Caught on video a red dot spiraling around. Thought it could be a glare at first, but it kept getting closer. It wasnt a laser, just a dot that circled around, and i have a video of how clear it looks.

Kaneoeh, HI
At approximately 2327 hrs. on 7/30/14, I was putting my dogs away for the night when a movement in the sky caught my eye. I saw a huge fiery, brilliantly colored orange/red “thing” moving towards the N/NW direction at a fairly high rate of speed. It was parallel to the earth and appeared to be as big as the moon. It was not irregular in movement. The shape appeared to be a bit elliptical, but I may be wrong. I witnessed it for approximately 1 minute until it disappeared over the Koolau Mountain range on the windward side of Oahu near Kahaluu. I called a local television station to see if they had received any other reports and they stated they had not. This is the first time I have ever witnessed such a thing and it was enough to scare me and keep me awake and watching the sky most of the night. We spoke via telephone with the woman who submitted the report, and she sounded to us to be quite eloqent, sober-minded, and responsible. We suspect that she is a very good, and reliable, witness. PD

I was coming out of a hotel beside the city's airport and getting into my car when I seen a bright red star up in the east. I am always looking at the stars being an amateur astronomer kind of guy. It reminded me of Mars but was way too bright. My house at 1300 Mary Street West was only a couple of blocks away and when driving home I could still see it high up in the east sky. The object then moved toward the airport right over my head but was still high up. I called my daughter out of the house to come and see this thing. It flew by us to my surprise I was so happy that I had another witness. It took off without sound from the big dipper area towards Cassiopeia then disappeared. We waited around to see anything else around when maybe 20 minutes later I seen it or another one come right over a tree in front of my house heading directly east. We were both amazed as it was very close to ground this time and appeared as a red/orangey fireball as my daughter put it. It then gained altitude quickly and sped off towards Cassiopeia again and disappeared. Most remarkable it didn't make any noise and there were no blinking lights like the many aircraft I am used to seeing in my area. After watching a UFO TV show later I learned of the G force and estimated that the object could have went up to near 20 G's as it disappeared in a speed not possible for mankind. I thought it could be a drone later but it was too big. It was slightly rectangular in shape and about the size of the bottom of a helicopter. The remarkable thing was that it did not make any noise even when it flew by over our heads. As a retiree I have never seen anything like it in my life and decided to do this report as it kept bothering me.

I was watching a plane dump out a chemtrail when I noticed what looked like four "vultures" very high up in the sky. They were at the very least 4000 ft in the air, yet their shape was quite visible, and unusually large. They made unusually quick circles for several minutes, then I finally decided to try and film them with my iPhone; and as if it was scripted I kid you not they stopped circling and shot off at an insanely fast speed, one by one. Of course the noon sun made it impossible to capture via the iPhone 5s, but my eyes (shaded by raybans) saw everything in 20/20 vision. I wouldn't waste our time with a fairy tale, this was a unique event.

Shelton, WA
At approx. 8:15am PDT, I was sitting on the front porch having a smoke, and I looked toward the Olympic mountain chain to the west. I quickly spotted a slow-moving object, colored dark grey, and shaped like an old V2 rocket but upside-down. That is, the pointed "nose" was facing down and the "tail fins" were pointed skyward. The object slowly moved from my left to my right (NW or NNW). Distance appeared to be at least five miles and the object's airspeed appeared to be 150 to 200mph. When I first saw it, its azimuth was approx. 9°, and it appeared to slowly descend as my view of it became obstructed by a small stand of trees approx. 200' away; it never reappeared on the other side of the trees (probably because its rate of descent would have placed it near ground level and I do not have an unobstructed view of the ground from where I was positioned). No lights or exhaust plume were visible, and no sounds were audible (even taking into account the many seconds of delay there would have been between the object's first appearance and its subsequent disappearance).

Object was traveling fast and low and was barley visible, but it was there. It was strange that it was barely visible, cause it was low and it was very clear there was a craft like object flying. No sound though.

I saw 2 slow moving lights (about 1/3 the speed of most satellites) in the sky, brighter than stars (not planes, way too high in the sky). There was no sound. They were traveling in tandem in a straight line (from the ground looking up) about 1 inch apart. They were traveling from the southwest to the northeast in direction. I went inside the house to get binoculars and a second observer. However because of various trees I was not able to require the objects again when I came back outside. I stayed outside for another hour and saw two different satellites go by. What I saw was much brighter than the two satellites and appeared to be lower in orbit. In that time I also saw two airline jets and one air plane. What I saw was definitely not jets, airliners or air planes.

My friend and I decided that we wanted to go outside for a little bit due to the fact that everyone else was asleep. When we first went outside, we were shocked to see a shooting start only for it to be closely followed by flashing lights that we thought were an airplane. We got a strange feeling and went inside. We went back outside with our third friend, only to start seeing white lights resembling satellites that would fade in and out and move much slower than regular satellites. All three of us then noticed that what we thought to be a plane at first until it moved over us. It had one red light on front and three white lights. It was in the shape of a diamond and after passing over us it looked as if one of the white lights on the end was above the two lower white lights. It was flying low enough that if it was a plane we could have heard it, but the object did not make a sound at all. We watched the object until it disappeared behind a tree. We sat staring at the sky to see if we could see anything else. About 15 minutes later we all noticed the shape again. It was just as low and came in from the same direction and exited in the same direction. It wasn't a plane. It moved too silently and too slowly. I've never witnessed anything like it. After we saw the second craft we all began to feel very weighted down. It was as if our legs were held to the ground. This feeling lasted for a half hour only to start fading when the sun came up. It was the craziest thing.

