Boston, MA
At approximately, 04:20 hours, I was sitting with friends on a fire escape when we noticed fast moving lights in the sky. The lights were green colored, moved independently and would, at times, converge into a cross formation. The spectacle lasted about 20 minutes at which the lights dimmed and vanished from the sky.

Rochester, WA
I was driving home from Centraila, Wa ,about 11:30pm. I got off I-5, and took exit 88 highway 12 west, toward Rochester, WA. I stopped at the 1st light, and saw what I thought, were weird light reflections in the clouds, they were pale yellow orbs bouncing all over the sky, my husband said they were most likely from a spot light. As we drove farther west I noticed that the orbs were just to the south of us about a mile or so and were brighter, and were closer together now traveling a little ahead and to the southwest of us, as we entered the town I realized this was one ship, and the lights were much brighter although still above the clouds, we made a left, and then turned back west on our street, I thought the object was still in town. Our road is curvy, and as I made the second curve,I almost wrecked the car! I caught sight of the craft just to the left of me and a bit ahead. I almost wrecked the car! we were the only ones on the road and the object was now just above the clouds, and you could see 6 white lights rotating in a pattern and 4 red lights that spun, then the white lights ran to the inside or center of the craft, made a star formation,then reversed direction and made a circle around the center star like light. This thing stayed in the cloud cover, never coming out into the bare sky, so I never saw the whole thing. As we took a left into our driveway and parked, the craft stopped and hovered, literally, 200 feet above us and 100 feet next to us, just above our pasture. the lights slowed down, and as we got of the car, it looked like it was coming down, by the way it made no noise, had no wind there was no engine noise at all! at this point we both decided it was best to get inside. We got the dogs out of the kennel, and took them in the house, they had been raising holy hell, and were franic! I decided to go out side and see if the craft had left, it was no longer at the front of the property and I did not see it at first. This made me feel better and I walked out to the street and headed west to see if I could see where it went, as I walked up the road I looked to the left and looked out at our pasture, and saw at least, 25 rays of light pointing up to the sky, they were like spotlights and were bouncing all over the place! the craft was now on the ground behind the barn so I could not see it, but I knew there were no lights out there like that! I took off for the house and told my husband we needed to leave, he agreed and we got the dogs loaded and took off down to the next cross street, we turned left to go to highway 12 and the craft went right over us heading due west, and then it just disappeared! I am still shaken up, and just a bit afraid they will come back. A car was parked at the corner of the cross street and moon road and he had a cell phone in his hand so someone got it on camera, The whole encounter lasted 30 mins,

Cross Run, PA
Driving northbound on 81 south of Hazleton. One oval-shaped natural, but bright, light appeared to the west of the Highway around 1,000 feet above ground level (they seemed very close). Within seconds there were 10-15 lights to the west stretching out over the next mile. They were not in a line, they were all over. We could see additional lights behind trees and as we continued we were able to see that the lights continued into the distance. Entire family was in car but only wife was awake. We are both former military with extensive knowledge of helicopters, this was something different. There was no noise coming from these, complete silence.

Looked to be rotating. Difficult to see craft shape, but likely a disk. 3 then 5 blinking lights. Lights were white then blinked to a bluish color.

Coudersport, PA
Me, my brother, my best friend and a close buddy (all college graduates, professionals in our late 20’s, early 30’s) were stargazing at while camping at cherry spring state park. We first saw a shooting star and thought that would be the coolest thing we saw or maybe if lucky we would see the milky way. Instead we saw an odd shaped craft off in the distance that was flickering red and blue lights or a purplish light. We were all taken back cause it was unlike anything we expected to see or had seen before. We thought maybe it was a satellite or a space station. But then it began to move in a direct line to the right (a few inches in the sky) and then in a direct smooth and controlled line back to where it was. Intelligent coordinated movement. This left us questioning what the hell did we see? I am now confident that we saw a UFO

Washington Township, MI
I've lived in this house for 12 years and my family and I have often noticed three lights floating in the sky above the lake we live on. We always thought they were a little strange because they don't move like planes and the lights aren't like planes either. They're a gold color and seemed to bob up and down before moving around some more and then disappearing.

