Santa Clarita, CA
Watching the breaking new coverage of the Saddle Ridge fire in California. When the female reporter says, "You know, leaving at that time, at I think, it’s about 2:10, I have left my house in Santa Clarita, usually it takes..." the helicopter camera pans over to the left from the plane dropping water on the fire, you can then see a formation slowly floating above the hills to the right. At first glance it looks like a fully white sombrero wearing character. It's moving at a much slower pace than the plane. Then the footage quickly cuts away back to the reporter. I have no idea what else it could by with that shape.

Ontario, CA
I was driving eastbound on the 10 freeway through Ontario, California, between the Archibald Avenue and Haven Avenue off ramps. Off the right side of the freeway, I saw a streak of bright, white light suddenly appear and curve downward. I thought it was a shooting star, but then it instantly changed direction, flew up a bit and disappeared. The entire thing lasted about three or four seconds.

I was laying in bed looking north west out sliding glass door . I am at about 5,000 ft and look out over the valley floor. I noticed a flashing light in sky, seemingly far away. it was tiny, but intensely bright. It grew larger as it came toward my location. At first i thought perhaps something from Edwards AFB or a plane headed toward Bakersfield airport. it was difficult to judge speed as it was coming mostly diretly toward me. not knowing its size i could not judge. it then move 90 degrees to the right and at that angle of view i could tell it was going fast . It then went up, down, right .left like no helicopter or drone or aircraft could maneuver. As it moved across my field of vision and came closer it could distinguish a white, red, green and blue light on the craft. No craft I know of is that shape or displays lights in a triangle shape and those colors. the maneuvers were not curves, but abrupt 90 degree angles. it also rose and fell at an am! azing rate of speed. I got out of bed, watched it from my deck from which i can see many miles. until it was obscured by trees between me and the craft.

Alta Loma, CA
I witnessed 11 UFO’s flying in formation. There were 6 flying tight in a triangle configuration I.e 3-2-1, and five flying in a broken formation resembling a triangle shape. They were on a heading of 010 flying approximately 1200mph at an altitude of approximately 100FL. This I calculated from a commercial jet that shortly thereafter intersected their flight path. Thier flight heading and flight speed remained constant throughout my viewing. I watch them for approximately 20 seconds. They grew faint until they were no longer visable. There were no contrails like the nearby jet and there were no associated sound

San Jose, CA
I was visiting McDonald's restaurant last night on Blossom Hill Rd. and Kooser Ave. while sitting in my car in the parking lot with the window open I started hearing a noise that sounded like someone dragging a big bag of rocks across the sidewalk very slowly. as I exited my vehicle I looked up above my head into the night sky. I saw 3 distinct small red lights in triangular formation that were blinking together but not always consistent. This area above my head in the sky always has heavy commercial airline traffic. The lights traveled in such a consistent orientation that it led me to believe that this was 1 craft, and not 3 separate crafts. The speed of this craft was very slow. I observed that this craft was also well under the elevation of the airport traffic itself. I have seen planes land and take off at night and day and am familiar with the mass silhouette of area that the wings and fuselage cover. this craft by comparison was maybe 9 to 10 times the size of a full moon in the night sky. as it passed over my head I was trying to determine the shape of this craft. I did not see any defining edges to this craft no matter where I looked for it. It is as if the lights were visible but not the craft. The best way to describe what I saw while looking for defining edges was that this craft appeared to me to be cloaked. showing 3 lights in triangular formation that were on a craft that was cloaked from my view.

At approximately 9:40 pm, I heard the distinctive sound of fighter jets passing overhead. We hear that maybe once a month or so & I often run out back to watch what seem to be F18s or F15s fly by usually n pairs, usually heading roughly south. we live very near Moffett field as well as the San Jose Airport & a small airport for private planes I believe is called "Reid–Hillview" for private planes. The sky is always full of planes, big & small, commercial & military. Google & NASA both have a presence at Moffett. On this occasion is was dark, night time, a not entirely black sky, very polluted with with lights was full of planes as always. 2 Fighters were heading south at a moderate altitude (probably several thousand feet) they had several sets of lights on. In an unusual twist only a few minutes later a second set was heard. I went out back again and watch 2 more fighters streak loudly southward. Both times I called my 8 year old son out to see, the second time I called out the whole family. My wife & daughter, not terribly interested took a long time to come out by which time my son & I had been watching a bizarre, triangle formation of red & only red lights crossing the the entire sky from the Santa Cruz mountains, eventually passing over the TV & radio towers on the peak of the east hills. It took about 2-3 minutes for the formation of objects to cross the entire sky & disappear from view, into the distance. The objects held a distant but incredibly accurate triangle formation. The red lights were not "blinking" in a regular pattern, they were alternating in an ever-changing coordinated, often very rapid sequence like no aircraft or group of aircraft that I, personally have ever seen. There was no discernible repetition or pattern to the blinking. It seemed coordinated & deliberate almost like Morse Code or music. As the objects passed over the nearby foothills they took a surprisingly long time to disappear into the distance. To me this was an indication that they were higher & larger than they had initially appeared. There was no particular sound that seemed associated with these particular objects. Usually we can associate the many sounds coming from the crowded sky with the objects responsible. The fighters for example are far louder than anything else ever is. There were a hand full of other odd characters in the sky that night. Presumably & seemingly conventional aircraft with somewhat odd light patterns, always-on bright white lights, more & brighter lights than the usual commercial or private aircraft seeming to circle around the entirety of the silicon valley for most of an hour before/after the strange triangle passed overhead. My son and I watched this formation from one horizon to the other. My wife & daughter saw the second half. I didn't go for my camera because I didn't want to miss anything. Most likely this was a formation of drones or stealth fighters. The lights were weird to the point that they must have been made deliberately weird. I wish I had footage so I could try to figure out which symphony or what Morse code message some Goole nerd had probably programmed into the light pattern just to be a smart ass . What ever it was I didn't particularly like it, less for it's weirdness & more for it's condescension.

