Galt, CA
Formations of 25-30 lights that followed closely, clearly see them climbing in elevation and leaving atmosphere in a rope like formation, definitelynot satellites.

Stockton, CA
There was a line of lights (they looked like satellites but were not) they would appear in one place and disappear in another. They were evenly spaced.

I walk out of my shop and saw 1 object fly through 2 other objects and then it stopped after that 20 objects in the the same pattern same direction came into picture low south came Past the original object toward the north and disappeared. It was one after another and made no sense or logic of what was going on. I hope somebody else saw this and recorded it.

Half Moon Bay, CA
I saw numerous what looked like satellites moving at satellite speed moving in a straight line from the south west to the north east. There were first two moving in the same path only a few seconds apart. Then a little further north were many more some of which appeared to be following the same path and equidistant from each other. At one point there were at least four of them equidistant following each other visible at the same time.

I stepped outside to take a smoke. My eyes immediately were drawn to a light high in the sky, moving very swiftly to the west, just under the moon. At first, I thought it was a satellite, but it moved much faster than any satellite I've ever seen. & every satellite I've ever seen would continue to stay in vision. However, even though the area I was looking at was clear of clouds, it disappeared. It looked like it was going up into the atmosphere, not in orbit. It was by far the fastest thing I've ever seen move in the sky, with the exception of shooting stars & the fireball I witnessed for 3-4 seconds fall & break into pieces just recently (2/25/20, in the northwestern sky). I'd estimate that I saw it zip by for about 5 seconds.

Covina, CA
My employee and I were renovating my swimming pool when he said “what ((2 words deleted)) is that?” I look at him and he is looking up at about 75-80% I follow his gaze to see this object hovering. I honestly don’t know wHt it could be ad I’m hoping someone can help identify it as something known. As you can see from pic it seems to have almost a tail like structure on the bottom of a cylinder, white in color. If anyone has any ability to clean this up with software or something please feel free to do so. I Make no claim as to what it is. In full disclosure this is my second report to nuforc. The first was 8-11-09 in Mesa, AZ. I still to this day stand by that account, and what I witnessed was unequivocally a space craft not of human design. It left the ground & went up until it vanished in space w/o using combustion propulsion. This object however, I have no idea. I didn’t report it immediately because I had hoped something would come to light to explain it, but nothing has.

Bright light with shifting shapes. At times had chevrons emanating slowly changing to ball of light with a ball of red appearing at the lower right side. Traveling at very slow rate from south to north.

Gasquet, CA
This morning, March 3 2020 i took the dogs out at 545 am. I Looked up in the northern sky and saw what i thought was a satellite. It was moving from SW to NE.which is the direction I usually will see the space station orbit but not many satellites. I watch them all the time and this one was moving fast. Faster than the space station . No lights, no sound. All of a sudden here came another one, same flight path, then another, then 2, one in front of the other, all in the same flight path all at the same speed all in single line. Most were about 6 secs apart but a few were real close to each other, in tandem. Over about 4 mins I counted 24 of them.I have contacted NORAD and the Klamath falls air base.

Neon orange lights took off in northwestern upward trajectory and then disappeared. The first craft split into two separate circular orbs and than all proceeding crafts followed seconds apart

Los Angeles, CA
02/29/2020 Los Angeles,CA 90025 5:30 AM 8 objects appeared over Santa Monica and went west towards Los Angeles. These objects were round in shape. They were bright. About the size of a car. Each object started as a point of light and grew to its size in about 1 second. The altitude was about 10,000 feet. Objects appeared one at a time at 1 to 2 second intervals. The objects formed an imperfect line and went west. From the first sighting over Santa Monica, to the last object disappearing In the clouds above Westwood, the time elapsed was about 20 seconds.

Pomona, CA
At 5:30 a.m. my fiance and I were woken by our son crying. After consouling him and getting him back to sleep we stepped outside for a cigarette. Looking to the night sky we proceeded to see 20-30 bluish white lights evenly spaced above the cloud cover traveling at an extremely high rate of speed Southwest to Northeast. I am relatively familiar with normal earthly aircraft abilities observed from the ground due to our current residence being under a flight path. These objects exhibited no common aircraft traits I am aware of , the lights, spacing, spacing, formation,flight path, speed. The closest aerial object I could relate them to would be a satellite although they were far brighter and moving at an inconcevable high rate of speed.

20-30 lights if not more in a straight line flying swift and low. No noise just fast and low flying very close together

Compton, CA
While outside to have a cigarette, I looked up to the 2 o clock position of a compass being North and I saw that would to appear as either a satellite or the US space station making a pass over, but as I clearly held my ground steadily, I observed the object coming over me, I erracticly change direction, in a pattern similar to a small fish swimming in a pond. I stopped myself and steadied my breath and observed it again. And it continued to do the same in a very small grid, and then it went back to a slow straight pattern then once again, making suttle strange movements. I clearly made myself as absolutely steady as possible leaving against my truck. And observed it for a few more minutes continuing it's straight path overhead. It seemed to have some sort of reflective qualities on it. It was very quite out and I heard zero sound and it was very very high. Flying over the Woodley small airplane airport

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

This morning about 5am there were 60-100 ufo objects in a single file line same distant apart all the same size travling across the sky coming from our atmosphere from out of nothing from each dot going from dim from were it was coming from to bright as it crossed the sky all the same brightness and a few others coming from a different spot going in other directions in solo

Formation of flying objects coming from northwest heading southeast. At least 30 counted. One came out of formation circled back and got back into formation.

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.

Valencia, CA
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.

Kelseyville, CA
Not necessarily UFO's just never seen before! 8 objects (could have been more just out of sight) perfectly spaced( say a mile apart) following one line easterly over my house. Could have been military coming from Hawaii or something? there was one light, farther away and offline trailing the others. Never seen planes on that flight path, just looking for explanation!

Northeast of Mar Vista, Los Angeles, CA
Saw a flash of light appear and disappear within 3-5 seconds or less much like a shooting star. It was too bright and close to the ground to be a shooting star or meteor. My logical initial conclusion was a helicopter, but the speed and quick loss of visibility suggests otherwise.
