Three separate circles of bright lights that alternated lighting up. Changed location and formation quickly. Very bright. Looked like a streetlight up in the sky. Planes were crossing the sky and they looked like ants compared to these lights. Then suddenly they disappeared. I attempted a video but it did not work.

Very high, slowing moving like a satalite, but slower, reversed direction and increased speed.

I saw two very high-altitude objects moving toward each other almost on a collision course. The two objects stopped moving when they got close to each other. Both objects hovered for several minutes. One would flicker its lights, then the other would flicker.

I went home to get Wife and Son to see it, but it was gone. In fact I asked my Son if there was an event he forgot to tell me about as he follows weather closely. I am sure someone seen besides me, as roads were fairly busy at the time. I have seen comets before, or One burn in the sky, but this was stationary and Large.

Redo: Sorry this took so long, busy, fired, then I got the flu that laid me up for a month or more and I broke a rib coughing. In that time my van’s battery ran down and I don’t have a computer on the internet. I’m at the Albany Public Library. First about me: 1) I served in the US Navy and had watch standing as a duty on ships where I was trained to watch the sky and look for any in bound objects. This entailed me having to give the location in the sky of anything in the sky, 2) I was in commercial flight school, second year, when 911 happened. I am familiar with standard aviation markings at night. On 10/19/17 I was driving to work in Albany, NY, and made a shortcut through a nearby stadium parking lot. It was night and I stopped to adjust my clothing which had bound up. As I looked toward the eastern sky at about 30 degrees off the horizon, due East I saw an object traveling at what I estimate to be about 100 plus knots straight up. The object was yellow with orange flashing lights. This is not the markings of any terrestrial aircraft and the speed excludes anything like balloons, and the altitude it reached was at I estimate over a mile up. I checked with the airport and the ceiling was broken at one to ten miles, where it disappeared in one to two minutes. Then I saw a second object and recorded it on my phone. The images move side to side from holding the phone. The sound in the background by chance is a rebroadcast of Coast to Coast with Art Bell on my car's radio.

At approximately 7:16, October 18, 2017, A bright object was hovering low in the Western sky, zigzagging back and forth. Overhead, there were several other crafts with similar lights, closer in size of the surrounding stars. All of these objects were flashing red, green, blue lights with a white light in the center, seemingly floating Westward in the direction of the larger stationary object. This was the second sighting two nights in a row (previous sighting was Oct. 17, 2017). As we (there were three of us) One was blinking a bit brighter than the others, then suddenly dropped straight down with lightening speed and disappeared. A few minutes later, looking towards the Eastern sky, there was a very large (about the size of a street lamp) bright, amber colored oblong (North to South) object. It was also hovering low in the Eastern sky with erratic zigzagging movements. Hovering close to it was a much smaller reddish/yellow object. Both were moving in small increments at the same time. This lasted about three minutes, then quickly vanished.

It was about 7:15pm Wed Oct 18th. I picked my daughter up from work and we were headed back to our house. Our neighborhood is in a pretty populated area of town. Our street is dark though, it's a small road leading into our neighborhood and it sits up high on a hill overlooking the rest of the town. I turned left into the subdivision we can see down a large hill and lots of sky. It is a great spot, very open and expansive. The reason I explain all of this is to show that I have a great view of alot of sky at this vantage point. It was very dark at this time, no moon there is airplane and helicopter traffic out in the distance, that is normal so I didn't at first think to much of it. But what caught my eye that made me stop in the middle of the street was two round very super bright lights in the sky to my left. They were just sitting there at a strange angle. Not a normal angle though, not a star or plane, they two were completely stationary. My daughter is 17, I said don't those lights look super odd. She agreed and added that it almost looked like there was a circle around them. I am now kicking myself for not grabbing my phone, we both were almost frozen looking at these lights. I scanned the sky nothing was moving around it. Then all of a sudden the best way I can describe this is the two anglular lights moved away from us. Like they slowly disappeared into the sky. As to explain like it took off slowly but was enveloped by the sky. It did not go left or right or at any angle but forward into the dark. I hope I have described what I saw well. Was it quick? but felt like an eternity. We both were screaming how it was disappearing. Then it was gone. We sat there for another minute and I looked all over the sky, but didn't see anything else. I will never forget it! Thank you for letting me share. Also the circle part I referred too was very very light could not make out that well.

