Me and my friends stood in front of our street, a humid street with no cars coming at the time we just sat down and started staring at it because of how beautiful it was, I have seen many other ufos before with my family in my life but this one was different, it was going in circles and it was clear, like you could actually see that it wasn't a drone, or anything humans could imagine making of. The BOOMERANG-shaped object was always shining with faded colors of a rainbow, like a LED light that just shows faded colors if you know what I mean, I have one that's why I can relate easily. I noticed that the UFO had kind of a transparent tail that at the end of it was a shiny red light and it was flashing. The object flew around itself for 10 minutes went up and down in altitude and changed direction a few times and just went in circles and up and down, and it was always flashing with that faded colors, it was like a dream!

Independence, MO
Today, March 16, 2019, at approximately 4:40pm cst, a fleet of between 30 and 50 extremely high altitude Y wing aircraft/spacecraft, was spotted heading east above Independence, MO. Was looking right up where they were flying over, but would have never even seen them had the sun not gleaned off of them at the perfect angle, reflecting mostly blue flashes of light. They had no trails, were shaped like a skinny Y and seemed to be able to maneuver sideways and even stop in place. I honestly thought we were being invaded. I ((one word deleted)) u not. Either I just saw us moving a LARGE fleet of secret space force vehicles or the alien ship armada has arrived.

Gold\yellow Chevron-shaped something was seen in the North East horizon, approximately at a 10 o'clock placement to the Earth if there Earth were at 6 and directly overhead was a 12. It traveled from East to the West covering the entire horizon in a matter of 10 seconds. It traveled faster than anything that humanly exist. It was very big. The size of the Moon on any given average night. It was a Chevron-shaped, triangle with another triangle offset directly behind and the triangle behind tip of triangle splitting the middle of the one in front. Never seen any thing like it and no question of it possibly belonging to this planet. Absolutely not of this world. Moved faster than any thing we have on this planet. Unbelievably fast. One horizon to the other (East to West) in a matter of less than 10 seconds. We have attempted to contact the source of the report, in order to establish the correct date of the sighting. PD

I was walking my dog. I looked up in the sky and noticed a boomerang-shaped metallic object flying low, it made no noise as it moved. There were no lights but I could still tell it had a metallic aura. The object was flying back and forth then left to right. It held its position for a few seconds after about 10 seconds into watching it. All of a sudden it started flying at a really fast rate of speed. I could no longer see it within 5 seconds.

I was outside viewing the lunar eclipse around midnight. To the south of the moon I saw movement and there were approximately 8-10 faint white lights in a circle. There were some clouds so maybe they were behind them. They were really high in the sky and I thought from their angular shape they were birds at first. They flew in formation and each light peeled away from the ring and made a spiral in the sky, like drawing a number 9, then disappeared. It all happened within a minute or so. I kept looking to see if I could see them again, but they were gone.

I was standing in front of my house watching the lunar eclipse when I became aware of a chevron shaped object in my peripheral vision, moving southwest to northeast. It was black with no lights and I was only aware of it because it was a bit darker than the sky because of the full moon. As it traveled across the sky, there was the faintest of sounds, but it wasn’t the sound of an engine or any thing like that. It was the sound of air being pushed out of the way, like if you were spinning something heavy in a circle using a rope. It traveled across the sky as far as I could see southwest to as far as I could see northeast before disappearing across the rooftops. I have no idea about the size because I couldn’t judge altitude. It appeared to be large and far away, not small and close. It travelled about 3 miles in 8-10 seconds, which would mean a speed of over 1000mph, but there was no sonic boom. I’m a 52 year old software developer with pilot training and good eyesight. I have no idea what I saw. Definitely not a plane, not a drone. Not a flock of birds.

