Anahiem, CA
I do not have a word processor. Looked up at sky viewed a teardrop shape bright red object that was slow moving and very close. This object was dropping what looked like shooting star material from its bottom. It came close dropped 4 times material, then it started heading east ascending higher and quickly vanished from sight. I'm still wondering exactly what it could be, to slow moving to be a falling star or meteor the movement itself was not that of a fireball plane helicopter or drone. One things for sure it was beautiful. I can only hope others also viewed it and NASA can describe exactly what it is or was. Thank you (location Ball road between Knott ave and Western)

It was totally clear out with no cloud cover, and the object seemed to disappear into nothingness.

Las Vegas, NV
AT ABOUT 4:45 PM, 6/5/17, I SAW A BRIGHT LIGHT IN THE SKY, HEADING TOWARD SUNRISE MT. (ALSO KNOWN AS FRENCHMAN MT.). I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO HIT THE MT.. IT STOPPED AND TURNED TO THE NORTH (IT AS HEADING EAST). WHERE I SAW THE TEARDROP SHAPE. IT MOVED WHAT SEEMED LIKE A FEW FEET, THEN TURNED AGAIN AND HEADED SOUTH DOWN THE MT. THIS WAS AT ABOUT A 12 DEGREE ANGLE. IT PROCEDED FOR ABOUT 15 SEC. THEN JUST DISAPPEARED.

North Las Vegas, NV
On May 15, 2017, at 216pm PST (partly cloudy) on Las Vegas Blvd, in North Las Vegas. I have Sony a350 DSLR, 1/2000, iso 400, f8 shooting specs. I was shooting the Nellis AFB airplanes coming in for a landing. I was looking North as some airplanes come straight down the Vegas Blvd to do 2 180 degree turns and land at Nellis, there was about 22 planes in this group. At about plane 18, I kept looking North down the Blvd and spotted a light coming behind and out of the clouds. There were a few cloud banks in the area and I began to shoot, even if I couldn't see it, I still kept shooting, I managed to get 10 shots off in 10 or 15 seconds. I recorded a image on 9 out 10. The UFO is to far away,about 2 miles to say what it was. It was like a bright light, but when I blew it up, it looked like a smokey Goldfish Cracker. I blew it up to about 200 percent and it looked like a cloud of circular smoke. I probably don't have the best equipment to say what it was. And with! so few pixels, well we don't have enough solid evidence other than it descending path, which can be calculated by time to say, yes this was a UFO. But the object started up at 1000 ft and pulled a 45 degree descent. And then just and disappeared. As the last frame shows it covered some distance really quickly that's why I was determined to just shoot blindly. My feelings,, about the object, well I never believed that i have a chance to see a UFO. I knew it wasn't a airplane. The object just vanished after loosing cloud cover. It was over in 10 seconds or so. I looked at my time and it never clicked over 2:16 pm, while taking these photos. Enjoy we are

Memphis, TN
There was no sound and my first thought was that it was perhaps some kind of magnesium flare or something similar, although it seemed to hover in the sky, instead of down in an arc like one might expect. It was visible to us for a minute, maybe two, then moved up and away, out of view, to the northeast. The shape was difficult to discern, due to the distance, but it looked almost like an egg or teardrop.

Phoenix, AZ
Looking to th east at about 2:00, I saw what I thought were to large birds moving south to north one behind the other. They were to high to be birds (pterodactyls came to mind), so I went inside to get my binoculars. What I saw was a cone shape but with a corkscrew row of lights that spun in a clockwise fashion as to propel the craft. They were dark except for the lights.

