Key West, FL
The UFO we saw was very high in the air, we thought it was a bright star at first. This was a very windy day as Tropical Storm Gamma was passing through, so we are certain this was not a bird or bug - and it was so high in the atmosphere that no creature could survive nor move that fast. The UFO moved lightrning quick in a zigzag from one point to another staying in place for a moment or so at each point of stop, ultimately returning to approximately the original location where we first spotted the it in the dark sky. Then the UFO accelerated up and disappeared out of site, all faster than a blink. We did see a few planes overhead in the sky, I have never seen anything in the sky move like this.

just after turning dark while a tree crew was cutting down a very large tree limb in my back yard that fell from hurricane sally. a triangular craft flew over my back yard. this was strange because at first I thought it was a helicopter from the sound it was mimicking and it flew past us then noticed the craft circling the neighborhood and kept watching it. then it flew directly overhead and could make out the exact triangular design of the craft and it was not a helicopter. when I first noticed it the frontlight was blinking a white light on and off like aa aircraft with two trailing red lights. finally it flew directly over my back yard and I was looking straight up at it maybe three hundred feet high and could make out the exact shape of the craft which was a darrkblack triangle then it left.

My dog woke me up Saturday morning around 5am to go out. While I was out I saw a bright white orb on the horizon. I watched and took video for about 6 minutes. It pulsated and moved several times coming back to hover. It pulsated red a few times. Ultimately ended up hearing a weird bird or Predator sound and went back inside. Very Strange

I saw the craft in the sky from a distance. It caught my attention from the way it was flying. I could tell almost immediately that it wasn’t a plane or helicopter or any other kind of aircraft that you would “normally” see flying in the sky. It was black and disc shaped. It flew across the sky at a normal pace that a helicopter would for example. Then suddenly it just stopped and hovered in place for a moment. Probably 20 to 30 seconds. Then just shut up into the sky at an incredible speed. It parted the clouds on its way up. As I watched it I didn’t blink once, it definitely irked me. Before it shot up, it almost seemed that the craft rotated and then ascended up. But it was so fast I can’t be sure.

I first notice the object flying low in the air towards our direction, as I was driving east on NW 46th St & NW 23rd Ave./NW 23rd Ct., leaving Exchange Beauty supply store with a friend/hairstylist, and the object was flying westward in the air, right above the trees, wires and houses. I noticed it was large, black and initally thought it was a plane getting to low to land, until it slopped down and passed us to our right side, going west on NW 43rd St./NW 23rd Ave., three short blocks over moving extremely slow. As it was heading west towards NW 27th Ave., it started getting lower to where we couldn't see it, then it took back off in the sky westward. ***an Illustration will be submitted separately. - 1 unidentifiable object (a shape I've NEVER seen before, not even on Syfy) - my response: "What the f*** is that!" & "It looks like a f*****' shark!" & "That wasn't a plane!" -my friends response: "It looks like a lizard or something!" & "No, it wasn't a plane." - flew into Miami's Brownsville historical black community on last Friday about 12 noon (est. time) ***note: the president was also in town that day. -no sound, quiet - hugh all black matte flying object (no labeling/writing/signage on it) - it was very big in a sort of round/blimp/long figure, the tip of it was sort of shaped like the end of a ink-pen, looked like 3 layered ridges on the top of a piece sticking out & 3 more layered ridges on the tail of the object & on the right side of the object (as if they were super-short wings on a plane) -Jet black window, no visible doors or openings - moving super super slow, like it was gliding/floating in the air

Steady blinking light became unsteady in pattern. One main light was then suddenly surrounded by several smaller lights. One moment the lights appeared to be circulating in and oval shape, then would disappear and present again in a random pattern. First thoughts were they were balls of lightning or drones. From our viewpoint they were steadily travelling across the southern sky from Auburndale to Lake Wales, FL.

Our back patio faces east, the sighting was south east of us. My mother said “what is that light in the sky” I brushed it off saying probably a plane, but there was no side lights on it for wings and we are not usually on a flight path. It was a round, yellow light traveling vertically. We were staring at it trying to figure out what it was and then it vanished into nothing.

