I was driving down the road to my house. I witnessed a large and low hovering disk shaped craft with four purple lights along the bottom. Craft was surrounded by a blue/purple haze. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Harrington, WA
It was a dark night driving home southbound to Harrington. I saw this object flying westbound over highway 28, and it started banking to the right over my farm. I initially thought it to be @ 50 to 100 feet AGL and a width of 40 feet traveling at @ 50 mph, but it could have been much larger, faster, higher and further away due to no real depth perception. It had a red light on each end and a bluish/white light behind. The witness is well known to us, and we consider him to be highly reliable. We suspect he is a well qualified observer. PD

Bremerton, WA
I witnessed an event in the sky on 03 November, 2015, @ approximately 1730 PST in Bremerton, WA. During this evening, I was traveling southbound on highway 303 and saw a faint light blue in color round object traveling North to South at a high rate of speed. It was traveling slower than a meteorite, but faster than a satellite across the sky. From my perspective while driving, I saw it travel in front of me from the top of windshield to the horizon directly in front in approximately 3 seconds.

Seattle, WA
I was walking my dog in west seattle, up by High Point looking out towards the Puget Sound and saw a dark form cross the sky and it immediately caught my eye. It was dark and flat and I thought it may have been a large bird at first then I noticed dim white lights at the tips which formed triangles. The lights formed what looked like the outline of two dark triangles that were overlapping each other looking almost like one object. Then they disappeared behind some clouds as they were moving across the sky quite quickly. It was definitely like nothing I have ever seen before!

This was usual because at our location we see planes flying at night all the time and know what they look like. Besides I build them for a living for many years. This object was also traveling noticeably fast. Very cool to see and very intriguing

10-31-2015 4 am to 5 am East of Spokane, there appeared quantity (2) two objects. The two objects glow, then would pulse and expand to 4 objects each. and return to two objects ,(not a airplane strobe) Objects appear to be much larger than a star. The two objects did not move, the spread when pulsing was much greater than dirty atmosphere reflection would explain. the two objects pulsed every 4 seconds I watched for about an hour Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

We were driving on Mountain Hwy road and noticed what looked like a very bright multi- colored star, but seemed too close to be a star. We decided to film it and noticed what looked like, a disk shaped ufo. Doing a frame by frame of the video, I was able to get Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Seattle, WA
There were 10 or 12 very brightly lit aircraft, flying too low and slow to be the usual jets approaching for landing at SeaTac. They flew north to south, about a minute apart. Underneath each were large outlines of arrows. Some had 2 pointing in opposite directions, some had 2 pointing in same direction. Arrow shapes consisted of lights. Some arrows were green, some were red, I think one was blue, can't remember if other colors. The lights did not flash or blink, just burned steady. The aircraft sounded like small prop planes, not jets or helicopters. I saw them first while sitting inside, looking north. I went out to my porch in front, saw more as they came by, went to my back deck to continue watching. They seemed to be flying roughly over I-5 route. It was so odd, I forgot to try and get pictures.

Yakima, WA
Here is what I saw: At 7:05 P.M.on 10-27-15, I was sitting outside on my patio in Yakima Washington. It was dark outside. The sky conditions were mostly cloudy and the nearly full moon had not yet arisen. I saw two distinct white round objects about 30 degrees above the horizon in the NNW part ofthe sky. They were of the same light intensity and size. They moved for about two seconds almost parallel to the horizon in a ENE direction. One object moved in a somewhat skewed trajectory from the trajectory of the other. They were about the size in diameter 10 times the size of the average distant star. Their speed was about 10 times that of a big plane you would see going overhead. They traveled about 10 degrees across the sky in the two seconds. There was no streaming breakup of material as a falling meteorite would show before it disintegrated. This sighting was certainly not two planes, and if it were meteors, they were travelling at the wrong angle to the earth (almost parallel) and were the most uniform equally sized circular meteorites I have ever seen. I hope someone else witnessed this. We spoke at length via telephone with the witness, and he seemed to us to be quite serious and sober-minded. He described the event in a very eloquent, factual manner, and emphasized how bizarre the event looked to be. PD

Vancouver, WA
8:02 PM OCTOBER 23, 2015, Vancouver, Washington I had just come home from an errand, and was standing at the end of my driveway. I happened to look up at the moon, which was just above the roof of my house to the south. It was about ¾ full, with a few wisps of clouds around it. It was developing a ring around its perimeter. Just to the left of the moon, I noticed two lights - one green and one red - hovering high in the sky, about 10 degrees east of due south. They were very bright and steady. They almost looked like Christmas lights, but were too high in the sky to be that. I initially thought they were from the jets landing at the Portland International Airport, because they were in that general direction, a little east from the airport. But the lights weren’t moving. They just hovered there for maybe a minute or so. They slowly started moving west, then suddenly, the lights zig-zagged right, then left very rapidly 2 or 3 times. The object then turned and started coming toward me at a slower pace than it was when it was zig-zagging. It seemed as if the object blinked and rotated at the same time, and the lights turned from red and green to white. I couldn’t be sure, but I had the impression it was disc-shaped. Suddenly, the light went straight down toward the ground, leaving a long, solid streak of yellowish-white light behind. I lost sight of it as it disappeared behind the house. I went out back, but could see nothing. I did not hear any sounds during this incident. I watched for awhile, and saw several planes coming in and out of the airport. They moved in a steady line toward and away from the airport, not in the crazy zig-zag way of the object. I walked down the block where there was a less obstructed view of the southern sky, but could see nothing. After coming in and looking up UFO sightings online, I found several stories from “The Columbian” newspaper in Vancouver. It described sightings nights on Feb. 20 and 21 2011 when several residents in the Clear Meadows neighborhood of East Vancouver saw something very similar to what I saw. There was some speculation that what they saw was a Chinese kite decked out with LED lights that was flown by a man named Mike.

