Dundee, OR
I was facing South in my backyard when I saw two round red lights moving from South to North, I watched them for about five minutes. They were less than 30 degrees above the horizon. There was no moon and these lights were brighter and larger than any star in the sky or a passing airplane. They appeared to be coming towards us because they were getting brighter in red color. The first occurrence was two red lights moving together, one in the lower right position and the other in the upper left flying fairly close to each other. After getting brighter, the lower right one dimmed quickly and then turned white before disappearing. About two minutes later the upper left one did the same thing. This was repeated in the second occurrence. The second occurrence, happened about five minutes after the first occurrence completely disappeared. They followed the exact same pattern. There was no pattern to the pulsing of the red lights. We spoke with the source of the report, and found him to be quite eloquent and sober-minded. We suspect that he is an excellent, and reliable, witness. PD

This object looked like a star at first, however, it bobs and weaves from left to right, then up and down and sometimes does small circles. Its go me totally baffled. From my home which is located at 43˚6'12"N 71˚6'36"W and looking 150˚ about 30˚ upward, there is the strange irregular moving 'star'.

Three red stationary orbs. Couldn’t tell if connected to craft. I’d for several minutes until two airplanes and two helicopters came to check it out, then slowly drifted up and away. Insane.

I was taking scene pics of clouds to paint and kept seeing a weird ball moving all over in odd directions and took shutter pics as it's moving. On January 10th 2019 then again in March 19th 2019. Then a few more with 3 helicopters following it south from salem. During these times we also had earthquakes at the the coast the helicopters heading South from location of pic. I have more of these pics different times dates. I have a few clear ones I find extremely odd that made me reach out to this.

Leaving Bryan, Tx about 4 in the morning I saw this bright light appearing as if hanging from the moon. It never left the location from the moon.

Lothian, MD
An explosion that shook houses strongly enough to have things fall from shelves was accompanied by a huge fireball near the sight lines possibly north east of the zip location. Residents of approximately 25 homes experienced this and all homeowners have looked for news report explanations but cannot find any mention of it. Some in the community are fire and police, and their sources do not report anything in their agencies. The entire community was deeply shaken by the explosion and fireball, most certainly by the resolute denial of our collective experience of 25 or so entire families. Posting here just in case.

As I kept telling myself, it's just airplanes. The further I walked to my car they seemed to disappear as if they were fading away into cloud cover or overcast. While walking under the lighting it almost looked as if there was overcast. As I got away from the lighting more. I noticed there wasn't any cloud cover at all. One by one they vanished. When there were about 3 left, I snapped a photo. And seconds later they were gone. As I assessed when I got to my car. The lights weren't flashing, nor were they white or blue, as an airplane would be. I was walking with my co workers they seemed it was a bit odd but they had split up as we walked further through the parking lot. I reached out on social media to see if anyone else saw this and it doesn't seem anyone did. As it being new years with people being drunk and fireworks going off... Could possibly be why.

Right after midnight 3 people witnessed a huge clear triangular craft over a field near the golf course. Too low to be a plane. It had lights in each corner that rotated with what seemed like chrome in color. It went straight up extremely fast. No noise.

Three Orange Reddish colored round shapes traveling North with No Sound or trail Left behind. They Where Fast And Steady Pace. They Where Very Close Together. But When Watching Them You Would See Three Separate Round Shapes. The Sky was Clear Stars Bright. I Checked On Line To See If Anyone Else Saw It. Only Came Across A NBC2 Story From From 2014 Same Day, New years. Those Witlessness Described The Same Exact Thing I saw. Weird.

I was sitting outside with my mother and girlfriend on New Year’s Eve night. My mom kept saying my name and I was ignoring her because I thought she was trying to joke or tell me a story of something when I was a kid. After the fourth time of her calling me, I said, what ma! She said look in the sky its a UFO. My eyes shot straight to where she was pointing. Just over our head 4 egg shape but more oval with Scot almost see through edges and sides flew over the top of us. Quiet, soft, kinda like it was exposed to my eyes by it capturing the moon lite on the craft. They had a soft dim glow to each one. Tinted light green soft greenish yellow. They flew soft steady, quiet, nothing like I have ever seen. I was in the marine cops I know military craft I know noises of propulsion. This was quiet, like an ice skater gliding on a rink of ice. The most amazing awe mind shock I’ve ever witnessed. Amazing moment. I hope others come forward with this. It was so close just wow.

Within a few minutes after the New Year (2019) we were on our porch watching fireworks, when we spotted a strange red light moving slowly between us and the mountains, which is only a few miles away. We ran to the other end of the porch and saw it still drifting across the field and move on down the valley. We then moved to the back deck to see if we could see it further away, when suddenly two more objects (lights) looking exactly like the first light, came into view. They just drifted on down the valley following the first light and then winked out. Then three more red lights, looking like the other three, seemed to swoop into view and drifted across toward the field. One just kept going and winked out, but the fifth one seemed to turn and get brighter and then winked out. The last light never made it as far as the others and got dimmer and dimmer and went out. The lights were not blinking or making any sound, so we knew they weren't airplanes or he! licopters. They all followed the same flight path and the same altitude. The shape of the lights was unusual. They were slightly elongated vertically. There seemed to be something in front of the lights, but it was not discernible. We tried to be objective and wondered if we were seeing those flying light lanterns or some kind of new fireworks. They were certainly strange and we had no idea what they were. A few nights later, we were listening to Coast to Coast and heard Peter Davenport's report and one of them sounded similar to ours coming from Boise, ID. on the same night. The report was of 6 red lights. Our mountain range borders Idaho, and as the crow flies, we're in line from Boise. Hmmm Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I saw fiery orange lights no sound flying at low altitude no noise they moved south then flanked back but they all flanked at the same area as they flew higher I took pictures and video I tried to close up to see if they were lanterns but there was no flickering I have seen them before, but can’t identify them.

