Venice, FL
On fri, 9/27/2019 at 8:20p.m. I witnessed a triangle shaped craft approx. 30’-35’ in length/width fly NW – SE over the Venice Fl. Airport. At first I thought it might be a B2, but the B2 makes noise and has an exhaust trail, the B2 is also kind of bat-shaped. This craft was silent, black, a more equilateral triangle shape, had zero exhaust or visible engines of any kind and was flying very slowly. I watched it for about 10-15 seconds. After doing some research online I found something called the “TR-3B” recently patented by the U.S.Navy that uses something called “rotating electrostatic drive”. They claim it hasn’t actually been built…

I was driving on the Dallas North Tollway just South of the 635 interchange. I could see out the front of my windshield in the air at about the 1:00oclock position this long black pipe. The object was motionless in the sky. I am a private pilot and would estimate the altitude to be slightly less than 1000 ft agl. I attempted to video record the object and caught the object just for a second on my cell phone while trying to drive.

Blacksburg, VA
On Friday, September 27, 2019 at approximately 8:40pm in Blacksburg, Virginia, I was outside walking my dog on the trail and as usual, looking up into the sky to see what I could see. My first thoughts of the night were who exactly gets to occupy which altitudes in the sky? Because I noticed several aircraft in the air that evening, some at extremely high altitudes and others seemingly occupying various other levels of the atmosphere. One aircraft in particular, that I presume to be of the private variety local to the Virginia Tech airport was flying in unusual patterns with a green, white and red light on it. I had taken the time to watch it carefully because it appeared to be unusual compared to the other aircraft I am accustomed to seeing in the air at night. Considering I observe a lot of aircraft in the sky, it’s a regular occurrence here in Blacksburg, this particular aircraft was behaving in a way that made me consider the possibility some kind of driver’s education, behind the wheel class was going on? A minute or so would pass as I continued walking down the path and I looked up into the sky again to see the most amazing things. There were three objects in the sky, one at the 11, 12 and 2 o’clock positions and they appear to be on fire. They were clustered together, seemingly moving independent of one another but the object at the 2 o’clock position moved around freely, very firefly, serpentine like and appeared to change altitudes and directions efficiently. There was a rocket booster looking affect to the objects, but they were clearly emitting some kind of flame. Unfortunately, I did not have my camera with me but I did sprint in vein in an attempt to get one. By that point, the objects were gone. The airplane I saw moving erratically in the sky no doubt was observing this same behavior and there was an uptick in traffic in my area immediately following the event, so I would have to think it was witnessed by more than just myself on ground level.

One aircraft in particular, whom was closest to the ground that I presume to be of the private variety local to the Virginia Tech airport was flying in unusual patterns with a green, white and red light on it, I had taken the time to observe it because it appeared to be so unusual compared to the other aircraft I see in the air at night with red and white transponder lights.

Me and my son was walking home we was on 4th st and Franklin Ave, we was looking up at the sky because it was starting to get cloudy fast and three bright circles appeared out of nowhere directly above us. One big light and two smaller lights on each side.It stayed motionless for about 5 minutes then the lights "turned off"and that was it. Me and my son was very scared and have never seen anything like that ever. I know that it was not an airplane because how big the lights were and it was like it turned invisible and it made no noise or any movement at all. It was either a U.F.O or secret military air craft. I know what I saw.

Two Bright star like white lights appeared in sky as small as stars then increased in intensity. Much brighter than the other stars. Increased in brightness synchronized together and then faded out together about 20 secs later. Not a cloud in the sky. Objects did not move and were silent. Altitude appeared to be 30,000 feet or higher. Initially I thought I had witnessed two stars supernova together. But what are the chances of that occurring. I am very scientific person my career is electronics engineer. I saw a similar event about 3 months ago but it was a single point of light and occurred at night. I am not sure what I saw. I have seen the international space station , meteor showers, but never anything like this.

Cypress, TX
I left my house at 5:19a the morning of Friday, September 27, 2019 a running route I often took but not usually that early in the morning. I had just passed the two mile mark in my route turning the corner on the path about to run parallel to the busiest street around. There were a decent number of people out in their cars waiting at the light or driving on their way to work. As I rounded the corner going left (north on Fry road), I noticed a very bright strange disk shape object hovering about 100ft ahead of me and about 200ft up in the air over the CVS ahead of me. It was extremely bright. The shape was very odd, the disk was elongated from left to right (about an 1.5 inches if I held my finger up in front of me) and the lights were on the side of it. It was silent and the morning was also pretty silent except for the cars. I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't turned that corner. As I looked up at it, it hovered for a couple seconds and then flew backward and upward at an angle into space until it turned into nothing. from the time it flew off until the time it disappeared was probably 1 second. It was faster than anything I'd ever seen and the angle at which it flew backward was not natural to an airplane. Also, when it left it was silent and made no noise. I stopped and caught my breath from running and shock and looked around so see if anyone was near and had seen but I was the only one on the trail that morning. The light changed to green and the cars started moving as if nothing had happened. I continued my run and made it back home at about 6:15a after a total of 5 miles ran in the loop. I didn't see it again and I haven't seen anything like it here since. For a description of myself: I was 29 years old at the time, Female, white, non-smoker, athletic competitive runner and working full time.

