Auburn, WA
Last night on an evening bike ride with my fiance, we saw objects steadily heading up into the sky. I counted 8 in all. We saw a helicopter approaching than turn away. Others on social media heard helicopters over auburn for 3 plus hours around the same time, no one found out why.

Bremerton, WA
Driving on thehighway to Bremerton. my boyfriend and I saw a group of lights about 5 or so in a triangular shape. There also was one light that was quite a distance away from the group. The light moved twords the group(we couldn't see due to trees and buildings).these lights were moving. Compared to the stars(wasn't really many but it was a clear sky) they were so bright two of them where a yellowish tint. The others were bright white. We saw this our whole drive (15 min).the lights were over Port Orchard, pretty low.

Bright light I’m the night sky. Didn’t move or blink. After about 8 seconds it shimmered and disappeared. No clouds around it. I was driving for work and noticed it. I’m always looking up to try to catch something because I have been training in the field of remote viewing. This is the first time seeing anything since a sighting about 8 years ago.

Witness was enjoying the beautiful orange cast of a colorful sunset, upon the landscape in his rural yard, including dense trees. The treeline starts 200 to 400 yards away. He was seated on his deck facing east. A quiet time since there is very little traffic on his road and the birds were settling in for night. A fast moving object caught his eye above the trees headed directly west into the sun. It was a beautiful brown metallic structure. The intensity of sunlight made it shine and revealed shadows indicating layers of metal. It was submarine shaped only with sharper rectangular edges defining its exterior. It did not have an intake opening for jet a engine. It did not have a propeller. It made no noise. Silent and fast. He did not have time to grab a camera. His cellphone was in the house as he liked to enjoy nature without electronics. Just prior to this siting a bald eagle flew directly over the open part of the yard heading northeast almost at eye lev! el since their house is on an elevated part of the property. The navel base at Keyport, WA was lowering their flag just prior to the sighting. (MUFON CMS 94857)

Marysville, WA
At nearly 10:30 pm on May 23, 2018, I observed a small, white light, high in the E/NE sky near Marysville, WA. At first I thought it could be a satellite, (way up there,) but it slowly, gained speed. I then noticed a brighter and much bigger light, in front of the object. They appeared to be moving in tandem, same heading, (East to North East,) same speed. I was at that time, gauging distance (Are these lights at as high of an altitude as I think?) Then the two objects passed far above a very high, sparse cloud. It was then that I was surprised as they gained speed, one following the other. Their incredible speed was not consistent with my knowledge of military or civilian A/C capability. Then the trailing object stopped and its light dimmed abruptly. (I thought that it had disappeared, so my eyes followed the other object.) The much brighter, larger object continued down the horizon. After following the path of the bigger light with my eyes, I looked back (up) at the area where the smaller object seemed to disappear. I observed what appeared to be a star but was not; the object then brightened and moved off in the same direction as before. I served in the USMC Air-Wing in the 1980's, and I am an avid aeronautics observer. I have seen many things in the sky that I have brushed off but this was different, I have no clue what this was or even what it could have been.

Alright so I got footage of this glowing yellow object in the sky, changing directions and shooting downward super fast. Well, the video will explain I really don't think that this an an airplane

CRAFT APPEARED AS A SUPER BRIGHT BLUEISH WHITE LIGHT MOVING NORTH OF MY ADDRESS. I PULLED OUT MY BINOCS AND GOT A LOOK. IT WAS A DISC SHAPE WITH A HALO ALL AROUND IT. THE LIGHT WAS AS BRIGHT AS A ARC WHEN ONE IS WELDING WITH ARC WELDER. WITH IN 30 SECONDS OF ME VIEWING IT WITH MY BINOCS, IT JUST BLINKED OUT AS IF ONE SHUT OFF A LIGHT SWITCH. THE SIGHTING WAS 1500-2000 FEET. WHAT SURPRISED ME JUST HOW VERY VERY BRIGHT IT WAS, SO MUCH SO IT HURT MY EYES TI LOOK AT IT AND IT WAS EVEN MORE PAINFUL WITH MY BINOCS.I STILL HAVE A FLASH BURN ON MY RETNA AS ONE DOES WHEN A FLASH BULB GOES OFF TOO CLOSE TO YOU. I CLOSE MY EYES AND I HAVE GHOST SPOT IMAGE. I HOPE IT GOES AWAY, IT STILL VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. FYI, MY FIELD OF SKY LINE VISION, IS UNOBSTRUCTED 20-30 MILES LEFT OR RIGHT OF CENTER. MY SO AND I BOTH WATCHED IT FOR 2-3 MINS BEFORE IT JUST BLINKED OUT. MY SON YELLED OMG IT JUST BLINKED OUT..

Heard jet/airplane sound then two lights came into view. They were pretty bright yellow as it was in the clouds on cloudy night. They were making the clouds light up brightly like a camera flash on and off quickly, and constantly. The lights did disappear after a few seconds. I thought holy ((one word deleted, that's powerful when i saw it in the clouds. (( One of three reports from the same source. Possible hoax?? PD)

Bremerton, WA
On the evening of May 13, 12:05 a.m., I was gazing up at the sky. All of a sudden, my eyes were drawn to the south east, and I was very amazed to observe a formation of approximately 7 bright white lights in a V formation. The lights streaked across the sky to the north east within a matter of seconds, and then winked out.