Note: I will put a full detailed description of the craft at the bottom of the report for extra clarity At 10:10-10:15pm on Saturday night (date was 9/19/2020) my best friend and I had just gotten back from getting some food from a local fast food restaurant. We pulled into the driveway and parked my car and had our usual end of the day catching up before getting out. Once we got out of my car I took about five steps and was standing behind his car, which is parked directly to the left of mine, and noticed movement in the sky above me. I looked up and to my shock saw a boomerang shaped craft about 150-200ft off the ground cruising slowly over our house, the wildest thing was that it was completely silent. I could hear crickets chirping and cicadas all around us but not this thing. It was heading towards the southeast. I watched it for a good two seconds before i slapped my friend on the shoulder and told him to “Look at that fucking thing” and he saw it as well, we both watched in complete disbelief for another two seconds before it disappeared behind a tree that’s in a neighbot’s yard behind our house. After me freaking out for a good two minutes I told him to get in the car because we were going to try to follow it since I thought it would be flying towards a specific area that has been known, by my family at least, to be a small hotspot for UFOs/ UAPs. Unfortunately we did not end up seeing it again after we lost sight of it behind the tree. If i had to guess I’d say it turned before we got in the car to try to follow it, I genuinely believe there should be other witnesses to this somewhere in town because of the simple fact that it was flying so low. Description: The craft was boomerang shaped and 25-35ft from wingtip-to-wingtip. It was mostly black but the perimeter of the craft was white with lights(?) that were turned off lining the outside of it. The tree it eventually disappeared behind is probably 75-80ft tall and this thing was NOT far from the top of it at all. It was moving very slow, it’s hard to put a MPH estimate on it but it went from overtop where our pool would be to disappearing behind a tree in about 4.5 seconds.

There was a lightning flash in the sky but as the lightning went away a ball of light remained in the sky for about one minute. Another lightning flash came by and right after it stopped the ball of light disappeared as well.

Look in the night sky a little ways out from the moon there is a weird 3 light that's orange or goldish in color but doesn't look like a star or planet from the naked eye. Its there from dusk to dawn but better seen in the night sky then look directly across in the opposite direction you will see another one like it. It looks like from the naked eye 3 dots in a triangle formation & they arent stars because the stars are a different color visibly & further away than these are. 1 is to the east & 1 is to the south & 1 of the 2 can be seen in the exact same distance from the moon throughout the whole night as the moon travels across the sky? Pictures & videos show the shapes of both change over time throughout the night sky, since Sept 19th 2020 I've seen these in different parts of the sky but in late Oct into November I've seen 1 positioned off from the moon staying in the same position away from the moon traveling with it as the moon goes across the night sk! y when in Sept it was in a different position & the 3 more times after the first time it was in a completely different postion in the eastern sky only in the dawn sky & it looked within the earth's atmosphere too. Not sure about the ones we see in the dusk sky whether they are in space or within earth atmosphere itself. Date started 9/19/2020 to present time. Not a star, planet or satellite or space station last 2 move & these dont move like those 2 do, star & planet look different when photographed & videoed than these do.

I was standing outside of the trailer smoking a cigarette. I heard a helicopter lying around. I walked out from under the overhang of my trailer to look. It seemed to be following something because of the way it was flying. it would go to one spot, stand still for a minute, and then go to another spot. I noticed that it had to be following something flying in that way. I figured that it was chasing a car, but I happen to look up and across in the opposite direction of the helicopter. That is when I saw long cigar shape white or light-colored things flying in the sky. At first, I thought maybe it's Birds. then, I thought of drones but they had to have been huge because they were very high in the sky. They made no noiser. That is when they floated from one side of the Horizon across the sky the other side of the Horizon and just disappeared over the tops of the trees. I was watching while they were in a straight line at first. Then two went instead of one right in front of the other two, but perfect! ly spaced, flew in front of the other two but were offset exactly from the other two. Flying across the sky, they then started going one in front of the other in a diagonal line and they were in perfect format and perfectly in sync with each other. That is when I thought to myself "I'm going to report this."and That's when the helicopter followed them in the same direction. Then, It was over. I heard the helicopter for about 20 minutes longer, I did not see neither the UFOs or the Helicopter.

