San Francisco, CA
Past September I was taking 10:00am coffee break at my balcony and enjoying the view of the San Francisco. All of a sudden two lines appeared on top of the fog bank which is hanging over the Brisbane hills. I grabbed my binocular to see what that might be. I was soo shocked to see it wasn’t bird or anything that I can identify with. This two black long rectangle shaped objects was hanging up in the air with no attachment to the ground or any propulsion system that I can see. It was so black but being in creative business, I have never seen this kind of black. It almost looked empty space but flat. It had no depth at the edges or any reflection. It also had some glistening space in between. They were slanted in parallel formation but one on the right was lower than the other almost the thickness of the objects. It seemed they were 4-5 miles away from me. It gave me the feeling of they were big very big. All of a sudden they just disappeared. They were GONE! This whole thing lasted about 3 minutes. It is unfortunate that I picked up my binocular instead of my camera. A month passed and I can not stop thinking of what I have experienced. Each and every time I get goose bumps when I thought about it. So I decided to reconstruct what I have seen before images fades away from my mind. This staged photo illustrates what I have seen. I did bunch of web search but didn’t come up with anything. I hope this reaches someone who experienced the same.

Over a couple of days a strange green light kept appearing in the sky. Found it weird it was the same spot that I previously seen a UAP a year ago from this incident. My brother and I were in contact about it for 2-3 days, about a strange light in the sky. He live about a mile or two away from me. Seeing the similar thing. On the second or third day I took a picture of it. In the photo it came out blue, but in reality it was green. Maybe has something to do with the phone lens.

Every night I have these that stay above not house. Some hover and some actually fly around with red and green and blue lights flashing. I have videos that I take every night if them. I have a video if the one that flew extremely close enough to get an amazing video with red, green,bluish, and white lights. They are so bright even when they are above my house. I am not sure where it who to send the videos to but I have also been in contact with MUFON as well as Darby Ranch. Please guide me on what I should do or how do I find out what to do because my health is being affected by this. Please tell me who would be interested in seeing this

We seen three lights moving in fast formations above the apartment across from us. They were at first in a straight line but very quickly moved into a triangle formation. They were moving very fast in perfect formation of a triangle. The triangle was spinning in a circle but staying in unison almost perfectly from what we could tell. Then the lights went dim until my camera could not register them and the night sky went black and about two minutes ago they reappeared as I'm typing this . There's no way a plane or helicopter could move like what I seen . I have a short video too but it isn't very clear. The light just went out out of nowhere one at a time . Idk how to explain it .

When driving home with my husband and daughter in the evening (it was dark), in the eastern sky we saw a quick, bright flash in the shape of a rectangle. This happened three times. The rectangle had two distinct lines -- one at the top and one at the bottom, and the middle almost looked like the aurora borealis and something from the Matrix combined.

Went outside to watch the space station go overhead saw a dot in the south southeast sky from Waterville Maine. Looked at it through the binoculars could not see a craft just saw lights. Multi-colored flashing. Red, green, yellow, blue and red maybe if you other colors mixed in. It was hard to see with the 10x42 binoculars but it stayed in one spot for over a half an hour and did not move horizontally or vertically.

Ufo 9/20/2021 6:13pm. I went outside facing east to answer a phone call. I saw a white crescent shaped ufo hovering slowly east/southeast. Watched it get slowly further away for about 10-15 minutes. It had to have been higher than 30,000 feet.

I was walking near the local mall with my friend and we were going to our favorite smoke spot when I looked in the sky and thought the sky was pretty so I took a picture so I could draw it later which isn’t uncommon since I’m an artist. Later that night after I was sober I noticed a white glowing saucer shaped object in the sky in that picture. It wasn’t a lense flare, drone, plane, bird, or helicopter and when zoomed in it looked suspiciously like one of the hundreds of other ufo pictures. I’m curious as to what this thing I accidentally caught while walking to go and smoke was.

