Pedricktown, NJ

Bright light green sphere about the size of a beach ball, traveled at a very high speed flying over top of me about 40 feet in a beeline formation.

I saw a strange plane or craft flying low over trees on the outer cape in the town of Eastham. I proceeded to Cape Cod Bay to check on the direction of craft and if it was a plane. The craft flew out of my sight but I noticed many other lights (crafts? Orbs ? ) flying over the tip on Race Point in Province Town. This event lasted for a long while. I filmed the lights from a tripod with my DSLR for a couple minutes. Amazing light show. They dipped and flew across Cape Cod Bay at very low altitudes just skimming the water. The footage is from a distance but the crafts are clearly visible as it was a very clear night. Very Strange.

New Berlin, WI

I went out on my deck to have a smoke and like always was looking at the so called stars in the area in space near the constellation shaped like a sideways triangle there was a very small star like light moving slowly suddenly it had gotten so big and bright I had to squint my eyes it was the brightest light I have ever seen in 59 years it still was moving then slowly faded out after 5 seconds and was gone.

Redlands, CA

HUGE perfect ball shaped, dull metallic gray, with a white light that appeared to wrap all the way around it- hovering fairly close to the earth considering the size of it. This thing was enormous! I was getting on the 10 Freeway East at California Avenue. As soon as I made a right onto the on-ramp I was amazed. It was just right there hovering. At first I thought it was the moon and was in awe of how BIG it was. But the white light ring around it made it look like a lunar eclipse. Once I merged on to the freeway safely I tried to get a better look. Had to rub my eyes to make sure I was really seeing what I thought it was. It didn’t appear to be moving. Just hovering. After I was sure it was not an eclipse of the moon I thought to myself that maybe it was a blimp....but knew it absolutely was not- waaay too BIG, wrong shape (this was like a perfect ball). Because it was just hovering I became excited that I was going to be able to “catch up” to it for a better look. So I glanced to my left as I got over to the fast lane of the freeway. When I looked back again ahead of me it wasn’t gone but within a fraction of a second it wasn’t there anymore. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I have never seen anything move that fast.... especially something that massive in size. It was just gone.....poof! I so wish I had been able to see it up closer. I am still in awe of what I saw. It was amazing. It was beautiful. Unfortunately there was nobody in my truck with me to share the experience :( I couldn’t even talk to other drivers because we were on the freeway at an interchange. And when I got to where I was going (San Manuel Casino) I couldn’t find a soul who witnessed what was just up in our sky. Yes it was so big I am certain if any of those gamblers had been outside they could have seen it all the way from the casino. When I got there I told a few people (that I didn’t even know’) what I saw....a couple of them looked at me like I was crazy.....one guy was interested and believed me....he was jealous. I would be, too. It was an amazing experience. PS--I didn’t hear ANY sound of an engine or motor. And when it disappeared it was very fast but VERY smooth movements.

Tres Pinos, CA

I saw what I thought a satellite in a polar orbit very bright, traveled 30 degrees and instantly turned 90 to the east and into the earth shadow.

Tabor City, NC

A month ago, I saw a glowing orange orb moving really quickly across the sky. It then maneuvered in a way that I’ve never seen, disappearing behind a tree-line. I’m able to quickly identify things in the sky. I didn’t know what this was. I also didn’t report this original event.   My wife and one of my children have witnessed the same or similar object in the sky, on separate occasions. Last night, around 9pm, I noticed two orange lights in the distance. I originally thought they might be planets, because they weren’t moving and looked different than the stars. I kept watching. One of the objects moved very quickly from its stationary position and was quickly out of sight. There was a tree-line near me that obstructed my ability to continue tracking it. The second object began to move slowly, in a direction similar to the first and was quickly out of sight. I thought that the event was very strange. I went into the house and sat down. 5-10 minutes after I sat down, the house was buzzed by a low flying, fast moving, jet. It was followed by a second low flying jet. Based on the sound, I could tell that the jets were moving towards where the orange lights had been. This could have been a coincidence, but was also strange. I spent 9 years in the military, stationed on an airbase. I’m very familiar with aircraft in the sky.

Indian Beach, NC

My family and I saw orangish red balls of light hovering over the ocean off the coast of Topsail Beach, NC. It started out with a couple of these balls of light, but then they multiplied. New balls of light would appear and others would disappear into the darkness. This occurred for 10-15 minutes.

Surf City, NC

Singular orange/red orb moved across ocean sky. Came to complete stop and then split into two orbs. Stayed suspended without moving for 5 minutes. The orbs then split into two more, total of four. The first two disappeared. Two minutes later another one split out of the second two. Five minutes later they all faded.

Toronto (Canada), ON · Canada

There was a lot of cloud cover when we first saw them. Three of the five or six did different formations: sometimes lining up horizontally, and sometimes vertically. The other two or three skirted around the outside of them, drifting in and out of sight. One witness said it was probably floodlights from a stadium, but didn’t remain to watch their movement. Another two suggested it was God. But two of us remained on the veranda, looking west and watching an incredible light show. I had anticipated that when the clouds moved, that the orbs would become brighter, but as the clouds drifted, it was almost as if the orbs were shy, and followed the clouds in a southerly direction. We watched them for easily more than an hour.

