Indian River Shores, FL
While waiting to go on duty, I noticed what appeared to be a flare coming from the north in the vicinity of Cape Canaveral. At first I thought it may have been a rocket launch then I realized it was heading in a south westerly direction when all rocket launches always go east toward the ocean. I started recording on my iPhone it appeared first as I said a large flare then it seem to be two points of white light then back into a flare in a circular shape. It continued in a south westerly direction at approximately 2 to 4000 feet speed I guess 100 to 150 miles an hour similar to a small plane. It made no sound and there were no navigation lights it was close enough that if it was a aircraft it would have made a sound. After I shot the video I showed it to a fellow officer and as I was showing him another one appeared somewhat Stationæry and then headed in Westerly direction.Just to clarify I work security midnight shift patrolling.

Object with Red Blinking lights, went flying super fast over the hudson from south to north. It was not unreal fast, but too fast for something flying at that level. I thought it was a fighter jet but it didn't make any sound. I was on the couch looking out the window when I saw it and went to the balcony. The object turned back south and as it came closer I saw a bright beam of light (like xenon headlights of a car, just very big). It went behind a big cloud and I couldnt spot it afterwards. I wouldn't say it was definitely a ufo, but crazy enough for me to report this and try to find out what it was.

Simla, CO
Used stargazing app to rule out planet or star. Observed a stationary, bright, orange-tinged light (as large as a bright star) in eastern sky. It was below and to the right/south of Orion. I observed for several minutes before remarking aloud that it had to be Mars. As I said so it faded and disappeared to black. After about 10 seconds it reappeared slightly higher and to the left/north of where it had been. Remained for about 30 seconds before fading to black again. There was a small cloud in the eastern sky but it was thin and I could still make out Orion in it; this light was brighter than any around it. I could barely make out faint lights beneath it that appeared to be moving. Recorded with iPhone.

Me and my wife was out headed west towards Cypress Point beach in Tampa to view and photograph sights of the Jupiter moon. While on our way we happened to snap a shot of the skyline while driving (and without looking up) and proceeded to head towards the beach to view the bright orange moon. However, It wasn’t until we got back home before finding out that there was something else in the air in the photo/video. The good thing about the picture is that it was snapped on the IPhone live shot; so it’s actually a short video. •From the looks of the picture/video: the object is disc shaped with a small red orb leading it• We did not witness this with our own two eyes, we only happen to snap the shot and seen it on our photo.

Clear night. Lots of stars. Looking for Star of Bethlehem. Suddenly saw 3-4 objects, very low to the ground, with white, green and orange lights. They were bigger than drones but smaller than helicopters. They were following each other in a straight line. Every time I looked outside over the course of an hour I saw them.

I submitted my report a couple years back and my picture was not attached. I’ve emailed (2-3 times) and even spoke to someone on the hotline and was informed to resubmit my report so that you can attach the photo to my report. Thank you

Salome, AZ
While driving east on the I-10 between Quartsite and Salome, after passing the mountains, I looked north and seen a bright light in a fixed position in the sky. It split and an exact duplicate of it moved west of it and immediately stopped. The original light then disappeared. I lowered my window to make sure it wasn't a reflection and at that time, the new positioned light then split up and did the same exact thing, duplicated itself and the prior light disappeared as well. This continued for about 10 seconds and then it completely disappeared. I travel this area often and can confirm it wasn't on a mountain and was in the sky. It appeared to be a mile away but was hard to judge distance. The duplication it made was in a perfect pattern. The only time I noticed movement was when it was duplicating. Otherwise it appeared to be paused in a fixed position. The only thing I can compare this to is the intro of older James Bond movies, where there is a white ligh! t duplicated across the screen. Sort of similar but with more of a pause.

Quartzite, AZ
Walking my dog after sunset. Saw one three red light in the West. Didn’t think much of it until the three lights started fading while at the some time three different red lights appeared lower and to the south of the fading lights. The relative distance between the lights was significant and though at the time I should have heard something if it was an aircraft. I heard nothing. Watched the second set of lights for a minute until they faded too. The lights configuration was middle light slightly higher than the two other lights were slightly lower and equal distance from center light. I waited for maybe 5 minutes for them to return but they didn’t. Heard no noise. The lights were approximately 10-15 degrees above ground. There are no mountains or roads at that height above the flat Terrane of the Quartsite BLM area that’s 6 miles north of Quartsite, AZ.

This is a true account or may god punish me. On December 21 2020 I was invited by the son of a high ranking freemason to attend a viewing party for the great conjunction aka the "star of Bethlehem." Shortly after sunset our group was in the backyard waiting for some prime stargazing. About 45 minutes after sunset a huge fireball fell in an arc towards earth and since it was the end of a mayan cycle we were unsure if this was the end of our world. There was no danger however when we looked back up there was a huge rectangular prism hovering above us that was only illuminated in a haze by the lights from our surface. It was composed on the outside of triangular crossbars and it did not move in the slightest. It was the length of many football fields so that we could not see the end in either direction but we could observe its' width which occupied ~1/10 of the observable sky. ~2 minutes after the craft appeared a black helicopter appeared and was hovering directly above our group so low that the trees were swaying and it persisted for ~3 minutes thereafter. The homeowner's cat is normally very calm but it was showing signs of extreme distress. The craft persisted for ~1 hour before floating upwards and disappearing.

Between kids looking into the scope, I looked into the eyepiece to verify that Mars was centered in the view and saw what looked like a satellite pass through the field of view - not too unusual but rare. The little girl asked me "which one are we looking at?" I looked up from the scope to show her Mars but there were two VERY bright lights south of Mars by about 2 degrees and separated by about 1 arc minute. They persisted about 20 to 25 seconds and faded out. There was no discernible motion to them. I pointed the scope to where they had been and searched but saw nothing but stars. No planes in that area, no other unusual lights. We watched that area for about 10 more minutes but nothing else was observed.

I was doing some star gazing this evening when I noticed a high altitude light streak across the sky from East to West in a matter of seconds. At first I thought it was a meteor but it did not have the burn tail of the usual meteoroid hitting the atmosphere. This was a point of light like any other in the night sky racing across the sky.

We were looking up at the southwestern sky for the Jupiter/Saturn conjunction on December 21. It was close to sunset but there was still light in the sky. Out of nowhere a flash of light streaked HORIZONTALLY to the right of us. This object was not falling, it was flying absolutely horizontal and traveling south, away from us. The object was close and low. It was a very bright, white streak of light with a blue color in the front and then the long white streak or tail. As fast as it appeared, it disappeared. The tail caught up with the front. It sped up and vanished. This was a 3-4 second event. It made no noise. I turned to my friend and asked if he just saw that. He said yes. Again, the object was flying horizontally. I have never seen anything like this before..

Driving northbound on the 101 in Thousand Oaks. Saw a bright white flash in the sky at my 12 o’clock position over Newbury Park that lasted approx. 1-3 seconds, and then was gone. The sun was still out and I didn’t see any aircraft flying after seeing the light.

I went outside. I always look around. And above the tree line behind my house.there was a rather large ball of light. Starting from the middle of the sky. It was white and fell to the ground it seemed. Very bright no sound around at all. It scared me. I still looked trying to figure this all out. The sky in the same direction seemed to kind of light up. Then I ran inside. But it was too quiet. Not even a bug could be heard. It was odd. I live close enough to an airport and naval base as well as airforce base but it wasnt a plane 100%. Can anyone else explain what I saw please?

Stared at a plant that was supposed to be visible. After 10 or more minutes it started to move extremely fast. At that point I recorded it moving on my phone and had my friends wife come see it to make sure we were not crazy
