Colorado Springs, CO

I was sitting in my car and happened to look up at the sky. About 30,000 feet in the air I saw two white rectangle shaped objects that were about a few hundred feet apart from each other. Slowly one of the objects moved closer to the other one. I looked down for just a second to grab my phone and they were gone when I looked back up. It was a clear day with a few wispy clouds here and there.

Saw an orange sphere moving Southwest over Tucson south side. Moving not fast but quicker than a plane. Slowly faded out not to be seen again. No sound.

Pepin, WI

I noticed this red light N about a 1/4 mile distance then just above the tree line. Then these white dots started appearing dim then grew brighter in a triangle. I got my phone, started shooting video, but it only took a picture. The next 5 minutes was nothing less than phenomenal with nothing being short of spectacular with the naked eye while what I thought I was capturing taking a video of it all. The triangle pinpoints were then connected by beams at the same time in synchrocy. Then another bar shaped light from the lower left side to the center grew brighter and brighter dividing itself in sections on both sides from the middle as if imaging the fields below facing in a southern direction for a few minutes.

Lancaster, CA

I grabbed my Galaxy 10 plus phone and zoomed my camera up to it, and held my camera still. This ball- like shape was now seen to spin and leave an aura of light around it, and it would spin out of my camera view, though holding it steady, to make sure I wasn't moving it. Then I'd find it again, and it would move again, sometimes moving very fast in a zipping motion and fast speed. I filmed it, then was freaked out a bit, and sat down at my table to watch it, and a light bulb burned out in the small chandelier above my table, freaking g me out more..lol.I sent it to several friends, but most were sleeping, one was up and said they hoped it wasn't a meteor.I said a meteor or satellite even wouldn't move like this, zipping, and moving that way. First time I am reporting this, but have seen these fast lights before, and there were many of them in a small group..never caught them on camera tho.

Manchester, NH

I was merging into i93 north when I saw a dim light above. At first I thought it was a plane because there is a local airport. But this was low to the ground (around the tree line and was almost hazy and dimly lit.) When I looked i saw 4 round circular rings which seemed to be 4 lights on the bottom of some sort of "craft" the body i could not see. It was almost just like 4 glowing rings dimly but VERY SWIFTLY glided above and spun 90• while doing so before losing sight. Split second later ANOTHER one followed. This one did not rotate in any sort from what I could see. Shocked and confused

Naples, NH

We have a condo on the beach in Naples, FL. At about 9pm, me and the other witness were relaxing outside on the porch. All of a sudden, my friend sees this extremely bright glowing star in the sky. It was so bright, that it did not look like your average star. Through the binoculars, we saw it much clearer. I could see the outline or the object, which looked like your average alien space ship shape. It had three lights; one big one in the middle and two smaller ones on the sides. The lights seemed to change colors, from green to yellow to red. They are so bright that I could see the clouds surrounding the object. It hovered it in the same exact spot for at least 10 minutes. After some minutes of staring, the lights seemed to just go pretty much out. Through the binoculars, you could see the lights dimly. The object started moving, and then very fastly went up into the sky and completely disappeared. We’ve also seen this now two nights in a row.

Bluffton, SC

Last night around 20:50 pm, I heard a very loud noise that sounded like a heavy truck, i.e., (garbage or cement truck). It was so loud that I went and opened my door to see what was going on. I didn’t see anything at eye level, so I looked up to the sky. It was past my house, just to the left of me, moving quite fast and the noise continued. Appearance. Looked like either a huge plane or a tricycle, the back wheels had blue lights, in the front had red flashing lights.