We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he sounded to us to be quite sober-minded. We suspect that he is a quite reliable, and qualified, witness. PD

I am a home health PTA and I was going to see a patient in their home. As I was leaving my housing development, I saw five flickering lights in the sky that appears to me to be over Lackland AFB. I pulled over to watch, but did not get pictures or video. The lights were in a chevron shape and this did not change so I assume it was one object. I did not see a physical craft or dark shape the lights were connected to. I am an Air Force veteran and former San Antonio police officer, I see C5's flying overhead all the time as Lackland AFB is the training facility for this large plane. Even when a C5 is flying over the base 12 miles away, you can make out that it is a plane. The object I saw was only lights that flickered like a silver mylar balloon would in the wind reflecting the sun. There was no pattern between the five lights, but the distance between them remained constant. I watched for maybe a couple of minutes and it banked to my left in a northern direction. Then then flickered out and I did not see them again.

There was a cloud layer as well. The clouds were fairly low that night. Only reason I even saw it and was able to make out its shape. I was standing outside and staring out into the sky as I do many nights. The flying V just happened to cross in my field of view and caught my attention. It was visible for about 10 seconds before I lost track of it in the dark. No lights at all at any point, and no sound! Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Was out running, looked up and saw a dead silent chevron or boomerang shaped craft with no lights. It looked like a very graceful, gigantic bird gliding slowly from east to west. After seeing it the first time I kept looking up and either the same craft again or saw another one exactly like the first. The second sighting was approximately 3 minutes after the first sighting.

Occurred while driving southeast on Hwy 54. Stopped and photographed the craft at this location using an iPhone 7. This craft was in close proximity to RDU International airport flying perpendicular to the main runways at a distance of approximately three nautical miles. My friend, who was in my car with me, immediately called Air Traffic Control at RDU to report the incident. The tower should have had a visual on the craft as well as on radar. The info was taken, but we have no information as to any observations made at the airport. UFO/UAV craft configuration: A flying wing with two white and one red light. The red light was in the center, with the two white lights at equal-distance at each end. The craft was moving away from us. We were tracking it from the rear. It was flying directly before us, above the road and on the same track. We could not see additional shape details. It basically looked like a straight line with three lights. It appeared to be flying very slowly. There was no discernible noise you would expect from an aircraft flying away from you. I want to stress, at the first sighting, it was not some distant blip far off in the sky. It appeared to be a very large, low flying plane at a close distance. Now, seeing aircraft constantly at RDU, everything from small commuter planes to Jumbo jets, I report the following — The craft was of immense size, frightfully immense, dwarfing anything I have ever seen. It is hard to evaluate the size accurately without a firm reference to distance. It did not have standard navigation red/white/green lights, nor landing lights. No strobes lights. No pulsing of its lights, just the three steady lights as previously mentioned. This is a high traffic take-off and landing pattern area. No conventional aircraft would be flying in this area without strobes, nav-lights and landing lights full on. It would be an FAA violation and a severe hazard unless it was in communication ATC and had clearance. The sighting was as follows: We were headed south on Airport Blvd and turned left onto Chapel Hill Rd/Hwy 54 in a southeast direction. I noticed what I momentarily thought were aircraft lights forward and above us at a close distance. I immediately realized it was not a conventional airplane and said to my friend, “That’s a UFO.” She scoffed, looking at the three lights and assumed it was three airplanes. She then realized, as I had, that this was a single craft and there was structure between the lights. She yelled to me to, “Pull over, pull over and take a picture!” I had to drive, watch this thing, and find a safe place to pull over. As you will see in the photo that I did manage to get, there were other cars on the road. This is not some deserted country lane in the middle of nowhere. She, in the excitement, was unable to find her phone buried in her backpack fast enough. And is now giving me grief that I didn’t put the phone in video mode. After I got the photo, we followed down the road trying to get to a more open view. This is an Eastern US road with trees on both sides and the leaves are still on. While she kept it in view for a short while, less than a minute, it was then lost in the trees and horizon. She immediately called RDU Air Traffic Control to report the sighting. At the time of this writing, the incident occurred six and one-half hours ago. About me: I am a licensed private pilot for many years. In years past, I had flown my airplane to/from RDU. I had a professional news reporting background.

