I pulled off the road into a small parking lot so that I could get a better look. The craft was shaped like a 3-armed boomerang, with blinking lights on the ends. It was moving slowly and quietly in the sky and I finally lost sight of it when it moved away.

Upon getting out my car after making groceries. I let my son out of the car and started to get my groceries out of my car in the parking lot. My 3 year old son said " look mommy ", and pointed at the sky. This mysterious light or UFO was flying over house and flying across the sky in circles around our house . It did at one point look like it turn a slightest green color but it was really quick. I can't explain exactly what it is until you look at the video and decipher what it looks like to you.

I was driving east of Colorado Springs between 5-5:30 and noticed and extremely bright, what appeared to be circular object in the western sky which appears to be directly over NORAD. I continued to drive south and then west for over 20 minutes and the object didn’t move at all. Just hovered. As I started driving more west I could barely see some sort of elongation on the object and a faint glow of bluish lights. As I continued west the clouds obscured any further view of it.

11year old on back deck, snow and purple sky, he notices a large object hovering over him (the size of a room) and it was spinning (following his movements). Parent came out to see and it shrunk in size, according to child. Adult and child saw it move directly above about 100 feet up and darted by 100 feet to the left (west) and hovered. Went in house immediately. Child looked out periodically to see object. 1rst check...He spotted it at the end of the yard, North to the tree line, 2nd check seen back near the deck with a long slender human black silhouette on top of a round black disk. 3rd look and moved from deck to tree line, again shape shifting on the way, into a dragon like form that dissipated. Police called to investigate, no footsteps or evidence of anyone or anything around. Dog did not react, in house. NO SOUND, BLACK as a black hole

The morning at dawn on December 28, 2021 I was looking at my ring camera videos and went back around 1am and while I’m reviewing I spotted something going up from the back side away from the home across from me. Near the area in the video is bunch of trees in the spot my ring camera shown the light of something going up to the sky. There isn’t any nearby airport from the direction in my camera. Also on December 30, 2021 at 4:11am something a little smaller going up in a different direction from the camera. I don’t think it’s a shooting star because they fly across the sky, it can’t be a rocket going up because I don’t live near an army base. Don’t have Palm beach international airport near by where I live and still wouldn’t be able to see anything going up from their tarmac. I don’t think it’s anyone popping fireworks because it was 1:42am and no one live inside the forest that is in the back in that direction. Please let me know what you think and Thank you in advance!

When I saw the three objects in the video I opened FlightAware to see if it was possibly a plane and none were in that direction. I also checked to see if there were any Launches from Cape Canaveral.

Looked up in the sky to see what thought was a huge falling star, but it was falling vertically and never burnt out. It seemed to be of a green color vs a bright white.

After dinner, I had sat down on my couch to turn my television on and heard a noise that sounded like a “train” coming through. When it got closer, I had jumped up to look out my window because in that time frame I’m in a panic with how obnoxiously loud the sound was, as if something were about to crash on the side of my apt building. When I looked outside my sliding glass doors, there was a large circular object with a range of 15-30 different colorful lights that were in a round shape. Very close in range to my apt. Within feet above the tree that is across the street from me. When it had left, it came back but seemed to make its way back in the shape of a V. When I went to open my camera, my phone froze. I later realized that the photo taken from my phone had partially caught the object on camera (although blurry) still very visible.

Objects appeared to be flying low and at an unnatural rate of speed. They made no sound and glowed brighter as they flew over. One object from the rear of the formation on the right side of the right formation my left rotated with the lead object. When the object rotated it got brighter and the lead object that rotated to the rear of the formation dimmed down. I can not determine exact size or shape of crafts. I can say that the objects appeared to fly low because of their size. Size compared to that of a vehicle. Best I can explain it was like watching a boat approaching the shore line being level with your eyes and then flying overhead then disappearing from field of view. We see planes flying south west from Nashville all the time at about causing altitude so they should have seen these objects on radar.

On December 26th, at 5:46 PM, me and my family saw what appeared to be an extremely bright star in the sky. However, I watch the stars every night and hadn’t noticed this one before. The light we saw appeared to pulse every few seconds and didn’t move from its spot in the sky for nearly fifteen minutes. I took a video of it to prove it wasn’t moving as well as several strange pictures. In one picture, there is a clear object with two rings and in another, a string of what looks like lightning. We live next to an airfield and see dozens of planes, jets, and helicopters every day so we knew this unmoving, bright object wasn’t any of those things. At 6:00 PM, a plane began to fly in the direction of the craft and in response, the UAP started to slowly back up until it was completely out of sight. My family and I watched as it disappeared behind some houses and the plane flew by. I didn’t manage to get a picture of the plane, but I did get one last photo of the UFO before it was gone. In the photo you can see how much lower it was and that it was moving away.

