Prior Lake, MN
I was going to work at 5:30 am and noticed an extremely bright light at 223*, 35* up angle from my position. It was so bright that it captivated me and the object was not moving. I thought it was a planet and tried to pull up my star app. Before I could get it up, the light flashed 3 times and faded out. It was directly right of a star but I was unable to identify with the app .

Clearfield, PA
Saw a light in the sky we thought, (at first), was just a star. It was a clear night with lots of stars out. But then this light started moving. Making “S” and “zigzag” pattern moments and then abruptly stopping. While stopped the light would intensify in brightness and then dim again. Then it flew off behind a tree line and out of sight. We were amazed by what we saw and couldn’t believe it. No plane or helicopter could have made those movements and surely was no star. For the time and location of the area a drone is highly unlikely.

Hanford, CA
There was three lights lined up , that appeared like stars but little by little light objects were coming out of it. They would travel pretty far from the three lights how ever would go out.

North Battleford (Canada), SK · Canada
At approximately 8:55pm, saw what I thought was a bright star, but it was moving. Called my husband outside and we watched it go at the same speed, it stopped, got brighter, than hovered in a circular motion for about 15 seconds. It shot up, than towards the left. Stopped again, hovered, than flew quickly towards the bottom star of the big dipper, where we lost track of it.

Barrie (Canada), ON · Canada
Once it was out of sight two more came in formation following the exact same path as the 9 earlier. The last one slowly glowed very very bright then dimmed down to look like a satellite. It did this several times as they followed the path of the other nine. But definitely was in formation. It looked like this . . . . . . . . . . . Heading to the right>>>>> I looked up on a satellite tracker and there was nothing like this formation.

Charlestown, RI
I was standing outside my office looking at the stars, when a light was moving across the sky at a high rate of speed, to high to be a plane heading south west from the North east. It slowed down to a complete stop. It was hard to see it when it changed direction and headed south east at a high rate of speed until I lost sight of it.

Aurora, MN
It was a clear stary morning. As i looked up at the stars to the east, i noticed a line of stars just south of the big dipper that I've never remember seeing. I continued to scan around the sky,and when i looked back at the line of stars they where no longer stationary. They where moving east and getting in formation of a triangle. Once a triangle was made all three lights just disappeared

Honolulu, HI
I was sitting outside on the Lanai in room 2319 of the Hilton Waikiki Beach. An orange light appeared above a residential area on the hills overlooking Waikiki Beach. It took off at a speed that is unexplainable.

Centralia, WA
That night around 9 pm I went out to my car to grab my charger. I looked up and saw a orange light in the sky. I thought it was a bit weird because it didn’t look like a plane it was one orange light in the sky that was kind of big in size but not huge. You could clearly tell it was not a plane. The orange light began to brighten and then dim, like it was slowly pulsing but it stayed orange the whole time, never changing colors. I yelled for my relative to come and take a look to confirm what I was seeing but while they were trying to get outside the light pulsed one last time and then seemed to just fade away and it was gone. I have been looking at the sky around the same time for 3 weeks now and have not seen it again. But I do know it was not a airplane or a helicopter, the light was orange like a pumpkin orange and it was a big singular light in the sky.

Osssipee (?), NH
I look at the stars every night from my porch and take notice of star locations and how they move through the sky. I noticed a bright round white light too big to be a star that wasn't there around the same time the night before. The light moved in small circles, side to side, up and down and in and out. My wife came out and watched it moving also. I took some videos of it and watched it for about 20 minutes. I came inside for a minute, came back out and it was gone, yet all the other stars were where they were when I went inside.

Lady lake, FL
The surrounding were in a suburban area near a house in a small yard. The UFOs appeared as bright white lights, appearing like stars. They would appear individually, there were 10 total objects seen. The craft omitted no sound, and were very fast, much faster than airplanes. The objects would be going one way, and then suddenly change directions. They never traveled along a set path. Occasionally they would suddenly stop and then disappear, appearing to sort of “pop” in different directions before doing so.

Santa Ana, CA
Last night I saw this blinking light shoot up from behind this apartment building. It then hovered for a while, then slowly moved upward. I was so focused on the blinking light that I didnt even notice the double white light off to the right. When the blinking light moved toward the double white light, it appeared to split into 2, then moved to the left, past the blinking light. The sighting was at this location- XXXX 17th st Santa Ana, Ca 92705 At 7:47pm 2/23/20

North Kingstown, RI
The object was a big ball of light and above the road. I saw this same object with a friend driving in north smithfield a different part of the state at the exact same hours at 1:00 AM and it's yhe second time within 4 months seen by someone else other then me which is the weird part that freaks me out. Only seems to be seen while driving home because I go to my friends house every weekend to watch sports and have to drive home at 1 am. Object fazes into a ball of light around 8 or stories above the highway and flies at a stalkish slightly faster speed then the car and after 5 seconds fazes out of visibility and disapears. Goes in a really odd looking super straight line that looks unreal. No other concerning observations about the object rather then it keeps appearing around the state at a similar height around 1 am only when almost no one is on the roads.

