Salisbury, NC
1 craft initiayly. Fiery red orb (assumed as a helicopter from distance) passed over slowly at low altitude. No flashing lights to indicate object as an aircraft or drone. No accompanying sound, completely silent. Ascended into clouds. 12 seconds later 2 more identical craft followed and ascended in the same fashion. Objects were illuminated with a dark crimson hue, glow was bright in center with an exterior similar that of a low burning flame.

Weymouth, MA
Set of five equidistant red glowing circles appearing above horizon for approximately 15 seconds, then dipping down below horizon during the remaining 15 seconds of sight. Origin unknown. Approximately 10,000 feet above the ground. Traveling at approximately double the speed of a domestic aircraft.

Tarboro, NC
I was driving down US highway 64 East, when I noticed 7 orange lights flying in formation. They crossed the 4 lane and I pulled off the highway to see better. Other cars also pulled off and got out looking at the objects. No blinking just solid orange lights. I took a video of 3 of the objects and someone yelled out another group was coming across the highway. I saw then but did not video as my phone camera quit working. Next there were several helicopters coming and I could hear the helicopters not the orange objects, no sound from the groups of objects.

Attleboro, MA
2:40 pm, sunny, windy. Looked up in the eastern sky and saw a spherical object approach, fly overhead and off into the distance. Thought it could have been a mylar balloon but it didn't "dance" like a balloon would and it's rate of speed did not behave like a balloon. There was no noise or lights. Color of the object was silver and reflective.

6:00 a.m. eastern sky, watched what appeared to be a drone? but the bright white light was far too bright and high in sky. At first notice, was well above tree line then it started climbing in elevation straight up into sky. I researched information online on what it could be, could be a comet. I do not believe it is extraterrestrial. Venus and Mercury converge on this day, but movement is unlike planetary orbit.

Oak Island, NC
I knocked on the window and my husband came outside and watched with me. We saw as many as ten of these lights at any given time and they would sometimes blink, sometimes the light would be steady and then they would just disappear. The ocean was very calm and we would have been able to hear jet sounds, but there were none. After a few minutes of this, we saw a very bright orange light appear, which hovered for several seconds before disappearing. This happened about 3 more times, all the while the white lights were continuing to blink and jump around. We then heard a loud rumble like a fighter jet and after that that it was quiet again and all the lights seemed to cease. This event lasted about 15 minutes. We went back inside, but after about 10 minutes I went back out to look again. I began seeing the blinking white lights again, and occasionally heard the jet sounds. My husband came back out and again we saw the orange lights only this time multiple appeared at one time and one of them split into about six lights in a straight line at an angle. This happened two more times, after which the white lights had moved further away and to the west before disappearing altogether. This second event lasted about 10 minutes. I would like to note that we have seen this same phenomenon, or parts of it, on several occasions from this same location. I would really like to know what it is we’re seeing.

Louisville, KY
We observed 9 orange spheres traveling south to north over the city. All in the same direction and at different altitudes. Formation was 2 further ahead, 4 in the middle, and 3 strung out behind. I'm a pilot and these were not airplanes. Just a steady burning orange light. Too fast to be Japanese lanterns. Video was also captured.

Fresno, CA
I was in bed about to fall asleep when I heard a whooshing sound, I jumped from bed moved the blinds in the window aside and saw a somewhat clear sphere that had red lights at the bottom. The sphere was zipping around really fast back and forth like it was looking for something then it stopped at my window as it knew I was looking at it, a bright white light like a spot light that was inside at the bottom of the sphere spun around and shone in my eye. It felt like the light only shone in my left eye which felt uncomfortable by the brightnest of the light, and evey time I think about it I feel the uncomfort in my left eye. I immediately closed my eyes, yelled and fell to the floor I peeped threw the blinds and saw that the object was gone. I remember it made a humming sound the whooshing sound came from it zipping back and forth as in a hurry. I wish I could have got a picture or video of it because no one believe me do to prior encounters.

Me and my parents were driving to my little sisters birthday party in Robinson. I look towards a ups compound/ office building. I see a orb or some kind of light start to float up and it went up then it flew over us. I looked towards my sister who I am one year older than I tell her “Did you see that?!” Then she said “ I think...”for the rest of the day I’ve been wanting to report this but I am confused and scared please let me know about this.

Rachel, NV
On December 7th & 8th, 2018 I took my daughter to Rachel, NV, and to visit the area around Groom Lake/Area 51 and to allow her to "Sky Watch" with new Video Equipment I had purchased for her. On the night of December 8th 2018, while parked adjacent to NV 375 (The Exterresterial Highway) observing Area 51 to the South, at approximately 9:50PM, we witnessed and VIDEO Recorded 2 Incidents of approximately 15 minutes in length, of Orbs, orangish in color, that had 3 lights cemeterial in line, these were NOT Flares, they appeared 4 times, and moved in ways conventual fixed wing air craft or helicopters are unable to. They then "disappeared" midair and reappeared over a 15-minute time frame, the last time on the North side of NV375 (NOT over any Nellis Range Territory) and again disappeared midair. We were unable to capture this via video as we were in our vehicle on route back to our RV. It should be noted that I was monitoring Radio Frequencies via Scanner and there was NO correlating Radio chatter with the appearance of the Orbs NOR was there associated "jet engine noise". While we were filming, we did observe Air Force Jets and heard them at high altitudes, perhaps engaged in high altitude surveillance, BUT there was NO associated "Jet Noise" with the appearance of the Orbs, which appeared much lower than the high-altitude Air Force jets we heard while "sky watching" (( Possible military exercise??

