Snohomish, WA

While sitting in my car visiting with my sister, I looked up to the dark,clear, night sky and saw 2-3 large, BRIGHT Orange orbs, that initially I thought to be Chinese lanterns, but as I continued to stare, they were not behaving like lanterns or drones, and I pointed them out to my sister, and we got excited, and out of the car to get a better look, at which time she exclaimed-’GRAB our phones and take photos”, so we did. I took a few and then also a 2 minute video. WE were in AWE, as the way they behaved and looked, was of NOTHING of this world or technology. They were intensely orange and almost seemed to hover at first, and looked to be in a sort of formation/relation to each other, then went from hover to forward motion, in sync, maintaining perfect distance from each other. WE noticed NO NOISE or sound from them, and it was a VERY QUIET evening. One seemed to disappear, then THREE more appeared! We watched them fly from the north towards the south, in the Eastern view of the skyline, and then out of sight or disappeared, we couldn’t tell? This took probably a period of about 5-7 mins total, as my video was two minutes long etc...wishing of course, it was of BETTER quality, as I was so excited, and tried to zoom in on them a couple of times.

Sapulpa, OK

Flashing object had a duration of 15 seconds, starting from the bottom of the cup of the big dipper, and ending in the direct middle of the sky (looking straight up) having a flashing pattern of one very bright flash followed by two faint flashes, a half second later

Smokey Point, WA

I was stargazing outside looking north and saw with my eyes than through binoculars a Flashing orangish red light on what looked like an oval shaped craft. It looked stationairy but after 20 minutes I could tell it was slowly moving across the sky. Way too low to be a satellite/planet but barley moved at all. I'd say I'd say it was maybe 2000 ft in the sky? It was just blinking different colors between orangish red to greenish blue than back to a dark red. I really want to know what it was I saw because I've never seen anything like it.

Coon Rapids, MN

Tumbling flashing object moving west to east southeast at a relatively slow pace. Not a plane flashing. Very high up like a satellite. Would flash at irregular intervals. Bright white flash similar to an iridium flare. Continued heading east-southeast and got very dim. Could no longer see it after some time. I was unable to capture the object on video but did take photos when it flashed.

Glenwood, ME

We were with a large group of family in July 2020. We were staying on an island in wytopitlock lake, glenwood, maine. Some family members were on the beach around 10:15PM when they spotted a light in the sky that was moving at a very fast and unpredictable speed. These family members called over to others who came down to beach and saw the same phenomena. One member was able to take a video (see attached) where you can see a bright light in the sky that is not moving in a straight line like a plane, this object was dropping and rising at a very fast speed and also flew away at an unexpected speed.

Broadway, VA

I was sitting on my neighbor's back porch eating pizza and chitchatting. I noticed my neighbor was watching something in the sky for a moment longer than usual. I looked up and saw that she was looking at something. It was a light, as high up as an airplane, not blinking or going at usual speed (Color was not odd.. not red, blue, or green) (It was a yellow or white). It was a little larger than an airplane, but was going twice as fast. It was eye catching because it was not a satellite but lower on an airplane level... and going at an unusually faster speed. It definitely was not a low airplane or a drone. My neighbor said, "What is that?" I said with authority, louder voice, and no fear, "That is a UFO. The Great Deception ." As soon as I said this, it slowed down to half or more speed and glowed up to 4x its size. My neighbor, daughter, and I felt that it saw us. It actually felt like it took a picture of us from so far up.

