Minutes after fireworks I had noticed an orange fireball in the sky. It was moving fast and it skipped speed a few times. This lasted about a minute until the object went into a cloud or disappeared.

Damascus, MD
Saw many red fireball spheres moving sequentially across the sky along a path through the property over Damascus, Maryland on December 31, 2020 just before midnight on New Years Eve. These same orbs look like the ones seen in Kiawah Island just off the South Carolina coast, about 25 miles south of Charleston on Christmas Eve 2018. They were identical with a multidimensional glow. I would say they looked more like living organic cells that transformed from an internal yellow to a central darker nucleus or went through some nuclear transformation or altering gene state when it passed over head and got closer to me video taping. Between scene shot 1.58 to 1.59 you see this cell cycle transition in the sky.

My wife and I along with her son watched a orange pulsating light cross the sky It appeared in the northeast sky towards the horizon and traveled slowly towards the east. No sound, no erratic motion. About an hour later 23:30 there was a second object. Same size Followed the same path. The airport is south of my location and I have never seen aircraft following that flight path

This fireball looking object was moving in a sporadic pattern from vertical to zig zag formation's hiding behind clouds as much as possible. when the 2nd plane passed by this fireball object froze in the sky as it passed by the fireball object started moving in the same pattern's as it was, almost as if it didn't want to be seen moving in the sky as the plane passed by. Now at 8:30pm this fireball looking object is sitting still in the night sky in the S to SW position. after this we grabbed more family member's to come outside and look at what we saw. still looking at it in our telescope as the night goes on. still no movement.

we are looking west as we walk out toward the trucks from house as seen at the bottom of screen . It was coming at us going East, then stopped for about a minute then started going back toward the west over The hill going west toward Roosevelt . A few miles away it shot straight up into the sky out of sight. Strangest anomaly I have seen.

Just prior to sunset a coworker radioed that there was something burning in the sky. When went to see a bright orange glowing object was moving from east to west at a speed that to me appeared to be standing still. Two other objects were observed in line of sight but dismissed as aircraft. It was not the object that I noticed when I looked but the change in color of the sunset. I observed the sunset just a few minutes earlier before I had gone into a building which was a vivid gold color. When I was called out to see the object the entire western horizon had been muted to a purplish grey haze. After the object was no longer in sight (went below horizon) the bright vivid colors of the sunset returned. Shape was oblong-globe with a short trail left behind. Speculated that it was possibly a sayalite that had reentered the outer atmosphere A coworker photographed the event at 16:46 hours, I photographed the sunset at 15:03 hours to show contrast between the grey horizon during the event vs the normal sunset after the event.

OK
On, or around, December 14th. The events span hours on 287 in the late evening/night until maybe 03:00-05:00. I was heading south on US-287 from Denver way towards either Cactus TX or Guymon OK to pickup a meat load. Pretty sure it was Cactus due to the date on my most recent freight bills, but i must have passed by Guymon along the way after I left the shipper to end up on Us-412 e/b. I remember Guymon because it was the other load pickup location from Dec 7th or 8th that I keep wanting to confuse this report occurance with. On the way down 287 I remember watching what looked like sporadic 'meteor'? showers. Not many.. just one here or there within some random span of 10 or 15 minutes, but at least for an hour (if not two) I can vaguely recollect about 5 to 7 meteor fireballs (light in color like a white or light blue).. From their trajectory, distance and speed I assumed at least one was heading towards Santa Fe, the Jicarilla Apache lands, or somewhere around Alamosa by way of looking at my gps when i zoomed out for one in particular. Others seemed more South on my route at what at the time seemed like Amarillo because they were so seemingly far away. These occurances didnt alarm me at all, especially at first. However, after I received my load and weighed and was heading east on US-412, on the straight stretch from Hardesty, Balko, and May, maybe 20 to 30 minutes past Guymon as I remember it, I seen one of the same colored comets or meteors within 1/2 mile to 2 miles falling at low altitude (maybe as low as 50-100 yards before I lost sight of its impact point) south of US-412, but it was much closer, and now that it was closer I knew its size was much smaller. The only thing that had alarmed me, and still does, is that all night long the others had fell diagonally/slanted approach.. but this one fell straight down. Straight as can be. The otger thing i found odd at the time was sign i passed on 412 for some kind of observatory or scientific study station within 10ish minutes of where I seen it fall straight down. Upon researching the county today (which is roughly how i found this site) I didnt discover anything super odd except an occurance of numerous elk surrounding a bear at a feeder. Though, to note, there is the Pantex Nuclear Facility south of the area where I had seen at least one of the diagonal comets/meteors going (towards Amarillo). I hope I didnt waste your time in reporting this, but Ive never seen one fall straight down like that, esoecially in an area with such obscure side road naming conventions; Theyre all numbers. I wish I had more exact times and dates.

I was standing outside on the front porch and I saw 2 fireball like objects floating through the sky flying at a fast speed. Faster than any planes fly. They were semi low in the sky and flying right behind each other. Then all of a sudden a third one came out of nowhere and followed the first two. They didnt make any noise in the air and they were almost circular in shape and all lit up red. As quickly as they came they were gone. It was amazing!

