Egg Harbor Township, NJ
Traveling southeast on Washington Ave, made the left turn on to the parkway when I looked up and noticed what resembled a TR-3B craft. I could clearly see the black triangle silhouette against the night sky and it had three lights on the bottom, with the front one blinking at a steady rate. Craft was moving very slowly not far above the tree line heading northwest. Did not hear any noise from the craft in my car despite the low altitude. I have noticed military craft practicing in this area previously, but I have never seen anything resembling a stealth bomber craft like what I saw tonight.

I saw a small light become brighter and as it did another and another and another. A total of 5 lights above the Organ mountains in a straight line. Then it was gone. A few minutes later it happened again in a different spot in the sky.

El Reno, OK
AC broken in home and cooler in backyard on lounge chair. Viewing Saturn, very bright, and Jupiter at 180° and 200°, at 50° and 30° respectfully. Jupiter looked as if red and green lights were rotating around it left to right. Get binocular for better viewing. Notice moving red and green light in same sky; 160° at 30°. Object flashing and moving west, rapidly! Followed it going west at apparent same altitude. Suddenly stopping and again moving west. Moved west of Jupiter to approximately 220°, same elevation. At this point it did a triangular move, going north, east and back west. Move back and forth, then advanced NW heading 300° rapidly and disappeared into western sky. With binocular on object it was difficult to track its movement, plus at times it was erratic. Shorty after sighting but eye glass on flight at high altitude heading 300• to 120°. Was able to distinguish large jet aircraft. No sound from aircraft or unidentified object. Heck, I'll go!

Garden State Parkway (near Atlantic City Xprsway, Exit 38 B), NJ
8/12/2019 9:16pm My husband and I were driving North on NJ Garden State Parkway a few miles away from the Atlantic City Expressway entrance to exit 38 B. To the left of Parkway some distance away above the tree line I noticed two bright white round parallel lights heading east and then quickly turning south onto the parkway. Then suddenly, all these bright white lights appeared and illuminated a 40 foot triangle craft. We could not believe what we were seeing. The craft kept moving slowly towards the traffic, the lights looked like they dimmed slightly and then craft dropped to about 50 feet above the road and hovered above the parkway. Cars were passing under it. Light was shining through the windows on the top of the craft. Bottom of the craft had many bright white lights of varying sizes along with raised areas and small square indented panels that looked like glass that emitted soft white yellow lights. Craft was light metallic silver color. It did not make any noise.

Overall, I had taken 7 pictures while driving on I-235 between Valley West Drive and 50th where I exited. Of the 7, 6 show the triangle set of lights. This was not seen by me personally at the time of the photos. Nothing else odd needed to report.

Object was a white dot in a clear blue sky, when I looked at it thur binoculars it was oval shape and looked different then with the naked eye it was white on the edge towards the sun and the rest looked transparent, clear and oval in shape. I had my camcorder set up, but I had a bad glare so I pointed it in the general direction of the object, when reviewing the chip on the tv I could see the object and other objects zipping near and around the main object I could not see the other objects with the naked eyes or the binoculars. I didn’t see the object leave with the naked eye but I could see it was gone, while in the process of trying to film the object I moved the angle of camcorder which was on a tripod and at one point lost it but was still in the general area and still caught other objects, when I could no longer see the main object I reposition the camcorder at house level and let it run in till the tape had ended. There were no objects at that level only when it was positioned up at about 70-80 degrees up.

Possibly a helium-filled balloon, carrying a scientific payload?? PD

White dot on a clear blue sky hovering with the naked eye looked like a white dot/star but thru binoculars it was oval shape, the end towards the sun was bright but as you moved to the other side it was transparent or clear. I did not see any others objects in the sky at that point I was using my camcorder at the same time after the event and when the tape ran out I viewed the tape on my tv and could see the object which looked like a white dot I could also see multiple objects near and around object. When I first turn the camcorder towards the object I had a big glare in the view box I tried to shade it, but it didn’t work so I pointed it in the general area and I did get the object not knowing that I had it I moved the camcorder again think I had a better angle in which I didn’t, I was either above or below at this point but I still was catching other objects zipping around.

