Rachel, NV
Me and a friend were headed back from Rachel, NV to Alamo, NV, which is about a 40 min drive. We were approximately 20 min into the drive, when I saw an orangeish amber orb of light coming up fairly quick on the car in the rearview mirror. I was thinking in my head of what it could be. There had been no headlights, it was orange or amber colored, and definitely higher than any motorcycle light would be. So having gone through all my logical thoughts, and run out of ideas, I asked my friend to look behind me, and tell me what that was. She stuck her head between the two front seats, and it came right up to the trunk of my car. It was a little less than a foot in size, and was just a glowing translucent ball of light. Not like a bright light glaring at you, and blinding you or making you see halos. And not a reflection type light, but like an orangy amber orb, colored from the inside. A lot brighter than a lit up balloon would be. For lack of a better descripti! on. Also, we were driving about 60mph, maybe more once it was following us, and it was keeping up with and staying the same exact speed as us, and in the same spot for several seconds. Not like something mechanical that would lose and gain speed to keep up, but right there with us, and almost like checking the car out. Then it moved slowly to the drivers side back window, as if checking that out, and then just as i thought it might come right up to my drivers window, it took off super fast into the field. Just as it did that, a car came around the corner. Almost like it knew the car was coming and took off. This was in an area where there are no side roads for many many miles, and even had side rails at this spot, so no cars could even pull over. Theres no street lights around, and its complete desert mountains all around. My friend saw it close enough to know it was not a drone, and had no mechanical parts. And i seriously doubt anyone would be out there in the middle of nowhere with hardly any traffic just to pull a prank on some car they will never see again. And im not sure of any technology that is just a ball of light, that can still travel around or be directed. Im an empath, and i felt it had intelligence, and was curious. Our windows were decorated with aliens and ufos for the Alienstock event we had just been at, so maybe it was curious about the windows. It didnt seem dangerous, just curious. The next day we told many people at the event what had happenned. We had several people tell us about an orange light that came out of the sky, just above one of the stages, and kind of curved upwards before taking off at a high speed. That happened around 11:30pm according to the people, which was close to the same time as my experience. So was it connected? And what kind of orb of light can be seen from such a far distance, and up closer at the same level of light, without getting brighter? Ive searched online for similar experiences, and only find the sky orbs, but no close up ones like we saw. So I would love to know if others have had similar sightings. As for our backgrounds, I'm not sure how much, or what you want included in that. We both have average jobs, and normal lives. My friend is native american, and also a bit empathic. Obviously we are interested in the subject, since we were at Alienstock. We also follow paranormal stuff. This was her first sighting. Im of mixed white nationalities with a bit of american indian also, but mostly welsh and irish. I have had many sightings before. I live at the bottom of the Nevada Triangle, in Fresno county, and there are lots of sightings in my area. Although most of my main sightings were in the 80's and 90's, with only one incident of missing time that I know of. Im in my 40's and shes in her 50's. Any other info you wish for you are welcome to ask.

We were driving home down Route 190 in Union Connecticut when we spotted white lights hovering in the distance (western sky). There was one bright light in the middle with a line of lights off to each side creating a sort of eye shape. We drove home (Stafford Connecticut) & when I went outside to try and take a picture, the lights disappeared and then reappeared in another spot. I was unable to get a photo.

Unknown traveling on rt. 25, SC
A strange shape of green lights hovering in the distance standing still for a few seconds then did like a hop in elevation straight up and then shot horizontally at a speed I have never seen any man made object fly and disappeared out of my view as I was traveling on rt 25, a small group of trees obstructed my view a few seconds after it took its horizontal path of travel and there was no sign of it anywhere after. The light pattern was shaped as a sideways candy cane with a vertical tail as drawn below. Lights were a lighter green and not of any color I’ve seen on an aircraft before, nor have I ever seen any object with a light pattern like that.

It was very very high. I thought it was a meteor. I saw a light going across very high and it was faint and extremely small so it must have been high. I thought it was a meteor because it was going way too fast to be an airplane. we get airplane here and they're lower and lights blink. This shot across the sky way too fast and didnt burn up. Just went the full distance of skyscrapers that were visible to me.

