Boise, ID
Between 9:00 and 10:00 pm Satuday, April 15, 2017, I was exiting a parking lot in SW Boise shopping center and saw a large multi-colored (redish white yellow) illuminated object hovering above the city. Within a couple seconds the object ascended vertically until it became the size of pin-head and disappeared from sight. I noticed a second identical object ascendingo from lower altitude above the city as I pulled back in the parking lot and took photos with my cellphone. It ascended and disappeared like the first one. Unfortunately, two bright parking lot lights are shown in the photos. After examining one of the photos, two other unilluminated objects appear to be accompanying the illuminated object.

At approx. 10:20 PM Good Friday, April 14, 2017 Middle Aged Female walking dog alone No Alcohol/Drug use/History Walking on street across from parks/schools towards Highway 101 in Central Coast of California, Santa Maria, relatively dark two street lights ½ mile distance to highway Walking on sidewalk on tree lined side of street, felt raindrop Looked up and noticed clear starry sky, then looked down Then looked up noticing in peripheral left side vision something white/flash/moving Noticed 6-7 “suction cup” white/translucent circles in a pyramid shape on the underside of A wholly black triangular UFO No lights emitting anywhere on the vehicle; top/bottom or sides or out of the white /translucent “suction cups” that appeared to be “landing gear”; their “whiteness” was how I could see the outline of the triangle around the circles It was completely quiet, no “hum” or whir at all and it was a very quiet area with no cars moving, i.e. so that if it WAS emitting sound, I would be able to hear (trained musician) It was NOT that high up in the sky! It appeared to be on a perfect keel trajectory South east to North west as if it was observing the ground below! It was not near a horizon and did not appear to be a “large” ship at all, but a small moveabout I held my sight on the thing moving straight ahead above from me out a quarter mile from me and then straight up in the sky, prob a third of a mile up, if that, held my sight on it for 5 to 8 solid seconds We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she sounded to us to be quite serious-minded. We suspect she is an excellent witness. PD

I turned onto 7th Ave & stopped before the stop sign in front of the playground & stuck my head out the window to see a huge black triangle with a bright light on each corner directly above me. It was extremely low, barely above the trees & a house. It made absolutely no noise & was the size of a large plane. I turned my car off to listen & heard nothing. I looked around hoping someone else was seeing this thing but nobody was around. I could see cars still going by on Haines Road but they didn't see it. After 5 minutes, it began to slowly float toward Green Spring apartments & out of sight. I thought to myself, nobody would believe me & preceded to go to the gym, not once thinking anymore about it. I don't remember how much time passed. I didn't tell my fiancee when I got home. I had "forgotten" it. In fact, I didn't remember it happening until days later & I told him then. He laughed it off but I know what I saw hovering above me. I find it convenient that my memory vanished right afterward. Maybe I was abducted, I don't know. When it came back to me, I couldn't believe I didn't say something about it right away! When it did come back, it was a OMG! Did I tell you what I saw? Maybe they were abducting someone in the house they were over? I'm posting this now because I still think about it & wanted to share with other people without being laughed at. My husband still can't answer me when I ask well what was it then? No plane hovers & even if they did, it would make noise. It wasn't a balloon & it was too big for a drone.

Saw what seemed like an airplain very very low in the sky, until I got closer and saw that the three bright lights were just a few feet above a tall pine tree on the road. Originally posted with a time of 10:27 a.m., but corrected here to 10:27 p.m.. PD

Driving down hwy 10 heading south from Brainard, MN, I noticed 5 very bright lights just over some tree tops and didn't see it again for another 10 min then I seen it very clearly, maybe 200' off the ground going slightly faster than me at 65 mph. It went away and I took my next available exit where I seen it coming straight towards me. I got out of my vehicle to watch it fly over my head. It was triangle almost boomerang shaped with a roughly 20-30' wingspan from my point of view, with 5 lights on the front like headlights on a car but very bright and big it was to dark to tell what the tail end looked like when it flew over me. The sound of it sound like someone going shhhhhhhhhhh quietly. I'm not saying this thing was from outer space; I just couldn't identify this thing from anything I've ever seen. Maybe military?

