I’m reporting on some sort of UFO (unidentifiable to myself) I saw last year. I am only just now reporting because I was unaware I could report this. I was referred by someone on Reddit from the r/UFOs page. I can’t remember the EXACT date and EXACT time: roughly June 29-June 30 of 2018; time may have been anywhere in between 10P-12A I believe. Me and my girlfriend were in New Mexico driving from Colorado to Oklahoma, taking HWY 64 going E/SE. I was exhausted already, and so was my girlfriend. During the trip, we would smoke a little bit of herb to keep our mind occupied. But I am confident that was I saw was not due to me being tired or possibly high. I’ve never had such an experience before. I believe 100% what I saw. I was sitting passenger seat, hadn’t seen a car or been near a town for miles and miles. What I seen was a single, bright red light from the top right corner of the windshield, seeming only about 10-15 feet from what would be the top of our car (a sedan). It struck me as odd, so I watched it through the side passenger mirror. It looked as if it very slowly rose into the sky but stayed in the same position at the same time. There was no way it was the reflection of the taillights of the car on a road sign. It was a bright and sharp orb of red light. It seemed to suspend in the air, maybe about 20 seconds. I was able to look through the back windshield to make sure and it was there, almost directly behind us but in the sky. It slowly faded out until there was nothing but the darkness behind us. It looked if it may have been traveling N/NW. I’m not sure what it was, and hope to find out if there is a scientific explanation for this. My girlfriend says she didn’t see it, but her eyes were on the road because she can’t see the best at night. This is not a made up story or a hoax. This actually happened to me. I tell my friends and family this story, and it’s even more believable that it could be a phenomenon based on location. (( Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)

Orange orb about the size of the orange moon seen earlier in the evening. 5 to 7 scattered small lights in front of it. It moved northward over the ocean, faster than a plane and much larger. No sounds was heard.

In the evening, my family and I sat down on our deck for dinner. My oldest daughter noticed something floating overhead and said, “wow, look at that”. My other daughter, wife and I all looked up and noticed what looked like a clear, translucent balloon like object floating in the sky. I thought it may be a plastic bag, or something similar, but I continued to watch it. It appeared to be rising very slowly. I noticed it went just behind a cloud, and was much larger than I first imagined. Not sure how large, but the lower clouds were probably at roughly 8,000 to 9,000 feet, we are at about 5,000 feet. The clouds were drifting fairly fast from west to east, but the wind did not affect the floating object at all. In fact, it was drifting from east to west and still rising slowly. I went into my house and grabbed a pair of binoculars to observe the object closer. When viewed through binoculars, it still seemed to be a translucent object with two possibly rigid rings. The rings sort of reflected the sunlight sort of rainbow like. I observed that is was just above the low clouds now as they drifted by from west to east (our typical wind direction). So my initial thought of it being some sort of weather balloon was mystified by the fact it was still rising in a westerly direction, into the wind. The clouds above it were also drifted from west to east, so the wind from that day was typical for our area, out of the west. This is why I decided to send in this report, if it had risen and drifted the same direction as the clouds then I would have been sure of it being a balloon. We went back into the house, did some dishes and came back out a bit later, maybe and hour and a half, and the object remained. It was a bit higher, but still traveling very slowly westward, while all clouds were traveling from west to east. We looked again after dark, but did not see the object then. I looked it up online to see if anyone had seen anything like it. I did see something that looked exactly like it in a youtube video shot over Brazil in 2017. That video is at the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yXoES7Dlp0 . That video shows the object above clouds drifting in the opposite direction.

Scotia, NY
Clear sky with moon out. While walking due NE, I saw an object about the size and brightness of Venus, traveling NE in a straight line. It was moving much slower than a meteor, but faster than a plane. It was a steady, bright white light; it left no trail or streak. It moved at a steady pace high above the horizon, moving away from me, and suddenly disappeared

After getting a Chemtrail being sprayed(05/15/2018) on video. I began taking photo of planes flying over. When I looked at the photo's, I saw shiny silver Orbs in the photo's. As I took more picture's I got these Orbs in tree's and bushes all around my house, as of yesterday, I am still capturing Orb's in Photo's.

