Object flew from the area of Atlantic Ave south about 1/2 miles, hoovered for about 30 seconds, then north. Lights looked like a Christmas tree. Was too big to be a drone.

Milton, FL
Observed two fireball appearing objects coming from the south and headed north. There was one following the other, less than 1/4 mile apart. They both turned towards the East, gaining altitude and disappeared. They made no sound, and there were no port or starboard running lights or strobes. There was no visible airframe. Just two pulsating orange lights of equal intensity. There was no hovering or bobbling. They did not match any descriptions of anything I have ever seen in the sky before. The altitude was less than the helicopters that fly around from the close by Navy flight school, but higher than I have seen drones. They did not look like Chinese lanterns or flares. I saw exactly the same thing two years ago when I was living in another state. I did not have my phone on me at the time. I tried to get my son to come outside, but he did not hear me calling him and ringing the doorbell.

St. George Island, FL
Second night in a row, but much different objects this time. We were looking in a southeasterly direction to Mars. Then about our 11o’clock position there faded in what appeared to be a very large semi-circular craft that was light by four extremely large amber glowing lights. The lights emanated from the one craft along the edge of it, and it was quite large. The ambient light seemed to sort of show a much larger depth to the craft. The dark part was in the shadow of the light, but it was darker than the sky. It felt like if the entire craft was illuminated that it would be absolutely massive. Then it faded out, but the strange thing was, even though it was faded out, it felt like it was still there. My twin 17 year old daughters and I held our breath during the event. And even though this subject matter is extremely intriguing to me, something about this, for a millisecond it felt ominous. The next lights we saw, a few minutes later, were chevron shaped facing southwest. It had multiple red lights forward, and it seem to be emitting, or dropping glowing gold orbs that did not make it to the water. Again it was about 30-40 degrees up from our horizon. This sighting was more complex and sort of ominous than the previous night. Different clusters of lights and crafts. We are vacationing here on the island for another week and I intend to be watching the skies from our back deck every night. I am a 54 year old woman, my husband is 59 and my twin daughters will be 18 y are old next week. I grew up in San Diego, where my father was an aero-space engineer. So. I’ve always had an affinity for aeronautics, space travel, and the strong possibility of other lifeforms in the universe and galaxies beyond. These are the only incidents I have ever been lucky enough to witness.

We had checked the sky guide on our smartphone to identify Mars which was on our horizon. Our goal of the evening was to watch the ISS orbit at 22:30 over our area. My daughters excitedly called for me to come see something else in the sky. A circular, red object appeared, seemingly out of nowhere, and held its position for approximately 20-30 seconds then faded out of sight completely. One of my daughters actually had binoculars in hand and viewed it through that. It was an opaque red, with an orange-ish halo effect. We kept vigil on the deck and about ten minutes later two separate ones appeared with one about 15 to 20 degrees off the horizon, a little to the left of Mars, and then way off to the right there was another one simultaneous, and higher in the sky. Astonished, we waited and for the last sighting of the night, one red light appeared, while the other two appeared in apprimately the same area and degree of the first sighting. But what made this even more fascinating was that this last one actually started with one red light, then added another red light, and then another. For a total of three red lights seeming to be on one object, slightly angled. It reminded me of the lights coming on in the Phoenix lights case. Except this was much smaller, at least from our vantage point. And then all five lights in the sky vanished and that was the last we saw of the red lights. I am a ((deleted--fiftyish)) year old woman on vacation with my husband and my twin 17 year old daughters. We have been coming to this island for 12 summers in a row. The girls will celebrate their birthday on August 1st. Who is also my husband and my 20th anniversary. I have a B.A. in journalism and a post graduate teaching degree. I’m originally from San Diego and am well aware of military exercises and such. My father was an aero-space engineer who worked for Convair and Lockheed Martin, back in the 60’s and 70’s and was present for at least one of the Gemini space shots from Cape Canaveral. As I sit here writing on our back deck, we were absolutely astonishing led to see an Osprey perform a flyover our beach from southwest to northeast. And it didn’t look like he was over 500 feet. IT WAS AMAZING. But, that does not take away from the fact that what we saw last night was totally unidentifiable. I would also like to state that I AM a believer in the UFO community. There is just no way we can be the only lifeforms in this vast universe! We spoke with the source of this report, and we found her to be unusually eloquent and serious minded. We suspect that she is a very skilled, and reliable, witness. PD

My sister and I were sitting out on our porch, looking at the stars and waiting for the ISS to fly over, when I noticed 2 orange-red glowing orbs in the sky to the right of Mars. They glowed for just a few seconds and then faded out. We called our mom outside to come and watch for them to show up again. It was about 10-15 minutes later that they showed up again further to the left of where we had previously seen them. It was just 2 that time also. And after 5-10 more minutes, 3 of the orbs of light in a cluster and 2 single ones in separate areas appeared and faded out and then they came back in separate areas of the sky. The 3 lights that were together seemed as if it was part of one "craft." That was our last sighting of them and they seemed to be further out above the ocean than the first sightings. I was able to look at them two different times through binoculars and the objects looked about as big as Mars, but seemed to glow more rather than being solid form. It looked like the center was red with an orange glow around it. I honestly have never seen anything like this and have never really been a big believer in UFOs, but now I think I've changed my mind. When I first saw the lights appear, my mind didn't go to a drone, airplane, or anything of the sort. I couldn't think of anything that the lights could be. So, I know it has to be something other than normal aircraft.

