Central Point, OR

At approximately 0445 on Tuesday the 14th of April 2020 I was out having my morning coffee looking up at the moon and the Mars/Jupiter conjunction and noticed what I thought to be a satellite go from NW to SE just skimming past the handle of the big dipper. To my surprise, there appears a second satellite shortly after following the same flight path. I was shocked to see a 3rd and it appeared to have the same distance between each satellite. I was astonished when I saw a 4th and then a 5th and kept watching to see no less than 17!!!!! I'm a 60+ female who has served 20 years in the Air Force first as a Military Training Instructor, then worked for NATO, followed by Survival School at Fairchild and finished up as NCOIC of the Legal Office so I have had years of experience with watching aircraft and satellites. I have never seen anything like this in my life. Were these just satellites?

Went out side at 4:30 am to look for the comet , I saw one light heading from north to south . It looked odd , then two more , followed by three more , then they just kept coming , they all followed the same path . The ones that were close to each other , traveled perfectly together .... It was strange , no sound , they were pretty high up in the air . When i saw the first one , I thought it was a satellite , but I don't think they were all satellites ..... And i couldn't see the comet yet :)

Las Vegas, NV

Out walking dog in darkness, looked up to see what appeared to ba a satellite traveling west to east, but then noticed another following in it's same path about 5 arc seconds behind, then looked west to see another and another ( all coming out of a small cloud formation floating by. There were 2 that were "out of this singular formation" as if slowly passing the object in front of it. I ran into house to grab my Celestron Binocs to see if I could detect a shape - I could not as if they were too high up, too small, or in orbit... however they were all very bright, slightly less than Sirius. After what appeared to be the last one, I continued to watch the sky and about 1 minute later, another series of these objects started to come over, about the same distance in between, but slightly faster. The path of these new objects were also west to east but slightly farther south in the sky. There was about 8 to 10 in total, in this second grouping, then a g! ap of maybe 30 seconds and then a very bright object, traveling much faster seemed to be trying to catch up. All these objects were now fading into the gathering light of dawn in the eastern sky. I tried to photograph these objects with my cell phone but it was inadequate to catch more than just a few seconds of one object. The dark sky was very still with no other objects noticed while viewing the above mentioned ones.

Davis, CA

(I live on an airport in the Central Valley. If I am facing north, to my left, about 7 miles away are the mountains containing Lake Berryessa. Because the ground is flat, to my right I can see all the way to Sacramento, thirty or so miles away. At night I can see sky scrapers. Where I am, in the sticks, is mostly void of city light. Also have you ever gone camping, away from the city, to where the sky is fuller of stars than you’ve ever seen? Have you ever spotted a satellite flying over you, on its singular strait pathed orbit? Or perhaps the international space station? It has a different path and is faster and brighter than satellites. The only reason you see the satellite, is because the sunlight is reflecting from the sun, off of them to you. And on its path, if it happens to duck behind the earth as you’re watching it. Shows the sunlight slowly start to fade as it does. Otherwise you can watch satellites travel their path for many many miles until they become dim from the curvature of the earth. They absolutely look like one solid point of light just like the surrounding stars. Get stars kind of have a slight red blue flicker to them if you really concentrate on them. I’ve also spotted what seems to be a high-altitude jet that must be secret, really high up in the stratosphere, yet leaving the usual ice trail that any regular jet would leave. I am a skydiver. I live on an airport. I grew up next to an airport. I was a ship look out in the Coast Guard. If I don’t know about anything else, I should at least be able to spot a craft in the air, on the land or sea. And be able to hypothesize as to what it is.) It was 4 am. I walked out my door facing east. Out of the corner of my left eye, my attention was brought to a satellite looking type of light. But if was almost at a fourth five degree angle from me. I turned to loo at it. It was not an aircraft. It was not blinking. It had no running lights. It was as if I was looking up in the sky and spotting a satellite way up above our atmosphere. Yet, this thing had to be about a mile away from me, at 20,000 to 30,000 ft. It was heading towards my right, with is a path towards Sacramento. (Interesting fact. At night, during normal not virus. You can watch the commercial jets flying in and out of the Sacramento airport in the way of my view of the city. All day, all night. Difference with this night. We are all coincidentally all stuck at home. No jets. No one getting up to go to work. No one to see what I was seeing.) As this thing passed me, I realize it’s being followed by another one, about a mile to three miles behind it. Same path. Same speed, which is under a hundred casual. As that one passed my position, another one behind that. Now I’m watching seven, eight, nine go passed. One of them was different. The only one out of the entire night. It was spinning in a different direction than the path it was on with its buddies. The side I was looking at, was just as bright as the rest. But once it spun its other side around. It was as bright as a strobe. Not strobing, solid light. Nothing about these things were blinking. Just a bright period floating by. At one point a second path was formed, to the side of the original path and light points. It was closer to me, and started a pattern of the same spaces light sources, but staggered from them. Now they were coming in bulk. Same configuration, but continuous. After about ten minutes, I counted fifty of these things before running back in for my iPhone. When I came back out, I had lost count. But they just kept coming. I’m in the parking lot trying to take pictures of them, but the light is too low for the phone. I start trying to call people in my area. No one picks up, other than the owner of the property I’m on. I tell him to go out and look at these things. I explain to him what to look for and he goes. These things were coming from what my perspective saw as the bottom half star of the Big Dipper. At four in the morning, if I’m looking north, the Big Dipper is to my north west. The handle is sticking strait up, ladles open in facing right to the north. The handle would be positioned over what I’d say is in the direction of Calistoga. If you follow that path, it probably brings you to the ocean after Jenner going north, and fort brag. All Mendocino county. Forrest and open land forever. No one but sleeping farmers to see. The path to my right takes them south past Lake Tahoe. If you follow that path. Well. Area 51. Over the the hour that I was out there watching. They must have realized the path they took was a bit close to sac, and too close to the ground. Because by the time the end was wrapping up, their path had gained altitude, and had corrected more south heading towards Lodi (south, the direction of the moon and Jupiter/mars). That was taking them right over my head! about a mile up. I took a picture of the last two that were together, but with an iPhone it’s garbage. I watched this go on for more than an hour, and had watched more than a hundred go past. When I was able to get my landlord up, he text me about ten minutes later and said he saw what I was seeing. By then, it died down to just about one a minute. They were still coming in when dawn broke and I could hardly see them anymore. So I went back to bed. The next morning I woke up at four, just to see if I could spot anything. I was out there for ten minutes. I spotted three. This morning I tried again. I stood out for about twenty minutes. And did spot two. But everything was so overcast. It could have been anything.