Corona, CA
Driving back southbound on Haven Ave in Ontario, Ca, and entering the city of Eastvale, about 12 bright spheres were rising from behind the hills of Corona. they where in formation and then starting moving independently, some circling the larger spheres. They started pulsing as the lights went out far above the tree line and hills as they where traveling North. These where absolutely not Chinese lanterns, drones, helicopters, planes or anything familiar. When I finally pulled over and jumped out of my car at a park in Eastvale (McCune Park) Another spectator was filming the event as well.. I do have some film footage

My wife and I and two others saw a cluster of 4 lights traveling east to west. We observed them for about a minute when they vanished. Within a minute we saw 6 more lights 4 in a cluster and two off to the side. They also were traveling east to west and after a minute they vanished.

Hillsboro/Purceville, VA
While travelling on VA Highway 9 toward Highway 7, my wife looked toward me to say something and noticed many orange glowing disk like objects flying slowly in formation of 3 to 4 at a time moving in a generally East/Southeast direction. We pulled over and took video footage from the intersection of Highway 9 and 611 (Purceville Road) while facing North. Video footage capture their appearance and movement. I also contacted the CBP Air Marine Operations Center in Riverside, CA, to report this highly unusual activity. I have been in law enforcement for 27 years and have never seen anything like this. I was shocked and astounded when I heard that they could not see the objects on radar.

I was out on my porch at 20:35pm, watching the sky in the direction of the moon. Suddenly I noticed a round object that was the size of a star which was traveling at high speeds in the South East direction. For approximately 18 seconds the object had a straight trajectory. Suddenly, within 2 seconds, it changed the direction towards the North at a higher speed and it disappeared. I believe that it wasn't an airplane, nor did it have any blinking lights.

Woodbury, CT
I saw a flickering very bright red and white light in the sky. It looked much bigger than a star. I watched it for about 10 minutes, it was perfectly still and did not move. Suddenly it was gone, like someone switched the light off. It did not look like an air craft. It went away too fast. I stood there for another few minutes to see if it came back, but it didn't. It was a very clear night.

On my deck trying to show my 3 year old a bat flying over the house, sun was down it was nearly dark. Scouring the bat was why I continued to look up when from the corner of my eye a craft not more than 500 ft appeared and quickly went behind the tree line. No lights, silent, only 1, gray oval football shape.

On September 7th, 2019, on a commercial flight from DC to LA, my flight companion who is like a Mom to me, was taking a photo of the sunset. When she showed me the image I noticed a UAP/UFO on it and pointed it out to her. She then began taking more photos and a couple videos of it. On the video, you can see the object darting around in all directions in the sky. On the still photos, you can also see other larger craft-like objects. The objects look illuminated by the sun setting. The object flying around had an orange aura or veil encapsulating it. When the still photos are magnified it looks like a hamburger shape with space in between and a light on top. We were flying high up above the clouds and the info on the pictures and video showed that we were flying over Arizona. I have photos that I would like to upload and attach to this report.

Cross Plains, WI
We were coming out of the house to walk downtown to a restaurant and noticed a very unusual looking shape in the sky above our house. We have never seen a formation in the sky like this, nor could we find any like it on the internet. It appears like there is a spacecraft behind the clouds. It moved very slow to the south and then suddenly stopped moving and sat stationary. After taking several photos and video of this strange formation it was gone 30 minutes later.

Hudsonville, MI
While taking a walk with my wife, we saw a slow moving large Cigar shaped craft moving west. It stopped and turned north into a cloud. It looked like a blimp but there were no lights, and I have never seen a blimp turn on a dime the way this did.

