Quakertown, PA
As I was pulling into my girlfriend's neighborhood, and I finally parked my car, I witnessed a flashing object out of my rearview mirror. I got out of my car and began video taping this UFO the size of three football fields. The light blinked and flickered in an abnormal pattern the craft changed direction and had a tail that was connected over my girlfriend's house. The space craft than disappeared under a cloud and I slowly watched it disintegrate under the cloud as if it was leaving through a vortex. As the object was hovering over my car in disappearance the object was triangular diamond shaped, and covered all of the stars in the sky from my view.

Stockton, CA
On Thanksgiving dusk, I was with my inlaws in the back yard of their house in Stockton Ca. I was telling them oddly enough about a documentary about aliens - when I stopped mid sentence having noticed the orange orb in the sky that seemed to appear out of nowhere. I alerted my inlaws and they got up and saw the same thing. It was glowing brightly and was orange red. It was maybe 15000 feet, silently moved across the sky for about 1 minute. My inlaws and myself watched it until it suddenly disappeared. It seemed to be heading south west. I fumbled trying to get my phone out and take a picture or video, but I couldn’t get it out in time before the Orb was gone.

Spanaway, WA
I was heading down 224th in Spanaway going from West to East at 11:41pm tonight, while talking on the phone to my husband. Out of nowhere, a bit to the left, there was a huge red ball falling at a high rate of speed. It looked like a huge red falling star, or a beyond huge flare. It wasn't blinking, or changing color, just huge and bright red sphere/ball falling from the sky heading East. It wasn't a plane, or helicopter, as there is a little airport close to where it was, but it was going beyond that and looked like it was going to land in the Classic Golf Course in Spanaway area, or a bit North of the golf course. I have never seen anything like it. It lit the sky like noting else I have ever seen. The car in front of me slowed way down and I was yelling at my husband to hurry up and go outside to look at it. Tried to find my phone, but couldn't in time.

Pierce, CO
I was sitting in my living room and decided to open the front door for fresh air when I noticed a dull grey spherical shaped object slowly moveing through the sky about a mile away in a south western direction. There was no sound that I could hear comeing from the object. The object stopped abruptly in mid air, then zipped away super fast in a northern direction, there was no noise when this happened. I didnt see the object again after this time, however about an hour later my windows started rattling as a single bladed black helicopter that was flying sort of low made about 6 large clockwork circles over our town. After about 10 minutes of this I started hearing a bunch of sirens coming north up highway 85 of which my home is about 1000 feet from. I walked down our street to see what was going on when a convoy of about 15 to 20 tan armored military vehicles passed by. There was one vehicle that was blue in the middle of the convoy that looked like some kind of truck with a camper like shell with a door on the back. The convoy where traveling at about 50 miles an hour maybe faster. After the vehicles passed I saw the black helicopter make another pass between Pierce and Nunn before i lost sight of it.

Medicine Park, OK
Stepped outside of my mom's & noticed a flashing light changing colors considerably brighter than any of the stars around it. It didn't really seem to be moving from the general area it was in, (like a plane or other aircraft wld.) It basically stayed in same general area.. Sighting of Sirius?? PD

San Clemente, CA
At 4:00PM on Monday 11/20/2017, I was driving through San Clemente, CA. on US Highway 5. Passing Exit 78 (Camino de Estrella), I noticed an aerial object in the northwest sky, brightly reflecting the soon to be setting sun. The object was northwest of me, at about 30 degrees above the horizon, perhaps over San Juan Capistrano. I observed this object without interruption for about three seconds, during which time it appeared motionless in front of the distant clouds. The apparent shape was like a brilliant white bb with an apparent diameter of about 2mm. My viewing was interrupted by a tree passing through the line of sight, after which the object was nowhere to be seen. The nearest METAR data from John Wayne airport (about 25 miles northwest of my position) recorded visibility as 10 statute miles and a few clouds at 15000 feet. If the line-of-sight distance to the object was 5 miles, then it would have had a diameter of about 75 feet and been at an elevation somewhat above 10,000 feet. Its near-instantaneous disappearance eliminates the possibility of either a reflective balloon or aircraft.