Missoula, MT
A bright yellow/orange light was seen in the sky. It appeared to be moving and changing in brightness. Upon further speculation with binoculars the shape was spherical. It appeared to have black holes that moved and changed, with golden yellow wisps surrounding the black holes. The wisps could be described as similar to roots, branches, or veins surrounding the moving black holes. A distinct eye looking feature. Very prominent black pupil with a yellow iris. This "eye" like feature moved around the sphere. One was able to see it through the sphere and when it came around to the side that was better in view. The sphere was observed by two people for about an hour with binoculars. Then the sphere shrunk in size and appeared no different than a star in the sky. The sphere moved quickly in the sky. It was observed moving through the sky at a fast pace, but not rapid. It was observed from a middle point of view in the sky moving right. After about 15 minutes, it was in the far right of the view.

I believe that it was between 10 and 11 that I’d seen the UFO as I was stargazing. It gave off the impression that it was at high-altitudes, given the object was so small I thought it was a star at first and my eyes were playing tricks on me when I’d noticed it move. It traveled at a such a slow, steady pace diagonally across the sky that I ruled out the possibility of it being a plane, along with the fact that it was just a white little orb shaped light. I followed it with my eyes for a few minutes before it stopped, blinked red twice, and disappeared. One must also note that I’d had an encounter exactly like this in February, if I can recall correctly, in the same location, only with two witnesses; myself and my brother

Niwot, CO
My fiancé and I were driving back from Boulder to Longmont on the Diagonal Hwy Monday night, I don't remember the time exactly, it was about 9pm (and I think we were technically driving through Niwot). It wasn't totally dark yet, but dark enough for the trees to appear as a mass of shadow; a small orb of yellow/orange light shot up toward the sky, directly in front of us from the highway surface, and disappeared as fast as it launched. Defined by the backdrop of shadowy trees just ahead, we are sure it was very close to us and came from the road. We both saw it, simultaneously exclaiming, "Did you see that?! What was that?!" From our vantage point I'd say the orb was about the size of grapefruit, we were traveling 55-60mph, and where it shot up from the road was about 3-5 seconds ahead of us. It vanished almost as soon as it appeared, disappearing from sight before it cleared the tree line behind it; it was a very bright and steady yellow/orange orb of light, and moved incredibly fast, such as if I had blinked when it happened I would've missed it, and it veered off a bit to the right before it vanished. Additionally, it made absolutely no sound.

Castle Rock, CO
I was with my step-daughter driving up 5th Street in Castle Rock, near where Founders Parkway intersects, when I noticed seven orb-shaped objects very high in the sky. They were too high to be kites, and definitely were not birds, since when they moved the sunlight reflected off of them. The objects appeared to be moving in concert, flowing back and forth very quickly. They were also too close together to be domestic aircraft. I took my eyes off of them after about five minutes of watching, and could not find them in the sky again. Conditions were sunny skies, temperature of 85 degrees, and clear.

At approximately 8:25 pm eastern time i was on my patio smoking a cigarette, which i do regularly. Upon looking in the sky towards the southwest. In the sky’s was a small orb very very high in the sky on the left side of the sun. Upon staring at the small particle in the sky, i knew i was not looking at a star or a plane. The small orb moved from left of the sun to right of the sun at a steady pass which also lead me to believe this was no star. I took several videos over a 20 minute period from the same angle and same location on my patio. Within 20 minutes the ufo was out of sight and was gone.

As we were driving and I was in the back seat looking at the back window I looked just above the tree line was a big red hot sphere huge hot sphere following us it was it looked like the sun it was so hot and it followed us we're doing about 45-50 mph and I'm telling my two friends in the front seat what the f is that what the f is that and they look and they say the same thing what is that what is that was his biggest fear following us and all the sudden it shoots back goes backwards without any hesitation goes back to where I think where we first had crossed its path and then came back right to to us where I can see it right out the back out the window above the tree line and then we just watch it cloak into invisible but you can still see the sphere but we want to go invisible they have the ability to just go invisible because at least 20 to 30 ft around huge red sphere glowing

Long Beach, NY
Last night at around 10pm I was laying in bed staring out the window with a view of the east end canal in Long Beach and saw two large white circular lights chasing each other back and forth at a quick speed. They were hidden within the clouds but the shape and light color were easy to see. The clouds seemed low last night because the orbs looked large. Saw them 3 times in a matter of a minute before they went away. Then about 5 minutes later just saw one traveling a bit slower and a bit farther away.

