Antonito, CO
My fiance and I were watching fireworks all around us. We looked over to mount San Antonio, when we saw 3 orange lights moving slowly right above the Mountain. I tried to take video, but it didn't show up very well. It lasted approximately 6 minutes and just disappeared.

Clinton, CT
Two large, independent, bright, slow moving "lights" like low altitude meteors travelling from east to west, then growing dimmer and shifting direction to travel north. First one then the second, then growing dimmer and disappearing. No flights in vicinity on flightradar24. (( Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)

Justice, IL
On July 04, 2019, me and my fiancé ((name deleted)) was watching Fireworks at our Apartment In Justice, Illinois at 2158 when I noticed the following. Two objects floating side by side slowly Coming from the West. The two objects were one solid color, but seems to be flicking. They both slowly came from the West, then at one point stopped simultaneously, paused momentarily, and then proceeded Directly North. No more than at least two minutes passed before we saw another object, same color and all Moving slowly from the same West direction, come to the same spot where the previous two objects had stopped. It paused for about the same length of time, then proceeded on the same North heading as the previous Two objects. Almost immediately after the third object was out of sight, this forth object did not come to the same spot, pause and then head North. It headed straight north and out of sight. My fiancé was only able to catch on video the third object. We both were bewildered and shocked!! We spoke via telephone with the source of this report, and he sounded to us to be both sincere, and sober-minded. We suspect that he is a very reliable witness. PD

I noticed a green light after a firework went off. I thought it was a firework, but then realized it was flying around the sky and not going out. I did my best to film in shock. It zoomed across town and back a few times. It came back twice right over me and turned red. Looked like green lights circling it. I don’t know what I saw. A drown? I really don’t think so. This was out of the ordinary and I’m in shock. I'v got to know if I really saw a ufo

Cecil, PA
My husband and I were on our way home, coming up a hill from 980 Road (McDonald PA towards Cecil PA) when at the top of the hill we both saw a very bright red (almost had orange to it also) sphere. For a very split second we both thought firework because it the 4th and all but then quickly realized it didn’t have a smoke tail, no immediate implosion or noises made like it could have been a firework- it was absolutely silent where we were at this moment because we had the radio off and windows down. The best way to explain or reference how high this sphere was in the sky, was that it was just above the distant tree line (10 or less miles out I’d say) but close enough to looked pretty large and to be able to see the sphere shape to it from the bright glow. We both realized we have never ever seen a tower where this sphere was and it was definitely bigger than a blinking red tower light in the semi short distance it was from us and this was entirely way too bright to not have noticed something that obvious the hundreds of times we’ve driven this route home. The sphere’s motion was pretty stagnant, did not obviously flash- it had veils of transparency from its glow but nothing could be seen indefinitely from where we were, solid but a beautiful bright inbetween tones of red & orange glow in color. We passed through some dense tree area trying to figure out what we just saw & my husband saw it through the trees but it looked further away and smaller in size. We attempted to turn at the bottom of the hill (Rt. 50) to try and follow it but half way down the road we hadn’t caught any sight of it and thought it would have disappeared by the time we could get to a good clearing. Neither of us have ever seen something that beautifully bright before. We tried to think of everything possible that it could have been and rationally there is nothing to justify it. The video of the woman in SC or NC who recorded the red sphere in the sky (Dece! mber of 2018, I believe) is exactly what we saw and she liter! ally exp lained and described the same exact thing we saw to an identical tee. Even the same questions talking through the what it could have beens. The only difference is that it was much closer to us then where it was to her, in her video. However the imagine on her video did not give any justice to what you saw with the naked eye.

Laurel, MT
Before the firework show started, my husband and I noticed a small white light in the shape of an orb, the altitude was higher than the fireworks and potentially the clouds. The object appeared in the sky, moved to left for 5 seconds, stopped changed color to green, then back to white. Then instantly disappeared

Afterwards the object reappeared in sky from where it looked as though it completely vanished...traveling above my home Southeast from reappearing in sky. Event was witnessed from myself, my daughter and my mother

Williston, VT
Just before the fireworks, looking west we saw a bright flashing, almost neon blue light moving across the sky. At first we thought it was a plane until it stopped mid air and hovered for 20 min. or so. It then reversed direction, disappearing and reappearing. Several times it increased its speed going much faster than a drone or airplane. It disappeared again only to reappear seconds later in the eastern sky. No sound what so ever.

Peabody, MA
Looking up in the northeast sky, I observed a bright white large object. Oval object about the size of 5-6 of the largest starts all put together into one object. I was stunned to see it and wanted to get my phone to take a picture, but as I watched the object, it faded away and was gone.

Harlan, KY
It started out as a circle with a red somewhere around it. It looked like a star in the sky but then I looked around and no other stars was in the sky so I watched it for about 30 minutes. It then shot straight up at a fast pace in the sky and hovered there for about 30 minutes. Then it took off going north at a very fast paced speed. Faster than anything I’ve ever seen.

