Chicago, IL
I was on a commercial jet on final approach into Midway airport near Chicago. We were Over Lake Michigan at approximately 1k feet and I saw what I thought was a white bird Like a seagull flying above the water going in the opposite direction as the plane. As it got closer I noticed that it was not a bird but rather a white ball shaped object flying at a steady rate. There were no propellers or any type of exhaust or thrust producing mechanisms. It just moved under the plane at a steady rate. It’s difficult to determine an exact size because it was below me and appeared by be ~ 20 fee above the water. If I Were to guess I would say 2-3 ft. in diameter. I have never see a UFO in my life, I’m not sure what this was but it was very strange. No one else on the plane made a comment that I could hear.

Rio Rancho, NM
At about 10:30 p.m., we we're outside in my garage playing pool, and noticed the sound of a military helicopter, which isn't very abnormal. We went outside to check it out because it seemed particularly low and loud, and it was maybe half mile or so above the ground, Using radar or something in the nose we could see the green light. It was flying west to east at full speed as far as we could tell. Once it got almost directly overhead, maybe 20 degrees straight in front of us, we noticed a light orb turn on, orange in color, about 200 to 300 feet in front of the helicopter get bright and then take off in front of the helicopter. The orb was right on top of us again about a half mile up. It took off East and then veered Northeast. The helicopter sped up a little bit and went in pursuit. We did see the light go out it seemed like it wasn't a flare or a missile, because it didn't come from the helicopter it came from in front of the helicopter turned on and then ! had a burst of speed and then turned off. Not to mention there is desert/Mesa all around us why launch a missile over the suburbs? There's no way that's what we saw. Afterwards there was a squad of helicopters in the area which isn't very normal and we saw a drone as well.

Georgetown, IN
3 witnesses were bird watching and, through binoculars, happened to observe a round, dark object that was stationary in the evening sky. It remained at a lower altitude long enough for individual 1 to show individual 2 what he had seen. Individual 2 went to get individual 3 who had a telephoto camera. By the time individual 3 was able to get their camera, the object had ascended, directly upward, as observed by individual 1 who had continued to observe the object. At a very high altitude a gleam could be observed at the place the object had ascended to. It may have been a star or the object reflecting light from the setting sun. Unfortunately, due to the later altitude and the fact that individuals 1 and 2 did not have suitable cameras, no documentation took place.

Honolulu, HI
Spherical object. Phosphorescent green. Moving east to west at amazing speed. Object appeared to be extremely low. It passed over valley in less than 1 second (valley +/- .75 miles across). When directly overhead object appeared to be the size is a “normal” chewing gum ball. I was certain the object would collide into the valley ridge. It did not. The trajectory would have let the object pass over central Oahu but there were no reports of the object nor reports of falling/colliding objects. Estimating speed of object difficult but based upon a comparative analysis of commercial jet aircraft that take approximately the same vector daily, one could assume the UFO was traveling in excess of 3000 mph (perhaps significantly faster). No trailing sparks or fumes. No sound. Lasting impressions: 1. Appeared very low yet cleared all obstacles (path was linear). 2. The glowing green color was firm; no radiating haze. 3. Amazing no one else saw this albeit it’s speed was astronautical.

Fulton County, NY
Seen a really bright circle that was white in the middle, the it was yellow to orange to peach in color around the edges. I thought it was weird for the area then upon investigating the anomaly i was able to get a better look at the light. It was something I've never seen before. The object was still about 200 feet away. It was something I've never seen before.

Hurricane, UT
Red colored orb sitting high in sky in one spot, hovering. Then raised straight up, fast, to a very high altitude in the sky and turned bright blue. I compared height pictures from drones and this was well over the limit of a drone and at least 1,000 feet up, probably more. It was an overcast unusually foggy night for our area. It remained blue then dropped straight down at a controlled descent in which it turned red again once reaching the same altitude where I first saw it. It then continued to go down towards the ground until I could not see it. VERY BRIGHT. I have looked at pictures of Drones. They are not bright like this and I do not think could have raised elevation straight up and down so fast. I was sitting on my deck looking South toward's Molly's Nipple, a local landmark.