I just witnessed something unusual - 8 red lights traveling from the direction of the sunward horizon - West to East. The objects, by their action and the way the light dimmed, appeared to be at orbital altitude. They came from the West and then progressively dimmed as they traveled toward the East. What makes it unusual is that the 8 objects appeared and disappeared within a span of approximately 5 minutes. Also the red color was unusual as I am used to looking for sky junk and watching it pass overhead, but it is, in my experience, lit white by the reflected sunlight. All came from the same part of the sky in succession and were closely grouped. I don't know what to make of this but thought it unusual enough to report.

Driving on 64 (Highway 40) heading east to St Louis. A White (very bright sphere approached on the south side of highway (right side of my van) at high speed, horizontal and parallel to highway. It was not coming from above, but horizontal. No contrail or light tail behind - just an extremely bright sphere. Once it passed me, it increased its speed exponentially and reduced its size and then trailed south growing smaller and extremely faster as it disappeared, it did not curve towards the earth but veered southwardly and disappeared. Increasing in speed. No sound.

I was camping along Highway 108 on top of Sonora pass (@ 9,350 ft. elevation in the Sierra Nevada's) near Bridgeport, California, in the national forest 6/20/18. I just so happened to look up to the sky and observed a white circular 3 dimensional sphere floating along at what I thought to be about 35,000-40,000ft (possibly higher) in altitude at roughly the same speed as a airliner, and along the same flight path as previous air traffic earlier that day. It was heading northeast. I was obstructed by the forest trees so could only observe for about 5 seconds. It was completely silent, and I was really taken back by that, it actually kind of scarred me. The sphere dimensions took up about as much space as a 747. About 90 seconds later a regular airplane continued along that same flight path as noisy as they always are. 1st time seeing a UFO.

After lunch, I stopped to admire the clouds before heading into my office. That's when I observed a small, silvery sphere floating below a cloud to the northeast. This sphere rose into the cloud and I momentary lost sight of it but I'm a few seconds it dropped back out of the cloud toward a larger cloud below it. The sphere then skirted along the edge of this cloud for a bit before dropping into that cloud and disapppearing from view. During the duration of this sighting 2 commercial airliners also traversed this general area of the sky.

My Mom and I were out stargazing (with binoculars) and listening to barred owls, when we looked up and saw a spherical object moving fast from north to south. It was a solid ball of light, no flashing lights at all and no sound.

Silver-metallic sphere was tumbling/spinning as it moved south to north. I was looking out over the valley from my deck. Then it appeared out of nowhere, tumbling/spinning as it moved south to north. The sphere was moving at approximately 100 mph. Distance from where I stood to the sphere from the moment I saw it was approximately 1/2 mile. As it tumbled/spinned either it emitted a white/yellow light or it had caught the sun's rays but just for a brief moment before it traveled behind the tree line and I lost sight of it. As to its size, the best estimate I can provide is between 20-30 feet in diameter. I did notice that the shere had sections on it. The sphere did not emit sound, there was no exhaust trail, moving straight and at steady speed. Sky was clear, no haze, no cloud cover.

Saw a circular UFO while walking my dogs tonight around 8:00pm MST. Glanced up and saw a violet-turning-magenta colored circular figure (I can only explain the violet color as looking like your nails do when you're in a room that has a black light on) in the sky sitting dead still. At first I thought it may be a plane or helicopter coming straight toward me, appearing to be still, but then the object started moving to the left (eastern sky beginning at dead-center east, then slightly left of east across horizon and back). The object moved slowly to begin but glided unlike anything I have ever seen. It then stood at a dead stop once again for about 30 seconds. After this it ZIPPED QUICKLY AND UNNATURALLY to the left about an entire palms-length when held up to the horizon. After this it stood still for a moment once more, then zipped back to the right to its original position and lowered itself straight down at an unnatural speed. This happened three times and I have three separate videos of the event. Directly before recording the third video, a helicopter made a brief attempt at chasing the object (which prompted me to run into my home to grab my camera for a third recording).

My wife and I stopped at a gas station and while letting the dogs out I noticed an orb/sphere in the clouds, it caught my eye because the clouds were going by quickly yet this sphere stayed stationary. I pointing it out to several others and soon a crowd was watching this sphere flying erratically, moving in all directions. The display went on for at least 15 minutes before the craft flew up and out at an extreme rate of speed.
