Rancho Mirage, CA
Last Saturday night, May 22, 2021, in Rancho Mirage, California (Palm Springs Desert Area) at 9:44 PM, I was in my backyard, facing 316 degrees North West, standing in the middle of the lawn with my friend. (Please note ~ that my backyard is open with unobstructed views of the sky and it was dark) Then out of nowhere, about thirty miles away, a U shaped group of six white dots were leading a line of three white dots that were spaced exactly apart. Then new white dots kept appearing at the end of the line, one behind the other, from the exact same spot, adding to the line. This white dot line grew to about twenty white dots, some would flare and continued moving North and then disappearing around 344 degrees North. It was almost as if these white dots were being born, like a large dog litter one after another and then getting in line to follow their mother. This sighting took about two minutes total. My friend captured over one minute on his cell phone if ! you'd like to see it.

Observed a string of lights hover in place over San Diego. They appeared to be spaced evenly apart, did not moved, did not flicker, eventually they just disappeared.

It looked like a plane flipping upside down at first. It would glide, then flip over with sporadic bright flashes of LED looking lights (the sun was still shining) that took up half of one side. I saw it flip over again, but this time it was end over end. I couldn't tell what was the top or the bottom. It was in the east sky heading north.

While watering the lawn facing north I observed a long rectangular cluster of different sized orangish orb shapes above my neighbors house.the arrangement of the individual orbs had no real pattern or structure And the sizes were varied but all the same color. It moved together like one object but clearly was comprised of several distinctly seperate orbs.i ran inside to get my phone to take a picture and one by one they disappeared. There are no clouds in the sky. I was a little scared so I called a friend, and while on the phone , in the same area of the sky I saw a line of about 6 small bluish lights following each other. I thought that the small ones could be starling as it looked similar but the website says that starlink is not visible in my location for the next 5 days. When the orbs were disappearing it was as if they were passing behind a wall that wasn’t there, moving forward and just gone.. I don’t know how else to describe it.

I walked out into my back yard and looked up at the sky, looking east. There is nothing obscuring vision here such as trees, buildings, walls, or lights. There was a noticeably bright light in the sky, not directly overhead, but probably at low-flying plane altitude. It was round and white. Not flashing. It was standing still. My first thought was a plane moving towards me, but it was not blinking. It looked brighter than a planet. After around 5 seconds, it slowly moved North and gradually became dimmer until it only looked like a distant star. This went on for about 10 seconds before it disappeared completely. Skywatching is a hobby of mine and I have excellent vision, even at night. I have seen hundreds of planes, and this was not one. There was no visible plane body, nor were there blinking lights. At that altitude, I should have been able to clearly read the words "UPS" or "AMAZON" if it were a plane. If it were at a higher altitude, it would need to be tremendously bright. Even then, planes at ~20,000 still blink. There was actually an airplane nearby at the same time. The plane looked as a normal plane should...with blinking lights and a visible body, making a distant sound as it moved. It was farther away, moving sort of South-West. If I put my hand up to the sky, it was probably about a finger's length below the UFO and slightly to the right of it. It was very easy to see the difference between the crafts. Weird things are seen here quite often and my family and I have reported crafts in this area before. We have photos and video of others, but not this one.

I heard a low flying small airplane flying overhead which caused me to look up. When I looked up I saw a white, round, ball traveling at very high speed from the northwest to the southeast. I observed it for about 10 seconds. Weather was clear blue sky, sunny day. Absolutely positive, object was round with no wings or other appendages.

Orange dim light orb floating in and out of the ocean there was only one orb but me and another couple had stopped to see, it just kept going in and out of the water and wouldn’t move for minutes . It was very dark so we couldn’t really focus clearly on it

Lompoc, CA
On May 18th 2021 I was driving back home from work on HW1 towards Lompoc. I was about a mile from entering the city when I look up to my right into the horizon it was a clear nigth and could see what it appear as a long tail of falling debrie. I could not hear any sound of any kind. At first I thought I was witnessing either a meteorite or space debrie falling. I made a recording of it and mentioned in it that perhaps this was from the Chinese satelite expected to fall. (I did not know that this event had already occurred days earlier). So as I got closer to town I lost the sitting with the city lights now glowing so I decided to make a turn towards the crop fields were is dark to have a better view of the sitting. To my surprise once I stopped on the side of the road and look up; there was a string oof white and orange round lights probably about 12 or more all lined up moving east I began video with my cellphone. I was able to capture some of the lights i! n the distance. Then I noticed that at particular point in an open space on the horizon the lights were entering and disappearing one by one till they were gone this must have last for about 30 seconds. I noticed that as the lights were entering this wormhole or what it ever it was, their shape changed from round to straight like a cigar. Very strange never have I seen anything like this except in the movies but after experiencing this first hand I have to admit there is definitely evidence of something outthere that needs closer examination.

We were facing North(towards Alturas with the Sierra Nevada Mountains to our back). A "string" of 20 to 25 lights, moving from West to East. Fade out in the light wash of High Desert State Prison. This "string" or "train" of lights far to close together to be any kind of flight formation.

Sending cloud coverage photos from last month had to recover from phone from previous report. Qi sucking qualities may be correlated with pollution & or black magic as well but may be a godhead / alien 👽 in the clouds. Climate strike related?

Red orange orb around 25,000 ft coming from the north, sped up and turned towards the east and kept going . The object didn't have navigation lights and emitted zero sound , it stayed the same color the entire time and maintained the same elevation and speed. In the video I tried to signal it with a strobe flashlight, no response. Flight radar screen shot showed no aircraft in the area .