Newport News, VA
April 5th, 2017, around 5:10 AM, I was outside our shop at Newport News shipyard, taking a break and talking with a few coworkers, when I noticed something in the sky right above my head, about 250-350 feet. I had just enough time to be able to point and say, "What is that?" and my other two coworkers were able to catch a glimpse of it before it disappeared behind a building. I ran to the other side of the building, which only took me about 10 seconds to get there, to see if I could see it, and it had disappeared. It was heading northeast just west of Langley Air Force Base. It was a clear night. We didn’t hear any sounds before or after spotting the aircraft. It was a solid black triangle (all sides were the same size, a perfect acute angle) the size of a football field with a light in each corner of the craft. The lights were pulsating very fast almost like an energy surge. The best way to describe the lights would be comparable to halo lights, but soft white in color. The lights seemed to be what powered the craft. None of us could identify it to anything we've seen before like a drone, or military plane. I grew up around the air force base and I've seen a lot of night flight drills, and have never seen anything like this before.

At first I thought it was a pigeon, gliding, but it didn't flap its wing, plus it was goin way to fast. Finally, I realized what I was looking at and chills were sent up my spine at that moment. I tried keeping my eyes on it but it disappeared as soon as it was over downtown Fresno.

Sitting in my bedroom and hearing the sound of a helicopter that was very loud, I got up to look out of my window, and saw the the helicopter hovering over the expressway in the S.E.sky. As I was about to sit down, out the corner of my eye, I noticed very high in the S.W. sky a triangular-shape object with five white lights on each side, and one big light in the center. To make sure I wasn't seeing things, I took out my binoculars, and noticed a smaller triangular shape object next to the big one with flashing white lights. After watching it for fifteen minutes it disappeared.

Fairly large triangle shaped craft of some sort hovering in place for around ten minutes about a kilometer from my house. It only had two white lights in the back and one red light at the front, which was pointed in my direction. I pulled my phone from my pocket and aimed the camera at it and while it was a pretty clear night, it would not come up on my camera. Needless to say it's left me a little spooked because I just sort of humored the idea before this experience. It was also completely silent. Also, earlier, my vehicle's battery was acting a little funny. Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I was walking with my girlfriend from the Bavarian Inn to Tiffany's in the downtown area. My girlfriend said look at the sky, referring to the clear skies and the stars, when we saw the triangular shape fly about 1000 feet overhead and disappear. It almost looked as though it vanished into the clouds, but there was no clouds. There was no sound. I wrote down my description of the object and then asked my girl to describe it. She said the same thing: triangular object with five lights; one in the center and two evenly distributed lights on each side leading to the tail.

I was driving home Saturday night (10:45 p.m.) April 1, 2017, on a quiet back road and while I drove up a hill close to my home I saw two bright white lights sitting in the sky almost like stadium lights. As I drove closer to the lights and closer to my home I saw that there was actually 3 white lights and the lights formed the shape of a triangle. It is hard to estimate the size of the craft and the height of it but this craft was lower than any other plane that I've seen in my life. I stopped in the middle of the road to try and take a picture, at this point I realize the craft is moving and is moving pretty quickly southeast. I quickly take one picture that didn't turn out well and drove quickly to my home about 200 yards away, I race inside to gather the attention of my family and by the time I got my family and I out on the deck the craft had just passed over the tree line. The night sky was clear there were very little clouds in the sky so the visibility was clear the moon was in a waxing crescent phase so it wasn't giving off much light. The 3 white lights of the craft were extremely bright, brighter than any star or plane I've seen.

I only saw the lights, not much bigger than the stars. It blacked out what was behind it. The lights were white in color, only on the outside edge of the craft. It was a perfect shaped triangle. It flew from the ocean N/W toward land. No sound. Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Red and blinking object remains steady in the sky; unlike stars that appear stationary. I thought it might be a plane or helicopter, but it is not moving, just appears to have legs that are the same color as the object that is blinking—it appears to be transmitting. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and found her to be quite serious minded and sincere. However, we suspect that she may have been observinc a twinkling star. We encouraged her to look in the same area of the sky, at the same time of night. PD

