St. Charles, MO
I am writing to bring to your attention a matter that I have hesitated to discuss due to its unconventional nature. Recently, I noticed that NASA established a team to investigate unidentified anomalous phenomena. We saw a gray alien and one of these interdimensional aliens that were declassified by the FBI in 2020. These two aliens killed our three pets and then has been trying to abduct my daughter over the past 3 years, even in our home in St. Charles, due to lack of response, and has continued to sexually assault her. We can't see it with our naked eye, but saw it one time, and there are two in our home, one shorter and one taller, which I detail below. We have been facing a peculiar situation for over three years, and despite reporting it, no action has been taken. There is one that looked like what the FBI declassified in 2020: https://thelifehacker.org/.../fbi-document-earth-has.../. And the other looked like this: https://www.pbs.org/.../alien-abduction-and-ufos-why-are.../. This alien has been responsible for the unfortunate deaths of all our animals within a span of mere months. It appears to have taken an interest in her when she was working in south-central Missouri, writing and editor of publications for a news network, and followed her home. We've since been horrified by this extraterrestrial, especially after an organization's response telling us there is nothing, we can do about aliens but move homes. We have shared our experience with various individuals in education and officials who study this area. Still, due to the unusual and sensitive nature of the situation, we have received varied and unhelpful responses. We also contacted officials, but they advised us to contact animal control. The alien species emits an electromagnetic field that has caused swelling in our faces and bodies. This alien also started freezing my daughter in place in bed, where it assaulted her for years during COVID-19, when it expressed its kind began studying us. And the ET remains dormant, for reasons we can only imagine, in our home. Before this experience, neither of us believed in the existence of alien life. It has been an incredibly distressing ordeal, compounded by the lack of appropriate channels to report it.

i was smoking with my friend on the roof and the sky was clear, no clouds in sight, and we spotted these lights moving really fast through the sky and then we spotted another one and there were so many, they were faster than helicopters or planes and they were close to the stars so too high up for planes. some of them formed triangles, and some of them were just flying around. some of them had lights blinking red and white and some were still white or still red. we couldn’t identify a shape, they just looked like spheres with lights.

Shoreview, MN
There were faded orange orbs 7 to 10, above the 694 highway 10 feet above the street lights. Hovering. They did not move and did not have a blinker or a true formation. Some were evenly spaced and other random. Thought they may be drones but 7 to 10 and no blinking. I turned on police scanner and no reports. I tried calling Shoreview dispatch and was disconnected. I was driving 65 mph and I didn't appear the other drivers were interested as when I looked up I was all over the road.

Chatham, IL
I arrived at home at 8:15 and looked north over the town of Chatham, Il and saw 8 lights flying low over the city. Not in formation but moving in the same general direction. I took 2 videos and 1 still picture. They appears very bright and orange. And they disappears one at a time as they made their way to the southwest. They did not zip away, but just kind of disappears after a few minutes. One at a time. I called my wife who was inside and had her come out and look. I did not hear any noise associated with them. No rotor noise or anything like that. We were both kind of dumbfounded.

Palatine, IL
I saw a bright white light traveling slowly with no sound from west to east. The object had no blinking lights indicating a conventional airplane. I recorded it for a period to show what I had witnessed. Using a plane tracking app shows no registered aircraft in the vicinity. Looking at the object through binoculars didn’t provide any more detail, the white light was just larger. I can’t say what it was but I know that it wasn’t an drone or an airplane.

Vail (near Tucson), AZ
My son and I were out with the dogs about 7:35 and it was very clear after the rain that moved through. The Milky way was very clear/visible. I was looking for Andromeda (in the wrong spot it turned out) facing north and looking near the zenith when to the left/west of where I was looking a bright light appeared and then accelerated moving the length of my pinky finger held at arms length in a fraction of a second. The glow faded though I could still see the object and it seemed to stop or slowed greatly. Then it flared bright and moved again about the same amount in a similar amount of time. There was no sound. After this second movement, I was able to get my wits about me, to call my son's attention to it. We watched it do this brightening and accelerating, dimming and flaring bright with attendant acceleration and occasionally juking to the north. The juking happened during the dim phase, about every other movement. There was another 6-7 or so evolutions. It then fully disappeared. We both began scanning the sky in all directions and after about a minute or so I saw the object reappear in the vicinity of where I last saw it. It became very bright and zoomed the length of the Santa Catalina mountains in a second or so, from west to east, where it had been moving to the NNW. It became visible near the north, big end of the big dipper in the west. It was gone before I could call my son's attention to it. There was no tail but it was bright enough that time that it left a retinal glow/smear for a few seconds similar to what you'd get from watching a welding arc from across the room. It appeared to be in space and was moving at an apparent rate of speed well in excess of any conventional aircraft. We continued looking and saw several obvious satellites, C130, A10, some commercial air traffic and even a meteor. The meteor moved from south to northwest, moving slower (maybe 1/3 the speed) than the first object(s) we saw, had a tail and sparks with the brightest part being a large flare right before it went dark. Normal stuff. My son called it out and I was able to turn my head and watch it burn out. When the object went from west to east it happened so fast I couldn't call it out before it was essentially gone, therefore my din missed seeing that evolution. During the period of looking we also saw some satellites but then saw 2 additional objects tracking directly North with a red orange color. These did not pulse or juke but they looked very different than satellites, which normally go east to west or on a diagonal NNW to SSE and moving across the sky perhaps 2 times faster. While they did not pulse or flare in brightness, they also did not fade as satellites do and moved approximately 2x as fast They were there traversing the sky one moment, then just disappeared. None of the major planets were in the night sky and I know what they look like. I'm familiar with many aircraft types. These objects moved unlike airplanes I've ever experienced and much faster. Nor were they moving like conventional satellites. I've tracked observed the ISS and the shuttle, even both at the same time on one of the very last shuttle missions. Also witnessed Starlink strings and rocket launches. I lived on the Gulf Coast of Florida and watched shuttle launches at night, traverse the sky. This sighting was very different than any of those things, much brighter and moved at apparent speeds well in excess of what I've witnessed with aviation, satellites, spacecraft, and meteors.