hello to whom it may concern; Okay it was the 18th of oct 2017 i was in my bed naping, I awoke at about 10:40 AM i was looking out the window whena brite spot in the western sky in the cloud covered sky. I was looking at the spot, I thought thats a brite light the brite light was stationary west south west of my home, North Adams, Massachusetts. Okay i am looking at the brite object in one moment the light ball as it looked to me. At in about 1/4 of a second seemed to move vertical just a hair I saw the light move it seemed to me to move a bit then it was gone strait up gone upward at flash speed off the map away toward space. What could it be led light, maybe the International space station, maybe extraterestial spacecraft. Your Truly

I was sitting outside in the backyard in the open. I was talking on the phone and looking up in distance I see a red light, it was only like a dot in the sky but it was not flashing. I figured it was an airplane because it was going about as fast as a regular airplane would go. So, didn't pay too much attention until about a few minutes later when I looked up again to see the UFO stopping in mid air. I almost could not believe what I was seeing. There is no plane I know of that just stops in mid air. That lasted for another minute or two and then, unexpectedly the UFO shot straight up at a speed of thousands of miles per hour. I haven't really told anyone because I know how most people think. More people will think I am making this up than not. I am convinced that this has been happening for a very long time and the Truth MUST be told.

Browns Summit, NC
Approximately 12 orangish and yellow balls, almost looking as if balls of fire were floating in the sky, they were not as high as the stars above, yet were in formation almost as if they were a constellation of some sort, but they did not at first appear to be moving, as if they all were just there floating. Then slowly they began to form closer clusters of three and four together, slowly they began to fade. When there was only three left, it were as of one just disappeared as the rest then the last two gravitated towards each other and then became only one. Never once did they get larger, yet appeared to just combine and slowly the last one just faded away.

On October 17th, 2017, at 7:30 PM, I saw a bright object, about the size of a planet, sitting low in the western sky with multiple circular lights of red, green, blue and white in the center, pulsating at different speeds. The object would zigzag, move up and down, then side to side in small increments, while essentially remaining in the same area. The animals (dogs, coyotes, cows and birds) in the wooded countryside where I reside, seemed to be very upset about something, making a lot of noise. As I looked up overhead, there were a few more of the same colored lights only smaller in size, a little larger than the surrounding stars moving very slowly (much slower than an airplane). Then there was a flood of these objects, approximately 50. With the exception of the animal noises, there was no sound. At times they were so close together, I thought they would collide. I went to the front yard to get a larger scope of the sky and noticed they were coming from two different directions. Some from the North and others from the East. But all were converging and gravitating towards the larger, stationary object in the western horizon. Some would disappear quickly, while others continued to circle and zigzag. Occasionally some would emit a large grayish-white beam of light in the southerly direction for a few seconds. This continued until I finally came inside after midnight. I am very thankful to be validated by no less than nine other people who experienced the same phenomenon. No other reports from that area. We wonder whether the objects might have been stars, although the witness insists they were not. PD

Driving home, I saw around 12:30 AM, a large, far off purple circle shaped light. It didn't appear to be moving, but hovering. Then, as soon as I saw it. It seemed to speed off in a flash and disappeared in an instant. I saw its trail of light disappear too. It was a clear night, and there were no street lights. I saw it from Durham Road, just leaving the Acme parking lot.

Huntsville, TX
Driving to work, I noticed what I thought to be a pretty, bright star. As I was looking at it seemed to grow in size. So I watched it more closely, it was definitely beginning to move. It first seemed to move towards me (west), growing brighter, but I turned north, and it continued moving in a west direction. It got so low I could not see it through the trees any longer. After about a minute it began to ascend and grew dimmer again until I lost visablity.

At 8 PM pacific time, I was star watching with husband. We both noticed a "star" moving. We thought maybe an airplane but the speed and distance could not be an airplane. We saw 7 lights moving different directions, we followed the star for 20 seconds and the light would dim out, 5 seconds later, the light would brighten up, finally loosing sight 5 seconds later.
