I am sure of the day, but not the year. It was Fourth of July in early afternoon. I went into my large backyard and happened to glance up. The sky was bright blue and small white clouds were traveling northward. There was one large cloud to the near northwest that was the same color as the rest, moving (sort of bubbling in place but not changing position in the sky). The smaller clouds were moving past it, above and below. Then I realized that the large, stationary cloud was mostly concealing an enormous craft. I noticed it because most of it was concealed by the cloud, except for the front and about 4 or 5 dark openings. The color of the craft was a pale, washed-out gray. From my vantage point, I couldn’t tell whether I was seeing a side view of a disc or of a cigar-shaped object. The overall effect was like seeing the nose of a cruise ship peeking out of a cloud. The structure I could observe resembled a 3-layer cake. The top layer was the smallest and had no openings. The second layer was larger and wider, and had about 4 or 5 dark, vertically rectangular openings, being a bit wider at the bottom. The rest were concealed by the cloud. The third layer was still larger and had no openings that I could see. I don’t know how big the craft was but judging from what I saw, it must have been hundreds of feet across. I have never doubted life beyond that on Earth, so the sight didn’t much affect me. I went back in the house, came out again five minutes later and it was still there. It was gone about twenty minutes after that. I should have had the presence of mind to photograph it. I have told my wife and two other people about this. I think it makes them uncomfortable.

Weld County (rural), CO
I was driving through back roads, when I suddenly see three large circular objects that were extremely bright. Each object looked about 50 feet wide and 20 feet tall. Then suddenly the lights start fading away the faster the object went. They each left after the one before it did not show any light. I recorded this, but when I looked at the video, the object which was extremely bright could not be captured by my phone. I was told another story and pictures of a U.F.O sighting on a lake in South Carolina near the border of North Carolina. I have a picture if needed .

Miami Beach, FL
As the object came over the beach it began to make erratic movements like slightly back and forth, left to right and in circles. Still this looked like a satellite, but it was changing speed and direction like nothing I'd ever seen in the sky. I pointed it out to my friend and she said the same, it looked like a satellite, then when it started moving in circles she said, "what the hell is that?" Again this looked like a satellite or star, but moved more like a drone of some sort. It was way to high to be a drone though, again planes passing were below it. It seemed somewhere between the stratosphere and mesosphere, very high up. No flashing lights or anything, maybe a weather balloon? My friend and I had seen anything in the sky move the way it did. I went into the water and came back to see if I could find it again with the stars. Again, spotted it by its movement moving towards the city away from the water, but staying above the beach.

Brownsburg, IN
I was doing Doordash (a food delivery service), driving back from Clermont, Indiana, into Brownsburg on US highway 136 I noticed a black object in the sky. At first I thought it was just a hot air balloon or something. It stayed stationary, the whole time I watched it. I turned off of 136 onto 1000 e driving back to my home, I had no other deliveries. The black circle was still just sitting in the sky so I drove up Cr400 to 900 e and got back on 136. I pulled over in a church parking lot and watched it for about another 5minutes, it never moved an inch, just hovered silently in the sky, took a pic and recorded a 15 second video.

On my phone now not sure if this will go thru. Last time I talked to any of you, 3 men 6'8 or taller came upon me and my infant children in parking lot and another man dressed like Lord of yesteryear old outdated clothing came upon us and scared me to my knees grocery store. They were mad I talked to Professor Jacobs

Millcreek, UT
On the 29th day of June 2017, approximately 11 PM at night, my infrared exterior camera alerted to me intruders in the backyard. I pulled my Camera app on my iPad, and when I saw next I have never seen on TV any video reporting as of UFOs nothing quite like this there was this beam of light coming from the sky down into my yard as though it was a helicopter shooting the spotlight problem is there was no helicopter my infrared camera also records sound no noise except for a growling her gurgling sound in the background this beam of light travel through Mallard to my neighbors' yard with high levels of background light changing from a low light to a highlight in the trees when I slow the video down you can see this beam of light as though it is hunting for something at the same time I'm watching this an object surrounds my camera and the beam of light captures that object and holds it in the beam of light to whom it may concern this may sound crazy, but I have 4 1/2 hours of non-stop video, except for one time the camera stopped working while this game of light was outside my home I physically looked outside and with my human eyes could not see anything that yet on my camera it was there and real I believe this video should be looked at researched or whatever

Goldsboro, NC
Saw a dense cloud above Goldsboro NC that stood out on a clear early morning Sun had not come up yet. All of a sudden four large perfect circles began to illuminate a greenish color followed by 3 more circular lights illuminating below the first four. The 7 circular lights continued to illuminate and disappear over a span of a minute. The moon was not visible from vantage point. Cloud slowly dissipated after the event.