Westtown, NY
I cant recall the name of the road but I believe it was Ridgeburry Rd. I was on but it was in Westtown and I was driving north. I saw a light in the east/ north-east it was about 10° to 15° above the horizon. It was bright enough that I pulled my car over by a pasture with cattle and got out of my car to take a better look. This was at about 425pm. The sky was generally cloudless and the sun was almost down. It did not move so Id thought it was a star, it twinkled like one. I though it was Possibly venus however it was blue, like how whitelights can appear blue, not like a blue led but still between blue and white. If it was a star, it was several times brighter than any star id ever seen other than the sun. Within about 60 seconds of my observing it the star vanished. It was instantaneous. I looked at the place where it had been for maybe 20 to 30 seconds before giving up on seeing it again. As I was getting back in my car I looked up at an airli! ner above my head. There once again was the blue star only this time it was moving at the same pace as the airliner. There were no clouds, and it was right at dawn so I couldnt guess its elevation, only that I believe it was above the plane by a possibly 2 or 3 hundred feet and it was over its right wing, The airliner was flying southwest. Whatever it was stayed with the airliner untill the plane began turning east. Just as the plane began to do this the blue light disappeared again just as suddenly as before. When I checked the time again it was 4:28pm.

Large bright light in east sky. Looked like a star or planet. Seemed stationary but upon further observation it moved around in a perfect circle as if going around an object about the size of a moon.

Perris, CA
I was at lunch and heard the sound of a prop plane overhead. I work near the Perris Valley Skydiving center and the prop planes are making trips several times a day. (March Air Reserve Base is also within 5 miles of the location). As I looked directly overhead I watched the white plane slowly pass by in the clear blue sky. As it passed, I noticed a small group of what appeared to be white or metallic dots/spheres, which were above where the plane had just passed. The plane's altitude I would estimate was approx 1500 feet. My guess on the spheres would be 2500-3000 feet if not higher. I probably wouldn't have noticed them if they weren't in a modified triangular formation and moving apart but maintaining similar formation. I continued watching as they moved Northeast across the sky, at a relatively slow speed. Although they grew further apart they kept the triangular formation. All I had was my cellphone and I took several pictures and a somewhat grainy video as I tried to zoom in on the objects. My first thought was mylar balloons, until they kept formation as they moved in the sky. The event lasted about 5-10 minutes.

Cathedral City, CA
I was outside, with my partner and his friend, taking the dog for a walk. All three of us witnessed the following. We had not had any alcoholic beverages or consumed any prescription medication or the likes that might have resulted in a mind-altered state. At approximately 20:15PST an orange orb appeared in the sky, followed almost immediately by two more orange orbs. They were 3 separate object but flew, silently, together, like a gaggle of geese or a school of fish. The initial orb appeared to drop an unknown object then separate itself from its two counterparts. The orbs flew slowly at first, then hovered for a bit. The two crafts, that were behind the first, eventually caught up to the first. After hovering and slowly, seemingly floating around, as if dancing here and there for a few minutes all three orbs flew at increasing speeds and were gone very quickly. We were in awe and later asked some other friends in passing had anyone else seen this event or heard of anything (military or otherwise) taking place that might have caused the phenomena. However no one wer talked to had seen nor heard of anything. Still, I am left baffled, as I've tried to find an explanation of such an event and have come up empty handed.

Surfside Beach, SC
A minute later, another left the beach not far from me. When I got to where I thought they both originated, there was no one there. Except for myself, the beach was empty. Then I look forward, and a third left the beach only closer to me now – maybe 100 yards in front of me. When I got to where this one launched…nobody. All three disappeared in flickers, ascending over the ocean. Not bottle rockets or flairs. These orange lights were slow and steady.

Springfield/Tallaght (Ireland · Ireland
((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Good Evening Peter Yes the craft in the air was certainly no plane i have ever seen and certainly was far to large to be a drone.. It was definitley unidentifiable.. I live quite near Dublin Airport here in ireland and the Army Barricks and we are very use to all sorts of jets flying over. because our weather is quite poor lately the sky its just complete grey and sun not visable.. it could not have bein a glare either reflecting on a jet..as it was too low to catch a sun glare. it was some sort of large green light or orb sailing through the sky then just gone... and again later that nite same situation but a whiter light and much bigger id say a quater size of the moon.. then it was just gone in seconds not a sound or sonic boom to be heard.. both events were certainly rather unusual.. i would have loven to capture it but my phone memory was full it would not allow the camera to open.. before i got the chance to even delete a file the event was over... I decided to report this purely because of the activity that has bein happenin in our skys here in ireland lately.. and thought you guys may find it interesting.. Hope this helps.. Best regards ((END ADDENDUM))