Ok, so this has been bugging me for the past few days because of random constant reminders I have been having through the my time after seeing something in the sky. I don't know what it was I saw but I know that I could not explain and have not seen anything like that before. I live in kind of a secluded house not like other homes but right next to a community park. I was laying in bed with my boyfriend when his sister started yelling for help to find her dog. Apparently her dog had just out of nowhere freaked out and ran off our property. I got a flash light and started looking around the property with my boyfriend. Around 8:43 or around that time (I didn't have my phone on me), I happened to look in the sky at the perfect time. What I saw was a formation of lights just suddenly appear in a triangular shape (when they appeared they were moving forward) before disappearing quickly (while moving forward). Honesty I find it hard to explain all together. The only thing I saw were lights but staggered in a triangle shape but a triangle without the bottom line lit up if that makes sense. There were maybe 9 lights, there was no noise at all. This happened very fast and unfortunately my boyfriend did not see it. My sisters boyfriends came back from taking her car out to look for her dog and luckily she had the dog. She said she had found her dog had run pretty far off near the area I had seen this in the sky.

While walking my dog, I noticed a circular ball of light that seemed to have a glow around it that was revolving as it moved. It appeared to be moving like a shooting star at a much slower speed. It moved in a straight path for a few seconds and was at its brightest when I first noticed it. Soon it began to move erratically; it appeared to stop in place for a few seconds then move in a different direction with speeds alternating between fast and slow. The strangest part is its altitude also spiked very fast and when it went higher the light seemed to disappear until it was in a new position in the sky. I live very close to Mooney airport so I am familiar with aircraft, but the planes I see have more than one light, usually two in front and one in back, also they don’t have glow around them. I have seen a couple planes with headlights but none that emit light similar to the spinning of a lighthouse. I got the sense from it’s behavior that it was searching for ! something. I asked my brother to check it out, but the time it took for him to walk two feet from under the porch into the yard, it disappeared from the night sky. I walked to the back of my house and noticed very bright flashes of white and blue light coming from the trees on the right side of the woods in my neighbor’s backyard. The diameter of the light looked to be about 7ft and maybe a foot or two off the ground. There was no noise and the flashes seemed to overlap each other. In just 15 seconds, there were probably 25 flashes.

Very slow moving circle of light. Flew way to low & close to the mountain top to be a plane. One circular light large and bright - didn’t blink at all. Moved slow and would even stop in one place for a couple of minutes then move on.

Similar to many other posts here, there was a light formation in a diagonal line. Each orb would light up in an ascending pattern and then blink out in order that it lit. I have filed other reports similar to this that I have seen in the past, however this time we were able to get a photo.

On a clear night, we were sitting outside having a beer at Hardywood West Creek, when my boyfriend, dad, brother, and I noticed other patrons looking up at the sky and pointing at it. When we got up from our table, we saw that they were looking a very white, bright light moving across the sky. This thing was moving much faster than a plane and was not blinking. In about 3 - 5 minutes it had crossed over us and then was out of our line of sight. There were about 10 - 15 others who saw this, and they too were stumped about what they had just seen.

Walked outside to let my dog pee- huge triangle shaped object with like 30 lights all blinking flying low. Craziest thing I've seen in my life- was metallic gray but had different colored blinking lights. A lot of them were white but some were green and yellow. Heading south- it looked like it went right over where the Richmond race way would be. The race track is so loud- even though I am a few miles from it I can still hear the car engines and it is hard to tell if the object was making a sound. The day was turning to night but the sky was still very blue as the sun had not quite set yet.

This was a warm afternoon and I was sitting on my porch talking to my roommate. I live in Oregon Hill and while she was talking, I became very still and fixated on a formation of lights in the distance, south of my house beyond the river. There were three lights in a triangle, I mostly remember one being red and another green because it was striking against the blue sky. It was before the sun set that night. I had to interrupt the conversation because I could not focus on what we were talking about due to my interest in this form. I pointed it out to her, and we mutually concluded that it was a ufo. Moments after we still somehow returned to our conversation. I watched it a little longer but did not recall when it had disappeared. There is an airport in that direction, but we rarely see a plane nearing the location I noticed. I was very high in the sky and a great distance from where we sat, but there was a clear triangular formation of the lights. Seeing that someone had posted something like what I experienced really validated what we had seen. I have never seen a green light involved on any other aircraft before this day.

