Erlanger, KY
I saw a bright orb, white in color, shimmering across the afternoon sky. I jokingly told my 6 year old it was a ufo thinking it was just a high flying plane, as well as pointing it out to my aunt. I tracked it northwest across the clear afternoon sky until it looked like it came to a stop above the house. It sat there and it started fading out until it either disappeared or I lost it in the bright blue afternoon sky.

Was sitting on the balcony having coffee. This object was flashing different colors and seemed to be changing shapes possibly. This stayed in one place for around 20 minutes. I had to go in to get ready for work, looked out the window and it was gone.

I was star gazing as I do every night and I saw this one weird looking star I thought it was a planet but my guy said it was a plane so I decided to download a stargazing app so I could prove him wrong but by the time I pulled it up I went to look to see which planet the object was and it had moved to right above my head. So I videoed it for about 20 minutes before I got a friend to verify and double check to confirm I wasn’t crazy. So he came out and thought it was a plane until he stared at it and was like “ No way, that things not moving” and he proceeded to freak out with me. This object was NOT a plane, it wasn’t a planet, nor was it a drone because it was in the sky looking like a star and really far away. I’m hoping my video will send so you all can see and check this out with me!! Good ole Middleburg has now confirmed a real ufo sighting !!!

I got to a friends to drop off some material for a job and I got out of my truck and a light out of the corner of my eye caught my attention I looked up in and all of a sudden it took off wicked fast and left a white streak through the sky and then it disappeared totally

The craft had a bright white light I thought it was a star when I looked out the window of my door but noticed it was way to close it did not make a sound but as it flew over my house it made a turn to go parallel to my home as it passed over my property and flashing lights on both side flying very low to the ground close enough to make out the bottom of it where there where less bright lights around the object. As I said it did not make a sound if it was a plan you would here the engines that low to the ground or a helicopter would have been loud but it could have been a stealth helicopter military grade but why would they be observing me. They hovered for 2 minutes just above the tree tops looking straight at me and when I went to the window it took off in about a minute and a half flew straight at me turning to avoid my home.

The ufo was in the tree line right outside my window the object was too close and fast to be a plane and made no noise from what i could hear in bed. 6 very orange lights in a almost perfect circle moved straight ahead almost seemed like it was heading toward my direction and went past my window. Very strange and looked nothing like I’ve ever seen it seemed too large to be a drone but too small and quiet to be a plane.

Always thought it was cool. On my way home from my sisters house. I live at the Canadian border in Blaine. Zero cool anymore. It’s like taking a super bright blue LED light then it turns into two. I do have bipolar disorder so maybe I’m just nuts. I don’t know but it frightened me so I killed the headlights and hauled ass home! I Do Not want any weird dudes at my house.

Kensington, KS
While driving southbound on E 1100 Road, south of E Hunter Rd in Kensington, KS, heading towards Agra, KS, a very bright blue-white round orb was seen in the southern sky moving from west to east. It was thought to be a plane reflecting the bright setting sun, but it then quickly faded away completely, leaving no trace. This was after about 5 seconds of observing the object. It was thought for a bit to be seeing a very wispy black or gray cloud in the same spot where the orb object had just disappeared from, also dissipating nearly immediately. This was generally a cloudless blue sky on a very hot and sunny early evening. The passenger of the vehicle stated seeing two flashes of long bright lines travelling the other direction, but that was unobserved by the driver of the vehicle and cannot be accurately described for the purposes of this report.

I saw one bright orb in the sky approximately facing SW. I saw the object again at 1:10pm while on a bike ride in goleta. The object didn't seem to move but seemed to hover high in the sky. I lost sight after clouds rolled in.

This is a still shot taken of rain coming in.However if you look up at the whitest cloud there's a golden egg shaped object that appears to have something on top and a few things,* sorry best word I can think of on the front underside. [NUFORC annotation: Cloud - Probable]

I was in my backyard stargazing as I had heard the Perseid meteor shower was still going to be visible until the end of the month. I actually viewed several a night over the past several nights leading up to Aug 18th and I'm 51y/o so I have seen my fair share of "shooting stars" in my life. My eyes were acclimated to the dark sky as I had been outside looking up for about 40 minutes prior so more and more stars were coming into focus and in my field of view. I then saw what I thought was a shooting star but it took a 90 degree turn went a distance while slowing and then made another 90 degree turn before it accelerated and faded out. I literaly didn't believe what I had seen. It was at a very high altitude. Looked like a star in the sky making turns. So weird. I'm one city away from Travis AFB in northern California so I've seen plenty of military aircraft before and this wasn't one of "Ours". It moved at a ridiculously fast but smooth speed and then changed direction on a dime and appeared to slow down but then sped up and changed direction at 90 degrees again. The entire event lasted maybe 2 or 3 seconds. I will never forget it. It's been bothering me for nearly a week now. What the hell was it? Drones can't operate that high right? And at supersonic speed?

We walked outside to the back to let the dogs potty. We noticed the lights immediately as we looked to the west - northwest as they were bright lights slightly drifting upwards in a vertical straight line. They were at about 5000ft to 15000ft. Maybe even less. There were 2 separate airplane lights that were at higher altitudes on both sides to reference this. It looked like they were trying to achieve greater separation from each other and as they got into position, they all disappeared. The top one disappeared first and then the next one lower from the top. It was in sequence highest to lowest as they all disappeared one after the other in about a half second to one whole second. Just found this site and would appreciate feedback as to others in the area seeing this as well. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Possible]

While driving on 104th st e, I was headed towards south hill mall when I saw a glowing orb hovering to my left, it hovered for a while then descended downwards, I lost sight of it behind some trees. Made no noise and seemed to flicker or be continuously turning. Looked pretty high up I have video footage.

while out walking the dog I spotted the first in a progression of objects, There was a baseball game going on in field across from my house and a game was taking place. It seemed as if the objects wanted to fly over but the bright lights caused them to detur to the east, they were lower than airplanes and they made no sound. I called my girlfriend and she came and witnessed it as well. They were bright orange with a dark center and silent

Around 8 pm, I was working at a wedding outside the venue at the Pavilion on Crystal Lake. I was alone outside setting up a photo booth, then looked out onto the lake. I see three bright, glowing orbs in a triangular formation quickly fly west, then tilt upwards facing me and disappear flying skyward.

When reviewing pictures I noticed in a series of 3 pictures taken in one location one right after another that a glowing light form shows up in two pictures and has moved from one location to another. [NUFORC annotation: Camera Anomaly - Certain]

It was about 60 feet in diameter, the coloration was a flat grey. It was at an altitude higher than a plane could travel, it had no trail of steam or smoke, it had no visible form of propulsion. It pretty much defied the laws of physics.

I thought I saw headlights reflected in my window, but they kept getting closer and closer. Then, I saw the lights shine on my window with blinds, and the light was so bright white it was almost blinding. All of the sudden, this yellow drone looking object with a 3D base of a cylinder with a dome on top comes racing towards me. I could see the shadows reflected on my wall, and I closed my eyes because the light was too bright, and when I opened them it was gone. Maybe it disappeared or flew up? I did hear a faint humming noise. Not sure if the lights on the ring were connected to the base. It seemed to me like it could be something domestic, but it was too big and technologically advanced to be someone’s personal drone. There are not images of anything like it online. It was also the fastest drone I’ve ever seen.
