3 lights horizontally in a row moving horizontally in slow motion towards base. Too slow for a plae or helicopter to stay in the air. Then bright burst of white light, a 90 degree turn, then fast move up and into the clouds. As a typical black hawk was coming/ flying over to land at the base. It was as if who or what did not want the pilots to them! The object dod not make any sounds at all.

Palm Desert, CA

I was visiting family in california. arrived late on 11/24th. I was awakend to let my dog outside at 5am to potty. I was looking up at the sky and I noticed the stars were very visible no clouds when I saw this very very large rectangle that appeared to be right over the Bump an Grind Trail in Palm Desert. It was moving very slowly across the top of the mountains(hills with trails)southbound towards the other trail up to the Cross that is always lit up. The rectangles side visible to me had lights that almost looked like words written across them but nothing I could read. There was no sound at all. I am very familiar with planes and blimps and what they look like at night and what they sound like. At first my brain thought it was a jet airplane but it was not making any sound what so ever and for the sheer size that would mean its very close and I would definitely hear the jet noise. Then I thought maybe it a twin prop plane carrying a lit Christmas banner b! ehind it and then I realized there is no noise and that was ridiculous. I was not on any drugs that would have altered my state. I did see a hikers headlamp shine on the bump and grind trail which is common in early mornings and late evenings but that was the only other thing I could see around that area. the one end of the rectangle eventually started to disappear slowly as if it might be turning possibly, but I am unsure as to why is was disappearing

Portland, OR

It was a clear night sky. I was looking east when 3 black objects flew by in formation from North to South. They looked large and they were moving quite fast with no sound. If I had not been looking in that area at that moment I wouldn't have noticed them as they were dark or black rectangle objects. No lights.

I was walking along a path on the levee in Gretna Louisiana at dusk and taking occasional pictures of the city skyline. We’re looking at one of the pictures I take and there was an object in the sky that I hadn’t seen when taking the photo however it appeared when I looked at the picture.

YUKON, OK

I was out with my new binoculars to look at the stars. I looked to the south and noticed something large, dark, and low altitude flying silently several miles away. The object had to be huge, larger than a jumbo jet. At first, I thought it was a huge flock of birds, which would have been strange at 9:30 PM, but it wasn't that. It looked brown/gray/black, not sure, but it just came so close to blending with the night sky that I wouldn't have noticed it if the night wasn't so bright and if it had not blotted out some stars as it passed. The shape is difficult to describe. I would say the primary portion of it was rectangular, but with protrusions at the top and bottom. It almost looked like the silhouette of a giant gun or key. I will submit an illustration by email. I caught it with my binoculars and tracked it as far as I could. It was going East to West, but as a I tracked it, it veered off to the north some distance away. At one point, I did notice some very dim lights, but I thought it may be reflections from early lights as it turned. The shape seemed different when it turned, but I don't know if it had to tilt to do that or what. At some point it was behind a house and I lost it.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong

I was playing basketball in hk Lam Tin a basketball court.While I was resting on the chair inside the basketball court I saw something like a yellow star on the sky, it didn’t move first when I see it at the beginning but it flew when I see the thing for about10s later on the sky.Suddenly it moved very fast from the sky to the ground(fast like 40 floor go down to the first floor for1to2s).After go down to the ground it went before the basketball court and don’t move anymore.I was too scared so that I go away after that happen and I didn’t take any photos or videos. It about 1m x1m big.The thing can made red and blue light while that is on the sky.After that time,sometimes I go to there(basketball court) there’s a red light for cat to play lighted on the floor around me very near but I didn’t saw anyone is playing that .(I have saw the light for 2 to 3 times before.I think the thing is still right there now but people cannot always see it.

North Charleston, SC

Broad daylight, blue sky. 200 yards away. I saw one very bright white square shaped ufo. The shape was more like a thick square that had been flattened a little and the corners were slightly rounded. There was a silver band at the midpoint or just below. It hovered, hanging silently in the air. I turned my head away for 3 seconds to see if anyone else was seeing it. When I turned back, it was gone, I mean gone. I searched the skies but it was nowhere. I was close enough to see it was not a balloon or a drone. I had seen this thing and no one will ever tell me I didn’t. And I will never deny seeing it.

Denver, CO

On November 2nd I’m outside having a smoke at 9:30am, on the west side of my apartment complex. I’m sitting by an area for smoking, on north side looking south. Weather cool and no cloud cover at all. At about 9:40am, I hear what sounds like a small business jet. This is normal for this area. When I look up I see something, a craft shaped like a dollar bill. This shape is similar to Northrop Tacit Blue, but at this point things are different. At midpoint on each side of the fuselage there appears to be wings, they are too short and straight out from body of craft to be of little use. There is also no tail structure, is completely missing on the craft. Finally there is what looks like some kind of exhaust port on end of craft. Also craft wasn’t too thick in cross section. The object was on a bearing of about 165° true. The view was about five seconds, then view was blocked a wood horizontal beam and it was never seen. Its bear could of change to the west.

