There where 4 bright lights in a shape of a diamond, they where moving slow. After I took the video one of the lights went east and the other three lights remained in the same spot.

Over Nantasket Beach. Bright light hovering. Disappeared and reappeared several minutes later. Looked like motorcycle headlight in the sky.

Its been a couple days of thought and analysis since Friday, August 9, at 5:20 pm. It was sunny and 100+ degrees as I finished readying the inflatable pool to entertain my soon to arrive grandchildren the next morning. At the far end of my driveway where I was filling the pool, an opening between the trees and rooftops provided a small window of observation to the Southwest as the sun was setting. I cast my gaze to that area and wasn’t surprised to see motion in the cloudless sky. The river a half mile away attracts many predator type birds, hawks, eagles, vultures who circle the area looking for a meal. At first that is what I thought I saw even though there were no other birds in the sky and no sounds in the air. Each thing I describe is worth noting. Friday at 5 pm everyone downtown has left for the burbs. They aren’t watching the skies, they aren’t pausing to watch wildlife. The heat wave we’ve been experiencing is too extreme for the birds to be active lest they expire. As I adjusted my new sunglasses I watched him....it. Too far away, too high in the air to be a bird. At that distance a bird, even an Eagle, would have looked smaller. So, I took the sunglasses off to get a different look. It was gone. Put them back on...it reappeared. Okay, I mused, these are polarized. Must make a difference. But it isn’t a bird. As if to confirm that, it began a slow, easy turn and then stopped in mid-air. I am used to seeing birds search for wind currents and appear to be still when working a heat draft or a headwind. I find that entertaining. What I am not used to seeing is birds making a quick, tight, “S” curve, a hard right, stop again and then accelerate out of sight to the West. I considered that we have a National Guard base nearby and when those guys do acrobatics and high speed take offs, it is impressive but at that height their silhouette and small size make them hard to even see. They don’t make clean 90 degree turns either. And the sound they leave behind during acceleration to get to that altitude is recognizable. This vehicle was at the height that multi engine bombers fly at, higher than most commercial planes and unlikely to be doing the maneuvers I observed. It didn’t seem to be one of the Guard fighters.

It was 2am at night and all of a sudden I see a red color pulsating from my peripheral. I open my window and I see a giant spheric circle looking thing pulsating a red color but then it started pulsating blue colors. I recorded it and send it to my dad. He confirmed it but like an idiot he deleted it. On that same day my phone broke

Gloversville, NY
The bright light slowly approaching the roadside leaving me to think mabey a dirt bike with very bright headlamp was going to pull out in front of me so I eased on the breaks. At this point the light crossed in front of me but it was unusually high for any type of land vehicle as it traveled toward me, just to my left side, as if it was oncoming traffic. When the light was directly beside me it shot off behind me extremely fast and disappeared.

The only reason why I'm even saying anything now is because I read a report in the paper somebody seen the same exact thing that I seen it was oval and it the color of it was almost like the color of a potato it was huge and it was quiet and it was there one minute and the next it was gone I didn't see any light but it was just massive

Federal Way, WA
I was driving southbound on I-5 a few miles south of SeaTac airport on Thursday night (Friday morning), around 12:45AM. I travel this way several nights a week and always watch the air traffic around SeaTac and McChord Field. Tonight, I saw an aircraft I first thought was an airliner on the SeaTac glideslope, but it was kind of odd. It had one bright white light that strobed (like two blinks, pause, two blinks), a solid white light, and a fainter solid red light. They didn't look particularly unusual for aircraft lights, just in a configuration I've never noticed before. I can't even say that description of the lights is completely accurate - I was driving, and assuming it was just an airplane, not paying that close attention - but something along those lines. After a few minutes, I realized it wasn't an airliner, it was hovering at a few hundred feet just west of the highway. I assumed it was a helicopter. I glanced up at it as I passed, and nope, it was a perfect dark grey or black triangle, with the lights at the tips. I'd say it was hovering at maybe 200-300ft and maybe about 40ft on a side, and I didn't notice any noise. I wasn't able to stop or go back, but I watched it in my rear-view mirror and it didn't seem to move much, if at all. I drove around a bend out of sight after maybe half a minute. Even at 00:45, I-5 close to SeaTac is a fairly busy highway. There should be plenty of other witnesses, if anyone bothered to look up.

