North Charleston, SC
I saw lights bright as stars in the sky in a horizontal formation looked to be one craft shine in the dusk dark sky and as I pulled out my phone to snap a picture the lights disappeared and I saw a helicopter approaching the area where the lights where the helicopter was coming from the north heading towards the harbor and the lights reappeared as the helicopter got closer and then it looked like the lights headed northeast without making a sound it moved outwards towards the ocean in a blink of a eye it didn't just vanish it faded away like looking at tail lights of a very fast moving car and it was gone in a instant and the helicopter just kept moving in the direction of the harbor.

My mother was driving from west to east on Central Avenue toward Cicero Avenue. It was Thursday, February 27, 2020, between 4pm and 4:30pm. After several grey and snowy days, this day was bright, blue and sunny. S he looked up and saw what she said was a bright, shiny, metallic vehicle that was in the shape of a clam shell, but without the clamshell ridges. There was no noise. There were no vapour trails. She was in disbelief and is a skeptic by nature. She did not know how high up it was, but said that if she used her finger and thumb, it was 3 inches across from her point of view. All she wants to know is if anyone else saw it. Thank you.

White circle (not flashing) followed by a red circle (not flashin) about 100ft. Away. Hong way quicker than planes the all of a sudden the white circle disappeared and the red one slowed down then sped off.

Antelope, CA
At 5:45am PST near Sacramento I went outside looked up at the sky and witnessed an on going stream of lights that looked like stars moving slowly across the sky north to south, they were evenly spaced, in a perfect line no pulsing light just a very steady light. I went inside grabbed my camera and recorded it for over 38 seconds but my phone shows nothing but darkness. It wasn't satellites nor was it any kind of plane. it actually looked like a line of stars moving slowly across the sky. I saw at least 40 of them

a row of twenty lighted craft on the exact same longitude spaced apart the exact same distance and all traveling at the same rate of speed. Traveling from North to South. High enough in upper atmosphere to not make any noise.

Midland, NC
These looked like a "normal satellite" light (no blinking) traveling from N to SE. They were in a perfect straight line, evenly spaced and kept moving once they appeared in northern sky and moving until out of sight in southeast sky. It was perfectly clear (no clouds) and still night sky at 5:25am on February 27, 2020. I counted up to 35 and they kept appearing as I talked (and lost count) with my daughter. I called my wife out to witness it and also call my daughter living about 3 hours away of which she was able to go outside and witness the same as we talked on the phone.

Edgewood, MD
This morning around 5:30 am, we were outside & watched a procession of dots/”stars” come across the sky. There was 40-50 of them (we didn’t count, so the total number is unknown). We stood watching them for maybe 10 minutes, I went & woke my daughter up to come outside & watch. She was outside with us for another 10-15 minutes. I can only liken them to satellites but closer than any I’ve seen. They were evenly spaced out, & continuous. There was a couple times when there seemed to be a slight delay before they started up again (maybe a couple extra seconds). During this, there was maybe 5 or 6 that were off to the side as if “escorting” them. ~ I really don’t know how to describe it, I do know I've never seen anything like it.

Arvada, CO
On the morning of February 27th I was leaving for work at 5 am. I looked up and saw what I first thought was a satellite moving from the northwest to the southeast. But then noticed another moving in the same path behind the first some distance back, then another behind that moving in the same path, then another. I began counting how many I saw continue in this fashion until I reached 34 total, all following in a straight line on the exact same path approximately equidistant from each other. Of the 34 I counted all but about 4 followed the same path. The other 4 were moving in the same general direction but on a different path a ways outside of the main path. Also they all seemed to be traveling slightly faster than you normally see satellites moving. I stood there watching this event for somewhere between 5 and 10 minutes. I witnessed this from my home in Arvada.

It was a blue light with unfamiliar movement going straight then disappearing in thin air it wasn't a falling star because it was traveling upwards like horizontally.

Every night I go to my backyard smoke my cigarettes with my binoculars for a few hrs at night. And I finally starting catching multiple almost like cloak shaped triangle one bright red light at the peak and two white lights following the other points . Be moving very slowly. Tonight finally clear night sky no clouds. And I got a good look at the 2 ufos triangle cloak only with 3 Lights and it seems to be rotation formation like a 3D pyramid rotating while both crafts are moving away from one another. But what I cant stoo thinking about how it was spinning freaking cloak pyramid just above my neighbors tree line . I was completely mesmerized by the rotating of the craft. Just had my eyes glued to my scopes and watched it almost like a glossy style like one of those colored prisms. Every night they are out there just hovering around the town. Wonder if they notice me noticing them for months .

Hello, I am anonymous bcz I am very terrified. EXTREMELY!!! low flying thing hovered over my house. It made intermittent "pulsating helicopter" metal on metal sound. Never heard this type of sound before. My house vibrated. Too scared to go outside to see it.

