I have no idea what I’m looking at in this video but it deserves a look. I was out with my friend in Pennsylvania when his security system in Florida went off. No one’s at his farm so he thought it was someone breaking in at first. However, if you watch the security footage he posted you’ll see an orb as well as a lens flare(I think) from the orb floating around the room. The lights turn on and they only operate by a switch! Let me repeat that. The lights turn on and this man is in Pennsylvania! I’m not sure what it is all I know is it’s really weird: https://fb.watch/kWZhnA7aZC/?mibextid=l2pjGR The "orb" is a spiderweb in front of the camera. [NUFORC annotation: Insect - Certain]

I was sitting in my backyard on my trampoline when I saw a firework looking flare. Which is what I thought it was. Then it did not explode and just disappeared. It was right above the trees so I could see it pretty well.

AKRON, OH
I was outside with my dog letting her use the restroom. It was a clear night. I was sober. I was admiring the stars. While observing the stars, object entered view and gained my attention. Once observed directly, dim light moving in a straight line from left to right from behind tree branches. I thought it was a satellite based on it moving straight and in a consistent speed. Object then started to light up, becoming brighter and brighter still moving straight from left to right in the sky. Object then started becoming more dim again, dimmer than when it first entered view but was still visible. Object suddenly dipped "down" in the sky. Still very dim but tracable with the naked eye, made a maneuver never observed before, it accelerated at an alarming rate. It moved from its downward to the right dip, directly into an upward to the right turn, shifted suddenly northeast in the sky from my perspective and was out of site. I stood in disbelief of what I witnessed for some time. It wasn't a plane because it cannot perform that manurver and it had no flashing lights that would identify an airliner.

Saw a huge chevron shape of multiple reddish-orange colored lights fly over from west to east. 5-10 seconds. Maybe 2-3 miles wide. No sound. Appeared to be out in space. Not starlink.

IdentifiedCannes, Provence Alpes Cote d'azur · France
Les 2 et 3 juin 2023, aux alentours de 22h, un couple résidant à Cannes (06) a observé, lors de deux soirées consécutives, un objet très lumineux et immobile dans le ciel. Le 3 juin, un second couple d'amis était également présent et a confirmé l'observation du phénomène. Cependant, un seul témoin a rempli et soumis un questionnaire au GEIPAN. L'observation a été réalisée depuis plusieurs emplacements situés sur la commune de Cannes. Le témoin rapporte une direction d'observation orientée vers le sud. Toutefois, l'analyse des photographies prises indique une orientation comprise entre l'ouest et l'ouest-nord-ouest. À l'aide de jumelles, l'objet semblait constitué de plusieurs points lumineux de taille homogène, en mouvement constant, donnant à l'ensemble une apparence variable, parfois sphérique, parfois en forme de croissant. Chaque observation a duré environ deux heures. Trois photographies du PAN ont été prises le soir du 3 juin à l'aide d'un téléphone portable. Sur ces clichés, l'objet apparaît sous la forme d'un point lumineux blanc. Les détails observés à l'oeil nu et décrits par le témoin à travers les jumelles (formes et points lumineux distincts) ne sont pas visibles sur les images. Par ailleurs, le 1er juillet 2023, le témoin a rapporté une nouvelle observation du même phénomène, qu'il a cette fois pu filmer. La vidéo montre à nouveau un point lumineux blanc, sans éléments de repère permettant de le situer précisément dans le ciel. D'étrangeté très faible et de bonne consistance* (4 témoins, mais un témoignage unique, photos et vidéo du PAN), ce cas s'avère être une observation de la planète Vénus. *selon les critères du GEIPAN, la consistance est la quantité d'informations considérées comme fiables et objectivées, recueillies pour un témoignage. L'aspect visuel du PAN, ainsi que la direction d'observation ajustée par l'enquête, sont parfaitement cohérents avec l'observation de cette planète, effectuée à deux reprises aux mêmes horaires lors de soirées consécutives (voir le compte rendu d'enquête). Sur les photographies, un seul point lumineux est visible, alors que deux points proches l'un de l'autre auraient dû apparaître si Vénus n'était pas à l'origine du PAN. De plus, le PAN est resté observable jusqu'au coucher de Vénus et a été de nouveau aperçu le 1er juillet 2023 en soirée, mais avec une hauteur angulaire réduite, en parfaite cohérence avec la position attendue de la planète à cette date. Par ailleurs, les variations de forme du PAN décrites lors de l'observation aux jumelles correspondent à un artefact perceptif résultant d'un mauvais réglage de l'instrument. En effet, focaliser précisément des jumelles sur un point lumineux isolé, sans repère de distance, est particulièrement difficile. Dans certaines conditions, l'image perçue peut se superposer avec celle générée par l'oeil (phénomène de vision entoptique), entraînant une illusion de mouvement de l'objet observé. Le cas est classé "A", observation de Vénus. [GEIPAN classification A — Vénus]

My dad witnessed this, but asked me to post. He said he was at the gas station and looked up because he saw a light below the clouds. He said the object moved around quickly and changed from a circle to almost a diamond shape. It zipped behind the clouds and he was unable to locate it again.