Ocean Isle Beach, NC
At 9:40pm looking directly over the North Carolina ocean on a clear night with a half moon, we saw first one, then 2, deep orange glowing orbs over the ocean at an angle of 30 degrees. On this night, that means these lights appeared stationary, halfway between the ocean horizon and the half moon. From Ocean Isle Beach, 30 degrees into the sky and almost straight out into the ocean, but more like 20 degrees to the right/south. Which was almost directly under the half moon at this time on this date. 3 nights prior, my brother and I saw a green fireball (meteor I assume) Bright green and going straight down into the water, directly straight over the ocean (probably burning up prior to hitting). This night was another clear night and I was on the beachfront deck with 3 others: My wife, my friend, and my sister. All 4 of us witnessed the event: brief but long enough for everyone to turn their heads and witness enough of it (both lights). The event itself: 1 deep orange stationary light appeared in the sky. It was about the overall luminosity of the half moon in the sky, so quite bright. More of an orb than a small point. Since we were spotting meteors, I yelled to look at that one coming right at us. (Thinking it was a large fireball headed directly at us since it appeared stationary.) But then it lasted too long and didn't move, and then started going out exactly as a 2nd one started glowing. Briefly this was like 2 orange headlights in the sky coming at us. As a guess, it seemed like 3 miles out over the open ocean at a 30 degree angle into the sky off the horizon. No boats in the area (some to the distant left and right), and no planes in the sky, at least none anywhere to be seen with lights on them. Visibility was strong, with the milky way band of stars visible directly overhead despite the half moon. The 2 orange lights only lasted about 15 seconds and each appeared stationary, and locked, horizontal to each other. Based on the distance away they appeared like they were 1/10 of a mile apart in the sky. The first light lasted 6 seconds, then started to fade concurrent with an equal and opposite brightening of the 2nd light to the right of the first light. Then the original light was gone and the light to the right was on, for about 5 additional seconds, then both were gone. They came on and off but didn't move otherwise. I went online to see if this is common in NC, and it's ultra common over the last 20 years. Lots of people seeing this type of thing and not a lot of good theories. But this video from 6 months prior seems to show exactly what the 4 of us witnessed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkUs79K940E Closest guess would be military exercises, flares on parachutes. But the lack of planes and the lack of smoke trails and any movement at all are an issue. Also, some other events seem to last longer, this one was rather fast and not useful for flares unless they failed somehow. Kind of a Chinese lantern glow but it was super windy that day and there was no movement, and we were watching the sky all night for meteors and I'm not sure how they could get out over the ocean and only ignite themselves briefly like that. The shutting off of the one on the left and concurrent turning on of a new one on the right make it 10x more eerie than if it was just one odd light, because it seemed like it could signify intelligent intent - which could of course be a coincidence. When filing these reports does anyone get back to you to say what it was, or to see if they can confirm if there were military exercises off the coast of NC that night? In the above similar event video online, it was in December and on a Tuesday rather than a Thursday night, but they said it happened "between 9 and 10 pm" which was a match, also a match in terms of appearing out in the ocean and slightly to the right. Though above video appears like a 20 degree angle and our event was a bit higher in the sky. Just after and seemingly unrelated, way to the left/north up the coast was a very distant storm cloud with frequent lightning within the cloud, looking like stranger things type movie effect. Visible lighting but eerie, and all within 1 cloud. Very distant though and to the left rather than straight/right, where there were no clouds, boats or planes. Though I guess that means some sort of exotic orange ball lighting could an angle.

Danville, IL
Came outside to talk to my mother because I thought I heard my name when during our conversation I looked up to look at the stars and facing away from the house, I saw an extremely bright but small light just slowly inching it's away across the sky. At first, I thought it was just a small star until I saw it start moving. Then I thought it was a plane but saw no blue or red lights blinking. It was also moving TOO slow to be a plane. Then just as I was about to tell my mother, it vanished. I tried to find it and soon it appeared a few feet from its first location and it was extremely bright again and still moving slowly. I managed to get my mother to look but it had already vanished and you could just faintly see a soft light if you strained your eyes enough but my mother couldn't.

The lights traveled in a south eastern direction in an oddly silent straight line formation. I've been around drones but these made no sound as they crossed our view lasting about 5 or so minutes.