I was sitting in the car and I saw a big orange fireball going across the sky, then it went away. Then two more came and were traveling across the sky. Then those went away and then a couple seconds later, two more came out of no where again for the 3rd time. The last 2 then continued to travel across the sky as well. It was not a plane, and not a drone, the lights were too big and the behavior was odd. I have a few videos from in the car

Traveling north in the vehicle I was driving on PA Route 168, at approximately 19:25 hours on Dec. 10th 2020, bordering Raccoon Creek State Park, I witnessed a very bright blue light travel east to west across almost the entire width of the night sky. I can’t describe it as an aircraft because it flew well below where planes usually fly, about where low clouds usually float, and at such a super high rate of speed; way faster than any man-made aircraft. I did not see an actual object; just saw what appeared to be the fiery, sparking, bluish bright tail of some super-sonic object. There may have been a reddish, orangish tip, but the light I saw can be described as the tail of a rocket. The windows were up in the vehicle I was driving and I did not hear any sound, which surprised me, given the fairly low altitude the object traveled. It only took about 3 seconds to travel across almost the entire night sky, and then I suddenly lost sight of it; much like it just disappeared. I actually kind of waited for an explosion or a ‘boom,’ but nothing. After driving about a couple hundred yards from where I last saw it, I pulled off into the Nichol Rd parking lot of the state park and looked back to where the object flew over. To my surprise, there was a distinct line of what appeared to be smoke across the entire width of the clear, starry sky, exactly where this object traveled! Against the night sky, this smokey line it was visible to naked eye, as well as the stars in the sky, however my iphone could not capture this remarkable sight. This was the proof that something of sheer volume and speed had indeed traveled through our atmosphere. Again, the altitude seemed! to be about where clouds are normally seen. I made a couple of calls to friends to report what I had witnessed. I stayed in this parking lot for about an hour; watching the sky and viewing the smokey line. It took an extremely long time for it to start fading away. Even at the half-hour mark, it was still very distinct and visible. It did very slowly start to shorten and fade to the south after about an hour. The only thing I could compare this smokey line to was what one of those “skywriter” crafts leave behind, but they are only seen during the day; their lines fade much faster; and they are flown at extreme high altitudes. This sighting was indeed like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Its shape, behavior, speed, and character was like nothing from this planet. It left behind a distinct travel path which proved its flight through our sky. I just wish I could’ve viewed it longer; I wish I would’ve seen it coming and been ready with a camera; I wish someone else had been with me to share in this strange experience; I wish there were other reports of this and more evidence to prove what exactly this UFO was! Perhaps we’ll never know. I hope that the information I provided here leads to some more proof and discovery. Thank you for taking the time to read my experience.

Two fairly slow moving objects, one following the other in a perfectly straight line moving west to east. No sound whatsoever. Both were primarily red and white in color and looked like slow moving fireballs. Took a video on my smartphone. Zoomed in on the second object using pinch and un-pinch. Playing the video, it flashed brightly one time. Never have seen anything like it in my life. Full moon tonight over North GA. I was outside shooting street Christmas lights in our neighborhood. Looked up into the western sky as I walked home at which time I witnessed the sighting. College educated male, age 74.

I live in a tall bldg near bye the MIA/AEP - Clear night full moon on top, taking out my telescope from the balcony observed flying east bound targeting the AEP a fireball. Wind was calm and planes departing to the east contrary of the object direction. Using my binoculars saw an AA plane at 3Kft 150m/p/h, the fireball was at 4500ft and the plane at 27 AVE & 7 NW ST turned to the south east direction, that was the encounter point. Followed the object that near 37 AVE & 7 NW ST turned North and the fireball turned off. I followed with the binoculars and the back was like a silver coin. No Beacon, No red or green light, no a chopper or balloon, wind was calm. Checked at MIA DEP, AA got a flight to Santiago Chile, departed at 21:09. I bet that the MIA/AEP radar must have something or AA Pilot.

My cousin an I were looking up at the sky when we noticed a bright orange or fire colored object moving across sky. Object was moving in a straight horizontal line at pretty fast speed relative to apparent altitude. However, we were not able to distinguish any features due to brightness of object. We followed it down the street in which it appeared to get smaller and smaller and disappear. The distance it covered was not far enough to become that small before disappearing. There was no sound so it couldn't of been a helicopter and no wind to propel a paper fire lantern that fast.

After our Thanksgiving feast, we decided to sit around the firepit in the backyard,to talk some and catch up. It was my husband and three of my cousins.it was approximately 10:45 PM. We had started talking about the moon, suddenly my cousin who came home from base for Thanksgiving, he's a coasty gets up to grab some water, as he is walking back he says " wtf is that? Come here, hurry!! We got up away from the tree that was blocking our view, and saw 4 orbs the size of a beach ball. At first it was one out of nowhere, split into four, two went to the left and two to the right. Some dissapeared and the last one stayed in the sky moving away descending, until it also dissapeared. No sound, and the cor was red/orange glow.We cant explain what it was, but it was so strange and real.We managed to record the last orb in the sky.
