North Myrtle Beach, SC
Last night I witnessed something very, very strange. Around 7:30 p.m. I looked southeasterly out into the night at the ocean and see 3 huge yellow lights forming a slightly obtuse symetrical triangle of the size range of a football field to 2 football fields, lighting up in unison and making no sound or movement then in three or 4 seconds completely disappear in unison. Super big, quiet, suspended perfectly in midair and possibly being a quarter mile to a couple miles away and maybe half that in altitude above sea level. I have never seen anything like it. It was surreal. And then what appeared to me to be a military plane flew in from the south, which I captured on video, right through the airspace of the 3 huge mysterious triangle of lights. Then after it has passed a single light identical to the 3 that formed a triangle suddenly appears (not moving - my camera moves to catch it) for a few seconds, which i also capture on video (yay!!!!) and then disappears. Then it returns in the same spot for a second then disappears again. It wasn’t a drone. It was huge and suspended in the air perfectly like a hummingbird. I was super excited to witness this extraordinary event. Then more (military?) planes fly in and zigzag around the area of the unidentified other worldly lights. Later, while on the phone with Deborah I look out and see them again. I quickly ended the call and tried to video it but wasn’t successful before they disappeared again. Extraordinary. Then later still I was texting with a friend about this and she sends me news clippings of similar sightings in this area. Turns out Myrtle Beach is a UFO hotspot. Yay!!!! This video shows the blinking lights of the plane that flew in after the sighting, then a single UFO light appearing and then vanishing, and then reappearing and vanishing again at the end of video. — in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

At the date and time indicated above I saw a cigar shaped object in the night sky around 7:30 pm. It was fully illuminated in yellow. It moved silently about 45 degrees from the horizon and moving east northeast at about a 15 degree climb. It was only a few seconds that I saw it. No time to grab a camera. It seemed to nose up and then faded out completely and disappeared. It was like nothing I’ve ever seen before. This is in Phoenix AZ, and was over a Sky Harbor Airport flight path, so maybe was caught on radar? I was in the military and recently retired as an engineer. It was not a conventional aircraft, flare, helicopter, meteor, kit. It was a cloudless, clear, still evening and no lightning was present. the object was totally silent, and moved in a deliberate steady trajectory. When it disappeared, the lights seemed to 'dissolve' into nothing. I was in my backyard and just happened to look up and see it. There was no time to grab a camera.

Every night this week a bright light has appeared in the sky by 7 p.m. and disappeared by 7:55 p.m. I originally thought this bright light was a planet at first appearance, but when it disappeared I question otherwise. Every night I went outside and this occurred between 11/29/21-12/2/21. Tonight, when I noticed that incredibly bright light disappear, I looked adjacent to where the light was and saw a cigar shaped light that I filmed for 7 seconds. It was there at least 10 seconds before I figured out how to use my camera and it disappeared as if it faded behind nonexistent clouds in the night sky. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

At first glance, I though it might be a small passenger plane with all of the windows screens open, but there were no other lights (on wings or tail), and it didn't move like a plane. Moved slowly traveling North. I took my phone out to video it and it then went strait up and lights faded away slowly. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Certain]