I was looking at the moon and what I thought was a star or Venus but the star was moving. Definitely not an airplane and I don’t think Satellites move that way. I took the video in slo mo and the movement was erratic.

It was just after twilight,on a very clear pleasant evening in the mountains of east Tennessee .I live on a five acre tract that used to be a farm less than 1 mile from the Appalachian trail. I was stepping out my back door for an after dinner smoke and looking to the western sky ,I saw four points of light miles away, I thought they looked a little like something I saw about three years ago here on my place.That time I was alone so very few people were told .This time I had two witnesses, I called my wife who was in the bedroom, "They're Back" she had been told before our marriage "you will see ufos. It is just something I have dealt with since childhood. When she sees them she starts saying prayers. She got a good look ,back to the bedroom to pray. Next ,my friend Shortie had been doing some tree cutting with the chainsaw at the upper end of my property,He also had been told beforehand as I do anyone who I spend much time with "O'l pal I'm just telling you if you hang out with me you will see a ufo "I would love to see one!"he said. Hey Shortie! I yelled! SHORTIE! at the top of my lungs...no good the saw was running,he can't hear.So,I hop in my car the big ufos 25 yards away but had not come any closer than my Property line.But,when I backed out in the road to drive up to my friend they moved along side me following me to Shortie. I pulled in behind his pickup an yelled as he turned off the saw,Have you seen the ufos? What ufos? Go up to the top of the hill, I am right behind you, We made it in time and he got a good look,we watched them for another 10 minutes then they slowly moved away I said I am gonna follow them to see where their going ,after just driving up to the top of my land my car, that never gave any problems refused to start Shorty offered a boost ,his pickup refused to start. 10 minutes later after the big ufos left Shortie's pickup started right up I tried to start mine all week then as suddenly as it happened mine started perfectly. I guessed they wanted to clip my wings for seven days.the ufos had many white lights that were seen miles away on Buck Mountain,and Hampton Creek for sure.folks talked about it I only told close friends they came to my place,again.the direction they travelled was west to east ,I wonder if they had been inspecting nuclear fuel services in Unicoi County? Who knows after seeing them so many times I told my closest friends and wife if they wanted to do harm to me it would have happened years ago so,I am 64 now when I was a child I wanted to be an astronaut,If I see them again I intend to ask them if I could go up with them, just to see Earth from space and if they're willing the dark side of the moon would be cool.

Hubert, NC
I was coming home from work, coming down Queens Creek rd Hubert NC, coming to a stop sign at the end of the road. I was listening to music looking at the sky all of a sudden a HUGE green lit up rounded triangle appeared, it had 3 dots close to the tips of the triangle, the border of the craft was also lit up green, almost a honeydew color, it was a little above the clouds, before I could get the words What the fuck out of my mouth the thing took off towards the ocean faster then any plane I've ever seen and disappeared into the clouds. My radio also received static. I am concerned because I live near a military base and this thing was very close to it. This is no joke my cell phone number is (deleted). Please do something with this information, it scared the shit out of me.

Bright blue green plasma, colored lights, in the sky while driving down I 94 east in between Paw paw, Michigan and Matawan Michigan. Lights were dimming then getting bright, then flickering, then getting bright then staying bright. Looked like lightning that lit the sky up longer than normal. The color of it was very odd. I’ve never seen the sky that color before and the closest thing I can compare to it is lightning, but it was way different.

Lakewood, OH
The shape of the craft was triangular diamond shaped that had sharp edges. It was white, glowing, and soundless. It stayed the exacted speed with the exact height for the duration of its travel. It wasn’t going fast or slow maybe like 5-10 mph. The motion of it was unusual it was gliding but unnatural. Certainly something I haven’t seen before. We were in the pool swimming when I looked up and it emerge from the house and flew across to the end of garage then disappeared. It was a residential neighborhood near Lake Erie.

