Morehead City, NC
Me and a friend were meditating on the beach in Morehead City, North Carolina. We decided to lay back and out of nowhere I pointed out two balls of light that were flying over the ocean back and forth sometimes sitting in one place. The way it moved was not what any plane could do. It moved back and forth rapidly and up and down. I've never seen anything like it. It was pretty late at night, probably about 11:00 p.m. and I'm pretty sure it was still there when we left. I haven't thought much of it until I read a story of exciting in North Carolina, so I decided to share mine.

Huge lightning on the sky but that spreads over the sky like waves and the light in each wave last for at least 7 seconds then lighted back on again.

Was out a ride bored with our dog stopped to let the dog run iin the field. When my boyfriend noticed all these red lights pulsing on the horizon and you could tell they was pretty far away, when his brother noticed one red light that was of away from all those we watched it fly unlike any aircraft we've ever seen to where all the pulsing lights was. We watched those lights for hours and they was still there when we left.

Bloomington, IN
At around 23:00, I saw what I quickly assumed was a plane: three red, constant lights. Thinking nothing of it, I looked away and resumed watching YouTube videos. About an hour later I looked out my window again. The object was in the exact same spot. I have never seen lights there before. It moved up and down a little bit, but not side to side. I tried to get a photo, but it was like photographing stars. The lights were too far away and not bright enough to show up on camera. I texted my friend to ask for a UFO hotline number, and when I looked back the lights were gone.

Holyoke, MA
My boyfriend was looking out our apartment window which shows a scenic view of the Connecticut River, facing South Hadley. He asked me to come look out the window at what at first, looked like a star. We noticed it kept getting darker and then very bright in an instant, and it would do this slowly; fade and come back. It wasnt normal looking to me whatsoever. We also saw an aircraft (plane) within the vicinity of this object. The object of light would also occasionally look like arms of some sort (I can describe the arms as looking like Doc Oc's mechanical arms in Spiderman) would appear surrounding the oval light. This would happen when the light would brighten up with extreme brightness. Eventually, it disappeared. The plane did too.

Yucca Valley, CA
This object came from the east at a high rate of speed. At first it looked like a shooting star. The object made a hard right turn headed north for about 45 seconds then made a U-turn heading south until it disappeared. The object made no sound. I am not sure how large it was. PS love you on the coast to coast show. Keep up the good work.

Girardville, PA
On 7/5/20 at approx 0240 I, along with 2 others, were sitting outside talking. It was an extremely clear night. The moon was full and so bright that it actually drown out a lot of the stars. There were 2 other very visible objects in the sky that night that we identified, using a phone app, as Saturn and Jupiter, all in the southern sky. While sitting out, a very bright orange light appeared in the western sky, catching my eye. I asked the people with me if they could see the object. They agreed that they could. At that time my wife began to record the unusual object with her cell phone. We watched as the object moved rather slowly from west to east until it seemed to become stationary and then slowly disappeared above us. The object didn’t seem to emit any sound nor did it have any other lights.

Weaverville, CA
On the night of 4th of July 2020, my two other buddies and I (all of us friends for 20+ years since high school) were backpacking in the trinity Alps north of Weaverville, Ca. We had been backpacking 9 miles on the Caribou lake trail into deep wilderness that day. It was a perfectly clear night, 10:30pm. We all were talking, sitting by a fire when I saw a bright white light appear over a nearby mountain ridge, stationary, hovering at Upper Caribou Lake. It hovered for roughly 3 minutes. It took me by surprise as I thought (at first) it was a planet but it started to slowly move upward, very slowly. I yelled OMG, UFO. My two other friends jumped up and by the time we all reached the edge of the lake (away from the treeline) it was gone. I was the only one that saw this first sighting. Later that night around 11:30pm as we stayed up and moved away from the fire and sat at the lakes edge, one of my friends was alarmed at a series of odd blinking lights straight above are heads. We all looked up and the lights continued to blink in a random pattern far away from each other, too far apart to be a passing plane. Weird colors amber, red, then bright white. At one point we saw a streak of light continue into more blinking lights that seemed unattached to any know plane or craft of known origin. All three of us confirmed the sighting as it happened. I remember the last set of blinking lights being very intense with a super bright amber light flashing quickly a fair distance away from the other flashing lights we had just witnessed. This second sighting of the night lasted about two minutes and crossed half way over the visible sky from are vantage point. We've seen many planes flying at night and this string of flashing lights didn't match up to anything we've ever seen. I will note there was no bangs, or typical sounds related to any fireworks. Plus, we were in the deep wilderness far away from any nearby town. Lastly, about 30 minutes after the blinking light event, I was standing near one of my friends while the third friend was walking behind us (again near the lakes edge) The friend closest to me and I felt a strange since of missing time as it felt our third friend had vanished or was suddenly placed sitting on a nearby rock. The friend sitting on the rock said he was sitting there the whole time. Granted it was late and we all were very tired at this point, but the fact my buddy closest to me and I felt the same experience caught us by surprise. We both immediately confirmed the experience and talked about it. These events were odd, as my two friends and I have been backpacking many times in the wilderness and have witnessed several times over the years odd lights in the sky. But, only when all three of us are together on these hiking trips. We feel there is some kind of pull towards us being more receptive to these experiences. Very strange. I could go into more detail about our other sightings over the years but I will keep this short as to be more relevant with this current sighting. Thank you for reading this count. I'm an illustrator/ digital artist and could illustrate the light event if needed for more documentation. Best to you!