Duck Creek, UT
I know this is a little older but I hope the data might help. I was heading home evening of December 2nd from just east of Kanab Utah, a little after 6 p.m. I'm not 100% sure on the timing I'm using the timestamp of my photo for the exact moment I realized it was a UFO. Oddly enough though it was this thing was very bright and huge. However absolutely nothing appears in my photo. Anyhow, somewhere around 3 to 5 Mi before Highway 14 headed north on 89 I noticed a green comment. Which really stood out to me because I have red green Vision, most every light in the sky just looks yellow to me. As I came closer to the junction it fell out of my view oh, because of some Knowles, for a moment and I didn't see it again until I was heading west on 14. As I drove up the hill near an area we call Elkridge on the 14. I saw the comet again and it seemed bigger, later I realized I may have witnessed it entering our atmosphere. Anyhow, as I traveled further west on the 14 hi kept looking up at it and it seemed to get larger and larger. As I approached the Duck Creek area traveling around 50 miles an hour it went from a comment do a thick green line. To me it seemed like the size of the object kept increasing. I assumed that meant it was coming down. As I passed through Duck Creek Village I began to notice that it was not a comment. So I started driving a little slower to keep my eye on it. Just west of Duck Creek Village is a little pond. Maybe a hundred yards west of that pond is where I decided to pull over. In fact I was so stunned I believe I stopped in the middle of the road and then a second later realized I had better pull off to the side. My photo may even have GPS coordinates on it I will check. At this point it still seemed very high in the air. So I pulled my camera out, cell phone, and decided I was going to try to get a picture when I looked up to get a picture it seemed as though it had come much further down in altitude and was hovering above me. So I snapped the photo not realizing that my flash was still engaged. I looked at the photo and there was nothing in it so I hurry up turn the flash off reached up with my phone to get another picture, but it was gone. I believe it was heading north. A co-worker told me that his wife saw the same green comment as she was heading back from Richfield and to her it appeared to be over the Panguitch area which is north of where I was at 7:25. She said she saw it at around 9:15. The UFO / object was huge I couldn't even begin to tell you how big. Enormous is all I can say. It was lime green, and very long with what was either a dark colored or black band around it towards the front. Maybe one quarter of the vehicles length behind the front. If that makes sense. I am terrible at writing so if you want better explanation feel free to call. I left my name and number on the hotline. Andy, 435-590-6775. Here in southern Utah is not uncommon to see weird things in the sky. I have several incidences that left me wondering, what the heck was that. But this was the only time I could definitively say I saw the real thing. A UFO. My second youngest brother and I also have a very strange Experience which happened when we were teenagers visiting our uncle in Kanab Utah. I'll keep it brief, about the middle of the day we were stretching with each other. Maybe less than two feet apart. Clear skies and no weather yet a bright orange light enveloped the room we were in. So bright we couldn't see each other. Less than 2 feet apart. My brother was so terrified I did not run outside to see what it was. This experience was around 26 years ago. Don't know if you'd be interested but I wouldn't mind telling about that one too.

First, I looked on line to locate a UFO site to make a report, I became discouraged as the sites I found seemed to be complicated and had their own agenda. A couple of days ago my wife was talking to a friend who is retired from US Navy Intelligence telling my incident and she said look again on line and make a report. So, I located your site. On December 2 2021, 620pm I walked to our community mailbox a few houses from ours and across the street. This is in a northwest direction. Upon getting our mail and walking to return home in a southeast direction I normally look to the south and observe the exisiting planets and stars if visible. This night a couple of planets were visible, I believe Jupiter and Saturn. I then scanned toward the east above the two-story homes and slightly overhead. What caught my eye was an object in this direction (east) appeared to be 6 to 8 white lights in two parallel rows, it is now 624pm (according to the camera phone photo). I stopped to observe the lighted object. I could not tell if this was one object or multiple. As tight as the lights were, I would say one object. Absolutely no sound or blinking lights were observed from this object. I tucked the mail under my left arm, took my phone out with my right hand, activated the phone and snapped a photo which of course it turned out blurry since I had the phone camera in an exposure mode that delayed completion of the photo. I should have activated the video. As this was happening, from the east - northeast we had a very high layer of cloud cover approaching the object. I trotted to the house to get my wife to step out to the back patio and observe this, however the object was gone or hidden by the cloud cover. Total observation time was 1 minute. My wife looked on the site Next Door to see if any reports of lights had been reported, none have been.

There were no lights, there was no trail, no wings, no sound. Just a solid white slender cylinder. It was dark outside and the craft may have been glowing white, or just reflecting the sun from beyond the horizon.

