Looking out at the sky I saw before me two stars that seemed to be moving but the I saw the lights changes and one of the crafts seemed to be following the dimmer one ahead of it. To the left of those two were two other crafts doing the same thing separated but following. It seemed as if between them mind you the were far apart, there seemed to be blue flashing lights with star qualities and they would pop up in different spots. I was making signals with my phone flash sos and I noticed them coming closer to my direction then before. Now it being around the time I stopped seeing them last they didn't go away as quickly and two star like ships bolted through the sky and hovered over where I was standing smoking, it persisted to stay there even with the sun rise coming up and then it was gone.

Jefferson, ME
Dear Peter; On 02/17/15 @ 10:19 a.m., I was driving on the East Pond Rd. in Jefferson, Maine, watching a “sundog” and wondering why a sundog was in the sky so early in the day. I stopped by the roadside to take a picture of it, and when I looked at the picture on my tracfone, I discovered this curious item up in the top left of the picture. I did not see it at the time that I took the picture. It is an acorn shaped object, without the cap, and if you look closely you can see two short antennae sticking out the right hand side of the object, as well as a couple of dark spots on the front right, and a square light spot on the front left of the object. Unfortunately, no one was with me at the time, but I can assure you that this is not dust, snow, or water on the lens. I am going to email this picture to you, I find this to be rather curious, and I hope it helps you, if you find it worth noting. I’m sure this sounds bizarre, but I will note that I have been watching a very old house below where this picture was taken. Every time I drive by, something seems different about the windows, curtains, and old stuff inside, which is partly visible from the road. I had just mentioned to my grandson that I was considering that the house was either haunted or that somehow someone was inside even though there are no footprints or snow plow action around the house. It probably has nothing to do with anything, but I thought you might be interested. Thank you for all you do. We have looked at the photo, and our impression is that the object probably is not a genuine UFO. Our first impression was that the object was a water droplet, given that it appears to be transparent. We do not know what the object was. PD

Mt. Hood (Parkdale), OR
I was taking pictures of the sunset. When I downloaded the pictures was when I saw the object. I took many pictures in succession and it was not in the others. The object was reflecting the setting sun. Seemed to have a main body with appendages. It appeared to be falling as it left a trail of some kind. There was one and it was white because of the reflection of the sun. I feel much of it was shaded. Some say it looks like and airplane but because the trail it left and the direction it was going that would have been very unusual. I have been a skywatcher all my life as my Dad was a pilot and was always teaching me how to identify aircraft from the ground. I have a college education and am married with two adult kids and a grandchild.

Eastvale, CA
During the moment I was waiting to see if the truck was going to take the turn when a low flying air craft slowly flew above the road heading east flying directly above the road. It was flying so slowly that I can’t imagine how it even stayed in the air; it was almost like a hover. The aircraft made no noise at all it was flying so low i should have heard the engines or something. I wanted to follow it but I turned onto the freeway thinking there is no way I just seen what I seen I couldn’t even believe it myself. I was wondering if that truck seen it and what were they thinking. The object flew directly over me, its underbelly was dark but it had three lights that were bright enough to give off the silhouette of the shape of the craft. One light was on the underbelly of the craft at the nose section is what I’m guessing and the other two on the corners of what I guess would be the wings of the craft. It was a triangular craft but the back end was like a v and it had lights streaming back and forth like the lights on kit from knight rider except the lights were bright white. I don't know how it could of been close to the area without being detected when there is an Air Force base close by and a naval satalite building and a Marine armory. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

I will have to fill out two reports, because I was lucky enough to witness both events. Ufo Sighting First Report. I was traveling down Elkhorn Rd., heading away from Aliante Station Casino. To the north above the mountains there was at first what I thought was a large fireball from a meteor. I realized it wasn't because it was stationary. After about 5-10 seconds it turned off. We turned the car towards that direction, and it reappeared. I estimate this object to be 5 to 6 football fields, we couldn't see what the object was, but almost like an energy field of plasma, and it was rotating. And then after about 15-20 seconds it disappeared. I then dropped my sons off and proceeded to drive south. The second event someone actually got on video. Please review second report titled "UFO Sighting Second Report". Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Huntington, WV
This is technically not a UFO because I know what it was. It was just very unusual to see. Two Chinook twin roater helicopters were flying overhead. There are usually helicopters but never these ones. Just kind of wondering what they were doing. Not sure if this is the correct site to use or not.

