Indianapolis, NY
I was out walking my dog in my parent’s neighborhood in an area known as Geist. It’s semi-rural, mostly suburban. The dogs in the neighborhood had been barking a lot this evening (not unusual, as there are quite a few foxes and occasionally coyotes). I am visiting from New York City and needed to walk my dog down their street because of the activity earlier (dogs barking, coyotes can snack on dogs as small as mine!). I was on the phone with a friend and it was quite dark on their street (yards have lampposts but no streetlights). The sky can be quite remarkable here as it’s far enough from major light pollution. Tonight the sky was quite mixed with clouds and some stars peeking through with heavier cloud cover to the west. There are small airports nearby- so I’m used to seeing and hearing small aircraft and larger planes. Mostly all unremarkable- I do believe some folks may also have drones, but it doesn’t track... I looked west as I was walking the dog after looking up to see Mars overhead (in an area where the clouds were patchy). My eye was drawn west and I saw a red/orange bright light/orb. At first I didn’t pay much attention because, as I said, there are a number of small aircraft consistently out all hours of the day and night in this area. I thought it might be a helicopter, as it was sort of winding and weaving at a relatively consistent altitude about 45’ from the horizon. It was moving in sort of a serpentine fashion. As a New Yorker, I’m very familiar with helicopter flight patterns (and most especially after this summer). The altitude and the brightness of the light (it was an orb) were too bright and also too diffuse for a helicopter. At the size, I would have been able to hear it, even if the wind was in the opposite direction. It wasn’t more than a couple of miles away based on the size (and the altitude). It weaved back and forth, sometimes appearing to stop. It was a red/orange light- no green visible even as the object appeared to turn and dip. The altitude, like I said, was relatively consistent with some dips. I ran inside and brought my dad out, we watched it for a few minutes and then went inside to get his star-gazing binoculars (the sky can get dark enough here to enjoy a lot of stars on a clear night). We went through the house and to the back deck with the binoculars. He switched on the porch light and I asked him to turn it off- he did and we looked for the light and it had disappeared. The cloud cover was too high for it to have disappeared through it (high, thick clouds to the west, where we saw it, but not low enough for where this aircraft was to disappear in less than 90 seconds). We went outside immediately (their house is a small ranch). The object had completely disappeared. I have no good explanation for how it could have moved suddenly that quickly or dropped low enough to be out of eyesight in that minute and a half as we were transitioning through the house. The light was also notable- as I said it was a ruddy sort of light, and quite diffuse. Very weird! Also notable that after the light disappeared, the dogs in the neighborhood seem to have settled down. (Again, probably and very likely unrelated based on the creature activity here)..

Edmond, OK
Was standing outside in backyard with the dog. Looked up in the sky, south and west of Mars, I saw two positions that at first I thought were distant stars. Then the brightness of them increased in intensity and they were extremely bright and white, no blinking or other colors. After fifteen or twenty seconds, they began to fade and as they were fading, they to go up and away, out of sight as fast as they appeared.

Pelican Rapids, MN
On Dec. 6th at approx. 18:30 we were driving southbound on Hwy 59. I was looking at the stars and noticed what looked like tower lights at first, but it was unusual. No lights were blinking, and the whole line was moving. I asked my husband to look and see what he thought. I had him pull over and we both got out of the car and watched this straight line of lights that were spaced evenly apart, except the last lights were two lights that were closer together, then one light, then 2 lights closer together again, and then one last light. They were all traveling at the same speed, and when they got to a certain point in the sky, each one disappeared when they hit that same exact point. It was a very clear night, with no wind, the lights did not float or hover. We have no idea what this could have been, but we have! never seen anything like it. It looked like a line of stars traveling in one straight line then disappearing. There had to be about 12-15 of the lights traveling from South to North. There was no noise associated with this. We were looking into the southwest over Prairie Lake by Pelican Rapids, MN. The time frame was approximately 2 minutes in duration. My husband tried to take a picture and record video but it was too grainy to see anything. x(disappeared) . . . . . . . . . . . . . X

Manheim, PA
ON approx 1547,12/06/2020, While taking my taking out for the evening run, I happened to look at the sky and see what appeared to be a triangle shaped object ahead and above me. It was approx 300 feet in the air. From one side and actually 3 sides,I could see various colors . Those flashing colors were on the 3 sides of the vehicle alternately from each side. I could hear no sound and it was moving at what appeared to be a slow pace. I quickly went into my home to get my cell phone to get a video of this event. I tried to video tape it I did check my phone and it does appear I did catch the object on the camera from a distance. The object eventually came to a complete stop and hovered ,I watched this happen for approx 15 minutes and it was still there when I called in the report the UFO Reporting Site.

