Philadelphia, PA
In the back of our home in the Roxborough section of Philadelphia. It was still dark, and I went to let the dog out because it was barking abnormally. It never barks at this time, I simply thought it had to go relieve itself. I opened the door and I heard a loud buzz, looked up and saw three lights in a triangle form. They moved east very fast, but still within my sight line, then back west very fast and stopped in the air, I actually rubbed my eyes and looked back, screamed for the dog to come back, then went up to get my wife, she saw the same thing, this time we watched from our second floor balcony. And they were making strange movements, nothing like an aircraft I have ever seen or known about. Very odd experience. We recorded it on my wife's cell phone.

Ellicott City (outside of), MD
On the Morning of Monday, December, 29th, 2014, my mother and I were driving back to Pennsylvania from a trip to Florida. As we drove through the state of Maryland, at approximately 3:55 AM, according to the dash board clock, I noticed a large bright light glide over interstate 95, almost directly over our car, just enough to get my attention. I was driving about 70 mph and pressed my face against the front windshield to get a better look at it, and to my amazement, I saw a triangle craft with two oval lights on the back corners of the craft and a large red light in the center. I could also make out a very dark point on the craft which I thought to be the front of it, or the tip of the triangle. It stopped and hovered over a group of trees as I drove down the highway. I quickly screamed to my sleeping mother in the passenger’s seat to look out her window. She woke up and immediately saw what I was yelling about. She was mesmerized. I was trying to look at the craft and the road at the same time and that was when I noticed that the edges of the craft were more rounded, almost like a popsicle stick. It had two layers, on the bottom was the color of the cloudy night sky, and the top was a very brilliant black color. I fumbled for my phone that had a camera attached to it and my mom watched as it hovered over a group of trees. It hovered only about five to ten feet over the tree tops. She got a better view of the craft and said that the red light in the center of the “V” was very “unusual” and very large and red. When I took out the camera to take the picture, I aimed the camera towards it, but it went from a stationary position above the tree line, to completely disappearing out of view and I couldn’t get the picture taken. She told me that when I took out the camera and aimed it, it was almost as if “the UFO knew I was about to take a picture and took off”. We both became very excited from what we just saw and then I took notice! of the time and it read, 3:55 AM. The approaching exit that ! was then seen was for the Ellicott City off ramp.

Carmel, NY
Coming out of Carmel cinema, we saw 2 red triangles flying parallel closely to the ground, making no noise. They were flying slowly and then one started to blink until it disappeared. Soon after the other one started to blink and disappeared over the woods. Then driving home we saw 2 more and pulled into the parking lot at Carmel diner to get a better look. They were traveling very low and very slow in the same direction as the other 2, towards Carmel theater until we lost sight of them.

Thetford, VT
We were driving north on I-91 from hanover to Thetford when we saw 3 orange lights above us in triangular formation flying southward. We rolled down the window to listen but there was no noise. We did not see any structure. It seemed pretty low...2500 feet maybe? Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Mentor Headlands, OH
My husband called me to the front door. I went and looked at what he wanted me to see. There was a triangular pulsating light in the sky that would move left to right. When it stood still, it dropped a flashing orb from it, it seemed from beneath. The triangular object slowly went from left to right, stood still and then vanished. It was far away but we could make out the shape along with the orb.

Chelsea, AL
I walked outside in my back yard around 8:45 pm CST and noticed 8 stationary objects in the NE sky. They each had 3 red lights and appeared to have a triangle shape. The objects hovered in a semi-circle formation for approx 3-5 mins and then disappeared. There wasn't any type of noticable sound like you would hear with a normal airplane. This was definitely not anything I've ever seen before!

Templeton, CA
Standing outside in the afternoon when I heard a buzzing. I work at a military base and know what the electric UNmanned aerial vehicles sound like- a high pitched buzzing. Saw the triangle craft fly low and slowly overhead maybe under 500 feet altitude. Flew slowly along well established flight line from east to west. It was a rounded edged triangles the same shape as the TR-3B (Google it), though without the central light. What I saw looked like a small duty aircraft in similar shape as the Boeing X-48- it even sounded similar thought it's underbelly was white and grey. It had lights like a normal aircraft. Everyone thinks I'm crazy but I know what I saw. Perhaps it was an RC remote controlled craft. Please post of you saw something similar in the vicinity. My dog was out with me but had no abnormal response. Thank you

Hialeah, FL
December 26, 2014, around 8:30pm. 2 witness myself included, looked up to sky was cloudy and kind of reddish in color almost like a winter sky right before it snows; flying from NE to SW first saw one triangular object and immediately behind it another, orange and white lights, very quiet and the lights were very bright especially at each point this lasted a little more than 2 minutes and then they just disappeared. I know what we saw and am glad someone else was with me. Witness provides no contact information. PD

Fairbanks, AK
headed into Fairbanks on Parks Hwy, saw three triangle-shaped lights--thought they were plane lights and planes were about to collide. Two of the lights disappeared, but third light stayed one for quite some time.

Red Lodge, MT
While walking out to my car I saw a silent triangle craft that consisted of 3 faint orange balls. One at tip and two at bottom forming a triangle. I watched as it glided silently above me in a straight line before taking a sharp left angle turn like it was on rails. It appeared to be blending in with the night sky aside from its faint orange engines (if that's what they are). 10:30 pm Red Lodge, MT.

