Lihue, HI
At 0430 hrs 08/19/20, while taking my dog outside to relieve herself, I looked up into the sky to see the stars. I did not have my prescription glasses on, but an odd “light” caught my eye, appeared to be circular and have a “corona-type” flare all around it, in the southeastern sky. I went back inside to grab my iPhone 7plus and my glasses. I proceeded to focus on the object with my phone camera and increased the magnification to 10X. I took 5 photos at 0432, 0433,, again at 0433, 0434 and 0435. At no time did this object move, it appeared to be just “suspended there. I will be uploading my photos in order of taking them. Afterward, I went inside the house, back to sleep. After I woke up, I re-magnified the clearest of the photos (photo #6). This took place at 0859 hrs. I posted my findings on Facebook. I then researched and found that both Jupiter and Saturn were visible in our Hawaiian Sky until 0313, and 0353, respectively, only until this morning -08/20/20. To verify that what I saw, was or was not a planet, I “checked” the sky at 2130, 2230, 2340, last night (0819/20) and again at 0230 this morning (0820/20). Whatever I had captured on my iPhone camera the night before, was no longer there. One of the things that puzzled me about this event, was that in the past I have attempted to photograph the full moon, with this same iPhone camera, and have been unable to even come close to the clarity I achieved while taking photos of this phenomenon.

WHITE ROUND LIGHT VERY VERY HIGH UP GOING FROM NORTH TO SOUTH IN THE EAST SKY AROUND 0430 CST. HUGE BRIGHT STAR UNDER IT. WENT ACROSS THE SKY THEN DISAPPEARED. WAY TO HIGH UP TO BE A COMMERCIAL AIRPLANE. IT GOT NEAR THE BIG STAR THEN I COULDNT SEE IT ANYMORE.IT DID NOT STREAK OR CHANGE COLORS OR ZIG ZAG. SEEMED LIKE A STRAIGHT PATH.

Evansville, IN
I was outside on my phone when I saw a flash or a blink of white light in the sky. Followed by another about from my perspective 3ft from one another way far away. It looked like a star winked 2x but never seen the blink come back until about 10seconds later it looked as if a small rocket launched from the area of the wings and was green in color followed by a glowing tail of light and then disappeared within seconds and never saw another blink or star appear it was just nothing. The strangest thing I have encountered in a while.

Glencoe, OK
So I went out to smoke a cigarette around 00:16 and I noticed a chrome colored pipe shaped craft with red and green lights flashing all over it. It hovered about 30 feet above the ground for little over five minutes then started doing like a baton really fast then shot up high into the sky where it continued to hover and stopped spinning almost immediately then made several diagonal maneuvers doing away with any question it was a drone as was my first thought. About the time it started shaking or vibrating in the air it took off out of veiw followed by a bright green flash I didn't know what to do. The following night as I'm weighting this report same time I have currently seen it again but some distance away than it was before. And right when I noticed it was the same craft it took off in a bolt of green again.

Noticed a bright light traveling north to south, at first thought maybe low flying plane but it had no visible strobe lights. After about 3 or 4 seconds it appeared to drop a second light that slowly flickered out as it fell. A couple seconds after it dropped the light it completely disappeared. no clouds in the sky, perfectly clear night. never seen anything like that before, kinda odd...

Dallas, OR
1 red/yellow flashing light surrounding ORB in the sky. Once We noticed it we focused in more trying to videotape and noticed what seemed to be multiple crafts blinking in different color sequences. Blue/Red x2 and the Yellow/red one looked to be the biggest one and the others were blinking to the large one. The large one spits out another small orb at high speed and it disappeared. Came inside to find somewhere to report to see if anyone else is seeing this. It is not 23:21 and te Large Red/Yellow is still there pulsating.