Wesley Chapel, FL
Not sure. Had blinking lights...red, and some other. Could not tell. Was floating in air dropping and swaying and jolting left to right. Possible "twinkling" star?? We spoke via telephone with the witness, and have encouraged to look at the same area of the sky, at the same time of night, when they have a clear sky in that area of Florida. PD

Roswell, GA
While taking pictures in middle of a nature trail in Big Creek Park in Roswell, Georgia, I saw a odd, high-altitude craft, probably around 60,000 ft. The craft looks quite amusing, shaped like bunch of balloons, colored blue and white with and red glows. It stood still at first, then slowly moved, slowly enough that I could take a picture of it. However, due to the fact it is very high up in the sky, after a minute and a half or so, I either lost track of it or it simply disappeared. Note: Although object looks like a bunch of balloons, the object was too high in the sky, too fast at times, and too erratic in movement to be a bunch of balloons released by children.

Hollywood, FL
There was a brown object floating in the sky. At first, we thought it was a paper bag but it was moving entirely way too fast to be anything drifting (Also there was very little to no wind). Dog started acting strange.

Durham, NH
Looked Like a HUGE star that was really low over the sky, flew straight overhead of Middle of Durham, NH. I was walking my dog down woodman road, looked up and coming from nowhere suddenly looked like A star was SUPER low flying at a medium speed overhead. No blinking no multiple lights just as if a star had dropped down low and was floating over my head heading East. I watched it fly over head for about thirty seconds and as it got a little past the spot where I was actually standing it just faded to nothing. Absolutely did not go over tree line or fly so far it seemed as if i could not see it any more. It was right over head and low and just disappeared. CRAZIEST thing I have ever seen!!

Perris, CA
weird lights in Perris. I walked out of the house and looked to the left to see what looked like two sets of 5 lights, the top light on each side would go off and on same time and the whole thing moved left and right. I know the top of that hill I have been up there. There are no homes there for about a mile or so. If you could imagine a string going vertical 15 feet up with 5 red lights on it and then another string same as the first with the same 5 red lights on it about 5 feet apart is how I can kinda describe it. here is the youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkQgn2r92OQ&feature=youtu.be

Dupo, IL
I took my dogs out @ 5:15 am 2/05/2015. I saw a huge bright light in the sky, just hovering in the direction of Columbia, Illinois. After about 3 or 4 minutes it came towards me. As I looked up at it when it flew over me going west it was shaped like the Columbia space shuttle the bottom was all white lights and there were green and blue lights on the back end of the craft. I could hear the roar of the engine, as it was loud like the space shuttles would be. It was flying low enough that I could make out the shape and see all the lights on the bottom of the craft. I wish I had taken my camera outside I will tomorrow.

Tucson, AZ
WHILE LOOKING AT FLOCK OF BIRDS I NOTICED AN OBJECT (LIGHTS?) JUST ABOVE OR WITHIN THE OUTLINE OF A SADDLE IN THE TUCSON MOUNTAINS. ALL RED AND WHITE LIGHTS WITH NO GREENS OR FLASHING LIGHT, AND NO SOUNDS. A SMALLER OBJECT SEEMED TO GO NEXT TO OR IN FRONT OF LARGER LIGHT. THEN A SMALL OBJECT STREAKED AWAY UP AND TO THE RIGHT THEN ENDED WITH A BRIGHT FLASH. THIS WAS REPEATED TWICE AGAIN, SAME DIRECTION, TRAILS AND ENDING WITH FLASH. SEVERAL LOCAL FLIGHTS OF LIGHT AIRCRAFT FLEW IN THE DIRECTION BUT THEN TURNED BACK DURING THIS TIME. MY WIFE CAME OUT TO LOOK BUT ONLY SAW THE LARGER LIGHT AND NOT THE SMALLER ONES. THE BARRY GOLDWATER FIREING RANGE IS IN THIS DIRECTION...BUT TWO MOUNTAIN RANGES SEPERATE THEM FROM MY HOME BY 60 + MILES....LIVE FIRE? MAYBE AND I HAVE SEEN TWO OTHER UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS... I WONDER IF THERE IS A NEW HELICOPTER BEING TESTED...? ATMOSPHERE ACTING AS LIGHT BENDER? I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS BUT IT WAS FANTASTIC TO SEE!

