Saw a bright object that had a bright light that was low and moving. This was during darkness so I couldn't see what shape it was or color.

Seattle, WA
I was looking out my living room window and noticed two lights I thought may have been aircraft. After a couple of minutes I felt somewhat confident that these were not regular aircraft. It was dark and relatively clear out. I noticed t them at first because of where their location and secondly because of their bright greenish glow without typical blinking running lights. My view is looking west over the south of downtown Seattle area toward west Seattle. There are many aircraft in the area because of Sea-Tac, Boeing field, King County airport, and the medical emergency helicopters. The two UFOs caught my attention because they were flying over what I estimate possibly the Bremerton area which is not really part of the local flight path and for their flight pattern. I believe they were meandering in what looked like more northern direction when I first noticed them. Then one or both seemed to change direction and eventually cross paths one above the other as! shown in the video, which is also unusual. I got my camera as soon as determined them to be unusual. I had a trouble getting them in focus. The entire time they flew slowly and they didn’t seem to be on a linear path. They simply disappeared. They looked rather large but it’s difficult to determine their size and their location. Their altitude looked to be at or around the altitude of a helicopter or other low flying aircraft. The closer hill in the video is west Seattle, using that as a reference I would estimate them somewhere in the Bremerton area or possible further west, and their size to be at least the size of a helicopter if not lager. Obviously at this distance and being in a major metro area there were no other qualities to the sighing such as sound, smell, heat, etc. No exhaust was noticeable. The light they emitted did have a very interesting glow without glare. The color was at first a pleasant bright off-white and seemed to take on a more green hue. The red! lights seen on the video were too small to see with the naked! eye. I am not certain these are UFOs but if they seemed to be unconventional aircraft.

Watch a large stationary craft for about one hour. It would get brighter then dimmer. It appeared to have lights around it changing colors, mostly yellow and white then all blue at one point. A smaller orb light appeared under and to the right of the large object it moved quickly up and down then left. An airplane flew a ways under the craft. The airplane was lower and was tiny compared to the other object. An hour later another triangle shaped craft appeared farther away. It had 3 distinct lights on the back. Have pic, not high quality. Have photos and vids. Not that good of quality, but do show the object.

I saw what I thought was to be a satellite but it was accompanied by 2 more lights really close and I thought that was strange. The 3 I saw were then being followed by several more after I watched for a second. After the other few showed up, the first 2 got into what looked like a straight line formation all heading from west to East at the same equal distance apart from each other. I counted 11 and then started to freak out. After a few more kept going by I started counting again and realized I just counted over 20 lights all traveling together.

Centralia, WA
19:10 Sunday night I saw what looked like a bright planet in the sky. I assessed the brightness of other objects in the sky because this looked too bright. I checked to see if it was moving and found it was stationary. I had to run an errand so dismissed it. Upon returning I looked again and found it was gone which wasn't right if it were a planet. I surveyed the sky and saw a bright light due west of my location, moving toward me I thought until I realized it was growing smaller and actually moving up and away from me in a straight launch angle in a west southwest vector until it left the atmosphere, I assume. It disappeared in a matter of seconds. It was completely silent throughout the observation.

UFO 02/02/2020 6:15 pm My husband noticed a strange light in the sky and called me outside. It was dark, clear sky, no clouds, half moon or so. It was coming from the Southwest very slow. I could not see any sort of craft just very bright light. I saw a red orb appear for a second and then disappear. It stayed in the same general area for about 40 minutes. Our neighbor came outside with his spotting scope. It looked, well, it wasn’t a drone. It had a ring of yellow lights around the edge but they were moving, fluctuating, like the surface of the sun, and the center had a grid of blue purple lights. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get a picture through the scope. It moved westward, which I didn’t see as I was running home from the neighbors. Then it slowly moved back to the Southwest. We watched it slowly moved further away for an hour. It was a blip in the distance and started flashing different colors. I took the video with my iPhone X. I apologize for the expletives. Any sudden movement in the vide! o is mine. It just bobbed up and down and side to side.

I was driving down a back road out here and all the sudden on my left driver side I saw up in the sky a BRIGHT light MOVING very FAST and in one direction...at first I thought..OH shooting star..then I realized it was UNDER the clouds...it was very fast and a bright WHITEISH blue... COULDN'T see the shape because everything was blocked by the light it gave off..I got a good look so I know it wasn't a man made craft or a shooting star..so that leaves one option...UFO... BEINGS NOT FROM HERE!!

Deming, WA
My son and I had just pulled into our driveway at 6:35. I shutoff the truck and stepped out. My son was staring at the sky which was really clear. I looked straight up and in the sky full of stars I seen a large isosulese triangle and it was moving across the sky horizontally over head. It was moving fairly quick with what looked like stars evenly spaced behind it like it was towing them. They were all in a straight line as I looked the line of lights was almost horizon to horizon. I counted 50 or so and then there was a set of two in the line that were ofset almost like a tail ruter. The direction of travel was from sw to ne and lasted ten mins. I even made my mother come look to make sure we weren't seeing things.