New York City (upper West Side), NY
At around 14:30 I saw a silver object that looked like a balloon. It floated West, across Amsterdam Avenue and about 65th Street in NYC. It floated in the West/North West direction, out towards the Hudson River. At around 18:31 pm I was walking South on Riverside Drive, at around 71st Street, when I noticed a group of these same “balloons” floating West towards the Hudson River. They looked like balloons, but they also looked like UFOs. They were coming from a completely different direction and time than the one I had previously seen. There were approximately four UFOs in this small group. As they ascended, they all moved at the same speed towards the sun, making it hard to see them. One of the objects didn’t float in formation. It proceeded to move swiftly, heading North, before banking and heading South, now above the Hudson River. It did this a few times, changing direction smoothly. At the same time, it seemed to move in the general direction of the other objects. If they were a lot closer, I imagine they would have been relatively large balloons. The objects were silver, and, if they WERE aircraft, I imagine they were small…smaller than a car. If they were balloons, they were large balloons. The part that REALLY drew my attention was the time difference between the two sightings. There is no way that the one balloon I saw, descended to the earth, found three more balloons like it, then proceeded to ascend back on its course, four hours after the first sighting. Maybe there was an event in NYC, where a lot of silver balloons were let off…it was strange. I have some video of the two events. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he sounded to us to be quite eloquent and serious-minded. We suspect that he is a highly reliable witness. PD

Woodsville, NH
I was driving south on route 10, just outside of the village of Woodsville, in the town of Haverhill, New Hampshire at 2205 on Friday, April 15 of this year. I noted a green teardrop shaped light, with an orange glow around it, traveling due west over the Grafton County Complex then over the Connecticut River into Vermont. The light seemed to be a couple of hundred feet up in the air, and was moving in a straight line. The shape of the light did not change shape, there was no noise, and the body of the light had a brilliant green color like that of a Granny Smith apple. The orange color outlining this green light was thin and the hue of embers you would see in your fireplace. I couldn't make out any solid object as it seemed to be pure light. The light did not affect the electrical system of my car, nor did I feel any different while witnessing it.

Right before it disappeared it headed north in unrealistic supersonic speed. When it disappeared into the horizon above in the high atmosphere several points flashed. Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

While driving I saw a stationary light, like an upside down teardrop in the western sky. I have seen the same light on two other nights this past week. Sighting of Venus?? PD

Broomfield, CO
I was on my way home from the grocery store at about 1:15pm on 25 February, 2017, heading south on Kohl St. in Broomfield, CO. As I stopped at the intersection of W. 11th, looking southward, I saw a strange object moving above the roof tops near the intersection of Kohl St. and W. 10th Avenue, a block away. The object was a solid and somewhat irregularly shaped teardrop that was horizontal and heading at an even level and speed towards the east. It was a gunmetal gray color. The plumper part of the object was to the east and the sharper point to the west. It was smooth, but on the east end, the shape had a slightly squared edge on the top rim. The bottom of it seemed flat. I wondered if it were a drone, but it had no protruding parts, such as propellers or wings. I am estimating that this object was about two feet long and two and a half feet at the widest point. There was no traffic, so I turned east on W. 11th and kept looking at it as it arced northeast above the houses on the next street. I turned down that street, but it flew beyond the street and disappeared from view. The wind was pretty strong from the northwest at that time. If it had been debris, I believe it would have tumbled and pirouetted in the sky, taking on irregular shapes. Instead, it remained in the same shape, and it moved in a completely even trajectory, at a steady altitude, and at a steady pace. I do not believe this was debris caught in the wind. I believe it was a craft moving at a steady velocity, with purpose, towards the east/northeast. If it made any sound, I did not hear it because I was in the car and the windows were rolled up completely.

Baghdad (Iraq), Iraq
Tuesday, 14th of February 2017 Around 16:15 PM, my two young sons witnessed and captured a video of a possible UFOs. It was 1 major teardrop shaped object with multiple spherical shining objects circling around it. The objects were traveling in a relatively slow speed from southwest to northeast above Baghdad. The sighting duration was about 15-20 minutes in total, but they managed to capture only the last 10 seconds before they disappear all of a sudden. The Objects were emitting red lights with no sounds heard. I’ll be thankful for your feedback. Video provided by witness shows a small, anomalous object, photographed against the clear blue sky. PD

Trinity, NC
2 pairs of bright white vertical teardrops, each pair separated but in sync. Small pulsating red, green, blue and yellow lights. Seemed to be stationary in NE sky about 45 degrees above horizon. Traveled in sync with stars and crossed the sky in a three hour period. Managed to take some low-quality photos.

