Kings Mountain, NC
I was driving eastward down highway business 74 in Kings Mountain North Carolina. I observed a silver metallic object floating in the sky just above the tree line at around 3:00 pm 10/14/2020. The object looked like a half dome saucer, silver in color, and reflective on top with a flatter underside that was darker in color. The object from my viewpoint looked to be about half the size of a full moon in the sky. The object was suspended in the air roughly 30 to 40 feet above the tree line. As I began to go around a slight curve in the road, I lost sight of the object behind some tree limbs. When I rounded the curve the object was no longer visible.

Witnessed silver object that would shine bright when the sun reflected looked as if it was slowly spinning but staying in one place. I was driving on 540 towards RDU. Hope someone reads this who saw it too.

was in the car on my way to work heading north on Causeway Blvd in Metairie and I saw a star in the morning sky, my thought was that the star was quite bright, it was warm white light, then I saw that it dimmed the light and I could still see an object there, it was a little darker than the sky, it got brighter again, but then dimmed the light and disappeared. I was able to look at that spot for several more minutes before the car had to turn and object didn’t show again.

SW Portland, OR
At 6:19am on 10/14/2020 I walked out of my house and looked at the sky to see if the sunrise had started yet as I was getting ready to have my morning coffee before work, and I observed 6 craft flying north/northwest, flying in unison, each about an inch apart by my view (obviously much farther apart). I heard no sound and all I could see with my naked eye was six white lights. After about 10 seconds the formation broke left (which to me was west, they broke from flying northwest to west generally though still slightly north, and they flew toward the sky instead of flying parallel to the horizon as they were). They appeared to speed up and after about 5 seconds they were gone, out of my sight. They moved faster flying away after the veer than they were generally, but overall they were traveling very fast. About a half hour later I looked outside and saw a contrail of sorts, perhaps a jet chasing the crafts...the contrail went in the same direction as I last ! saw the crafts.

Crafts were heading due north. They're was a single file line of approx 50. Strangest and weirdest thing we have ever seen. There were airplanes travelling in the other direction, at lower altitude.

As bright as the moon, moving west to east passing over the last star in the handle of the big dipper, so maybe 35deg above the horizon. All matched Speed and random distancing however, seemed to be somewhat evenly spaced. Some small grouping (3) per group. Appeared out of west, fading up into full brightness from the same spot, running in a fairly straight line to the east, covering aprox 1/3 of the center of the sky. From fade in to fade out, aprox 60sec. Speed would be the same as an cessna 182 @ 1000ft AGL at level flight speed. I have been involved with Aviation since 1969, and this is my first "reporting" of this type of event. I have experienced others in the past, but usually way out to sea and off the standard jetway. Somebody else HAD TO HAVE ALSO got this show. This was way way to obvious.

Yakima, WA
Yakima Wa approximately 6:07am. Clear, no clouds still dark outside. I could see many stars. I was on my front porch and noticed an aircraft slowly ascending into the sky. Airport is close to my house. Just above this plane I saw what I that was another plane, but it wasn’t like anything I’ve ever seen before. Hundreds if not thousands of lights traveling very fast in unison. As I walked to the south of my yard I could see the other side of this craft. It was massive. All white non-blinking lights. Triangle shaped. Silent, and moving faster than any airplane I’ve ever seen. My iPhone could not detect a picture or video because of the lights on my property. I could clearly see this with the naked eyes. I watched this for more than 7 minutes straight. The pilot that was leaving from our airport had to have witnessed the same thing. As fast as this was moving, and how long I witnessed it, this craft had to be miles long. Since I couldn’t get pics or a video, I ! came inside and drew what I saw and everything I could remember about this event. I took a pic of my drawing and then texted it to myself so there would be a time stamp and date on my report. I went on Yakima scan to see if anything was reported and I saw nothing. I posted a short note saying, “did anyone else see the lights above the airport from the West heading East”? I didn’t want to give a full description because I wanted to be able to confirm the details I saw without leading others . I know what I saw and witnessed. I’d like to know if anyone else has reported this as well. I decided not to include the picture and details I drew out because only my husband was notified of what I saw, and if I see that there’s other reports, it will prove my drawing was correct. Please feel free to contact me. Please!!

While walking to my car at approximately 11:00 PM this last Tuesday (10/13), my girlfriend and I witnessed a very high-speed, reddish light going North to South along the Pacific coast. The light was rather dim, almost like seeing a fainter satellite traveling across the sky, but with a red tinge to it and traveling much faster than any satellite I have ever witnessed. I could not tell if it was something in the atmosphere like an aircraft or something in orbit like a satellite, but it had no discernible beacons or navigation lights like an aircraft and moved in a straight line for the 10 seconds or so that we witnessed it.

