San Luis Obispo, CA
I was watching a video outside and my dog was barking and I could hear a helicopter close and when I looked up I saw what I thought was irregular aircraft light however it was flashing like it was made of fire it was moving across the sky slowly and then it let out a small red flashing light that slowly followed behind it and then stopped in the air the original fire-lite proceeded to what appears to be leaving the atmosphere out into space then eventually the red light stop flashing and disappeared all the while a closed helicopter was hovering with no lights I never saw the helicopter but the second original flashing light is dim out of sight there were several series of rumbles the helicopter with no lights hovered around for another 30 seconds and then slowly left in the opposite direction does the original light had left that in the sphere in. this is the second time that I've seen a glowing flashing light leaves behind red flashing lights and then leave! it's as if something's being dropped off.

Nipomo, CA
It was traveling diagonally and seemed to be moving slowly. I started to record a video on my phone as it maintained its trajectory. I thought it must be a drone, so I stopped recording. As soon as I did, it then split into 3 lights that were lined up horizontally for a second. There was the original large orangish color light, a small blue light and a white blinking light. The blue light then disappeared and the blinking light followed further behind the larger light at the same trajectory. I started to record again after it split but not for too long. I got freaked out and ran home! I also noticed a noise that is hard to describe. It was almost like a low pitched hum. ((ADDENDUM FROM A VISITOR TO OUR WEBSITE)) Peter, What the witness observed in Nipomo, CA, was an unarmed Minuteman III missile launched from VAFB. It was launched at 11:01 pm. The flashing light seen following was the tumbling first stage. A friend took this picture which shows the main missile and the booster behind. This picture was taken from Shell Beach, CA, and would have been visible from San Luis Obispo, CA, as well. ((END ADDENDUM))

Aptos, CA
MY wife (a skeptic) and I were walking the dog a little after 10pm and I was looking up at the stars, as I always do, and I saw a small light in the sky. I called out the UFO, pointing at it, to my wife. I always do this with what is obviously planes which amuses her, and I actually did think this was a plane at first. As usual, I asked her if she saw any blinking (planes have blinking lights), and she watched it ready to tell me she sees it blinking. This took longer than usual and we both stopped walking. She said “there, it blinked. Wait, no it just got dimmer… I don’t like the way it’s moving.”. This was as the light started moving faster, faster, in my opinion, then most planes move across the sky. In all this time there was no blinking lights, though the light did get brighter and dimmer. I noticed some barely seen substance, or objects, falling from the light as it was moving, It almost looked like dust, but faintly glowing just as it dropped and then stopped glowing. I told my wife that I thought that was a real one. And I flashed my flash light at it, not that I thought my light would even reach that far, but immediately after I flashed my light at it, the UFO blinked and then started to fade out as it seemed to rise in the sky. Looking to the right, I saw that an actual airplane was flying in the general direction the light seemed to be. As the plane got closer the light faded completely and did not reappear. My wife still doesn’t want to admit it was an actual UFO, but she has no explanation for this one. - It's not an option below, but I'd prefer to be emailed than called. We assume the date of the sighting was February 05th, and have amended the original date. We will confirm the date with the witness, and repost the report. PD

I also believe I witnessed possibly the same sighting on 1-24-19 at 6:45 P.M from the Golden Gate Bridge toll Plaza as someone reported from Oakland. A huge yellow light was seen near the SF downtown skyline at exactly 6:45 to 6;50 P.M. No one else at the bus stop or tourists or anyone else seemed to be noticing this huge hovering light and a second object appeared briefly and then they just winked out like someone turning off a light switch.

Lee, MA
Was driving east on the mass pike in western ma. Leaving Lee Ma driving to Westfield exit. We saw bright white light stationary in the sky the whole ride while on the pike. When I got home around 8 pm or a few min after that I went outside to feed my horses. As soon as I stepped out on my deck, a large craft was flying low over my home. It was square or diamond shaped...it was dark, but had lights underneath, made a noise but not too loud, no wings, no tail. Flew slow and low heading north. I live 15 min from an air force base...so maybe a military craft?? Was it the bright light I saw on ride home? I don't know. But I've never seen anything like either of these. Wish I captured it on video.

