St. Louis, MO
Facing south east on Telegraph Road, I was walking and as I left a QT gas station, I looked up and saw a glowing sphere shaped object. It was shing bright blue with a white glow to the back, almost like a propellant or exhaust. The object was in my view only for a few seconds before it flew off at alarming speeds. The fastest thing I have ever seen in my lifetime.

Beachwood, NJ
At approximately 1:30 am on the morning of April 1st, 2019, ((i know the timing is terrible because of the date but i have never been more frightened in my life and this is NOT a joke)) i witnessed what i thought was a meteorite falling in the sky. i am laying in my bed and i saw the event occurring out of my open window. i turned to watch the meteorite and almost vomited when i realised it had FROZEN IN MIDAIR. i watched it float for around a full minute, before it silently separated into several large pieces. i am unsure if these were all seperate aircraft or not but.. they all just floated there for another half a minute. in the time it took for my blood to run cold and my mouth to go dry, they LIT UP in the matter of a second, all different colors that actually illuminated my bedroom, and then silently disappeared into nothingness. i am a firm believer in aliens, and had, until now, never experienced anything like this.

As I was walking out my house facing East, I looked up and all around and to the west I see this Red Orb not bright, and what looks like some sort of fog or haze maybe clouds or smoke around it. As it was traveling south I grabbed my binoculars, then the Red Orb shut off I couldn't see the Red Light anymore, although what I could see was this very dark black square looking object continuing traveling south behind the trees and then out of sight.

We have thought about this all night, and day. Nothing makes sense. It wasnt a firework. It just appeared. Couldn't have been a boat, a plane, or balloon.

Sitting on front porch, I looked up into the sky and saw a very bright red “star”. I kept observing while it slowly got closer to the house. I watched it for about 20 more seconds as it kept coming closer. No other lights were seen so it ruled out airplane. (Mind you, an airplane did fly over about 1 minute after orb was seen). Still watching, it started to “what looked like” turn left very slowly and started moving upwards into the sky and then just vanished... I continued to look where it disappeared to see if I could see any other lights but to no such luck. I’ve seen airplanes, helicopters, satellites, and shooting stars. I’ve never seen nothing like it.

Kuwait, Kuwait
We went to the sea side early in the morning. Sun was already above the horizon and it was too bright. Me and my wife started clicking photos of the rising Sun. The horizon was so bright that we barely could see anything on our mobile screen while clicking photos facing the Sun. It only when we reached home and my wife shared photos she clicked, I saw a green spherical shape object above the Sun in the photographs. I am attaching two shots taken by my wife. Please analyze and let us know if we have actually witnessed anything unusual?

Montgomery, TX
Stepped into my back yard around 8pm calling my dog to come in. My dog was standing in the center of the back yard looking up towards the sky growling. I looked up and saw a bright white light shaped like a sphere. No other lights or color. No sound. It appeared low in the sky, hovering over the pine trees for less than 60 seconds and then took off faster than I could blink my eyes and disappeared. I can’t begin to describe the speed. I’ve never witnessed that before.

Memphis, TN
I was walking my dogs behind my house, as I do every night, and noticed an orange sphere moving very quickly across the sky in the south-southwest direction. It appeared to be very high in the sky. It did not have any of the characteristics of the aircraft that Memphis sees in its skies coming and going to MEMH. Firstly, it did not have flashing lights. When the planes are headed directly towards your line of sight, you cannot see flashing lights, but they tend to appear yellowish-white; this craft was a solid, orange ball. Secondly, it was going way too fast relative to its apparent altitude. Had it been a plane at that altitude, it would have been moving much slower across the sky. Thirdly, when it finally dawned on me that what I was looking at might actually be a UFO, and I reached into my pocket to take out my phone, it instantly disappeared; as if you had just flipped a switch. It was completely gone. Since there were no clouds in the sky during this observation, it couldn’t have gone behind a cloud. The entire observation lasted only 10-12 seconds. For years I have made a minor hobby out of watching the FedEx planes coming and going in the Memphis skies, and I am completely certain that what I saw tonight, March 21, 2019, was not a plane or a helicopter.