Montebello, CA

There were many light orbs I counted over 50 only in the time I noticed it. They were all going in the same direction south east . They were traveling very fast and they at times waited for each other . I searched for there origin and that's when I noticed a much larger orb about 3 of them that appeared to be shooting them out. Even saw a dual for ation right before sunrise.

Kennebunk, ME

Stepped out of house for last cigarette before bed. Looking west to a very clear sky. I noticed what I thought may have been a satellite. As always I track to see if it moves. As I was tracking I noticed another not far behind then another then another. After the third one I ran to the door and yelled for my girlfriend to come see. We counted 12 total. None following directly behind in a straight line. And not evenly spaced out. No blinking lights and nothing on flighttrader24. No moon. Reason I thought this was odd was looking west, the sun had set and the objects were illuminated (white) on the eastern side. No noise either. Sighting was around 35 degrees up from horizon.

Beaufort, SC

On or about the precise date and time my puppy Axel woke me up to go out for a walk. We were under lockdown orders via the president. Axel went down the back stairs as usual. We went into the darkness of the back path of the apartments. When we arrived at the parking lot. I believed at first we were looking at a drone. I looked and the puppy turned his head towards a craft hovering about 1 foot off the ground. The craft was silent it was about the size of 3 SUV's. The craft was turning quietly. I remember the brilliant colors of the lights purple/ indigo and red. The craft was not a perfect triangle but had rounded edges. The lights flashed faster. I remember a flash like a camera taking a picture of me. The dog and I were on the other side of the parking lot continuing our walk. I had no memory of the craft or where it went. I thought it was a drone but have recently had vivid dreams of the dog and I inside the craft. The beings looking at us. I hope it was just swamp gas and electrical charges. I am a Kindergarten teacher a well read and traveled person/ I am respected in my craft of education and have received a promotion to instructional coach. I do not believe the dog and myself could hold the same hallucination at the same time. we both turned looked and saw.

Dover, NH

It was 2:14, I was laying in bed. I felt a strange urge to look out the living room window , so I got up and went to the window . I opened the curtain , and the first place I looked there was a flying craft that looked like a line of red lights hovering ,about 5 miles away and just above the treeline. I continued to look at it as many of the red lights began to brighten . The craft continued to move further away . The red lights dimmed and became a singular white light, which became very bright momentarily,then quickly faded to a point where I could see nothing . The weather is absurd this morning . After a day of thick, heavy rainfall, the skies are completely clear and there is an unnatural, very fast wind blowing in one direction .

Pensacola, FL

Craft was moving slowly to the east/SE and appeared to be less than 1,000 feet above me as I could see flames shooting out from underneath as it went directly over my vehicle as I was driving west on Cervantes near Palafox. Estimated speed of less than 100 mph. Craft itself had a slight glow from fire propelling it but couldn't see enough to identify shape. Estimated size less than 10 meters diameter based on size of flame diameter.