I was home with my mother and my daughter, everything was fine, until my mother and I went outside to take the dog out and heard something in the woods. I live in a very wooded area but it's right off of a main highway. We both heard something that sounded like 2-3 deer running but in the area that the sound came from has a very large fenced area so I don't see how this is possible.... Afterwards we both just thought that we must had misjudged the position of the sound and laughed it off. Well my front porch has more light then the back so being that we don't smoke in the house and after hearing what we both heard we had gone to the front porch to have a smoke. We both had sat down on the front porch and we love looking at the stars, and we both had seen the same thing... To the left of the tree line there was a very bright 3 sided shape in the sky??? It was bright enough that I had gotten up and turned the front porch light off so we could see it better. A few minutes passed and the object then started to move very slowly, we both had thought that this was just our eyes playing tricks on us, but then it started to get brighter and moved in a way the NO plane I have ever seen moved!!!!. We both continued to watch this object in the sky for over 30 minutes. I actually got my phone out to record the thing and it wasn't there!!!! At this time I'm starting to feel stupid or crazy and them my mother grabs my hand and says" look up" I looked up and I can not even began to explain the fear!!!! There were 3 of the same size objects over the front of my house!!!! Now they were not close enough to us that I felt like we were under attack but they were still there, and the original object was still not in sight. At this point I'm getting ready to put my mother and my daughter in the car and go anywhere but here!!!!! My mother stopped me from going in the house and points to the spot were the first object had appeared, and there it was!!!! Now there are 4 objects in the sky and I can believe what I'm seeing, we both watched the sky for over 2-3 hours and the objects got brighter and moved and then would just disappear, but the first object was the only one that moved in such a way that I still can't believe!!!! I have watched the x files loved the show, but this is the craziest thing I have ever seen!!!! I went outside tonight just to look and there is nothing in the sky were I had seen the first object and it just doesn't make sense!!!! I don't what to sound crazy but damn!!!!! I hope that someone else out there has seen this, too.

I saw this aircraft out my skylight window. It was flying low, shaped like a pyramid or triangle. I was looking at the bottom of the aircraft which was outlined in orange and white lights. I live on a flight pattern for Bangor International Airport which is 25 miles away. My immediate thoughts were it was a military fighter jet of some kind. But I did not see any green or red lights and there was no "jet" sound, even five minutes after it passed. So I am not sure what it was that I saw. A UFO or some sort of military jet.

I was looking over a barren field with my girlfriend, we both saw two triangular aircrafts with 3 blinking lights traveling in a very linear direction, Very soon after spotting the aircrafts, one split from the course and turned directly 180 degrees, flying the opposite way in which it had previously, whilst the second aircraft sat still. The aircraft in which turned around, had a light turn on so bright it was blinding, and continued to do so until it had flown down and out of sight, whilst it was flying it was moving in a very wobbly motion as if it was moving up and down very hastily. The second aircraft at this time, turned directly around aswell and flew toward the exact place the first aircraft had, except at extreme speeds and dissapeared quicly, but this second aircraft could be seen 15 minutes later around 11:43PM orbiting the area very far away, There were no further sightings of either aircraft.

We were driving south on Faulkenburg Blvd. towards home in Brandon at about 21:12 hours. I saw what I thought was the back view of a jumbo jet heading towards MacDill Air Force base on my right over a field. It got my attention because it was so large and seemed so close. There was a large white light in the center, with a small blue light on one side and another white light on the other side---as if on wing ends. There was a small red light on the belly of it and was blinking. However, as we got closer, we saw it definitely wasn’t moving. So then we thought it was a tower of some kind with weird lights, but there are no towers in that area and it definitely wasn’t that, because I saw this thing rotate mid-air rather than turn. It was definitely triangular/teardrop sort of shape---kind of both of those. It reminded me of the jets I saw in the sixties and seventies, only a little larger. I‘ve spent a good portion of my life in and around the military, so I‘ve seen a few. Its nose definitely pointed downwards briefly for about ten seconds or so, not really straight down, but at an angle and there was a long shaft off the nose of it. I saw a flash of dark metal as it shifted and the definite shape. We heard no noise whatsoever. It appeared to sit quietly in mid-air at about eight stories up, it didn‘t seem to be much above the tree line from our point of sight from the road. My daughter (29 years old) kept saying, “It’s so close. What IS that?!” My husband nearly drove off the road into the bushes because we’d gotten so excited, but he didn‘t see it because, well, he was driving. By the time he’d turned around, it had moved in the opposite direction going North/Northwest towards Tampa International, but it had gotten really far really fast without a sound. If I had to hazard a guess, I’d say it was some sort of stealth jet with an odd shape. However, I have never seen a craft quietly rotate mid-air like that or head off so fast ! without a sound. It just didn’t behave like a plane, blimp (wa! s way too fast for that), drone (was too large for that), or helicopter. And it sure was no weather balloon!
