Mesa, AZ
We were laying watching the night sky for shooting stars when I noticed what at first seemed to be a ground spotlight in the sky. I pointed it out to the other person, we both realized it was not a spotlight within seconds. It came from the south going to the north. It looked rectangular and seemed to have tan on the underneath. Almost like many tan "things" flying in formation or like a parachute. It was going too fast to be birds or a parachute and it was just after midnight. It made absolutely no noise and had no lights on it.

Strange object that changed shapes and colors Twice it appeared to be two object, like a shadow of itself and I know it wasn't glare because my son saw it without the camera The creepiest thing about this object is that it appeared to have a face. I uploaded the footage here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bzToY2_fQ4

My report is simply: I drove past 3 silver orbs that seemed to be floating/parked in the side of a mountain I drove past...on the way from Vegas to phx. I wanted to talk to someone at your center to confirm if orbs have been spotted in this area. It seemed very unreal to me because they were about 10 feet from drivers side of car...as I drove by. I thought I imagined them. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he seemed to us to be both sincere, and sober-minded. PD

While watching the Voice, we lost our direct tv signal and received a message that said, Attention Earthlings and had a scramble picture of an odd shaped being. Then it went back to the voice. I called direct tv to report it, they said they were unaware of any added broadcast or anything like this ever reported. His statement was, that's weird, it didn't come from us. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he assures us that the report is accurate. He has worked in the aviation field for over three decades. We suspect that the report is honest and factually based. PD

Chino Valley, AZ
Driving from camp Verdie, Arizona, a bright light appeared in the sky in front of our car heading south. It remained very bright and stationary for approximately 30 min. It then dimmed and went completely out. A few seconds later, it came back on in full brilliance. Over the following 40 minutes it dimmed and went out only to come back on a total of 3 more times. Every time it was significantly farther away than before. We watched it for over an hour. It never blinked no sounds and no other lights we seen on the craft at all. I used Google skymap to reference known objects in the sky and there is nothing in its location that can be seen without a telescope or as anything more than a small star. Also the craft did not twinkle it was a bright stationary light.

Lake Havasu City, AZ
9:47 pm, April 30, 2015, Lake Havasu City, AZ 86406 Directly north in the night sky against a background of complete darkness was an amber colored orb that appeared to be rotating as it slowly darkened to a rust color and disappeared. Me and my son were on our front porch and were gazing into the sky when the flash caught my attention, I thought it was the moon at first glance, maybe a harvest moon. As I looked further it was rotating clockwise and started to get darker in color. It went from an brighter yellow orange to red orange as the shape began to get smaller and smaller until it was gone completely.

Avra Valley, AZ
Avra Valley, Arizona, Monday April 27, 2015. Approximately 10:00 to 10:15 pm. Went into backyard to take dogs out and noticed two objects "hovering" at an unknown distance in a westerly direction from my home. One was just above the desert tree line and the other was a much greater distance vertically above the first. I had watched for several minutes when the higher object started moving at a constant slow rate in a more or less easterly direction. Still at an unknown distance when it passed by, it appeared to have a central "white" lighted "nose" with a set of blue or green lights extending from the central nose in a V shape (the V was in a plane more or less parallel to the ground with the vertex at the nose). It also had another set of lights of shorter length "above" the nose in a double V shape (or tripod shape) that were orientated at a steeper vertical angle than the lower longer lights. These appeared to be red and either green or blue. I could not distinguish a body or an aerodynamic shape of the object only the linear angled light lines. As it passed my line-of-sight in the distance the central white light went off and only the remaining V sections were lighted. I listened very carefully as it passed and could not hear any sound at all. As the object continued along its path I lost sight of it since my two story house blocked my view. I then focused my attention back on the first lower object since it had remained fixed the whole time I observed the other moving object. At this point approximately 5 to 10 minutes had passed and I went inside to get my wife. She grabbed her phone (camera) and I grabbed some low power sports binoculars for a possible better look. I tried to photograph the lower hovering object but it was to far for the camera to pick up any detail and it just looked like a light blob, so I didn't take the shot. The binoculars were too low mag and I couldn't make out any detail with them either. So I watched this hovering object with naked eye for another 5 minutes or so. The object remained just above my tree line but began to move slowly in a more or less westerly direction until I lost sight of it. Backgrounds: I am a retired aerospace engineer and my wife is a retired english teacher.

