Indianapolis, IN

I was walking home after visiting family, and looked up and saw 3 lights roating on an unknown object. The lights were above the clouds and it was completely silent. I called my roommate to tell them what I saw. During the call, the phone cut out for a few seconds then the lights suddnly disappeared.

Kenna, WV

Me and my partner was driving back from a transport to Parkersburg and we was headed back to Charleston when in the sky we noticed a bright light that was stationary for a second or so and the it moved to the left at a high rate of speed. At first I thought it was the airport light but it was to fast and it never returned in the sky. After looking in the sky for a few mins I started to tell my partner what I saw and he interrupted me and finished what I was saying which the same story. About 15 mins later I was looking in the sky trying to repeat the experience and all of a sudden in a different are of the sky further away I seen the same thing happen again this time my partner stated that he seen it before I could say something. After driving for another 30 min we see the glow of Charleston and we can see the airport light which is yellowish on on bulb and green on the second one and no where near as bright as the anomaly we seen earlier.

Indianapolis, IN

I was returning to work after getting food on 11/28/19 around 23:50 hours and noticed 4 to 5 lights rotating in a counter-clockwise formation equally spaced apart from each other in a diameter. The lights while rotating would zoom into the center and then back out to the exact distance they originated from above the Fed Ex Hub at the airport (Above the control tower from the perspective to my location). The clouds were low hanging, no craft was visible. I thought that it was strange to be seeing that but also that it had to be some sort of ground light making this effect. I asked my senior officer about this on 12/2/19 and he stated that there is nothing that would produce that over the hub. I have not seen the pattern before or sense. I then searched the internet and located this reporting site that also has a claim of strange lights in Indianapolis roughly 15 to 20 minutes after the time I had observed them.

Russellville, AR

Took my dog out before bed and was watching jet flying east to west when it crossed path of dim white star like object moving south to north. Object caught my attention because it slowed down right before crossing path of jet in sky, then object moved slowly past that point then stopped completely. It turned bright reddish orange and grew approximately 5 times the size in about 3 seconds, then turned back into dim white light and then shot straight up disappearing almost instantly.all this happened around 10pm on a clear night sky.

Oceanside, CA

This sighting happened this morning, Thursday, November 28th, 2019 at around 8:20am. It looked somewhere northwest over Oceanside, CA. Hard to tell exactly where. I was in the Emerald/College area of Oceanside, so this was maybe over the San Luis Rey Mission area, for my best guess. The weather conditions were pre/mid storm. There had been some rain this morning and I could see rain coming down in the sunlight over to the east, so I knew there’d most likely be a rainbow. I went outside to look to the west, where there were dark clouds, and could see the rainbow out west over the ocean. As I’m viewing it, some movement catches my eye, just a little more northwest. I can see three lights moving around in very odd and fluid ways. One almost seemed to do a circle or a loop. The others were kind of moving side to side or up and down. None of this was in a rigid type way like what I’ve seen with drones. All movement was very smooth and fluid. I’m watching these three lights, and my dad was seeing it as well, agreeing it was very odd, and he had no idea what it might be as well. The lights would hover, and at times would fade or dim, and it was hard to track them, as the sky was grey, and they’d kind of fade into the grey. I’m able to see the three lights again, but all of a sudden they just went into formation. The three lights all went into a horizontal row, and two more lights suddenly appeared in this formation. So there were five lights in a row. At times it appeared there could be up to eight lights in a row at times. All moving as if they were one object, kind of up and down or left to right at times, or just hover. This is when the lights would fade out a lot more, then get brighter, and I was having more of a hard time tracking them, or telling exactly how many there were. Sometimes it would seem like more lights would appear, or sometimes change order in this formation. Eventually after watching what would appear to be a “stereotypical” UFO (a row of multiple lights, not moving in any way I’ve ever seen a plane, helicopter, or drone move) for about a minute, it just disappeared. I didn’t see it zoom off or anything. It’s almost as if it just went invisible. The weather is now a pretty strong storm, with heavy rains, and I have been hearing thunder. Lightning is expected for this storm as well. I am curious if this is related to the expected lightning storm, as I’ve seen other weird sightings in the sky during storms.

Chicago, IL

My husband set up his phone for a time lapse video in the alley behind our garage as he loaded his pickup truck. The video shows him loading, then driving away (forgot his phone was on the fence. After he drove away, the video shows the phone shifted it’s focus up above the garage. He then returns and begins looking for the phone. While he is looking, two white lights appear in the sky over the garage. Even though the phone is still on time lapse video, the lights don’t move and you can see clouds are moving over the lights. A third light appears briefly forming a triangle. No craft is apparent - just lights. We are married, have 3 daughters, and two dogs. We both own our own businesses and my husband runs Christmas tree lots - why he was loading his truck early morning.

