Saw an unusual object possibly some kind of space craft. Very high in the night sky. Intermittent flashing red and white lights. One time saw a flash of white light above and below craft looked like a photo flash. If it was a space craft it made the most unusual moves. Sometimes it would remain still and others it would abruptly turn right, go into circles, dart to the left, and back up. All of these moves were done at what appeared to be a high rate of speed. It seemed like the craft was searching for something like a bee going from flower to flower searching for nectar. Acting very erratic. Has anyone seen this same object?

I was opening the garage door at work & spotted a light in the sky that grew in intensity. I've seen shooting stars many times before, so I thought that it would be one. However, it took off really quick & the orb was glowing green, while the tail & the sky around it flashed through different colors rapidly. Not to mention that it was MUCH bigger than a shooting star. It was almost similar to a flare being shot off, but it was green (not red), flew in a fast & straight line, and it had a bunch of colors streaming from it. There is a video online of a Green Fireball flying over Poland. That is very similar to what I saw in almost every detail (even how the head detached from the tail) except for the one I saw had the tail that kept changing colors. I wasn't going to report this, but I saw that there were other reports of a (the?) fireball flying around that same day. I want to include that in 1999, me & my girlfriend witnessed a triangle UFO hovering very close to where we were standing in a parking lot. DAYS after that spotting, I noticed a strange triangle pattern tattooed into my hand that matched right up to other triangle tattoos that I've seen on other UFO witnesses. I'm saying all this because I HAVE NOT YET looked over my body this time, but I will in order to see if there is anything abnormal.

My boyfriend and I honestly felt crazy,, and were not going to post anything, until we saw a startlingly similar sighting in our town, same area *the beach,* at nearly identical time, August 19th, around 12:50 am and on. We walked down to the beach and sat by the water, we are sitting now and see to our right (about 150 yards away) a white blinking light close to the ground, running uncomfortably fast towards us. We had our dog, a Doberman, and assumed maybe it was a puppy with a blinking collar for night time. Regardless, it freaked me out a bit an we ran back to our beach access (approximately 0.3 of a mile). When we felt we were at the safety of our access and close to our home, we turned around and saw not just one blinking light, but now two. Sprinting from the shore all the way to the top of the beach, back and forth at insane speed. The blinking lights are going into the water-about 5 yards, and seem to have no trouble sprinting back and forth without stopping. At this point, we realized their speed and how the second light came out of nowhere, it could not be dogs. At this point, I was very uneasy and told my boyfriend I would like to go home. He insisted on watching and figuring it out. When I told him again I was leaving, the two blinking lights shut off. After 3-5 seconds of darkness, the lights come back on but now there are more, maybe 5 separate sources of these blinking lights, running quickly from the shore to the top of the beach. We turn around to go home and DIRECTLY in front of us, 100 yards AT MOST, and 3 stories high there is a bright orange/yellow LARGE light (looked like it could have been a plane) until it began rushing towards us and would change speed-when we turned around it was racing towards us but when we saw it, immediately slowed. It was directly over us at a point and there was a white light in the middle of it reflecting down over us. We looked where it originally seemed to be speeding from, and there WAS a small smoke trail. We started screaming and ran back to the street. We tried understanding what it was, but couldn't. There was no start or end to the object-it was glowing, it had a glowing aura about it.It made no noise whatsoever. It was right above us and we hard nothing. Neither of us were intoxicated and we consistently walk the beach at night as we live so close. We have never seen anything like this. When we were on the street, we looked back at the apartment building and could see the object hovering over the beach access where we left. Literally just hovering. As we were running home, it would go behind the building so we couldn't see it, but peek back out the same side. It did this 2-3 times and disappeared, not coming back out from the apartment building again. I'm not sure if these are unrelated experiences, but at the time it felt the blinking lights were distraction to turn around and have this terrifying, unidentified object so close to us.... IF anyone has any input, please let us know. Neither of us can sleep at night.

I was out walking my dogs and saw what I first thought was a shooting star. But, I quickly noticed it wasn’t, because it was moving too slow. For a moment I saw a slight streak of light behind it (similar to a streak of light like a shooting star ). It at first looked like it was coming directly towards me. It was, at first, traveling in a southern direction. Then seemed to take an eastern direction. The moon was behind me. It was much, much smaller than the moon. IT WAS COMPLETELY SILENT. It probably was going about the speed a small airplane cruising (not very fast). It was a small ball, a firey looking light. I watched it cruise by in the sky for about 1 ½ minutes when it suddenly took off in a eastern direction. Now I could best describe it a shooting star leaving our atmosphere… not entering it. It left rising in altitude and streaked off to the east. I was gone in less than a second. Never making a noise. ****I HAVE ALREADY REPORTED THIS SIGHTING ***** THIS IS MORE DETAILED** I CAPTURED FOOTAGE ON MY IPHONE.

I was on the back porch of my house, three houses from the beach. Being a pilot, I looked up at the sky and saw a circular object, which at first I thought was a meteor because of its bright light and tail dragging behind. I took my phone from my pocket and started to film. The object moved from northeast to northwest and descended, initially it was traveling at very high velocity and seemed to decelerate extremely fast. Kept my cell phone camera on it as long as I could, until it disapeared. There were no strobe lights or anti-collision lights on it. It was bright red, and turned to yellowish, as it advanced. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he seemed to us to be quite eloquent and sober-minded. He describes himself as an aircraft owner, a commercial pilot and a flight instructor. PD

Lake Wales, FL
object came towards us from the north across the west side of Lake Kissimee. We were located in Tiger Creek, half way between Lake Kissimee and Tiger Lake. It was an orange ball of fire, leaving a smoke trail behind it. Came to a stop between an 1/8 to a 1/4 mile from us approx. 500 ft high. As it stayed stationary, it changed to a white. About a minute later, started moving slowly to the east. as it moved slowly the light dimmed and went out. we thought at first it was a helicopter crash landing until it stop at that close of a distance and you could not here it at all. it was almost dead silent all around us. Just reporting what we could not identify at all.