Palm Coast, FL
A dry and clear moonlit night with light clouds. Three boomerang shaped objects appeared in an off kilter V formation. They looked to have a faint amber glow as if they may have been reflecting light as opposed to producing their own. They were totally silent as they headed south at a moderately fast speed. My first thought was possibly a spotlight from a nearby airport hitting a cloud but the objects were still visible as they moved away from the cloud and against the clear starlit sky. They then disappeared behind the next cloud. I waited several minutes but the objects never reappeared and no spotlights were in use at that time which eliminates that theory.

I was sitting on my deck looking at the sky. The weather is clear. 2045 I saw a bright light (like a search-light at a distance) It was in the western sky approximately 2 o clock, traveling north to south. After about 15 seconds it simply faded and vanished. Again, no clouds. No noise and no aircraft strobe. It was a point of bright light about 3 times the size of Venus and many times brighter. Venus had already set behind the trees so it wasn't Venus, and Mars was in the 10 o-clock position. I initially thought it might be the ISS but the shape was not correct. I've seen the ISS many times and it is bright and fades from view, but it is angular in appearance, almost like a Greek cross. Five minutes later I saw a roughly chevron shaped craft with bright lights emanating from the front leading edges. This appeared to my north at about the 11 o clock position moving west to east. It also slowly faded and vanished. No clouds, no noise, no strobe. I immediately went inside and checked the plane tracker website on the chance it was a plane and I merely misidentified it somehow. No aircraft were shown in the vicinity. I'm retired and I spend a great deal of time plane watching day and night. I am also ex-military (police) and I've worked for the dept. of defense. I know a military aircraft when I see one. And these were not. I often have fighter planes from the neighboring AFB train in the airspace above where I live. (During the day) The sound is deafening. I know it sounds corny but the way these objects/craft moved, fading and vanishing reminded me of the old Star Trek and ships cloaking themselves. I know how that sounds but I'm trying to be accurate and convey exactly what I saw. I have only seen/interacted with an unidentified flying object once before and that was in 1989 in Alabama. So its not like I see these things "regularly". I know what I saw. (No it wasn't satellites either. I've seen satellites pass over my place on clear nights and they are tiny TINY points of light---these were larger and much more substantial. So satellites, planes, planets and the ISS are OUT as explanations. Forgive me for not taking your call earlier this evening. I was in my workshop. If you have any further questions please call me.

Grey V shape about 200 yards if on ground. Flying Southwest. Silent. "Unrelated" Military helicopters flying around today then right after it flew by. Coincidence?

It made no sound and it was not extremely high in the air. But it vanished quickly. The way it flew was southeast from East prairie towards the DORENA HICKMAN area. I was unsure of what I saw but it scared me. What was it, does anyone know? Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

We were sitting on the balcony, star gazing, because we had heard that there was going to be a meteor shower....we were only out watching about 20 minutes, when a huge thing with wings flew over us. Actually it glides over us. Never flapped its wings. The wings were so captivating! Large and translucent like....we could see the stars just as clear as before, even with this giant thing flying over. At least two car lengths long! It was not a bird of ANY KIND. We also had lost power almost one hour before this happened in the casino hotel.

Paragould, AR
We were in car driving north on highway 351 in Greene County, Arkansas, close to the Crowley’s Ridge Raceway. As we approached, we noticed a horizontal line of several lights up ahead above the tree line. When we got closer it appeared to be higher than a cell tower, but not real big, about the size of a small single propeller airplane. The closer we got to it, we saw a green light on one end and a red light on the other with a white light in center. None of the lights were blinking. We drove directly under it, low enough to see bottom of craft. It was not moving and not making any sound, looked like a boomerang with 3 lights on bottom in a chevron shape. No windows observed, grey/black in color. Very creepy.

Three chevron shaped objects streaked across the sky traveling east to west. They were directly above me. I was trying to locate the galaxy andromeda and was focused on the constellation Cassiopeia when the lights came into view. They traveled in a delta formation. As they crossed overhead they separated in the western sky and disappeared out of view. My visual event lasted no more than five seconds. My first inclination was that they were some sort of night flying white birds. However dismissed that notion as they were traveling very fast. I thought also that they were iridium flares however I am sure they do not occur in threes.