At 2:58am my wife and I heard a loud noise above our house as if an aircraft were traveling towards Sanford Maine. The noise was very loud and constant, not like normal air traffic. I got up and looked out the window and there was a triangle UFO with 3 white lights at each point and a very red middle light. The aircraft, in my opinion was a TR3B style aircraft. It was moving at a normal rate of speed at a leveled altitude. The sound lingered even when out of sight.

As I look to my right I first seen a glimpse of something red and white flash that was round and my friends seen it I thought was maybe a shooting star cuz it was in the tree line and the horizon of the dark pitch black night sky it's just a glimpse then 20 minutes after what appeared when I was fishing DirecTV of my fishing pole in the sky look to be a ball of lights that had a red type of light inside of it very very bright I was thinking maybe radio tower but as I looked to my surprise it was rising up away from the horizon in the air and then stopped and then continue to move left and pulsating motion in a thrust motion as it burst left it kind of hesitated and went back and then burst again to it was out of sight as I yelled my friends seeing the same thing and it did the same thing it did like a flip or a spinning motion as it pulsated then as we're packing up about 10 minutes later it popped out again and as we seen it it crept back into the tree line! and horizon you disappeared and we came to the conclusion as the previous thing we seen with the same thing and as we witness this it seemed to be spying on us and some manner

I was laying on a chair on my porch and watching the stars. I noticed a dark, triangular shaped object in the sky with round white lights. It was traveling at a steady pace and flew past my house. There was an airplane in the sky as well, but this object was many times bigger.

McCall, ID
On Saturday, September 19, 2021 a group of four individuals were driving on the East side of the Payette Lake in McCall, Idaho. We entered the Ponderosa State Park (East side of the lake) and drove to the boat ramp in an attempt to capture some scenic photos of the lake. One of the persons is a professional photographer. The four of us took some photos of various parts of the lake and of ourselves. I walked out to the end of the boat dock and took a picture of the lake (looking west), using my IPhone. Two other individuals walked toward me at the end of the dock. I then took a picture of them. They walked out to the end of the dock and the professional photographer began taking various photographs. As she was taking pictures of the horizon (looking West across the lake), I noticed spots near the sun. They appeared white (almost like holes) and at first there was only one and then I noticed several (perhap 6-8) small white dots in the distance across! the lake next to the sun. The clouds behind them were dark so it was clear to me there was something there. They were in no particular pattern, but they appeared to be close together (clustering). I asked the other two if they saw the dots and one of them did see the dots. She attempted to zoom in with her high powered camera to see if she could identify the objects, with negative results. I proceeded to tell them that i thought, based on the oddness of the dots that i thought they were aliens (ufos). I then told them how Idaho, particularly the McCall area had quite a bit of ufo activity. I saw the dots for a brief period of time (estimated at 10-20 seconds). I then proceeded to take more pictures across the lake (West) to catch the sunset off the water. I took 3 picture seconds apart. According to my IPhone camera these were all taken at 19:15. We left the dock and took a few more pictures of various areas and then left the area to continue up through the scenic! byway. We had no other events of this nature during the rema! inder of our drive. At some point that evening I began looking through my pictures on my IPhone. When I reached the 3 shot sequence , the first shot looked normal with no dots (shot at 19:15). In the second shot I noticed a small spec across the lake amongst the tree line on the left side. Note: one of my friends had accidently put her hand in the picture, which forced me to take a third shot approximately 5-8 seconds after the second shot. Upon looking at the third picture I noticed the dot had now moved quite a ways above the tree line (still on the left side). I went back to the first picture and there was no dot. So I went to the second photo (with the dot in the treeline) and zoomed in on the dot and noted a green object that appeared disk like and unrecognizable, it was tipped to the bottom right. I then went to the third picture (above the treeline) and noted a much clearer object that was green and appeared to have a solid "A" shape triangle in the middle (triangle with no bott! om) and a halo of green surrounding it. It too was slightly tipped to the right. It appeared to be large, as compared with the trees it was double in size. Also, based on the distance of the shot the "dot" could be seen by the human eye, but not bright, green, or moving, which raised no awareness at the time the picture was taken. I might add none of us saw anything out of the ordinary at the time (other than the previous event i have mentioned. There was perhaps 1-2 minutes between the white dot sighting (first paragraph) and when the 3 series photo's were shot. With that said, these were the only pictures any of us took of the objects after checking all photo's. I did not report the event at the time, since we were out of town. I am a 57 year old female who has been married 31 years (my husband was with us) and have one daughter. I am recently retired (July 2020) and worked over 30 years in casino industry in Las Vegas as a Vice President and General Manager of various casinos. We moved from Las Vegas Nevada to Boise Idaho in July 2020 to be closer to our daughter. My husband and I travel quite extensively and were taking a road trip to McCall with some high school friends of mine visiting from St Louis, Missouri (both females). They are sisters and one of them owns and is President of a computer company (and a professional photographer) and the other worked for a pharmaceutical company for over 30 years. Since the event I am certain that this object was not a drone, airplane, rocket, natural event, reflection, or house lights and believe based on the 'white dot" sighting and the picture evidence it is a UFO.