We were watching the International Space Station pass by. Then, after it flew out of sight, we turned toward the north and saw what looked like a red ball of fire rising straight up from the horizon. It stopped rising about halfway in the sky and began to hover. Then a second red ball of fire rose from the horizon just to the right of the first light. It stopped and hovered at the exact same height as the first. They both remained hovering...moving slightly every once in awhile. Then, the first ball appeared to begin moving away from us and disappeared. The second red ball then did the same. No sound was heard. (We could see aircraft approaching from the northeast on a normal pattern for our area.).

Port Saint Lucie, FL
Very low flying craft approx 20 ft wide with a bright light on the end of the two wings. Looked like a triangle with the point being at the rear. Circled in a wide circle over my house and court 5 times. Sounded like a small moped. It flew by very low and fast from the left and circled the court and then down the street and we could still hear it then approx 10 mins later it passed again a little more over the house and down the court, approx 10-15 mins later it passed again but on the other side of the house. The next circle was over the house again but a little slower. The next time was only a couple minutes later, and it was a couple houses down, the final time it passed at the end of the street, 4 houses down. We could still hear it but didn't see it again.

Orange Park, FL
While on my way to retrieve my laundry, I looked up at the sky to admire the stars. For a split second, a small ball of light raced a crossed the sky. It left a trail of light behind it that disappeared, just as fast. It seemed closer to the ground than a plane would be. It was white and circular in shape, brighter than the stars and moon in the sky. Witness does not indicate a date of the sighting, so we have assigned one arbitrarily. Witness elects to remain anonymous, and provides no contact information, so we are unable to confirm the date. PD

After observing various objects in the sky approximately 15 minutes after my girlfriend noticed the bright star, I looked up and found the star, and proceeded to tell her I was going to try and locate it in the telescope. We observed the bright spherical "star" for another 10 seconds before I turned to move the telescope. We both took our eyes off of it for no more than 5 seconds and as I looked up the star was gone! It was not a shooting star (wouldn't have stayed there for 15 minutes), not a satellite (once again wouldn't be up there that long in the same exact spot), what does th! at leave? The event was one of the craziest things I've ever witnessed.

Miami (Bal Harbor), FL
I was driving today from Collins Avenue to the west (north Miami direction), looking for an autoparts shop because today I got a “maintance required” light up in my control panel which I found very strange because everything in the car seems to be fine, oils levels, coolant level, even battery levels, everything was working but nevertheless the light was on. So I cross the bridges over the water, and I am looking at this very impressive summer sunsent, with very strange and massive clouds around it, and suddenly I see something out of place. (time around 7:10/7:11 pm) I see something shining in between the clouds (in the direction of the sunset), but with a shape that does not appear to be natural at all. I could see the exhaust glowing on the left side of what appear to be a huge ufo, an under glowing too, and over it what appear to be like a city over it, picture when you see the top of a navy carrier, that’s what it look like on the top of the huge ufo. I was driving and over a bridge so I couldn’t stop to see it without risking to be part of a car accident. I pull out my phone, while driving, and tried to take a picture, but I could not get it. I did got the time which is enough giving the facts. Now, before I get call crazy or whatever, I want to state clearly that the whole structure was not visible, the only parts visible where the ones I describe before, the exhaust on the left side and under and the shining of the sun on the top structure. If this is actually a ufo, it was extremely big and most probably was inside the atmosphere because I guess the reflection effect is not the same if you are in space. But I don’t know, I am not a weather expert. I want to add, today was a very strange day weather wise. It was full of clouds that looked like columns, it wasn’t raining but the sky was full of electrical activity. I am completely sure that if this was an UFO there is no way, no way, the radars would miss it, it was just to enormous. I would love to know if there were any radar “anomalies” today over Miami.

While out watching for meteors, around 4 am facing east, a faint grey/smoky chevron slowly and silently, tracked across the sky from east towest in a straight path. Holding my hand up at arm's length, the object was about the size of my thumb. There were no lights emanating from this object.

Ever since that day I've been hearing the same noises at the same times (minus the light and voices) but can't explain them, and our pets haven't been the same either. I have no idea what it is and all I have as evidence is a recording I took of the hovering sound, the bizarre thing is it didn't pick up the hovering but instead a noise I didn't even hear the whole time recording. Also, whenever I try to wake anyone up to come listen there is no trace of the strange sounds. I can't sleep because of all of this and it's been driving me crazy. Help.

Driving down the highway, there was a big bright circular light, it would dim and get really bright again. Then it would break off into smaller lights and speed up into the sky. I watched them for 15 minutes until they all disappeared.

At midnight I was taking out our dog and noticed a light in the sky that was rapidly changing colors. I called my Daughter out to view. We used a telescope to get a better look. It was oval in shape and hovered to our west before slowly moving westward out of site.

I was outside on the phone when I saw a large flickering red light moving west, then a second light, moving slowly, then a third. As they move closer, the light lowered, and one by one, they went straight up and out of sight. I managed to get my wife out to witness this, as well as a neighbor. I also videoed with my cell phone. This was something I will never forget. I'm glad I got to finally witness something like this for real.
