Coxs Creek, KY
They were not flares. Had a thunder sound with automatic sounds. You could also feel some sort of energy. No airport in that location. Two to three at a slow steady pace. Possible UFO ship, because it slowly paced at the same level for five minutes.

Colville, WA
While star gazing as i do from time to time when I am unable to sleep I had been looking east to South to West ignoring the north. After several minutes I felt I had neglected the North for awhile. And honestly it almost felt like i was being watched. Upon looking north I saw what I initially thought was a flicker of light however within a second I realized it was something else. As I lifted my bino’s up I watched the light transisition into a disk shaped object. When viewed through binoculars I saw a glimmer or some sort of shifting movement maybe. I watched it briefly in shock both with the bino’s and with unassisted eye. It appeared stationary over the mountain approximately 100 feet above the “C” and almost centered over the cross. From my perspective the height could be off as my perspective in the dark was relational. The light started as a small size of about 2-3 feet. However upon closer examination I realized it was indeed a disk shaped object. The disk appeared to be 50-75 feet wide and maybe 15 feet tall. The disk initially was translucent and slowly appeared to be solidifying. It went from shimmering to being a solid object over a couple of seconds. When I realized what it was I thought to myself to get a picture and as I had the thought I removed the bino’s and unlocked my phone for a picture. It then shifted back and forth in place stationary and as I was opening the cam app it flashed away very quickly.

Emmett, AR
Notice 15 to 20 bright lights in the sky that. Seem to be hovering and motionless. Took out a 25000 luminan spotlight. Shine the light at the lights that were informations of two, the formations of two marched one behind the other in a line, and then each vanished one by one immediately after shining the spotlight at them. I've seen star links before this was definitely no star link

….dim white light caught my eye and it was fading from white to green as it entered the atmosphere and it changed from green to orange too red and at that point I could see a cocoon of illuminated gas or something behind it. It traveled in an ark from left to right about 180 degree turn and back out of the atmosphere at the speed of light. Whatever it was entered earths atmosphere, made a huge ark and then shot off. Whatever it was was not small. It was very large and the ark it took was as big as the United States if not bigger. It had to have entered the atmosphere so were over tge Atlantic Ocean.

Was at river. Saw a stationary flash start moving ironically. Then it reversed directions, and remained stationary for a few minututes. Before a plane with bright lights came towards it and the object went behind the cloud. Cloud cleared the object was gone.

high altitude, saw 10-12 small lights moving in a single file formation…each light was equally spaced….saw this from N-NW traveling up and north….then one at a time they disappeared into the dark….unsure if the military flies this many craft in single file formation? They were far away and looked like little stars….I was alone on a big piece of property..wondering if anyone else saw this? [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

Lyerly, GA
Was on our way home from having dinner in the town of Summerville, headed towards Lyerly we witnessed a bright white object, looked like a large beautiful star shining, as we got closer to the town of Lyerly the object got bigger and a orange beam resembling a laser shot out down towards the area object was hovering above, we weren’t sure what we just saw so we pulled over and I got out my phone to take pictures/video as we rolled down our windows the object took off faster then a plane over the mountain range towards the Menlo area, the night sky was clear and full. The rest of our party in another vehicle also witnessed this.

Council Bluffs, IA
There was a triangular craft flying a few thousand feet above the ground. There were 7 total lights under the craft. There were 2 flashing lights in the middle of the craft. It was flying at a very low speed that caused me to believe it was mimicking a plane. It appeared the size of a 777. There was no jet sound behind it. For the 3 minutes I saw it the world seemed to stand still. During this time as I was driving it felt like I was crawling instead of driving. But only while I was watching it.

At around 920pm, I was outside approximately 200 feet from the beach when I looked up and noticed a long string (approximately 30 lights) of round, white lights, all the same size, traveling south. They were moving at a farily quick pace. As I watched the lead light reach a certain point over head, it disappeared. Each light behind it also disappeared when it reached the same point. There was no mistaking these lights for aircraft and they were completely silent. It took about a minute for the entire chain to completely disappear. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

I was at Walmart and I just got done putting in some washer fluid in my truck. I looked up at what I thought might had been a hobby drone but it got very bright. Then stayed lit in the sky for about 20 mins and just disappeared all at the same time. The website wont let me upload the video and picture I have. It dose not look like a comet or meteor either. I can send someone the video and picture I have. I would like to know what I saw.

Probable conventionalSpearfish, SD
I was watching the sunset on my computer of Spearfish S Dakota weather cam, shortly after sunset a cigar shape appears it was metallic and moved slowly from left to right on my screen. My husband and I watched until it got to the end of my screen. I was able to back up and watch again that's when I started to video and take pictures. There were no flashing lights like a plane would have, in fact no lights at all. This took place at 9:15 central standard time that's my time. I believe that Spearfish is an hour behind us.