Rochester, WA
I was driving home from Centraila, Wa ,about 11:30pm. I got off I-5, and took exit 88 highway 12 west, toward Rochester, WA. I stopped at the 1st light, and saw what I thought, were weird light reflections in the clouds, they were pale yellow orbs bouncing all over the sky, my husband said they were most likely from a spot light. As we drove farther west I noticed that the orbs were just to the south of us about a mile or so and were brighter, and were closer together now traveling a little ahead and to the southwest of us, as we entered the town I realized this was one ship, and the lights were much brighter although still above the clouds, we made a left, and then turned back west on our street, I thought the object was still in town. Our road is curvy, and as I made the second curve,I almost wrecked the car! I caught sight of the craft just to the left of me and a bit ahead. I almost wrecked the car! we were the only ones on the road and the object was now just above the clouds, and you could see 6 white lights rotating in a pattern and 4 red lights that spun, then the white lights ran to the inside or center of the craft, made a star formation,then reversed direction and made a circle around the center star like light. This thing stayed in the cloud cover, never coming out into the bare sky, so I never saw the whole thing. As we took a left into our driveway and parked, the craft stopped and hovered, literally, 200 feet above us and 100 feet next to us, just above our pasture. the lights slowed down, and as we got of the car, it looked like it was coming down, by the way it made no noise, had no wind there was no engine noise at all! at this point we both decided it was best to get inside. We got the dogs out of the kennel, and took them in the house, they had been raising holy hell, and were franic! I decided to go out side and see if the craft had left, it was no longer at the front of the property and I did not see it at first. This made me feel better and I walked out to the street and headed west to see if I could see where it went, as I walked up the road I looked to the left and looked out at our pasture, and saw at least, 25 rays of light pointing up to the sky, they were like spotlights and were bouncing all over the place! the craft was now on the ground behind the barn so I could not see it, but I knew there were no lights out there like that! I took off for the house and told my husband we needed to leave, he agreed and we got the dogs loaded and took off down to the next cross street, we turned left to go to highway 12 and the craft went right over us heading due west, and then it just disappeared! I am still shaken up, and just a bit afraid they will come back. A car was parked at the corner of the cross street and moon road and he had a cell phone in his hand so someone got it on camera, The whole encounter lasted 30 mins,

Washington Township, MI
I've lived in this house for 12 years and my family and I have often noticed three lights floating in the sky above the lake we live on. We always thought they were a little strange because they don't move like planes and the lights aren't like planes either. They're a gold color and seemed to bob up and down before moving around some more and then disappearing.

Corona, CA
Driving back southbound on Haven Ave in Ontario, Ca, and entering the city of Eastvale, about 12 bright spheres were rising from behind the hills of Corona. they where in formation and then starting moving independently, some circling the larger spheres. They started pulsing as the lights went out far above the tree line and hills as they where traveling North. These where absolutely not Chinese lanterns, drones, helicopters, planes or anything familiar. When I finally pulled over and jumped out of my car at a park in Eastvale (McCune Park) Another spectator was filming the event as well.. I do have some film footage

Hillsboro/Purceville, VA
While travelling on VA Highway 9 toward Highway 7, my wife looked toward me to say something and noticed many orange glowing disk like objects flying slowly in formation of 3 to 4 at a time moving in a generally East/Southeast direction. We pulled over and took video footage from the intersection of Highway 9 and 611 (Purceville Road) while facing North. Video footage capture their appearance and movement. I also contacted the CBP Air Marine Operations Center in Riverside, CA, to report this highly unusual activity. I have been in law enforcement for 27 years and have never seen anything like this. I was shocked and astounded when I heard that they could not see the objects on radar.

I was out on my porch at 20:35pm, watching the sky in the direction of the moon. Suddenly I noticed a round object that was the size of a star which was traveling at high speeds in the South East direction. For approximately 18 seconds the object had a straight trajectory. Suddenly, within 2 seconds, it changed the direction towards the North at a higher speed and it disappeared. I believe that it wasn't an airplane, nor did it have any blinking lights.

AZ
On September 7th, 2019, on a commercial flight from DC to LA, my flight companion who is like a Mom to me, was taking a photo of the sunset. When she showed me the image I noticed a UAP/UFO on it and pointed it out to her. She then began taking more photos and a couple videos of it. On the video, you can see the object darting around in all directions in the sky. On the still photos, you can also see other larger craft-like objects. The objects look illuminated by the sun setting. The object flying around had an orange aura or veil encapsulating it. When the still photos are magnified it looks like a hamburger shape with space in between and a light on top. We were flying high up above the clouds and the info on the pictures and video showed that we were flying over Arizona. I have photos that I would like to upload and attach to this report.

