8 lights going spinning in big circles. Very hard to get a footage as its mostly only vidible to the eyes not video camera. Got few photos. Very interesting. It kept on rotating in the same way for hours.

Eden Prairie, MN
Just south of Eden Prairie, a large circle comprised of about 14-18 lights shining through the clouds (whitish, bluish). No noise. No movement. Still looking at it as I type. Never been on this site before, but googled it when I saw this. Advertising lights at a casino. Source of the report elects to remain anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Germantown, MD
At approximately 05:45 on April 28, 2017, I witnessed a single bright star like object in the southern sky of Germantown, MD. The Sky was dark and had absolutely no stars or planets visible. Just this single stationary bright round object. It never once moved on any plane. It was too high to be a helicopter and displayed no aircraft characteristics. I picked up a passenger and 5 minutes into their trip (I am UBER driver) we both required the object. Being I was driving I could not keep an eye on it. After dropping passenger off, I could not re-aquire the object. I am wondering if it was Space Station? Only object I can think of. I am surprised no other reports seemed to have surfaced.

Temple hills, MD
While sitting on my front porch talking with my nephew, I looked to the right of my porch overhand and saw a glowing orange object floating over the tree line. It looked odd as if to paulsate. I looked to see if there were any navigational lights and could see none. I immediately called to my nephew to come see as the object cruzed past the house heeding northwest. There is a military base near to my house, (Andrews Airforce Base). As the object flew near that direction, the orange light went out and we could still see the the silliwet of the object which was now black without distinct form at the distance. The object made no sound as it cruised by and eventually faded from sight. My nephew thinks it was some new military technology. I believe it was not of this world. I have seen other objects such as see through cigar shape objects flying as low as street lights, making no sound at all with others there to witness this event also. Many times they are fl! ying towards the military base and lights go out as they pass over it. This event on the 28th of April, was the first time I've seen the orange ball. At the time of this sighting, the sky's were clear and the object appeared to be within a few thousand feet from my house and approximately 5-6 hundred feet in the air.

The date above is flawed, so we have amended it, but we are unsure whether the alleged sighting occurred on the morning of April 28th, or 29th, but we have no means for contacting the source to confirm the correct date.

Colorado Springs, CO
I was standing outside on my last break at work staring at the stars. There were about 15 satellites that I saw flying overhead before the signing. This object seemed to appear out of nowhere as an incredibly fast moving light in the cloud, making very sporadic movements and making no sound. It flew directly overhead and underneath a cloud that was reflecting the city lights. That is when I could see the round nature of this object. It slowed down when it was directly above, and then it continued on its way before completely disappearing. This was absolutely insane.

Beattyville, KY
Saw a weird light hovering above some trees. Looked like a star, at first glance. After looking for a while you could see different colors, and it looked like a beam of light came from it a time or two. It slowly went away but was very strange. Completely silent. Some quick flashes, hardly noticeable. Hopefully it's not Russia.

Ponca City, OK
((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) This is a watercolor I tried to make as close to what I saw. It was late, and very dark out. Storms to the southeast direction caused the occasional flash, which is why I put yellow in the sky. We were so high, could not see much of the ground. A bit of wispy clouds below. The half circle with lights was bigger than the saucer nearby. Both were very bright!!! First one was difficult to see details, except the lights. 2nd was glowing the orangy/yellow/pink. I saw this scene for maybe a minute or two, my niece was asleep, so I said nothing. I do not know if anyone saw it but I suspect the pilot did because he flipped on the cabin lights and I could no longer see anything outside. ((END ADDENDUM)) Witness has submitted a rather detailed illustration, done in watercolor, of the craft she witnessed. Please see the NUFORC homepage posting for April 28, 2017. Also, she has corrected the time and date to 23:45 hrs. (CDT on Tuesday night, April 25, 2017. PD

The craft flew West to east across the bottom part of Tampa Bay, the flight path put it directly south of MacDill AFB, it was flying at incredible speed. The craft was just below cloud level and suddenly arced upward through the cloud cover, produced no engine noise of any kind. The object from my best guess was probably 20-30 feet in diameter and gave off a pale yellow light.

Next thing I know, it started moving close to my balcony has if it knew I was watching. It got close to the street. It was hovering, the birds on the tree scattered and I ran inside scared... Couldn't believe what I had just witnessed. Put me in a lie detector test. I know what I saw. It lasted about 12 minutes. Try to capture with my cell, I just couldn't, it moved too fast. Never thought this will happen to me. The images are vivid in my mind. I actually ran inside my house. That's how scared I was. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she sounded to be quite sincere about the sighting. PD

I have seen this craft before. It hovers on top of mount benson in Nanaimo, BC. The first time I seen it, I thought it was a star. Then my husband seen it and said it was flashing lights between white, red and green. I don't have good vision, so I couldn't see that. We watched it for a bit and it moved around a little from side to side or up and down. Then it was gone. Then I seen it again last night April 24, 2017. This is the third time I have seen it there. Same position. Although the this time it did change positions. It kept getting closer to the mountain until it was right at the mountains top or it could have been on the other side of the mountain going down. This time I could see the flashing lights, sometimes they seemed to be brighter. Red, green and white. I watched it on and off for about 30 minutes until it slowly disappeared over the side of the mountain. I'm not familiar with ufos or aircraft. But this seems not average. We have photos and videos but they are very bad quality, as they were taken with an iPhone or cell phone. I will keep looking every night now at the same times to see if this is something that happens frequently.

my daughter took a video at approx 15.00hrs of 3 grey circular objects, she described as looking like hockey pucks tumbling in the sky. They possibly had lights or could have been the suns reflection. the only explanation i could find was police drones as were in lockdown due to Covid. i found another video from the next town to us of one of the same objects posted on twitter, same date and approximate time. fast forward to yesterday and i found another video posted to twitter dated 5 days ago taken in Wigan, UK (a long way from us) of the exact same objects again tumbling through the sky. they don’t appear to be drone behaviour in my opinion or that of the other 2 who took their videos. a UFO twitter account looked at them and does not think they are drones and believes they have an aura. another person has also tweeted today about possibly seeing the same but at night. this is my daughters video https://twitter.com/anthillmob74/status/1263381481407361024?s=21 the other video from the same day locally: https://twitter.com/callumrckb/status/1251548869818802176?s=21 this is the wigan sighting, i believe he saw 8 in total https://twitter.com/moggsuk/status/1261734746528387076?s=21 and this is the possible night sighting https://twitter.com/sxnshxne2/status/1263442407443529728?s=21

Saw a literal perfect sphere that was at my tree line of our house. Watched for at least 4 minutes, don't know how long it was there was just getting home. Took 3 pictures, doesn't capture the brightness or the size well but it does show the perfect sphere. It instantly disappeared. No trace, no light trail, nothing it was gone.