Dilley, TX
At 6:00 on 9-7-19 while looking at stars and satelites a V shaped object caught my eye. For 2 seconds I watched it block out some stars with the naked eye. Pulling my monocular to my eye it was a V shape made of light grey disks, 7 on the left and 5 on the right. It definitely was not birds, as I could see these perfectly round metallic disks. My first view was at 90°, observed with monocular for 3-4 more sends until it disappeared over a 10 foot tall shed to my South 45 feet away. The object never seemed to get smaller in my range of view.

I was walking my dog this morning (heading northbound on Fairview Avenue). We stopped in front of Lookout Park in order for my dog to((walk)) when I happened to look up into the sky and notice a bright red circle come into view from the west, heading east. It was approximately pea-sized at arms length and was traveling slowly. And as it neared the midway point of my view, a bright flash of white light occurred just above it. (Strangely, the flash of light was slow as well. It wasn't like turning on and off a light and took a good two seconds to finish.) After the flash of light, the red circular object proceeded on its way to the east and disappeared out of view.

I went out side on my mother deck to have a cigarette. I happened to look up facing southwest. There was a yellow, almost sun like color object, it was like an orb hovering about 2,000 feet. As soon as I noticed it started to move very erratically, bouncing up and down while moving towards the northwest at a slow rate. It started dropping what appeared a sparks or something that looked like liquid metal on fire, same color as the craft. The debris glowed for a few seconds and then went out. It then stopped and it took off in a straight line at an incredible speed, so fast that it appeared as a line towards the northwest.

Then we thought maybe it was a vehicles, but as our videos show this light leaves the ground and hovers and goes from side to side, up and down then gets very bright as if searching.the activity continued till 3am the next morning.

Bakersfield, CA
Note: I am an avid night sky watcher and astronomy novice; due to this fact, before publishing this report, and directly after my sighting, I attempted to debunk what I saw, before categorizing it as an unidentified object flying (UFO). Incident: At approximately 23:30 on September 06, 2019, I witnessed a UFO flying at a very high altitude and at a rather slow speed with a NE flight path. When the flashing object first caught my eye, I thought I was seeing maybe a meteor or a falling star; it seemed star-like as it flew closer toward my location. I thought this as I know the night sky during the beginning of fall brings such occurrences. However, because I do study night skies and am aware of certain astronomical happenings, it did not seem likely a falling star or meteor. After I realized it was no star or meteor I looked up flight plans and the flight schedule(s) of my local Meadows’ Field Airport in Bakersfield, CA, and found nothing. The local airport was closed for the evening and by the look of the craft, I knew immediately it was no plane or jet. The object had no “jet” stream, was flashing, the animals were stir-crazy, it flew very close to the ground without causing one thing on the ground to move from its force, as well as the fact that it did not make one sound as it passed above and then beyond my location. These facts coupled with the shape of the craft led me to conclude it was most likely an UFO. I could not believe what I was seeing and rubbed my eyes several times all the while gasping at the closeness and vividness of my encounter. I did not have a camera at the time, but I will describe specifically the appearance of the craft below. Description: Initially the craft looked star like in shape with white and blue lights flashing in an almost aura-like way. As the craft stayed in continuous motion, I began to realize it was a craft of some sort with a seeming flight plan. Instead of star-like, the closer the craft got to my location; I began to see it was triangular in shape and was flashing not only white and blue but read as well. I noticed the lights were also in the shape of a triangle seemingly lining the bottom of the craft; however, it was not until it flew directly over my head and beside me that I also noticed it had what seemed like a second craft or maybe it was the top half of the object, floating above the one below with a tethering of what seemed like a strand of lights which were not flashing but pulsating. The object flew so low to the ground I was concerned as to what might happen as it was flying rather flying rather slow. When the object was in my direct path, I noticed it was dead silent! and did not fly straight as it seemed to drift from side to side sometimes in a half circle and seemingly around obstructions. Once the craft passed my line of view I watched where it would go next and it seemingly disappeared once it hit a certain point by my location. I had a feeling I was to see more that night and I did of which I have video and will submit with my second and final sighting.