Bayville, NY
I went out side on my mother deck to have a cigarette. I happened to look up facing southwest. There was a yellow, almost sun like color object, it was like an orb hovering about 2,000 feet. As soon as I noticed it started to move very erratically, bouncing up and down while moving towards the northwest at a slow rate. It started dropping what appeared a sparks or something that looked like liquid metal on fire, same color as the craft. The debris glowed for a few seconds and then went out. It then stopped and it took off in a straight line at an incredible speed, so fast that it appeared as a line towards the northwest.

i was walking to the east and i started to see orange orbs-spheres? i started to walk faster and they started to disappear one by one. fort mccoy is down the road, so i thought it might be a military drill? Maybe not though. this is the third sighting ive had in my life so i do believe.

Leyden, CO
I was delivering a passenger for Uber/Lyft. The area was pretty remote, but I was coming out of a small subdivision and was at the intersection of Culebra St and W 82nd Ave in Leyden, Colorado (39.8469, -105.213). I noticed a light floating in the air, over the hill in front of me. I observed the light as I was approaching the intersection and stopped there to open my camera and take a recording. The object appeared to either be made of light, or to be producing light from one side of itself. It was hard to determine if there was a mass behind the light. I have taken frames from the video and it does appear to have something attached but it is faint/small/hard to make out compared to the light. The object floated back and forth, only changing elevation slightly. You can clearly see the light changing directions. Reviewing the frames from the video, the light is continuously changing/adjusting. I stopped my recording when I was startled by a vehicle approaching from behind me. I lost visibility shortly after that as I was in the foothills of the Rockies. When observing the video, at 1:27, a shooting star appears from the top left corner. The star flies in and then stops suddenly straight down. Milliseconds later, a small white orb can be seen floating off the ground. I was not aware of the shooting star when I recorded the video. The video may be viewed here: https://youtu.be/143fGzg3bUo Intriguing video clip sent to NUFORC. PD

Puerto Penasco (Rocky Point)(Mexico) · Mexico
At approximately 10:00 p.m., I witnessed a V-shaped craft with 4 square-shaped reflective areas on the underside, flying over the water near the beach at an altitude of approximately 100-feet (based on height of condo building). It was moving slowly southward and disappeared after a few seconds. This could have been an ultralight flying at night as they fly during the day – but no running lights or sound. About 30 minutes later, my girlfriend and I witnessed a rapidly-moving sphere that seemed to reflect the lights of the condominiums (no lights of its own) moving southeasterly over the ocean – no sound and disappeared as it moved over open water.

Effort, PA
On the night of August 30, 2019, my wife and were standing on our deck observing the sky. It was a very clear night full of stars. After a few minutes, my wife pointed up to one of the stars and mentioned it was moving. I followed looking up to the same place she pointed and lo and behold! It was in fact moving. We both followed it and turned our bodies facing the direction it was going which was behind us. We kept tracking it for about 20 seconds when it suddenly disappeared! We were astonished because we had never seem this before and planes flying overhead at night are clearly visible by their lights and we can hear them. We have no idea what we saw. We tried to find an online resource that would explain and the closest explanation is a satellite. However, we have no way of figuring out if and which it is from various sites. The only tracking info available is for the ISS and its path is nowhere near us. It is supposed to be orbiting over Brazil.

Metropolis, IL
On the morning of August 30, 2019, while traveling north on I-57 near the town of Metropolis, IL, I witnessed something in the night sky. I saw a spherical object traveling at a high rate of speed from right to left (east to west). The sphere seemed to emit its own light. A silvery white light. The movement was perfectly horizontal having no arc. The light was a constant level of brightness neither fading in or out. The sphere was about three hundred feet in front and about one hundred fifty feet in elevation. It appeared over the tree tops to the east. Once the sphere had traveled very quickly across my field of vision and at my ten o'clock position, it suddenly disappeared. It did not fade out but just vanished. At arm's length the sphere was about as big as a shirt button. I first looked at my GPS to see if an airport was nearby, no airport. I observed the time as 5:08am CST. I am a veteran truck driver and have seen many many shooting stars. This was NOT a shooting star. Its trajectory was perfectly linear with no arc or trail. The intensity of light was a constant not fading in or out. We spoke via telephone with this witness, and we found him to be seemingly quite sober-minded and sincere. We suspect that he is an excellent, and reliable, witness. PD