Mansfield, OH
Sighting 2 of 2 On September 27th, my wife and traveled to the back side of Charles Mill Reservoir, just outside of Mansfield, Ohio. The location we choose is void of light with very little light pollution from the city, perfect for stargazing and watching out for shooting stars. What would be a routine sky watching evening would turn anything but. At approximately 1:30 both my wife and I witnessed what we would both classify as the exact same event as described on July 27th, post 1 of 2. We saw what we thought was a shooting star entering the Earth’s atmosphere from the northeast at 30-40 degrees above the horizon on a bearing of 210. Just as we thought the object was about to flame out it immediately slowed down to the speed of a commercial jetliner and the brightness of a normal star. After approximately 5-6 seconds it accelerated to the same speed as it had entered the atmosphere and the same brightness. Needless-to-say, we were both left speechless. As a former pilot I have never seen an incident which left me wondering what it was I just saw. Whether or not this was military or something not from this Earth, I do not know. But what I do know, is what I saw. I not only saw it once, I have seen it twice. During both incidents, there was no alcohol involved as neither of us drink. We are both sound of mind and these are the first two incidents we have ever reported. I will state again, I know what I saw and it could not in any way shape or form be mistaken for something else.

Newark, DE
Was driving home from a late night workout, and saw a noticeably bright and flashing light. After a few minutes, it was apparent that it was moving, so I pulled over. I saw two people on the other side of the road recording on their phones. I was by the Newark Farmers Market when all this had happened.

Marietta, GA
Driving north on I 75 passing through Marietta at night. One other vehicle nearby (a trucker) when a silent, triangle shaped aircraft passed overhead, very low near the interstate. It appeared to be preparing to land but there was no airport nearby and it was moving much too fast. There was a light on each of the corners of the craft. It disappeared as quickly as it appeared, never making a sound and leaving no trail behind it.

Mentor, OH
4 small solid white lights, equidistant apart in a straight line, initially appeared to look like stars due to their high altitude but did not change shape or intensity. Skies were clear, no clouds in the vicinity. Lights appeared stationary at first with surrounding blue hue then began to move silently from east to southwest across the sky. As the lights began to move, the blue hue disappeared. Their speed increased rapidly and they disappeared in the distance within 4-5 seconds. Lights did not leave any kind of heat signature, smoke or vapor trail visible to the naked eye .

My adult son and I were on our front deck and noticed what looked like a small cluster of stars, as we watched them we noticed that the cluster would change shapes and one at a time started to go out. We watched for several minutes and about three of them did reappear. then all of them disappeared.

Tucson, AZ
While I was driving off the freeway headed south I noticed a huge green light with a white/blue trail coming out from behind it (like a torch light). I mean compared to the lights in the sky from planes it was pretty big. I only saw it drop for a few seconds then it literally just disappeared with a small flash. For a second I thought I saw a massive falling star but it was green. A very bright vivid green. I’ve never seen anything like it.

We live in a rural area with no background lights from any city. We both have witnessed the usual meteor showers so we are familiar with how they appear. This was totally unfamiliar. The object glowed red,orange, yellow and you could say that it appeared to be on fire.

I was walking my dogs when I saw 3 red lights in the air. I thought they were flares at first but they started to line up together. The lights started getting brighter then dimmed then disappeared. It happened quicky maybe in less than a minute. I was going to take a picture because I was on the phone but I thought it was flares or an airplane but I've never seen an airplane with 3 red lights moving to be in a single line, flashing brightly together then disappearing together. By the time I was ready to take a picture or video, it had disappeared. I will continue to watch for it.

Lusby, MD
I was standing at Starbucks in the Lusby Commons Shopping Center and in the sky above Lusby Liquors, I saw two objects that I thought were stars at first. One was a bright blood red and the other a bright ocean blue. The objects were initially situated diagonally from each other at a distance. I knew these weren't planes, because they weren't flashing the usual lights. Suddenly, the objects started moving around in a circle while maintaining their linear diagonal distance from each other and I pulled my phone out, but as soon as I did so, the blue object suddenly vanished and as I prepared to take a video, the red object slowly disappeared as my fingers touched the video button. I asked three men coming out of Salsa's Mexican Restaurant if they saw the aforementioned object and they said the saw it too, but didn't know what it was.

I went out on my deck to have a smoke and like always was looking at the so called stars in the area in space near the constellation shaped like a sideways triangle there was a very small star like light moving slowly suddenly it had gotten so big and bright I had to squint my eyes it was the brightest light I have ever seen in 59 years it still was moving then slowly faded out after 5 seconds and was gone.

The craft had 4 lights that were not blinking. Moved steady and silent across my path I was driving. Lights on just one side (front) but was flying at about a 45 degree angle. Could have been another side I could not see that would make it a “v” .

Farmington, CT
The two of us saw 3 odd looking lights in the sky. We were trying to see if they were moving or not, and they were only hovering. About 1 minute later, we saw one of the smaller crafts start to speed up really fast, stop and hover, then continued to speed away and disappear completely. The second smaller craft did the same exact thing. But then, we saw a HUGE light, much bigger than the two smaller crafts combined. The bigger craft actually seemed to have emitted the smaller two objects actually. The big one moved only slightly, but then started to speed up quickly, disappearing moments after. On all the crafts, there were these triangular lights, flashing around the craft, red, white, and the craft itself kept on changing from a yellow light to a white light.
