At roughly 20 minutes pass midnight on May 28th I observed an object traveling at very high speed fly at an arc several hundred feet from the ground and go out of my line of sight. The speed was similar to a jet making quick maneuvers at low altitude. The object was mostly a blue flash glowing bright, but the center looked more of a solid object. There was also no sound made by the object.

Salem, OR
I live in NE Salem OR near the 45th parallel and for the last few weeks have observed orbs in the sky mostly after 9-9:30 pm and even in daylight if there are clouds present. I witness tem in every direction of the sky someimes flashing a light here and there and zig zagging in and out of the clouds individually and in groups. It is currently 12:30 am PST and to the West I see a larger orb lighted steadily releasing many tiny orbs that fly off in various directions and others flying with or around the larger orb which is mostly stationary or moving slowly. Mostly I see the smaller orbs each night. As mentioned I witness them in every direction and all hours of the night. I have attempted to video these sightings and not as successful as I would like. I have only reported these experiences on your website but thinking I should perhaps report to a news agency or law enforcement. I don’t want to be thought of as goofy and absolutely 100% certain what I am seeing is abnormal, unidentified aerial phenomenon and uncertain if these spherical beings/objects are friendly or threatening. I believe they are intelligent. They can appear and vanish suddenly. They often camouflage in the clouds and act as if they are harvesting energy from them as I witness them more ofyen when it is somewhat stormy. This larger orb releasing multiples is out in the open sky at this time. I have witnessed them moving about quite slowly and also with remarkable speed. I am amazed by these experiences and also somewhat frightened. I live alone and so I witness these events by myself. Every time I ask a neighbor to share the experience they behave as if I am losing my mind. I indeed am not. I will continue to report my sightings and this is my third report. I would like an investigator to contact me and in the mean time I will continue to obtain other witnesses and/or proof. Thank you.

When the craft first appeared, it had two lights on top blinking and a red light on bottom. Another craft flew directly in front of it, right past it; at that point it changed shape. A red light or ball then came from beneath, and went towards the right. Shortly thereafter, another craft like device appeared. We were going towards San Diego in a vehicle I was in the backseat, it was to the left of my window. I have multiple videos and still pictures.

Sandy, UT
It was 10:20 at night going down a little cottonwood canyon on a bicycle in Sandy Utah. We were in the area behind Albion Middle School that's forested on a good view. We looked up and were immediately taken back by what appeared to both of us "a large object" to be a very large skinny object. I quoted after that that thing had to be a mile or too long. I can't remember now because the moment has passed at the time however I was very convinced that there was an object in the sky between 2500 and 20,000 ft in the air. The object went across the sky very quickly appearing to be thousands of miles an hour consistent with the SpaceX satellite. Although after it went overhead it vanished within 2 seconds every single light just absolutely disappeared. I find that strange because SpaceX satellites I imagine wouldn't just vanish and you can clearly see them vanishing at the last second or two of the video. Within probably 5 seconds of the video ending The! video is exactly 1 minute long because that's the maximum Snapchat limit. In the video footage the biggest inconsistency with anything rational is at the 8 second mark there is a large flash that would have to be huge if it was in space right next to this formation. The odds of an object re-entering the atmosphere and looking like the way it does on film seems very small. So I checked for potential rational explanations as to what I have seen and filmed and they are saying that there was SpaceX satellites over salt lake City around the time we saw it. I am basically looking for a rational explanation to what that light is at the 8 second mark. Even though I may or may not have seen something more. I uploaded the video to YouTube because I didn't know where else to put it So there it is thank you for your time please look at what I'm looking at and see if you can explain it. https://youtu.be/wrshMqQ7Q9w

just after 22:00 hrs.(3) bright white round lights about 2x the brightest star, appeared in the SW at about 55-60 degrees above the horizon and moving in a straight line at high speed toward the N-NE. the lights were about 6" apart at arms length and remained at equal distance to each other, there was no sound, as the formation exited my range of vision, a 4th light appeared in the SW at the same point the previous (3) had appeared, it was identical and followed the same path and speed. This was not even remotely like Star Link.

came out of the South West 3 white solid spheres. complete synchronicity from speed to separation.(gave me the feeling it was one object,reason I'm not sure how many I saw)no sound.to low low to b a satellite.30 seconds to cover the entire sky south west to the north east. 3 to five seconds later another solid white sphere on the same trajectory followed behind. I've never seen something make it across the sky that fast. it was very exciting.

