Yulee, FL
I went outside to get fresh air and saw a bright red oval object flying through the sky. I yelled for my fiancee to come see. She had never seen anything like it. It was moving very slow for about 4 minutes then it took a turn and flew high into the sky. It was out of sight within 15 seconds. Like I said it was bright red and oval. It was so bright that the color seemed to come off of it like a flame. Also it was flying pretty low. I would say at least 200 to 250 foot up.

New Castle, DE
Sept. 28, 2019 New Castle/Bear, DE. - A Stationary flashing long light, not any kind of circular shape; in NW sky at 11:00 PM Friday night. The flashing occurred randomly between every 5-15 seconds. This went on for 15+ minutes. I eventually just went inside. I was unable to record the flashing on my cameras.

An extremely large disc shaped object with green, red and yellow flashing lights flew diagonally across the sky very fast. Disappeared into the trees. Was witnessed while driving.

At 9:46 P.M my son my girlfriend and myself were getting in our car when a big disc with a red light came flying over head. It was moving at a much higher rate than the planes. It was not going in straight line i could see it rotating with the naked eye. There was 4 orange lights that followed it. About 20 seconds apart from each other. They resembled hope candles. The thing with that is they weren't going up into the sky. They were flying just as fast as the disc. they all vanished around the same point in the sky

A bright red light stood stationary for approx. 1 min., and then sped off to my left very fast. Too fast to be a helicopter. It went a short distance and came to an abrupt stop. It stayed there for about a half min. and then went back to the original position. Then very slowly went to the right, and went behind a row of trees and vanished. I told my wife about it , but it was already gone. I thought. When I went back on the porch again, it was in the same vicinity, but in a different location. I called to my wife that it was back, and she came out on the porch and saw it. But all it did was slowly go to our left and it was gone. The light was very bright and not blinking .

I’m a delivery driver . I was on a delivery when I got in my car I noticed a set of lights that were similar to airplane lights . I noticed whatever it was was at a really low altitude . I continued to drive and I got to a stretch of road where there isn’t much light and I noticed this “plane” was triangular shaped because the dark part was so dark it contrasted against the dark sky. It had lights on all sides and they were slowly pulsating on and off . It wasn’t making sound and it was slowly cruising at the same low altitude. It was also kind of making circles and turns at the same low altitude in a swift smooth manner . Nothing Ive ever seen before . I followed it for about 2 minutes and it then begin to pick up speed and I lost it after that.

Many large lights seen going up into the sky slowly, different speeds and generally the same direction but not completely. 3 different waves. Went up until we couldn’t see them any more. Above the high clouds. 3 of us took videos.

Multiple low flying objects, seemingly in a straight path across the sky. Red and white flashing lights. These objects would appear from the treeline and cross the whole sky, silently, and disappear until the next one comes across the sky. My dad has said hes been seeing these for months, tonight was the first time I took the time to see for myself. Indeed what he says he sees, I saw too. Too low to be planes, no noise followed. Lights flicker, seems to be white on either side and red in the middle. I got video, but cell phone quality isn't that great.

Bright, red-orange ball seen in the sky around 7PM from Front Street in New Haven. It was traveling steadily, smoothly, and silently north-west (from the south) towards East Rock/Hamden. I watched it for about one minute when it quickly faded out of sight. It was not an airplane or helicopter—was a single, large light, No tail lights or noise. I noticed others in the neighborhood stopping to look at it, too.

My wife called me on the cell phone about 19:00. She was in Santa Rosa. I was about 5-6 miles S of her. She said there was a light in the sky and wondered if I saw it. As I was talking with her I went outside and observed the light she was referenced. The sun was below a nearby Mesa but the object appeared to be reflecting the sun. I took a picture but I estimate the object was 10-15 miles N, maybe NW from my position, It only appeared as a small dot! The objects movement didn’t seem to be any faster than the wind and eventually just faded with the sky getting darker. I did use a small pair of binoculars at one point and it seemed to be of triangular shape.

