Saw 3 crafts in triangle formation that rotated clockwise as a unit while simultaneously moving forward through the air. Two of the three crafts made a gap to allow for what looked like another craft that was late for the party apparently. Once the fourth craft converged with the others, all for continues to move in a clockwise rotating formation and then they disappeared behind the trees I drove down the road less than .25 of a mile and was able to fill and photograph the only one remaining.

TAMPA, FL
From backyard of home, 3 adults and 2 children witnessed fireball type object swiftly moving horizontally, south to north, around 55 degree over the horizon, remaining in view for approximately 1 minute. Object was glowing a bright orange-red color and had no tail. It appeared to be on fire, and not a flickering type of fire, but intensely blazing. We watched object until it went out of view. Video was taken but quality is poor.

Fort Myers beach, FL
There was an orange ball floating over the water and then began moving east towards the land and crossing that barrier. Moving in an uneven direction, bouncing back and forth. After about a minute of being on land, four or five more orbs started dancing around circling each other. I have videos

5 round (4 flame orange, 1 red) orb fast moving objects traveling from SE to N/NW in the sky from around 12:30 - 12:45 am 1/1/2021. One (red) sat just above the tree line in the N sky until they all passed & then it went away. Each one followed the exact same direct straight path. Bright orbs moving very fast & high in a N to NW direction. It was during all the fireworks of the New Years celebrations.

Over the course of a half hour, just after celebrating the new year, my family and I were shocked to see an orange fireball floating high above my neighborhood. After viewing it for a short period of time (2 minutes or less), the orb flew off. We thought this was weird, but possibly connected to the fireworks going on around us. We then were even more surprised when it appeared that there was another orange fireball-like orb floating in a similar spot. Over the course of a half hour, we saw over 20 of these orbs slowly float above our street, speed up, and disappear into the sky. The orbs were simply a ball of fire, and were extremely bright and high up in the sky.

I noticed a red light approaching that slowly dimmed as it got closer. I thought it was a satellite, as my father and I often go satellite watching. I called him over to take a look at it. We watched the object make an overhead approach, and as it got closer to the moon overhead, my father noted it was moving awfully fast to be a satellite. It passed in front of the moon, and that was when we saw a round object silhouetted by the moonlight. The object flew straight at a level altitude, headed toward the direction of MacDill AFB. It was round, presumably gray in color (hard to tell as it was midnight/new years), with a red light rotating around it. I'm unsure whether there was one or two red lights moving around it, but I believe there were two red lights rotating around it. It made no noise. Since it was New Years, my father was slightly drunk. I was not drunk. We both saw the object very clearly. I was on video call with my girlfriend, showing her the fireworks. She did not witness the object, however she did witness our reaction to seeing the object.

I took video of the fireworks spectacle in my neighborhood at the stroke of midnight on nye 2021. I observed a light ascend from the trees and I thought it was a Roman Candle but it kept ascending and travel horizontally before going off in the distance. I don't believe it was a Chinese Lantern but it could have been a drone, although it was very bright and fast to be a drone. I have video of this at the following link: https://tv.gab.com/channel/voteforrustyin2022/view/light-in-the-sky-at-the-602024551bc3aa7876a6ce5d

Orlando, FL
On 12/31/2020 at approximately 06:37 UTC (01:37 local/EST) I was in vicinity of the approach lights of Runway 35R at KMCO (this is shortly North-West of Lake Nona) when as I looked to the West I saw movement directly above me. What I observed was a triangular shaped aircraft flying on an approximate heading of 090, at a very high speed. The trailing edges of the object were illuminated in a neon green and they appeared to flicker similar to the way an NE-2 neon lamp or high pressure sodium street lamp flickers when you move your eyes as you look at it. It looked very similar to the triangular shaped highlighters many of us had in school, where each corner of the triangle was a different color marker tip. The object appeared to be flying above or in a 5500' cloud deck (per the ATIS) and it covered perhaps 1/2-1/3 of my observable sky in under a second. I would estimate the object's speed to be approximately 300-500kt., it was well above the speed one might observe a typical commercial or GA aircraft upon departure. There was no sound or overpressure associated with this object and since I am unsure the height I am unable to determine the size of the object. It appeared about as big as a man's hand when viewed at arm's length, but again I am unsure of the size of the object.