Pittsburgh, PA

While coming home from shopping I observed a rectangular object in the northwest sky that looked like and advertising banner that's pulled behind a plane only there was no plane. The object remained stationary horizontally about 500 to 1000 ft in altitude but moved slowly from east to west while sighted. As I glanced away for a second or two to pull up to my house to take a photo it disappeared from sight. The sky was cloudy and it's possible it may have entered one. I stayed a short while longer before unloading my car to see if it would reappear, but it didn't.

Franklin, WI

My husband and I were driving north on S 76th St between W Forest Hill and W Rawson Ave and I noticed this large, flat, black rectangular object just hanging in the sky. It was pretty big. It was not moving except for turning sideways or straight up and back again. There were no lights on it. I said to my husband to look but he was driving and couldn’t see it. I kept watching it until some trees got in the way. Once we passed the trees it was gone. There was no wind at the time either. It happened so fast I didn’t get pictures. Weird!

I have a 15 second video, it was most definitely not a drone or a smudge on the lens.

Honoluu, HI

Above Leahi/Diamond Head lookout spotted many lights low in the sky. First thought was airplane, but it was very low and much, much larger then a plane. Shape was rectangular, kind of like floating scaffolding in T-shape with lights on borders. It was moving slowly.. floating past.. hardly any sound. After it was out of sight a plane appearing coming from Maui direction.. this confirmed what I saw was not a plane cause it was very different.. Also giant white round cloud was hovering above..

Dunbarton, NH

At approximately 1945 on 10/24/20 for at least 4 minutes we observed a string of lights moving in the western night sky of Dunbarton NH. It was low in the sky traveling over an open meadow near the road. It moved very slowly and as it came closer I could see it was very large in a long “shoebox” shape. It was silent and the white lights on it were in a straight line and constant. We lost sight of it as it passed by.

North Brookfield, MA

Leaving my house to go to the store, we pass by an old farm field. While talking with my son, I'm looking west out drivers side window. I see lots of planes flying high in the sky. Another object catches my eye. A flat long rectangular shaped craft with multiple lights side by side flying in a level plane at about 1-1.5K. The objects seems to be less than 2 miles from where we are. Moving slowly from west to east. I ask my son what he sees? I stopped the car and both of us got out to see what type of craft. I turned off the car to listen, no noise. We watched as the object started to take a more south east trajectory and it seemed as thou the object started to climb in elevation. What ever it was, as the elevation rose, the lights on it seemed to be getting dimmer the higher it got. The lights seems to go out as if passing through clouds, but no clouds in the sky. Clear night. From my stand point, the 1/2 moon was in the southern sky and as planes had flown through the moon light, you could see the siloghett of the plane. This object as it flew through the mooon light could not be seen.

Lincoln, IL

It was a rectangular shape, it was flying a bit above aircraft height and was white and blinked an occasional blue and red. It was fairly small and extremely fast. The UFO appeared to be shooting out things that looked light lightning out from behind it but instead of it going down it made a trail behind them for about three 5 seconds before disappearing. The lightning thing appeared white with a blue outline and was extremely thin. There was only one UFO. We were laying on a trampoline stargazing when my sister pointed it out to me, it was dark and cloudy so the UFO really stuck out. We watched it until we thought it was getting to close and left. We couldn’t figure out what it was, we’ve never seen anything like it.

Jakarta · Indonesia

I spotted 3 box or diamond like objects high up in the storm clouds. I took a picture with my cell phone on almost full zoom and this is what I got. The objects were moving in and out of the clouds and hard to see with the naked eye do to the low light conditions.. These objects stayed near the dark cloud in the picture until they disappeared... The event lasted only 3 or 4 minutes. My educated opinion as an international aircraft mechanic was that these objects were observing our area while hiding in the clouds...

Brighton, MI

I was looking up at the sky since there are animal traps on my roof to catch the flying squirrels in my attic. The moment I looked up to view the trap, I saw come over my house a completely white object with 2 shapes to it. One end was rectangular, and one end was rounded. The sky was blue with no clouds. This object sped up a little, then slowed down, the sped up a little, then slowed down and then stopped. It then disappeared. The total time span was about 15 seconds. There was absolutely no sound.

Observer1) On the night of 10/14/2020 around 8:30 pm. I was taking my puppy outside to take care of his business. I looked up in the sky and I saw something really big and moving slowly. As it got closer I called my husband who was sitting in the living room watching tv. What I saw was a rectangular craft about 300 to 400 feet up. Observer2) Rectangular in shape dark grey dull in color . Bright light on left side a red light on left corner was not a blimp.Longer than a football field it was dark really could not tell the height but I knew it was massive. It moved slowly like it was cruising.