Shoreline, WA
I live in Shoreline, Washington, (North of Seattle). I’m married with one child, he’s 4. I am a career Journey-person in Machine Repair. I have a solid foundation in sights in the sky as I am an avid sky watcher, but mainly for aircraft and when weather is clear, stars, satellites and the I.S.S.. I work for Boeing in the 737 MAX factory down in Renton, yes, it’s a tough time….I’m not here to discus MAX issues, all apologies. But what I and my family witnessed tonight, I have to get out there. Full disclosure: I am a believer in life outside of humanity, the universe is too big to believe otherwise. I also have had 2 prior UAP sightings. One, in Michigan driving south on 127 from Lansing to Jackson, was significant (to me) as I witnessed a bright light pulsating between green and blue, watched for several minutes then it accelerated to, what I can only estimate, about 1,800 to 2,100 MPH at maybe a 70-80 degree angle perpendicular to the horizon. It was interesting. I texted my future wife and told her “I saw a UFO”. She was and is a skeptic. I’m ok with that. Fast forward 9 years to tonight, January 28th, 2020. Look, I am being so talkative because I want you and everyone to know I’m just a normal guy who loves RC crawlers, airplanes/spacecraft, the stars…maybe I’m trying to hard. I don’t know. Either way, here was the sighting from tonight: I went out to take the trash out. Normal Tuesday night routine. As always, if I get a chance to look up I do. I have seen our (Boeing’s) 747 Dream Lifter lining up to land at Paine Field in Everett WA 4 times now since we moved to the Seattle area, and it’s a beautiful bird! Anyway tonight it is partly cloudy, I notice the clouds are fairly fast moving, traversing to the north at many MPH. Fast enough that it makes the stars breaking through look as if they are moving to the South. As I stated before I have seen satellites and the I.S.S. and am familiar with civilian passenger aircraft flying at 40,000 (or so) feet…they have navigation beacons and strobe lights to identify direction of travel and weather they are above or below you. But what I saw next baffled me at first. I saw a satellite. I “knew” this because the “dot”/“point of light” was larger than a star and traversing on a west to east trajectory. I “knew” it was a satellite for about 2-3 seconds, it went behind a cloud….and then another “satellite” appeared in the same spot the other one had from behind a cloud traveling in the same direction. My senses perked up. For the next minute I watched several more “satellites” traverse the same section of sky, some were in loose formation, not military precision type formation, but two offset with one trailing back as if it was part of a delta formation. I thought about trying to take a video or pic with my iPhone but knew this wouldn’t work. Next best option, I ran to the front door and said (with enough “worry” in my voice as I dare) “Babe, can you come look at this? I want you to see it!” My wife, probably thinking the worst: crashed car, somebody in danger….she is a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner after all, she quickly grabbed shoes and cak! e outside. Our son was curious too at the excitement so I picked him up and carried him out. I pointed up and said I saw something flying between the clouds. And to my delight, and with no more suggestive descriptions, the lights kept traversing cloud breaks. I asked my wife, “did you see that?” Wife, “all I see is an airplane” I explained what I saw before alerting her and almost on cue, two more traversed in again, a loose formation, and she said “yea those are really close” At this point I’m really trying hard to NOT use terms like UFO or Aliens!!! Cuz well, skeptics. She knows I know airplanes, she knows I can point out a satellite or the rare ISS transit. I pointed out how the direction the”lights” were traveling was perpendicular to cloud/star travel. Faster. And also no Nav lights…at all. She said “We live close to a military base” She is correct, Whidbey Naval Air base to the West and Louise McChord to the way south. I agreed with her, could be military…. Yet I poin! ted out that the “objects” never came back out from behind the! cloud t hat obscured them. While we were watching, a passenger airliner passed behind that same cloud heading north, Nav lights and all, then reappeared in the same general cloud break we saw the “lights” in. I said “see, that’s an airplane, and it did exactly what it should do, blink and strobe, go behind clouds and cone out on the other side” My son was begging to go back in uninterested, again I was NOT using suggestive language, and my wife said she needed to go to the grocery store before she could get our son to bed so I could sleep as well. While she was gone I went back out to observe. I saw to more airliners traveling north, one more object as the previous but it looked as though it was traveling west to east on a more northern trek. And then about 6-7 minutes later one more “object” that was traveling same direction as the others, but I only saw it briefly. When my wife returned, I didn’t want to freak her out, or if she was, perpetuate the fear. I told her “I know what we saw” she gave me the ‘look’. I said “it wasn’t a UFO” she looked at me and said “no?” “No babe, those were UAP’s” again a question look. “Unidentifiable Aerial Phenomenon, we don’t know WHAT those were” She accepted, to my surprise. Again, I’m not here to spread some outlandish “experience”, I’m a normal dude, father, husband and Precision Machine Repair-person…just wanted to get this down and out there while it was fresh in my mind!