Edina, MO
Initial thought I was seeing geese flying in formation and under lit..so out of context. Realized there was no wing movement and it was a dark night. It was in a haze but looking directly overhead the stars were bright and clear. The object was moving slowly as in neutral in a WNW direction. The altitude I’m guessing was around 1,000 ft. After observing the object for 10-15 seconds, the lights suddenly went out and nothing could be seen.

IdentifiedSaint-Christoly-Medoc, Aquitaine · France
Le 22 février 2020, vers 21h00, depuis son domicile de Saint-Christoly-Medoc, le témoin observe une lueur lointaine d’apparence très brillante, un point très scintillant par rapport aux étoiles. A l’œil nu, ce point est d’apparence fixe et scintillant. Les jumelles et le zoom du téléphone font apparaître une sorte de forme de diamant taillé de couleur or. Cette lumière s’intensifie avant de diminuer, et de se fondre dans la nuit. L’observation dure environ 45 minutes. Ce cas est de bonne consistance avec des photos et vidéos du phénomène ainsi qu'une photo de reconstitution permettant de pouvoir positionner le PAN lors de l'observation (voir le compte rendu d'enquête). L’enquête a conclu à l'observation de la planète Vénus. Présente, dans la direction d'observation à l'heure définie : Vénus est ce soir là, l'objet le plus brillant du ciel nocturne. Les étrangetés perçues par le témoin à savoir : - la forme particulière observée aux jumelles et avec le zoom du téléphone s’explique par l’effet optique et d’imagerie dû à un mauvais réglage, défaut de mise au point. - la disparition du phénomène est probablement provoquée par une couche de nuage de haute altitude l'occultant progressivement et donnant cette impression de "fondre" dans le ciel nocturne. Cette observation est classée en A, observation de la planète Vénus. [GEIPAN classification A — Vénus]

San Angelo, TX
Four people, adults in 60’s and 70’s, saw NW 30-degree azimuth in night sky over San Angelo, TX on February 22, 2020. It was like a huge star in the sky but with several distinct lights. Possibly four lights in a diamond shape with two lights trailing. Looked like a star low in the sky at first, but much larger. We could see it from the car as we drove four or five miles back to home also in the same town. The object did not move. Stayed in the same place as we watched. It was not a star – we could see stars above us in the sky clearly. These lights were golden in color. We got out of the car and still could see the light clearly. Our neighbors were frightened and went inside their house. We went out in our car to try to find it, driving toward Lake Nasworthy. But the light had vanished. It was just gone. We saw it clearly, and it was very large, for about 20 minutes. Then it was just gone.

Oklahoma City, OK
At around 8:03 PM Feb.17th 2020 I saw a string of lights all coming from the same direction (SW to NE) and they moved across the sky at a pace that would be slower than a commercial airline until they got to a certain point in the sky and then vanished. There were no clouds whatsoever. I watched 10 of them all do the exact same thing and they vanished at the same place in the sky...then it all stopped. Looks like somebody saw this same thing on 2/8/20.

La Mesa, CA
Traveling home from dinner with my family. Noticed a bright blueish light off to the west. Looked to be a helicopter but did not have any flashing lights. Stayed same elevation and location. Looked at my wife to make sure she saw the same thing. She looked and watched it blink then disappeared.

Upper Chichester, PA
As we were driving down Chichester Avenue, Pennsylvania, I looked up and noticed three red blinking lights in the sky, forming a triangle. We pulled over to watch it, and noticed it was hovering. After a few minutes of watching, one light at a time slowly faded away until all three lights disappeared. There were no sounds coming from it.

Rochester, WA
The first lights were seen in the north east sky near the lacerta constellation. Only two of them to start but after that at regular intervals more appeared from seemingly nowhere. All in a straight direct line going north east at a regular pace. There were no sounds or flashing lights. They all had the same or similar point of origin in the sky. I had stopped to count them and by the time i had to leave or be late I had counted at least 27 and there were more showing up. Once I got in the road and checked the similar area in the sky they seemed to have stopped appearing and the ones that were there had disappeared. I am not sure if they went over the horizon as I had homes and trees blocking move of my horizontal view.

Shakopee, MN
I was driving and the road I was driving down didn't have much light, there was no one on the road behind me or coming towards me. I look up in the sky and see an undefined roundish shape in the sky. Yellow/ white light, I could have sworn I saw some green and blue in the colors. It presented itself in the sky for 5 seconds and then it left, there was a light streak in the sky for a second after it disappeared.