Marysville, WA
Witnesses observed an object at high altitude procede from south to north +/- traveling at a speed similar to observed satelites this object appeared to vary its course from left to right and back. It also went out and came back on as It traveled NW. Perhaps a meteor skipping off the atmosphere? There were no other lights on the object. Thought it was a satellite at first except that it appeared to vary its course left and right and would "go out" and come back on later on its generally northward trajectory. It went out at about a 35 degree azimuth to the north and did not reappear. It originally appeared at about a 20 degree azimuth to the south. It did not exhibit normal aircraft lighting characteristics.

Curlew, WA
Hello, three pictures were taken in Curlew, WA, on Wednesday afternoon May 9, 2018, by my grandson (19 yrs. old). He said he ran outside to take pictures of the rainbow. He took 3 consecutive shots on his cell phone camera. He sent the pictures via text to me as he knows I love rainbows. He said he was amazed at what he saw other than the rainbow. Two other people were with him and witnessed the event. Note the white disk shaped object to the right above the rainbow. The second photo shows it again. In the third photo it is gone. He said, "I was just taking pics of the rainbow and it showed up out of nowhere. It wasn't even there for two seconds before a muffled hum and like that it was gone". Note the two white disks in the distance above the green dumpster's top left corner--follow the treeline up the hill. Those two disks are not in the first two photos. I don't know what those are but sure would like to find out. Please take a look and see what you think and let us know. These pictures are incredible! [the 3 photos have just been sent from my email account separate from this submission as]

Federal Way, WA
My wife and I were driving north bound on I-5 and a blue object darted out from right to left over the freeway very fast. Lasted only about 2-3 seconds. It was heading NW then vanished. Too fast and small for a helicopter to low for a plane and to fast for a drone. My wife thought it was a shooting star, but again, it was too low. If anyone else saw it, please respond.

?????, WA
Witness was laying on sofa in front of big bay window with view of night sky. A huge square with unblinking lights at each of the four corners passed in front of the 3rd story window. The object was about 300 ft. off the ground. The distance between the corner lights was fairly large. The object was flying in a single line without wavering up, down, or backwards. Observer watched it until it was out of view. It was travelling in a southerly direction. The first reaction was that it was a UFO. Had no doubts when looking at it. Witness researched drones but didn't see any pics of drones that resembled the craft. Besides the object travelled in a very straight line. The object was flying over the inlet, and was just left of a shipyard. About 20 minutes after it flew by the wifi went dead and the computer could not be found. Then the computer showed up again and was secure and connected

Arlington, WA
While monitoring my security cameras @ 1:21am 4/27/18, I noticed a strange orb of light moving strangely above the tree line looking east above Arlington, Wa. I went out to the driveway and looked for it, but did not see it. I went back and reviewed the video footage and the orb of light was in the exact area I was looking at. Evidently, the IR night vision of the camera was picking up an infra red light source. Just after I turned to come back inside, the light went straight up out of frame of the camera. The light moved up, down, and sideways like a hobby drone. It appeared to move over a large area and would have been hard to fly without visible lighting on it. It was in view for about 2 minutes.

Port Orchard, WA
Thursday, the 26th of April, upon arriving home it was about 8:10pm, still daylight. After unlocking my home I walked up my driveway to retrieve my mail. After gathering the mail and proceeding back to my house, I began to hear a “buzzing” sound not unlike a bee. At first the sound was faint, but in a few seconds the noise increased in volume until it began to hurt my ears. My first thought was it was a swarm of bees after me. I started running to take refuge in my garage, but before going in, I looked back to see what it might be. Seeing nothing, but still hearing the now unbearable sound, I looked to the sky and saw two red rings, very high in the sky traveling at a very high rate of speed. As quick as the noise appeared it disappeared, along with the red rings. I ran into my home and called 911 and explained to the operator what I had just witnessed. She told me a Sheriff’s Deputy would contact me. The Deputy indeed did make contact and a report was filed. I am convinced that what I saw was not of this world, as I can think of nothing that flies as fast nor as high. Source of report is a very successful businessman. PD

Round craft or object following closely behind a commercial jet that appeared to be heading north from PDX. The Jet was not real high in the sky yet and the round bright white or shiny object was about the planes length behind. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

On the evening of April 26, 2018, I was in our backyard, when I saw a airplane heading North from the Portland area when I noticed another object traveling at the same speed but was much smaller and trailing the aircraft. The smaller object had no visible angles or lines like the larger aircraft had and seemed strange to me since if it were a smaller plane it would have had some distinctive lines to the shape. I video taped it with my phone and when the video starts you can enlarge the picture to see this object which appears to be round in the video and not like a smaller plane.