I just got home around 630 pm sky was full of stars and clear and I seen a line of lights equally spaced seemed very high in the sky hard saying altitude but higher than the aircraft that were in the sky the lights were not blinking just steady I first thought it was a satellite they moved fairly fast there about forty or so I guess I did not see a triangle shape prior like the lady in Demimg wa but she describes it like I seen it she must have seen it prior to me but yesterday morning on the 2/18 20 I seen it again but more west in the sky and the time was around 515 am and from what my buddies son say it went on till sunrise because I had to go to work and he rides his bike to school not really sure what it is or what’s going on but it would seem like there is a lot of them object and it covers a lot of area because Demimg is quite a bit north of us I thought maybe someone was projecting lights into the sky but that blows that myth out of the water maybe s! omething with the military who knows

I see 2 orange lights that are stationary. Heavy cloud cover excludes celestial objects, and no houses at this elevation. The sky is rumbling like the sound of jets breaking the sound barrier. The rumbling noise is what made me search the horizon. I have been watching these orange glowing objects for 20 minutes with absolutely no movement. This rules out an aircraft. I’m no expert and I don’t frequent ufo websites, but these things compelled me to find out if anyone else in my area has seen this tonight. It is troubling me. Please confirm if anyone sees and hears what I’m describing. Thanks.

I have these two objects floating above my apartment complex that have been there for several weeks more like two months. They are only seen if you look through my live security camera feed. You cannot see them if you look with your naked eye. At first I thought this was simply a glitch or a pierce of dirt on my window that was in the view of my camera. To rule both the possibility of both objects out of being either dirt or a anomaly in the security feed I had or security provider go in and do some testing of our camera and there systems which evening was fine and they said those two objects are very strange like and they are not produced by anything on the system and your camera is not having any issues they suggested I contact our police and get them to contact the property authorities for further follow-up because they thought perhaps it was UFO'S and them being there in the same spot for weeks, cloaked and just hovering there then probably they are up t! o no good could be monitoring or could be doing tests that's a human population is not aware of it at this time because if they were just floating through then they would not require to be cloaked for so long or stay in the same spot somebody knows something and I should let people know quote and just hovering there then probably they are up to no good could be monitoring or could be doing tests that the human population is not aware of at this time because if they were just floating through then they would not require two be quote for so long or stay in the same spot somebody knows something and I should let people know I thought dang it was person is very open and I'm glad I got that technician because they did not see me as crazy and so I took two photos and they both are seen in the photo. I did try and zoom in to see if I could get a better view on the camera but both objects are blurry and no matter how close you get to them with the zoom they remain blurry. I tried t! o use binoculars and they were blurry but also it looked as if! a field of energy like you would see on those tv episodes of star trak when the enterprise activates the shield you get that energy field well this looks like a similar version but only real and it is blurry and their are even lights that illuminate of and on behind this blurry field it's producing which is even more strange. The object on the right side hovering lower than the left is black kinda half moon shape with these spike things coming out of the top and bottom of this thing and the other object to the left and above looks oval shaped and shall black. I thought perhaps it had a vortex behind it our something cause it's dark in color and I've heard of these things traveling at great speed using a type of hyper jump Assisi again something the sci-fi artist dream up and put in the tv episodes based on space travel we seen on television. Lastly, is like to point out that these objects are just sitting in the sky for weeks even months never moving in the daytime you can see them! fade in and out of the clouds as they pass by aha at night they give of a very dim glow your can definitely tell they are not stars and I have also seen four other objects appear above the left oval shape object they were evenly spaced apart and went in a straight line above one another just sit there for a better part of a day then they were gone but the they never really came fully into view like you see these two they were very faint and a white color. I have enclosed two photos which are the same view but seconds taken seconds apart look just above the roof on the building in view you will see a few tree tops but if you look to the right of the top of the tree extending up from the roof top of to the right of it you will see the moon shaped spiked object and left above that tree the oval shaped one. What does everyone think about this. What could they be doing just sitting there for months now? ,

Carson, WA
We observed a continuous moving, perfectly strait, line of star/satellite sized lights moving south to north a little slower than a commercial airliner flies. They appeared out of sight behind a few trees, then traveled roughly 24 inches across the night sky, then disappeared suddenly into nothing. My girlfriend and I lost count after 40 of these lights, we estimate there were closer to 100. We were completely sober and lucid. We were driving through Gifford Pinchot National Forest looking for new snow camping sights. The lights disappeared completely when a commercial airliner got close.