Floating silver/white 3D ball. It was there, and then shrunk and disappeared in seconds

Henderson, NV
Object was traveling on a east to west trajectory. It seemed like a meteor in very low atmosphere entry, but object was perfectly round, with a very bright pure white streak as the orb appeared at the end of the streak on a very smooth and sharp motion. As if generated by a CGI system, although this happened in our eyesight over the southern part of Henderson near Highway 15. Flights going into Mcarran (LAS) were seen on approach at a lower altitude, flights seemed to be headed towards Lake Mead for their final turn and approach before landing, at the vantage point, it seemed object was 5 times the size of a Boeing 737. Object had very sharp and defined edges within the white streak of light, no debris field behind or around its side. Upon its final light emission a brilliant white orb could be seen at its end and light completely disappeared as if by a light switch, without any prior change is its coloration or brilliance. I have seen meteors showers, meteors, comets, and an avid astronomy amateur. Most people would dismiss it as a lone meteor or space debris, this object showed no hallmarks of being either.

Dear Sir, I am submitting this video (also on YouTube) in an effort to get it analysed for optical anomalies. By by I was unaware of this during filming and still shots. Ft Note deer running off in background. The footage although not witnessed by the photographer at the time, doesn't seem to be related to the panning movements of the camera. There are also "sparks" in amongst the grass some of which are apparently in shaded areas during the sunset. At one point the object seems to illuminate the surrounding area. In the still there are at least three "blobs" underneath the main object which first is seen to the right of the sun, then in the second shot it is above the sun and appears to a darker form above it. I was wondering if it isn't an optical aberation, if it might be something stranger. This event, if a real strange phenomenon occured during a police search for a missing person who unfortunately had passed on and was discovered in the undergrowth in this vicinity. Just to add, many people love and cherish this person always. Any educated views (optics expertise/ ufology/ orbs?) would be greatly appreciated. I posted a precis of my previous UFO experiences on a well know Canadian site, and know the former group captain who posted his sighting of the cross of Lorraine shaped UFO seen by another witness in Aquitiri, Cyprus, in 1974 (also on your site). I don't mind you knowing my details if I can help. Regard and thanks based in Bournemouth, UK. Sent from my Huawei Mobile

Long Beach, CA
I was walking home (West) after watching a movie, there was a marine layer over head so I could not see any stars. Out of the right corner of my eye there was a what appeared to be a street light high about. I didn't think much other then a helicopter was approaching. As the light started to get bigger. As soon as I focused in the light jumped a crossed the sky under the marine layer about a mile in 1 second. In the process what actually caught my attention was when it moved across it lit up bright green, what appeared to be green flames with small sparks at the bottom. I could not make out a shape of the craft other then an orb. It then stopped becoming stationary, that's when my mind was trying to figure out what had just happened. I pulled my iPhone out and filmed. The object was no longer green but yellowish/white moving slowly south west. When it suddenly vaporized as if it went behind a curtain in the sky.

Salt Lake City, UT
Observed a red orb descend from 3 white lights that maneuvered into a triangle in the western sky of downtown Salt Lake. The orb made a vertical descent, with an instantaneous stop and 90 change of direction to the north. Another instant stop and course reversal to the south. It stopped and started "dancing". It then descended vertically into the ground. For one full week, I was certain this encounter was extraterrestrial. However, exactly one week later, on the 19th of December at dusk, I identified with a $1000 pair of binoculars a recreational drone doing similar maneuvers 1-2 blocks west of my condo. My condo is on the 5th floor and has over 20 feet of 8 foot floor to ceiling windows facing the west. I am only submitting this report to augment a similar report filed about an incident in Salt Lake on Dec 17. If the address of that report is anywhere near my location in Salt Lake there is a high probability that someone is flying a drone illegally in the 1100 E. 100 S. area of Salt Lake City. I believe they may be intentionally trying to simulate unidentified aerial phenomena.