I went on my deck to see some fireworks and to my right flank at about a 45 degree angle were 2 of the brightest red lights just sitting there as if they or it was watching the show after a few minutes one moved straight up and dimmed out the other one started to move to the north ever so slowly then dimmed out slowly. This red light was so red I have NEVER seen anything like it before very weird.

Hilliard/Columbus, OH
This is the 3rd time I have seen these lights around Columbus, OH. On July 4, 2020, shortly before 10:00pm my wife and I noticed several orange glowing/flickering lights in the distance. We live in Hilliard (city just outside Columbus) and noticed these lights in the southern sky above the horizon. I assume they were several miles away (maybe coming from around Grove City). We initially saw 2 during the fireworks everyone was setting off. We then saw a few more lights join (looked almost like they were taking off from somewhere in the distance). I can say for certain they were not helicopters or drones. They moved unlike anything I have seen (aside from the other 2 times I saw these lights), kind of moving in and out of a triangular formation or just meandering. Occasionally, 1 or 2 would flicker and disappear, only to reappear a few seconds later. In total, we saw about 7-9. My wife got a brief video on her phone but was a little shaken up and went back in! side. I know drones can move around in different directions, but these would have had to have had very bright lights (a little brighter than Jupiter in the night sky). Also, they eventually went up into the sky and disappeared. I have seen videos on youtube of these same kind of lights in Cincinnati.

Springfield, MO
On July 4, 2020, I had visited my parents home to celebrate independents day. Around 9:30pm (21:30) I left to return home. When I got to the intersection just below my parents house, I noticed a round flashing light in the sky. My first thought was an airplane, headed to the airport. But then I noticed a second light at a distance behind the first one. Our airport doesn’t receive airplanes that close together. It’s a rather small airport with not much traffic. I grabbed my cell phone and snapped a quick picture. I wanted to get out and watch it but a car pulled up behind me and so I turned and pulled to the side of the road. I stopped the car, and got out. This is when I decided to film the lights. I was a little shook up and fumbled around with my cell phone but I was able to get three short video clips. In the last video, I panned from the light in the front to the light in the back and stayed with that second light until it disappeared. The light was red and yellow like fire and flashed in pulses. (All caught in video!) then it just dissolved into the sky. After the event,I reviewed the still picture I took and noticed a third set of lights above the other two with very faint lights in two rows, exactly parallel to each other. These lights were NOT visible to me with my naked eye and only appear in the photo. I also zoomed in on the initial ball of light and could see it wasn’t completely round. There was a “stem” of light on the front. The event lasted for several minutes. Much longer than any pyrotechnics would

Goodyear, AZ
On July 4, 2020, I had a sighting that will stick with me for the rest of my life. I was out in the backyard with my mom watching some fireworks when I saw two bright, red lights hovering in the sky. After several moments, it was apparent this wasn’t a firework. My first thought is that it might have been a drone (I’m an FAA Certified Part 107 drone pilot), but I’ve never seen a drone with lights like that. Attached is a picture and a video I shot from my backyard. This was taken in Goodyear, Arizona, and it appears to be within Goodyear airspace, which is restricted due to the nearby Air Force base (F-16 and F-35 training base) and several airports including the Goodyear Airport. It was not moving at all, though the video was shaky because I was trying to get closer and the camera was unstable. When I saw it, it was hovering there steadily. After about a minute of doing so, the lights shut off like someone flipped a switch. It didn't turn direction, it didn't descend or ascend, the lights just went out. My mom saw it on a separate occasion, about 10 minutes earlier that same night. Her experience was different than mine. She saw it hovering and not moving at all. Then it abruptly moved to the right a little bit, the lights turned blue, and it disappeared.

Petaluma, CA
I was stargazing with one of my friends on a field at an. elementary school, around 11:30 at night, when we saw a star-like light appear, I had seen similar ones a month earlier and thought they were UFOs too. It wasn’t blinking or twinkling and wasn’t a star, plane, or satellite. When it moved it kind of wavered and moved in one direction, and then curved and went faster and suddenly disappear. And then. Like five minutes later, another one appears in a different part of the sky, it does the same thing and goes in the opposite direction of the other one and disappears.

Pikeville, TN
Every night since May, except when its raining, a bright small light comes down from the sky and visits me. No matter how high in the sky it is, if I peek out my window, it sees me and comes down to see me as if it’s as curious about me as I am it. If it rains, it does not come down. It stays in the sky until dawn then disappears into the clouds. The closest it’s gotten is about 25 yds. I do not have a fancy camera so the films I’ve made in the dark from my phone is all I have. It looks like a starfish but it glows. There is something that follows along side of it and it doesn’t glow but moves with it. When it moves it shoots out white light across the treetops and sky, it reminds me of heat lighting. My husband has seen it many times and at first thought it must be a drone but now he’s not sure what it is. One night I was lying in bed and it came so close that my hair was standing up on my crown. My dog senses when it gets too close and starts growling. When I tell people about it, they just laugh at me so I haven’t had anyone come see for themselves except my husband. He has seen it but he is afraid it’s a drone. This is not a drone, it makes no noise.