Issaquah, WA
I was in Issaquah, Washington, standing outside the passenger side of my car, finishing a business phone call. I was in the south parking lot of Gilman Village, a boutique shopping center. The GPS coordinates are 47.538391, -122.040947. My elevation was 108 feet. The time was 3:58 p.m. PST. Cloud cover was about 70 percent. Light snow was falling. A reas of blue sky were scattered around the south and north. The sun was not visible. The temperature was 31 degrees. The wind was from the SW at 7 mph. Near the end of my call I started staring at an area of blue sky in front of me, directly to the south. After maybe 30 seconds I saw the object. I didn’t see it arrive, I just suddenly noticed it. I finished my phone call and looked at my watch - 3:58 pm and 25 seconds. The object was charcoal gray and cigar shaped. There was a very slight bulge in the center, on top and bottom of the object. At arm’s length it was about 9.5 millimeters long. It just hung in the blue sky, motionless. A couple of small clouds drifted past the object, one just above it and one directly at it. When the cloud reached it, the object was inside the cloud for about 3 seconds. A full layer of cloud cover was gradually approaching this area of blue sky. The cloud base was at 2450 feet, so that may be an approximate altitude for the object. According to the log law calculation, at 2450 feet the wind speed was 17 mph and the temperature was about 23 degrees. The object’s direction was directly South of me. I was looking up at it at a 45-degree angle from the horizontal. Paragliders, small planes, hobbyists with drones and bald eagles are frequent sights in Issaquah. The object wasn’t a paraglider - no colorful rectangular parachute and no person hanging in a seat beneath it; it was 23 degrees up there with a 17-mph wind, too cold and windy to paraglide; and it was motionless. It was not a small plane – no wings; no engine sound; and it was motionless. It wasn’t a hobbyist drone –at the apparent size it should have been close enough for me to hear the buzzing whine; a drone would not likely be covered by a cloud at 2450 feet altitude; a drone would not likely be flying while it was snowing; and there would have been visible movement caused by the wind velocity, whether it was a 7 mph or a 17 mph wind. But it was motionless. It was not an eagle – even in warm air with updrafts there is always some movement of the eagle's wings or body; if it was trying to stay aloft with a 17-mph wind hitting it, obvious movement would be necessary, but it was motionless. After about 3 minutes and 20 seconds he object suddenly began to move, traveling to the Southeast. It appeared to move at the low end of the speeds I see single engine propeller planes travel near Issaquah, around 110 mph. It obtained that speed instantly from the moment it moved, no acceleration. It traveled in a perfectly straight line, totally smooth, exactly at the horizontal, no change in altitude. The object headed southeast on a line that would take it barely south of Tiger Mountain, a 3000 foot mountain on the southeast border of Issaquah. The trajectory would have taken it over the Cascades near Snoqualmie Pass, and then over the city of Cle Elum. After the object traveled for about 5 seconds a stand of fir trees blocked my view. I ran to a clear area, but by then the object was gone from my view. I am a trial attorney. I have a bachelor's degree, a master’s degree and a law degree. I have lived in the Seattle area since 1995.

Longview, WA
At roughly 6pm I was driving from southern Oregon to Washington state, and after passing through Portland to Vancouver, wa. I notice a very large light in the sky to the West of me. At first glance I assumed it was an aircrafts headlights, because it was way too bright to be star or Jupiter, and with a heavy overcast there would not be any way for it to be outside our atmosphere. Assuming this was a jets headlights I was waiting for it to turn, but never did. I don't think it was traveling at all, or maybe it was traveling north at the same speed I was, but it seemed to linger in the same location for roughly 25 mins, as I was traveling north at roughly 70 mph... It would sometimes disappear behind the clouds, but then re appear. The light almost looked wider to plane than vertical, and very bright. Other people had to of witnessed it, because it was there so long. This was not a reflection from my window, something very large and bright was either very high altitude and bright, or aircraft altitude and moving parallel speed with me for a long time. The light was almost a vibrant blue white light.

We saw 1-2 lights in the sky up above and traveling the very large mountainess hillside. Before recording I saw a light with a beam going down to the hill. The light then turned from white to red. After this I started recording. Light goes from being low on hillside to above in seconds. Part of video could show a quick potential secondary light. There are two lit up homes that help as stationary markers.

Driving North on interstate 5 this morning between exit 105 and exit 109 my husband and I saw an object with 3 white lights it was pretty low and then it turned sideways like if a plane was to bank to the right accept it kept turning and went upside down and flew like that for a few and then our view was blocked by some trees when we got off the freeway at exit 109 we could no longer see it. It had the three white lights on the back and on red light on the front end. It was really dark out so I am not sure what shape it was, but from what I saw it looked triangular. Pretty weird though, I am sure we were not the only people on interstate 5 to what happened this morning.