The object appeared to be elongated tear drop shape and seemed, to be shooting across the sky from the east to west. Lights went from white to blue and yellow in color and seemed to have disappeared in thin air.

Melbourne (Australia), YT · Australia
Driving into Rosebud, vic, from Rye. In daylight. Teardrop object spotted from car window - appeared to be falling from the sky at first; but when I did a u-turn to stop and take a picture it seemed to have disappeared further away from view, then come back again. Almost smokey in appearance but tubular and remained in its shape - unlike smoke. The tip that was at the bottom was rounded and you could see the blue sky between the teardrop shape.

Colby (south of), WI
My mother was driving my teenage brother and I (23 years old) coming back from Marshfield, Wisconsin, just south of Colby, I was lazily gazing out the front passenger side window, when I spotted a vibrantly bright emerald colored teardrop shaped light with a golden/orange sparking trail about 350ft to 400ft up and about 250 to 300 yards away from the road we were driving on. At first I thought it was a shooting star and i shouted for my little brother in the back seat to look because my mother was driving, but it moved too slowly for the first few seconds to be a shooting star and then in the blink of an eye (a split second) it shot away from us (rough estimate) 65 degree angle and disappeared. The strangest thing I noticed was that the emerald green light looked different than a light you normally would see at night. It had no glare or beams of light coming off it like a street light at night normally would. It was a solid green teardrop shaped ball of light abo! ut the size of a bowling ball that was extremely bright and yet had no light emanating from it. The trail looked to be 4 1/2ft to 6ft long from our location with a very slight downward curve. It was solid white in the center with golden/orange sparks surrounding the center. The trail was thicker at the end and only slightly narrower towards the emerald light. The sparks seemed to be falling off the trail. We have amended the time above, to reflect a nighttime sighting.

Austin, TX
I was on a daily morning walk before work and walking eastbound on Ashdale Drive, heading to Burnet Road. I happened to see a light brown, ceramic-looking craft floating above tree tops, heading slowly southbound over Burnet Road. Craft was completely silent, with no lights. It was visible in the dark morning only due to abundant street lighting along Burnet Road. Shape appeared to be elongated teardrop-shaped with very thin drooping "winglets" on sides. No vertical features visible on craft. No windows apparent. Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Norman, OK
Observed the object while stopping at the intersection of highway 77 and cedar lane. It seemed to have been above Highway 9 and 24th Avenue, towards the east, possibly farther north. It was much larger than a shooting star, teardrop shaped, glowing bright yellow with green around the edges. It seemed to have appeared in the middle of the sky suddenly, then fell towards the ground. I lost sight of it behind the trees and the neighborhood. There was just one. I always assumed that there is intelligent life outside of our solar system, but I have never witnessed a UFO.

Clarkson, KY
I was walking out of front door and the door was shimming I could feel vibration and heard a loud humming noise .. I looked up and there was something hovering above me .. only about 300 ft high .. it was twice as wide as any airplane I have ever seen but, it was huge and it had a rounded nose tip and shaped down like a tear drop.. there was 5 or 6 roles of lights on the bottem in the shape of an arrow one role of red and next white...etc. each of the roles was as wide as the next . It moved slowly across the sky.. it was very dark outside because i live close to woods no street lights.. the lights under the craft was so bight that it made it easy to outline the craft...I thought I had lost my mind and was afraid to tell anyone.. then a man that lives 3 miles from my house 5 days later stopped in and said I seen something really crazy the other night and when he said that I said red and white lights.. His eyes got big and said you seen it too.. He told me th! at another neihbor seen it as well and tried to take pictures with his old flip phone but they were blurry. there was two smaller crafts flying higher, one to each side of the larger craft an in front.
