Looking out at south east morning sky, I saw a bright white point of light with lit up trailing vapor that was several times the size of the lead point of light. It was moving southwest to northeast in the black morning sky. I was able to take still pictures with my cell phone and a very short few seconds video recording.

Roan Mountain, TN
This was a white fireball with large conical plume of white smoke and charged particles I assume because the air behind it was highly luminus and a foot tall at arms length heading toward the area of Beech Mountain from southeast looked as if it were trying to find a place to make a forced landing.I thought it was a passenger plane on fire and trying to land .God forbid.

Saw something bright or reflective shoot across the sky low enough to be under some low clouds. It was fast. I heard no sound.

It was a low ceiling night. I heard a constant whooshing sound that sounded to get closer and closer. Not until it sounded really close, is when I saw behind the clouds, 3 triangle shaped lights, close together, slowly move above me, stop for about 5 seconds, then rapidly flew away. They were not drones. I have and know what they look and sound like. Fast forward, to April 16, I came across the below article citing almost exactly the same thing I saw. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/04/15/politics/unidentified-aerial-phenomena-defense-department/index.html

One photo has possibly 2 hovering UFOs above the city and another has a different shape & a bigger looking vessel of lights hovering. I'd just like to know what is in our pics.. Very interesting.

On 3/13/21, I was outside in the backyard of our home with my wife, stepson, and a friend of ours. We were splitting and bfirewood into our friends truck when we noticed a group of lights as they became visible while rising from the top of the treeline to the west of us. There were several objects that seemed to be moving slowly, in a loosely formed formation. The objects appeared, to me, to be moving in a northeasterly direction while rising in altitude. After a few minutes of observing, my stepson and friend each began video recording the objects with their cellphones. As the objects seemed to reach a certain altitude or position, they disappeared individually from our sight.