Philipsburg, PA
Went out on the back porch at around 6:30 pm, and looked up to a clear sky. I saw what looked to be a satellite going over and then a huge flash from it. I think it could have been an explosion with an orange color of light. At first i thought it was a reflection from the sun, but it was too big for that at that far up. The satellite continued across the sky and out of sight. Possible flare from an Iridium satellite? PD

Saw 2 anomalies in the sky on my way home from work. Almost looked like 2 objects falling from the sky or at least the "cloud" of them. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

My dog wanted to go outside. He never goes out at this time of the morning. I let him out in the back yard. He usually doesn’t take long but he didn’t come back, so I walked outside and saw 4 round lights spinning in a circular motion over a house in our neighborhood. I watched them spin for a while, then went back to sit down. 15 minutes later I went back out and they were still ther spinning. I then went back in. I went back out at 4am and they were not there anymore. Possibly advertising lights?? PD

Peoria, AZ
Two of us were walking through our neighborhood, when we saw two fireballs shooting up in the air slowly. In under 20 seconds, one first dimmed to a speck, and then the second one, ten seconds later. Then we continued to watch both specks split apart and travel over our heads until it was completely behind our heads. They traveled from the above the horizon over out heads to what appeared nearly 100-120 degree angle. The distance was amazing as well as the quickness the bright orange circular light died out, then continued to travel.

Roseville, CA
On the above indicated date and time, I was walking my dog in our neighborhood. I looked above the tree lines in the East and observed what I first thought was a grouping of birds flying North to South. There were approx. 50-60 objects. The objects were not flying in formation and were spread out high and low, some were swirling about the others. Many of the objects in the lead would actually reverse direction and join those trailing behind. One object was observed diving at a very high right of speed, stopping, making a 180 degree turn upwards and disappearing in a cloud above it. Not knowing the size of the objects it was difficult for me to judge their distance. I would make a guess of anywhere between a half mile and three quarters mile in distance from my location. My eyesight is very good and I was able to see that the objects did not flap wings as a bird would. Secondly, the sun would strike some of the objects and I could see that they appeared to be silver in color. I had my I-Phone 8 with me and began taking a video. I took 4 videos in total. I continued watching and observed that the objects continued in a southerly direction and were almost directly above downtown Roseville. The objects continued their swirling gyrations and after a couple of minutes were lost to sight. We suspect that the objects are birds, perhaps seagulls, seen "running" ahead of a developing storm. The witness is going to consult a photoanalyst to see what his impression of the video might be. PD

Small light, comes every evening/early morning same times 2-4am. Sometimes closer, sometimes farther. Moves side to side or up and down VERY fast. Than suddenly stops. Been hoping for days. We stay up to check. Even in clouds it’s there. Tried to video but wasn’t showing up, will try again from outside on a nice evening. We suspect a star or planet. PD

Mays Landing, NJ
I was driving, going about 40mph, when I noticed a green, triangular shaped object falling from the sky. I noticed it while looking out the left side of my windshield. It took approximately 6 seconds to go from where I could see it in the sky to behind buildings and trees. The point of the triangle was facing downward and the top part of the triangle was broken up in pieces. The green was bright emerald and seemed to be emitting from the triangle itself.

A series of red lights of dots pass over our heads between 7:18-7:21 pm. Over 20 consecutive red dots of light went by very slow and low. There was no erratic movement.

Robinson, PA
I went to the store to buy something, and on the way I spotted a strange looking star in the sky. I noticed that it was much brighter than the other stars and had very dim blue and red flashing lights on the sides. It was stationary. I bought my item from the store and when I went back outside it was in the same spot. I recorded it on my phone, noting that if it was a star it was the only one appearing on my phone's camera. I showed it to my mother and brother, who didn't really think much of it.

Two very large reddish orange fireballs and a number of white spheres. Strange sounds like an organ. First thought they were jets, but that wasn't that case at all.