UFO Thursday 8/8/2019 - ~6:10 am. Walking the dog in Parrish, Florida. To the north, and possibly over Tampa, I see a very bright light shaped like a relatively small orb (probably bigger than a plane would have looked at that distance). It was moving extremely slowly and had 5 bright beams of light shooting out of it to a good distance and evenly spaced. The object had a trail of what appeared to be a cloud of smoke behind it in a trail which was erratically shaped as if the object had been mobile for some time and moving from over the ocean toward land. The trail was not straight, suggesting a non-linear path, and their was no apparent wind as the clouds were still. Interestingly the “smoke” was lit up, very much in contrast to the clouds around it, of which there were few, so this object was not obscured by clouds. After a couple of minutes, the object began moving more rapidly (but still very slowly) toward the earth and appeared to be naturally extinguishing itself as it got c! loser. At this point the projections of light also dimmed and disappeared. When it got a bit over the tree line where I was, it was totally out, but the “smoke trail” behind it continued to glow as if lit up from within, light hues, not just one color but mostly bright white light. I did not bring my phone with me to walk the dog so I could not take pictures. I ran it to get my wife to look but at that point is was already almost out. It was the most unexplainable thing I’ve ever seen in the sky.

The object was orange brown color. It was hovering in the sky looking west. First, I only saw the tip of what appeared to be the top of the object, then the full body became visible. It was triangular is shape and disappeared with in 20/30 seconds after becoming fully visible. There was no sound. It was very large in size.

August 9, 2016 Let me start by saying that I have always believed that we are not alone in this universe. In the past year I have become more and more interested in finding out the truth and why the government is trying to keep it secret! I had been watching a tv program called “Ancient Aliens: Declassified and “Project Blue Book”when I decided that I would watch the sky at night periodically. I truly wasn’t optimistic about this because I figured my state would obviously have very few sightings if any at all. Two months ago, I was at my sisters house and we were outside on the porch. I just happened to be looking at the sky between the trees when I saw bright light (I just thought was a star) and just watched for a minute or less because the light was moving then quickly shot across the sky like a flash of light. I asked my sister if she seen it and she said no and laughed at me. Since then I haven’t discussed what I see with anyone unless they are at least open to the fact that what I’m saying is true! I’ve seen few more since then but hadn’t been very consistent with watching the sky. Last night I decided to go outside with my granddaughter and look at the stars. It was a clear night and a great night to find/see a falling star! My granddaughter went in the open garage to play for a little while and I continued to watch the sky when I noticed that to the left of me, when I began to notice many (more than I’ve ever seen fly in at the same time) airplanes flying towards our airport. I couldn’t to keep watching because it seemed peculiar and I wondered why. While I was watching the sky I noticed 2 lights in the sky that almost looked like stars but I noticed that they were kind of twinkling and moving together in the same direction. First they went right, down, then appeared to be kind of heading toward the airport, when the one I could keep track of made almost a complete circle. We don’t have anything on Earth that could fly that fast or maneuver in that way! I could not ! make out a shape because it was to far away but the bright light and maneuvering techniques fascinated me enough to find out how to report it and who to report it to! Thank you for listening. I hope it wasn’t to long and drawn out. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Tuesday August 6th, I was working on my thesis for Perceptual Dimensional Frequency Bandwidths. I worked for roughly 6 hours on it, when I finished for the night, I took a late night stroll around the block to clear my head. When i was about three fourths of the way around the block, I received a perceptual message inside my head, with energy that was noticeably foreign, instigating me to look up. When i did, passing me from behind me, about a 600 ft above me, was a squarish, diamond shaped craft, with some sort of pivoting thruster mechanism, extending from the bottom of the craft, that had a green aura of light around it. It made no noise. There was another craft up much further in the other part of the sky. This one was unrecognizable, and only seen as blinking lights. I live right next to the airport, and this occurred in the middle of a flight path. I am sure that this was caught on Cleveland Hopkins radars, or one the respective planes radar. When i got home that night, I went to sleep. I didn't really know how i should have proceeded with the incidient, as I am very busy. I continue on with my life until On Thursday August 8th, I had reached a major breakthrough in my theory. That night while I was sleeping, I woke up into sleep paralysis, with a humanoid figure, with blue scaly skin, and short horns protruding from the head, wearing some sort of tattered robe, was rummaging through my room, as I was paralyzed. The following morning on the 8th of august, I had immediately received a telepathic message through perception, telling me to look at my work. When i went into my work books, I had noticed 9 major pages of my theory, in which I had established a breakthrough in the previous night was missing. I was also sent visual perceptive images of a reptilian, and some very weird emotional energy surrounding it. I have cameras everywhere surrounding the property, and there were no intruders, or signs of forced entry. I started to remember previous events of missing time, and a repressed memory came up from the summer of 2015, while I was living in California and I had seen a mothership out of my bedroom window, over the ocean. I am conflicted with the situations decisive path to it resolution. I am busy, and do not have a whole much time to research where I can go with this. Either mufon, or perhaps the government. I fear that my information may have been controlled by a foreign species of consciousness. I decided to contact this website, and perhaps mufon, before making a police report, as I am not sure there is much the police can do in this situation.