I heard a swishing sound coming from our side of my home . I went to investigate looking up and down the block and saw nothing . It was when I turn around to go back in side I saw very clear these 5 possible 6 glowing green lights in the sky. It was a very clear night with a full moon. Luckily I went outside with my new iPhone 12 decided to take a picture you can clearly see all five objects and then two three seconds later I took a second picture. At that point the objects spin away at a very rapid speed east towards the ocean. To the naked eye the objects look like around a uniform disk. Upon examining my photographs I can actually see that they had some type of sweep back wings. Similar to horsefly. At first I thought it they were drowns. But drowns have blinking lights usually red white. They had neither they just glowed a emerald green color I have pictures. You could see their change in position in the photographs to prove that they were moving.

On 12/28/2020 at 2:45 pm, it was a bright and sunny day with no clouds in the sky. I was walking outside in my neighborhood that has a lot of pine trees, and when I came to an incline with a clearing of trees that exposed the sky, I looked up and noticed 3 distinct bright white round objects arranged in a straight line moving west. As I continued walking, I noticed that the 3 objects began to move around each other as you would move shells in a shell game. They slowed down, almost stopping, then formed a perfect triangle. This is when I tried to take a video, which I got for a second or so until a tree branch obscured my view. As I moved to an opening to keep watching, the 3 triangular objects merged into 1 oblong object that was now moving in the opposite direction (east). The object kept moving eastward as one oblong object. There was a passenger airplane in the vicinity, that was distinctly and obviously an airplane, unlike these 3 objects that moved, sl! owed, changed shape and direction. I watched the object(s) for about 5 minutes, then kept walking, while they were still present.

While waiting to go on duty, I noticed what appeared to be a flare coming from the north in the vicinity of Cape Canaveral. At first I thought it may have been a rocket launch then I realized it was heading in a south westerly direction when all rocket launches always go east toward the ocean. I started recording on my iPhone it appeared first as I said a large flare then it seem to be two points of white light then back into a flare in a circular shape. It continued in a south westerly direction at approximately 2 to 4000 feet speed I guess 100 to 150 miles an hour similar to a small plane. It made no sound and there were no navigation lights it was close enough that if it was a aircraft it would have made a sound. After I shot the video I showed it to a fellow officer and as I was showing him another one appeared somewhat Stationæry and then headed in Westerly direction.Just to clarify I work security midnight shift patrolling.

Me and my wife was out headed west towards Cypress Point beach in Tampa to view and photograph sights of the Jupiter moon. While on our way we happened to snap a shot of the skyline while driving (and without looking up) and proceeded to head towards the beach to view the bright orange moon. However, It wasn’t until we got back home before finding out that there was something else in the air in the photo/video. The good thing about the picture is that it was snapped on the IPhone live shot; so it’s actually a short video. •From the looks of the picture/video: the object is disc shaped with a small red orb leading it• We did not witness this with our own two eyes, we only happen to snap the shot and seen it on our photo.

I submitted my report a couple years back and my picture was not attached. I’ve emailed (2-3 times) and even spoke to someone on the hotline and was informed to resubmit my report so that you can attach the photo to my report. Thank you

This is a true account or may god punish me. On December 21 2020 I was invited by the son of a high ranking freemason to attend a viewing party for the great conjunction aka the "star of Bethlehem." Shortly after sunset our group was in the backyard waiting for some prime stargazing. About 45 minutes after sunset a huge fireball fell in an arc towards earth and since it was the end of a mayan cycle we were unsure if this was the end of our world. There was no danger however when we looked back up there was a huge rectangular prism hovering above us that was only illuminated in a haze by the lights from our surface. It was composed on the outside of triangular crossbars and it did not move in the slightest. It was the length of many football fields so that we could not see the end in either direction but we could observe its' width which occupied ~1/10 of the observable sky. ~2 minutes after the craft appeared a black helicopter appeared and was hovering directly above our group so low that the trees were swaying and it persisted for ~3 minutes thereafter. The homeowner's cat is normally very calm but it was showing signs of extreme distress. The craft persisted for ~1 hour before floating upwards and disappearing.

Stared at a plant that was supposed to be visible. After 10 or more minutes it started to move extremely fast. At that point I recorded it moving on my phone and had my friends wife come see it to make sure we were not crazy

I saw a UFO over the Gulf of Mexico off of Dunedin, FL that looks like the one that the F-18s were chasing on the History Channel. My neighbor, who is a retired Lt Fire Fighter says that he and his family saw one just like it on their farm when he was younger and it flew the same way. It just disappears and reappears nearby numerous times then glows and disappears permanently.

The two balls of light in the sky would disappear together, and seperate, going from disappearing to dim to super bright. Bottom one would go really small to really big. The bottom one was also brighter. There has been an abnormal amount of planes in the sky, before, and as this occured.