Grand Rapids - Godwin Heights, MI
I was driving on 28th street toward Division Avenue with my young child in her car seat in the back. I was stopped behind several cars moving slowly toward the traffic light at the intersection. Suddenly, I noticed a dark gold/bronze cube flying toward me from the left, directly in view from my driver side window. I was so surprised to see such an object so I rolled my window down to get a better look. I thought it may have been the latest drone technology because there was a blinking red light in the middle of the cube. However as the object neared I did not hear any mechanical drone-like noise. The object made a soft and steady clicking sound, more like a very quiet and slow fan. It came right toward me—at its closest it may have been probably 30-40 feet away although I am not positive about this. I could see what looked like etchings or perhaps symbols of some sort on the cube, and it’s unique color. It was very beautiful and artistic. I thought whomever designed it must have been extremely talented. I wondered what cultural impression may have influenced the object’s design, and I marveled at its movement. I was amazed at how this cube was even airborne—it looked like something very heavy you might expect to see behind glass in a museum exhibit. Apart from the blinking light, it looked like an extremely old and heavy golden bronze ancient artifact. It was transfixing to see, nothing about it made sense. It had no antenna, no wires, strings or other, no visual propulsion mechanism of any kind, no understandable flight pattern or trajectory, no clear front facing steering. This thing turned and soared with ease. It felt intentional in its trajectory. There was no way this was a balloon or anything of the sort. It had no properties akin to something battery powered. At its closest, I could hear it. The sound of it was very soft; a steady, light clicking which would have been inaudible if it hadn’t flown close to my window when I had the window rolled down. There red blinking light was located directly in the center of the side of the cube facing me. The light was a typical, unimpressive blinking red light. I think that was the feature that led me to think of a drone or a highly sophisticated flying tech I was unfamiliar with. If I had to guess it’s size, I would estimate it could have been roughly 22 x 22 x 22, akin to a large moving box. It was a perfect cube shape. I was awestruck by this object and I did not want to lose sight of it, however I had to remain watchful of the cars in front of me so as not to cause a traffic jam. When it was my turn to drive forward, I did so slowly. I was hoping to catch the red light at the upcoming intersection so that I could have a few more seconds to view this flying cube and hopefully capture a video of it on my iPhone. The light turned red and I quickly located my iPhone and scanned the skies to see where the cube had flown to. I knew the object would cross over to the other side of the street so I expected to see it from the middle to right side of my car, and I rolled the passenger side window down immediately. I then caught view of the object but it was soaring fast. Still, while it was smaller and farther away than seconds before, the cube remained very visible to the naked eye. I again remember being struck by its beauty, thinking how creative this object looked for for an airborne flying tech or drone. It was artistic and ancient looking. It reminded me of a graphic design from a popular online game and I wondered if the creator(s) of the object were inspired by it. I didn’t know the name of the game I was thinking of, but I looked it up when I got home (Fortnite). I aimed my phone directly at the object as it was flying over and to the right of my car. I was confident I was capturing some footage of it, but I couldn’t see the object through my phone view, even though I checked to ensure it was pointed directly at the object. I thought my phone camera wasn’t focusing correctly, because I could clearly see the cube when I looked away from my phone view. I had to keep an eye on the stop light so I was only able to get a few seconds of recording before the light turned green. When the light turned green, I drove away slowly at first, looking back and forth to the road and then to my right, until the cube flew off into the horizon and I couldn’t see it any longer. The entire experience lasted seconds to no more than one minute, I believe. Later that evening I was excited to view my recording because I was certain I had captured at least some footage of the cube. However, the video I recorded showed nearly nothing at all. At the time, I was not discouraged. I assumed I would be able to find out what kind of drone or other flying tech this was online. However, my online search yielded no pictures that came close to how this object looked. I assumed surely someone else recorded this object. Even if not during my experience, surely someone somewhere else has seen and managed to record this object. But a search through Reddit and the local news sites yielded nothing. I widened my online search to include basic terms such as “flying cube” or “floating box” and scrolled through dozens of images. The closest likeness I have been able to find were the “black cube” UFO sighting in El Paso. This object looked similar but still with differences. For some background, I first saw unexplainable phenomena starting August 2020 after taking an interest in star gazing. Star gazing led me to a newfound wonder of the universe, eventually leading me down a wild ride into ufology, phenomenon, non-human intelligence, etc. I joined Reddit UFO and phenomena related communities. I became fascinated by the history and the stories people shared. I eventually started casually practicing (secretly) the CE-5 type of meditation and simply opening myself up to the beyond. I was also aware of how many people are treated when they share their experiences. A large number of experiencers were largely dismissed, questioned, ridiculed. Indeed, I had experienced this sort of response myself after trying to share about my own first experience. My husband and parents were more worried about me versus interested in what I had witnessed. So I stopped talking about it, in fear of sounding unstable, being dismissed labeled unwell. As a result, I wasn’t prepared to share anything about my flying gold cube sighting until I could rule out likely explanations for it or at least corroborate it with another source of information or footage. To date, I have yet to find another experience such as this. There has rarely been a week that has passed when I haven’t thought about this stunning object. I have driven that same road multiple times hoping for another clue, wondering if I could ever be so lucky to catch another glimpse of it. I even researched if there were ways to obtain historical traffic camera footage, but this type of footage seems incredibly hard to obtain unless there has been an accident or other legal situation. And even in those circumstances, it appears one would need a court order. I couldn’t find any way for an average citizen to obtain this material without legal involvement. The wonder and awe of seeing this object is unlike anything I have seen or experienced since. While it lasted only seconds, it remains one of the coolest things I have ever witnessed that I have yet to find an explanation for. I am hoping that in sharing my experience, other experiences like it can be identified and reviewed. I would love to find out what this object could have been. I apologize in advance for the grammar and typos. I wanted to send this summary quickly before I change my mind out of worry about sounding silly.

Caroga Lake, NY
Driving home with my son and we began seeing flashing lights in sky. I thought that maybe the flashing was caused by stars going in and out of the tree line at first. When we reached a clearing it was obvious these lights were unknown. There were 2 alternating binking lights with a third blinking more infrequently. They were an Amber color and very erie to see. It was EXTREMELY windy out and these lights were not effected and also silent. I am 100% sure they were not planes, drones, helicopters, stars, sky lanterns. They were UFOs. In the video they look white, but were Amber when seen with naked eye. We chased them for about a mile before they floated out of sight. They were quite low in the sky. Simply amazing.

Durham, NC
While headed to visit a friend off of Kendall Dr. in Durham, NC in March 2021, I approached the stop light and waited in the left turn lane. As I looked ahead a notice a gold tear shape craft falling out of the sky in front of me. The craft was tear shape on the top and the bottom. The craft appeared to be dropping from about 15,000 ft to 10,000 ft to 5,000 ft and remained illuminated bright gold. And just as craft was approaching 2500-1000 ft, the craft would literally disappear from visibility, I looked to my right to see a woman in a car with a guy, and they were pointing up. We all looked in disbelief and shaking heads. I remember feeling a very weird feeling, and that I had never seen anything like this before. The stop light changed and I made the left onto Kendall Dr. I was visibly shaken and shared my experience with my friends and family. I've never been a big UFO person.. But I know what I saw that day. And it changed my life, and my very thought of possibility or something/someone else being out there.