Hope, NM

Initially spotted one orangish in glow, round in shape, light in the sky. What caught my eye was how close it was to another light. Thought it was two planes too close together but noticed there was no blinking of the lights and that the two orbs sat directly horizontal of each other. The second orb zoomed down and to the left of the main orb and hovered for about 4 seconds. Then 3 more orbs dispersed from the main orb like a fighter plane does when dispelling decoy flares. The 3 orbs stopped in alignment with the second orb and they created the outline of a oval like shape in the sky. All orbs were orange in color, unmoving, and unblinking. After about 5 seconds, ALL orbs retreated back to the main orb. I looked away for half a second, and it was gone. Super spooky.

Stopped at a traffic light. Noticed a cloudy grayish figure in the sky. Recorded a perfect circular figure moving around with no pattern.

Wilmington, IL

The power in house flickered on and off several times followed by a surge complete darkness then the lights went back on. The rest of the neighbors didn't get power back and the whole block was in complete darkness. Due to the power failure several neigh ors came to my house to power up there phones/tablets.total 7 of us. My son recieved a text from NASA that ISSC was pacing I mb orbit an maybe be seen around 8:30 p.m. we ran outside to check it out and were able to see it after mistaking a few planes first. After it was over we hung outside for awhile as it was a clear sky we were star gazing when we saw two light either two separate crafts or one big one as they followed perfectly in line to each other. They moved quickly across sky (not as fast as metro or comet but not as slow as a plane or jet). The front light grew extremely bright for a short time then back to it's original brightness and carried on across the sky for another 30 to 40 seconds then completely disappeared both lights. Because it was in the sky I have nothing to measure it to so not sure how far up or how big the object was accurately so I will not guess. This isn't the first odd light in the sky out here for the past three night we have seen what I have been telling my child they are just satellites reflecting the sun from space. I know it's something more but what I don't know. I am in no way stating Aliens just stating I couldn't identify what it was and its not being the norm as we often sky gaze. I tried to video tape but didn't get what I was hoping for.

New York, NY

I saw two very bright white flashing lights in the south East sky. The object was moving very slowly. A thin cloud moves in front of the lights. The lights could still be seen through the clouds. Eventually the clouds were too thick for the light to pass through. I waited and got some video of it on my iPhone. I thought I could walk closer to work and film more but could not locate it again.

Enon, OH

I observed a very bright white sphere in atmosphere. It traveled SW to NE across sky. No flashing lights indicative of commercial or military aircraft. It was too low and too big for satellite. Not a meterorite or shooting star. No sound at all. No contrail. I watched it until it was farcenough in atmosphere tonlose sight of it. The distance it traveled across the sky tells me that it was very fast.

My sister pointed out that something was moving in the sky, and I figured I’d check it out. My sister focused on one of them, and I focused on both and my older sister also focused on it. I basically saw it with the light pollution; otherwise, I would have not even seen it. Two sphere objects going at similar speeds just drifting my sis and relatives all saw it. It wasn’t a plane because I know the lights they carry.

Port Gamble, WA

On 09/21/2019 on or about 23:30 I was coming home and after parking the truck I walked to the house when I looked up and saw red orb high in the sky. The orb hovered for about 30 seconds then shot up at a high rate of speed and disappeared. Weather 64 degrees clear sky.

Edisto Island, SC

Light was observed on Edisto Island off the coast of SC. I was traveling south to north and was roughly100-200 ft in the air. It would travel north then circle out to the west and then reappear further south and perform the same pattern, slowly and methodically getting further from view. It seemed to have only one forward facing light as when I made its turn, the light faded away.

Folsom, PA

We were sitting in our yard as we frequently do on weekends. We like to watch for satellites, the ISS, etc., and have seen these plenty of times and are very familiar with them. At 22:17 (10:17 PM ET) we saw this orange light appear from the NW sky and it moved slowly across the sky to the NE and then disappeared as it reached a certain point in the distance, much like a satellite does. However, unlike a satellite or the ISS, this object was much larger, approx. the size of a dime held at arm's length and it was orange like fire, but was not a fireball. It was bigger than any airplane lights and there were no flashing lights. It was just a solid orange light and it was silent. It took around two minutes to move across the sky.

Lakewood, CA

I live 1 mile south of the 91 freeway, was looking in the southern sky at how unusually bright Orion's belt constellation and surrounding stars were then, then bright non blinking light crafts flew away together in unison, in same star positions leaving the real constellation behind in the sky, and they traveled south in the sky until we could no longer see them. Right after a military helicopter approaching from the west, heading east flew over and also an F-15 flew very high over our house for at least an hour, looking for something.

Roswell, NM

DRIVING ON HWY TO ROSWELL, NM WE NOTICED SUPER BRIGHT WHITE LIGHTS. TOLD PARTNER TO PULL OVER AS I HAD NEVER SEEN ANY LIGHT THAT BRIGHT. JUMPED OUT AND IMMEDIATELY STARTED VIDEOING. ONE ORB WAS BLUE BUT APPEARED GREEN TO NAKED EYE, THE OTHER WAS BRIGHT WHITE. THE ORBS MOVED IN MANY DIRECTIONS AND APPEARD TO BE COMMUNICATING TO EACH OTHER. WE HAVE BOTH STILL AND VIDEO SHOTS ONE WITH IPHONE THE OTHER WITH NIKON DSLR.

Barely visible white dot in the sky, total blue sky’s today. The dot moved east then quickly speed up and made sharp turns etc like no aircraft could possibly do . It went out of sight within minutes.