In the north sky, heading Northeast it was bright and silvery. A little bigger than what an airplane would be. When looked at through binoculars it looked like a circle. It traveled pretty slowly.

Before sunset,in the sky we saw a tear drop shaped shining bright white (kind of resembling a huge hot air balloon), not moving at all. An airplane flew next to it and it's size dwarfed the size of the airplane. Several neighbors outside and people pulling over in their cars to look at it. After sunset it is no longer visible.

Two Circular objects hovering side by side. Extremely bright white and very large in color and size. Second object appeared to be imploding on itself. No navigational lights, no wings or tail. Objects appeared to be above the intersection of Valley Creek Dr. and Century Ave. Less than 500 ft in altitude and at a 65 degree angle. Amazing!

I was driving on the highway on a road trip and just before sunset I noticed a bright triangle shaped object in the sky. It had sharply defined borders and appeared to be made of metal because once the sun started setting the light was reflecting off of it making it appear to change color. I had an uneasy feeling and my gps started malfunctioning. I took two videos in the area (one of the craft) ten minutes apart yet the location stamps marked them as being almost two hours away from each other. I would have pulled over to take a clearer video but I had a very unsettling feeling that I shouldn't do so as there was hardly anyone around. I did see a truck pulled over on the side of the road with a man who was staring at it. craft didn't appear to be moving, but it was clear that it was, just very slowly. I was able to keep it in sight for 45 minutes to an hour before the sun went down and I couldn't see it anymore. I had my cat in the car and she was freak! ing out and meowing loudly for about half an hour as we drove under it. I had a feeling of being watched and the rest of the drive took me much longer than it should have. Very confused about that part as it seems I lost a couple of hours. I was experiencing a lot of neck pain afterwards and when I finally got to a motel to sleep for the night (around midnight) I woke up a couple of hours later with excruciating neck pain. No dreams either which was strange for me but then again I didn't sleep that long. Turns out I sprained my neck somehow.

First on I seen was at my house in Bonne Terre, then a week later in Festus a storm was rolling in I told daughter to take a pic of storm and we got it a perfectly timed pic we got a pic of the same one I seen over the house a few days earlier I don't no how to put pic on here. It was square and florescent green and it was blinking it wasnt in sync just random it would pause and you could not see it until it start because at first I thought I was losing my mind and then it started again plain as day scared the shit out of me then bam it was gone and this was 3 am in the morning so no one around I ran in side I wasn't waiting to see it again because I no I seen and it wasn't supposed to be there or maybe it was me that wasn't supposed to be there who knows but I have a pic of it the second time I encountered it pretty strange the first time I seen it at my house there was at least 15 cats standing in my neighbors yard and you rarely see 1 or maybe 2 at best never that many

During this time, I saw what I originally thought to be 5-6 birds flying from North-East to South-West pretty high up. It looked like they might have been seagulls as I could make out darker areas in the front and back. Not having my glasses, I removed the sunglasses to see if I could identity what kind of birds they were. Once I took the polarized sunglasses off they completely dissapeared. Put the sunglasses back on and they were back again! Then the "birds" passed above some clouds which were much, much higher and were temporarily hidden behind the clouds. The clouds they went behind were either Stratocumulus or Altocumulus clouds (6500' to 20,000'). No way I would have been able to see small birds at that altitude. They also appeared to be "rolling" as they flew by. And they did fly by very fast. This all happened withing a matter of 10-15 seconds. They went from one horizon to the other, apparently at a greater altitude than I originally thought and were not visible to the naked eye. It was quite unsettling. There were 5-6 for sure, and all flying in a "formation" or pattern.

working in utah we were walking out of work for lunch, I was looking at the mountains to see if there was snow because huge cloud were covering them. From what i thought i saw was a break in the clouds was snow, my co worker said that not snow ! what the F is that. it almost looked like a flock of seaguls but there was no way we'd be able to see birds that far away. they were all rotating in a formation going in and out of the clouds! I pulled out my phone and got a short video. hard to see but its there! i screen shot the part where you can see one and zoomed in and its def a round object. silverish white .