4 lights in a perfect square in sky. I thought that it may have been the moon with odd fading. The 4 lights did not move but the lights faded out and re-appeared a short distance away and did not move again only fading re-assuring what I saw. I had enough time to pullout my cell phone and try to take a picture however, my phone did not capture the full image.

Observed six full moon sized and shaped lights in the southeast sky. They appeared two at a time. As the first two faded away a second and third pair appeared in quick succession. These remaining four stayed bright and faded also.

Massapequa, NY
Observed 4 glowing circles in the sky south of my house. Objects were glowing white/yellow and completely motionless. Objects then pulsed with light and 4 smaller glowing cirular objects appeared. They remained for 20-30 seconds then disappeared, appearing to burn the sky where they were. There was no commercial aircraft seen, no fireworks, no large light fixtures aiming into sky, no noises heard.

Previously submitted a report a few hours ago, I determined that the objects seen were actually a result of NASA's rocket launch. I wish to withdraw, thank you and my apologies for the false alarm.

A round glow hiding behind a cloud slowly faded and then four smaller but identical shapes appeared on all four corners, at first i thought it was the moon behind the clouds until the four shapes appeared and then faded.

By 4:15 am, I was up the hill, by my son's old Catholic school, which has a clearing, and is wide open. I was looking up at the cross, when I noticed a strange mist in the sky above. I thought it was the moon in a mist, and then a smaller misty sphere, next to it, which I thought might be its reflection. Then four spheres of the same size popped into view, and then two more smaller ones popped in as well. These six were perfectly sharp and clear and not misty. They seemed to have colors (orange, yellow and blue) and shapes that I could sort of make out. The same way they came in, they popped out, and then the sky was clear. I was awestruck.

I saw these out in the distance. I see a dark floater to my right and they make way over my house. I go outside and listen and hear nothing. Out in the distance, I see an orange glow. Way out in farm land. I assume must be a big fire maybe embers from it. Then it rises and floats over my house I recorded it bad footage but got it and you can see it pass a start as it moves, then gone.

Was driving through Corbin northbound on I-75 when we saw a bright green light circular in shape to the left above the tree tops. There was only one. Seemed to be traveling fast and then quickly disappeared.

I was outside having a cigarette and watching the skies as I always do. I noticed a fast moving craft in the western sky moving towards me and it went directly over my head, pretty much 90 degrees,toward the east. It came and went in about 2 mins. Although traveling what I thought was faster than the ISS, I initially thought it to be the ISS. I then went inside to check ISS and other satellite fly-bys, and could not find any scheduled until a Chinese satellite at 23:00. What I saw was very bright and very fast. On first sight I called my wife out to see it.

Bellingham, WA
We witnessed one object, a dark circle slowly moving west over the city, then noticed a second at a much higher altitude. They stopped and hovered for quite some time. One of the objects lowered toward the others altitude, but was still seemingly much higher in the sky. Suddenly further distant, 4 other objects came into focus and looked like pinpoints being so far away. A third closer object appeared and had a blinking light flashing an orangish color. This object quickly disappeared within a minute, the far distant objects then disappeared from sight as well. The 2 original objects slowly moved east at this point in a parallel positioning. Eventually they hovered again for a minute, then slowly seemed to rise up until they were no longer visible. They were not likely balloons, definitely not planes or helicopters, and outside the range and size of any known drone, to my knowledge. Very strange experience to witness.

I was sitting inside in my truck it was just getting dark then I saw these very small 2 blue lights heading right for me. As it got closer, they separate and the wind was so strong the truck shook. I know it sounds strange but they almost look like eyes. Black spot was in the center of the blue. no bigger than an egg. They came back around me and took off in the sky faster than any thing I have every seen. I never took any photos so it just my word. It happen in seconds.