Knoxville, TN
I was with my girlfriend earlier this week. No airfields or bases were around our location, though there are both most likely in a 25 mile radius. We were in a big empty open field near her house that we like to go to often and sit and talk when she gets out of work and doesn't have enough time to do much else before going home. This night, a Tuesday, approximately 8:30-8:45 pm, the sky was clear with not even a cloud in sight. I had the idea of getting out of my car and looking at the night sky to see how beautiful Mars looked. Because there were no street lights around, one could see the whole sky in full in all its glory and beauty. We were talking, saw a shooting star, and then continued conversation for another few minutes. Then we laid on the hood of my car and I noticed this little grey cloud above us. I didn't think anything of it besides "wow, only one little cloud and nothing else." I turned my head back towards her for roughly 5 or 6 sec! onds as we continued talking, and then we both happened to look up at the same time and she quit talking as we were both dumbfounded as to what we were witnessing. At first I thought the stereotypical "its a bird" but the wings were not moving. Then of course "maybe its a plane or a drone". I said to my girlfriend, "babe, do you see..." and she said "I'm looking right at it". It was a U shaped craft, more like a boomerang, the width of maybe a large bus, gliding completely silent over us. It looked otherworldly. Translucent. I felt like I could almost see through it yet it was solid. It was gray, but blacked out with no lights and if any clouds were above it I swear it would have been invisible. There was no smoke or anything behind it. It was just this blacked out huge silent boomerang about 100-150 feet above the treetops on the outskirts of the field gliding and ZIG-ZAGGING from left to right, yet staying completely flat. Just as q! uickly as it came, it went. Directly afterward, a dog in the d! istance and same direction the UFO had traveled began barking very loud and uncontrollable. I told my girlfriend to research "boomerang shaped UFO" right after we determined we have never seen anything like that in our lives, and we found this webpage, https://www.huffpost.com/entry/boomerang-ufo-zigzags-ove_b_6221676. This was the closest thing we could find to describe what we had experienced, except for the fact that our siting had no lights, yet the one on this webpage did. That is about all I can tell you about the experience, it was the most bizarre thing I have ever witnessed and I have no clue what to do about this experience but to tell someone. Thankyou.

My husband and I decided to talk a walk on the bike trail and around the school. You can see the sky clearer by the school and I started to get a very eerie feeling. I couldn't stop starting at the sky and noticed I was seeing a lot of triangle star patterns. But when I looked closer I could see multiple black triangular ships all over the sky at least 10. We went home and I wanted to show my children who are teenagers. It was like they where hidden in plain sight. For someone to glance up, you can't see it. When I was pointing up to show my children the triangle patterns. DIRECTLY over our house one appeared and was a visible UFO. It was so close just above the roof and the trees. It was a different shape more round and moving south. It was so close to us and it was like it was creating its own light. There was no sound coming from it, and it was silent all around us. It was like everything was still. I panicked told my husband and saw it fly off in the dis! tance. Then I stayed outside starring up and see another rounded one appear below one of the triangular ones. I realized I was seeing flashes in the sky and hearing a metal noise also. The vibration in the atmosphere was like static. A very eerie and amazing experience. I come from the wright patt area and I am used to seeing some things but this was nothing like that and it was like it wanted to show itself to us.

I was fishing just west of the Shiloh ball fields when I noticed a non flashing yellowish white orb that was somewhat erratically flying towards the north horizon at what I'm guessing a moderate rate of speed. As it was heading farther away from my view point and getting close to the constellation of the big dipper which was clearly visible on the horizon. A beam of light about the same color, but not near as bright appeared to shoot up from ground level right next to the orb. The instant that happend both the orb and beam disappeared. Needless to say it was kinda hard to concentrate on fishing after that so I packed up and went home.

My wife and I was walking the dogs at 8:30pm. I was looking up at Mars and directly above head a triangle shaped craft was travling south in direction. The triangle had very dim rectangle lights at each point. The craft appeared to have a vibrational hue around the lights. It was also colorless or almost as if it was cloaked. There was no sound coming from th his craft either. It appeared to be very close, maybe 100 feet above head.

Inspecting locomotives and noticed 30 flying red orbs flying in formation over the bridge between 8 and 9 pm. My coworker was flagging up the track. They seemed like they were headed straight for us but when they reached a certain point they began to fade like they were flying away from us at the exact same point over the bridge. I don't have any photo or video evidence. The fleet seemed to have better things to do than to go off course.

Hello, I’m writing you because I just started a new job working at a hotel in Battle Creek,Mi and last week I saw the blue light while taking a picture of the moon while outside on my break and I thought something was wrong with my phone camera. I was off for the rest of the week until last night and I just went out (5:00 am) to take another break and this was my first time seeing the moon all night, and I noticed a small light underneath the moon that was not there last week, so I took a picture and oddly that same blue light was back. I took a closer up picture and it was still there in the same place it was last week. You cannot see this blue light without the camera. I did not use any filters on the camera either I usually don’t so I can capture the true beauty of the moon. Could someone maybe take a look at this and tell me what they think it could be? I came to the conclusion that it’s definitely not a bug because there was nothing flying in front of ! my phone.

They were rotating, Giving off beam's of light, They seemed like they were looking the for something. They were hovering over the airport and then moved farther out. They were flashing different colors, The Two bigger ones were brighter than the two small one's. And they all were flashing colors. The smaller two were reddish brown and also had a teal color to them that flashed, as if they were taking pictures of some sort. I know they were spacecraft's and not airplanes or helicopters I seen an airplane and it made a major wide left turn. the helicopter slowly turned around. I believe the helicopter was military it only had one light and it was blinking red. Unfortunately i couldn't see the shape but i knew when it was a UFO when i noticed two extra bright light's in the sky and no sooner then i look they zigged and then figured eight i immediately told my two friends to look.

My mate, a friend and I were looking at an owl on a tree limb when, beyond my focal point, a bright light I assumed was a star flashed and "wobbled around. It moved without any defined line and flashed on and off for about an hour.

At the S, Burlington airport the new F36 jets where landing. I looked down the road and there are trees on both sides of the road. in between the gap a craft went by so fast that it blew my mind. i estamate that the craft would have flown over the 2nd F35 as it was landing. i texted my wife and told her right away what I seen. there was no noise and it was going so fast it bade the trail as if you waved you hand if front of you.

It looked like a circular star. It would disappear in a flash and then reappear in a different locations. It would hover in place and then move too slowly to be a plane or a helicopter

Driving thru Ridgecrest neighborhood when we spotted a horizontal white cigar shaped object with a darker band in the middle. It was moving from East to West at about the speed of a plane. The craft actually resembled the fuselage of a large jet but had no wings. Altitude was maybe 2000 ft. It moved from East to West & simply disappeared from a very clear sky after about 10 seconds.