Ocean Springs, MS
Me and three friends were fishing on the Ocean Springs harbor pier at Front Beach. This pier faces south towards the Mississippi sound and into the Gulf of Mexico. Nearby areas of interest include Keesler Air Force Base. In which alot of airforce activity has been taking place day and night for the past few days, mainly consisting of C-130 Transport planes. The time was around 9:30 PM as we were fishing when me and one of my friends caught a glimpse of a green orb object travelling in a west-to-east at an estimated 65 degrees south of us in the night sky from where we observed it. The object was travelling at a high rate of speed and as it passed it appeared to be moving in a loose zig zag pattern, after it passed us it appeared to change trajectory more downwards, when suddenly what can best be described as a "flame-out" occured, in which the object was briefly covered in flames and appeared to burn out before vanishing in thin air. The object made no sound and not much light reflection, no trail or exhaust was observed.

Port Republic, NJ
On March 18th, around 11:30 a.m. A clear and sunny day. I was parked in my car at Port Republic Park in New Jersey. I was returning emails and phone calls for work, when I looked across the water and saw a black helicopter moving very slow, almost just hovering at about a hundred feet in the air. I watch this for 15 minutes or so. At this point the helicopter was too loud for me to talk business on the phone so I decided to leave. As I drove around down the road the helicopter was coming my way so I pulled off to the side and waited for it to come to me. As it got closer all the dirt wind sticks and leaves we're being blown all around me. Being this close I was able to get a good look at the helicopter. It was all black no markings at all, no numbers or letters or names. There was a person in a jumpsuit sitting outside the helicopter taking photos. There was another car doing the same thing I was but I never talked to him. I was so fixated on the helicopter I almost missed it. I noticed above the helicopter a sphere with multiple flat sides like a hexagon. The sphere was spinning slowly and hovering or moving very slowly at this point. I could see the sun bouncing off the flat metallic sides as it spun. I'm not sure if the helicopter was aware or not. At this point I took out my phone and videotaped but had noticed the sphere was gone from my site. At this point I continued to follow the helicopter at about 10 miles an hour or slower. I could clearly see the person in the helicopter taking photos and at one point of me and my car so I thought I better leave. When I got home and took a look at the video I realized that the sphere was in the sky but had just had moved more to the right. Unfortunately my phone video did not do it justice. That being said I did document the strange event as you can see. When you look at the video enlarged and slow down and you will see the object appear in the bottom Circle then in one frame jumps to the second Circle. I don't know how long 1 frame is but that seems ungodly fast to me. If it wasn't for seeing that jump I may have just wrote it off to a strange sighting that could have been anything. Please analyze and clear up my video as I did the best I could with what I had.

Blackwell, TX
A bright, glowing orb was first seen about 10 degrees above the western horizon beneath Spica. It alternated colors in an 8 second cycle of red-invisible-gold-invisible-red as it moved slowly north, taking about 5 minutes to reach a point beneath Denebola. It was brighter than the planet Jupiter that was visible in the southern sky. The orb continued to move silently northward at the same altitude until it disappeared from sight behind a building.

West College Corner, IN
I was watching the clouds around 1:30 ish pm and I witnessed a ball of light following a jet at some distance away. The ball was catching up to the jet rather fast and as the ball came within moments of collision with the aircraft,the jet then changed course immediately to a 60 or 70 degree angle in an upwardly direction. The ball continued in a straight line then suddenly slowed as if it knew I was watching. Then suddenly a cloud formed and was lost to sight.

Cranston, RI
On 3/16/19 I was bringing in a load of firewood. I thought I saw a meteor, when I looked up, there were 2 round lights side by side coming out of the south west sky. Moving much slower then a meteor, and faster then a plane. They were a dull orange color with a haze around them, which was odd because the night sky was clear and bright. The 2 lights moved at the same speed and same direction, but slightly changed distance from each other. They traveled straight and then turned 90 degrees to the north east, and a few seconds later were gone. They made no noise, and the light was constant, not blinking like airplanes. I saw them for about 10 seconds.