Signal Hill, CA
I was walking my dog in Signal Hill, Ca. which is a small city atop a hill which overlooks the City of Long Beach, Ca. From my vantage point, I could see into the ocean and I was looking in a S/W direction. At that time, I observed an extremely bright white light, a bit lower than normal aircraft altitude (maybe 4000’) and not adhering to what would be the the normal LAX or LBC flight path, which caught my attention. The light was over the ocean, appeared to flicker in intensity, much brighter than a star and the sun was still out at the time, but nearing sunset. It was possibly off the coast of Huntington Beach, Ca. As I watched, the object appeared to be completely motionless for about 6 minutes, then the light slowly dimmed and went out over the course of about 4 seconds. At that point, I could no longer see anything in the area. I don’t know how long it had been there before I saw it. Just looked up and there it was.

At 11:53 pm Sunday December 6th my husband was standing outside our hotel room in Fort Collins Colorado facing east. When my husband saw a Large orange fireball he alerted me as I looked. I also saw an extremely large Fireball, about the size of our 1998 Chevy Tahoe. It was traveling very fast from south to north in direction then appeared to fall to the ground. Th

Tucson, AZ
Left to run to the store at 9:27 pm as I’m walking to my car I glance over and something catches my eye but I thought I must have been tripping because it looked like my neighbors tree was on fire but when I focused I thought it was just an amber street light shining thru but once I got in my truck and to the stop sign the huge amber glowing ball which I then thought was a plane on fire was just chilling with me it was fading in and out moving fairly slow compared to the helicopter that flew by it which I originally thought was there to help (idk what I was thinking my brain was everywhere) a car pulled up behind me and I had to move I had been filming it so I moved and then I couldn’t get my video back on and as I looked up there as another one! Even bigger and seemed closer they both flew slowly west then zoomed out south and disappeared with one still flickering occasionally. I should mention I’ve been seeing several of these every day since and other que! stionable things I can’t really explain but I have lots of video!

Kingman, AZ
I-was driving north on rt. 66, 10 miles out of Kingman Az, ahead, over and beyond the music mountain range. I spotted 2 red twinkling lights and a much brighter orange light taking up the rear. The 3 lights, at arms length, were approx.1/2-3/4 inch apart evenly spaced,traveling west to east in a straight line,moving very slow. I stopped the car, we watched it for nearly 10 min as it slowly faded out in what now appeared a east northeast direction. as the lights were now at a sight angle and fading fast in the direction of the Grand Canyon..I would guess it was at east 20 -30 miles away.never seen anything like it before

Aguanga, CA
I went outside to lock up my shed. Moving east to west, appeared three large, white lights, slowly moving closer in my direction. Before passing over and south of my location, I could see three objects, triangular in shape, dark in color with pulsating red lights on the v-shaped wings. There was no sound at this point. I ran back in the house, I grabbed my wife's phone off the charging doc, told her to follow me and ran out the front door. At this point , the three aircraft were slighly west of my home and moving Northwest, deeper into Riverside County. They used engines because I could now hear the engine thrust after passing by. I was able to capture a video but only the lights can be seen and not the design of these objects. First sighting for me.

Tallahassee, FL
I was walking out to my truck after dark around 8:30 pm to leave after having dinner with my aunt and uncle. I stopped and looked up to the sky for some reason when I unlocked my vehicle door. I saw what I believed to be a satellite moving slowly across the sky. It was simply just a dot of light far away. Then the object moved quickly downward and I knew it wasn’t a satellite. I gazed in awe as another bright light quickly moved towards it. They were moving very unnaturally. I stared for about one minute before the tree line obstructed my view.