Pewaukee, WI
I was driving north in our subdivision on Millridge Cir, in the Town of Delafield, WI, when I saw a very bright object appear out of an extraordinarily dark-reddish cloud deck above the setting sun. I immediately pulled my vehicle off the road and jumped out to take a picture. I only got one picture but it was a “live” picture on my I-Phone 14 Pro, which has a fairly good resolution. After taking the picture, I looked down to see what I captured and then no longer saw the object. When I got home, just two blocks from where I took the photo, I told my wife I think I just took a picture of a UFO because I thought I saw this object move unlike a plane or helicopter and without any sound. I gave my wife the phone and she immediately zoomed in on the object and exclaimed that it didn’t look like anything she had ever seen flying in the sky When we looked at the “live” picture, the object appeared to make an almost instantaneous V maneuver, dropping and then rising across an unknown distance If the “live” picture accurately captured how the object actually moved and it wasn’t a photo artifact or from me possibly moving, it would defy any traditional plane or helicopter movement pattern or speed. This object appeared to be circular with the upper half grayish and divided by a darker band. The lower half appeared to be a distinctively arranged pattern or grouping of 11 or perhaps more, highly intense lights. I initially thought that this object may have been a mile or possibly more, west of where I took the picture, but the level of detail captured by my I Phone photograph, likely belied my initial estimate of the distance, unless this aerial anomaly was incredibly large. I called a local news station and the county police to report what I saw but the news station showed no interest and the county sheriff said that if the object was no longer there and there was no immediate threat to the community, there was nothing they would do I tried to report this to NASA, but they are evidently only taking reports from military/government employees or pilots

My wife and I observed the white orb for well over a half hour till light clouds obscured our vision. To be quite honest we both believe it matched previous Chinese Spy Balloons. We compared our photos and video to prior observers of the past spy balloons. It was a perfect match. Be aware the object is in approximately center of photos and video, so zoom in. Location out back patio compass showed 255 degree W. 45°22'30" N 84°47'48" W. In one screen recording I took of a video the object moves quickly from left to right.

Pine city, MN
Not starlink. A solo, slow moving, star like object starts moving across the sky. It leaves a faint bluish trail behind it, also stationary star like objects spaced closer together at the start of trail and spaced farther apart towards the end. The only thing that moved was whatever the bright object was that created the trail. Its length was about 3 moons wide. It looked like a straight line of a finished connect the dots picture, due to the faint bluish light that connected each stationary object. I’m not sure if each 8 to 10 objects were a single object or separate because all objects disappeared at the same exact time. Completely different from how they had initially appeared.

I grew up in Westminster, CO since 1982 and saw this same ship in the same spot twice in the 1990s. I have binoculars and now also I use the zoom on my cell phone. Inverted glowing triangle that radiates white blue and pink lights. Hovers still however towards the end of encounter it moved slightly then lifted up into the sky and gone.

White (glowing) UAP orb sighted to the west of KCLE (maybe 5-500) miles away (was unable to determine range), at unknown altitude (maybe 1000-50k feet above ground level) and was motionless for a minute, and then it slowly moved northward and started changing colors from red, to green, blue, purple, violet, and white. The way it changed colors seemed to animate or move around the craft in a projecting manner. Lastly, there seemed to be some kind of movement of smaller particles moving around the craft in an orbiting like fashion, similar to an animation of atomic particles moving around an atom. I also saw another aircraft with it’s strobe, beacon, and NAV lights on, moving towards the UAP. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Possible]

