Indianapolis, IN
There was a power failure around my block, so with the family we went outside to enjoy more of the fresh air... I took my binoculars (50x10) perhaps to show the kids airplanes, Jupiter and some stars. We are south of the Indianapolis International Airport, so usually there's a lot of light pollution, light pollution was still plentiful however there was a flight coming from south towards the airport and I asked my son to have a look with the binoculars. As the flight passed right on top of our heads I noticed this very bright light approaching from North East (over 2 o'clock if pointing North). I excitedly asked my son that was using the binoculars to look at it (wife, sons and little daughter were there), few seconds later I got the binoculars. When looking this object (roughly at the brightness of Jupiter) I didn't see any blinking light or discernible light, so I thought it could have been the ISS, I have seen it before, but with a 10 times magnification is a bit squarish (I have seen it before). I asked my elder daughter to pass me her phone so that I could check the ISS using her data, but to my surprise it was on an orbit to South America, hence, I'm writing this. When I checked the phone the time was 9:56 PM, thus my reported time is approximated, if possible to trace that airplane passing overhead the time would be found precisely. 15 minutes later there was another less bright UFO (I call it such because I checked it with binoculars and was not a plane), this was from the direction of the airport towards South. On addition, I have seen an object following the same path before, but not this bright. And few minutes later the same will go in the other direction... sincerely they seem too bright to be satellites. At this main one I'm reporting I'm pretty sure was way too bright. After the second UFO my wife started complaining about me being too excited and noisy, and told me that she has seen it multiple times once even during the day, just a light, same direction.

Forest Grove, OR
We were working on an excavation and noticed a strange light in the clear blue sky West of us. The object did not move and was stationary in the sky for approximately 40-45min. and then just vanished. A co worker showed up just after the object disappeared from a job site 20 miles away and asked if we had seen it. So it was apparently visible to many.

I witnessed something launching upwards Susan Northwest of my location. It left a steam Trail that was not consistent with that of the usual aircraft that fly over this area. It went straight up an art slightly to the north but continued moving up. The trail then ceased and the object continued launching up in the atmosphere it appeared to be white possibly circular and the sun was reflecting off of it from the West. It continued to move up until it disappeared in the upper atmosphere. I am not aware of any facilities in this area that would launch missiles, Rockets, or satellite. The trail lingered for 10 to 15 minutes after object ascended out of sight. Upon A Brief research of are craft exhaust trails and trajectory, I determined that it was definitely not an airplane but what I witnessed seems to be consistent with rocket launches in missile launches. Again there is nothing near me that I am aware of that would be launching anything into the Outer atmosphere. there was no sound and the object was ascending at a great speed.

At approximately 5:20 am, I got a text from my daughter. Her husband had taken their dog outside when he noticed the neighbor's dog and theirs barking at the sky. She said to look out the window. I got up and went outside. I saw a bright light over Provo Canyon. At first, I thought it was Venus but saw the light move right and back left. It had two large shafts of light coming from it, but the circle was also very lit up. I woke up my daughter to come watch it with me. At one point, the light went completely out but no clouds had passed in front of it. It was obviously not a star or Venus because it was much larger. It lasted until 5:50 am and we had taken photos and video.

as I was driving down the road a glowing blue orb dashed across the sky at great speed. It was not a shooting star, or a plane. It did not change direction at all and was somewhat in low orbit(lower than a plane).

Object is orange is round like a star but much bigger and is moving up down left and right and all those other directions in a small pattern sometimes zipping up and down but stays within a certain perimeter and constantly changes direction and speed but all within a small area, have multiple videos unfortunately they’re not very clear. This is not the first time a UFO has been spotted at our property on branch lake, this is the only sighting caught on video, I would like to upload my videos. They are around 1min30sec taken on a IPhone 10. Has also appeared to stop and stay stationary for a few moments then starts moving around again. Videos and pictures DONOT give this sighting any justice but it is without doubt a UFO. I would like to send you my videos and would like to know where to send them???

Fast moving fireball very low in sky, no sound, no crash. Headed south towards Atlantic Ocean. It looked like it could be a meteor, or shooting star, but was large and was so low it would have made a large explosion if it hit earth. It had a fire tail streaking after it.

I was on my porch getting some video of lightning from an approaching severe thunderstorm. I honestly didn’t notice it fly by at the time because I was looking away from the direction I was filming. My house faces roughly ESE and whatever this was traveled in that general direction from the WNW. Aside from some faint thunder, I don’t recall any strange noise at the time. Given the fact that it’s duration was about 1 second on the video and it’s distance traveled in the video is maybe 1/4 mile, I estimate it was traveling at 800-900 mph.

Orange, MA
I’m not kidding. Almost every night there’s a ufo that comes through orange. I’ve seen a couple but the one I’m talking about you can see if you face south and look Southwest, Towards Westfield, Ma. It rises into the sky, sometimes it does circles or goes up and down, sometimes it just flies away. Almost always it’ll fly northeast. My only guess is Westfield Air Force base, one of the biggest in New England, has something they’re not talking about. I’ve also seen a triangular craft with three red lights at the points, and one HUGE white sphere in the middle fly over my house in the same direction. I got a video of it and soon after that cell phone just disappeared. It was an old government flip phone and the craft was moving so slowly I was able to film it from my window then run outside and catch it outside before it flew over tree cover. If there’s anyone in orange on here, look for the one that comes almost nightly! If you’re not good with direction go to! the lights by the dispensary, stand in front of the brown apartment building facing the Pizza Factory, and look above the Bedroom Factory. Right around sundown. You’ll eventually see it yourself.