On October 7th, 2019, while commuting to work in the afternoon, I've witnessed a long cylindrical shape, aluminum material twirling UFO. The color was a pink colored UFO. It appeared that the UFO is on top of each other twirling in vertical motion. (Total 4 cylindrical shape)The weather was bright and sunny. I was driving on Chino Hills Parkway when I witnessed the UFO. Several drivers that were on the same driving direction where I was going have also witnessed the UFO.

Palm Springs, CA
My husband and I were traveling west on the 10 freeway in Palm Springs, CA on our way to Lake Arrowhead on vacation and at 10:10 in the morning we witnessed two white rectangular shaped aircraft/UFOs measuring around 50-100 feet long each, traveling west in formation. They crossed over the 10 freeway right above us before the 62 turnoff. Following this, they reversed their direction and headed East, following the freeway, towards Indio before disappearing from our sight. They had no visible signs of propulsion. No wings, no tail, no engines, no windows, no nose.. just plain white flying rectangles that made no sound as they few above us. When we arrived at our destination, we contacted 29 Palms Airbase and reported the sighting. They told us they had nothing tracked on radar.

I was outside in the backyard with my kids this past Sunday when I saw these white spheres floating across the sky. Probably balloons...but looked pretty cool almost like slow moving stars during the day… They seemed to be moving against the wind but who knows...hoping you could share!

So it was the night of the 5th. I was getting ready to go to the store and I was looking at the sky cuz you was very clear that night and I just so happen to see a shooting star and I was wowed I've never seen a shooting star before I think I'm seeing things move but not anything that close-up I actually saw it fits out or whatever that close to me and then shortly after that I'm looking up and I see something that appears to be a star but it's moving across the sky like it was almost like a shooting star happen and then directly from the place where a phased out as I'm looking into something that appears to be like a star and going across the sky in about 2-3 minutes I watched it go all the way towards Emeryville and the sky was it passed under stars and it look just like a star but starts don't move that way so it's been kind of messing with me for a couple of days it's very playing over and over my head so I thought that I was just say something about it

Los Angeles, CA
Flying in on Delta Flight 3886 LAS to LAX on 10/3/19. I was sitting window on the right side of the plane. In sound mind and body. Not impaired. Saw Goodyear blimp in the distance over downtown Los Angeles. I saw flights incoming from the ocean heading in the opposite direction lining up for landing. I was looking down at the new RAMS stadium which was below me. I looked up and a sphere zoom past the plane, roughly 1/4 mile away at eye level. It was shiny (reflective/not glowing) Below the object looked like a heat wave signature. It was moving parallel to the earth. The heat signature was below it, not behind it thrusting it forward.

I witnessed 10 or 11 spherical glowing objects in formation swarming and hovering near the top of Ring Mtn. -Corte Madera. I very quickly ran up to 2 firemen emergency responders to ask them to quote "take a quick glance at what is going on over here". They flat out refused to take 5 steps over to the side to look at what I was trying to show them. They were handling some kind of a medical emergency, but it would have been really nice to have them witness this because this was highlight of the whole night.

Escondido, CA
Just before sunset. Object in hovering-type behavior. Slow moving. Slowly moved from SSW towards the North. It intermittently faded in and out from view as it moved. Then it was gone for a few minutes and reappeared a few degrees to the South and started moving towards the South. It was difficult to identify the shape. Using binoculars it appeared ash-like but reminiscent of the To The Stars Academy footage. Kind of bulky on one side, narrow on the other. But not egg-shaped. Seemed to rotate in a similar manner. I'd guess the height was anywhere from 5 miles up to 20 miles. I already tried to look up if any weather balloons were released but couldn't find any leads.

This happened in Bakersfield California. I went to the bathroom and came outside and I was looking at the stars and before I saw it I was thinking about UFO’s and my mom was in the car talking on the phone and I looked up and the next thing you know I see the M shaped craft with red lights on but I didn’t see the body of the craft only the lights making the letter M it was hovering in the sky over our place the craft was the same color as the sky and I yelled out to my mom to look and she said what and then she saw it right there hovering with the lights turning on and off,it lasted almost 15 seconds.
