Pleasanton, CA
I looked at the road, then out my windshield, and saw the same thing. I looked out the side window again and they were still there, weaving in and out of their paths. Then I saw my exit and planned to stop and get a better look. But they were gone. The sky was clear, no clouds at all. I saw what looked like a plane in the distance, much farther, it was small and white and tubular shaped and it disappeared as well. They seemed real, and not my imagination. They did not look like anything I have seen on TV. The objects did not fit any of the characteristics on the form. It was an exciting moment.

Hurst, TX
This craft showed up during a fireworks show. I was watching from a distance enjoying the show, when I noticed a crescent shape craft light up to the right of my position. It seemed to light up in the crescent inner portion, as it sat stationary. It then just flashed out of sight. It was just gone. Witness indicates a date in "2106." We have attempted to contact him, to verify the date, but have not been successful, yet. PD

Garden City, UT
i was in my driveway, facing south when i saw 3 bright orange lights coming from my right, one ahead of the other 2. They all came to a stop and hovered in front of me, distance was hard to estimate, at first I thought they might be helicopters from the way they moved, but could hear no engine noise. 2 moved upand started moving away at a high rate of speed and disappeared very quickly. The last stayed for a few seconds longer, then slowly moved upward until it also disappeared. Soon after, 3 more came from the same direction as the first 3, one out in front, other 2 following. All 3 stoped and hovered for a few seconds, then 2 left just like the previous did. One remained and seemed to move slowly toward me, then stoped. It was closer than any had come, then it moved slowly upward and disappeared. All were very bright orange and circular, maybe pear shaped and blinking.

Fort McMurray (Canada), AB · Canada
I'm from Nova Scotia, but I work in Alberta, and back in May 5, 2016, I was sitting in a house in Fort McMurray, Alberta, when I saw (what looked like) a dark brown upside down teardrop, with 4 needle like points (like fingers) coming out of it, with a second dark brown upside down tear drop with two points coming out of it too, slightly lowered beside it, flying together. It passed in front of me at the far end of my street. It was about 100 yards away and about 75 feet in the air. It made no sound and both were about the size of a standard school bus each. It was a clear day without clouds. It drifted right across in front of me and drifted off into the horizon, going West. It came from the East.

Seattle, WA
My boyfriend and I stepped onto our back porch, and I looked up and saw a solid black, tear shaped, almost hairy looking (I know that sounds weird but it wasn't shiny and there seemed to be something around it that gave it a spiky looking texture), object, headed 150 degrees SE of Seattle at around 3,500-4,000 ft. It moved slowly, almost a floating motion with absolutely no sound, no lights. The moon was almost full, half of the sky was clear and the other half had low incoming clouds. The object flew through the direct moonlight but there was no moonlight reflection on the object as if the object surface was a flat black. The object seemed to slow down and hover as it reached a large group of clouds and became harder and harder to see, its outline became vague and soon, I could no longer spot it. It seemed to camouflage itself against sky. When it was against the clear sky, it was impossible to see until it was in the moonlight. It ended up kind of blending with the clouds it approached. Size wise, it was smaller than a 747, but larger than a minivan. My boyfriend didn't have his glasses on so he did not see the details I did but he did see its movement. Due to a technical error in our database program, although the date for this report was corrected before our posting on April 22nd, 2016, the report, nevertheless, indicated a date of April 21st. The flawed date should be corrected with our next posting. PD

Hilton Head, SC
I was walking with my grandpa at night on the beach when all of the sudden 3 objects came into view. A few seconds later, the other 3 came into sight. They were a reddish-orange color, and the moved in a figure 8 shape.

Columbia, MD
While returning from an evening out in Frederick, Maryland; at 2:06 AM, traveling on MD 32 East between Exit 18 and Exit 17, directly in our line of sight about 2-4 miles ahead of our vehicle. We saw a single large teardrop object that was luminous green at the base and white light trailing it. It seemed to drop out of the sky and disappear as it would have hit the ground. There was no secondary flash or sound associated with this event. MD 32 South turns to the right from where we saw the object drop and we looked at the area to see if there was any activity in the area, there was none. There was no other traffic in the area when we saw the event.

West Newbury, MA
I saw a slow moving procession of orange fireball looking teardrop/round shaped objects moving from east to west then turning north. All followed the same path, held the same formation and were moving at the same speed. There was a cluster of about a dozen at the begin then 4 more single then 3 more close together in the final cluster. They seemed to by flying at the elevation that a small plane would fly at (4 or 5 thousand feet?) No noise or engine sounds were audible. No blinking lights or spot light were visible, just glowing orange and appeared to be flicking. My wife and I watched for approximately 10 minutes. A couple of cars passing by slowed down and appeared to see them as well. I took pictures and a video on my phone but the objects are very faint.