Happy Valley, OR

A blue-green light silently moved back and forth for approximately 5 minutes. The green light appeared to be the brightest part of it. As it turned, a dimmer white light was visible. I have no idea what it was. I've never seen a meteor, satellite, plane, or other aircraft behave this way.

Lago Vista, TX

LOCATION I live in the hill country which extends within the northwest quadrant of Travis County, Texas at an elevation of 1100 feet above M.S.L. Some of the hills immediately to the west of my home reach 1300+ feet. This location is relevant to my subject report because when the wind is from the south, my home is within 1 mile of a flight path before it enters into its southern bound final leg into Austin Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA). In other words, aircraft is relatively low as they descend over my area of the hill country. ABIA’s air traffic has increased substantially the past 5 years. With southerly winds present on a clear night and from dusk to midnight, one may sometimes see the landing lights of up to 4 east bound descending ABIA flights that are lined up to the west of our town before passing overhead. SIGHTING EVENT At 6:31 pm, 23rd day of November, 2019, I stepped onto my back porch to relieve my dog. My porch faces west, so when I go outside I always glance to the west horizon to view flights approaching Austin. This night was overcast with a cloud deck at about 2000 feet, however. I knew then that flights would be obscured by the low clouds and, moreover, a cold front had passed through our area earlier in that morning. This wind shift from the north means that flights would be approaching ABIA from southern Travis County, Texas. Nevertheless, I was astonished when I saw 6 bright lights in a line about 15 degrees above the horizon and estimated at no more than 4 miles to the west. The soundless lights were situated in the sky whereby they would be close to the area of approaching east bound ABIA flights. I immediately omitted aircraft landing lights due to the weather conditions mentioned above. My first impression was that flares had just been dropped but I did not hear aircraft, nor were the lights making a descent. Instead, they moved very slowly to the south in a horizontal direction. As I watched in amazement for about 60 seconds, 2 of these lights began to flicker out, then reappear after which the outer lights began to flicker out. Another 30 seconds had elapsed while viewing the remaining 4 lights in which event I decided to close my jaw dropping mouth and pull my phone out of my pocket to start a video. VIDEO SEQUENCE Please bear in mind that my life indulgences exclude social media and texting all day; nor do I use more than 2 apps on my phone. I seldom keep my phone on my person when at home, but this time I was lucky to have done so. I am deeply upset, however, that the video is shaky and poorly documented. The lights are not moving rapidly, but rather my excited hand. The noise is partly north winds and mostly noise from a nearby busy road. After fumbling with my phone to retrieve my camera app, now 30 seconds more had elapsed before I started my 3 minute video. Upon such start, only 2 lights now remained. By this time, the remaining lights had traveled behind the T-Braces on top of a telephone pole. I quickly moved to another higher location in frames 1-15. Midway through frame 17, I am able to video the two remaining lights before the first disappears, then last light goes out by frame 30. I continue to zoom the sky again when 1 light reappears in frame 55 and snuffs out in frame 59. I scanned the overcast sky for another 2 minutes with no avail. Only regrets that I am bad cameraman.

They were the same shape and colour as all the other stars in the sky. Didn’t flash or change shape, and we’re silent.

Powell, TN

Triangular object observed hovering east of Powell traveling from northeast then turning southeast. Witnesses could not see an actual object with the three lights but there did appear to be something there as they saw a possible outline. Numerous people in the Powell area have reported this and many have discussed it on facebook. Still shot and video provided. (MUFON CMS)

Hampstead, NC

While on a cruise off of Italy on the above time and date my friend and I observed a very bright oval shape, strange orange color light above the water between are ship and Italy. We stared at it for a few seconds, and then in a split second the oval shape changed to a straight light as it shot up into the sky. We both said if we did not see it we wouldn't believe it! We did not see any solid object in this incident.

Indianola/Canadian (between), OK

We looked through a pair of binoculars (5x30 Bushnell) and it appeared there were colored lights around the objects. As we started to check the lights out a general aviation plane flew between our position and the lights and it appeared to be at about 5,000 (I'm a student pilot). He could have seen them. Then cloud cover came in and it was hard to tell if they were dimming or not. Then clouds covered them up. We ended trying to see more. With no movement like that I suppose they may have been two stars, but they seemed far to bright for that and I've never seen stars in that position with that level of brilliance ever before.

