Franklin, LA
Walked out of the house. Looked in the sky and saw one huge object with about 6 green circular lights and a centered red light above the green lights. The green lights were so pretty. The object was traveling northeast. I saw the object from the back. In about seconds the object seem like it was 10 miles away. I saw it make a sharp left turn at a slow pace then gradually speed up and instantly came to a stop. The object did not tilt while turning. Then made a super fast right turn at an alarming speed not seen before and fell down. It popped back up, took off, then disappeared before my eyes

I recently purchased a pair of Celestron Skymaster 15x70 Binoculars. I'm amazed how it cuts through light pollution. While sitting on my swing and looking up at stars a T-Formation came into view. At first it looked solid but it had individual squarish looking objects in it. There were no lights but they had a almost tan/luminescent color to them against the dark sky. As I lowered my binoculars I still saw the T- formation as it went behind some trees I stood up but the horizon was blocked by more trees. At first I thought these were geese but I've never seen birds fly in a T formation that huge and travel so quickly. The flew like they knew where they were going. Through the binoculars and without they were in a perfect formation and it did look like, possibly, they were part of a T. It reminded me of those huge formations sighted in space. I would put the size as a ruler put at arms length. Travelling fast like a T at eleven o'clock. Much higher than passenger aircraft. Possibly in space. A slight aura around the whole T-formation.

I live on the southwest corner of Palmetto and Lyons road. Tonight around 6:30 I was looking southwest and saw two orange lights in the sky hovering. They were there for about 5 minutes then both did a type of loop de loop and in under a second they seemed to shoot SSW. approximately 25 miles away. 1-2 minutes later it came right back to the original place that I saw it first. Next it shot the same direction away what looked like 100 miles away. 2 minutes later they were gone. They were definitely not airplanes, helicopters, blimp, etc. About 3 minutes after they left a military helicopter flew right over me in the direction that the 2 objects went.

I was out on my balcony smoking cigarette when I saw a green illuminating light keep flashing at first I thought it was one of those big spot lights that businesses use to advertise but this was moving south of 44th...then I seen what at first I thought was a lite up parachute because it was sorta bouncing in the air....they looked to be about a mile apart from each other...I did video it on my phone...I watched for about 15 mins and the came inside...an hour later my son in law came home and I showed him but this time the green light was now behind trees at distant that I could not see it all the way...but the parachute light up object had moved to directly west of 44th I was able to video that also.

Phenix City, AL
Its movement was similar to a hockey puck on an air hockey table. No sound and when it was directly overhead it seemed cloaked to mimic the clouds. Moon light kept its shape visible. The altitude was similar to plane height at air show planes. Craft was visible for approximately 30 seconds.

Watkinsville, GA
When almost completely dark out, we saw a brief, bright yellowish flash with the shape of a check mark or horizontal crescent. It appeared just above the tree line and vanished at or below the tree line. It appeared in the northwest sky and seemed to be about 15 miles away from us. We were on the East end of Ward Rd.

Very loud boom heard all over the city. Woke a lot of people up. Describe as very loud boom and noise shook the structure they were standing in. Sounded like a sonic boom.

One neighbor thought the plane appeared to have its cargo bay open. No news or report of the flight locally.

