Highway 20, NM
I saw metallic Shiney orb hiding bush to bush then hit my car hovered by my car after hitting my car so hard it put huge dent in my steal frame. Then hovered by my door and shut power off my car and friends truck then stared at me with its Shiney surface like a mirror for about 5 minutes I stared at it it was only two feet from my car door then it hovered down the side of my car went behind my trunk of my car then shot across highway 20 and disappeared there is more to what I saw it would take to long to right about this happened in 1987 I will never forget what I saw the orb was the size of a basketball or little smaller it seemed to power itself from the environment around the orb and sucked power from my car battery.. there were no lights just the sun reflecting off the metal from the orb and no sound most important no sound silent fast moving any direction it wanted and had intelligence.

I was staying on third floor at Pink Champagne Motel on Hand Ave and Atlantic Ave on top level facing ocean something bright caught my eye flying fast over ocean it stopped over ocean a half a block away and just hovered it hurt my eyes to look at like looking at welding. I felt as though it was aware of me observing and taking pictures it came closer and lower I suddenly realized that it can fly at amazing speed fear came over me I jumped up ran into motel room before I closed door I looked back and saw it pull back and go down into ocean it was petrifying still to this day I’ve been so foggy and confused since encounter . I have pictures from two other incidents in same time frame which I also have pictures of if you’re interested I can also share them . You need to zoom in on emerald green object in each picture it was a beautiful clear night no clouds very dark sky there’s no other explanation other than UFO

Williamson, NY
Observed what we thought to be a satellite at first. Object began changing direction quickly, went very fast and stopped on a dime. Could observe lights that did not seem to be blinking but could see red, blue. Took pictures, zoomed in and noticed object was a different shape in each picture. Observed object seemingly navigate in and out of the clouds/smoke. Object seemed to come closer to earth a few times, could see a jellyfish-like shape and movement. Object seemed to have a tail but only when it was moving rapidly. We often stargaze at night and have never seen anything like this before. Could observe other stars near/around the object and a planet off to the west.

Jekyll Island, GA
We saw five identical orange orbs in a horizontal line. We watched them for about 10 seconds but were unclear as to how long they had been there. They momentarily shifted and became three orbs lined vertically. This was probably less than half a second. They disappeared immediately after shifting positions but we thought there might still be one of the orbs moving and flashing to the right. We were standing on the shoreline and saw this take place right above the ocean.

Ardmore, AL
Saw a craft maybe 150-200 feet up hovering and it looked to be around the size of a golf cart and it was sporadically shining down light that looked like a laser that was a greenish color. Then all of the sudden some of my land on my property caught on fire where the laser was shining so I ran towards the fire to see if I could put it out and luckily it was small enough for me to stomp out and didn’t get out of control yet, after I got the fire out I looked back up for the craft but it was gone.

Myrtle Beach, SC
Circle light appeared in the sky for approximately 5 minutes. The circle was moving back and forth and up and down in all directions kind of like it was forming a shape. Light was also flashing at times and appeared green in color. I have a partial video of the incident but won't let me upload.

NEW BRITAIN, CT
I noticed an orange orangey, red colored star shaped object in the sky. It look like a craft that had five arms per se to the naked eye with a picture revealed so much more later that evening. My brother called me to inform me that there were UFO sightings in and around the very area that I noticed this craft, that were reported in the news .

Kerrville, TX
Shortly after our 11:30 a.m. appointment began in our backyard which has a 180° unobstructed view from the southeast to the northwest, I noticed the object and asked" what is that in the sky?". The three of us were standing on the new patio the contractor had poured the entire length of the back of our house whose front faces South. I wondered aloud if it were another Chinese spy balloon since we all knew one had traversed most of the US before being destroyed off the east coast in the spring. As we watched the object move SSE the Contractor said it was too fast & too steady for a balloon. He also said the wind was coming out of the wrong direction for a balloon too move that way & that wind driven balloons are not that steady or straight as the whitish, squashed football object that continued across the sky. When it passed behind there was West Wall of the house, the Contractor & I hurried it to the front of the house by walking south on the patio past the garage. The Mason pointed to the object coming up to due South at the same altitude, speed & path. We could not tell how far away from our vantage point or how large the craft was. It continued on the same silent path until it passed out of sight to the SSE. It traversed more than 180 degrees of the sky in under a minute. I wasn't going to report it until I saw the same object in a different state Monday morning, July 24 in Colorado. I will make a separate report for that sighting.

Benton Harbor, MI
This took place around 11 PM. The sky was clear with stars. We were sitting in our hot tub, looking up into the sky. Was perfectly sober. Just relaxing, 6 very large cylinder like objects, dark in color compared to the sky that was clear that night. They moved very quickly, but silently with no lights 6 information in a V-shaped. It was very silent, but very fast.. We live about 2 miles from Lake Michigan. The UFO was heading west from the size and the distance. I would say it’s banded around 100 feet across or span and about 30 to 40 feet thickness from front to back. And the speed that it was going comparable to the Jets that we see flyover at night from O’Hare airport or coming from that direction I had to be going way faster than any of our planes that we have in the sky again it was silent, very fast cylinder, six cylinder separate, or perhaps were joined in someway, but in a \/,shape

