Alexandria, IN
It was a very clear day. I was working in the garden. I looked up and noticed a bright, shiny paramecium shape object streaking across the sky from N to S across the airspace West of town. I tried to view it as a bird but it was higher than bird flight. It appears to have no wings but may have had some thin structures like pipes, at front and back of the flat cylinder like shape. I tried to view it as a plane at high altitude but it was about 10 times faster than a high plane. I took several steps out from the shade of a tree and the object came to an immediate and complete stop for about 1 second. From an extremely high rate of speed South to a complete stop. It then changed direction 120 degrees back and up. Within about 3 seconds it was out of sight completely. It appeared to go nearly straight upward, away from the earth. The movements of this object were not normal and definitely would fit a UFO report. It reminded me of the military jet object that met the unexplained or impossible movements causing it to be judged a legit UFO report. Nothing other happened and with quite a bit of looking up, I saw nothing of it or anything other.

Roselle, IL
I was pointing out some constellation formations appearing on the horizon...it was getting dark enough to see only the major constellations like the big dipper and the North star...my eye caught some movement and I looked up, towards the northern sky saw an object that my brain asked...(and which I said aloud...which is weird, because I have grown up around Ohare Airport and all of the planes and I know they blink red and white lights in the night) "Is that an airplane?!" Followed by "Is that an airplane on fire!?!" As I realized its motion looked like a distant plane travelling through the sky…headed to the West, but it looked like it was on fire and burning. So the two other people with me looked and saw it for a minute or more and then it disappeared behind our locust tree in the front yard, but I got up and and walked over to where I could catch it still on its trajectory and it wasn't there. We assume that it had burnt out…or disappeared…but we weren't in a position to see if it just slowly burnt out and fizzled or if it just vanished into thin air.

Fernandina beach, FL
While doing security I looked up and saw a matte black cylinder high up in the sky, looked like a reflection on the glass so I rolled down the window and still saw it “roll” across the sky fast.

Woodstock, NY
Was waiting for fire works that night, but they were’nt scheduled till next month in Woodstock. Looked like a large bus, no wings, very bright lights. Little lower than a plane would be in the sky. Sighting stayed in the same spot, no sounds, for 1 hr. Then moved over to the right and dropped a little lower for another 1/2 hour before I went to sleep.

Vine Grove, KY
Just before dark, I was setting off smoke bomb fireworks with my children. My daughter spotted the craft first asking kind of plane it was. We live right off of Fort Knox near the tank ranges and air field. I looked up, spotted what she saw and had no answer. My son then said, “it’s probably a ufo.” At that point I got my phone out and recorded 2 short video clips. I reviewed the clips and now I’m here. Filing this report.

Saranac Lake, NY
Object spotted traveling from S to N. The video was taken from Eagle Island Campsite on Saranac lake, facing SE. The object passed us at 8:42 PM 04/03/2022 and appeared to be passing over the town of Saranac Lake at 8:43 PM, 04/03/2022 The object looked like a cylinder with rounded ends and no wings. Primarily white, with a dark spot on the side. At first I thought the dark part of the side of the object that can be seen in the video was a wing but as it moved away you could see that there was no wings protruding from the side of the object, or the top of the object. This object did not make any noise, it did not have any flashing lights that would be seen on any legal aircraft or civilian drone, nor did the object have any visible exhaust. We were able to both hear and see planes that were flying farther and higher than the object was that evening, but this object went by without a sound.

I was up on a rooftop doing my morning exercises and looked up and saw this object way above the planes that were flying over at 40000' and that was moving fairly quickly from the West East direction and then then as it approached the sun it disappeared

Donegal, PA
I was driving eastbound on PA Turnpike ( I 70-76 ) at around 12:30 PM. The sky was clear blue and in the northeast sky I noticed an airplane with a very short contrail flying south. About 1000 ft. above the airplane on the same flight path I saw a bright, white, shiny cylinder shaped object flying above the airplane. The object was clearly not the same type of flying machine, much smaller but much brighter with a halo type effect surrounding it. Unfortunately, it was a very short sighting due to winding road through the mountains and since I was traveling at 75 mph on a busy interstate, I was not able to get a photo.

Columbia, MO
Driving home, east on W. Nifong, turning left, north, on Forum Blvd. when a flash of light caught my eye, saw a cylinder (fuselage, no wings) gliding east over a residential area. I would say it was about 500 feet to my northeast, (Google maps) traveling east. It was approximately 60 degrees over horizon, so rather low. Unfortunately, because of traffic I could not pull over. I continued to look for object as I drove and cleared trees but did not see it again. It appeared bright white, not silver, would measure about half an inch at if held at arms length. Sky was clear, no clouds. Sun was bright.

Gay, GA
It was around 3:30 AM, outside my home, on June 27, 2022. The sky was partly cloudy. This was an extremely fast moving firey orange large cylinder shaped object. Flying at relatively low altitude. It moved it absolutely straight line at a speed far greater then a plane. There was absolutely no sound. It was gone in a blink of eye. Absolutely amazing. What could it have been?

Rancho Bernardo, CA
My son and I just finished swimming in the pool in Rancho Bernardo California. We dried off and we’re laying in the lounge chairs and notice two cylinders in the sky fairly close to each other and appeared to be circling each other. We videotaped for a few minutes a plane passed over them. We then noticed a third cylinder arrived and caught up to the other two then made a perfect triangle in the sky. They broke formation and went out of site shortly after that.

Wheat Ridge, CO
Around one o'clock today I noticed a cylindrical object in the sky that was moving to slowly and far too high in the sky to be an airplane. At first I thought this object was "twinkling" because the surface seemed to be a mylar type of material and it was reflecting the sun but after I watched it for a moment it established a clear pattern of blinking on and off, a slow one. It slowly moved across the sky until it was directly above me and it stopped for about five minutes, directly where the sun would be at noon. I was on the phone with my friend so I hung up to take a video. After unsuccessfully trying to get a video, it was just too small, I called my downstairs neighbor and she came up to see it for herself. (While I was trying to get video it had started moving and then stopped again when my neighbor came out to see it. It had moved further south and a little bit east of the noonish sun before it stopped again.) She observed it and was just as clueless as I was as to what it was. We chatted for a bit and the next time I looked up it had moved on. This thing never stopped binking but the blinking did slow down. When it moved it stayed at a very slow pace, far too slow to be a plan. When it stopped, it stopped, it did not move at all from that spot. It was shiny, the color of a mylar balloon. I've seen weather ballons, this was not it. One more thing, my mom worked for NASA and DARPA, I am not easily fooled, this was strange.

Beaver Dam, WI
Around 1-2 pm, I saw a tick-tack-shaped object to the north of town heading south towards the lake. The object disappeared after a few minutes over the lake. After a few seconds i noticed another object that looked exactly the same appear in the same area the first one appeared and then continued the same route as the first then disappeared. After that disappeared a third object appeared and did the same route and disappeared.

Joliet, IL
We were sitting in my backyard enjoying dinner. When I looked up and noticed an object moving in the clear blue summer sky. It was shiny silver, no sound like an airplane, no tail or wings. Moving at a rate of speed for you to notice. It was strange.

They flew for a second and burned out. Thr electric jolt that went through our house after was the weirdest part. We both experienced it. I also have a video of it
