Most days I like to sit on my front porch and just take pictures of the sky and clouds and sometimes I get an image of something I don't recognize..Living close to Johnson Space Center & Joint Base Ellington we see quite a few objects in the sky day and night. Today was no exception, I captured an object sitting stationary in the sky to the S.E and below the clouds . I have pictures and will send with this report.

Baldwin Park, CA
UFO Sighting Event and report date: 5-19-2020. At approximately 6:05 am (right where El Monte and Baldwin Park [in CA] meet), while driving on the freeway, in the morning blue sky I saw a very bright and very sharp chrome colored light about the size of large star in the sky at about 45 degrees up. After watching said light for about 5 seconds and tripping out on its unique qualities, the light began to fade away very slowly and very smoothly. The light did not appear to move. When I first saw the light, I thought it was a star (it was stationary like a star), but I quickly realized that it was far too bright outside (sky was blue) to be a star. Then I realized that this light was far sharper than any star, and this light did not twinkle or change colors like a star. It most definitely was not a star. I knew it was not Venus because again it was far too bright outside to see any planets, and the light I saw was much smaller than Venus which is huge during this time of year. Also, Venus’s light has a clear white color whereas this light I saw a had a chrome or kind of colorless “color.” Then I deduced it was not an airplane or helicopter because this object was stationary and there was only a single solid light, no aircraft body, no blinking lights. At that time of day if it were an airplane or helicopter, I would have been able to see it. But it was just a light. It was at this point that the hair on the back of neck started to stand up and I realized this is VERY WEIRD! About One second after feeling this “omg!” feeling the light began to fade, but fade in a very kind of subtle and smooth way. It was an extremely smooth and measured fading of the light. As the light was fading, seemingly in reaction to my “omg!” reaction, I was yelling out loud (alone in the car) “what the heck is that! OMG! Its fading away!? What the f*ck!!! It was truly bizarre. The light reminded me of a magnifying glass focusing the suns light—it was a very sharp and very focused light, easily the sharpest light I had ever seen in the sky. And its chrome “color” was unlike anything I’d ever seen in the sky. If the light was fading because it was moving farther away from me then the light was heading to outer space. From my location to the light’s location and angle, if it moved away from me it would be vectored towards outer space.

Loveland, CO
Object is located high in S to S.E. sky and is visible with naked eye. Object appears as three to four colored orbs (orange, yellow, white) forming a cross, and the halo appears to be triangular in shape. The object appears stationary and randomly fluctuates in light intensity, sometimes blinks out and is non-visible. Have seen many times during the year and moves from S.E. to S.W. and high in sky. Observed from upper home window looking above house to the South to S.E.

Portland, OR
my house is approximately 1/4 mile from pdx(Portland airport) i am to the south of eastbound approach and can see aircraft taking off and landing. Last night at around 8:45 pm I was on my back porch talking to a family member on the phone when I noticed a right circular light just above the pdx east bound approach about 500 feet off the ground and if air traffic where coming into pdx this object would of interfered with landing trajectory. The object moved sporadically in different directions for just over a half hour and the light would go brighter at times and the color would change from bright white to bluish. At first I thought maybe a drone but I myself am a drone pilot and quickly realized it was not a drone because I can't even launch my drone anywhere near the airport because of strict FAA regulations with all drones being GPS enabled when i do try to launch my drone it won't go more then 3 feet off the ground with warnings and alarms going off. I ! have a very clear two minute video of the sighting.

Darien, GA
Tonight, while sitting behind a truck stop in Darien, GA,I was outside looking up to try and see meteors. While looking I noticed three dim lights in the shape of a triangle. I also noticed the body shape. It was traveling from south to north at a slow to medium speed. It looked to be about a half mile up. I hope that someone else out there saw it too.

Prinville, OR
This event took place 15 miles SW of Prineville, OR. GPS Coordinates: 44.204652, -120.895951. A bright white aura was observed at roughly 3 AM, hovering above a remote stretch of the Crooked River. My Fiancé and I were driving down SW Millican Rd when I observed a strange white light located above a non-accessible portion of the Crooked River. The center of the light was almost pure white. The elevation was roughly 200 feet above the River. As I observed the light, I witnessed the light makes an illogical movement. It moved at a steady elevation, across the river and then onto a level potion of land. This type of movement would be impossible by a convention vehicle, as there are steep cliff and no road access. The light then accelerated away from me and seemingly vanished. The movement reminded of a slot car on a track. How sudden and rapid it was. You would think hat this type of acceleration would injure almost anybody. This type of movement would be impossible by a convention vehicle, as there are steep cliff and no road access. I can confirm that this object was not a drone or RC device. There was no noise. It was so silent outside that I could hear the distant hum of Power Lines. I returned in the daytime to find that there was not a single road or even any Cattle Grates in that area of Remote BLM Land. I do mention that I felt very eerie in that moment. As if there was something else there. Like someone was watching.

In witnessing the object, another aircraft passed by very close to the first object. That aircraft passed in a steady straight line towards Nashville International Airport. I continued to watch the first object bounce up and down. After 10 minutes, the object slowly disappeared into the clouds.

Bright round light started from the right and moved to left at tree line The light moved but did not stay lt the whole time. It was intermittent as it was moving Quickly. Some times it appeared in front of tree and some behind. When thinking it zigzagged We later it may have been more than one because we saw 3 at one time at the most. We saw at least 25 of them with in the hour. The last one we saw before we left. Appeared directly in front of not off to the left as the others, still moved left until behind us. We felt we knew when they were going to show up due to the frogs becoming very loud.