Went outside with my parents and saw small, orangey glowing orbs in the sky. They moved silently, very quickly across the sky. We live near enough to Kennedy Space Center that I've seen launches all my life--this was nothing like that. No contrails, no noise. Swift and silent, then they vanished. I started taking some video--upon zooming in, they appear to be rotating saucers. A group of maybe about 15 passed by in about 10 minutes. Objects seemed to be clumped in groups of 3, in loose triangle formations. Noticed bad internet connection in the hour prior to the sighting, with dogs in the neighborhood barking as they got closer. Background: all adult household, two in their 60s, one in their 30s. Two Masters degrees between us. No history of hallucinations, drug or alcohol use, or paranormal encounters prior to this.

On September 18, 2020 at approximately 22:10 on my way home from work, I spotted what I initially took as cloud-to-cloud lighting. This time of year, there is a lot of that and rain. It only happened once so I thought nothing of it. A few minutes later, I see it again, but it makes me think it may be plane ‘headlight’. Both occurrences are happening in a southerly direction. As I work at a military facility I, again, did not pay close attention. Upon exiting the facility, I noticed that the ‘headlight’ I had seen minutes before was now more southwest, but moved more like a search light. We had overcast skies and I was not able to spot a helicopter or plane. It now had my attention as I drove, because while it resembled a search/spotlight, the movement was erratic. I hoped to see it again. I was able to spot it again approximately 7-10 minutes later and probably 4 miles from the military facility. The light was still located southwest. I turned into an ! industrial area with less trees and low building to keep it in sight. The light were now more to south again but, even with less light pollution, I was not able to find a ground light source. Spotlights that want you to find a location; I know from experience. There is a ray that radiates up into the sky. There was no ray from the ground. I noticed that the light was radiating, like a lighthouse (I am not on a coast and the direction from which the light was radiating was even more inland) rotating around a center point, but I could see the light all the way around without interruption. The radius of movement was far enough apart it required me to turn my head to follow it. I pulled over and began recording the light. I recorded for approximately two minutes. I began heading home, but thought it would be better to have another witness to the light and contacted a friend I knew would be awake at 22:38. She was able to see the light while we were on the phone and her home is approximately 3 miles from where I was located. She said her roommate had seen the light one his way home from a convenience store. We monitored the lights as I drove. Confirming we were ab! le to see the same lights and the same pattern of movement. The lights were spinning in a clockwise motion, rhythmically, and then it would stop, in an easterly position pause for 2-3 seconds before starting again counterclockwise. It would stop, reverse again, and rotate faster in the clockwise position before returning to the rhythmic spin. We got off the phone so she too could record a video. I had my 15 year old come outside and view the lights when I got home (I live about 8 miles from the military facility; my child’s friend had mentioned the spotlight was visible from her home 9 miles south of our location via a social media forum. I asked if my child was able to see a ray of light from the ground and no, was not visible. Now that I did not have to divide my focus, I watched the light, could see that the light seemed almost flat, and looked high in the sky. It was similar to shining a flat bicycle flashlight at the ground in front of you so the light spreads far and flat. I could see passing puffy clouds, but the light did not appear to penetrate the clouds so the light was not near me, and/or not below the passing clouds. The movement remained the same, but I was not able to record the light, as my battery was too low on my phone. While observing the light it appeared to get thinner, brighter, and/or wider. I was able to see that the cloud density effected the light penetration. The light was definitely coming from the sky and not the ground. There was texture/color variance to the clouds the light had been ‘white’ during most of the event. It appeared a little more yellow when it was brighter, however I do not know if that was because of the clouds or the light itself. The light stoppe! d one more time easterly, before it began to spin again and was gone. I stopped seeing the light at approximately 2300 and it did not return. I did not witness a craft of any kind during this encounter.