5 orange lights following in formation but in a methodical way. All disappeared into a "black" part of space. Almost looked like a shooting star until 4 others followed the same direct path into "darkness" surrounded by stars... looked to be coming from orion's belt. .happened around 11 pm on 4/13.

Flat Rock, NC

I went outside to move my vehicle and noticed an odd bright light . At first I thought it was a plane waiting to land staying still for clearance but then I remembered the hour and that there are no flight coming in this late here in my town. I noticed lots of similar bluish color circle lights and some blinking at first I though planes again and was intrigued by the planes that were flying under the radar with no sound. That’s when it really hit me. I recorded the light and around it took pictures. and brought my wife out to see it also and she was confused also. We stood their for a good 3 to 4 minutes then walked in the house after researching online about these sighting . I went outside again to see if the light was there and there was nothing more the other lights I thought were stars . Black sky with some planes coming through .

Green Bay, WI

We saw a bright light moving off west of us high in the sky. It would move slowly and intermittently, mostly down and down. We normally see planes come to and from the nearby airport, but this light would stay in place except for the occasional movement. We could make out the occasional light red lights, but not as dark as an air plane light. Again, we normally would see a plane land or move upwards, but this light disappeared instantly. Also, it was higher than the planes coming through when we first saw it which is what we thought it was strange and watched it slowly move for awhile.

I took several images from the international space station external HD camera ( EHDC ) of luminous sphere shaped objects. The ISS was located over the southern tip of South America so I believe that the UFOs are close to the Antartica Peninsula. I have these images posted at my web site mysteryportals.com It was past midnight in that region. One photo shows the objects in a spiraling formation which is fascinating.

Laie, HI

The 4 of us were heading out and my two friends saw it first. We are all college students and were going for a spontaneous night swim. They said it was red at first but when I looked it was a golden orange color. There were two way brighter than stars or airplanes dots in the sky. My friends saw circles but I saw saucers. They illuminated then dimmed on and off again. They circled one another, so one would go on the bottom and the other on top. They kept doing this until they finally completely disappeared. I was shocked, I’d never seen anything like it.

I was driving home when I saw a white object in the sky. At first I didn't think anything about it as helicopters fly in to our local hospital. However this object flew close to the tree line and was moving really fast. Was able to snap a few pictures while driving to catch up. I turned on a road next to a funeral home and saw it suddenly stop in the sky and hover. I took a video showing it just sitting there in the sky. Then I got freaked out and drove away.

Whitmire, SC

Clear sky. Around 15-20 evenly spaced lights that sort of resembled stars. Traveling in unison with one line going north and the other going south. Eventually they would disappear or seem to fade away. Almost looked as if you could actually some sort of “line” or “path” they were traveling on. Went on for around 8-10 minutes.

Evenly spaced lights in a line across the sky. Checked for Starlink orbits but they were perpendicular to this line and not in the visible sky at the time.

Asheville, NC

Objects that appeared exactly like stars in the sky but moving in a lineal pattern across the sky. Appearing from the horizon and moving out of sight. Unable to determine how many there were but it was absolutely sequential. Traveling at the same speed and the same width apart. Something like this: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The objects were way too high to be drones, way too many to be satellites, way too slow to be shooting stars, and much too organized. I don’t know exactly when the even started but by the time I noticed it happening to the time the event finished, 10-15 minutes had transpired. Objects seen between three Marias and brightest star visible in the sky. Even seen in Asheville, NC. Very near Hendersonville Rd. In an apartment complex parking lot.

Tamassee, SC

I was stargazing facing NW when I noticed an airplane moving to the SE. This is not a normal flight path in this area. After a minute or so I noticed another one behind it, and looking past that one I see another one coming behind it from over the horizon. I went inside to get my friends to witness this and they too saw the lights, but now there were at least 10 in a row, evenly spaced and more coming behind them. We watched as they crossed overhead and disappeared soon after passing us. We tried to watch them as long as we could as they seemingly just faded out, and still yet more were coming in a row. I counted between 20-30 trying to watch them as long as I could before they faded. This lasted about 20 minutes. There was no blinking light or color change, no sound and no deviation from flight path. They sky is completely clear and bright with stars as the moon has not risen yet. I was a jet mechanic in the navy, so I am familiar with aircraft. I have a background in Quality Control for Electrical/Mechanical/dimensional. My male friend is in supervision at a Power plant, and his wife works in the medical field.

Jasper, GA

At least 50 to 75 lights in single file formation moving from northwest to southeast. No sound. One appeared to zig zag but for the most part they maintained even spacing in a single file line. There were 2 other strange anomalies - a bright pulse and another craft moving at an extraordinary speed.
