driving home from work at 1:30 am on 15 fwy between south corona/ lake elsinore by nichols exit. Green fire ball came flying down. Possibly crashed in the hills. Looked like when someone is shooting a roman candle firework but was ×100. Other cars slowed down on the freeway as we all had seen it.

Topeka, KS
At exactly 22:54 , our doorbell cam alerted to motion. I then saw a bright, red, flickering light much like mars looks through a telescope yet it was approximately 1/2 the size of the full moon with the naked eye. I went outside and this ball of light moved slowly across the sky which took approximately 1 minute before vanishing behind trees. This was bright enough to illuminate the driveway and vehicles and I have the video on my doorbell cam but I only know how to send it via email and text. The doorbell cam company is not allowing me to post it publicly for some reason.

Gulf Shores, AL
While on the beach using a PVS-7 NVG, I was looking at the stars when I noticed what I thought was a satellite moving across the sky. It was going about as fast as a typical satellite and then stopped and loitered in one position for about 3 seconds and then redirected about 45 degrees and continued for a short distance then stopped again for about 3 seconds. It repeated this a few more times, each time moving straight a short distance in a random direction and then stopping completely. It was above cloud height at minimum as I saw it disappear behind some clouds. This all lasted about 15 seconds total before I lost it behind clouds that were moving in. It only looked like a dim light through my NVGs and I couldn’t discern any shape due to distance.

Clear night sky with stars, but an unusual shaped glowing object Illuminated brighter than the stars. Mesmerizing glowing dark/royal blue color the shape of a elongated saucer/surfboard with a slight raised tail or 3D lining. The blue illuminating lights were so bright and entrancing.

Wayne Lakes, OH
This was a small red cylinder. It flew maybe the height of a drone, but then went up into the atmosphere, there was no sound, but later about a minute we heard a roaring sound. It seemed low, but it could have been higher, my camera caught it under a star. It went West to East. I did take a video.

Colorado Springs, CO
Date: 09/04/20 Time: 9-9:15 pm., GMT Location: Colorado Springs, Colorado Description On the date and time listed above, I was located in my back yard observing the planets Jupiter and Saturn, facing in a southeastern direction. I was not using any equipment or devices to aid my observation. The sky appeared free of any interference such as clouds, dust, or smoke. I was not under the influence of any legal or otherwise substance or liquid. As I continued to observe the location given above, I briefly averted my eyes away from the sky and when my eyes returned to the area of Jupiter and Saturn, I observed a white dot moving quickly along a path slightly east of a midway line between Jupiter and Saturn, moving in a straight line from SSE to NNW. At first I thought it might be the ISS, but realized it was moving too slow to be the ISS, having seen the ISS on several previous occasions. The size and brightness of the white dot was comparable to that of the ISS. I did not observe any flashing lights such as one might see when observing a high altitude airliner. After realizing that the white dot was moving too slow to be the ISS, I continued watching the white dot until it reached a point NNW of Jupiter/ Saturn, at which time the dot stopped moving. It remained motionless but began to fade or diminish until it was no longer visible. I continued observing the location where the dot was last seen to see if it would reappear, but it did not. After approximately 60 to 90 seconds, my attention was drawn to a moving white dot, identical to the first, in an area of the sky to the east of Saturn, traveling in a SE to NW direction, from south of a straight line from Saturn to Jupiter to a location NW of Saturn/Jupiter, but still east of the line of the first white dot. The description of this dot is identical to the first in size, brilliance, and color. After achieving a point NW of Jupiter/Saturn, this dot also stopped and as I watched it also began to fade until it was no longer visible. I continued to observe the area of the last visible location of both dots to see if they reappeared, for a period of time of about ten minutes. I returned to my back yard several times over the next half hour but failed to observe any appearance of these two white dots.

Stoneham, MA
On 9/4/20 around 9PM my 35-year-old son was taking our dog for a walk when he barged into the house and told me to come out and see this UFO. I came out with my wife and other son (31 YOA), at which time we all observed this orange or fireball coming from the Boston area, northerly towards Stoneham. It did not seem to be traveling fast, there was no engine sound as a place or helicopter would make. It turned Easterly and slowed down almost to a standstill, then another one caught up to it about 30 seconds later and it continued traveling east and the 2nd one followed it. Within a minute a 3rd one showed up from the same flight path and followed #2. Then less than a minute the 4th one got in line and they all headed east. My son thought that there may have been one more at the beginning one more in front of the first one that I observed . I posted on FB but no responses yet.