I just got home from work and was getting out of my car when my attention was initially grabbed by a bright shooting star that I saw in my peripheral vision to the north-west. I looked up and saw another unusual light to the south-west which I then turned to look at. It was a big bright cigar-shaped light. It was travelling slowly and steadily in a roughly north-eastern direction. I have lived near an airport for over 30 years and am used to seeing airplanes and drones but it was immediately clear that this was something that I hadn't seen before. It was a thick line of light. It did not blink or change. It made no sound. I stopped what I was doing to look at it. The sky was clear. I pulled out my phone to record a video but later discovered, to my great disappointment, that it was in picture mode instead of video mode so all I got was one blurry photo. The object was very bright and to my eye it appeared larger and had a haze around it, giving it a halo effect, which was not captured in the picture my phone took. Interestingly the picture also captured a second oddly shaped light which I did not notice myself at the time. I estimate that the object was visible for between one and two minutes. It slowly travelled in a straight line. If straight up is 0 degrees then I observed it from about 45 degrees to the south-east until it was about 15 degrees to the north-west, travelling not quite over my head but a bit to the north of me. Then over the span of about 15 seconds the light slowly and steadily faded out. It seemed like an oddly long time for the light to dim. I continued to watch that part of the sky for another minute. The object was big enough that I felt that I should still be able to see it even without the light but it was as if the object itself had faded away. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Possible]

The bright light followed my car for about 10 minutes. After that it was on the side of my car and then disappeared abruptly.. After about 10 minutes it reappeared again in front of my car and stayed in the same position. It was very bright and circular. I got out of my car and took a picture and when I got home and zoomed in you could see that it was man made and there were little circles all around the outside edges edges. I screenshot the zoomed in photo and attached that too . This happened on Highway 260 between Springerville and Pinetop in a dark secluded area near Sunrise Ski Resort.

Cameron, my friend and I were hanging out watching tv when i received a phone call. I stepped out on my balcony to take the call. Leaning out looking over my balcony to the ocean i saw a twinkling light, like a sparkle. I saw one, then two, and then 4 sparkling lights. I yelled to cameron to come bring his phone and start recording as i'd never seen lights like that. As he started recording each sparkling white light turned bright orange one after another in a perfect diamond pattern then disappeared in the same order. No sound and no sight of it again.

Object moved slowly, low in the sky moving south to north. It appeared to be a fireball meteor over downtown Excelsior Springs. The object turned to the east and ascended slowly and when it did, the orange lights were in a triangle shape. 3 points of light glowing orange. Slowly ascended and disappeared and I could hear no sound. I would have flown directly over The Elms hotel and downtown Excelsior Springs so hopefully there are other reports. I saw this at 9:15pm

Lords Valley, PA
We were traveling on Hemlock Farms Road in a community called Hemlock Farms in a town called Lords Valley. The road was going South west. To our left side, we saw an object about a dime's length in size out our driver side window going somewhat faster than the car but not exceedingly so. It was fairly big as far as a signature goes. The sighting began at exactly 7:37 PM as we looked at the dashboard clock. We are seasoned observers and do not submit reports nilly-willy. It eventually pulled very far ahead of us in the course of one to two minutes. It was a triangle. It had all yellow lights. The lights were along the front two lengths of the object. About 4 on each side. And there were at least 4 more lights in what would be the body of the craft behind the before mentioned perimeter lights. It was bright! The object was fairly low so that is why we perceived it as a dime sized object which is fairly large as far as sightings go. No FRA green or red lights. All yellow. Total about 10 to 12 yellow lights. The pattern was like a ike a Christmas tree traveling on its side. It had an inordinate amount of lights on it. It was not perceived by anyone in the car as a normal aircraft. Maximum speed probably under 100 mph based on how fast it gradually pulled ahead of us at our speed of 40 mph. We looked it up on Flightradar24.com. We began the search at 7:15 pm. local time (5 hours earlier than UTC time). There were no aircraft over the location 15 minutes before or prior. Thus, this object did not have a transponder. It was high enough above the radar line that it should show up on flightradar24. Based on our position, and the low perceived altitude, we take a ball park guess that the object was larger than a large heli and smaller than a Boeing 737. Windows closed so we heards no engines. My dad is a UFO Investigator with MUFON . He was with me when I saw this. He agreed it was unusual and told me our area is ripe with UFO reports including triangles this year. Apparently there are corresponding MUFON and NUFORC reports of this type of object in our area in the past 12 months. He is always free to contact. No anonymity required. Thank you! Liam!

