Staten Island (near Verezano Bridge), NY
Bright silver sphere, like a blob of mercury, visible for 1-2 seconds. Zipped above us and same direction as we were driving. No sound. Appeared very fast. Unable to judge height. Apparent size somewhere between a golf and tennis ball. Checked with passenger who also saw it. Time of sighting is +/- 10 mins.

My two kids and I were at the park flying a kite, when my son noticed the objects first. It was a little while after that I used my blackberry camera to start taking some video. There were several objects that made these kind of lazy movements, first in a circular motion then in an infinity symbol type loop, although in the video only 2 or 3 can be seen. After a while, they just seemed to fade out. I would like for someone to look at this video and let me know what these craft are.

Holtsville, NY
This occurred around 7:20 AM while getting my child ready for school. The sky was clear and blue. I was standing in front of my kitchen sink. In the reflection of my glass table top to my left I can see the sky and eave of the house. The windows to the left of the table face north. A small, bright, yellow/orange star shaped object came into view on the table reflection from the north and left view over the eave of the house to the south. It took 2 seconds to enter the table reflection and leave it. I then ran outside to look at the sky to the south but saw nothing. There was no streak attached to this object. I decided to test my vision making sure it was not the reflection of a passing car with it's lights on. When a car was approaching with it's lights on, I went back into position and watched the reflection. No cars, or the street could be seen in the view of the table top's reflection- only the sky, Treetop and the eave of the house. There was also no sound when the object passed. Just one single, orb type light that gently passed in the sky.

New York City (Bronx), NY
My home is one block East from Henry Hudson Pk. Way, and I was looking out from my mother's window looking up in the sky to notice this big bright light of a space craft rotating itself to a different shape. Then it went in the area of Henry Hudson Pk. Way. I notice an air plane was passing by this unusual spacecraft that's when the space craft was shooting some kind of light at it that the air plane was struggling in flying a head and it was a stand still in the air as if this object was trying to duck the airplane to get into this object. Then when another airplane flew near the both of them that's when that airplane was about to disappeared was lucky to break through this force. I thanked God that the airplane was freed from this unknown object in the air. I wish for someone to come to where I am and you will get to see what goes on here. I am not joking and this is not a hoax neither. I am more convinced that the little air crafts that are shape like Diamonds have landed on my roof. I heard all kinds of weird sounds as if someone is using an electric saw or something to slice meat. At 23:00 I notice the many little Diamond shape crafts that surround my home as if I was their prisoner . I hear all kinds of sounds in the Attic. I hear singing of some dong as if they were going to Kill someone. I believe its called a say sons. When I lay down on my bed I feel a burnt pain on my foot and to notice i see a beam of yellow light hitting my feet. I yelled out loud to stop it that they are hurting me. Then i dont hear any sounds and dont see any beam of light flashing down on my feet. About five mins. later they do it again with them using their beam of light on me. I dont know what they are going to do with me either kill me or have me converted to be like them. I know what I am writing to you may sound that its off the wall but its the Gods Truth. I have filled out more than one of these forms and no one has made the effort to come out to where I am to investigate this. Oh, another thing that they control your use of the internet, laptop and phone use that you have to get ou! t from your home to go dome where else to call,text or what ever you may need to use your cellphone. I urge for someone to come here and its a must!

Staten Island, NY
I was sitting in my home office and my desk is right in front of my window. Something caught my attention so I looked up. There's an airport nearby, so I'm constantly seeing planes, but this was unlike anything I've seen before. Two spherical objects in the distance, probably silver in color (could not tell if it was the light reflecting off of it or if IT was shining light) where flying very strange patterns. There is no commercial flying object that can fly these sort of patterns, of this I am certain. The flying patterns were not even describable. They were almost zig-zaggy in nature, with weird circling patterns. This all lasted about 5-10 seconds and they suddenly just disappeared from the sky! I don't think it was birds because these objects looked like they were much, much higher than commercial airlines fly, and plus, they just didn't look like any bird I know. Maybe it was some kind of space event (meteors, shooting stars, etc)? I don't know. It was definitely something weird. Here's the thing though... about 10 years earlier, I saw something similar with my family while sitting in my backyard. Except at that time there were far more than 2 of them, and the event lasted a little longer than 5-10 seconds. Probably a couple of minutes, and then was followed by sighting of several military aircraft (jets) in the area. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Me and my wife were about to enter our local ShopRite supermarket, when we saw a very bright oval/disc shaped object in the sky. At first I thought it was an airplane but it was quite large and wasn't moving so I pointed it out to my wife. There were moving clouds below where the object was and we stood for a while to see whether the object moved or not. The object remained stationery for about 5 mins, and we were able to take a picture of it with her smartphone. I should mention that I noticed 3 lights in a triangle around the same area the night before but unfortunately I do not have reliable witnesses of that event. I was with 3 people who refused to even look at the sky when I brought it to their attention.

Wappingers Falls (over The Hudson River), NY
Bright light over the Hudson. My third time observing it as it stays up in the sky for several hours, and then drifts dolly over mountains. I've seen it change color as it moves behind mountains. I live directly across Orange County and have a River view. Still there as I speak. Star?? PD

I witnessed a UFO sighting with my boyfriend, in western New York between 9:00PM-9:10PM. Description- *What I saw was spherical. *It looked like it had three parts. *The color was grey. *It had rapidly flashing lights. *The lights were the color yellow. *The lights were brighter than the street lights. *Height: Just above the tree line. *Distance from us: approximately 200 yards away. *Clear skies *We were outside When we looked up it was stationary and rotating. Then within seconds it flew across the sky moving upward. The UFO was way faster than a plane. The other witness will also be submitting a report. Thank you for your time. I'm very happy I found your website, we were not sure where to report.