New York City (Brooklyn), NY
Friday September 20, 2019. I looked out my window in Brooklyn, NY, and saw a very clear trail of exhaust in the sky. Out of curiosity I stood by the window observing and marking the time down. I happen to live in an area where airplanes regularly fly on a few set routes and I have gotten to know their pace/speed and general flight paths (severe weather permitting). There are also frequently helicopters flying slightly lower in the sky than the planes. The craft leaving behind a clear and consistent trail was moving at a remarkable speed . I almost felt as if I'd miss the entire event altogether. The craft showed a clear and low starting point and moved upwards into the sky and then proceeded to stay level at a certain altitude but moved rapidly from West to East. When it reached a certain area which I believe was over Queens, the trail abruptly stopped and the silver object leading it vanished. I continued to watch for its reappearance but it did not resurface. At this point I then saw another identical object do the exact same thing from the exact same starting point. This happened a total of 3 times with completely identical stories. The entire time was about 30 minutes but the individual flight for each was under a minute and the craft must have traveled miles during this time. The trails left behind were still strong and did not disappear or fade at all for at least an hour. As I mentioned earlier, I am also near airplane flight paths and the difference in speed between the two was too great to ignore. I also observed several, at least 3, black helicopters which seemed to be monitoring and following this event. One more craft started from the same point, this is a 4th, and was the same color and size and shape but instead of going West to East, it traveled upwards (North). The details are identical to the above statement but it happened about 30 minutes after I observed the first three which occurred pretty much one after the other every 10 minutes. I did not see any lights, I did not hear any noises or witness anything aside from what I have listed above.

I'm not sure about the nature of this event but I found it quite unusual. I've got drone footage from Mendocino area, September 2019 and just had the chance to watch the footage. I can see random lights appearing from one point to another, sometimes at very fast speed and sometimes slightly changing direction. This has occurred several times (at least 8) and in different camera drone direction. I would like to know if you could be interested in watching the footage, perhaps through a screen sharing.

I noticed a large bright white light in the sky around 4am September 20th. The altitude, I would have to guess around 15000 feet, about the same for planes 30 miles out out so for take off or landing. The interesting part the orb shaped light was about 10 times brighter than the brightest star in the sky and was probably 5 times larger than any plane at that altitude. It looked like it was traveling maybe 20 times faster than a plane would cover in the same distance between the tree lines that I viewed the object. There was no trail, smoke or red or green lights and made no sound, so it was not a plane or comet.

From my patio I saw a craft with bright read and green flashing lights in the Northwest sky over Malibu, CA mayber 20 miles away from me, The craft flew from west to east. The object moves very fast. it stopped hovered and flew west toward the ocean . It stopped hovered and flew east again. I am guessing the distance was maybe 20 - 25 miles. I saw the craft fly back and forth maybe 6 times before going back to bed. The craft stopped on a dine and moved int he opposite direction. It WAS NOT and airplane, drone, or helicopter. I believe that it was a our Airforce or Navy testing a anti-gravity free energy craft. I will also add that there was no sound. At twenty miles away I would have easily heard a fighter jet or helicopter.

My neighbor and I were sitting outside on our balcony having a late-night drink when we both noticed what we initially believed was some kind of drone. It approached the Hollywood area from the North West and flew in a straight line for about 40 seconds. As it came closer, I noticed that it did not have any navigation lights. I do not know how big it was as it was difficult to judge as a bright yellowish light emanated from the object. It then hovered over East Hollywood for about 30 seconds. It then started to increase altitude quite rapidly and within about 15 seconds it could no longer be seen by us. The sky was clear. I have worked with drones and although it appeared to move through the air like one, it definitely did not have navigation lights. I did not hear any noise coming from it but it was difficult to be precise as to how far it was from where we were sitting. The sighting was filmed on an iphone. My neighbor and I are both sane, normal people. I am a 57-year-old man and own a successful TV production company, My neighbor is a professional photographer, aged 45. We had been drinking but were in no way impaired.
