Lights following on same west East path. Same distance from each other going same path. 18 in a ton. Same distance same path. 1 of the final crafts increased in light brilliantly than went back to original brightness. Satellites? Never seen that many going in the same path before

I was bird watching. And I'm looking in the sky and something caught my attention. White I saw the color solid white. And I see what I think is a big bird like and owl. I'm watching this thing flying but only in a downward circle. Every couple of downward descents that it made it flaw its wings but only once kind of like a glider then flap and it shine a shiny spot like when the sun is shining and the lite reflects it. I looked away for 3 seconds and it completely disappeared. It was gone .

I was walking my dog down a dark un-lit road around 3am on Saturday morning April 18th 2020. While looking forward, I noticed light coming from over my shoulder, expecting it to be a car headlights I turned around and immediately noticed upwards in the sky and rather close to the ground (under the clouds) was a very large fast moving sphere/circle of light moving across the sky. It was definitely a physical object. It disappeared into the horizon behind the trees and into the clouds.

Went out to my car in the middle of the night to have a cigarette (feels safer being in the car) once i was done, i felt nervous going inside so i called a friend to stay on the line while I walk to the door. I say hi when she answers and step out of my car. I see a reflection in the grass in my neighbors yard. I look directly above into the sky and i see these flashing green lights, that are also moving and flowing through the sky, but not leaving the boarder of a hexagon shape. I started to scream, scaring my friend. All i could say was "lights!! Lights!!!" I stare for what feels like a lifetime, then realizing what could happen and that i could be in danger i run back into my car, lock the door, and try to show my friend on face time. As soon as the camera flips it is gone. Has anyone else seen this??

Lake Mary, FL
At about 12:30 AM on April 18th, 2020 (last night), I saw what at first looked like lights from a plane very low at H.E. Thomas Parkway and 46A just near and above the 7-11. Then I realized it was hovering. There was nobody on the road so I slowed down and stopped for a quick second to look up at it a little closer. It was a quick look so I will describe just what I saw as I saw it. When I looked at it, I thought I saw a shape similar to a fuselage of a plane but the way it hovered was not like that. I am not totally sure what the full shape was because it was covered by a thin veil of clouds. Because I first thought it was a plane/tube shape, I marked Cigar but again, it was cloudy and it could have had more characteristics than that. The object was either fairly close to the ground or very large. There were different white and red lights on the object. The object hovered just above some very low lying clouds for the duration that I drove past the area (Maybe a minute or two). It looked too large to be any drone I have seen before. I was googling sightings in the area to see if I was completely crazy and came across a video posted from the same are in February with very similar looking lights hovering in the same area. Here is a link to the video that looks similar. https://youtu.be/KcBPLRBbg8U

My husband and I were driving last night and I was watching this bright orange light slowly rise straight up above the tree line. The further we drove the higher it rose until I told him to pull over so we could watch and see what it was. As soon as we did that it disappeared. It was not blinking or flashing. It was bright and big enough to tell that it wasn't a star or something else. It went straight up and as soon as we stopped to watch it was gone!

A few nights ago I noticed when I went out on my deck a very bright light which resembled a star from the Northwest side. It was a clear day & night so I figured it was just an extremely bright star. I watched it for over an hour which it was slowly going down until I could no longer see it behind the building next to us. I even showed my husband. Well, it’s back tonight right now. Same place, we’ve been watching it for about 10 minutes now, I decided to take a vid, you can see a plane pass by with blinking lights, the vid is a bit blurry since the thing is so bright. But you can see it doesn’t move & the plane does. I could be completely wrong & it could be a very bright star...I wish you all could see what we see instead of the vid, I have an iPhone XR I took the recording of. It’s still there if anyone reads this & wants to take a closer look maybe with a telescope which we don’t have.

Witnessed lights traveling in straight line from SW to NE, quite evenly spaced. Several sets of 2 traveling side by side. There were approximately 36. Seemed to other random movements off to the sides of the line, but not as bright. The ones in the line were very bright.

I was outside looking northwest, talking with my husband, when I looked up and saw approximately nine circular objects moving in a formation from the west to the Northeast. I was dumbfounded so I told my husband to look up and he saw it too. They were similar to the look of a satellite that you see in the night sky. They were moving slower than that however. I began to count the amount that I saw and in overtime it was 59 total. They initially started in large groups and then slowly went down to three, two, and then single crafts. The two that I saw together moved simultaneously from the west to northwest next to each other. At the same time that these crafts were moving I began to see two other crafts from the south to the north that crossed paths with these other objects. I then knew for sure that they were not Aircrafts. The to the cross the Paz, flash really bright lights for about two seconds, and then went black flashed again and went black. I also saw in the horizon directly to the north two very bright lights that look like an explosion that went horizontally across the horizon from the east to the west. These were unlike any sort of shooting star or meteorite I have ever seen before. I decided to call my sister and my mom who live an hour south of me, they both went outside and saw the same things I was seeing. When I was on the phone with my sister one of the single crafts close to the end of the group, became very bright, I describe it the brightness of the sun and then turned completely black. My sister on the phone saw the exact same thing. I then knew that these were not Aircrafts if she is an hour south of me and she is seeing the same thing. At around 1113 I didn’t see any more so I decided to go back inside. During this time, I did see one airplane, that I heard and saw different lights on it. It was very distinct. These objects were not like that at all and made no sound.