Medford, NY
Today, 3/15 at 6:14AM, I saw the same white light for about 3 minutes - I went to get my camera and when I got back to my window, it changed to red, and shot up into the universe, with a smoke trail following behind.

Beacon, NY
I have been living in Beacon for about 4 months now and have never seen anything fly that low. I couldn't make out the shape of the aircraft but the lights were in a cross shape, red and white light and some were blinking. It was flying east to west, about 5 or 6 lights on the front and two or three on the back. No noise whatsoever. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Lansing, NY
I was driving to work 5:13 am, when I saw a huge flash of light that lite up the entire sky, at first it was a teal blue/green then it changed to pink then purple back to a teal then dissipated. There was no sound. It lasted for about 6 seconds. You could clearly see the changing of colors. There were no beams...the whole sky lit up. I hope someone besides me witnessed this. The flash came from the North end of Cayuga Lake.

Corning, NY
Wife and I on the deck smoking and saw two balls of light in a straight formation. Illuminated the clouds around it as it passed by. Roughly a football field long and flying low and totally silent. Duration about ten seconds. Yellowish, amber in color dim but bright enough to see. Traveling at a high rate of speed.

Rensselaer, NY
While out walking my dog, I saw a bright, stationary, light in the south western sky over the port of Albany, New York. Thought at first was a star or an airplane. Upon a closer look through binoculars, the light appeared to be subtly dimming and brightening, and also appeared to have subtle flashing red lights. Suddenly, it appeared like a spent fireworks display with uneven and jagged "smokey like" tenticle like entrails. The object appeared to be stationary and not moving. I called the local PD who had no reports of a similar sighting. I went out about an hour latter to walk my dog and saw the same object more in the north eastern horizon and there appeared to be a second similar object slightly south west of it. There are lots of commercial aircraft that fly near here...Albany International Airport is about 10 miles from my house. These were not airplanes!

2/25/2015 20:30 I watched a star like object in western sky for 15 min. It looked like it was pulsating but not moving. I didn't take my eyes off it for about 15 min. I looked away for a sec and it was gone. I think I spotted it going west. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Driving home from work and we saw a light in the sky and when we got closer to it, it was very low to the ground and doing circles. We stopped the car and when it noticed we stopped it bolted off at abnormal speed, not like an airplanes or a jet.

Guilderland, NY
On Friday, February 13, 2015, I was driving west on U.S. Route 20 approaching the intersection of New York State Route 155 in Guilderland, NY when I spotted a bright, unidentified flying object in the distance to the northwest, thousands of feet in the air. At first, I thought it might be a plane either descending toward or flying away from me (since there’s an international airport about 6 miles northeast of where I was driving), but as I continued driving toward it I became more convinced that it was actually a spherical object hovering stationary in the sky, since it had no wings and was staying in place. It was also too high in the air to have been a helicopter hovering in place, in my opinion. As I continued toward the intersection keeping my eyes on the object I drove past some tall trees to might left, which came between me and the object and caused me to lose sight of it for about 5 seconds. When I came out the other side of the trees the object had vanished. This was strange to me because the sky was completely clear of clouds and the sun was well-off to the southwest, so there was nothing for this object to fly behind and the sun could not have obscured my vision. The entire event occurred over approximately 30 seconds. The time of day was 4:33 p.m. EST and the sky was clear. I continued searching the sky for the object as I continued driving west on Route 20, but I was unable to locate it again.

Lockport, NY
My two close friends and I were going for a drive, when we suddenly spotted two bright red lighted disk shaped, crafts. We actually had thought that it was apart of the light tower, but they had looked too big to be apart of it. As we approached closer in my friends car, they suddenly hovered down a little bit farther north. The two crafts were also pulsating between red and white lights. We parked on the side of the road and watched for about 10 minutes. They were hovering over the ground and almost circling around each other. One of the crafts hovered down into the trees and I could not see it any longer. That is when we drove off, shocked as ever. I have never seen anything like it. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

West Babylon, NY
Ok i was asleep in my apt in bed and i awoke to a strange whoosing sound. So i turned to my right and looked to see where it came from and i was in shock and very terrified to see a humanoid about 5'3" wearing a very blue spacesuit or something that covered its body except its neck and head. It wore black boots up to its knee and it had the ugliest face and no neck. Looked like its skin was melted or something. Kinda green complextion and had a very sad look in its face which i found very odd like it was depressed or something. Its eyes were black and beady. It never moved just stood there in the bathroom doorway staring at me. I didnt know what to do. If this thing was agressive or what so i yelled out of fear and tried to jump out of bed to get away but i couldnt move a muscle and passed out. I awoke about five hours later. My left shoulder hurt bad. And i found a lump on my right shoulder blade that wasnt there ever. I never had this experience befor! e and dont know why it happened to me. But three days prior to this insident i remember seeing very clearly out my bathroom window a luminous base ball like object silently float past the window as i was cleaning the tile. It was ghostly and its light left a trail behind it. I thought that was very strange and thought nothing else about it then. But now i wonder could it be how this alien spaceman found me in the first place? I'm now concerned that it may come back and i hope not to ever see that ugly face again. I havent slept since it happened im to afaid at this time. Btw my cats were near me and looked at the being but paid it no mind. I found that strange as well. Usually they run and hide when folks they don't know come by.

Stormville, NY
I was outside of my house looking at the sky to see how the weather was looking when I saw a dart like triangle with red lights slowly heading east over my house. The craft was moving very slowly and hovered once making no sound at all. It rose into the cloud cover and disappeared.