My husband and I were driving on the Florida turnpike heading to Orlando for vacation and saw a bright orange ball of light that seemed to be hovering. We just passed the Ocala exit. My husband thought it was a tower lgbt, but it looked to high to be that. All of a sudden, it seemed to elongate and then turned bright white and disappeared, as if it was headed up into space at the speed of light. Then, it seemed to reappear in the distance as a dot similar to what a star looks like. It was the strangest thing we’ve ever seen.

Tampa, FL
On 7/21/18 20:59, I observed a very large red glowing cigar shaped light, or object, fly from south to north over Tampa, Florida. It was quite eerie, as it was a very unusual and intense color of red for it to be a jet aircraft on a landing approach to either Tampa International Airport or nearby MacDill AFB illuminating a bunch of clouds with its landing lights. I have seen many normal aircraft fly through the clouds but never a color or shape like this. The object appeared as a red glowing cigar shape for about 7 seconds, and then instantly changed shape to a much smaller but very intense bright white circular shaped object or light as it continued to fly in a northerly direction for about another 30 seconds. I could see that the object had changed to a pulsing reddish orange glow as it flew away. I never observed any typical red or green aircraft navigation strobe lights. I was able to get several pictures of it from my cell phone, but unfortunately, not quickly enough to capture an image in the bright red cigar shape portion of the sighting. There was never any sound of aircraft engines and there were no NASA rocket launches that evening at Cape Kennedy. The entire sighting was about 45 seconds. I have worked for military aerospace contractors for 15 years and consider myself well read on aircraft.

Hi- on or about the date in July, I was awoken at 4:11am. I was troubled by waking up so abruptly due to a dream or some kind of feeling. I turned off the home alarm, went outside. I was facing East which is toward the Atlantic Ocean, there was a large golden sideways egg shape glowing as if it was a gigantic full moon raising. It is not possible for the moon to be in the sky raising at 4:00 am on the east coast or am I incorrectly considering this as an explanation? I watched it, it stayed in the same spot, then went behind a few large tropical clouds, the golden glow stayed. I just starred. I am not sure what else happened other than I though I was losing my mind that the planets seemed to be in the wrong place. It was still in the dark early morning sky when I went back in the house. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Pierson, FL
My husband and I first noticed that what we were looking at was not a star or a planet when we took the time to stand still and we realized that what we were seeing was moving around. The object was hovering over the Lake George area of Pierson, Florida. We got out the binoculars and filmed videos of the object moving in directions that all normal aircraft we know of do not move like. This looked like a star at first, but the object got brighter and dimmer as though it was blinking or pulsating. It also would move up slowly and down slowly and home still and it would dark to the left and the right in directions that you would not see a plane or a star move. We did take photos and pay attention to the height of the object which was just above the tree lines and about a thousand yards away. We continue to observe any object for about 3 hours. Maybe between 2 and 3 hours. And the next night, we saw the object again in the same vicinity and doing the same exact things. The next week and a half went by and we would see the object and just not even pay attention to it because we still haven’t been able to figure out what it is. We do know that it is still here, and our first sighting was 07/20/18, and as of last night, we still saw it, and videotaped and looked at it through binoculars. Last night’s date was 08/04/2018. Last night, the object was in the same vicinity but southeast of where it was the first times that we saw it. We know it is similar if not the same object, and this time we got a closer look. This time there was a red light beam protruding from the bottom of the object and the beam wood appear and disappear just as the brightness of the object would increase and decrease. We got better photos of it last night, and will continue to observe the object because it is definitely here on a regular basis. We discussed our location because where we live there is nothing really as far as much civilization, the majority of what is here is cow fields and Farms, and a very lowly populated Township. The object would be in the same exact vicinity where some small aircraft would fly directly past it also. The object would stop hovering and hold very still and make the lights very dim making the object appear as though it was a star during the periods of time that airplanes got near it. At one point the object divided into two objects while the one on the right State still in the one on the left moved around and then the two objects joined back together as one object. Sometimes it seemed like a white dot, and sometimes it would be closer and look more red, and sometimes you could distinctly see the white on top and the red light being on the bottom. We discussed that maybe it was a satellite and it just appeared to be closer than it really was but that could not be because satellites do not move around in quick motions in 360 degree directions, and the satellite are actually out in orbit and this was much closer. After doing some research online I also considered that maybe this was a drone that we were looking at, but drones also would make some sort of noise if it was that large that it was visible to the eye at that distance. Also I don’t know if drugs that can move that quickly and have a red light beam underneath them. This is definitely something that I would like a professional to look into to find out exactly what this object is. If it is from mankind then that time, but I don’t know if anything that mankind has made that moves like that or acts like that, so if someone would like we can submit video or even to prove that this is not a hoax, I’d be glad to pull up video live on Google hangouts to prove that this is not something that’s computer generated. I am NOT trying to submit personal information including address or name or telephone number whatsoever, and I want to ensure that I’m reporting this to the right agency.