Three separate bright white lights spotted on a relatively clear and quiet night. One following behind the other, traveling due east. Why it was unusual and caught our attention is that they were extremely high in the sky, at first mistaken for stars. The lights were the size of a large star seen in the sky this night. The lights were steady, not flashing. They were traveling quite fast as compared to the very visible planes passing nearby, and they flew in a synchronized line. They made no sound.

Took my dog out and noticed a straight line of white lights in the sky moving toward the southeast. I would estimate at least a dozen lights or more. The light appeared slightly wavy. I would describe it as if it were a plane pulling a banner of white lights, but I could see no plane, heard no sound, and the lights stayed in formation. It gradually faded into the southeast over the course of just a few minutes. It did not appear to be traveling fast and was not very high in the sky. I was a clear night, but I could not make out the outline of any craft.

At approximately 9:30pm we were sitting, as a family, on the porch overlooking the ocean. I looked up to see in the clear night sky, just overtop of the adjacent ocean front home, a single triangle shaped, light orange object a few hundred yards away. It was alone briefly before being joined by another, then another and so on until there were 4. My wife and 2 adult sons then saw the objects. Then they “disappeared” without any discernible sound (although the waves were fairly loud). While we were debating what we saw my son noticed that just off shore there was an amazing spectacle taking place with what appeared to be many separate white lights twinkling off and on- back and forth with other groups. Above them appeared to be either a solid, very large triangular object or perhaps some that were in a triangle formation. This continued for some time in the southern sky while a cargo ship was not too far away ( for perspective on the distance from shore- the objects were about as far out as the ship which was just to the east) and what appears to be commercial airline flights which allowed us to estimate the objects were now at around 3-4K ft. As the display continued we could hear what we knew was a military jet coming from the east up the beach towards us. The jet came by just overhead and slightly off shore at a little higher altitude than the objects which were flashing white rapidly among each other and underneath the triangle object. The jet stayed ! straight following the beach and did not attempt to fly towards or engage - or not that we could tell. Then abruptly- it ended and they were gone.My oldest son and I walked onto the beach in hopes of seeing more and at around 10pm the 4 orange colored craft reappeared several hundred yards off shore at what appeared to be 1,000 feet or so above the surface. They “glowed” in unison for a brief moment and then they were gone. We are all professional people. Don’t subscribe to belief in space aliens etc. We took video and when we zoom in it appears at least one craft resembles the “tic tac” shaped object we have seen on the news. We heard no sound aside from the jet. The objects movement in the sky was erratic at times and at other times it moved precisely and smoothly and slowly. This is the truth as we experienced it. We are considering video and drawing images of what was seen. The incident took place at West Beach Dr and 23rd St Oak Island NC. The craft were in the southern sky at approximately 227 degrees SW.

Went outside for a short walk which I usually do around the same time each night, looked up and at about 1 O'clock position in the night sky clear as can be was an lit object with bright blinking lites that went from clear bright white to a ruby red color (but mostly white). I was able to use my phone to video it but the video does not do it justice in it's appearance, it was much clearer seeing it live. The thing that impressed me most was it's ability to be so still in the sky like it was just pinned up there in the sky pretty amazing. And when it did move it did so in that typical UFO zig zag motion. I called some news agencies but none of them took it serious enough I suppose but I also posted the video using my brothers youtube account. I used his account for a few reasons but the main one was because earlier that day (God's honest truth) I had visited his grave sight he passed in 2017. Not sure what that has to do with the sighting but that's how it ha! ppened. here's the link to the video... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8e1zjLnry1k&t=41s