My husband went out to put the ducks away and I thought I heard someone yelling, but wasn’t sure, so I went to check on him, and when I got outside I saw a blazing light sort of jittering and dancing around high in the sky. It quickly looped upwards and then back down and then disappeared. It changed direction and moved so quickly. My husband said he saw it change color. You can see the Philadelphia Airport in the opposite direction. This was not a plane or a drone or a meteor.

On the evening of 09/19/21, while watching tv I witnessed a small white tictac shaped craft, with either a red dot on the back or a red light, flying south east through a window above my television. The object was small, roughly the size of a large, thermal water flask, and was flying at a fairly slow rate of speed, maybe 20mph. When it caught my attention I immediately stood up to get a better look, and although the craft disappeared from view, I witnessed what looked like white fireworks, originally being fired off horizontally from right to left, and then eventually being fired straight down. I moved to my backyard to get a better view, and continued to witness these bursts of moving light being fired straight down for roughly the next 2-3 minutes, before they stopped, with no trace of the craft or evidence of things being fired off in the area.

Sitting at a left-hand front window seat on a scheduled B737 United flight from EWR to MIA around 13:45 local time. Shortly after departure, whilst tracking South South-West and climbing through approx. 15,000 ft, I was gazing at the terrain of the Wharton State Forest, NJ when I saw a light-colored orange disk traveling from south to north at an extremely fast, constant velocity and low altitude (perhaps 50 to 500 ft above ground level). In my field of view, it traversed the window from one side to the other within 2 seconds. It’s difficult to estimate, but I would say the disk was approx. 100ft in diameter. Shortly after the sighting, I saw a few general aviation aircraft flying in the area. Knowing they cruise at approx. 2nm per minute, they were extremely slow-moving compared to the orange disk. This helped validate the unusual speed of the object. For the record, I am an Airline pilot with 17 years’ experience flying turboprops and wide-body jets in all but one continent. This is the second UFO sighting I have witnessed. The first being over the Siberian Plateau in 2013 from the flight deck of a B777.

My boyfriend and I hiking the Quinebaug Trail in Plainfield Connecticut and I took a picture of the sun rays coming through the trees on the trail on September 19th,9:41am at latitude, longitude location 41.666, -71.861. When I looked at the picture the next day I could see a funny shaped (teardrop?) purple lighting in the center of the rays and it looked like an alien head inside the shape.

This is not a joke or a hoax. I did nothing to this picture besides making it look clearer. We have examined the photo, and the purple patch of light looks to us to be possibly a lens flare. We do not believe it is an alien spacecraft. PD

I do not know if it was a satellite or what it was. I took several videos and stills from the video. Looked light a bright twinkling start. It is round with big white lights all around. Way up with the stars. You can see heat coming off it in the stills. I have seen it three times now. Just thinking its a satellite but never have seen anything like this. Thank you

This is one of many that we seen. We went to look at the Hubble one night and seen this ball of light that was very close and no noise moving rapidly and changing direction. It was much closer than this. It would seeming get brighter and strobe very bright while darting about then vanished. Over the next few nights we seen this similar thing but further away. I have a few of this. Multiple of us witnessed. Haven’t seen anything similar since. However I have seen many things over the years. But nothing quite like this