East Stroudsburg, PA
Over our lake the first craft was a sphere that was slowly moving up and down changing light patterns. The second craft at first appeared to be an airplane in the distance but did not move, instead, the lights seemed to change with the original craft, as if communicating somehow. We saw the same 2 crafts over 2 hours later from a second location about a mile away

Saw a craft in the sky that had a light on the belly of the craft that is much brighter than any light I have seen on a flying craft, it moved in a small forward motion, dipped behind a cloud for less than 5 seconds than disappeared from the sky even though it should have been visible after the cloud passed. Object was shining a beam of light down the back of the object, moving in a way most reminded me of a hummingbird with it moving in small circular motions, no sounds like a helicopter or any other craft. Before it dipped behind the cloud the light flared up to be much brighter.

Mattapan, MA
Looke out my window. I saw what looked like a fireball. It stopped and I watched it for a minute then it took off at lightning speeds. Inside the ball looked like a roaring fire. Like the sun. An hour later I saw 2 sets of small grey balls or spheres flying in formation shaped like a triangle and moving very slowly. It was going in the direction that the fireball came from.

I went out to let my dogs out and i saw this light moving across the sky . Was'nt a plane , could have been a sat. I see these things all the time . All's you have to do is look up . I've seen things in the past that were strange , such as , a light that would travel many miles then stop , then again it would travel a ways then stop again . This was seen by me and my son one night .

Circle or saucer, 200-300 ft up in the air, stationary hovering no movement. 3 large royal blue lights curved to fit the saucer. Bigger than a helicopter smaller than an airplane. Spotted at approximately 9:30 pm in Bloomsburg, PA, over gas station by the Columbia County Jail. The encounter was less than a minute but once we circled back around to find the hovering un-identified object it was gone. It was higher than a drone could go but was brighter than the stars. It looked like glowing led lights 300 ft up in the air. Very large!

On September 4, 2020 I saw what looked like a star that was still visible in the morning sky. I was taking my morning walk with my husband and decided to take a photo of the star. It was very bright and almost twinkling. As I pulled out my phone the light began to dim like it knew I was photographing it. It began to move so I crossed the street and snapped a few more photos. It quickly seemed to rise in elevation and then disappeared. I have 3 photos from 6:26 AM to 6:29 AM, the 6:26 photo shows it as a star, but the next two I zoomed a little more and definitely notice that it was a drone, or some type of high tech machine. I live directly across the street from Scotia Air Force Training Base, I see the solders all of the time, so one day I asked them if they used drones to surveil the base and I was told by the guard, no drones here. I have seen these star like objects over my home area many many times. I would love to know who or what is hanging out over my air space. I will try to attach the photos. Please use your technology to zoom in and you will see that it is not a star at all. Thank you for taking the time to read and review this.

The shape consisted of two chevrons with a vertical line in the middle; chevron shapes were more elongated matching the length of the middle strip; view from more of a side angel than direct overhead; barely moving.

York County, VA
The area was quite open being an eight lane road with single story businesses and a mid sized man made lake that parallels the road. Suddenly a bright flash caught my eye. I immediately looked to my left and about 400-600ft above the tree line a big (semi cab size), what appeared to be a orange (star color) translucent cube with it's edges glowing plasma white. The sky was extremely clear at that moment and it just looked like it shot out of nothing, slowly rotated around 2 times (.5-1 second, distance 2 miles) while leaving a small line white trail (similar to a shooting star). Then proceeded to blast off about 3-5 miles at light speed and disappeared back into nothing. I've seen several ufos before much further up in the sky and the traditional shapes but this thing was unlike anything else. It's proximity, shape, and speed were completely foreign to me. Almost as if it jumped in through a portal and the immediately left after 2 seconds. Anyways, just wanted to report this to potentially get info in the future of similar sightings or maybe someone sees this report and saw the same thing.