Alpharetta, GA
Date: 05/27/21 Time: 06:46 AM Location: Cogburn Road Park, 12825 Cogburn Road, Alpharetta, GA 30004 U.S.A. Direction: East Conditions: Clear sunrise, with light cloud canopy Circumstance: While capturing a photograph of the sunrise with an iPhone 12 a small white light was captured near the center of the photograph. At the time, the phenomenon was not directly observed by me. Rather, when I looked at the photographs, (6 were taken), I noticed an odd white light in the image and zoomed into the photo to see what it was. Each of the 6 photos show a slightly different image of the phenomenon. The raw image photographs were transferred to a computer and further examined at high resolution. The point of light turned out to be a series of lights forming a partial circle around a center light. No visible object around the lights can be observed. Also, there are approximately 7 lights arranged in two pairs, around a center with another light along the circumference, and another light showing movement away from the concentric circle cluster. Evidence: Six iPhone photographs captured in Apple’s “RAW” HEIC camera mode which can be processed and saved as JPG, PNG, TIF, or other file formats. Note, the camera RAW image is an unprocessed file and therefore, provides the most accurate image capture of the object. RAW Image Size: 4032 x 3024, 8Bit, RGB, 72ppi. Capture Time: 1. 05/27/21 06:46:32 AM 2. 05/27/21 06:46:34 AM 3. 05/27/21 06:46:55 AM 4. 05/27/21 06:46:57 AM 5. 05/27/21 06:46:58 AM 6. 05/27/21 06:47:00 AM Photographic Submission: Each of the photographs will be submitted in full and with an enlarged section centered on the unidentified object in JPG format as requested.

Around 2:35am at the Jets Park in West Scranton, Pennsylvania, next door to the Kane's Warehouse me and a friend saw a yellow rectangle with a small and thin but very bright trail touched down nearby and shortly after we saw a tall 8 or 9 foot figure with very large white eyes standing about 30 feet from us. It was hidden behind a few trees but it growled and right after a spotlight with a low humming sound hit us and maybe scanned us and we ran out of the field near the school where me and my friend were enjoying ourselves (my friend had a drink in him, I was sober). It was very sudden and abrupt and wasn't able to take any video or pictures.

I was driving home from vacation in New York City, and when we got home, there were dogs howling loudly and crickets chirping aggressively. I then saw a yellow-white flash in the sky, and it hovered for about 30 seconds. It made a loop-the-loop and then flew straight up, and then began to fly forward. The farther it got away, the brighter the light. It stayed in the sky for about 2 minutes and then disappeared. When it disappeared, the noise stopped. I was 100% sober (I like to smoke weed since it is legal in Michigan) and didn't know what the hell happened.

I was standing out in my yard doing photography for my business, I look towards the east and about at 10,000ft was fast moving object that looked like brown sphere coming from the south at a high rate of speed heading north. My initial attempt was too rule out Buzzers that we do have here in Florida but they usually circle in thermal vents during the daytime. but this object was heading north in straight direction. Twenty minutes later the same object is coming from the north heading south. I literally ran to catch up with it in order to see the direction it was going, it was probably traveling faster than any commercial jet, there was no sonic boom, no air radiating off the craft as you would see any fighter jet when it breaks the sound barrier

On the evening of May 27, while I was photographing the ‘Buffalo Bridge’ in Georgetown to enter in the Georgetowner summer photo contest, I noticed unusual activity in the sky in the picture I took. The phenomena are evident in the still photos I took. I would like to show them to you. At the begging was a dot change to like a line of light moving from the east to northeast. The picture was at the evening I was there also on the 25 of may but the night of the 27 of May I went again during the evening and capture the event on still photos. I have diferentes time at the same location. May, 27 (4) four photos call my attention was take by the second per second during the night June, 5 (4) four photos clear sky you don’t see it nothing but once you enlarge the photo you can see the objects. I took a photo by the second.

Hartland, MI
Standing in a parking lot in Hartland, MI on May 26, 2021 at approximately 9:55pm. Myself and my partner were looking up at the night sky, stargazing. Suddenly we both look to the west, about 60 degrees up from the horizon, and there is a long band of light, with what appears to be multiple light sources along the band. This band of light was a straight line. The band moved from direct west to southwest, before dimming and entirely disappearing. It did not move at incredible speed. At first I thought it may be a plane's landing lights shining on clouds, but there were no blinking or colored lights visible and cloud cover was extremely light, and the dimming and eventual disappearance does not add up to me.

My husband just barely left the house. He called me to tell me hurry up and look outside there's the UFO. I threw my shoes on grabbed a jacket and my phone. As soon as I went outside I seen a string of lights floating through the sky. It looked to be all the same formation, object, it looked to be all in the same line as to be one vehicle. I pulled out my phone and recorded I think 5 seconds before it disappeared in the sky.
