Payson, UT
On the night of August 17, 2019, my brother and I were looking at the night sky because on a nightly basis we witness this phenomenon. Every single night around 2:30am till dawn while watching the stars we see what looks like a staring the sky moving very fast, they have to be traveling at thousands of miles an hour. And we own a powerful laser pointer and each time we shine it it will disappear and then reappear in a different spot in the sky, or they will up here to come closer and then turn on a 90 degree angle and move away out of sight very quickly. And then it will not be long before we will see another one, that will act the same way with the laser pointer. This happens every single night and is quite impressive. And sometimes they just fly past very fast but certainly under intelligent control.

Memphis, TN
Slower than a meteor, faster than Airplane, heading east to northeast. Swerve pattern across the sky, not regular, so, pilot, but too fast for human craft with light. We have observed meteors, satellite, planets, and airplanes. This was different. . Cool, but a bit scary. Does anyone know of a possible explanation? If not, please log it.

Schertz, TX
I was looking at the sky when I saw a round UFO fly across the sky, and beyond the tree line. It had two sets of long yellow/green lights on the bottom. It was completely silent, though it was close enough that I should have been able to hear an engine. It was very fast, moving quicker than a satellite. The craft did not emit any beam or aura, just four lights. No effects experienced. I live near an airport and regularly see helicopters and military airplanes fly over but never anything like this. This was a flying vehicle that I cannot explain.

Purvis, MS
Bright white light appeared just above tree line. The entire area lit up with a white light. The object moved straight up with accelerating speed. It was very fast and disappeared as it reached directly above us. The object had a domed shape and left a long white tail. There was a blue/green atmospheric ripple in front of the object. Smoke trail was left behind after the object disappeared. Entire sighting of object was about 10 seconds. Smoke trail lasted about 30 seconds.

Anchorage, AK
My window faces the Mountains just east of Anchorage. My cousin and I looked outside and saw a really bright light above the mountains. It shined for about 2 minutes. It faded and then a second light appeared to the right of the first one. This one only lasted for about a minute. Then we looked around the sky and didn’t see anything except for two airplanes in the South. We have no idea what these lights were.

Tiburon, CA
54 year old father driving with his four year old son south along Tiburon boulevard saw a bright red and orange cigar shaped object pass silently approximately 80 feet over his car. The object looked to be about 24 feet long and 3 feet wide and was glowing violet or purple along its shaft and was brighter red-orange at the end, which appeared to be slightly wider than the rest of the cylinder. The object moved in a straight diagonal path from the Tiburon peninsula at approximately the Hilarita neighborhood at the level of the Saint Hilary School directly over Richardson Bay toward Sausalito and the Golden Gate Bridge. As the object passed over the 2016 Kia Sorento SUV, the satellite radio cut off for a second, the dashboard lights flickered and the motor lost acceleration. The father kept watching the object as long as possible but lost sight of the object over Richardson Bay. He then proceeded to drive south along Tiburon Boulevard through downtown to the end of the peninsula between Tiburon and Angel Island where he looked for the object but saw nothing. He waited at the parking lot across from the Caprice Restaurant for approximately three minutes watching the bridge lights of the Golden Gate Bridge with his young son while the car remained idling and parked with the the car windows down. Suddenly, there was an extremely strong downdraft of wind that moved the trees in different directions as well as a loud whooshing sound. The father immediately closed the car windows and drove out of the lot, returning toward Tiburon downtown. At this point, he realized the entire town was now dark and later learned that a blackout had occurred across most of the county that lasted more than an hour.

Winfield, WV
Me and my girlfriend were outside stargazing for about 4 hours. We immediately noticed there were an abnormal amount of planes in the sky, many being in very close proximity. Around 11 o clock, I saw a white object appear out of nowhere and streak through the sky before disappearing. It happened again 15 minutes later, this time we both saw it. We saw it two more times before we went inside. Never seen anything like it.

Deming, NM
I live in Deming, NM, and my boyfriend and his little nephew went up into the Florida Mountains to watch the lights of the city up in the mountains one night. It was very dark as it was overcast and we had been their watching the town and decided to get out of the vehicle. We got out, found some rocks to sit on and just started talking and enjoying the night. As we sat there, we noticed four lights all in a row light up very close to the mountain. The Florida Mountains have a park you pay to enter, but at the time the gates are locked and no one should be up there. We watched them for a few minutes and then the lights started moving along the mountain. At this point we left very quickly because we were scared. I would also like to mention that this is not the first time that I personally have seen strange lights moving in the sky and around the mountain. I love relativity close to these mountains. On the drive home we started talking about the event and we at one point said maybe that they are trying to communicate and the lights to our vehicular device were already on bright and they stared to get brighter. I also work as a bartender and recently one of the regulars at the bar I work at came in and was talking to some other people and he said that he lives in the foothills on the west side of the mountains and him and his wife regularly see these lights in the nighttime between 12:00 midnight and 4:30 am and he claimed that the frequency is about 3-4 times a week. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Comer, GA
The object shot up from the horizon at an extreme speed, almost whistling as it rose, leaving behind a thin smoke trail that glowed a faint white for about 5 seconds after the object disappeared, I would personally say the object went about an honest mile into the air in about 2 seconds before it suddenly disappeared and almost got sucked into nothingness. This object had a defined bright blue rectangular shape soaring with a neon-lime green cone-shaped tip. This object was massive even in relation to its extreme distance from me and was also extremely bright and lit up the surrounding area with such brightness it was almost equal to a helicopter spotlight, but with a much larger radius shining on the ground. Sent a true chill and tingle through my body as I was shaken to the core for a reason I could not explain. Truly a once in a lifetime experience.