It was late in the evening in October of 2014, and i had been drinking a little whiskey with neighbors and my roommates when we witnessed a gigantic craft of unimaginable size being escorted by what seemed to be military helicopters headed towards the nuclear plant located about thirty miles from our home in Benton City, Washington. We live in a small town near the Hanford nuclear facility, one of the places used by the Manhattan Project to create the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki at the end of the second war. It is not uncommon to see helicopters in the sky and an occasional jet flying over the city, usually headed from or going to the "Area" as we call it, but that night it was extremely windy with very little visibility and a blanket of clouds covering the sky. The helicopters were not visible but very audible and drew us out into the yard to look at the sky. At first we saw nothing but clouds and fog but then we noticed the red light and it app! eared to be similar to the light of a plane and another in front and another in back and we saw the sky above us moving. The craft was at least a few thousand feet long and the largest craft I have ever seen in the night sky. We were shocked. Called another neighbor and they saw it too. It was amazing and it was heading north east towards the base at the Hanford area and the craft blocked out the sky above us. We went inside and didn't speak again about what we saw until two weeks later when we saw it again a second time and this time it was about 20 miles from our home viewed from the front porch and it blocked out the mountain, Rattlesnake Mountain, the tallest and largest treeless hill in north America. It almost looked like a battleship that was meant to be on the water but it was in the sky. Think star wars battleship cruiser. Blocked the mountain out. Incredible! We saw it twice! Strangest thing i have ever seen and the biggest ship I have ever seen since. But every night, there is a bright "star" that shines brighter than all the others and moves in irregular orbit across our sky. I have pictures and there is a second star, half the size of the first and it moves irregularly as well. I believe that we have low orbit satellites in our skies every night. There is no other explanation I can stipulate, I call the large one the "death star". Everyone agrees in my community that star is irregular. I always say "that's not a star." And I have photos of it moving in the sky. Thank you for reading my account. This is my first report. I will report if I see anything else. I have images of ufos in the skies of eastern Washington and I wish I had a picture of the giant ship I saw, but I was too shocked to think straight. There is no place like this. A reptilian presence and it goes back as far as the Indian legends of the warm springs tribe of Mabton. Thank you again for reading. And may the Spirit keep you from harm. We spoke via telephone with the source of the report, and he assures us that the report is submitted as a serious account of what he witnessed. He will have the other witnesses submit additional reports. PD

Recently, I started to smoke a tobacco pipe, and out of consideration for those that can't stand the smell, made a concerted effort to go out to a field/creek nearby. I stand and wait just to bide time, and was drawn to observe the usual nighttime activity of plane sightings. Observing the smoke from the pipe, and even watching out for passing vehicles driving to and from their homes so as not to draw unwanted suspicion, I would resume from ducking down and proceed as usual. Considering I was observant of regular vehicles, likewise I was somewhat inclined to turn around suddenly and witness a somewhat traditional shaped aircraft. First I must note that this was within a very short distance from where I was standing, in a sloped field near an incline roughly 10-15 feet deep, with clear observation of the surrounding area, and somewhat isolated/localized sound observation. Clean and clear night with a bright moon, and perfect visibility, with or without corrective lenses. Within the span of several seconds I was able to observe what immediately seemed out of place, was not only a craft that appeared to be propelled by an alternative (plasma?) energy compared to a jet engine, but seemed to have an audible and noticeable hum as it propelled itself, though seemingly akin to the light noise of a motorcycle's rotary engine. It seemed stationary in the sky as I looked up, and very clearly seemed to speed off ("impossibly" fast) upon first being noticed, only to very clearly disappear from sight. No cloud coverage was present, and this craft could not have disappeared simply from having flown out of ! view, or behind coverage of a building or cloud. As far as the shape of the craft, I thought it seemed smooth bodied but perhaps similar to traditional aircraft; though I did not notice any wings on it. Perhaps oval shaped, with engines that lit up but seemed to "swirl" with light, giving off a noticeable acceleration with greater illumination, and an almost purr-like quiet hum, seemingly difficult to notice if I wasn't already looking up at it (the sound did not draw my attention, and I honestly don't know why I turned around when I did.) I stared up at the sky dumbfounded and asking myself "what the F was that?" over and over again. It seemed to arch upwards at an angle and turned as it accelerated away from me, with what could have been an instantaneous 1000+ mph, as it disappeared. Noticing criteria for close encounters, I do tend to wonder if it could be possible such a thing was in progress; although I don't necessarily believe I have been a victim of such an event. Prior sighting I had was several years ago (apx 9/2012?) in nearly the same spot (I was driving home and had arrived around 10:15pm) and despite knowing what I was looking at, I wasn't startled. It was a pitch dark triangle with three observable clean white lights on all three underside corners (similar to what has been described in the Aurora UFO project by USAF but without the central engine "light" in the middle. It was an overcast of clouds and the ufo remained perfectly stationary below the cloud coverage. I loop the vehicle around to park along the street to get out, and noticed it was gone. Looking back I know I should have just stopped in the middle of the street and observed for awhile.