Camano Island, WA
At approximately 03:15, I was on my front porch having my morning cigarette, when I witnessed a craft come within view of where I was sitting. Subsequently, I stepped off my porch onto the sidewalk in order to get a better vantage point. What I saw was a glowing diamond shaped craft hovering at what I estimated to be an elevation of 4 to 6 thousand feet. The craft seemingly hovered for almost a minute, when suddenly it darted off towards the direction of Whitbey ((sic. Whidbey)) Island. This craft gave off a yellowish light and noticeably intensified prior to darting away.

Tonight, 4/23/2018 at approximately 10pm I was browsing on my computer when my dogs started to bark. I opened the slider to let them outside, then noticed a strange cluster of lights in the sky, moving very slowly from northeast to southwest. It appeared to be a singular object with multiple lights in a tight round cluster. The lights were multicolored, bright blue, deep red, gold/orange/yellow and white, very vibrant and rapid twinkling with a bright intense pulse or flash of one of the red colored lights. As I watched for about 5-10 seconds, it moved slowly to the south and the tree tops began to block my view. I called for my husband to come see but when we both looked back it had moved out of sight. I have never seen an object like that before. This was about 4 times the size and brightness of the largest star I’ve seen in the night sky. I would guess its altitude to be about 2000-3000 feet, very difficult to tell. It wasn’t low to the ground like the aircraft we typically see around here and it didn’t appear to be as high as the air traffic we see from SeaTac. I don’t know what it was.

We continue to watch it for about 10 mins, until it started to come closer. It stopped as it started getting closer, and flashed bright lights. Then it shape shifted into a aircraft. When it flew over we heard nothing. Also, two satellite looking things came out from underneath it. Tried take a video but it didn't even show up or wanted to work and I have a brand new phone too. Weird. Got a photo though thankfully of its bright light.

Carson, WA
Early Friday, April 20th, 2018, at around 3:15 am, I woke up and few minutes later realized I had left my phone/alarm clock in my car. I stepped out my door and a couple seconds later noticed something traveling to the East of my home, at first I thought it was a shooting star traveling from N to S, but it turned blue and grew into large blue mass with huge bright blue flames trailing it. I stood there watching as it descended and slowed waiting to hear the “boom” from it landing in the Cascade Mountains..but nothing. Not sure what it was, and have not seen any other reports of it. It was amazing to see.

Burien, WA
In my driveway facing S-SE, looking up higher than the position of Jupiter, the brightest object at the time, looking almost overhead S, I saw a bright, almost reddish light moving, sometimes almost in a zig zag pattern as it appeared to move higher. Up, to almost over the top of my head as I’m looking South. Kept “hopping” not in a smooth movement but almost jumpy. Weather balloon? Watched for 3-5 minutes. Looked away then up again and lost sight. Possibly more at the top (zenith) but if it was what I saw, and the same object, then it was fainter as though moving beyond view. Didn’t appear to move like normal aircraft and it was silent.

Spokane Valley, WA
I witnessed my neighbor outside looking at the sky, he has never seen the stars as he is night blind. I stepped out onto our shared porch and he asks what that light in the sky was. I observed a bright white orb in the western sky, seeming to hover in place, my wife then stepped out to see what we were looking at. She observed the same object. I attempted to Google the planets as I am not an astronomer. The object stayed in place while I did this. I knew it wasn't Venus and far too bright to be a satellite. Fifteen minutes later, convinced it must be a planet, I went back inside with my wife. 20 minutes later I stepped out to leave for the grocery store and it was just gone. I viewed this object myself for about 15 minutes, my neighbor was viewing it 5 minutes before I stepped out on the porch. The light was brilliant white. It did not change intensity. No blinking, flashing, or any movement that I could discern. My wife said she felt like it was shifting positions ever so slightly, but I did not notice this. The sky was clear and stars were visible. We have regular air traffic in the western sky from our vantage point and have lived here for 4 years. My wife and I have not seen this before.

Main witness, his wife and two sons, were on the deck and looked up to notice three objects heading toward them in the sky. The kids were excited and apprehensive. Older witnesses were calm and curious. Suddenly the furthest light morphed/appeared as a large cigar shape, perfectly identical on either side, like a disc or Frisbee when looking at it directly on as it flew. Slightly taller in the middle of object. It appeared brighter more orange in color. It kind of seemed to have fuzzy edges. Wasn't "high definition" defined. At this point the youngest started to cry and ran into the house followed by his older brother. They all then stayed put but the main witness was shocked by the sight. He tried to photograph it with his cell phone but it wouldn't show up in his viewfinder. He took photos in the direction anyway and ended up with blank black screen.. It stayed stationary for a minute then slowly moved N by NE. up the valley floor towards Snoqualmie. As they moved north the two other spheres disappeared and they lost track of them watching the large light. The large light disappeared leaving behind the same color light but much smaller as it had moved from their SE. Directly to the E of them it changed shape and density like moving plasma and fell similar but not exactly like a leaf below the tree line down to the ground. It was bizarre. "I'm not sure if they/the lights were entities themselves that confuses me since the one got so huge and shaped like what you'd imagine to be a ufo but just illuminated no sign of metallic structure at all. Then the later translucent light fell to nothing.