Looked like satellites but lower and saw two collide and change direction. Some seem to be on a formation and would just appear out of nowhere almost like a tunnel coming out of the sky.

Tonight at approximately 10 pm I stepped out on my porch to look at the stars, when I noticed two "stars" evenly spaced moving across the sky, then another, then another, in what appeared to be slow flying, high altitude crafts, all evenly spaced apart, heading in a straight line toward the north east. I called my husband after I witnessed about 8 of them, and he joined me on the porch. We watched at least another 5 or 6, appearing one at a time from the south west, evenly spaced, traveling at the same speed, and disappearing in the north eastern sky. My husband went back into the house, and I grabbed my phone to call my brother who lives about 5 miles away. He stepped outside and together, we watched them come again and again. That phone call lasted about 10 minutes, we saw at least another 6 together. I needed to know I wasn't alone in seeing these. Very strange and a bit scary. They subsided at approximately 10:20 pm. I have written to Wood Tv 8 and to Gerald R. Ford International Airport to see if I can get an explanation of what these air craft might have been, and am awaiting a response.

My girlfriend and I went outside to smoke a cigarette and noticed a "train" of lights directly overhead moving SW to NE, I've looked into the Starlink stuff and am unconvinced. I don't know how long it had been going on beforehand, but by the time we noticed, they were spaced a fair distance apart and were not in a perfect line. Some slowed down, seemingly to let others pass. Initially it was a line, then there was a Chevron formation of 3 that eventually broke to let one pass. They turned slightly at a specific point in the sky. After about 20 minutes of a steady stream of them, they traffic cleared up and stragglers continued to appear. When at a certain point overhead, they would get very bright and back to the average luminosity. They were very fast in our opinion, but were able to adjust speed. If they were all in a straight line like I've seen for Starlink I'd believe that to be the case, but that's not what happened.

At approximately 22:00 hrs. There were a line of satellite like objects passing overhead from the west to northwest direction white lights one after another. There were two side by side two separate times then one about every 30 seconds for approximately 10 objects then spaced out to 3 to 4 minutes for the remainder of them.Not sure of the 28 to 30 objects as I went in the house to get my witness. I continued to watch until the last smaller and less bright object pasted overhead as it did off to the left side of it two very bright flashes occurred and that was it.

I was sitting outside in my hot tub which is faced directly south. To the SW is the Eugene airport. I observed two white lights traveling generally towards my position but to the west a bit. I often observed aircraft near EUG but these lights were not taking off or landing. I noticed the two lights never changed their distance from each other and that they were not blinking. They were white and no other color was seen. As the lights came close it seemed between the two lights there were many more small, white lights; One to two dozen perhaps. To the west of our deck are some tall trees and the lights stayed above that horizon. As I saw them I started thinking, those lights have to be about 15,000 feet and I can not see an outline of a craft! I was in the Air Force and have seen many types of aircraft. This, appeared much larger than anything I have experienced and it was triangular. A bright light in the front and one in the back, with several small lights scattered on it’s underneath. I got out of the water and moved so I could see it continue NNE. We live in a south facing hill and it disappeared beyond as I looked North. As I clearly saw the outline of the craft at its altitude the distance front and aft was about two inches from my vantage. I never heard any sound that would be expected from an aircraft flying in proximity. I hurried into the house told my wife and then called my brother who had a significant sighting many years ago.

Tumwater, WA
Me and my brother were outside in the front of his yard when a series of bright oval/small pill shaped UFO’s in a line formation spaced equally apart came from South heading NE in the Tumwater area of Olympia we even had time to get his wife. A few formed a strange triangle formation before continuing NE. They were in the sky within our site for about 15 - 20 minute. They were moving really fast We tried searching for who to call or report it too but don’t know how to go about that other than post it on here. Still trying to wrap my head around it

The 38 craft were first seen flying over Casper, Wyo. A few minutes later they were spotted 2 hours away in Riverton, Wyo. They flew in an almost perfect line heading ENE. They were bright white lights, 38 in total.