Surprise, AZ
While standing in my front door entryway walkway, I was looking towards the Southern night sky. Noticed an object that appeared to be much different than the stars and planets. I continued to watch this object as it traveled true North. Object was Amber in color. I immediately entered my home in attempt to get my wife to witness this same object. As I returned to my previous location, I was able to locate this object in the same vicinity in the sky. Object had appeared to have taken a 90 degree turn toward the East. I was fixated on this object as it began to slowly fade away and disappear moments later.

After a couple of minutes the light disappeared with no movement or sound. We live near an airport, know the sounds of all planes & helicopters. This light was very still for the duration. Then as stated it was gone within a blink of the eye. This is not the first time I've seen a ufo. There's no question on what we saw. Also we've never seen a light this bright in the sky. I don't believe a plane or helicopter could produce the brightness of this light we saw! The night before we somehow lost power to part of the house leaving clocks blinking & cable box reset to Chan 1. The rest of the house was fine so it's the strangest thing.

Buckeye, AZ
Just after 8pm tonight, April 23rd, me and my two son's witnessed multiple air force fighter jet's flying at a high rate of speed pursuing what appeared to us as 2 triangle shaped or V-shaped craft that were hovering over the White Tank Mountain Range here in Buckeye, AZ. We witnessed the 2 craft above the mountain range while driving back from the store on Yuma Rd. I pointed out to my sons the craft and we pulled into our driveway and were able to then see and hear multiple air force jets fly toward's these 2 triangle shape craft and the 2 craft appeared to just blink off their lights. The craft both each had 3 glowing white/blueish light's in the form of a triangle and one of the craft appeared to have an haze or foggy cloud in or around it. The fighter jet's circled the mountain range for a few minutes and then flew northwest. I am currently still watching this mountain range and if any new development's I will report them.

Tucson, AZ
Approximately 7:45 pm, April 20th, 2015, in Tucson, Arizona, I was running in the desert, away from ambient lights under clear sky. I watched an eclipse of the crescent moon. Crescent light shrank to a point at bottom of moon, a few minutes of darkness, then point lit again, expanded back to crescent. I thought it was an eclipse, but now i realize this is impossible, the crescent moon in in front of the earth. This means that an object larger than the moon passed before the moon. I saw all this with my naked eye. Didn't have my phone to take a photo. I am male, 46 years old. I am from this area.

Apache Junction, AZ
There was a bright green light over the superstition mountain moving up then would twirl down before shooting back up and staying stationary for a few seconds making it look like a bright green star. After about a minute it started to go in all different directions before doing circles and then doing figure eights. I went to record it and my phone started acting weird, froze then died (after putting it on the charger for 2 seconds to turn it on, the battery had 30% and was not dead). I went back out to see the light had moved south and was twirling down and shooting up then it fell down, shot up quickly and then disappeared with a small flash. We continued to watch for 1 minutes and not one light was in the sky. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

We were driving down road when I noticed what I thought were 5 airplanes flying really close together I told my wife look at that these planes are going to crash into each other , that's when I realized planes don't glow a constant bright blue and they started zig zagging back and forth. My wife said she was just looking at those same lights and thought it was the little dipper, so we pulled over and watched them with another person that was standing outside their house for a couple of minutes and they eventually flew off in different directions until we could not see them anymore.

Walking the dog with my wife in a quite neighborhood when 3 ground pounding booms came from the southwestern sky. We stopped and looked in the area for anything that might resemble a plane or military jet. Didn't see any, sounds kind of like the reported " sky quakes" I have heard before on you tube. My wife said she felt it in her chest and so did I. Kind of like being at a bombing range only very rapid and close together. Boom, boom, boom. You could feel the shock wave on your skin.
