Tallahassee, CA
I have pictures from my father. It’s a clear picture of an unidentified aircraft hovering under an airplane. Circle shape. Event took place around 2pm in Tallahassee fl. My family contacted me as soon as it happened. Someone please contact me for more details. Unfortunately I’m unable to post the pictures along with this post.

Tulare, CA
I saw three bright moving objects relatively going the speed of a normal aircraft but slightly faster. Also flying slightly lower than normal aircraft's. All three were going the same direction in a line formation. They were traveling from north to south. They had no sound. All three were the same exact color and brightness. I captured all three on video with my phone.

On the night of April 16, 2021, at approximately 9:48pm, I was in my backyard waiting for my German Shepherd to do her business. I was looking at my phone and I noticed she had walked up next to me. As I looked over to her, I saw she was looking up to the sky behind me and she had her head cocked in a manner to say “What’s that?” I turned around and looked in the direction she was looking, which was almost true North, and I saw a very ultra white, very bright round light. Although I can’t say for sure, my initial thoughts were that it was maybe a mile or mile and a half away (using Magnolia Av. to my north as a possible point of reference), traveling slowly in a westerly direction. I quickly brought up my cell phone camera, switching it from photo to video, and hit the record button, as something was strange about this light. My first thought was that it was a drone, however there were no red/green direction lights on it that I could see, and there were no sounds coming from it’s direction that you associate with a drone’s propellers, and the size seemed way too big for a drone that distance away. The object’s direction of flight took it behind a large tree in the parkway behind and next to my house. I was able to watch it continue westward through breaks in the tree’s foliage. I could see the moon to the west, also behind the tree. It was in the waxing crescent phase. The object continued and visually appeared to pass to the left and under the moon, where I lost it behind the heavy tree foliage. I tried to position myself to see if it would appear below the tree’s foliage but I couldn’t see it anymore. I could only guesstimate the distance it traveled as maybe to Main St., approximately a mile and a half west of me, however it may have continued much farther. I posted my video on a local social media site, wondering if anyone else had seen it. One female posted she saw it and thought it was a drone. Another female posted saying she saw it from her windows and jumped out of bed. A third female posted the event was “filmed in (the city of) Murrieta too” (a city 30 miles south). A male posted he also saw it, saying it disappeared fast when he went to take a video. He said he and 2 others reported it to the UFO Reporting Center. As with so many others, I’m on the fence whether to believe in UFO’s or not, but the stories have always fascinated me. I am a 30 year honorably retired sergeant from the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department.

Redding, CA
Walking, downtown, I saw a disk object, flipping end over end, just below the cloud ceiling (aprox. 4,000-5,000'). Dull grey color, one side darker than the other, traveling aprox. 100 mph, in a northwest direction. Looked to be aprox. 6' wide. I watched until I lost sight of it in the distance.

We looked an we saw glowing orange lights floating in the night sky, with no discernible fornation. They moved at the speed of balloon bit they were larger than balloons and we would not have been able to see ballons at this time of night. After a few minutes the lights just faded away. Even our two dogs stopped playing long enough to watch this happen.

We didn't see it in person with our own eyes. We only saw it through the phone camera. It was white with bright lights on underneath. The picture was while we were eating dinner at night.

Cayucos, CA
I was sitting at the pier on the beach having a bonfire. There was a group of 6 of us, the 2 of us that were sitting at the fire both saw the same thing at the same moment. The light of the fire drowned out any other stars and the clarity of the night sky. All of the sudden it looked like a shooting star but there was 4 perfectly aligned lights spaced all evenly, and they were bright, but perfect bright sphere lights unlike anything I have ever seen. These lights were significantly brighter than any star in the sky that night by a huge margin. The line of lights was above the horizon line of the Pacific Ocean and shot across a small portion of the sky and disappeared in mid air within a matter of a split second. We both looked at each other in disbelief of what we had just witnessed.

Vacaville, CA
I was taking the trash out and looked up at the clear night sky when suddenly my eyes were immediately drawn to these 5-7 orange/red lights in the sky. These lights were all the same size and were in a perfect V-shaped formation heading west to east just over Vacaville, CA. These lights flew straight over my head and were moving extremely fast. I first thought that perhaps the orange street lights were playing with my eyes with a glare or something, so I ran into the middle of the street to see if anything would change but nothing changed whatsoever. These objects were roughly 3000-5000ft in the sky . I suspected that this could be some type of military aircraft but the thing that made it clear that these were not military was how silent these crafts were. No sound whatsoever, just lights. This is my first UFO sighting and it matches how everyone else describes these crafts.

I was just finishing picking-up yard debris in my backyard when my husband came outside. I mentioned how beautiful the stars were looking tonight. As I was looking up I saw what I thought was a plane but it seemed a little too bright and round to be a plane and it didn’t have the red and green blinking position lights. It was round but not perfectly round. The edges were slightly jagged. I followed it and it wasn’t moving in a straight line. It was wiggly, moving suddenly slightly to the left and then to the right. I asked my husband if I was imagining, thinking something was wrong with my eyes. He said he sees it too and mentioned that the craft wasn’t making any noise so it couldn’t be a helicopter. He exclaimed "I think it’s a UFO!" We continued watching it and as it moved further away. The brightly lit craft started to flicker then it dimmed and “poof!” In a flash, the light of the craft went-out and disappeared!

Was recording a video of our new exhaust on our mustang and caught a sighting of a UFO that came straight out of the sky and hovered above the building. We didn't notice the UFO until we watched the video a few days later, so recording was stopped after we recorded the video of the car.

What I saw has to do with the rising of the moon. One night the moon rose from the North-esst horizon and then a week later the moon rose slightly south east. It basically rose in two different places a week or so apart. I don't know what this may mean. Thanks

I saw what looked like a small airplane go straight up into the sky and disappear. It looked to me like it had gone into outer space because it got smaller within an area of three inches holding my arm out to the sky. It didn't travel to the horizon it actually just went straight up in the air and disappeared. It had no vapor trail and by the time it went farther up I couldn't see wings on it anymore. Another person was there and he could not even see it when I pointed it out to him even though it was clearly there to me he couldn't even tell it was there.

Went out to feed the dogs and saw a series of square lights slowly moving across the sky from west to east or southwest to northeast. Could not see any craft just about 10 square window shaped lights that were all next to each other in a horizontal line (single craft) moving across the sky. I walked about 20 feet while looking at it thinking it could be a glare off something . It Did not change speed or direction. Dissappeared behind some trees. Was a couple miles away from me over Chicago Park, Colfax area. Checking my security camera when I get home to see if it caught anything

Two white, spherical shaped craft flying Eastbound over Ventura Boulevard from Sale Avenue. Very slow, maybe about 25mph and at about two thousand feet above ground altitude. They both maintained a fixed distance from each other as they moved and going in the same direction. Sid not speed up or slow down during the minute or two during the observation. These were not drones, fixed wing aircraft, balloons, or helicopters. They looked like two golf balls flying in formation.

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.

Lucerne, CA
At around 11:30 PM, I noticed a star blinking strangely in the night sky through my window. It appeared almost the same as an average star, however, there is substantial cloud cover tonight and I noticed slight changes in hue when the thing blinked. I continued watching, reporting to some friends over text at 11:53 PM (hence the timestamp.) I left for a few moments, and the star was gone. I stared at the sky some more just to be totally certain, and saw the object streak relatively slowly across the sky. I see relatively similar things on a regular basis, so I thought I'd report it.