Gulf Shores, AL
At Approximately 8:10 pm, September 12, 2023, my friend and I were on the deck of our vacation beach house in Gulf Shores, Alabama, gazing at the southwest sky over the Gulf of Mexico. Suddenly an orange orb appeared in the sky about the size of a nickel held at arm’s length, so it seemed very close. The orb was very bright but not blinding with no aura or light beaming from it, much like a stoplight. It seemed to blink on like an eye opening. It did not move and was perfectly round. Almost immediately another identical orb blinked on to the left of the first, and then another to its right, all in a straight line and in perfect alignment with each other and none moving. There was no sound. Moments later they all blinked off. Approximately five to 10 minutes after the three orbs disappeared, what looked like a string of lights appeared lower in the sky and to the right of where the first three orbs were. These orbs were much smaller than the first three, all in a line and static in the sky. Like the first three, these orbs did not twinkle, although it appeared that one would go out on one end of the string and another come on at the other end. Immediately after this appearance, another identical string of orbs appeared far to the left of the first string and a bit lower in the sky but approximately the same size. The orbs in these strings were identical in shape and color to the first sighting of three. They remained static in the sky until they disappeared a few seconds after they appeared. There was no sound. The first photo is of the night sky on September 12 from my seated position on the deck. I’ve overlayed the graphic of orbs to provide an illustration of what we saw. On September 14, 2023, my friend and I were once again sitting on the deck and watching the night sky. Due south and far out over the Gulf of Mexico, much farther out than the previous sighting, we saw two orange orbs in a line similar in color and shape to the previous sighting on September 12. One of the orbs blinked out within moments, but my friend got a photo of the second orb. The second and third images are of this orb. The third photo is an enlargement of the second.

My dad was driving on Hartford Road at night to go to a clothing store when I noticed a stationary disk shaped object with white lights placed on the top of the object. I then pulled out my phone and recorded the object staying still in the sky. It then started to move and lost some of its lights shaping a triangle. I believe it may have shape-shifted from a disk with lights on top into a triangle shape with lights at its three corners. The object then flew behind some trees and I was unable to view it.

My wife and I were attending my daughter's soccer game and about halfway through the game, I noticed a strange looking dark object floating over the treeline. It wasn't moving much at first, but after a few seconds it began to move north. My first thought was that it was a mylar balloon, but it didn't go up. It stayed moving horizontally. I pointed it out to my wife and she stared at it for a while and agreed that it was something very unusual. [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Possible]

Afternotice thing when appeared to be a star in the sky. During the daylight, it seemed like there was maybe 2 very close together. Or one with to separate reflective points. That made it easy to see. I assume then with my camera 30 times and I could see that they're definitely was to separate. Reflective spots on it, but it appeared to be changing shape and color with every picture. Usually, it looks silver but then it looked pink that's covered in a reflection of the sunlight I don't know, but it did not move, so it doesn't seem to me to be something using lyft to fly cause it would need to move. Couldn't have been a satellite because again. It was stationary and it was daylight. Strange that it was above a military base. I do also have more pictures than the 4. I'm allowed to upload on this page.

On the evening of 12 September 2023 at approximately 9:37 PM while on the phone with a colleague, I walked around the back of my house and noticed an orange orb in the sky that appeared to be one and a half to 2 miles east north east of my location. It was between the Horizon and the powerlines across the street from my house. The entire sky was overcast except the southwest. The weather showed a 5 mph light wind from the north east. While trying to direct my colleague to its location he was unable to see due to an obstruction behind his house. I was trying to get my camera to focus and take a picture when after 10 seconds it begin to fade and appear to collapse in on its self. While explaining the specifics of what I have just seen, approximately four minutes later it appeared in the exact location that it was. It appeared to start as a small point of light and then expand to its previous size. It stayed the same for approximately 20 seconds then pulsated for 2 to 3 seconds before remaining steady again, then lasted a remaining 10 seconds before collapsing in on itself. I was a bright orange color that did not radiate outside of its spherical boundary. I was able to take two pictures of it on its second appearance.

So almost every night the past 2+ weeks. My guy and myself see this circular/oval object hovering east above Strathmore. We had some binoculars and took a closer look and it definitely has some blinking lights and it hovers left , right, up and down. There is also a smaller circular object that stays near by the bigger circular/oval object. At first we thought maybe a planet, maybe a satellite, but no this is something beyond that! It literally moves left and right . So also just last night I was looking at the object from my bedroom window, maybe about 10 minutes just watching it. And all of a sudden there was a quick flash of light on my front porch. It scared the crap out of me. Mind you I live in the groves with only 1 neighbor and it was definitely not them. I was thinking they are on to me watching them closely . I never was so scared in my life I actually started shaking . Scary. You can contact me for more information. Looking for anyone with a good telescope who wants to investigate. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Possible]

I was about to sleep. Because my apartment is on high floor (28th) it is common to see planes flying. When I noticed this object, my first thought was that it is a star. But then I realized that it was cloudy, and this was quite big for a star. Also there were no stars on the sky (since it was cloudy.) I wasn’t going to give it much attention but then I noticed that this object had slight movement (perhaps rotation) without changing its position. I do not know how long it was there but it was long because I fell asleep. At the next day I noticed a similar object at around 10pm. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Probable]

It looked like a flame had shot up into the sky with various beautiful vibrant colors then after it went up high from the ground it turned into a steady vibrant colored ball in the sky then the object started coming back down camouflaging like the sky this time looking like a huge shadow in the shape of a large disk that looked like a darker color of the sky but waves of vibrant colors surrounded it not letting it fully camouflage. Object then continued to circle around in the sky and eventually flying out of sight .