Rancho Cordova, CA
I am a 56 year old woman of sound mind. I have been married to my second husband for 8 years. He was in the other room at the time. The exact time is not clear, but I believe it was between 6-7 pm. I saw the UFO from my bedroom window in the northern sky. At first, I noticed a flashing light, which at first glance, I thought to be an airplane as we live right next to Mather AFB. Then I noticed the triangle shaped object. It was pointed like an arrow with a space between the two sides. The color is what really caught my attention; it was a bright florescent green color. I knew this was no ordinary plane. Suddenly, the flashing light stopped and it shot into space leaving a bright green trail behind. It was so fast, it could not have been an airplane. It was blinking, then sped away. Amazing.

Dim Red glowing boomerang shaped craft looked as if it was hovering but moving forward fast not in a straight line, As if flown like remote control helicopter.

As they moved they began to separate in groups of 3 forming into triangles after a couple of minutes they were gone.

Avon Lake, OH
I was driving home from a friend's house by the lake when I saw what I thought at the time was a low flying plane with green and red lights flying away from me. About 8 minutes later, as I turned away from the lake heading towards my house, I saw the same lights over a housing development. I then witnessed the lights stopping over a house and saw that they were in a triangular formation. One light was green on light was red and one light was clear. The triangular shape was about the same size of the house and low enough that I could make out the edges of the shape. I put my car in park by the house across the street from the house that the triangle was over intending to take a picture or video when it started moving away. I then proceeded to follow it around until it stopped over enough development closer to the lake. The same pattern of following the shape and stopping under or near it continued for approximately 20 minutes. It hovered over the high school softball field, various neighborhoods, and road intersections. Whenever it would move the green and red lights went out while the clear light remained blinking. I was able to take a short video of the clear blinking light moving. I was on the phone with my brother from half of the event and then I stopped following the triangular shape to pick him up to show him what I was describing to him. We went in the direction that I last saw it heading, but was unable to find it again after 20 minutes of searching.

Hattiesburg, MS
I was with my boyfriend, Driving on a long stretch of highway 98 in Perry County, MS. We saw light go across the sky, left to right. Didn't think much of it, assumed it was a plane. We continued to see these light pass back and forth across the road, at a distance, several times. Eventually, it seemed to align with the road and for a moment we thought it was a plane emergency landing, since it was a long, straight strip of highway. But instead, it seemed to kind of hover then cross the road again. The last time it appeared, it crossed the road very slowly and low to the ground. This was the first time we got a good look and realized it was definitely not a normal airplane. It was kind of triangular in shape. It had some white lights, and a blinking red light. It went very slowly, like barely faster than a hover, and eventually disappeared behind the tree line.

LaBelle, FL
My co-workers and I work in the next own over. After our shift we were headed back to our homes, we car pool together, all 11 of us in company van. About 5 minutes before entering LaBelle, FL. (the city we live in) while driving North on State Road 29, I was looking at the sky and almost as if out of nowhere a White Triangular craft manifested itself through the clouds in the East. I yelled to my co- workers "Ovni! OVNI!!!!!" ( Which is Spanish for UFO). Everyone immediately looked up and it almost seemed as if time, inside the van, slowed down immensely. I felt as if the van was just smoothly floating down the road. A few seconds went by, (5-10 by my estimation) and after moving a few miles to the West, the craft disappeared into nothing. As if it just collapsed into itself and it was gone. I've always heard of black triangular shaped crafts, but never a white one, which just added to the strangeness. This one had many of the same characteristics as its black counter parts. It was totally silent, it showed no exhaust system, and it seemed to defy the laws of aerodynamics gliding flawlessly through the air at a slow speed. It's hard for me to be sure of it's exact size, since I have no reference points to do the trigonometry, but if I had to estimate it's size, I would say it is somewhere in between 35-40 ft in length, from the front tip to the back of the craft and 25-35 ft in maximum width from one of the back corners to the other. I realize this is much smaller than the black triangles that have been reported, which is also a bit strange. I don't know if the two have anything in common besides the obvious, I just hope more people see it.

Fort Mill, SC
Noticed an usual series of lights at a much lower altitude than the planes that often circle before landing at the Charlotte Douglas airport. There were apron 13 bright white lights in what appeared to to be a straight up and down configuration.. As I continued down rt160, the bright white lights went away and I say a triangular solid against the gray background , and lights were seen in each point of the triangle.. The up and down bank of lights was no longer viewable. As I continued to observe, it was clear that he craft was banking, so saw the lights head on as banking and the lights were were facing away from me, then the underside was viewable..

Lenoir City, TN
My wife and I were on our way to work. She said what's that. I turned to see a triangular very dark in color, probably black, shaped object. It "flew"-"hovered" extremely slow just over the powerlines. It had two constant lights in the bottom center and flashing lights on its extreme edges. It was massive. It made NO noise to be heard. Our first thought was at that speed and altitude that it was on a controlled crash coarse for a field a half mile away. No crash reported. We did not know who to tell or what to do.

I was coming home from work when I noticed 3 bright lights (red ,blue, green) that where flashing in pattern. The craft was stationary at 120°SE. Over the course of and hours it has slowly moved upward as if it's getting farther away. It was silent and very bright lights.