Palm Coast, FL
At approximately 21:25 I went into my back yard to see neighbors fire works next street over. I saw a green flashing light moving in a northerly direction at a very quick speed. I thought to myself that thing is moving pretty fast. My first thoughts was a plane but then it made a large circular movement at a speed and maneuver no conventional air craft or helicopter could possibly perform. After it’s maneuver it went stationary for about 20sec. After about 10 sec it started flashing a bright red. I did not want to lose sight of it however I wanted to grab someone to validate what I saw. I was gone for 5 seconds and when I returned it was gone. This is something I have never witnessed before.

Palm Coast, FL
Witnessed and photographed bright amber colored orb in the night sky over Palm Coast, FL. My fiancée and I were looking facing SE to SSE toward the south end of town. Seemingly out of nowhere, this bright object seemingly manifested itself and slowly traversed about 1/3rd the visible night sky above us. The object was observed traveling from west to east at approximately 45 degrees above the horizon. The object didn’t blink and had no glare like a bright light in the distance; nonetheless, the object was easily the brightest point in the sky. The object silently and steadily moved across the sky; stopping In place and hovering in the sky a few times before taking a 90 degree turn that appeared to be up and to the east. At this time (2116 hours) I photographed the object with my iPhone camera.

Hinesville, GA
At 915 pm on the night of July 4, 2019. I witnessed a bright orange/reddish light low on the horizon approaching from the East at what seemed a high rate of speed. I kept listening for the sound of a plane or chopper but as the light got brighter (closer, it seemed) it began to seem to slow. when almost directly overhead it veered toward the north and the light slowly dissipated as if gaining altitude and disappearing as it would if traveling very fast away from Earth...

Imperial Beach, CA
I was watching a fireworks display at the imperial beach pier, as the sky lit up from the fireworks I saw a teardrop shaped craft flying horizontal towards the ocean. The object could have been oval or circular with an air stream behind it but I am not sure. I pointed to it and said "what is that?" a person next to me said "I saw it too" it looked like a falling star but it wasn't going downward, just straight across the sky. After it passed for about 5 seconds it disappeared

Canoga Park, CA
It was on Fourth of July. I was having a conversation with someone outside and I saw three bright light in the sky that was line up straight from the top to bottom. And did not move or any flashing until I saw one that made a tear drop that caught my attention because I thought it was a shooting star, but it wasn’t it’s like a teardrop then the three bright light made a triangle shape and it was a perfect shape! I was recording it and it was at night. I thought it might be a drone or fireworks but it wasn’t that. I couldn’t explain but we all saw that and i couldn’t explain how it works or what it could be.

Homewood, AL
Triangular craft, red and blues lights--I believe we caught a side view of it. It moved very swiftly back and forth, almost like a drone but much too fast, high, and clearly intelligent to have been one. It would curve, hover, and dip in the air. It looked as though it were watching the Vulcan that night as the fireworks went off, the entire time. It would hover downward into the trees every now and again, only twice throughout the duration of time, and always either in a curved motion or a clean vertical hover. I have multiple videos of this experience.

Gadsden, AL
It was moving very fast then came to complete stop then shoot in different direction. I have pictures of craft. Many people seen this and were talking about it on the way back to vehicles. It was triangular with red lights on the corners and a bright blue light in the middle. The bottom of the craft had some "L" looking markings and it was completely silent. When it stopped it caused some crazy looking vortexes before shooting off in different directions. Ever person I talked to seen it. Not like you could miss it. It was very large and low in the sky.

Appleton, WI
My friend and I were outside and she saw the first one before I could grab my phone to get this second one. Her phone was too blurry, so I shot this one. It was a reddish orange color and didn't move like the medical helicopter or planes that sometimes fly over. We often like looking up at the sky, I am a storm spotter, and my friend identifies stars for NASA that haven't been discovered yet.

Walton, NY
I was having dinner and saw the two ufo’s immediately over the mountain across The Valley around Dunk hill. I immediately told my friend about the phenomena, because when I first saw it it was so unusual looking, that I could not mistake it for something else but an ufo. We saw them first coming towards us They probably came around half a mile if our location. When all of us starting to look at the ufo’s they started first going backwards towards the east and then with an incredible speed into the stratosphere that we could only see the fireball faintly, and then disappearing in a second totally. While all this happening there was no sound. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Bright white light streaked at high rate of speed. Stopped and blinked green, and then back to white. It sped directly away out of sight.

Fontana, CA
While lighting fireworks and watching neighbors fireworks in the sky I seen what was the shape of a triangle coming from the NE. At 8pm there was still enough light to make out aircraft that was in route to Ontario airport or an nother destination, and they were frequently moving at a predetermined amount of time, I could see the helicopters flying in and out infrequently, but you could tell they where helicopters, a couple of low flying private planes could also be seen, but then I seen a triangle moving in from the NE then turning and going south. The group wasn't moving fast and was pretty quiet compared to all the FW's that was going off. I looked in my truck looking for my binoculars it wasn't there and I wasn't carrying my phone. So I moved to a darker area to focus on those aircraft, and I could make out bands on the wings, I want to say they that they had two green bands, one on each wing, but it was dark and what they were escorting was a very bright! golden/yellow craft that I could not make out completely but that it was very bright and leading the two escort jets, and they headed south. From my perspective if you hold you two fingers in the air, arm extended, and leave a gap of about an inch, that's approx how close they were. My only fault is I didn't record anything.