New Castle, CO
I live in a small town called New Castle. New Castle is about 3 hours west from the states capitol of Denver, Colorado. On Thursday, July 2nd, my girlfriend and I decided to go for a late in the night drive along a winding dirt road, miles away from any civilization, Buford Road. Found a private quiet place to park, not a soul in sight. Up high in the mountains, giving us a excellent view of the sky in the dead of summers night. After a long day, and a long night of adventuring we both decided to get some shut eye camping in my Suzuki. Now this is where things start getting weird. Neither of us have any recellection of attempting to close our eyes to sleep or falling asleep, however every time I have a experience there is a trans- like paralysis state I’m always in. The last few times I’ve been able to resist this state, therefore I now have some memories intact. I first remember looking out my driver side window seeing a being that was barely able to peek over the car into the window, which was very small in length, not even reaching 4ft. The body was only a few inches wide, head was shaped similar of a old fashioned iron. Having large oblong jet black eyes, with a slit of red sitting in the center. The beings appearance represented how a abstract painting looks, if that makes any sense? I then look over towards the passenger seat. This feeling felt as if there is an invisible force pushing back on you as you try to move anything to keep you in place, in a state somewhere between reality and the dreaming relm. There was one sitting right there next to me! Appeared to be identical to the same one looking through my window moments ago. In the backseat sitting was a friend of mine (who happens to be my girlfriend now). That being had startled me enough to the point that led me to take a swing, able to make contact with my fist, all while knowing she was back there. Once making full-on contact, The Being then disappeared, leaving me with a sore hand, now convinced this is all very real. While still in a paralyzed state, mentally and physically I was able to understand what was going on. Which helped me manage to get a grip, and to focus. Focused just enough I was now able to take control, freeing myself choosing to slam down onto the steering wheels ! horn. Instantly had started yelling for girlfriend, almost begging to look up at starry eyed sky. Both now with our heads cocked straight back, I noticed the same light from before catching my attention, making me curious once again. This unknown light was now brighter than all the others, now appearing much closer. Watching intentivlely as the light emitted a shower of sparks as it darted across the sky… and was gone. The next morning I tried calling rifle airport (the nearest airport) to inquire about if they had a radar and they told me the nearest one would be all the way in Denver. I did not call Denver seeing as I am sure they wouldn’t have told me if something had of appeared on radar. This is just one experience of many. I have woke up one time on a road that did not connect to the road I was on before the experience. I’ve woken up 30 miles away in the wrong direction. I have even came to one time going about 30 miles per hour on I-70 with traffic flying by me honking their horn.

It's a regular event anymore, from bright blinding white light to the multi color flashing light with two solid light like-wings triangular in shape. Daily routine, they keep their positions regularly. But it gets really weird at times, no one wants to sound crazy but it makes you think it. Fortunately, I caught it on camera but not the huge figure almost transparent. Just numerous smaller almost transparent/blue triangle ships with one large traveling at unrealistic speeds. There's been so much in the past 3 yrs. It's crazy more people haven't realized whats going on, at all.

At approximately 3 a.m. July 1st, I opened an upstairs skylight window, as I like to stand there and look over the park across the street to the east. When I turned around to face west and looked up at the stars, I noticed a bright white light like a pinpoint. The light was moving steadily eastward and I lost sight of it after about 30 seconds. When I looked back west I noticed that there were two more white pinpoint lights moving in the same direction. The light in front went in the same direction as the first light I saw. As I as keeping track of light #2, I looked back at number three and noticed it was veering to the right slightly. Prior to this sighting, I have only seen two other UFOs. So it was extremely exciting to see three in a row like this, and I looked up at the stars to the west where they had come from and saw there was another, white pinpoint light appearing. That’s when I thought, they must be entering the atmosphere to the west of me and travelling east. In total I saw six, white pinpoint lights of the exact same brightness, moving at approximately the same speed and direction. All six appeared in the same area, were at a very high altitude and never blinked or fluctuated.

Oxford, MI
A bright light (about same brightness as other stars) was visible in the eastern sky. The light stood out because it appeared to have a red “tail”. We observed it for over an hour. Whatever it was seemed to make a gliding movement across the sky whenever it moved (kind of like how a submarine moves). The object moved across the sky in a west to northwest direction. It did not ever appear to move very fast.

at the time I was on a FaceTime call with my friend laying in bed. it was a foggy night and I had my two windows open. A large disk formed clump of lights colored with gold and white, super bright, flew by my two windows just below the clouds but right over a tall tree. I immediately jumped up yelling what did I just see them quickly went onto Snapchat to get a date and time and description of what I just saw. after it flew by my dog started shaking. it was not an airplane or a drone and it was silent but close. I don’t know what I saw that night but for sure was a ufo.