Eldorado, CA

Sitting on my porch with my daughter and looked like size of a hula hoop large orange white red. Looked like a ball of fire streeked past right above the trees in my yard and disappeared over trees toward placerville ca It came from south going north east It seemed too large to be a shooting star . What is a fireball anyway I looked it up and it is similar to what I saw

Norman, OK

My friend and I were outside smoking on a clear sunny Sunday evening when we noticed a bright light moving in the sky roughly 1000-2000 ft above. Very bright white orb moving steady along with no sound. Friend mentioned he herd nothing and the the light was 3 notches of brightness below the sun. The ball of light kept moving until out of view. Could clearly see the circumference of the orb and the light was extra bright from the very center with small rays emitting outward incased by the orb. Also, there were other air craft in the area at cursing altitude and a few private planes entering and leaving the local airport.

Nutley, NJ

Wife told me to look at light in sky, It was gone from sight by time I looked. As I was looking it came back into sight. Bright big and blue. It disappeared very fast afterwards ( whole experience lasted less than 5 seconds). I originally thought it was an airplane, but soon after multiple airplanes were noticed in the sky, with white and red flashing lights, which even at night time can make out the silhouette. This however was a circular blue light that disappeared in the middle of the sky and was never seen again.

Weiser, ID

Craft was moving side to side for a moment, and then performed a swirl up and to the right of my vision. Then the light went out. Within a couple of seconds it lit up again and did the same swirl pattern, and the light went out again. Then it lit up red, then the light went out again. Then lit up white again and zoomed out of sight and diagonal right of my vision.

Milton, FL

At 6:45 AM my family of 5 started out on our morning walk of 80 minutes in Milton Florida. My young children love the moon, so I looked up at the sky to point it out to them. Next to the moon we saw a bright mass about 1 hands width away from the moon. The object looked like a super bright, white star that was about 10 times larger than a "regular" star. If I held a flax seed in my fingers and put it against the sky at arms length, this is about the size the object seemed to be in the sky. My two older children (6 and 4), my husband, and my mom were all able to see the object. The object was stationary upon my first observations. The color was a bright white. The object had better clarity than the moon and was more white than the moon. The moon looked grey or bluish next to the object. The object appeared to be slightly darker in the center and the shape was ever so slightly oblong. It was immediately obvious that it was a new feature in the sky. W! e watched it for several minutes and took a video and pictures. We then continued on our walk and periodically while on our walk, we checked the object and noted its position relative to the moon. The moon was on its path across the sky, but the object seemed to shift from one to two hand lengths from the moon over the next 5 hours. The color never changed, except that as the sun rose higher in the sky,the darker center seemed to lighten up. This could have been due to more light in sky from the sun. I contacted relatives across the US. Locations were Wyoming, Arizona, and Ohio. Ohio sky was covered by rain clouds and Wyoming sky was covered by forest fire smoke. My step sister in Arizona could not see the object where she was. Between 9am and 10am I sat outside and watched the object with my kids. I tried to determine all I could. It did not change shape or color. The Location did change over the time it was viewable, but the movement was as gradual as the moons movement. It seemed to stay between 1 and 2 hand-widths away from the moon. It was 100% obvious in the sky. It looked like a bright white star that was about 10 times larger than a star. Initially (7am), the object was 45 degrees up from the horizon, but by 11am, the object was just about straight above me. The shift was gradual, as slight as the moon shifting positions. Around 11am, I drove to my mom's house in Gulf Breeze Florida. She was able to see the object as well from her location. When I arrived at her location, the clouds obstructed my view but the clouds were low and moving fast so I was able to check the location over the next few hours. I left Gulf Breeze around 4pm and there were too many clouds in the sky for me to determine the objects location. The last view was around 2pm. The object was straight up in the sky. My husband was working on Hurlburt field from 11am until 10pm on this day. Clouds obstructed his view for much of the day. The sky was clear by his drive home around 9 pm, but the object was not in the sky as far he could tell. He took pictures of the object as well.