8am approximately I was in my backyard video taping as I was reading I looked up and there was a small white dot, I got my binoculars and looked, it was oval shape and the end towards the sun was bright but as you moved to the left it was transparent looking, I pointed my camcorder at it but had a glare on the view screen which I could not shade so I pointed the camcorder in the general direction after awhile I readjusted the camcorder thinking it was a better angle, after the object left I lowered the camcorder to almost a level view. After the tape ended I looked at the tape on tv at first I did have it on the camcorder and it looked like a white dot and there were other objects flying near and around it when I readjusted at one point I did lose the object but was in the same general area and caught more objects the main object was still there though I didn’t level the camcorder in till the object left.

I was sitting in the car with my family parked in front of a beach. Everyone in the van was a sleep except me because we had been driving all night. I was watching the waves crash on the beach. I looked down at my phone for a second and looked up and saw a floating object above the water. I thought it was a helicopter. But there was no noise and there was no wind coming from it. It also couldn’t be a airplane because airplanes can’t stay in one spot. It sat there for about two minutes and then flew away over the houses next to where we are parked. And I never saw again.

Leominster, MA
We’re walking down the road and saw what looked like an orb then turned into three orbs. Noticed it was a weird triangle shape once above us, not a plane for sure. It came above us, stopped, stayed there for a bit, then quickly continued moving past us. When near our house a second one appeared after a fast shooting star. This object was also a triangular shape. Both of them would move quick then randomly stop and just hover.

A less bright light followed its motions. Phone died after getting good footage.

Outside in the desert where there was no light pollution, two people witnessed a craft flying high in the sky in an erratic pattern, very quickly in multiple directions for a duration of about 5 to 7 minutes, it was too far away to record.

Hudson, MA
I was driving in my truck doing about 75 to 80mph on the 495 north highway when I saw this large flash on light form..then shoot like a star but only 100feet above ground. It flashed bright enough to leave a trail in my eyes after I closed them. I had 1 passenger and we both said, "What the hell was that?" And agreed it moved awful strange and disappeared so fast it was not something we could explain. Too close for a shooting star but looked just like one. Right above my truck. Then we felt really emotional over it... With no explanation.

Thompson's Station, TN
Driving northbound on Lewisburg, 3 ½ miles south of 840. Routine route. First saw a bright green light which appeared far out to the left of a long straight shot of road, with a smaller blinking red. Approximately a 3/4 mile closer, and I had ruled out airplane/helicopter, per my trajectory. Another quarter mile and I slowed while passing it. I appeared to be fully stationary around 35-40 ft off the ground, above and slightly to the right of a house that sits directly on Lewisburg. The object was probably no more than 100ft away. It was completely dark out, with no noticeable lights coming from any of the surroundings. I barely had time to scry its silhouette, but it appeared to be roughly cigar-proportioned, but with more geometric angles with a tip pointing towards the road. There were two weaker, blinking white lights that started on the small face towards me which angled down around its underbelly geometrically. The green and red lights seemed to be pointing horizontally or upward, I can’t recall. I’m thinking it was around 12 (length) x 4 x 4 ft. hard to tell. No sound that I could hear over the car motor. There were no powerlines, or any other objects around, it was clearly above any trees. The only explanation I could even begin to consider were two or more drones flying in sync, so that I mistook the “length”. However, the lights (green especially) were so strong that no drone could sustain that kind of power, let alone waste it by pointing main lights anywhere but downward.

I was watching a clip I filmed, I was actually filming small clips as I drove of an industrial area of Lubbock for an art reference as I was driving back home with my family to Abernathy (just north of Lubbock). It seems normal, like as if plane tracers. Then it seems like something is flying side by side, then behind the FIRST trail at the top something starts flowing brighter (as if it's being fired on or speeding up possibly?) Then flashing sequence lights seem to come out of ...well nowhere but around in proximity to the first trail O-o. Honestly, I am stumped.

Headed towards the ground at a slight angle really fast. Had a trail/tail behind it. Went down till I couldnt see if from trees blocking view. Was going so fast it seemed like it would have hit the ground, but trees obstructed our veiw.

Then i grabbed my phone and took pics fast cuz it was moving so fast. Then it stopped and shot straight up into space. No way could that been anything but a ufo. And i never believed in ufo's til now. There was no sound and it was changing shape.