My neighbor called me outside and said something was strange in the night sky, I looked toward the west and a bright light (red at first) was traveling west to east. As it traveled overhead it became less bright and almost dark. When that one disappeared another came from the west exactly like the first. The traveled west to east and dimmed as the went overhead. There was no sound to them, and one actually seemed to go a bit to the left and back the the right, but just a small variation. My neighbor said there was a total of six and I witnessed two myself.

While my wife and I were eating lunch I noticed a triangle of 3 orbs in the sky. I watched for a few seconds to try to ID what I was seeing and then one orb broke formation and then held a different pattern. I knew it was an unknown object at that time so I began filming. What’s weird is the objects flashed out of view and my camera went blurry. I thought I lost them for the rest of the clip but they were moved to the top part of the video. I didn’t move my camera down, they just went upward out of view. You can tell be the clouds in the video. Pretty wild! I’ll send clip to the link provided.

About 3:45 in the morning I came out of my friend's apartment and walked to the parking lot with him as I got into my car I stopped and looked up in the sky and thought what was that I told my friend to look up at that we both started to stare at all but by the sky in front of us was a gigantic white almost glowing rectangle it looked so close like you could almost touch it but yet it was still really far away has it went over us very very silently it seemed that everything around it was completely silent as well couldn't grab my phone couldn't do much of anything just stop and stare it went slowly past us and hasn't went over as it seem to be sunny then as well it kept going from west to east across the night sky and then has it got maybe the 20 yards away from the original point of siding it seemed to Glow really bright and has got brighter and brighter mate's way into two then there were two rectangles going across the sky and then it started to go again, and then it became one again has it got about maybe 50 yards away from there a red light started to emerge from behind it and then that light circled around from the back almost to the front but just kind of in the middle of front and has that light connected to the middle of the front it just vanished

Battle Creek, MI
I was outside my house smoking a cigarette. I was looking at the stars and just admiring how bright they all were shining. Then I noticed one that seemed to be moving and I thought it was just my eyesight at first. I then called my husband and asked him to come look. When he confirmed that he was seeing it, I knew it was real. We were looking East at the first sighting of a rapid moving light form. Then we noticed there was one looking North. I took videos, zoomed in and they looked like those orbs you see when you take a photo, except they were out in the sky not floating around here. There were also multiple lights rapidly moving around these 2 and then disappearing. The craziest thing was these 3 blue lights flying around and I could not see them with my own eyes, but caught them on camera, BUT my husband could see them!! We were so shocked by what we were seeing, never ever in my life have witnessed anything like this. I know this seems crazy, I couldn't! believe it myself! We watched this happen for almost 2 hrs, they would disappear and then come back. Eventually I got really cold, so I can't confirm how long they were in the sky. I wish I was confident to say a UFO. drones, planes, helicopters? That's what everyone keeps telling me. If that were true, it just doesn't make sense on how they looked, how many were there, and why they weren't moving directions.

Bennington/Minneapolis, KS
This is the second sighting within the past ten days or so. My son was coming home from work around the same time as the first sighting. Sighting happened near the same area on I-135 heading from Salina to Minneapolis too give or take a few mile radius. He said this time it was hovering right over the interstate in front of him and he came up on it out of nowhere. He nearly had to slam on his breaks, and if it wouldn't have taken off, he would have hit it. He said it took off extremely fast like last time. If you would have blinked, you'd have missed it it was so fast. Looked exactly the same as before too. When he got home, he realized his phone was nearly dead and it's never close to dying battery wise. We're not sure if it's connected or not. He's started to get worried a bit but this is the normal work hours. As a mother I'm getting concerned too. He is not the type of kid to make up any stories like this at all. It's starting to really concern me. At th! is point, I'm concerned this COULD possibly be a possible UFO abduction attempt. I'm not sure. But as a mother, I'm scared now. I never thought in my wildest dreams I would ever be concerned about anything like this. I haven't been able to sleep at all since it happened the first time. Now I know I won't be able to stop worrying. I'm reporting this on behalf of my son because he's under the age of 18.