Federal Heights, CO
Around 3:25am MST on September 1, 2018, two objects floated in the air within 30 feet of the tree tops from the north end of the canal behind Tejon Way past the point of view toward the Comcast buildings to the south of Tejon Way in Federal Heights, Colorado. I was standing at the bottom of a hill about 5 feet below the base of the trees. The first object was a small, matte, beige, pentagon shaped object about three feet in width and 1-2 feet tall. It had 0.5-1-foot-long triangular tail on the flat end of the pentagon. It was quietly traveling about 20 mph in a straight line. The object contained no lights or moving objects on it. In comparison to a full moon, or a fist held up at arm’s length, this object was about 200% the size; however, it was in close proximity. So, my best guess is an object about 3 feet in length. A second or two after this object passed by, a larger object followed within the same trajectory as the first. The second object also was matte and beige and resembled a large kite. However, there was no wind at this time and the object went from north to south, from within view to out of view. This object had a 90-degree angled nose with the wings about 10 feet long. The whole object was ‘M’ shaped with the back tip of the wings rectangular in shape with triangles on the end. In comparison to a full moon, or a fist held up at arm’s length, this object was up to 600-700% of the size; however, it was in close proximity. So, my best guess is an object about 10 feet in wing-length and possibly 14-15 feet wide. These were completely silent. I felt no thoughts that this was abnormal while it happened. It took me a couple of seconds to realize this was not an everyday occurrence.

Disappeared in some storm clouds to the north and was gone. Approximately several thousand ft up and have no idea on approx speed. Again, definitely not a plane, bird, drone, or ballon...just solid black and maybe turning over several times before disappearing in a dark storm cloud.

I would like to report a Unidentified Flying Object sighted on August 17, 2018, at approximately 12:02 A.M. in Southern Minnesota. Myself and two of my friends were sitting outside at night. We had a clear sight of the stars in the sky as it was a clear night. My friend had looked up in confusion and pointed up and asked us what something was, coming our way. We saw an aircraft flying at tree level. It was moving at a constant speed, approaching from the West and leaving sight towards the East, and was only in sight for about four to five seconds. The aircraft was also completely silent. We were all able to make out the shape of the aircraft. The shape was what I can best describe as, chevron shape with large circles along the whole bottom of the aircraft. I was able to see a little glimmer of metallic material. Other details: Lights outside that are on a timer had went out early, several minutes before seeing the aircraft. Two of the observers are 18 years of age and the other one is 17 years of age. None were under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

When i looked closer, it looked like there were more smaller lights close around it. The light started to fade a dull orange and then it disappeared. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Albion, ME
It was roughly 9:45pm EST; I was standing on my deck hoping to see some of the Perseids when three solid lights appeared slightly south west of my position roughly 90 degrees above the horizon heading in an easterly direction. The lights were brighter than most stars and solid, and they were moving about as fast as a typical plane or drone seems to move across the sky (much slower than the Perseids). I quickly realized that the three lights were maintaining a chevron pattern with the chevron pointing north making it seem as if the chevron was moving sideways west to east. After I realized the nature of what I was seeing I realized the chevron was also accompanied by a low rumbling sound, similar to a plane but an octave or two lower and a bit quieter. A few seconds after that a bright light caught my attention in the east sky. I turned to see a bright stationary light had appeared due east of me approximately 90 degrees above the east horizon. The stationary! light was initially more luminous than even Mars has been recently. The stationary light began to move in a south westerly direction directly toward the chevron lights. As the lone light accelerated to the average speed of a plane or drone its luminosity reduced until it was no more luminous than a moderately bright star. As the lone light approached the chevron both objects became more faint, eventually disappearing in the middle of the southeastern sky. The entire experience lasted a bit longer than a minute. During that minute the chevron lights never broke formation. The sky was exceptionally clear and dark due to the new moon. None of the lights flashed or blinked in the least, only ever reducing in overall luminosity. A final note on the size of the chevron...the chevron lights were no bigger than large stars, but the chevron itself, if I held up my fingers, I could fit 2 but not quite 3 fingers between the lights. That distance never changed. The three chevron lights always moved in complete unison.