It was a clear, dark night in The Connecticut sky around 10PM when my friend and I were on the way to get me home when what I thought at first was a shooting star, but then it was beyond too big to be that. It’s was hurling across the sky in a speed I’ve never seen before leaving a trail blazing behind it. The object appeared green like a gas like green glow was around it and I eventually saw it disenegrate as the atmospheric pressure could have caused that. My friend and I were in shock and had never seen anything like it. There were no posts, nothing from NASA, just nothing that was bringing up the potential sighting of this object. It was unreal.

Crestview, FL
I walked outside to smoke and had just looked up to my tree line after lighting my cigarette and noticed large bright lights through the trees,to the North. Upon seeing the object I was a little startled because it had no sound. It took a second to realise that it wasn't making any noise. Once I came to the realisation that it wasn't making any noise, I grabbed my phone and ran to the end of my driveway in hopes of getting a video. I guess I was so startled by the fact that it changed direction almost instantly that I didn't hit record. Once it cleared the tree line you could visibly see it was triangular in shape since we had some bad weather and lightning was lighting up the sky every 15-30 second. It made almost a 90 degree turn to the left and continued to the East. It was very low flying and just cruising.

College Park, MD
In College Park, Maryland me along with 3 other people were sitting in the courtyard area of lounge chairs in the center of a large apartment building complex. After our conversation ended, we heard a very loud aircraft noise that caught our attention. Then, we watched a large disc shaped aircraft fly above us and we were all mesmerized as we watched it fly over for the next 3 to 5 seconds. It probably wouldn’t have caught my attention as easily if it were just a normal plane, but it wasn’t normal. It was flying too low to the ground to be a normal plane because it seemed like it was right above the tree line. The large disc had several red lights that seemed like they were leading into the middle of the aircraft. It wasn’t moving at an extremely fast speed like a lot of UFO sightings are, but it was going fast enough to the point where we were only able to analyze it for a few seconds and then it was gone.

Three of my friends and I were sitting outside in a courtyard, surrounded by apartment buildings in College Park, MD. Around 10 pm we all heard a noise that sounded like a low flying plane. When we looked up, there was a disk-shaped object pretty low to the building that flew overhead. It wasn’t moving very fast, but we only got a quick look at it since the building blocked the rest of our view. The object had red lights in a circular shape with a circular bulge coming down in the center.

We were sitting in a court yard surrounded around apartment buildings. I was looking at my phone and there was a loud aircraft noise. It was obvious the sound was some type of aircraft, but it was louder than normal. Maybe due to the fact that we were in the court yard. It was a unique noise that caught your attention. One of my friends said “oh my god.” As I looked up I saw half of what I believe was a UFO. This is aircraft of some sort was LARGE the width was the size of the apartment. The half I saw was a circular/saucer shape and it had red dots going around the outer side then there were red dots leading to the middle of it to a red circle. It wasn’t going fast and it wasn’t going slow. It was memorizable. This is nothing I have NEVER seen before. This thing was flying very low too!!! It was actually real. You might get this a lot, but I have never went to lengths to do this shit for real.

the four of us were sitting in the courtyard surrounded by apartment buildings in college park maryland. we heard an extremely loud sound, louder than normal so if caught our attention and we looked up and saw a giant aircraft that spanned half the size of the apartment buildings fly over us extremely low, probably near the tree line. it was a disc shape with another smaller circle in the middle of it and a few red circle light around the edges. it flew right over the opening of the apartment building so we only saw it for a few seconds before it was out of sight

Looking out at the stars son and I noticed red craft come on like a beacon go off about six times then it did this with several times coming back in various spots facing the ocean from Baldwin county kiva dune area south west locations then seen multiple craft at various spots come on like lights all around them then they went off several times through out evening we did. Hear military craft but I have seen puff in combat this wasn’t it. It wasn’t flares and it went on and off then the final time they all went off together leaving us befuddled