Brooklyn, NY
I shot this earlier this year over a park in Brooklyn, NY. I had previously dismissed them as Chinese Lanterns or drones or something, but recent posts regarding ejecta from UAPs has gotten me thinking about 1 particular aspect of this video. Some things to point out/mention: The particular aspect I am referring to is the quick moving (right to left) 3rd light at the start of the video. It's interesting to me in that it start out small and then begins to glow brighter as it travels. Also, if all of these lights are Chinese lanterns, it seems there would need to be a mighty gust of wind over there to shoot one light to the left while the other 2 continue to move to the right at a consistent clip. It appears to me that perhaps the 3rd light could have been ejected from the middle light somehow. Speaking of "third lights", right before I shot this, a fourth light, same size as the first two, split off from the group and also went left (but if had ejected from one of the other lights, I didn't see it). So the little light that shoots left in the video almost seems like it was going toff to wherever that other light went, in a hurry. I watched them long enough to deduce they were definitely not planes. I build and fly FPV racing drones and photography drones like the Mavic Pro with hundreds of hours of flight time so I'm fairly accustomed to observing flying objects both line of sight and FPV and I have a solid grasp on how all manner of drones move in the air...and these don't seem to be that to me, either. In going down the rabbit hole on this subject, there seems to be a common thread of "an orange color" in a lot of mysterious orb sightings, and these are decidedly orange, no? FWIW, around 17 seconds you can hear a kid exclaim that he sees them, too. Just mentioning that to confirm there were others there that saw, and FWIW, it did not seem "normal" at the time.

Orange curves ribbon,(like the ribbon of Star Trek Generations movie.) Going West to East,(following I-90, my own sense of direction.)As it went closer, look it something was behind it, "A plane" but not really sure if there was something bind it. As its going a small V shape cam out on south side of it, no tip, connecting tailing the rest.it faded like everything when its far away.

Dixon, IL
Around 6:50pm : ball of bright light flying what appeared to be downward before disappearing completely right before it looked as if it was going to hit the ground. Wasn’t too far away from us and we didn’t hear any sound of crashing or engine noise. Everything seemed to be silent during and after sighting. We were driving through backroads surrendered by flat corn field land and didn’t see any type of crash. The orb seemed to disappear in thin air. It was a very bright light and seemed to be artificial light and led like. I would say the size of a basketball (maybe a tiny bit bigger). Hard to estimate though because of the speed it was flying at. We almost thought it was a shooting star falling from the sky (because we could see stars that night) but it was much bigger and much brighter. The light was not blinking and was moving in a straight line. It didn’t seem to have any glow to it and it didn’t leave any type of trail of light. It was a solid ball of w! hite light. We didn’t notice it until it came in view from the front windshield. We didn’t notice anything from the rear view or the side windows. This was not a cloudy night as the moon and all stars were visible. It was moving very fast... the actual sighting only happened in about a 3 second time frame. And the technological difficulties for about another 1 - 1 & 1/2 minutes. Although It did feel longer (more like a 10 minute time pass). Right before the sighting the bluetooth in my car cut out and my phone disconnected. It took a couple miles before we were able to reconnect and get the music to play again. That’s never happened before. We take these back roads to Dixon a lot and have never dealt with the bluetooth not working. Our phones also began to not work. We both had no signal for a couple miles before it kicked back in. My friend (the other witnesses) was unable to even unlock her phone. It seemed to have just froze. I was able to unlock my phone but had trouble! using voice text. It was severely misunderstanding what I was! saying. I called my sister after the sighting and she said whenever I was about to explain something the sound would cut off but she could hear me fine with everything else I said. Only when I started to explain what we had saw. I did not feel sick before, during or after the sighting and neither did my friend who was in the car with me. We both did not feel dizzy or any type of tingling. My friend, an alien skeptic, has no explanation for what we saw. Me, a huge alien believer, knows what we saw. It appeared to have technological advances that just are not known to us. It was a “man made” light flying at unbelievable speeds before disappearing right in front of our eyes. And the unexpected technological difficulties made the sighting even more real to us.

We were out photographing the sunset, and came across a strange spherical craft in the background of the photos. I have a series of photos that show the object, and just had time to edit them. I'd be happy to submit them.

Mattawa, WA
At approximately 4:55 a.m. on Thursday, March 11, 2021 I was outside looking at the night sky. It was very dark with bright stars when I saw a long cylinder of bright lights coming from the Southwest headed to the Northeast. At first I thought it was a really bright shooting star, but soon realized it wasn’t. It stayed at a constant slow speed and did not have a tail like a shooting star would. I woke my husband and he saw it as it passed almost over our home, about the height it seemed of a low flying military carrier might. We both described it as a long straight tube with about a dozen circular lights in it. It was not one solid light, there was space between each bright light within the cylinder. Relating it to things we know, it looked like a piece of rope light that was perfectly straight moving through the sky. It lasted around a minute and a half and disappeared over the Northeast horizon .

Looking toward the North east I saw an object that looked like a needle or a lowercase l. Compared to the stars in the sky I would have to say the object was thousands of miles long and did not change shape as it disappeared from my field of view. Instantly made me feel uncomfortable.

While fishing at approx. 2am I observed the above very similar to the green diamond shaped sightings on record,the difference being what I saw were a bright red orange round objects. Interesting is that they seemed to be observing the dam. They seemed to be approx. two hundred yards above the shoreline.