Harpersfield, OH

At about 9:40pm I went outside to walk my dog. I often watch the stars, and am fairly familiar with the night sky. As I headed South, I saw an unfamiliar very bright white “star” under Neptune. It was as bright as Neptune, but not as large, and hovering just above the tree line. I was excited to see a new star and pulled my phone out to open the star app (Sky Guide) I use to identify stars. As I opened the app, I watched the “star” slowly move closer to me and then gently “float” up and diagonally into the space between Neptune and Saturn. It then moved diagonally rather quickly towards Saturn (Northeast) then up again. It did not move like a floating object. There was a definite flight like intentional pattern to its movement. Although, I’ve never seen an aircraft move in the manner like the object I observed. The object seemed to turn and change from a bright white to a softer amber glow. I then could make out three dimmer lights in place of the single amber color. Then the amber colors slowly dimmed simultaneously very similarly to how a flame might extinguish. Since I do like to observe the night sky and identify the objects I see, I opened an app I use to identify aircraft (Flightradar24). There were no aircraft in the area. I’ve seen Chinese lanterns in the sky, but this was not a Chinese lantern. It did not move in a straight line through the sky like a meteor or satellite.

Siloam Springs, AR

I looked up into the sky and saw three white lights alternating in a triangular pattern near to me. The lights themselves were circular. First, the top light would show up, then the bottom right light, then the bottom left. They could never be seen at the same time. It then repeated and I ran inside. I went back out an hour later and saw that the city had four searchlights pointing in the direction of my neighborhood, exactly where I had seen the lights before. I live in the middle of a neighborhood where the houses are close to each other. I have never seen anything like this before.

North Powder, OR

This is really odd hearing you on Coast to Coast replay today (July 24, 2020) and then we saw an orb in the sky and video recorded it outside Baker City, Oregon, near North Powder, Oregon. We reside in Cove, Oregon, and had traveled to Boise, Idaho, to visit our nearest Costco. We drove our motor home which travels a bit slower than our other vehicles and came back around 7:30 p.m. At about 8:45 p.m., we were traveling westbound on Interstate 84 at milepost 278, we observed an orange translucent orb stationary above the The Blue Mountains which was southwest from the Interstate and is just south of Ladd Canyon. Our windshield was pretty buggy but you can still see it right above the mountain until it dropped below to the other side and was out of visual range. It had a orange look to it but partially translucent. The moon was much higher in the sky and the sun had already dropped below the mountain ridge. We are self employed and I recently retired as a Sergeant with the Oregon State Police. My wife and I are both prior military. Never have we seen anything like this and had to share with you. I've never ever reported anything like this either. We emailed a link of the video to the director email. Please let me know if you are unable to view it... Thank you!

