Milford, CT
We were sitting on a bench in Silver Sand beach, when we noticed a light moving very slowly in the sky. The light started to come closer to us and hovered about 50 feet in front of us. I thought it was a drone, but it was too quiet and was moving very fast and erratic, with flashing white lights, in a pattern. The craft then shot off towards Sikorsky. Other onlookers noticed the craft and thought it was a plane as well, but as a plane past us, you could hear the engine; this was no plane or drone. We own a drone, and at that distance, can be heard. Unless it was military grade, a drone can’t fly at that great of distance; we own one.

Blairsville, PA
A Orange Bright Circular Object Appeared To the south of Blairsville. A loud boom was heard, and then a object very large glowing orange appeared coming up from the ground at a steady rate. The object came straight up, then headed southeast towards Johnston at very high speed. The object then just disappeared. Shortly after a helicopter flew over the area heading towards Latrobe Airport.

Large circular object in the sky. I noticed a circular object in the sky that looked a lot like a star, but it was too early for a star to shine that bright. The sun was reflecting off of it, and when dusk came, the object slowly dimmed, until I could not see it anymore. Did not move at all the entire time it was visible. It was positioned to the southeast of Richmond Ut. I've seen the space station pass before, and satellites, but never something that is stationary for that long at that height, and that big. Took a video for about 2 minutes, when I first saw it around 8:30 at night.

I stood watching it for 10 minutes called my hubby he looked at it for another 15 mins, it was very bright at times but was very still and did not move. After watching it for a while, we both went to bed. Hour later my hubby got up to look at the object again and when he looked up at the sky, it was gone. Maybe it was nothing, maybe it was?

Whitesburg, KY
Just as me and a friend were trying to figure out what it was, it just seemed to change its course and shoot straight up and out of sight. It did not have any tail such as a meteor or comet. There was other aircraft flying around at the time we saw this. Really makes no sense as what this could be, No aircraft could have traveled at this speed we observed.

Sandown, NH
A very bright, white, round, object passed over my house, from West to East, at 2100 hrs. It appeared to be approx. 3 times bigger than how a large star/planet would appear, and it seemed to be much lower than where most large aircraft would fly, possibly 3 or 4 thousand feet. There was not a contrail. Many airplanes fly overhead, and no matter how high up they are, they can be heard. I could clearly see that there were no wings, no blinking lights, it moved slowly and steadily and was silent. This is the second time I have seen this type of aircraft on this same route. The last time was in October 2016.

Circle shape noticed because it looked like it was on fire or just bright orange. Moved from East to North West. No sound moved for a period of time then stopped. Went to different vantage point and it stopped glowing. Seen through open window in my house then went to my deck outside.

A few days ago I reported a possible sighting. However, after doing some research, I found out that the bright light may have been venues!Lol. Sorry about that.Thank you for having this website available, it's very helpful, informative and very interesting.

Moorland, IA
I live in the country miles from any town. I was just looking up in the sky and saw a circular light that caught my eye because it was moving slow and appeared to slightly zig zag. It had no marker lights just a single white light. It flew over and it didn't go far past me and went straight up and disappeared in about two seconds. I am a 35 year aircraft maintenance technician, and have never seen anything like this.

When I edited one of the photos to bring oit the star light this circular image appeared in the bottom eight corner. The second image is the same image enlarged.

I witnessned many UFOs 1 large, and about 20 small. They would light up then go out. Repeatesly. I took video of the event. The witness is known to us, and is former military. He has submitted at least one other credible report of a sighting he had while serving aboard a USCG vessel. He has offered to forward video of this sighting PD

Auburn, WA
My friend and I witnessed a large (at least 2-3 times the size of the sun, in a sky) orange and red bright glowing circle in the sky. We were driving North in Auburn towards Kent, WA, and when we came to a stop light, my male friend in his (60’s) and I (age 27) witnessed the object in the sky, I looked up and seen the same bright orange and red moving across the sky at a steady pace. The object headed east and dipped down out of our sight behind mountains/forest area (this took less than 45 seconds).

The speed was fast. Moved about two times the speed of a regular high altitude airplane. There was an aura around the object. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Waxhaw, NC
Hello, my name is ((name deleted)) but you can call me Mitch. I’m writing this years after my sighting. I don’t think I could give you en exact date but it was definitely night time probably between 8 and 11pm and I was deep in Waxhaw, NC driving with 2 of my friends back to his house. We saw 6 or 8 massive circles in the sky I mean a probably the size of several navy ships each. Basically I know for a fact no vehicle of that size has ever been created. But that’s not even the part that made me think it was for sure aliens. They were swarming in circles around each other like angry bees. It didn’t look like physical objects it was like bright but kind of see thru balls of white light. I think it was cloudy and it started to rain. We drove all the way from downtown waxhaw to like 30 mins into the woods and I swear it followed us because when we got to the house we ran inside and got his mom and little brother to come outside and look at it so we didn’t think we were crazy and THEY SAW IT TOO. A total of 6 witnesses saw this and I am not even friends with them anymore. I don’t like them they don’t like me and I garuntee our stories will match. One of the guys I was with was even crying and he gang bangs. I swear on everything what I saw wasn’t from earth unless someone had 8 spotlights that swarmed and followed us for 30 mins. I don’t see that being possible. I am 21 now and I was probably 17 at the time. I wrote this because I just wanted to tell someone as nasa directed me to. I am pretty sure I took pictures and videos but It’s kind of a blur to me and even if I did I’ve switched phones several times since then and lost all data on them.

Joppa, MD
I was driving home from work, when I saw two very bright orange lights. They weren't flashing, but seemed to be pulsing. They were stationary. I captured them on a rough video, and then one of them dimmed to a star like brightness, but they seemed to be low and under the clouds. We do have a lot of bases around here, but my fiancé and I have been seeing a lot of action in the sky. Recently, we keep seeing star-like moving objects that get extremely bright and then fade into nothing. Possible ISS? I showed my fiancé the video and he thought they were bizarre, but said maybe it was drones. Definitely very bizarre sighting.

I just saw something odd in the sky. Full disclosure: Current beer count: 1.5. A light came from the West. One solid, bright white/yellow light. At first I thought it was a satellite but it was kind of too bright to be a satellite. Moved faster than a plane, but higher than a plane and lower than a satellite. It headed East. But as it progressed East, instead of going lower in the horizon as if it actually headed East, appeared to gain altitude; then abruptly disappeared far sooner than it should have. Zero blinking navigation lights just one light. (( Probably the ISS. See link below: http://heavens-above.com/PassSummary.aspx?satid=25544⪫=47.6101&lng=-122.2015&loc=Bellevue&alt=24&tz=PST PD))

Everett, WA
I live east of I-5 in South Everett, WA. I went out to have a cigarette and saw two objects, circular and saucer shaped. The closest was near 77th St and Broadway slightly higher than small plane at take off in the air. It was slowly moving eastbound like when a car has slowed to check you out. The second craft was Northbound and near the Snohomish River Valley, going slowly like the nearer craft. The nearer craft was close enough to be seen clearly. The sides reflected ambient light. On the bottom was a single light. It made no sound and moved smoothly. I noticed it was not like an airplane because an airplane came by with the typical red and blue light and flashing white light, and it made the typical engine sounds of a small plane. Both craft were bigger than a Cessna.