I noticed the object decending from the clouds as I slowed down for a red light. The object resembled an oval shapped hockeypuck, and was standing on its end and rotating about once every 3-5 seconds. It appeared to be light in color on the opposite faces and dark around the rim. The object decended from the cloud and moved towards the left and appeared to come to a complete stop, while continuing to rotate. It then slowly accended back into the cloud coverage. This was not a balloon. It had clearly defined edges and was very stable in its rotation, unlike a balloon which wobbles in the wind. This object was not drifting, it was definately under powered control.
June 5, 2023 · 2:43 PM · DIAMOND
Gainesville, VA
Watched the diamond object float or hover, tracking toward the East (toward Washington DC). Object was redirected back to the South East towards Manassas, VA. Object flashed or reflected the sun randomly (but very bright like a camera flash). I was able to see it through my polarized glasses, but could not capture the object on film using a Samsung Ultra do to the random pattern. A flight at about 30-60,000 feet flew over approximately 10 minutes later on the exit path of the object. A military helicopter flew toward Dulles airport in the same area from the West (e.g., I-81 corridor) a few minutes after witnessing the plane. I could not validate the flight path of the plane or military helicopter. [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Possible]

I was headed to the store then I was driving on 28th Avenue about 2 streets over from my house then I seen a bunch of birds acting strangely. So I looked up there was 2-alumunus colored square shaped flying objects with a very strange sound but not loud. Then I taken a video footage of the 3 UFOs and went back to record some more then they were gone in nanoseconds. I went home to upload on my computer then screen shotted a couple of the objects seemed to look like they changed into disk shaped objects. I called and made a report to the Fairbanks Police Department.

Rio Rancho, NM
Cigar shaped object glinted in the sun as if it were chromed. The glint is what caught my eye. It came from the south and veered to the SW. I don't know how far away it was so I do not know the size. It was fast and it was unlike any aircraft I have ever seen. I heard a noise that was very similar to a hot air balloon inflator, but also very different. We hear balloons all day every day. It got my german shepherd's attention because he hates balloons, but the dog just seemed puzzled as it zipped away.

Oro Valley, AZ
Red colored cylinder traveling east to west about 2000' above ground, maybe up to 3000'. No wings, not tail stabilizer, no sound, it was silent. Traveled a bit slow but steady, maybe about 80 or so mph, like the speed of a cessna 172. Completely red in color, nothing sticking out from the body of the cylinder, it was just a clean, red, cylinder. The time was approximately 8:40 am to 8:50 am. I was in my back yard feeding and watering wild birds. The red cylinder was distinct with no surrounding haze or aura. It was flying slowly east to west and with no sound or any engine noise. No other aircraft were around at that time. It seemed to be about the size of an automoble, maybe 20' or so long and red in color.

Issaquah, WA
The movement and duration of a shooting star seen just above the horizon on a full moon night as we drove from Issaquah to Duvall, WA It descended rapidly, angled from right to left and then vanished (like a falling star). It was much larger than a star and had a rainbow of colors (to my recollection, red, yellow, green, orange). The driver, Nancy, and I, were gobsmacked. It took our breath away.

I was just looking at the video I took also. This thing is weird. You can see it in waaaay better on my phone. I didn't notice until today that it actuall turned and as flat. Please don't disregard this. I have pictures of an object that started out as a white octagon shape and then changed its shape. I cannot describe it where it makes since. I took pictures on both days. June 6, 2023 and June 9, 2023 at night. There were no stars in the sky and that’s what initially got my attention. The octagon shape changed to a roundish shape and then there was a white hue around it and then a colorful hue. I have showed people and they think they see a face but I do not. There is a definite triangle shape. Anyway, I just need someone to look at the pictures and give me their opinion. This really happened. I'm sending more pictures in an additional email. Atmospheric effects can cause a bright evening star like Venus to exhibit the characteristics described. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Probable]

I was on an Alaska Airlines flight from Miami to Seattle this past Sunday, June 4. The flight was scheduled to land at 9:25 but we landed a little early. I usually sit in seat "A" (left side of the plane) so I can take pictures of the mountains (Rainier etc.) to the south before landing in Seattle. I am not sure whether I was in Eastern Oregon or Washington but I started looking out the window for mountains in the distance. We were flying just above a layer of clouds and there were several breaks in the clouds. There was a layer of clouds below us and that's when I saw this gray circular-looking orb just above a lower layer of clouds traveling eastward (Opposite direction of Seattle). I've seen planes go the other way before and they never appear to fly in a straight line. This thing flew in a straight line and was going at least as fast as a commercial airplane. I followed it with my eyes until I couldn't see it anymore. I was close to the front of the plane in 6A. Once out of view, I looked back in the plane but I didn't hear anyone react. Maybe no one else saw it?

My girlfriend and I were sitting out on the balcony. There are a lot of airplanes since we live near Dulles Airport. We have seen dozens of airplanes flying by. This one had a shiny orb following it. I took a video.

Willis, TX
We were traveling west on the road leading into our neighborhood. We were about to cross the bridge over the lake when I looked up and saw ominous clouds forming a thunderstorm and approaching rapidly. I looked up toward the sky and saw an egg-shaped craft, approximately 60 to 70 feet long, traveling at what I estimated 300 mph and 300 feet elevation. A soft silvery-white cloud surrounded the object, which appeared opaque as though you could see through it. It left a cloud trail that whisked away quickly. It was traveling from due north to due south and disappeared rapidly. I saw it very clearly and very precisely.