Lewisville, TX

In north Dallas, at the border of Lewisville, the Colony, and Frisco, on July, 24th of 2020, around 10:30 AM, I was sitting out on my apartment patio, when I caught a glimpse of a solid, luminating, white object in the crystal-clear blue sky. At first thinking it was a drifting plastic Walmart bag, I thought nothing of it. But then I noticed it was too far away for me to think that it was a garbage bag. It wasn’t big by any means but around the length of 3-5 miles in the air, I wouldn’t be able to see a plastic Walmart bag so clearly. I then pulled out my iPhone and began to record. I ended up getting 10 good seconds of it. It was moving from the North to the South (Right to left according to my view), appearing to look like a plastic bag would drifting mid-air. But after I viewed my recording zoomed all the way in, it appeared to be possibly circulating(spinning), and sides dipping up and down similar to a teetertotter. It escaped my sight of my patio as it passed below the roof of the adjacent apartment in front of me. Out of curiosity, I quickly ran down and out to the parking lot beneath me to see if I could catch another glimpse of the flying object. I just wanted to see if it was a plastic bag or not. It took me precisely 1.5 minutes to get in position where I should have had a clear view. The object wasn’t where it should have been had it continued its speed and course. I looked for a matter of maybe 20 seconds and then spotted it again. I am from North Dakota. I have visited sights and many national parks where I have been shown what 10-20 miles away looks like to the naked eye. According to my eye, this object turned west and was about 15+ miles away from where I had seen it on my patio. What I’d compare it to was looking at a star in a night’s sky; except it was day light at 10:30 in the morning. Now we live in an area close to the DFW airport. Hundreds if not thousands of planes fly over our area per day. A plane is really the easiest thing to notice. However, it is something that is really hard to mistake. When you see a plane, you see a plane. It moves at the same pace, it most of the time is going in the same direction. At one point it can be close. After a few moments it will pass and be gone as you watch it get further and further away. This was nothing like that. It was not a plane. I have video to prove that. This was something else. As I watched it in the west, it was moving right to the left at a very slow pace not getting any further away than it already was. A light seemed to be going in and out on it like a glimmer in the sun. Not like the light blinking on the air plane. It wasn’t moving at a consistent pace. It would move left, then stop, then movie left, then stop. As I was watching, I was recording with my iPhone. It was hard to keep a clear and still image due to the distance between me and the object. I couldn’t’ even see it on my phone. It was bright out and I was squinting. I just aimed my phone at the area and hoped that I could see it later on my phone. I was able to but it is blurry and not still unfortunately. You are able to follow it though on my phone. It was coming up on a cloud and I didn’t want to miss the last part. I put my phone down and then what I saw next was uncertain. I was squinting and it was bright. I could have seen a lot but the sun was behind me. When I say that, I mean that it wasn’t obstructing my vision. It just created a bright atmosphere to my eyes were having a more difficult time staying wide open. I may or may not have seen this object, do a full loop up and down then disappear NE in the matter of a second. After questioning what I had seen, I looked for the object which wasn’t quite to the cloud ! yet and it was nowhere to be seen. Almost no time after, one of the hundreds of planes that fly over us flew right into the area that the object had been. This took place over the time span of maybe 4-6 minutes, start to finish. The weather this day was partly cloudy, mostly blue skies. The wind was little to non. There wasn’t the sound of a plane flying by. There were no plumes. It was just a white odd shaped ball you could see spinning and dipping. An interesting way to end the week.

A constant light that did not have a tail and covered enough space to be moving 10x faster than a plane. I have seen a shooting star and a plane. Was not that. Too far away to get a picture.

Independence, MO

**This is an AMENDED report with correct date** At approximately 04:30 this morning, an apparently triangle shaped aircraft with lights on three corners and an additional light on the center of the bottom of the aircraft. The three equally spaced lights on the apparent corners were white or very light orange. The center light appeared to be made up of a white and red light; it appeared as if the bottom light was a red light "engulfed" by white light. I viewed the aircraft as it approached toward my line of sight from the direct south at a relatively low altitude, probably less than 1000 feet. The craft was traveling slowly, slower than I have seen an airplane fly, and as it continued away from me towards the north, the appearance of what would be the lights on the rear corners changed appearance, and began to resemble the center light, as a red light surrounded by white lights. The red portion of the rear lights (which appeared as being on the left and right) were blinking in a synchronized fashion, ie, there was still a white light on the front and corners, but the two "rear" lights also appeared to contain smaller red lights which blinked at the same time. The "aircraft" also made a very low-frequency pulsing sound, more like an earthquake or distant rolling thunder than any aircraft I have heard. My house is located approximately 67 miles from Whiteman AFB, and I have witnessed stealth aircraft over my house before, however this unknown object made a completely different sound than the stealth Air Force craft I have heard/seen. I have also subsequently watches videos of stealth aircraft flying at night, and it's important to note that no lights extended beyond the three equally spaced white lights, like the red and green lights seen on the wingtips of known aircraft. I was unable to discern any shape beyond what was conveyed by the three equally spaced white lights. I think it is also important to note that I do not live near an airport approach, and have never witnessed an aircraft flying along this path at any altitude or time of day. This was witnessed in my back yard, so I am quite familiar with what is normal over this piece of land.

Egg shape ufo, very bright red lights at a way too fast speed in the sky, started to bounced up and down then side to side in a speed that it is not possible, then like a car made a left turn and disappear right in front of my eyes. I try to record the event but I was shaking and didn't want to lose the ufo.