Virginia Beach, VA
My husband was outside with our dog and he came in to get me and said he seen an unusual light in the Eastern sky. I grabbed the camera and went out to confirm what he and I were now witnessing~ We both witnessed an object that was rotating and changing colors. It would move close and then further away. There was no sound and we could not see the shape, only a light. By this time I was taking pictures, as well as a short video. We watched the object for about 20 minutes and then went in because it was very cold and my camera was cold. The object was still there when we went inside. I uploaded the pictures to the computer and we could not believe what we saw! The main craft was hard to see, more of a hazy mass, but within this mass, we could see very clearly 4 spheres/balls within the object. There may have been more. Only by enlarging the pictures could we see any kind of shape. We of course, have the memory card as proof. My husband and I have been watching the skies for many years and we make it a point to go out on clear nights to look at celestial events as well as for UFOs. For the last few years I have been president of the UFO Club Of Virginia. We are sending the best of the pictures to you.

Solromar, CA
Observed an object that, at first, appeared to be an instrumentation balloon. Vertical configuration of a mass "suspended" below three bright, what appeared to be rotating, or flashing alternating primary colors, R-G-B in random duration and speed. These were not aircraft strobe lights. Too bright at that range and not a discharge flash. From my position on PCH highway, I first noticed it at a bearing of about 15 degrees and a few seconds of observation revealed it to be apparently drifting to north-northwest laterally at approximately 8500 to 9000 feet altitude. Observed craft for 11 to 12 minutes until it "drifted" to a bearing of about 385 degrees, flashing colors alternately, randomly, with no obvious apparent relation between the three active parts of the craft. Observed Southwest Airlines SFO to SDiego flight at cruise altitude clearly behind this craft as it passed behind the craft in my field of view. At about 12:15 it changed direction of motion to the northest and picked up speed linearly and went behind Boney Mountain out of view. No sound other than the low rumble of Southwest Airlines. I estimate the speed to have been about 200 knots and increasing when it went out of view. 35 year Aeronautical Engineer, Flight Test Engineer/Pilot. 10X25 binoculars. Clear, sunny, cool.

Marana, AZ
The night of the super bowl the wife and I heard jets that were flying at FULL MILITARY. I went out doors and saw them, with afterburners on, flying south towards Tucson. Just over, the jets crossed and returned North. A few seconds later they all went South and out of site beyond Tucson. I stated to wife they must be chasing something,,,, I saw nothing of what they were after because the next door's security lights came on and obscured any detail. I am making this report after reading the report from Mesa that same night. I am in support of the "Chase," but cannot say I saw any UFO. I do know jets do not fly like THAT, full military over civilian areas without good cause. There is a gunnery range about 60 miles west of Tucson. There have been odd things in the southern Arizona skies for several weeks. I have reported several but it's my first reports.

Webster, TX
Wife and I observed a light streak which looked similar to the star trek transporter…(that’s the best description I can give) approximately 10 foot in length.. Vertically positioned. Elevation 50 yards high. Movement initiated from top then moved down. The emitting light was silver with a shimmering ball coming down in middle of two parallel lighted lines. Sounds crazy but we saw this. Location was on Interstate 45 southbound …the light appeared approximate a 100 yards in front of us as we were driving on the freeway. We both saw this. I then saw this again from the backyard of my home. I live by Ellington Field Airport. Duration of this was 15 seconds, then it disappeared. Witness indicates that the date is approximate. PD

Large bright star shaped object that remained stationary in the western sky for over an hour, and when observed with binnoculars. It resembled a comet with three tails!

Highlany, NY
On January 27, 2015, I was looking out the window of our third floor apartment, when right in the tree line, I saw a black object, completely smooth in texture, seem to glide down towards the ground. It was larger than a bird and smaller than a car and was the same shape as a sneaker from the rear right side. I watched the object for a few seconds until it was out of view, down in thick trees. This occurred in Clintondale, NY, and the craft seemed to be near the church and cemetery