Around 10:30p.m. as my wiife and I witnesses as we watched the sky to the west.From the northwest beyound the treeline we watched five seperate red-orande object rose above the trees one after another, at one point two object were in view at the same time Headed south across the sky, one after those seemed to dim and go down behind the trees, near straight down. As it left view another moved up and across the horizon with a fifth and last light appearing the same way and from the same direction, move south until it was out of view. It is hard to say a distance. The objects made no noticeable sound and did not blink. They almost appeared to be two lights on top of each other. My wife videoed the last two. I used a 25x rifle scope to try and view the light source. I only saw a light halo the color blending with the sky surrounding each light. They moved more rapidly and one went down over then back up in a way I've never seen any airplane or helicopter could move to my knowledge. It was similar to the Marfa lights only they came up and went out of view in the same manner as if following each other in very timed manner other than the third which looked to dim and move straight down, though as soon as we lost sight of it, the fourth appeared and continued as the first two. Used to seeing planes. Very different. A treeline and western sky were our view.Sorry, strange lights moved a cross the sky.

Frederick, MD
I was smoking a cigarette on my third floor balcony and noticed a bright light that was flickering to my southeast. I came in and picked up my camera and started to film the light. Through the camera I was able to see different colors flickering within the bright light. It seems as though you could see some type of structure within the light. The light got really bright then just faded away.

At approximately 22:15, I saw The silouette of what appeared to be be a flying wing shaped craft with no lights and no sound, move north to south across the sky, before fading out of sight.

Waverly, OH
I saw a bright orange object witha black cross through it in the eastern sky. It looked like a brightly lit window in the sky. It stayed there still for a few minutes then disappeared. I waited there for about 5 minutes to see if it would show up again. Then a plane came through the area and when it got to where the orange light was a bright cresent shaped object appeared above it for just about 5 seconds and then disappeared. The plane just kept on flying in a southwestern direction. Just for comparison the international space station flew over about 10 minute later and both previous object were way brighter it. They both were the brightest objects in the sky.

Canton, NY
The four of us saw, in the sky out of the car windows a number of bright lights blinking around a circle of bright light, the center was light red and flashing, the object was moving and when we pulled over we could hear jets near and around the object as if they were tracking the UFO. As we heard the jet sound and watched the UFO, it went away from us and it was no longer visible.

Downtown Norfolk, VA
2 Miles before going through the downtown tunnel right next to the Portsmouth Naval Medical center, while driving I saw a silver trapezoid shape (not shinning) floating above some tall buildings It seemed to be far behind the buildings. It called my attention because it wasn't moving at all so i kept observing it to confirm it wasn't an aircraft since the airport is nearby and the military air base is close by as well. 3 seconds before it disappeared it flashed bright white (maybe sun reflection) and then swirled in an upward motion and vanished.

Cardiff by the Sea, CA
trio of lights (red, green, white) close formation in the southwestern sky above ocean half mi. from shore. They dipped down & appeared to skim the surface of water rapidly in a zig-zag pattern. Then they took a diagonal path towards the shore & came within 10 yds. of the beach-very fast-stopped briefly-returned to where they first came down, zig-zagging rapidly & flew back up to where I first saw them in the sky, where they appeared to hover, then disappeared.

Four bright lights observed in the sky forming a straight line with each light disappearing one by one from left to right until they were gone. Craft did not seem to be moving in any way.

Cypress, TX
It headed a north direction with circular/Short cylinder shape.. It had a Red/Orange color all around (almost like fire) it never blinked and it kept itself illuminated the entire duration. No audible sound was heard or created, it had a controlled speed (not super fast almost floating like gravitating towards the north). Distance wise it appeared to be much closer than commercial air-crafts that also flew around the space. After we lost sight of the unknown flying object we stayed out to see if there could possible be more but none others were seen.

Chico, CA
I woke up to use the restroom around 2:30 AM and upon my return to bed my wife said she saw a three lighted object in the sky. I looked at where she was pointing and noticed three lights moving up and down then side to side in a lazy slower way. The lights were yellow in color and a little bigger than a big star in the sky. They would grow brighter then fade almost to nothing. They were parallel to the horizon, in a line with each other, and close together. I grabbed my binoculars and steadied them to the side if the window pane to get a closer look. Upon seeing them I also noticed four fainter light "beams" emitting from the UFO in a direction of NE. SE. EW. SW. We were both excited to see our first UFO and thought it wouldn't happen again but to both of our surprises it happened again last night, (10/24/14) which is why I am writing this report. I got smarter and while it was happening last night I download a night sky app to see where in the sky I was seeing it. The lights were in between Jupiter and the star Algeiba. It has happened around the same time for two nights as far as we noticed. Hope someone else sees them one night too! Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