Alvin, WI

On the night of July 23 2020 I arrived at the fishing camp in rural Alvin wi along with my two good friends that I have known since middle school. I am a Marine corps veteran and my friend's dad is a US Army veteran We arrived hours late around 2330 buds central standard time. My friends dad who owns the camp is at this time sitting by the campfire. We all unpack and set up tents or racks in the garage and settle in. About a half hour into our usual formalities and during a lull in the conversation I ask my friends dad (who I consider a father to me) why he keeps looking at the sky.. he says "oh it's nothing" a little while later his son asks him the same question. He then seems withdrawn. And points to the sky where I look. I was on the same side of the campfire as him. I noticed a weird constellation a perfect equalalateal triangle the three points were the brightest points in the sky. I asked if this was what he had see be said yes but that's not! the weird part. Seconds later the triangle seemed to shed a orb or ball shaped craft that stayed all g the edge of the craft for a few minutes then wormed it's way across the sky slowly and inconsistently before stopping for a minute the darting across the sky at great speed. They also appeared out of nowhere or shot across the sky then j hooked back the way they came.The rest of the night was extremely event full we say two distinct formations of craft s Chase each other across the sky. Lesser flashes of light near the craft as if possible explosions from a distance. Also what appeared to be light beams emitted towards each other. This happened regularly at very close intervals until the sun came up and drown out the lights

Cortlandt manor, NY

I was over at my sister's house, in the backyard. The sky was clear and I happened to glance up to look at the stars when I noticed one particular "star" twinkled a little too bright. Then I realized it started moving! It was too high up to be a plane or any other object we know of and made no sound. The light pulsed brightly every 5-8 seconds and was moving in a strange pattern,almost like a zigzag motion. The object easily camouflaged within the stars. After a it seemed like it completed a circle in the sky it start ascending higher until it was no longer in sight.

New London, CT

We were sitting outside and a triangle shaped craft came from the east and moved very slowly with flashing lights on the craft, and a beam of light directly under the craft, as if it were searching for something . It went slowly then suddenly disappeared from view. This happened as lightning flashes have been going off in the same southern portion of the sky, with no noise, for over an hour. I also am experiencing strange objects coming from my skin and small unknown creatures scattering around our house at night between midnight and five a.m.

A huge, black triangular shape craft making no noise, it had huge bright round lights on the bottom, and flew just above the tree tops over my vehicle at a very slowly. It was flying from the north to the south. I stopped in the middle of the road, put my head out the window and watch it fly over. I don’t know how it stayed in the air flying so slowly. How it made no noise. Or what kind of aircraft it was. I have not seen it again.

Kennewick, WA

My wife and I observed a military aircraft escorting a glowing orb south of Kennewick, ,Washington on a date and time given. The military aircraft was following behind the object and continued the escort until it was out of sight. It approached us from the south from the direction of the Boardman bombing Range in Oregon and headed in a north easterly direction. The aircraft had clearly visible aircraft navigation lighting. The glowing orb that it was escorting had no such lighting. I am fairly certain it was a military aircraft because I could not find it on my phone app that tracks commercial aircraft. Typically, military aircraft do not show up. However, commercial aviation and general aviation aircraft do show up on that app.

It was in the afternoon around sunset, I love in tonopah Arizona and I still don’t have electricity and my pump for my water went out, we sit on 2 acres, and we have a shared well, luckily the neighbors had the well turned on so I had water pressure outside, so I told my wife I was long to shower outside and she brought the soap and my 2 sons were with me, then something catches my eye in the sky and it was a fireball with small fire balls beside it, my wife right away trout it was a meteor, I told her no because the meteor did not dissalear or impact land , what we saw was the object become a fire in the sky and moved like a snake, then that’s when you could see the lights a and the flames were gone and the lights would contract and expand a few times, I would say it was a total of 8 lights or more.then they disappeared. But not 10 seconds later you could see them again and did the same thing , contract and expand, it was exciting to see but later on some f! ear kicked in.