Marco Island - rough approximate, FL
On the late evening of Wednesday, February 26, 2020, while on the Royal Caribbean ship Enchantment of the Seas, at approximately 12:00 AM - 12:30 AM, while sitting on my starboard side balcony, a friend and I were kicking back and just taking in the waves. The Florida shoreline was only 1-2 miles out. I surmise this by the two stationary lights that were slowly passing by as the vessel was proceeding back to its port in Tampa, at 13 knots. (As observed an hour earlier on the cruise ship tv in the main lounge.) While I have tried to find the exact position of the cruise ship using a few online marine vessel tracking sites, I am disinclined to spend the $40-some fee to better pinpoint its location. If you already have subscribed to the services of one of these marine vessel historical tracking sites, it would be easy to plug in the name of my cruise ship, and that time between 23:55 - 0:30 to find a more precise location of where the cruise ship was at. With that being said, as my friend and I were kicking back and just looking out into the distance, I observed a white light traveling northward (right to left from my vantage point). While it was cloudy out, I could make out the object above with what looked like to be an airplane, that was between a half mile to one mile off the ground. In that it was traveling at an airplane low-level, and in that there was nothing else in the sky to view at that moment, I kept my eyes on it. Mind you, its appearance was a blurred white object in the sky, akin to what an airplane would like as it was on runway approach withinin cloud cover. What my friend and I saw next is why I am writing you now. The northward white object disappeared (I chalked it up to a heavier cloud cover), and not more than 1-2 seconds later, a much smaller red light (an object that was the size of a satellite in the night sky) appeared where the white object previously was, and traveled a perfect 90 degrees left to it, which lasted 1-1.5 seconds, whereby the same red light made another SHARP 90 degree turn and traveled to my left, whereby, it made another SHARP 90 degree turn further upwards in the sky (resembling some kind of “inverted shooting star”…except shooting stars do not travel that direction!), and then it was gone. The red light object never wavered from its path, nor its speed, nor its perfect 90 degree turns. There was no mass to this red object I saw, and why I could see it clearly through the clouds - I do not have an answer for. Perhaps it was its brightness. My friend first chalked it up to a drone, but I demurred in that it was simply moving too fast (in both its white form, and in the red form). She then said perhaps it was a laser, but I digress. The area we were traveling past was not populated (as referenced, there were only two lights - period - on the horizon, and the skies were dark). If the white light was some sort of spotlight, I would have seen something emanating from the ground. And, if in the remote event it was someone else onboard the cruise ship with a large spotlight, the clouds would have been illuminated differently. This light was definitely from within the clouds. So ends my sighting. This is the first time I have ever experienced such an unexplained night sky phenomenon. I keep an open mind to life, and have a critical sense to my reasoning. Perhaps this was some government project, but I am left stumped on how the close-white object transformed into a smaller red object, along with the fast speed, and the series of precise 90 degree turns, culminating with a trajectory high into the sky before disappearing. Thank you for your consideration.

My sister and I saw a line of maybe ten lights that looked like stars from the bottom of a canyon. There was no noise to indicate that they were airplanes and they moved in a perfectly straight line. When I tried to take a picture with my phone, they did not show up on the screen. They disappeared into the blackness of the sky as quickly as they came.

Coeur d'Alene, ID
Looking through my celestron telescope at Venus, I witnessed a spherical object, with a dark band through the center, moving towards venus in a long arch, traveling slowly upwards from north to south and stop above the planet. The object was a dark/light gray uneven in color with a solid black band that went from top to bottom of the sphere. The object appeared to be 1/2 the size of Venus. It stayed above the planet. I checked the lense of the scope to see if there was a bug crawling across the lense. It was clean. I looked back into the scope and the object was still there. I attempted to attach my IPhone to the lense to document the object but was unable to. When I looked again it was gone. It was not visible to the naked eye. Just as a time reference for the event I did naked eye see the Space X Satellite pass close to Venus, shortly thereafter.

Our dog started barking as he looked out the back window, thinking it was an animal, we immediately noticed a large light right above our tree line. It just sat there, pulsing, getting quick glances of red or orange. I took 2 photos but then started taking video. I kept very still and had my hands propped in order to stay still. You can see the object slowly moving eventually. Finally after about 20 minutes it was gone. It is a very clear night. My husband and I can clearly see constellations. It had to be a number of miles away.

At about 9:30 I was outside my it was dark when looking northwest towards Mt Roberts I noticed a large orange litte. It was just above horizon and just to the sddouth of the mt peak. I would estimate if I held my arm out it was as big as my thumbnail. I moved to the side to get a better view and the object had dissappeared I went back inside and told my wife, it was reported to local dispatch. When I read blotter in Tobacco Valley News and it was same direction and time

It was just above horizon and just to the south of the mt peak. I would estimate if I held my arm out it was as big as my thumbnail. I moved to the side to get a better view and the object had dissappeared I went back inside and told my wife, it was reported to local dispatch that night.

Clear day walking and saw what looked like a clump of white balloons but then they started to form a V shape. I tried to make out what they were but they were too far. I saw them form a V shape wider longer version and then they disappeared. They were too high to take a picture with my phone.