Mount Vernon, WA
Latitude - Longitude 48.41050, - 122.30815 UFO/UAP 06/01/23 10:30 pm I was looking north, it was heading east, from over the ocean I have been watching a low traveling, morphing, bright light through my high powered binoculars. It was heading north east from me and low in the sky. It first appeared oval, but then it became perfectly round. Its bright orange gold light, changed from lighter to darker. It also had black dots or holes that moved across it changing directions and sizes, like boiling liquid. I first saw it in the shape of a circle. It was pulsating and shining very bright then darker colored gold and orange. Then it would change position and just looked like a flat golden pancake. It maneuvered again and I only saw a dark sliver of it. But, on the outsides of the dark sliver, it was still bright gold. It appeared at first to be flying up right, and now it was flying on its side. Then back to flying upright. Pulsating with those black holes moving continuously. Very active and appeared to be always pulsating and changing its shape. It kept dropping lower and was heading west. Towards Mount Baker.

6 orange orbs moving from south east to west. Only 4 were recorded on video from phone. No sound except the water flowing into pool, since this was recorded from inside my pool enclosure. The orbs brightened randomly.

My bf and I saw some weird red blinking lights within a cover of dark cloud or mist not more than 209 ft from my 3rd floor balcony in n New Bedford ma. I took multiple videos. Cold front came after what looked like strange cloud or mist formation rises up into the sky and moves in. Night became full fog. Next night went to check, see one, then four than more than 10 or so uaps in the sky. Multiple videos. One might have followed my walking/running pattern when I went outside. Bf saw it too. Very excited/ freaked out by it. Jets or planes were flying to “check it out” all throughout the night. Would really love to show a professional!! Most interesting thing I’ve ever seen. I even would go as far as to say the sighting last night could have provoked the sightings last night. Ugh! Can’t believe it happens. Glowing orbs, circles, lights. All in different spots around the sky. 2 bright ones, multiple orange and a multitude of small or dull blue/white. My phone camera picked them up better than my eyes for the dull ones but the bright ones were as bright as a planet. (Upload will not allow me to submit videos- I have MANY)!!

Bright object similar to iss but iss not visible my location during sighting. Object visible every few days around 9-930 pm. Object takes a different orbit per sighting. Also China space station not visible during sighting. Object brightness I think is reflection from sun.

When we got closer, we saw a floating triangle and my grandmother said the lights were moving. I saw three lights. She stopped to look when I said there was a second one and then they sped off. One went in the direction of a field and the other I don't know. The second one was hovering around the first before speeding off. I got the best picture I could my flash on my phone wouldn't turn off. My grandmother says it couldn't be a plane because it wasn't in the direction of the airport

Clinton, IN
The object looked like a multicolored , shapeless...thing which shined almost as if were reflecting against the night sky, When first spotted it was red and blue before putting on a light show and changing from green yellow and red, as well as a teal like color, it was really quite beautiful. it hovered in place and zoomed around at very fast speed, dipping beneath the tree line at times, after a while it just flew eastward at high speed. Sadly I was drinking at the time of seeing this so my memory will be effected. but included are some videos of the object (Please excuse my language/behavior in the videos as stated before I was excited by what I was seeing and had consumed several beers.) The main reason I decided to report this was due to the congressional UAP hearings and the Las Vegas incident that happened around the same time, which somewhat resembled what I had seen. I seen the object again about a week or so later but it didn't act as strange and the sighting lasted only a couple of minutes

5/31 8:49 While looking up at the stars I noticed an image moving across the sky that I thought was a satellite. It seemed lower and to be moving faster than satellites I've seen in the past. After observing it for maybe 30 seconds as it moved west to east, it mad a sharp turn (not quite 90°) and proceeded North east and it seemed to speed up. The following night (6/1) I was outside with my dogs at 8:01 PM I captured an image of an orb moving in the same general direction. I had time to notify my wife and she observed it to with the naked eye. This time it didn't turn on an angle but rather kept on the same path, west to east. It was in view for just over a minute and as I was simultaneously recording on my phone and watching with the naked eye, it suddenly disappeared. I had it locked in on the recording and it wasn't really dimming or fading away. It just disappeared. I had convinced myself it was a floating latern but after showing others and examining and comparing images, I'm not so sure.

This perfectly spherical black object moving in a straight line high up in the sky. I managed to take a video of it. It could be nothing but the way it moved slowly across the sky in such a straight line and being so perfectly round was very bizarre [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Possible]
