I was going to my car and my wife was standing about 40 feet in front of me looking in the opposite direction telling me to turn around. When I did I saw 4 firey objects moving in a circular motion, and then started to move in very peculiar motions as if it was a fly.

Belfast, ME
It was nearing sunset. Very calm and almost cloudless sky. I was sitting on my kayak enjoying the quiet and peaceful tome of day. From the corner of my left eye something caught my eye and I looked up. Not 50 feet above and slightly to my left was what on first glance a large iridescent bubble. It was lingering so I looked to my right where neighbors were in their dock to see if they were blowing bubbles but of course it couldn’t have been because the object was definite in its movement and it was literally hovering. I kept looking up at it and then all around me to see if anyone else was out on lake or could see it with me. I kept gasping with both excitement and wonder. I did speak out loud and said what on earth is that? To myself. It then lifted a bit in no apparent rush. It was definitely translucent to silver it turned itself to and then flew away from me and when it was about 200 ft just above my house it disappeared. I immediately called my neighbor ! to see if they had a drone out but they didn’t and it had no lights or wings it was literally a ball. Maybe from that distance the size of a softball not large at all. It was most definitely just hanging out. It was quite close. It was also quite beautiful. That’s why at first I thought it was a bubble with the shimmer and iridescence. I clearly looked all around and into the water to try to make sense of where it had come from. It also was completely silent.

We were at Tyson to pick up my mom and then my brother noticed some white little spheres in the sky, I thought he was lying. I checked it out and there was about 6 or 7 aircrafts, the thing is, they were flying about the height planes fly, and they looked the size of a commercial plane, I took a video if it and I fought about 4 flying objects, it was pretty scary.

While snapping photos of the clouds while hiking Wilacre Park, I observed a round, blue object in my picture. I snapped three photos in succession. The object was not in the first photo, but was in the 2nd and 3rd. When the picture is blown up, it appears there are lights emitting from he object.

Massena, NY
While driving down route 37 just outside of Massena, NY, past Akwasasne, I witnessed what I believe to be some sort of flying object of light. It was about 25-3500’ off the ground. The sun was off the left of time and it was reflecting almost a brighter glare than what the sun could make. The object was dead ahead and moving left to right and would make more of a glare the longer I stared at it. It was to low and to big to be a commercial airliner in the air. There were a few other cars on the road but heading in the opposite direction. I went down to grab my phone to take a video of it and when I looked back up it was gone. I couldn’t find it at all. I stopped scanned all around. Nothing. It was gone.

There was a red blinking light in a field as we were driving by it was hovering quietly, as we turned onto another road we saw a side view, there was a small red light and then about 5-10 feet over there was a big red blinking light. Soon after it flew very fast to the left and disappeared.

Van Buren Township, MI
When I got as close as I was going to get to the lights that’s when it hit me that I was looking at a UFO. There were five bright lights in a perfect circular pattern hovering stationary right off the interstate. I quickly pulled my phone out and took the best picture I could. The objects stayed in the same spot for as far as I could see until I got off the interstate. I called my coworker who starts his shift an hour after me and takes the same way to work. I describe to him exactly where and what I saw and asked if he seen anything, but he said that he didn’t see any lights in the sky around that area.

Near Pittsboro, IN
I had just left Loves Truck stop off of exit 61 in Pittsboro, Indiana, On I-74 heading west. Once I got a few miles down the road. Somewhere near mile marker 50, I saw a round ball of light racing down from the sky. I thought it may have been a shooting star, except it made a slight turn to the right and shut its light off. Their was nothing obstructing my view and it simply vanished.

Carson City, NV
Coming home from work in Reno NV, I had just turned southbound on Saliman Rd, South of Fairview Dr., mid city Carson City facing a drk noncomercial area, no business lighting. Heading into a darkened residential area I saw a fireball come into view traveling from southeast direction at eye level in my mid-windshield view, at a roughly 45 degree angle moving south west. I would say the travel length was about 5-6 inches across my windshield. It was not a pinpoint meteorite type, but a flaming, blueish white object giving off sparks. What was unusual it started to darken as if expiring out, then re-enflamed for another 1-2 seconds continuing in it's steep decline. I estimate if it had continued after it extinguished it would have impacted in the Gardnerville Ranchos area, a housing area of homes & ranches at the base of the Sierra foothills. I did not see any impact flash or claim there was one, I'm just pinpointing the final phase of the fireball trajectory as it did extinguish slightly above my horizon view of homes maybe a mile in front of me. I am a senior, fully competent Cell phone customer representative & troubleshooter. I have reported maybe one simaler indicent 20 years ago while living in Burbank CA.

North Topsail Beach, NC
Saw a light in the sky moving at a high rate of speed. It changed direction at tight angles and accelerated faster than any known aircraft could. I would have written it off as a reflection but it appeared to have been followed by a military plane. The object disappeared, at least from my view, quickly and was accelerating much faster than the military aircraft.

Hastings, MN
My wife and I noticed what we thought was a star. It then started moving up and down, side to side and at 90 degree angles. I have never seen anything like this before. I recorded video of the object. My wife took my phone, just to make sure that it wasn't me shaking or moving the phone. We observed the object for about 45 minutes. It would move higher and lower in the sky, but keep moving at impossible angles. We witnessed the object in the western sky around 270 degrees and it was 15 to 20 degrees from the horizon.

While sitting outside stargazing watching heavy plane traffic, I noticed a craft thin and long with 3 amber/orange lights with no visible strobe. It was moving west to east at a "normal" speed. When the craft was exactly due east of my location - and I had determined it defiantly did not have strobes in a blink of an eye changed direction to going straight up increased speed and vanished in less than a second.

Nutley, NJ
I was in my pool watching the flight paths of planes departing and approaching NIA and Teterboro Airport. I observed a bright light moving in a North to South direction flying very slowly in an erratic pattern ( zig zagging ). The object did not emit any sound. It was moving in an area not normally used by landing and taking off aircraft. At first I thought it may have been an errant helium balloon. After about 2 to 3 minutes it just vanished. I previously observed this phenomena in early July, same type of sighting around the same time of in the afternoon. That one however was observed due East and was repeatedly moving vertical to horizontal for about 5 minutes and likewise disappeared. The best way to describe what the lights looked like was a bright star or planet.

I was driving looking north on I75 looked out of my driveside window was looking at the moon it was one of those mornings that the moon is still In plain view. I turned my head back to focus on the road when the thought hit my brain. I just saw something flying by the moon. I turned back to look at the moon the object looked like a plane without wings. Bright white and it was moving very fast i looked at it for a few seconds wondering what i was seeing when I thought to get my phone i was able to take photos with my phone the object was so bright white id say it was illustrated or it was reflecting the sun but thats not the impression i got to me it look as white as the moon i was looking at. The object flew from left western horizon to east horizon in under a 30 seconds one more thing there was no condensation trail usually when i see a plane flying at high altitudes i see the con trail and it was a nice cool morning for Florida.

North Bend, WA
Taking my wife to work at 5am after dropping her off noticed a strange set of lights near Mount Si. Decided to investigate. Followed the lights up a road we called county line, it’s a dirt road goes very very deep into the woods all the way to Idaho iv been told.. The lights appeared to be in a triangle shape but would move and change position and altitude at times. Couldn’t see the shape of the actual craft just that the lights were in a triangle shape maybe 40ft apart each. At one moment one light went off and it was just two. It was changing altitude rapidly and made no sound at all. I followed it maybe 30 minutes up county line before I lost sight of it. Took a video but it just looks like all the other ufo videos of lights in the sky.