Castle Rock, WA
As the object flew in front of the Moon I wonder if the lights were a reflection of the Moon, but the objects light quickly faded and I could then see the reflection of the Moon on it. It appeared to be round and the color looked like un-polished stainless steel. We live on I-5 and the normal flight path for aircraft is north/south. The object seemed to be between 3000-5000 ft high, no navigation lights and no sound. This is also the third strange sighting in a month. The ISS was visible from Castle Rock, WA, at 2045 hrs. (local), but it was visible in the extreme western sky, and only for 48 seconds. PD

Ridgefield, WA
I just came out to look at the stars. I saw a flashing red light with another light behind it, which looked like it was over Vancuver. As the set of light came closer between Ridgefield and battleground area. As it came to the East of me, the lights spores to have the red light in front of a blinking white lights, I started to hear a humming but rough sound. I tried to video tape it a a few still shots with my phone, but as I shot the photos, could not see anything on my screen. Then the lights went NE.

It was three bright red lights moving exactly the same speed. when the object turned the lighrs moved together. As it came closer the lights got bigger and wider. Total I would say it was close to a mile wide. While it was moving through the sky it passed stars and when it did the star wiggled and looked like you were looking at the star through water

Olympia, WA
A fluorescent bright green disc was hovering above the banks of the De Chutes river, with the state capitol building behind it. It ascended to the height of the second tree line, hovered for a moment, then proceded north. I altered my position to get a better view, taking my eyes off of it for just a moment. When I looked back up, it was gone. Thought it was a drone, but could not find any drones on the internet that would cast such a hue (I have been involved in rc helis and drones for a number of years). Compared the size to sea gulls flying by, it was larger by at least 3 times

It looked like a large electric sphere that would get brighter than disappear then com back brighter. It didn't seem to move just float there and turn on lights then turn off did this a few times. One seemed a lot brighter than the others light and didn't show its self as often. I tried to zoom in with my camera and the photos wouldnt snap, only after I put the camera down then it would take a picture. I am updating this it lasted for 45< minutes.

Just at ten we were at the park when I noticed all of the movement. There were seven lights in the distance in a shape of an oval, all spinning slowly for 3 minutes with no sound until a helicopter hovered underneath. Three of the lights on the left disappeared, the other four briefly followed the helicopter before disappearing almost simultaneously. Me and the four others I was with witnessed the lights.

I saw a bright white ball of light fly low and slow across the sky. All the dogs including my own dog were barking. As the light moved out of view we saw a bright flash in the far sky.

Seattle, WA
At about 10:00 PM on Oct. 11, 2015, I took our dog out for a walk. It's my habit to look overhead at the sky and clouds. This evening, I looked up and saw a light source going around and around. I stopped to watch it, to try to figure out what it was. I'm familiar with the way the way the attention-getting search lights used by businesses look when they shine up into the sky. This was not like them. This appeared to be a light source that was coming from above the clouds--not from below. It was a diffused light, moving in a clock-wise direction and completing a circle about once every second. The relative size of the source was about the size of a full moon. It went on for about 20 minutes. The circumference of the circle was hard to quantify, but I would estimate it to be about 5 to 10 percent of the overhead sky. I watched this light for about 20 minutes, as I walked the dog. It suddenly stopped--it didn't get smaller as if moving away--it simply stopped. I called it into! the Seattle Police Department and the person on the phone suggested I call the phone number for reporting UFOs. I called the number and spoke with a gentleman who asked that I submit a brief written description of the incident. As a side note, I'm a photographer and used to observing light. This truly looked like a light source that was coming from above the clouds. The area of this observation was from SW Monroe St and 39th Ave SW to SW Rose St. and 39th Ave SW in West Seattle, WA. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Regards, John

Puget Sound (bet Seattle/Bainbridge Island), WA
Was taking pictures of a spectacular sunrise over downtown Seattle from across the puget sound (Bainbridge Island) when the image of a very large aircraft (looked to be a triangle shape like a stealth jet) moved above the clouds; however, when the aircraft reached a break in the clouds, i.e., a clear patch, it was no longer visible! It was a cloaking. I began taking video footage as an image reappeared above the clouds. The shape looked a bit different. The morning prior (yesterday morning 10/08/15), was outside for a brief moment shortly after 4am and notice an aircraft flying very low - it was triangle-shaped like a stealth bomber. There were no clouds and it was not cloaked. Since Boeing is not far, and Bremerton Naval Base is behind me, I assume this is one of OUR military aircrafts (I hope!). I can attest, cloaking technology has definitely been employed. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

King County (above), WA
Woke up to see odd feature, a bright flashing. Thought it was a very odd satellite and then noted movement. I could see varying colors of lights, red definitely, then green and white. They appeared to rotate horizontally. I placed a 1/2" sticky dot on my window pane and stood in a position so that the dot blocked the object. It moved slowly but steady to the south after hovering at each spot for several minutes. It was too high to be a helicopter. Too deliberate to be a plane. I watched it for 1.5 hours then returned to sleep. I'll be looking for it again.

Saw a very bright light and many smaller lights they were flashing colors being blue, white or yellow and green, the bigger light was showing colors but only around the light if you didn't look directly, all of the lights were moving up and down and side to side, I have videos and pictures of the event, is happening again currently, less extra crafts and the bright main one is way father away. Never have I ever seen this kind of thing. Keep your eyes and skies open.