On New Years Eve at around 23:00hrs., we witness what appeared to be a green flashing light hovering in the sky it flashed on and off several times before it appeared to skip to another location quickly in the sky. Watched as it zig zagged around then float off to another location over a park are well lit and noticed the same flashing green lights blinking off and on then rise a few feet up into the sky in seconds then quickly back down then up again in seconds then float off and turn off then nothing

When I originally first saw the light/craft, it went across the sky very smooth, upon further inspection I thought it was a helicopter until I realised there was no noise and only one singular light, I then defaulted to a drone explaination but the radio interference as well as it using from what my hypothesis is a mixture of sound and magnetism was able to float and fly seamless in the atmosphere, when it vacated the premises, it made a large “zap” sound as if from a cliche movie.

Spring, TX
Location: Spring, TX along Grand Parkway, 5 miles east of interstate 45 Date: 31 December 2018 Time: 22:00hrs Observation: 6 orange/ red lights over course of approximately 10-15 minutes Orange/ red lights moving in a general SW to NE direction. Difficult to judge distance, but appeared to move from below low level clouds to a higher elevation. First saw only one light, which moved from approximately 50 degrees of arc to roughly 110 degrees relative to my position before disappearing. Light changed both intensity and color over approximately 1-2 minutes of observation. Intensity would fade, then return to original brightness. The light at first appeared to be an aircraft in the holding pattern of IAH. Approach vector matched typical inbound commercial aircraft. After initial observation, it became clear that this was not a commercial airliner, due to a single light source. Meaning there were no approach or running lights, nor were there any strobes. No typical turbofan engine sound could be heard (no discernible noise at all related to the light) Approach speed and angle were consistent with powered flight on a steady course. After 2-3 minutes a second light appeared, following the same trajectory as the first. I observed both of these until they appeared to either dissipate or disappear into the clouds. Shortly after the first two lights disappeared, a second pair could be observed above the tree line, however these were on a different trajectory in their flight path. The first set travelled from a 12 o’clock position to a 9 o’clock position, from my perspective as the observer. The second followed a narrower flight path from 12 to 1 o’clock position. A third pair of lights followed a 12 to 3 o’clock path. Other observers present suggested this could have been a Chinese lantern or a drone. Drone was not plausible due to the number, apparent altitude, lack of sound, and lack of running lights. Chinese lanterns could not have moved at the apparent speed and divergent trajectories. I took several photos of the lights and attempted a video, these were not very detailed. However, the lights matched a video recording posted on YouTube that was filmed in South Carolina during December 24th. The audio description also matches what I observed. https://youtu.be/WQsSORRSzSE I’m filing this report after doing some research and seeing a pattern of similar observations during the same period of time.

My family and I observed 2 separate formations of red-orange "aircraft" flying what appeared to be east-northeast tract. The formations exhibited a continuous red-orange color. I'm former military and civilian and military aircraft typically have flashing lights while flying at night. The first formation were 3 craft that traveled the same east-northeast tract for approximately 5 minutes at different speeds before disappearing in the clouds. The second formation were also 3 craft flying the same tract at different speeds and also disappeared in the clouds. All 6 craft did not produce any noise. We originally thought the craft were drones; however, drones can not travel that distance without losing signal. These lights were not fireworks as firework lights do not travel that distance and then gain additional altitude after their report.

To explain it better, imagine a bright orange medicine ball moving NNE at 25 mph about 150 feet high. Conditions were semi-clear with no wind at all. Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

After leaving a local restaurant my wife and I saw a orange glowing object that speed across the sky. No noise and it was probable 1,000 feet up in the air. I operate a drone and I know what a drone would look like in the sky. At first we though it was a Chinese lantern, but it was much larger than that.

Seemingly low-flying, and incandescent, flying orb came from NW towards SE in very deliberate linear fashion at 9:25 p as I stood upon my roof, coincidentally taking in New Year's eve fireworks. Appeared seemingly as a large firework rocket gone astray but just continued constant incandescence and just continued to the south in satellite fashion--just oranger and lower.

Brookfield, IL
We saw a red ball of light flying from the northwest heading southeast. As it got closer, the color didn’t change, and it didn’t make any noise. It seemed to stop and change direction slightly and continue on. At first we thought it was an aircraft on fire. It didn’t look like any helicopter or plane as many have passed overhead. We do live near an airport, but it did not head in that direction.

Kalaloch Campground, WA
While camping at Kalaloch Campground, we noticed 3 VERY bright lights in the ocean horizon. They remained there most of the night. We regularly camp here and have never seen these light or any ships in the past. Locals at Kalaloch lodge said they have never seen this before.