The oval shaped object was about six to seven times the size of the two triangular dark gray objects. The three objects were pretty much stationary to my wife and I for roughly ten seconds as we drove east bound on 94 toward Detroit. We had time enough to ask each other "are you seeing what I'm seeing?" I then asked her to reach for her phone which was in her purse located on the floor of the passenger side front seat. Unfortunately we did not get a chance to video this. When she searched for her phone, one of the darker objects changed shape within a split second, a long dark gray beam or tube "shot" down to the ground then bowed toward the oval object and broke apart all within a second or two... Then everything disappeared. I have drawing of what we witnessed. I would have to believe others seen this event, for it was light out and there had to be at least 15 to 20 vehicles on the 94 (heading eastbound and westbound) that should have seen the same thing we did. No lighting was seen. The triangular objects were odd looking, almost like cloud shaped, but triangular and dark gray.

On a crystal clear blue day after Christmas, I was driving with windows and sunroof down or open. While driving south on S Dale Mabry Highway, I approached the major east west intersection of Gandy Boulevard, slowing to a stop just passed the overpass of the Crosstown Expressway. While stopped with radio off, I noticed an object in my periphery. I looked up to see an extremely bright cigar shaped object. My initial thought was that it was a Soviet MiG from the Korean Conflict era. It had a red marking near the front. Although it made no sound, I didn’t think much of it for the half second I saw this object flying roughly 3,000 to 5,000 feet above head. Not the most unusual thing to see a jet flying considering we have a major military base, an international airport, a neighboring St Petersburg Airport, and several small airports, like Peter Knight, in the area. It moved over the my sunroof view and I refocused on the stop light. I picked it up again as it flew forward towards the South, towards the Military base, Macdill Air Force Base. I watched as this once very very bright object was now a darker circular shape, almost as if I was looking at the tail end of a tube or cigar. Saw zero vapor trail. No engine illumination of any kind. It flew an arced flight pattern from left to right, “checking out”. As it faded from my field of view, a series of intense bright flashes, akin to sparklers, appeared behind the object as it was some 20 miles away. After sparkling for a 1/4 second to 1/2 second, a massive portal opened up. It was the most incredible sight I’ve ever seen. A rectangular(ish) shaped window or portal. It must have been 100-200 times the size of the craft. The “portal” displayed a greenish, pinkish nebulae of sorts, like slow waves, like ripples. The portal closed a 1/4 to 1/2 second later. The sky seemed completely unaffected. Like nothing ever happened. Here and gone in roughly seconds. I was completely jaw dropped. I could sense that cars around me were moving forward and I noticed that a black pickup truck with tinted windows, directly in front of me, was also parked on his brakes, seemingly as shocked. We both eventually drove away with traffic. I had never witnessed a UFO until 12/26/2021. The entire observation lasted roughly seven seconds. I can’t explain what I’ve seen but I’m not embarrassed or ashamed to report this. I will swear on a Bible, under oath, that these were the facts as I observed them on 12/26/2021 at 10:24 a.m. Regards, Marcello Bessone

There was a strange green craft that flew across the sky going as quick as a shooting star, but it was way bigger. In addition, it was green, and it disappeared just as fast like it blew out.

I saw what I took to be an airliner with the kind of red light you'd expect to see on the fuselage. It was headed south. It was lower than normal for flights to and from Dulles Airport 65 miles to the East, I looked up expecting to hear the sound of the jets but there was none. The craft then turned to the West and as it did it changed configuration from what I thought was an airliner into a formation of 20 or so round disks. The formation was kind of like a triangle with one of the disks spearheading the pattern. It was a tightly held formation. They all stayed together going in one direction. The disks were silver in color but also appeared to be opaque as if you could look through them, but not quite. The disks then disappeared into the atmosphere. They did not soar upward in doing so. I questioned what I had seen or what I thought I saw and even now am unsure I saw what I saw. I saw the craft through the small branches of a tree. I was on one side of the branches and the craft was on the other, so whatever I saw or thought I saw was not visually right in front of me, but rather something I saw off in the distance. I am not claiming it was a UFO. I'm not sure what I saw. There were no other aircraft in the area when I saw this. I am not asking to be contacted by an investigator but if one does that's fine.