Lemoore, CA

Close to 5 AM several fast moving lights flew above me in a somewhat straight line. Each one looked mostly round with a slight triangle shape at the end. They flew by in an interesting pattern. One would appear then quickly shine bright for just a moment and then go back to it’s normal lighting that was equivalent to a stars lighting. Then the next one would do the same. None of them shined bright at the same time and they all only shined extremely bright once. They somehow shined brightest in the exact same spot in the sky. They kept appearing out of nowhere and then quickly passed me by. It was beautiful and I first thought I was seeing meteors, but they didn’t have the same appearance. They were somewhat close together, I’d say each new appearance was about 4 seconds behind the last one. I couldn’t believe how fast they moved and just how close they seemed. I immediately googled it to see what I saw and I came across the Elon Musk satellites and thought maybe that was it, but I watched the video of those satellites to compare and it was not the same. This was not a perfectly straight line nor was it lit looking circles. They were close to circles, but more like a shape I haven’t seen before. Almost like how a child draws a fish with a circle and a triangle, but still slightly different than that and soundless. It was like my whole town was muted and I heard nothing, but myself saying, “Wow!”. Lemoore is home to a naval base so I was hoping that someone else caught this, but so far have not seen any news of it. I watch the sky most evenings and have found that the later I am out there, the more I see moving. Mostly I see satellites, but I have seen quite a few lights that were headed one way then quickly went up, down, or completely opposite of where it was going. Some have flown so close to one another and then stop and from my perspective it looks like they are having a standoff of some sort. Maybe curiosity toward each other or territorial issues. I’m not sure, but I am definitely never going to forget those moments.

Ludington, MI

Me and my family we’re on a trip at the KOA in Ludington,Michigan. On Oct.10 approximately 11:30pm were all the stars are at its brightest. I witnessed 7lights moving through the sky. It’s like normally if the clouds are moving it looks like the stars are to. And this time they were all 7 of them traveled in the same direction like they were all connected. One by one they would disappear slowly. I tried to get my family to look but by the time they looked they pretty much disappeared. I saw many other things moving in the sky that night I’m sure some were meteors but there were lights just passing through each other all night it was something else and it was beautiful to see!

5 lights in a triangle, high velocity north to south direction, silent, appear to be tight formation or connected however the stars beyond can be seen through the space where the structure between lights would be.

Charlemont, MA

I was camping in my friend’s field and around midnight was finally about to fall asleep when I saw a bright red light appear in the sky, then fade away to an almost white twinkle, then flash on again, then fade. Several times this happened. My first thought was that it was a meteor, but it was raining so the stars weren’t even out. A plane was my next rationalization, but it wasn’t moving in any direction, just still in the sky. Next I thought drone, but there’s no footage to be taken in the middle of the night in the rain. I kept staring and contemplating when 3 or 4 other red lights started turning on and off around the main red light that was fading in and out still, as if creating a pattern around the center light. I watched for another minute or so, even closed my eyes and asked myself if I was just dreaming, opened them again, and it was all still happening up in the sky. I finally turned over, pulled my sleeping bag over my head and began ignoring what was going on out of fear, really. I couldn’t even muster a picture because I wasn’t sure if that would set som! ething off or something. The next morning I googled UFO sightings in Western Mass, and was astonished to find a 5 year old article from the Valley Advocate with a picture of likely the exact same thing I had seen! So bizarre.

Hatboro, PA

At about 9:00 pm on 10/10/20 I looked at the sky above my front yard and saw a bright light, colored very green move in an arc across the sky. It was large and moved moderately quickly. It was shaped in a circle, but my impression was a sphere. I had only a small viewing site between two large trees. I observed for only about three seconds. I am a long time sky watcher, and have seen meteorites, fireballs, space station, planes, Chinese lanterns, weather satellites... but I never saw anything like this before. I am a teacher and a college graduate, as well as an outdoors person. I was so puzzled I posted about it on facebook, and asked if anyone else had seen it. Seven other people in my area responded that they had, with all the same details. I find that remarkable. I asked a family member, and she found a site that took reports on meteorites. 58 people in my general tri state area reported very similar sightings, with same particulars.

(Unspecified by witness), KY

Saw several lights moving around the sky in an odd pattern. Lights would go away and then come back several minutes later. Lights moved all over the sky. Sometimes close together at times far apart.