Estes Park, CO
My husband and I were seated in our living room, in the dark, shortly before 6 PM. Our chairs face generally north, overlooking what is called “Lumpy Ridge” in Estes Park, CO. He asked me if I saw the red light over the ridge, which brought my attention to it. He watched it move quickly west, then east, and it came to a stop as I spotted it. It hovered for several seconds, then sped off to the east and disappeared from our windows’ view. My spouse commented that it was too high and moved too fast to be a plane, a drone, a helicopter. In addition, he said he saw no light except the red (the entire object was red). His understanding is that FAA approved aircraft had to have different colored lights on port, starboard, and at the rear. If this one had those, we would have seen lights with colors other than red as it turned directions. Instead, we only saw the one color, which would indicate that it was flying back and forward without turning, and he could not imagine a craft that could do that. Looked too high and fast to be a drone purchased off Amazon. Not sure what we saw, and if my husband’s impressions about required lighting on approved crafts is accurate. First time we’ve seen something like this.

North Bend, WA
This was seen very clearly and was coming from the north, heading in a southwestern direction. What I saw was a very bright light moving, like if it was landing lights on an airliner, it was moving slow but bright, as I started to really look at it, it then started to move faster and started to change from 1 to 2 then 3 and finally 4 bright orbs or light's. These light's then changed direction from the first and what I would describe as the first or main light, they moved in a downward and away to the right (my right, the left of the main orb) but then they started to move in an upward direction. Unfortunately from my angle they flew behind a peak of a mountain range that is just north of my location. I never saw them come out the other side.

Livingston, MT
Just after midnight, on 11/12/2017, I took my dog outside. I noticed red, blue and green pulsating lights in the South Eastern sky over Mount Livingston. The object was stationary and did not move. I retrieved my field glasses and viewed the sphere like object. At one point the object seemed to have an opening in the bottom. The intermittent light pulsated red, blue, green for the 15 minutes that I observed it. The object seemed to have different sized craters over the whole surface with the lights pulsating from it about every second. Witness later reports object was star, Sirius. PD

St. Petersburg, FL
I see these every few days because I watch the planes flying by as I sit outside. This was a bright globe that appeared miles above the planes of which I saw 3 to 4 planes around 10 to 20k ft. This globe appeared miles above them with a bright flash then like a whip shot across from west to east making no sound then disappeared. The shear speed was faster than anything we could’ve produced. No rockets no 3D image nothing could’ve replicated this speed. White orb shooting as if a short pulse on its way through dimensions.

I saw 3 lights they occured at different times in the sky one of them moved around then disapeared. The sun was about to set it was still very light outside so it couldn't of been a plane or star. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Boise, ID
My friend and I were just driving back from Stanley, coming up on Boise just outside of Horseshoe Bend. All of a sudden, we see this green orb shoot straight down from the sky and disappear directly above the Eagle/Boise area. There was no tail so we don't think it was a meteor.. I'm hoping someone else saw it also! We also discussed it being a plane perhaps, but the light was wag bigger than anything a plane would have.

San Francisco, CA
Spherical shaped craft, seemed to have hexagons all over the inside that seemed to light up red. There was a feeling of intense gravity, as if I were way heavier than normal, and like something was pushing down on me. It came down and surrounded my whole location and stayed there for 6 hours or so. When these navigate around they are blue grey and black in color and seem to be plasma and variable size. This was near the Eagle's Point Labyrinth along the pacific trail. Associated with these are smaller triangular craft with three red lights on the bottom that trail two fibers behind them. This was early Monday morning. We attempted to contact the source of the report, but the telephone number is non-functional. We strongly suspect a hoax, in light of the content of the report. PD

Moreno Valley, CA
I was in my backyard when I seen a circular red sold orb looking object no port or starboard lights no white light slowing approaching from south to north going toward San Bernardino. Then red solid orb then stopped and hovered about 1500 ft guessing above some houses for about 5 min, another known aircraft with port and starboard lights flying below but on the path of it went in front of it and the red orb lights flashed off and then on as if to indicate it wanted to be seen then after about 1 min it proceeded south bound toward Perris, CA, and then landed where it appeared to be around Lake Perris, CA, mountain area.