Mesa, AZ
On this evening, facing as I was coming down the street I saw a craft about the house it seemed to be on its left side I thought it was a helicopter but then I noticed it had no propeller it was facing Southwest as I approached the area a big flood light flashed over the entire house got my attention. in the craft turned more towards the West and then it was gone, nothing. I did approach the house and I asked the people that were leaving the house at the time at the same exact time if they saw anything, and they said, no, they said nothing. they jumped in their cars and rode away in this took place on Colby Street on the east side of Mesa. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

New Cumberland, PA
At 10:06 pm, on 3-12-2016, traveling east on the Pennsylvania Turnpike, about 1 mile from Exit 242, a bright red ball suddenly appeared in the sky coming from the north. The ball was traveling at a fast pace, seemed to hover overhead then started to rise when it just vanished. Photos were taken with a cell phone. When photos were enlarged, ball actually appears to be a tear drop shape containing a bright white light, surrounded by a red exterior. Prior to seeing the red object, there were two bright lightening type flashes that occurred about 2 miles from where the red object was visible.

Preston, MN
My mom, two brothers, and myself were driving down the road from Fountain to Preston and as we were driving we saw a floating craft with flashing red and white lights. We all tried to debunk it as a star or a police helicopter but it was moving which told us it wasn't a star plus it flashed different colors also telling us it wasn't a star. We could tell it wasn't a helicopter due to it moving to fast. And for a short time it seemed as if it was hovering over a field almost searching for something. As we left Preston it started following us, shortly after it all of the sudden vanished. We haven't seen it since.

Arlington, VA
Was walking my dog, helicopter was in the area in apparent low large oval orbit with landing spotlight shining in Douglas Park area. As it moved towards Four Mile Run Road, I saw an object moving along the dark skyline, traveling northwest. The weather was clear, object glowed bright green with small glowing tail of green, my first thought it was an aircraft possibly the helicopter, but noted it was bright and moving horizontally at a moderately fast flight NW...second thought was it was a falling star type object, but it was too close to horizon to be that. Object should possibly have been observed by helicopter in the area as they were in the same basic direction.

Cerritos, CA
This morning, approximately around 6:40 am, I was outside and noticed a reflection on my glass door of a greenish, blue and yellowish glowing ball (like a fireball) moving across the sky. I turned around to face it and it was moving fast, headed for earth. I saw it for maybe 35 second (includes the time I first spotted it as a reflection), before homes and trees blocked my view., I actually stayed quiet and still, waiting for a loud crash or a jolt, which I did not hear or feel. Note: I was not sure about which shape to select, but it was between the fireball and the teardrop. There was definitely a roundness to it, but had a tail like a fireball falling from the sky at great speed, This ball was quite brightly glowing, considering the morning sky was fairly lit, and my glass door was dusty,. Video captured by a beach camera at Doheny Park, Dana Pt., CA. Object appears to us to be a meteor, streaking from west to east. Please see video on NUFORC homepage. PD

San Ramon, CA
It was a point of light travelling slowly westward from about 5 deg west of Polaris, with a faint, comet-like tail protruding sideways toward the north. The end of the tail seemed to end in a roughly spherical cloud. It traveled westward for about 45 seconds where I lost sight of about 15 deg above a relatively brighter horizon. The fuzzy teardrop-shaped feature was large - about three times the diameter of a full moon. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Los Angeles (Venice Beach), CA
yesterday at sunset a completely identified object, 1 of the Predator Iraq war drones flying silently east to west opposite the LAX flight path out to sea. Super Bowl security? N Korea weekend launch threat? I have lived around LAX 47 years, 1st time ever seen that, just an overt sunset flight or something.

Five of us walking at night see a bright light falling from the sky. Green surrounding a white ball with a hint of orange on the bottom. It shot down in a straight line, around 30 degrees elevated from our direction. 2 (with us at the time) have seen this happen twice before in the same area. Possibly a green meteor?? The Quadrantid Meteor shower peaks on the morning of January 4, 2016. We have amended the date above. PD

It then quickly jetted to the left and lifted straight up in the sky. I have noticed this object for months but never seen it move that fast in an opposite direction . During the summer months, i could see it but thought maybe it was a satelite! Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