Looked like a meteor but 10000 times bigger. It was extremely white and lit up the whole sky. Moved extremely slow. Then it went over my tree line and was gone.

Honolulu, HI
Standing on beach at EWA beach, myself and 2 others were looking at the sky and noticed there was an orb cutting across the sky. At first it looked like it was a satellite however as we watched it, it split into 3 objects and went in opposite directions. Object was dull white. Very visable to the naked eye. Whole thing was like 45 seconds.

Lebanon Junction, KY
I was driving home from work I was almost to the train tracks in Lebanon Junction when I saw a big almost like a rock or something I didn’t get a good look at it but it was green and it was huge and it had a streak following behind it almost like a neon green streak and it didn’t go down towards the grown (sic. Ground) it went across the sky but it started off slow and then took off really fast like I saw a quick glimpse of it and then it shot off it was the craziest thing I have ever seen I wish I could have seen it longer or at least stopped my car to see it better. I have heard someone seeing lights in lj before but this wasn’t a light it was like a round ball type thing. It was glowing when it went across the sky.

Greensboro, NC
In August 2019 about 8:00pm I was looking north at a Thunderhead in the distance from my home. A speck in sky just left of the Clouds caught my eye. It didn’t seem to be moving so I grabbed my Binoculars and observed a brown object at an unknown distance and altitude. Approaching aircraft in GSO where obviously closer so I would estimate the craft was 8-10 miles and around 10,000- 20,000 AGL. The craft was turning while stationary and from what I could observe it had a hole in the fuselage but as it turned it became solid. It looked smooth at some points but then as it began to move slowly towards the thunderhead it stopped turning and looked jagged. Almost like looking like a rock. It was brown or brownish the entire time and stayed at the same altitude. My wife observed the craft with my binoculars for a moment but she couldn’t keep a fix on it as the sun set. It did give a slight reflection as the sun went down in front of the clouds but it disap! peared towards the east behind the trees. I would like to note that the first observation through my binoculars the craft looked like a donut. After about 3-5 minutes I never saw that angle again as it moved.

Sun City West, AZ
I was on my patio which faces south and I was looking to the Southwest one night and I saw two black triangular UFO’s which flew from west to east and I can see them in the distance to the Southwest they moved very quickly zigzagging back-and-forth faster than any aircraft I think we have and then one shot this beam to the ground which exploded in a huge ball of flame.

New York City (Brooklyn), NY
The event occurred yesterday at 7pm in prospect park Brooklyn. I was in the park with my wife and daughter and laying on my back staring up the swallows flying high above. A small white dot caught my attention (a small star bright light) much higher than commercial airline flights seem to be and way higher than the swallows above. At first I thought nothing of it as it could be something reflecting light from the sun, but the object started to move to the left. After it moved it really caught my attention and a few seconds just stopped. After the obeject had stopped moving, two more lights (or star bright dots) appeared directly underneath the original object. It was in perfect vertical straight line underneath the original dot and totaled three lights. The three lights all proceeded to move left again and after a few seconds of following the dots/stars I tried to alert my wife and point out the general direction. In this time more had appeared sporadically (in no formation or visibly noticeable) formation. The number grew till around 7 stars could be seen and spaces all over the area of sky. The whole event lasted around 2 minutes and my wife (to my frustartition) didn’t managed to track or witness it. I’m actually sad that I alone witnessed it and would have even tried to contact a complete stranger to highlight what I was witnessing! I would honestly love to know if any sighting (other than mine) happened and up till yesterday would have literally laughed at anyone telling me they had witnessed something extra ordinary or a UFO. This really changed for me yesterday and tried in all ways to rantionalize and explain what it could have been, both civilian and military wise. Hope to hear from you back and all the best.

I grabbed my boyfriend and his mom and we watched it do a bit. It may still be happening. No sounds, just random flashing with the middle area most active. Have never seen this before. They're getting brave. Armor up guys.