Wednesday December 1st, 2021 Occurred around 6:40pm -7:20pm I believe I saw a ufo. Previous experience of seeing something coming strait at me fast while outside this light but it vanished quickly into thin air like it’s crazy. I didn’t think nothing of it. But that’s not why I’m here. I recorded off a voice memo like a voice message as soon as I got back inside after seeing what I saw. I don’t know how to explain it but ima do my best writing it down. First the star I was looking at I knew it wasn’t a star because previously I saw it blinked like a red color & some other color but all I remember was red. But that same “star” had me stuck while I was staring at it. Like it made me feel weightless as if I was levitating. But that’s the thing the more I was looking at the “star” it kept getting closer, and closer and closer. Like spreading out to many dots around it then had sticks on the outside after connecting. It’s weird Ik but that’s what happened. But before I was in like a trance like stuck like daydreaming, all Ik is that it felt like home. Like peace so I teared up a bit I’m not gone lie. Like when ppl die they feel peace that’s what I heard and that what it felt like. Peace, calming. I went back inside the house hurried up n wrote what I saw but I had this overly sensation of a body high like my body was stretching it was so crazy but I felt like I could’ve died. It had me paranoid. And the more I tried to write what I saw it’s like I couldn’t even write like it was so hard to even do it. It’s crazy. So I looked up what to do & then I said ima record what I saw in a voice memo/ message just in case the next day I don’t remember what I saw & felt. I drew this picture of what I saw as well on the paper I written on. Idk if I can send the voice memo as well so I just described it the best I could.

A 7am morning sky was busy with military aircraft & a grand array of contrails as far as my 11 year old daughter's & my eyes could see. Leaving my neighborhood, we spotted a lightning bolt-like imprint from mid-sky to the ground in a field nearby. I parked at a place I knew the view could be vast. At 8 am, as multitudes of jets & US Gov aircraft flew back & forth, a star-like object was seen flitting around. It then got closer & I was able to get several photos. They show an oval-like shape with 3 rectangular lights, but each image looks a bit different. That could be because it was a "lightship" and/or because it was moving so quickly. The skies were busy with jets & planes all day. In my backyard at 8pm, I witnessed what looked like a large dark ship, oval or rounded square, with changing lights, stationed above the horizon. I got in my car in hopes that I would get to it. On my drive, my daughter counted 23 jets. I noticed that the closer I thought I got to the ship, the smaller it became. I originally thought that was because it was moving further away, but then realized that it was also changing locations in the sky. As jets got closer to it, it would quickly move locations, as if in the speed of light. It also seemed to morph into different shapes & the changing colors were brilliant & bright. I am a channel for information and light language between realms or higher dimensions, so this has been exciting for me. Here is video documentation of everything. https://youtu.be/V2iR0UMpWUc

Driving to work I noticed what I thought was an airplane until I noticed no aviation lights, just a pulsating white light like a star. I noticed it between 2 stars before it started moving. It would get very bright then real dim. I slowed down to watch it then noticed it started moving. Very slowly at first, then gaining speed. I started watching as it started to make a couple sharp 90° turns and I knew it wasn't an airplane. It took off very fast then slowed down and done a couple zig zag maneuvers before it stopped. Once it stopped it sat for 2-3 seconds before just disappearing but i never seen it fly off, it just vanished. I didn't have time to get my phone to take any pictures or videos. It was only 1 craft that I noticed. I've never had any experience like this before. I'm an avid stargazer and have no reports of any mental health issues in my family. I'm a healthy 29 year old male with no medical or mental health issues. There has been 1 other UFO sighting in my same small town back in the 1980's that I know of. Very strange sighting and have seen a couple stories of the exact same lights in other places.

First witness spotted three black disks, then they ran and called second witness. When they arrived the second witness spotted a single black disk spinning/revolving as it darted in and out of dark clouds, camouflaging with the sky. Second witness filmed, and quality is not the best but snippets of UAP can be seen in bottom right corner of video, 0:16-0:18 seconds in, next to a small break in the clouds. This sighting spanned about 5 minutes before the UAP quickly went behind clouds for final time. The sky then darkened into nightfall not long after.