Columbus, NE

I went to let my dogs out at approx 6:10am this morning it was still pretty dark out yet so visibility was pretty good In the night sky with very little if not any cloud cover. I often look up at the sky this time of year because of the waterfowl usually flying over. I happened to notice a bright white light traveling from west southwest towards the Northeast. I thought nothing of it at first because we typically see allot of satellites traveling over head in the night and early morning. I watched it for a minute then happened to see another one trailing behind the first one and it appeared to be a few to several miles behind the initial light. I thought that to be strange but not completely out of the ordinary. Then I saw another and another and another. Then sometimes 2 close together but not connected. Then another and another. It was a constant stream of separate lights all flying in the same direction at presumably the same altitude. It was quiet and very little wind so I could hear that they made no noise and no vapor trail was visible. As we see many commercial jets fly over all the time and they are easy to differentiate. I yelled at my son To come outside to see if he could see what I was seeing and he and I stood and watched no less than 57 separate flying objects passed over in a 20 min period flying on that same heading. Sometimes pretty good distances apart and several flying fairly close together. But we felt the pattern was quite random to be sure. I am a military vet and I’ve seen allot of different strategic flying formations, from both Navy and Air Force and I felt this was just to weird to ignore. We counted 57 but am not sure how long it had been going on before I spotted em. We tried recording the images but they were to small to pick up on our phone cameras.

Florence, OR

At 6:00 AM I was taking out the garbage. When I looked up at the sky I saw two lights similar in appearance to stars moving east northeast across the handle of the big dipper. It was partly cloudy, with a large break of clear sky. When the two object disappeared from view to the east, I looked back to the west and saw more moving lights irregularly spaced; but all in a straight line on the same heading east northeast. Two of the lights were side-by-side and one light had a much dimmer light traveling at it’s side. The points of light were bright white at varying distances from each other and occasionally one or more would increase in speed momentarily. There were 18 to 20 of them all on the same heading, eventually traveling through the handle of the Big Dipper and then disappearing from view in the eastern sky. They were traveling much faster than a satellite, and much slower than a meteorite. The whole viewing event took appx. 2-3 minutes.

Victoria (Canada), BC · Canada

My wife and I (so glad I had a witness) saw, what at first looked like satellites gliding through the sky, but upon closer observation, we saw that there were many of them, all in a straight line across the SSE sky.  We saw at least three dozen separate lights, in formation, heading east, over a few minutes, most of them in line, the odd one to the side.  The "satellites" did not appear on iphone video footage.

Olympia, WA

I went out for a walk at 5:50 AM PST and was surprised that it was a clear night sky, since I went to bed to heavy rain. As I walked south on our loop taking in the amazing stars, I saw what appeared to be 2 stars moving from my left to right – they appeared to be a similar distance apart as two stars in the big dipper handle. They were moving quite rapidly, and my initial assumption was that it was the space station but, then told myself there wouldn’t be two. I watched for about a minute and was going to run back to the house to wake my wife to see it… as I paused, I noticed a whole stream of similar lights following in somewhat equidistant distance but in a following formation. There were about 10 in total zooming from west to east. At this point, I ran in, woke up my wife and had her outside in less than 2 minutes hoping they were not gone… to my surprise, I saw the tail end of the original set, with a new set that were heading east in a slightly more northeast direction which were led by 4 lights and then another 6 or more trailing single file. They all moved from west to east and disappeared from sight because of the trees – we have tall trees in the neighborhood, so I would assume my viewing angle is about 40 degrees west to east.. There were no sounds and they were quite small like the space station – I watched as an airplane passed just minutes later and I could faintly hear the jet as it passed and the jet “light” footprint was larger than the unidentified lights. My initial thoughts… - I am up every morning for years and have never witnessed anything like this before, though I often see aircraft and hear them since SeaTac airport is about 40 miles north of us - There were 2 distinct sets of objects – the first moving east on a slight southerly tangent, the second which my wife also saw moving east on a slight northerly tangent - The distance between the objects was not consistent – it appeared if one would speed up to catch another but I never saw one move past the one in front of it; they were definitely a group and they were definitely trailing each other in a very organized fashion - They moved rapidly across the sky, similar to the international space station moves in relation to my view We live near JBLM and our initial thought was military aircraft… but 20 or more? That would be a lot of military craft. With no sound accompanying? With the ability at a distance to close the gaps between them in seconds?

Bend, OR

I was looking up in a north easterly direction through a gap in the trees. It was dark. I saw what I thought was a satellite. The light was a little brighter than the usual satellite but not as bright as the space station. Then I saw another light appear from behind the trees following in the same trajectory as the first one I saw. They just kept coming. There were at least thirty if not more. Sometimes they travelled in pairs side by side but all travelled in the same line. There may have been more that preceded the ones I saw but I can only vouch for the ones I saw when I first looked up at the sky. I watched until no more passed by. It took about two minutes for them to all pass.