Saw it in western sky about 35 degrees, thought it was a helium party balloon, but noticed it wasn't tumbling, but floating steadily eastward. It passed directly over my head and the building behind me cut off my field of vision as I turned around to watch it. It had no lights, but a whitish oval patch on the belly. There was no wind at ground level. As it passed overhead I was sure it could not be a balloon. It flew straight, silent and steady. It looked as though it was headed in a straight line directly over the town center. I'd be surprised if no one else saw it. Size: like a dime or nickel held at arm's length. Very clear and well defined.

A silent disk went over me, my fiance and my son's head and out over the water of Clear Lake. It was mostly a sphere but a narrow band was around it. It was brightly metallic but had dark shadows on it. There was only one. It went over our heads and across the water, disappearing into the distance. It was moving fast, but I got a good look at it. It was fast, made no sound and it moved with kind of this weird wobble, kind of gently tilting. As it was directly over the water, there was a puff of white cloud or smoke around it which dissipated quickly then it moved very fast and I couldn't see it any more because it was moving into the distance. Even though I saw the saucer clearly over me, it moved fast. when I saw it moving into the distance, eventually it appeared as a single white dot. It seemed to bother the ducks. I am an artist. I can draw this.

My sister her husband and I were viewing the stars last night. At first we thought we were seeing the starlink satellites but they were very far up in the atmosphere. They were sometimes in parallel rows and not in a straight line. They would appear at a certain point and disappear around another point. This went on for over 15 minutes. The sky suddenly became hazy in their flight path. We stayed out quite late but the sky didnt clear back up. Its very concerning because there were so many of them for so long. Where were they going?

My wife and I were camping at Bothe-Napa, sitting around the campfire looking up at the stars off and on. The sky was very clear, and through the tree openings we first spotted a row of orbs (same size as a singular satellite you would see cruising by). There were 8 orbs on the first pass, equally distanced apart from each other moving at the exact same speed from left to right, about 6 to 7 seconds apart from each other. After the 8 orbs passed and brief moment went by before another another row of orbs began traveling along the same path. Each equally distanced from each other and moving at the same speed. We counted 49 orbs in this group. There were many trees so we could not see beginning or end of their travel (this info will come into play later). After another brief moment a third group of orbs appeared only this time they were traveling perfectly perpendicular to the previous groups. Again, each equally distanced and moving at the same speed. At this point I decided I would walk into the road/parking lot area to try and get a better look away from the trees. I asked our camp neighbor if he was seeing them as well. I pointed up and he said yes and took out his phone to record a video, but cell phones are just not powerful enough to see lights in the dark night sky. He said he couldn’t see it on his phone. He seemed much less impressed than myself about what we were seeing and went back to cleaning dishes. Now here is where it gets interesting…As I followed the trail of traveling orbs I noticed that they did not follow the horizon and disappear as a satellite would. Rather, they travelled in a perfectly straight pathway out of the atmosphere, disappearing from sight as they got far enough away. It was something I had never seen before, like something you would see in a sci-fi movie. There were 59 orbs traveling on the third perpendicular run. All in all 116 total orbs spotted by the naked eye. It by far the most unexplainable, bizarre, yet interesting thing I have ever seen. I would be interested to know if others saw what we saw that night.

A single line of lights, first moving from south to north, just above (the big dipper), then the lights re-appeared, this time from west to east. the lights were moving all in a row, no sound, in groups of 2, 4, 5 with spaces between the groups. they were in the sky for only a few minutes, then disappeared, then again in a row west to east direction. I have never seen anything like this before.

On May 7 my dad was outside as he normally gets up to look around at night. He went by my window and called me out to “look at these weird stars”. We always tend observe the sky to see if we see something odd, this time he did. He then showed me what he was looking at and described the lights as “moving stars going in a circle”. I began to notice it was about 3 circular lights that kept moving at a right upward angle across the sky. As we kept watching, the lights had seemed to move at a further distance but you can the were all aligned to a vertical angle. No matter what direction the objects went, they maintained aligned. The lights in the video are shown coming from the left side of the screen next to the palm tree. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Possible]

My wife and I and my mother-in-law were outside and noticed a string of lights not flashing, green and red, approximately 8 miles above the flight path to Oakland and San Jose which is only a 3 mile above sea level flight pattern. The array of lights, which I thought were drones, which were to high to be drones were in a close to pattern like formation. They flew in from the west, disappeared and then two minutes later showed up at a 90 degree angle turning to fly south.. My wife is already finding posts on Facebook about what we witnessed, it’s crazy.

We were at our cabin in the mountains and getting ready to leave. As we approached our car, I noticed in the northern sky, just above the tree line a string of lights flying in a straight line from West to East. They were evenly spaced and all going about the same speed. I would normally think it would be a satellite, but there were so many of them. This "parade" or formation of lights lasted for several minutes, I would say at least 3 minutes. They faded and gradually disappeared as they headed East. There had to be over 100 "lights". Eventually they stopped, but it was a very consistent formation, a straight line of lights all flying across the sky (not falling like a meteor, or space debris) They were too far away to see any shape or color Although I am somewhat skeptical of UFO's, I don't disbelieve. This is definitely the first time I have ever made any type of report. My background: I have a college education, am over 60 yrs old and do not drink alcohol or do drugs.