I was sitting out on my back porch when some lights in the sky caught my attention, I looked up and saw 4 very bright lights….the only way to explain is to think about the flash going off on a camera and when the flash is at its brightest is what these 4 lights looked like. As I was watching them fly in a perfect diamond formation one of the lights started to flash, although it was not the light itself flashing but it flashed a light on the right side (3 really quick flashes) then the lights flashed on the front(again 3 really quick flashes) 3 flashes on the left side then finally 3 flashes on the back. As that light finished its flashes the other 3 did the exact same flash pattern. As these lights began to move out of sight I saw a fifth light that just appeared out in front of the other 4 and began flashing its lights in the exact same pattern.

On August 25, 2020, at approximately 21:10 I noticed several bright lights in close formation to each other over the horizon in the tree line to the left of the Big Dipper constellation. I recorded video with my cell phone several times over the course of an hour until the lights were gone. The lights got extremely bright, like a flashlight being shone into the eyes when looking at them, and then would dim and completely disappear, then immediately reappear. The lights changed position with each other and moved around in somewhat of a group, going southwest, then straight up, then straight down, and finally returning to their original location. There was absolutely no sound make by the lights, crickets and cars driving by can be clearly heard in the videos. The strangest part is that when taking pictures and video, no other objects in the sky could be seen through the camera, only the strange group of lights. These lights had also appeared on August 22, 2020! around the same time and lasted about the same duration of an hour, except the position was closer to the Big Dipper constellation. Upon reviewing the videos, the objects seem to be emitting light - not reflecting the sun, spinning very rapidly, and a tiny object can be seen moving around the largest object like a satellite. The shape of the largest object appears to be round with a raised section and something on the top. The smaller objects are harder to determine due to the brightness of the largest object – the strangest part was that the size of all of the objects seemed to change as well.

I was at Sutton Place Park, east 58th street, when I looked up in the sky and observed a phenomenon unlike anything I am familiar with. The UFOs were moving fast in an elongated oval shape and were shaped roughly like Xs. There were approximately 8-12 crafts moving at a fast speed in a cyclic nature. They were light with fuzzy edges.

On August 25, 2020, between 20:14 and 20:45 hours, several people on the “neighborhood watch-Glendora, San Dimas La Verne” facebook group from Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, the Santa Fe Dam in Irwindale and even Alta Loma saw a formation of white circular lights, 20 in all in a vertical-smile formation. Another witness in Alta Loma reported seeing a fireball type object in the sky around the same time, as well as a transformer explosion in La Verne.

Was taking pictures of storm clouds in the area when I noticed this white orb flying and knew it wasn't a plane or drone. Was flying slowly. Didn't look like anything I could recognize and took a picture and a short video of the object. Had to zoom in with the camera to see something because when the camera zoomed out couldn't pick up the light. But could see it with my eyes. Just looked weird to be a normal craft. Figured to share it.

I was on the phone with a friend, who is a city police officer. We live in the same neighborhood and he was driving home while we spoke. I was on my back porch and I have a very clear view of the sky. I was facing east. The sky was perfectly clear, with only very very small cloud near the moon to my NE. While it was not fully dark yet, I could see a lot of stars beginning to shine. I noticed a few stars rapidly blinking, and then realized it was a very large cluster of very fast blinking “stars”. They were in a horizontal swath. I called my friend’s attention to it, and he also saw it. Over the course of about 3-4 minutes, (though it may have been less), this cluster collectively moved slowly across the sky to the north. It stayed at roughly the same altitude and I could not determine how far away it was. I did see the entire cluster move behind the two-story roof of the neighbor behind me. I tried to determine if there was a pattern to the blinking, but it ! was too fast for me to make a determination of any kind of pattern. Some of the lights were brighter and bigger than the others but the blinking tempo was the same. The cluster maintained the same speed all the way across the sky until it was out of sight. It was a very large number of blinking objects and they were clearly traveling together without any kind of spreading out or dispersion. All lights were white. Police officer also could not find an explanation.

Leavenworth, KS
At dusk on August 25, 2020, 2 members of my household witnessed 2 large, round orange lights rising from the horizon south of our home. The bright orange globes rose up slowly. I thought they were floating Chinese lanterns and went outside on my porch to watch them drift. I have seen dozens of floating Chinese lanterns and I’m familiar with how they travel through the sky at night and their light effects. As the 2 orange lights slowly climbed higher, they changed color instantly and then changed direction suddenly moving north. They changed color from bright orange to more yellow and white. As the objects got closer I realized they were much larger than a Chinese lantern and further away. The objects did not appear to travel in perfectly straight lines to each other and were silent. They were both going the same general direction of north toward Fort Leavenworth. As the first object got to my 10 o’clock, the lights suddenly went off and a dark, triangle shap! ed object was clearly visible. The triangle shaped object maintained the same path. The second bright, yellow-white light that was following the first moved past my 10 o’clock and kept traveling north with its lights on. It never turned it’s lights off. I have a video I took on my cell phone. The event was observed for almost 2 minutes.

Windham, NH
I was having a late night swim with my two children. It was about 9:10 when all of the sudden we seen three very bright circular lights from a distance coming towards us at a very fast speed. This was much closer than a plane would ever come and definitely not the shape or sound of any plane. It hovered diagonally above us for a quick moment then suddenly it took a sharp right turn and it was gone. As of then, we noticed that the shape was triangular. From the back, there were two lights in the back that were not as bright as the three in front. As far as I knew ufo’s were circular, this object appeared that way from the distance, from the back was when I noticed that it had a triangular shape to it. Definitely nothing we have ever seen!