Beddington, ME
Myself, fiancé and our two children ages 7 and 10 were out on a night time 4 wheeler ride. We were at our camp on Beddington Lake and like to ride out to the blueberry fields to star gaze. We noticed a light that looked like maybe a star in the sky to our north zig zagging around. It looked to be over the area of Mopang Lake, north of route 9 in Beddington. It moved up and down, left to right at pretty fast speeds. It was able to change opposite directions at max speed. It would move north eventually disappearing from sight, only to come back a few minutes later. The family was terrified and wanted to go back to the camp but I insisted on staying to watch. After about 15 minutes of observing, my fiancé and son announced seeing another object to the East. It was a little bigger which I think means it was probably closer. It also appeared to have an orangish color to it. It too would zig zag around almost as if it were surveying an area. Both objects eventuall! y moved off in the distance. Also during this sighting a large and intense white flash was seen in the sky above us.

Disk shaped object blinking red and green lights was seen being followed by 3 low-flying planes with bright lights. A neon green ball of light fell from one of these crafts into trees and then they all flew away.

Warrington, PA
I was driving on Almshouse Rd. in Warrington heading towards Route 611. I passed by a development to my left that is before the old Redner’s Supermarket. This development was on a hill and was directly behind Redner’s. I happened to look in my rear view and saw what looked like a dark gray plane that was directly on top of a house. It looked like it landed on its roof. This was a ufo that had black windows and looked like a plane with its lights off. There was no sound anywhere and I remember saying to myself,”that’s weird”.I remember time had stopped and everything was in slow motion when I saw it. I don’t know if I entered some sort of space-time warp but once I passed the area by about a minute and half, time went back to normal. I have seen numerous UFOs in that area. The UFOs I have seen are definitely bending time and space and I’m incredibly lucky and blessed to see them. I know I wasn’t the only one to have seen that particular UFO parked on top of a house, so I’m entering this UFO report in the event someone else or many people saw what I saw. Thank you!

Pencil shaped object moving quickly north/northeast on a skew at a distance as viewed from bus on southbound NJ turnpike.At first appeared to be a gliding bird but distance,speed and lack of wing movement negated that idea. Object continued on straight path until out of view

Caught my eye because it was really high, leaving a short contrail. Looked like a small company jet but seemed to be moving faster than anything else I’m used to seeing. It quickly stayed on a south south west direction. It may have been a glare, but as it went onward it seemed to have a glow like a small fireball.

Bristow, VA
My wife and I were at a stoplight, we look to our right (southeast) and see what appears to be a row of about eight super bright lights tightly packed together in a straight line. It was stationary and in plain sight about 1,500 feet off the ground. We stared at it for about 90 seconds never seeing it budge from it's spot in the sky. The traffic light turned green, prompting us to turn left. I made a u-turn about 150 feet down the road and once we were facing back towards where we saw it, we no longer find anything in the sky anywhere for the next 5 minutes. Also, I don't know if it is worth mentioning, but I did see a few interesting cloud formations that stood out and seemed out of place near by.

Holland, MI
I am a recently retired Engineering Standards Lead for a major aviation company. On August 18, 2020, my wife and I were riding our bikes and took a break at approximately 3:15 PM. We typically rest in a grassy area adjacent to a golf course about 3 miles from Lake Michigan, where we have a clear view of most of the sky. We saw a couple commercial jet aircraft, and one that we watched heading east seemed to be a bit different from the usual aircraft we see. Shortly after that plane flew over, we saw two white objects that appeared a bit oval in shape, flying east at about twice the speed of the other jet aircraft we observed. The objects then varied their flight path and turned to the south east, where we lost track of them in some clouds. We haven't been able to find any other info about the incident.

Occurred while driving on Ellington Pkwy north on the I65 north entrance ramp. Witnessed a black square hovering completely still in the sky on the northeast side of the ramp. It looked like a piece of the atmosphere had been punched out in a pitch black square shape. Birds flying near the object made it appear that it was about the same height in the sky. After online research I found a video of an object filmed in California by a man in March 2019 that looks exactly like what I saw.