I then called my fiancee and told him to run out side. I then jumped back in the car and then the orb appeared to go back out into the night sky put stayed parallel to the landscape. It was a clear night tonight. My fiancee saw the orb as well when it was flying away. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Mc Alpin, FL
March 15, 2019. About 8:30 P.M. (dark), my mother, husband and myself were sitting outside our cabin south of Live Oak, Florida, but addressed to McAlpin, FL, when my mother noticed a VERY large glowing orange sphere in the sky. There was no sound with it and it was moving very slowly in what appeared to be a northerly direction. My husband and I wanted to get a better look, so we got up and walked to the middle of our driveway. The object hovered for a few seconds while we were in our driveway and it seemed as though when it knew we saw it, it vanished. There was still no sound. The sighting couldn’t have lasted more than a few minutes. None of us have seen anything like this

Richton Park, IL
We were driving East on Sauk Trail when I noticed a spherical, extremely bright, white reflective-looking light in the sky ahead of us that seemed to be pulsating. I would compare the color of the light to the color of a white LED light. I started recording with my phone. It did not appear to be moving, but rather, hovering. We watched/filmed it for just about a minute and then it just disappeared. It did not seem to fly up, down or to either side; it just vanished. I only saw one. Once you press play, zoom in to see it better. Myself, my fiancé and our 9 year old son were present during this event. I am always looking at the sky to see if I can spot anything interesting, and my fiancé was driving, so I had the opportunity to record it.

Lakewood, WA
I never thought I would be making a UFO report to NUFORC, but I suppose there is a first time for everything.. I was on my way to Seattle from the Lakewood 512 Park and Ride, riding on the #594 Sound Transit this morning. It was a sunny and clear morning at about 9:15 am after we had merged onto the I-5 Northbound somewhere around 84th st exit, or a little past that, but way before the Tacoma Dome, I was looking out the bus window, sitting in the very back- left or driver side-seat; I witnessed up in the sky to the west (about a ¼ mile out), not far from the freeway, what appeared to be-2 silent, silver orb or sphere like objects (3 to 5 ft in diameter?), that were either reflecting the sun or had sun like-light emanating from them (hard to tell)-flying at insanely high rates of speed and what looked-to-me like one was chasing after the other! At first thought, the most logical explanation I was thinking was,“ Wow, those are some fast moving drones!! ” But then I quickly realised that that was impossible due to the fact that they were travelling way too fast, making dive bombing and zig zagging motions thru the sky and stopping and then darting off at a right angle and then shooting straight back up into the sky and then disappeared! As I witnessed this I pointed and yelled to my friend who was sitting 2 seats forward, directly in front of me, “Nate, look! Look! What the hell are those?! ” He immediately glanced out his window to his left and scanned the skies but couldn’t see what i was seeing. A few other passengers glanced up from their smartphones and looked at me like I’m crazy and then went back to whatever it was that they were doing. So, I seem to be the only one who witnessed this 10 to 15 second event. It happened so fast that I didn’t even have a chance to try and get video of it with my own smartphone, which I really wished I had been able to do, because nobody is gonna believe this...I hardly believe it myself! I do know that Fort Lewis McChord joint army/air force! base is very close to here. So, is possible it could of been something from there they were testing? If so, I’ve never seen anything move like that and at those speeds in all my life! They literally defied our known laws of physics. If anyone else witnessed what I saw, please report it! I know that even tho my friend didn’t see what I saw, he believes me and knows that I don’t make things up. But, it would be reassuring to know that I didn’t hallucinate the event and am not the only witness, and that perhaps someone else from this area of Washington had seen it too and can corroborate my story. Thank you.

Lovettsville, VA
A flash of light, much brighter and larger than Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky. The location was along the straight line passing through the stars Procyon and Sirius but approximately 5 degrees above the horizon. The light lasted about 2 seconds and did not move or reappear in the next hour. It was very bright, much larger than a plane nearby. White is color with a darker center.

Ontonagon, MI
I am a grad student at Michigan tech. During spring break, me and six other people rented a cabin. We were going snowshoeing and cross country skiing. On the last day of the trip (which I believe was March 10) we all went outside to stand on the the frozen lake to look at the stars. It was maybe 9:30 pm. The first light just appeared in the sky. It was bright white and looked far away. It was moving very fast in complicated maneuvers. A second light appeared, this one started following the first lights movement by tailing it closely. In unison, the lights "dropped" what looked like a flashing orbs. The flash was bright white. The orbs fell directly down from the lights, they did not follow light's trajectory. The orbs flashed five times and vanished. A third light appeared in the sky. All 3 lights sped off. There were 3 sonic booms. The event lasted maybe a minute. When I looked at my phone, I remember it being very close to 10 pm. We had some drinks with our food before the event. None of us were drunk during the event.