Tice, FL
A red UFO mimic jet #741 close call crisscrosses X with another silver UFO mimic jet right over my house a few thousand feet up. With binoculars it looked like the red mimic was the lower object in altitude. Both were silent, and the silver mimic had a 100 foot chemtrail. The red did not. GPS: Bellaire St. and Palm Beach Blvd. Nine total on the day. 16,110 total since 2008. The engines on the red UFO mimic were not as large as the ones in the picture I'm sending. Light shade of gray on the under-wings. We are uncertain as to whether this is intended as a serious report. PD

Ocala, FL
While sitting on the back porch looking at the night sky I noticed a very bright white round object In the sky. It wasn’t high enough to be a star or planet. I intently studied its position in the sky and it remained stationary. After a few minutes, the light quickly became small and disappeared from sight only to appear again about 2 minutes later in the same location. It did that a few mores times and then quickly disappeared for good. I took pictures and they show a round circular object that had an outside ring with a circular object inside of it. The photo also showed round white orbs in the lower corner which I don’t recall even seeing at the time. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) You are right about it being Venus. I took a picture tonight of Venus in western sky and it had the same ring affect in picture. Thank You for your explanation. ((name deleted)) ((END ADDENDUM))

Lake Mary, FL
Viewing the night sky from Lake Mary looking WNW we saw what appeared to be a star that got bright and dimmed. The light got brighter again and seemed to have color to it. I turned my head and looked back at the sky to see that to the north and the same distance away and up there was a flare like streak in the sky and the light to the left dissappeared as if it went further West rapidly. The flare like light to the right dissipated and had flashes of white light streaks flowing away from it until that completely dissappeared. Then the original star like light that appeared first reappeared in the same area that we first saw it to only be blocked by some passing clouds. The skys were clear enough to see Stars and planes. Only a small patch of clouds obstructed our view in the end.

Two rapidly moving spheres traveling from North to South over Anna Maria Island. Left no contrails, no sound, and no visible lights.

Tampa, FL
Have had many odd spiritual/other kind experiences; standing outside grilling with some friends and I get this urge to look straight up and I immediately focus on a light moving through the sky. This light was a star. It was outside of our atmosphere and if it was standing completely still you would recognize it as a star. Problem is, it was not standing still but moving in irregular, non-human patterns. No piece of human technology known could make a movement like this. I knew what it was instantly but wanted everyone else to check it out to confirm; once they saw it, they started trying to explain what it was. “It’s a drone.” “It’s a plane”. Those objections only lasted a few seconds as we stared at it cross the sky in the same irregular patterns. One person freaked out and went inside. The others sat and watched as it slowly disappeared and after we discussed what we had just seen. Please tell me someone else in the Tampa area saw this?

Estero, FL
One circle comprised of 4-5 lights. Stationary. Initial faint object(s) caught my eye due to faint flicker. After staring for a few minutes, and writing off as a plane (even though it was 1:45 am), flicker became slightly more clear. Object remained stationary, but flickering colors began to change after a few minutes. white...then red...then green...then blue. Was sometimes three lights flickering, some were four, some flickers contained five. It was a slower flicker, and again, location of circle of lights never moved position. I watched for close to 45 min, then went back inside. Came out again 20 min later, and dark sky had three long vertical grayish clouds (easily 20-30 size of footprint of original circle). Object was gone.

An airplane passed by after a bit and appeared much smaller than this ring. It stayed in the sky, not moving, for over an hour and as the sun rose, it still was there, but as it got brighter, I could not see it again.

We saw what looked like circular shimmering lights of various colors all around the beach area. They where NOT drowns. No drinking or drugs where involved and i did manage to get them on my cell but the video would have to be blown up in size. Educated here and not crazy. I do not know how long they lasted because we ended up going to bed at about 11 pm.

I SEE THE CONFIRM NOTICE YOU SENT AND IT IS ERRONEOUS. I NEVRE, NEVER, NEVER SAID THERE WAS AN ABDUCTION, YET YOUR CONFIRM SHEET STATES THAT I DID. THERE WAS NO ABDUCTION. WHAT IS WRON WITH YOUR SYSTEM? As of the date we received the above statement, we had not yet posted the report that this comment applies to. We are not aware that we have labeled a report from Naples, FL, as a possible abduction. PD