Saw 1 bright amber light east of us heading north/north east. It got bright then slowly dimmed out as it started crossing out of view range. Did not blink or anything just steady light except for slowly dimming as it went. about 30 sec. after first light passed a second one exactly the same on same path went by until it also dimmed out as it neared the horizon out of viewing range. Looked to be very high up and to the east of us. Closest similarity in my experience is too seeing missiles flying over around the time they reach a certain altitude and level off etc.

At first I thought it might be an airplane but when we drove more down the road you could see the LED light was beaming down through some haze. When I looked up the UFO was in the shape of a line and it had 3 lights coming from it in total, as we drove more down the road I noticed it also had a blinking red light. We could not tell what color the UFO was.

Look up and saw an upside down L shape in 5 to 7 orange lights. The lights were moving in perfect unison and there was the exact distance from each light as it moved. The lights slowly faded away one by one but it was followed by a singular light of the same color a small distance behind the upside down L.

Sparks, NV
We watched as it looked like a star, but suddenly, out of nowhere it flew about a foot (if measured with a shoe looking in the sky) and disappeared. We thought a shooting star, but it was not at all a shooting star as it did not clear over the horizon.

Suddenly, we saw a search light emit from the overhead light source and it appeared to be sweeping down on the tree tops. As the two lights got closer we could see they were actually 4 bright lights and a central less dim light blinking on and off. At this point we could make out a dark shadowy shape connecting the outer four lights, two on either end. This craft was making no audible noise (a windless night) and approaching almost in our path heading south east. I estimate the craft to be at about 1500 feet above us. As it was almost directly overhead, we could make out a faint constant engine noise. It was a cloudless night and the dark craft appeared to have no standard aircraft body, but appe! ar to be sort of winged shaped. I estimate the length from one to end to the other be about 200-300 feet. Its speed was similar to the speed and approach of an airline jet approaching an airport, however there is no close airports. There were no red or green navigation lights visible. The craft continued on its straight path until leaving our view over a nearby mountain.

My mother and I were driving down the road late this evening when we noticed what appeared to be an airplane. We thought it was odd seeing an airplane so low to the ground. As we drove close I realized that, while the craft was shaped like a plane, it contained more to its shape than a plane. It had an extra barrel and it was shorter than a normal plane. It was just the one craft. However, unlike a normal plane, it was much lower to the ground, had a darker paint job, was very thin, flew very very slowly, and had lights in a triangle formation on the bottom of it. It made no noise and left no trail in the sky. Once I saw the craft, I pointed out to my mother that it was much different than a normal airplane. She suggested that we turn around and take a closer look. We drove down the road maybe 100 feet before making a U-Turn. When we returned to the spot where we had seen the craft, the return was less than a minute, we saw no sign of the craft. It was there one minute and gone the next. We even drove further down the road in hopes of seeing it again or maybe even a sign that it was still there. However there was no sign of the craft we had seen.

Boxborough, MA
Was driving along Rt 2 headed west from Acton toward boxborough/Harvard before passing under 495, witnessed what appeared to be a plane falling rapidly from the sky. Scared me because I thought it would crash onto the highway, but nothing.......have no idea what it could have been, as I see nothing about any plane crashes occurring in this vicinity.

I was awakened by a sound like several jets flying low overhead. Really loud! In the sky, but off in the distance, not overhead - I saw a large dark object, shaped like an almond, but big. Behind it, and I couldn’t tell if this was part of that object or a separate object, there were 6 or 8 white-rimmed red lights in a kind of a hexagon shape. It moved methodically behind the trees moving southeast, towards the Air Force Academy, and the sound was gone.

Multi-colored lights flashed in sequence red, blue, and green. The lights were bright and definitive in their color. The object remained in the same section if the nighttime sky for just over 1/2 hour. It was easily visible. It was well above any if the lit rides that are stationed on the boardwalk. As I got home and attempted to capture the object on video from my balcony, it disappeared. It was difficult to ascertain the shape of the craft but it did seem to be circular or sphere shaped.

this is not really a ufo report but more of irregular military activity in a rather none military area. I witnessed first a pair of UH-60 Blackhawk gunships with flyby wire missiles loaded traveling southward which is odd. Being on the other side of the state from Skiorsky it not odd to occasionally see a single hawk in the air, but to see 2 let alone armed gunships in the air is rare. What happens next is what makes me wonder. flying low enough as to either land, or to be below the radar screen a c-130 flys east to west and this is not the first time i've seen one of these flying in this direction and altitude in the last month more actually the 7th time. There is no air base in the region that supports these aircraft certainly not in a east to west manner that they are flying. There is the westover air force reserve base however it is north of my location and the distance is too soon for the planes to be on a landing approach, these c-130's have been flying lower then normal air traffic approaching the much closer bradley international airport and are on an intersect course with normal air traffic, which i also find to be very odd, as the FFA tends to be anal when military planes due such a thing.

While driving to our home, my wife and I saw a florescent green "grid" appear covering everything in sight. It only lasted about the duration of a camera flash and did not originate from any object seen by us however, it did seem to come from above us. We both immediately stopped conversing and confirmed with each other what we just observed. Additionally, we tried to research what could have caused it and cannot find anything. Very unusual indeed. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