One single ball or circular light traveling at high speed from west to east. My husband and I watched this UAP for about 3 min. In witch it faded out and disappeared. I recorded this UAP from my back yard we were burning off some brush do you will see that flame light in the background. The fire on video makes the UAP to look like it flickers a few times. But this UAP was a solid bright light . I did take two videos. The second video shows the UAP behind the tree in my yard. So you will see what looks like flickering but it's just behind the tree branches.

i observed what i thought was an asteroid or meteor falling to earth in donelson, tn near the bna airport. the closer it came to impact i braced for an expected load sonic boom seeing as in relation to the two aircraft that were landing at bna airport at the time dwarfed in comparision of this thing. then it pause and three triangle shaped bright lights two green and one white came on and it changed its direction at a 90 degree andgle and had a green smoke trail and dissapeared shortly out of the atmosphere, truley unlike any thing that ive ever witnessed in my entire life.

Guntersiville, AL
Object was bright white, shaped like a stubby football, flying horizontally moving faster than any prop aircraft I've seen, (I was a Navy pilot) I would estimate the size of it to be a slight bit larger than a private aircraft. There were no contrails or other exhaust indications. I was indoor and heard no sound. Never saw anything like it before except on TV. Most aircraft I've seen seem to be flying "slowly" in nearby skies; not this object. It seem to be moving at least twice the speed of prop aircraft in this area. I would estimate it's altitude to be between 1 -2 thousand feet. There is a small private airport about 5 miles to my north. P.S. It follows the Good Year blimp that flew a similar path a few days before. I have a video of that.

The object did not move. It stayed in one position the whole time. The sun was reflecting, quite brightly off the bottom of it. Through a pair of binoculars, I was able to see the lights rotating counter clockwise

Wesley Chapel, FL
I was going into five guys burger joint while I was driving. I saw what looked like a flat long cylinder object moving at a slow rate of speed and was glowing an orange. Altitude was probably between 12,000 and 16,000 feet. Came back out it was gone, checked both flightradar24 and ADSB exchange and there were planes in the area but not that matched the flightpath of this object and were some distance away I felt as if honestly when I was looking at it that it was observing everything in the area.

Rogers, MN
A single, very dark cloud with what appeared to be a silhouette of a parallelogram inside was spotted above Highway 94 between Rogers and Otsego. It was flying lower and faster than all of the larger, white clouds in the sky. The object disappeared behind the Otsego water tower, then came back into view from the other side. Within a span of two minutes, the object flew completely out of view from the highway. It did not appear to disperse like smoke, but was instead very solid in shape. Additionally, it left no trail of smoke or clouds from the ground nor the direction it came from. It was difficult to tell whether or not it was traveling in a linear fashion.

Initially thought it was a plane at first glance but the object shape made me second look. Object was still solid and super flat and large. Couldn’t believe my eyes. I was driving and trees covered the area for like 15-20 seconds and once I reached the freeway there was a streak of light smoke going up. The only thing my son was able to get a picture of. A small plane later flew by the area and I know for certain that the object was huge and not a plane. Picture taken 5-10 minutes after it disappeared

I seen a fast moving formation of 3 lights in a straight line that had a definition of a dark/haze cylinder shaped object I could make out that the lights were on. It was moving very fast and almost seemed to fade away. About 20 minutes later it flew back in the exact same spot I seen it the first time headed the opposite direction.

Erwinna, PA
While sitting outside with after dinner coffee I clearly observed two luminous orbs, (one red and one blue), moving very slowly north approx. 250 ft. up just above the tree tops on the shoreline of the Delaware riven. Each object appeared to be the size of a large farm tractor rear drive wheels. The night was relatively clear and there was no haze in the sky. The night was also quiet and there was no road traffic at the time of my observation.The objects did not emit any sound nor was there any exhaust vapor trailing the objects. I did not have a phone/camera to snap a picture at the time.

It didn't last long. I got a paranoid feeling that I wasn't alone, so I went outside. I heard this unnatural thrumming noise that was slowly getting quieter. I didn't think too much of it; it was probably a helicopter. As I looked northwest though, I saw a string of lights appear in an alternating pattern of one, then two, then one again. It was like stars actings as hopscotch squares. They disappeared after a few seconds, row by row. I didn't know what to make of it. I then watched two stars move very quickly to a different location, but they stayed in the same position. Like two points in a diagonal slash. \ I'll share a quick drawing.My neighbor's dog just wouldn't stop barking until it stopped too. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Possible]