On Sunday May 17, 2020 at 9:53 pm, I saw a red sphere in the sky. It was silent, and the red sphere light seemed to pulse. It moved westerly and my visual ended when it went below the roofline of the shop in my neighbors’ backyard. Initially I thought it was the planet Mars, just particularly brilliant. But when I realized it was not stationary, I snapped a quick photo and then returned to the house to get my husband. We both returned to the backyard and it was moving and seemed closer to us and moved westerly. It appeared to have a whitish haze around the sphere that emanated about two times as wide (also circular habit seemed dimmer on the upper left side) as the red pulsing sphere and the aura lasted only a few seconds, then it returned to a solid pulsing red color (my husband saw it pulsing red and blue). I’m not even sure if I would call it solid. It soon was starting to go behind the large silver maple tree in my neighbors’ backyard so I walked! about 40 feet south so I could continue to keep a visual on it. I was able to capture several short videos on my iPhone and then it appeared to turn southerly and seemed to be moving away from us moving in a southwest direction and downward rather quickly. This whole experience lasted from 9:53-9:54 (21:53-21:54) before it moved out of my sight because a structure was blocking my view. I believe it was about 50° off the ground when I initially saw it and when I lost sight of it, it was about 25° off the ground. It appeared to be a bit larger than Mars is to the naked eye and I approximate it did appear to get a bit larger as it moved across the sky. There were few clouds in the sky mostly toward the north (none in the area that the object traveled) and there was no wind.

I decided to step out in the apartment balcony, when I noticed an object traveling in an Easter direction. Without any noise or the usual safety beacon lights an aircraft or unmanned drone would have. I tried to filming the object but it increased its speed making it difficult for me to film while trying to keep my smart phone steady. I eventually lost sight of the object.

While sitting in our boat night fishing with 6 year old grand daughter we saw a bright red light high in the sky and it come from nowhere. I started to film with my iPhone so I couldn’t zoom in real good. I decided to take a photo and when I did it vanished. When looking at photo I decided to hold down photo and view live action. While taking the pic we saw that it didn’t just vanish but flew off at a high speed and then it was gone. The sky was very clear last night with no clouds and being on the Lake there were no lights around. The bright red Solid object was moving at a good speed. There were no blinking lights or anything. The images I captured were no great but the Live Photo did show it vanish quickly.

had just seen the ISS in the sky after my startracker app alerted me. about a minute after it disappeared, what appeared to look like a bright star could be seen at 90 degrees, directly overhead, heading east from the west. i immediately referred to the tracker and could not identify the object as a satellite or anything. i began filming with my phone, even though it wasn't visible on the screen, i thought maybe it would show if i lightened the video later. this is how i managed to capture this crazy sound, it sounded like a frequency being tuned, or a microphone feeding back. it seemed omnipresent, got louder for about 10 seconds and then quickly faded away. about 15 seconds later the object disappeared.

Light came in like a shooting star and then started to float as a plane would. The light seemed to move way faster then a normal plane, there were no indications of flashing lights as planes do. It looked like a bright star as it soared across our sky line until it got to the horizon and bolted upwards and vanished.

I was standing outside at around 15:05 this afternoon when I noticed several small objects traveling due South at what appeared to be very high altitude. there were at least 7 or 8 of them in a very loose group. they were either producing green reflections, or were lit with a brilliant green color. At times some were visible, at other times they would disappear, and other noes would become visible. the weather was mostly clear and I was able to get a few photos, although none are very clear. I have worked on aircraft most of my life and these did not appear to be conventional planes. Planes flying together normally fly in some sort of formation rather than a loose random group. There was no order to their group. They continued flying South at what appeared to be a cruise speed, not in any hurry, until I lost sight of them.

It was a black object moving north. At first I though it was a buzzard. It going about 100 to 150 mph at about 1000 ft. It was going too fast and a straight to be a buzzard. There was a 737 flying above it at about 5000 ft. It was a clear day and no clouds. It was shaped like the object from the U.S. Navy video ,not the the tictac object. It was not a buzzard because they never fly in a straight line. The 737 was flying much faster that the object. There was no sound from the object but I could hear the 737.

I was a passenger in a Ford Tacoma 4 x 4. I looked over my right shoulder towards the north over a tall mountain range. I saw a white ball motionless as if it were hovering. I watched the ball for about five minutes thinking after driving I would lose visual. As we kept driving for approximately 20 minutes I maintained visual on the craft. It did not seem to move but maybe it was going the same Same speed as the car. It looks like a perfect sphere ball sometimes almost silver. It was several miles away from me and hovering approximately 8 to 15,000 feet in the air. Are used a Phone app called binoculars and attempted to get a closer view from my moving car. As I did so I for a brief short moment was able to look at the craft. It seemed a perfect circle. It was white and silver and seems almost motionless. As I focused my binocular apps on the possible craft it would seem to blur as if it had changed so the light from the sun was causing it to be silver or gy! rate almost. It made it hard to get a good picture. I watched this fear for at least 15 minutes probably more before I lost sight of it and it was nowhere to be found. There were no lights no wings. It was seems to be just hovering at times but seem to be able to stay in my view. There were no other planes around there were no lights it was over a mountain range and pure desert. It seemed very out of place and almost ominous in a fact to where I could not keep my eyes off of it. It was just a white bar possibly silver hovering above the mountain range and some white going with the speed of my car allowing me to keep ice on it for a short amount of time.