Turnpike near Bristol township, PA
Heading on PA turnpike heading towards Bristol area, appeared to look like lightning in the sky. But skies were mostly clear. A triangle shaped object appeared, lit up very bright and took off and disappeared into the clouds. The aircraft looked like it had 3 engines on the back and upon taking off left a long trail of lights until it was gone.What looked like lightning may have been lights off the aircraft. As cliche as this might sound it looked like it was something out of a movie. From star wars where a spaceship gets ready for "light speed". I've never seen anything like it in my life. Aircraft was a triangle shape and way to big to be anything from earth. At least that I've ever seen. I was able to make out the shape of the spacecraft from the lights but it appeared to have some type of cloak technology on it.

santa fe, NM
I was walking home and through the sky I noticed a diagonal stream of twenty or more slow moving orange-ish lights blinking quickly in a sequence of farthest down to highest up as they descended west and eventually over the horizon. Occasionally they would seem to blur together and flash brighter. I don't know how long they were there before I saw them. Another man from my neighborhood came out into the street to get a closer look.

Whitewater, WI
Driving into Whitewater from the north on Highway 59. Passenger spotted a straight linear formation of bright solid lights out the window towards the city and rolled down the window to attempt a photo. I only saw about 20 because I was driving, however he claims to have witnessed close to 100. Turning off the road we witnessed the lights go out one by one. The total event took place over the course of about minute and we did not see them again.

Leland, NC
Sighting from backyard in Brunswick Forest development, Leland, NC (near Wilmington, NC) Two bright dots in the sky between Mars and Neptune at 6:55pm approximately, December 5, 2020. The dots were aligned perpendicular to the line between Mars and Neptune. They were about the size that Mars appeared, but brighter than Mars. When I first looked up and saw the two dots positioned as they were, it looked like Orion’s Belt. Then I said, “hey wait a minute”, since there were only two stars! As I said that, the two stars dimmed to about the brightness of Mars. They were about an inch apart if I was to hold my hand up to the sky to guess distance. After they dimmed, they simultaneously moved about two “sky inches” from my position up and to the right. Then they rapidly faded from sight without moving location. It was a clear evening, mid 50s temperature, moon had not yet risen above my sight line. I was looking almost due south at the time. The “dots” were about 45 degrees up from the horizon. No sound. Observed by one adult female, aged 46. I’ve seen other craft over the years dating back into the 1990s.

Naubinway, MI
While viewing Mars, which still appears yellow. I saw 40 “Stars” headed from the Southwest towards Mars. Each light was of the same brightness and were on the same plain as Mars, but nowhere near as bright as Mars, yet easy to see with the naked eye. As they approached Mars, they were all equidistant from each other. They then each disappeared as they reached Mars and didn’t reappear. They all were on the same plain. I held out my right hand. I spread my index finger and pinky finger as far apart as I could with my right arm stretched out. This is exactly how far apart they were from my view point. The sky was totally clear. The moon had not risen yet. My house is out in the middle of the woods and it is extremely dark. I was actually outside looking at The Milky Way and listening for wolves when these mysterious “Stars” appeared in my field of view. I have a large yard and there are no trees blocking the view. The lights came from the area of Saturn and Jupiter (Space App), but much higher off of the horizon. Thus traveling West to East. I have seen satellites frequently which become brighter as they reflect sunlight to your location then quickly fade. Mostly Bi-Polar in nature. These lights were the same brightness the entire time they crossed the night sky—West to East. I cannot express my amazement enough. No pulsing or anything but the same brightness. White in color. They all looked exactly the same and in a straight line formation. I actually started counting as the fourth one “disappeared” as they headed directly to Mars. They were on the same plain and didn’t deviate. Very flat across the sky. Forty “Stars”—Exactly. If they were aircraft, why did they disappear?

Palmer Lake, CO
I saw a sequence of lights that looked like stars moving through the sky from a single origin point to a single end point. They were all perfectly and evenly spaced and moving at the exact same speed. There were another plane flying at another point in the sky so I could distinguish between the plane and these other ufos. These objects moved from point a to point b for a duration of 2-3 minutes until the last one was gone. If these were planes and not ufos than it was a highly coordinated flight sequence between a huge squadron of planes to all be flying at the exact same speed in such a long linear fashion.
