Pioneer, CA
Bright white spherical object with a thin long tail. The tail was 2 to 3 times as long as the object. The object was moving northward. After a minute disappeared in a puff of smoke as if it burned out. U. S. Navy launch of ICBM missile from a submarine. PD

My husband and I noticed a beam on front window. He looked out to see if there was a car outside. There was no vehicle. He noticed lights to the east in the shelter belt. He noticed 8 lights on top and 10 little lights on the bottom. The object was a sphere.

Highlands, NC
Witnessed a bright yellow orb, not completely round, hovering in the sky to our northwest, possibly over the area of Highlands, NC. Called my husband outside to witness this sighting. It was not high in the sky and seemed to hover at least 15 minutes. We had never seen anything like this before. We set a pair of binoculars upon a stone ledge to keep our hands still and get a good look at this object. It appeared to slightly float up/down. It had a distinct repetitive pattern on its surface. I took several pictures of it with my cell phone. The wind was calm. It eventually moved farther away heading NNW.

Franklin, MA
Neon green ball like flying object. No sound. No trail. Over 4 story hotel. 150 yards away. Very very extremally fast. Just closing up my business. Pitch black out other than moon on other side of tree line. And hotel lighting. Not like a light flash or a reflection. Not a flare. Really odd & hair on arms stood up on end. If wasn't staring at hotel across parking lot as I locked up I would have never seen it. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Ludlow, KY
One object seen hovering low in the sky. Very bright light, seen through binoculars as oval shaped. Sent out periodic beams of light from below the object and above the object, alternating. Planes seen to fly in the vicinity of the object from nearby Northern Ky/Greater Cincinnati Airport. The light brightens at times and sharp streaks of light project from all around the object at that time. As I type this the sighting is ongoing.

Watsonville, CA
Having a smoke brake in the backyard, we saw about 6 spheres moving around very fast. They kept blinking red/orange and then disappearing, then reappering. A few of them lined up in a row.

Capitola, CA
6 bright red orb-like objects in the sky hovering above Monterey Bay. They looked somewhat like fireballs moving fairly fast in all directions and slowly faded up into the sky within 2 minutes of one another. Definitely NOT mistaken identity for flying lanterns. I am not sure how long they were there for, from the time I noticed to the time they disappeared it had been about 15 minutes.

King, NC
Saw what looked liked a really bright star or possibly a planet. However after Looking through binoculars and saw a fast spinning rotating orb with flashes or red, blue and green in it. Appeared to be like it was made out of electricity.It also appears when looking at film of it that there is some sort of heat signature or force field for lack of a better term surrounding it. There were dark orbs or shadows moving in and around it as well as little flashing lights like fireflys. The orb moved around sort of zigzag patterns. At one point it descended below the roof line of our neighbors house in a matter of seconds and then came back up. We witnessed a second one to the left and it looked very similar although it was hard to focus on as it was further away and moving so quickly and in fast short circular patterns. We have been seeing this for several months off and on though this was the closest it has been. My husband has recorded several videos of this object. Sighting of Venus. PD

Valdosta, GA
At about 7:15-7:20 a friend and I saw what appeared to be an orange/golden orb. When that orb disappeared, three more appeared and formed what could be best described as a "diagonal" shape. All within a span of 15-20 seconds, before all lights disappeared at the same time. NOTE: My friend and I live on opposite ends of the city and live about 10-15 minutes of each other. I called Moody Air Force base and they told me that it was a plane (we all know that's not true). I couldn't hear anything coming out of the objects at the time.

Espanola, NM
In the hour past eight o'clock on Tuesday night. I had went outside with my wife to smoke a cigarette. Once outside. I looked up and there it was hovering above Walgreens. It had in the middle of the craft a glass dome and on each side of the dome were long bronze colored cylinders. on the bottom. of the cylinders had its own colored light. The left side was blue and right was red! Inside the middle on the glass dome was a brilliant white light. It lifted into the sky and got small were you could just see the lights. That's when i started to record it on my phone.

Carmine, TX
This is not the first UFO I've seen. I've seen them two times earlier around 1997. The first time I witnessed one was a Spectacular site. It happened over Colorado Springs viewed from just south of Cripple Creek very far away. I was with a roommate walk back to town after running out of gas. The point of light moved over C.S., just like a laser pointer on a wall would if you moved it wildly back and forth up and down. It did this for about 3 min. Source of report indicates that the date is approximate. PD

Madison, WI
On Sunday, February 2nd, 2017, at exactly noon, I was walking near a lake in Madison, WI, and stopped to take photos of a jetstream in the sky. Upon returning home and examining the photos, I found there to be an unexplainable object in one of the photos, which I did not consider to be a dust orb or other lighting issue. I have emailed these photographs to the email address on this page. I did not actually witness anything at the time the photos were taken, but thought that by submitting my experience here you may be able to determine if the object in the photo is a UFO or something else. I thank you for your time in considering my query. Lens flare, caused by photographing the Sun. PD

Fulton, NY
February 2nd 2017, 4PM. I was driving Northbound entering the intersection of S. Second Street and Oneida Street. I was turning left so I was 3 cars back and waiting for the light to turn green. Above the traffic light I saw 3 silvery white orbs, very distinct against a dark gray background. There was a huge lake affect snow cloud building over Lake Ontario and it was a very solid very dark gray sky. They were moving in small, very tight circles. I thought they could be birds but I looked left and the birds over the river were moving totally different. So I said to myself, I'd believe they really are UFO's if they start to multiply. And just then 4 or 5 more blinked into existence to the right of the original 3. As the light was about to change and I was to begin turning left, I thought if they should all disappear, then I will believe this is a real UFO sighting. Damned if they didn't start blinking out one at a time quickly as the light changed. I kept watching as I turned the corner but they wer! e all gone. I came home and searched for any daytime UFO viewings over Fulton and didn't find any.

They stayed in same area about 10 minutes, then each orb light slowly faded away. We assume a nighttime sighting, and have amended the time above.

Abington, MA
Around 5:30PM, I was in front of my house, when I noticed a bright light in the Northeastern Sky passing by the Beehive Cluster. It seemed to be moving so I focused on it to make sure it was. There were no flashing lights and it was just one solid bright white light. It moved through the sky and to the horizon within a couple of minutes. I used my star map to see what was in the sky thinking it could be an asteroid or the ISS but nothing showed up. It was too bright and large to be a satellite or the ISS. Because it was dark and the object was bright, it was hard to pick up any details of the object itself.

Albany, OR
I was walking a country road, some clouds, I saw what I think maybe a comet, but it was like "falling star" and then it seemed to mush around the edges like a cloud and then it swarled like a corkscrew and disappeared and seemed like vanished suddenly, It was white, it looked bigger as it swirled and vanished instantly.

Powell, TN
50' diameter light colored orbs moved in circles as well as rose and went down behind the ridge line. The area they were over is near I-75 where there is an old chemical waste dump site near Dante Rd. and Central Ave. We drove around the area to try and locate a source, none were found. The car radio signal was broken up, and cleared up as we left the area. Some remained still as others moved about in a very clear area over the ridge,there was no sound noticed,at one point a single object appeared for a very short time 20 to 30 seconds. A larger round red object with white lights ringing the edge appeared several hundred feet to the north, it disappeared as quickly as it had appeared, it did not move during the time it was seen and appeared to be the same size as the others with a different shape do to the ring of white lights which gave it a saucer type appearance. The night was clear and the objects were in plain sight and very clear in definition