It was about September 2020 I was at the water in the Fairfield me and this girl were sitting there talking and all the sudden she interrupts me shock oh my goodness after what the matter is just repeat yourself again and ask for phone but this time I turn around to my surprise is like seven or eight likes spread across Sky evenly spaced out music to connect but there's nothing connecting him in the drifting across the sky at the same speed and not moving any further apart from each other is it getting further away the lights start to line up as I get behind them like I'm not looking at the side anymore im looking from behind the lights turn into only 1 as they align perfectly and suddenly all I saw were stars again because it was using the lights as camouflage

The best way to describe the shape of the object would be analogous of a flying submarine or plausibly a blimp. It was reasonably larger than a submarine but the overall shape is still fairly unique. It was semi translucent with a dark gray or black like color. It stayed very close to or within clouds that surrounded it, possibly resulting in the appearance of being translucent, however exposed portions still seemed to have observable characteristics of cloaking or some other technology to conceal it to some degree. It maintained shape as it was very rigid. It did not transform or alter form like the surrounding clouds. It was completely silent and has no apparent means of propulsion, lift, or other modern flight characteristics. Surrounding clouds were very still yet this object hovered in and out of view, elevated and descended by hundreds of feet, moved south by a few thousand feet, and then disappeared into the clouds and dense mist like clouds. Everything else in the sky was a pure white cloud. I’ve seen very similar objects being reported in the past and two similar object recorded outside the window of airplanes, one recent video and one from the 50s or 60s on standard film. The object was located a few hundred feet east of my house heading southbound.

Naples, FL
Date: 9-7-20 Time: approx. 11:15 am - 11:45 am EDT Location: Naples, FL on the beach Conditions: partly cloudy (cumulus variety), light breeze from W/NW, calm seas As I was sitting on the beach facing west out over the gulf, I noticed a small dark object tracking very linearly from right to left (heading south) over the gulf. At first I thought it was a bird, but saw no indication of wing movement or change of direction. The object passed in front of the cumulus clouds. If I had to scale the object, it appeared compact like a dot, but in the same size grouping as a bird. Still, no detail like wings or change of course. What got my attention was the lack of any "organic" variation in its movement. Just constant speed and linear track. Everything else in the sky (like birds) had variations. Later as I saw large birds against a similar set of clouds, it was quite easy to see their wings and variations in movement. Had the object passed behind the clouds, I would have dismissed it as a plane. I started estimating angles, based upon a 90 degree relationship between the gulf and directly overhead. Bisecting that angle, it appeared that the object was in the 35-40 degrees above the horizon. As for the time I could see it (1 - 2 minutes), I would estimate that it covered a field of 45 - 90 degrees, as it moved right to left (assuming I'm perpendicular to the gulf facing west). I didn't have my phone with me during the sighting, but walked back to the car within the hour. I took a few pictures of similar clouds if I need to get a better estimate on distance and angles. Further, I took video of birds flying just to demonstrate to myself that wings and organic flight behavior are obviously different than what I saw. Was it a drone monitoring crowds on the beach? Possibly. But it seemed too far away. Drones are often closer, and usually show more variation in movement. I've been interested in UFO's since a child. Although I've had unexplained life experiences, I don't recall any remarkable UFO sightings. While the sighting today was oddly out of place, it was certainly not "sensational". I think it will only have meaning if others report similar events en masse.

I was walking my dogs outside. I was walking towards the NW and saw a two red lights (what would be one craft) racing from left to right. I said "Oh my God," as my mind registered what I was seeing was not a plane. The craft stopped when I said "Oh my God," in mid-air and hovered. Then the lights turned green and then it shot straight up and hovered. Then it moved parallel (to the right) to the horizon. Then it hovered and then nose dived down behind the trees. I didn't wait to see if it would come back up as I was terrified. I called my mom on my Apple Watch and had her stay on the phone until I got inside.
