Kirksville, MO
Lights appeared at 10 o’clock high in sky traveling southwest to northeast. They traveled in mostly straight line formation and made no noise. One of the few not in formation seemed to join each other and become one light. The entire sighting lasted from 0530 to about 0600 and approximately 65 to 85 lights were observed

At approximately 0530 on 24 November 2019, I observed approximately 10-12 white "stars" moving from the Southwest to the Northeast in a perfect linear formation. All of the "stars" were equally spaced between each other and traveling at a constant speed. There was one "star" on the left flank of the formation approximately 8 "stars" back from the lead "star." There were no blinking lights observed, as they were all a constant star-like coloration. The weather conditions were clear and no sounds were heard. I am a retired military officer (23 years). Based upon my extensive military experience, I am 100% confident that this was NOT a military aviation formation, as the speed of the "stars" and number of craft observed do not support a military aircraft scenario

This is a regular early morning walk near our lake with my coffee on weekends around 5am each morning, i know the area here lived all my life near here,across the lake i always see Toronto, CN tower , lights during day have watch many planes begin there decent across lake to land at Pearson Toronto Airport, This morning on my 5am walk,.over the lake across Toronto, was lower clouds, but just above the sky was clear i looked up scanning the sky admiring the stars,looked over to southeast where the moon was, could see the whole shape of moon but just at bottom of the moon was the thin light from it to be seen, beautiful.As i was standing for several minutes looking at the moon, it was then i thought there is a white plane light going across the sky just above moon, but thats when i noticed another, then another, same speed, spaced almost evenly, so where i was standing the moon looked to be about 2 feet above in distance,the lights were about 4 inches above t! hat distance plain in comparison ,i was thinking ok these lights were planes going across lake ontario to land at Toronto Airport, but then i remember my wife telling me about the landing restrictions now in place from midnight till 6:30am ,now i'm thinking ok, what are these lights, why are they going about as fast as you see planes fly way up in sky watch day in flight, this low, but evenly spaced, thats when i then began counting, i was at 4 lights then i looked noticed it seemed to be a line of the lights evenly spaced from the west .could then count more was at about 8 ,i looked to see, where there were coming from sky there was a space of no lines of lights as it seemed as they would then become low enough to then become in my vision of sight, almost about a 45 degree angle coming down from above into my line of sight, all evenly about evenly spaced, again from where i stood watching,i extended my arm spaced my index finger and my little finger to show there spacing a! part as they moved across sky over the lake, now around counti! ng the 8 th light or so this next light seemed bigger not brighter light but almost triangle,or maybe almost like 3 lights made it look like a triangle too me, but NONE of these lights had any other colour lights,or flashing lights, there were just all white only, almost at if you could take a star and have them move at this speed and form a evenly spaced row flying across the sky above our lake,in total, i counted 23 separate lights in this 3- 4 minutes ,then i watched for for another 20 minutes or so, looking around the whole sky up at stars, did not see any more of this lights formation flying, i did see a Real plane fly over high above, i watched it as i wanted to get my bearing to compare its speed, to let me know it was like Real planes fly,i watched many times over the years,also to kind of let my mind compare its speed to the lights i seen. It being a plane flying high above probably flying around 500 mph going to it destination , i have flown many times ,know they fly aroun! d that speed, i would say these lights were about that same speed, i wanted to get a comparison to something to try to understand, make sense of what i witnessed.I counted 23 single almost star brightness single white lights move across the lower sky, coming down from above, that was my visual number count from when i actually began looking in that direction of the sky, i'am not sure if there was any before i began the sightings ,this is what i seen only.

Falcon, CO
I saw 29 pin points of light appear one by one at a point in the sky and follow the same trajectory. There may have been more lights, but that is the total from when I started counting. Most were evenly spaced apart and others were closer together, but all followed the same flight path. They moved slowly and continued until they disappeared on the horizon.

Highlands Ranch, CO
My husband was driving eastbound on C470 and I was in the passenger seat. We were nearing Quebec in Highlands Ranch when a bright, solid bluish-white light dropped out of the cloudless night sky above us, seemingly within a couple thousand feet off the ground. It zipped southward, arced downwardly west, then just blinked out. It was much too fast and bright for a plane or helicopter, turned too sharply, and defied all logic of nearby light and traffic patterns. We're both educated 50+ adults and have years of plane & shooting-star spotting experience and we've never seen anything like this.

Eden Prairie, MN
Was in Target parking lot around time given (7:30pm) walking away from the building, looked into the sky and saw what appeared to be a circular light travel quickly across a portion of the sky from right to left visible overhead at a quick, consistent pace, then suddenly disappear as if suddenly traveled or transported away, or suddenly turning off a light. It appeared to be the distance lower-traveling planes coming from MSP, but was at least three times, if not many more as fast. Appearance was as if staring at a street lamp from directly below and about 1.5x-5x the size of the diameter of a plane (long way). It made no sound. Companion was not looking at the sky and did not see it/ sense it. Not aware if anyone else might have seen it.

It had just cleared up from raining. My significant other was closing the blinds for the day upon entering the dark kitchen before turning the lights on. He was looking out of the dining room window which faces directly south, and noticed what appeared to be a very bright star. He called to me to come look because we are normally moon & star gazers, and enjoy the evening skies. It was slightly larger than what a star appears, but looked just like one to us. We don't normally see that particular star so it seemed odd. We watched for several minutes and began to realize it was very slowly moving down. It eventually fell below the treeline where we could no longer see it. We probably watched it for about 10 minutes or less.

Saw a whole string of white moving dots of lights, like satellites, numbering about nearly 30 or 40 moving slowly from SW (From Orion Constallation) towards the NW. The whole show string lasted several minutes, at least 5 minutes. In fact I went and check on the computer and then came back out to see them still emerging from the Orion constellation. They were all lined up almost perfectly and fairly evenly spaced.

Two bright strobing lights were stationary and just blinking wildly until they seemed to dim out and fade away very fast. It seemed to me like they were both moving in a circular pattern at times but it could’ve been my eyes, but thought I would mention it anyways!!

There was a perfect line going from SW-S to NE-E 195-210 to 60 on a compass looked like from Mexico to Colorado from what we could guess. There was a smaller line coming off the other way in a v shape this line had al lot fewer. The objects were the size of the stars but were moving across the sky like a satellite but they were lined up perfectly and close together.

Lake Havasu City, AZ
I was on my way home from my morning walk and had just made it to the entrance of the parking lot on McCulloch where you would drive right past the entrance to the Library. I looked up to look at the big dipper and saw to my amazement a continuous stream of lights moving from one end of the horizon to the other and passing thru the length of the big dipper. (moving from the "cup" end to the handle end) While the lights were not evenly spaced, they were all traveling at exactly the same speed with respect to each other. They were all of the same brightness which did not vary. None of them appeared any brighter than any of the stars actually a part of the big dipper. I have no idea how long this had been going on before I saw it. I do know I started watching it no more than a couple of min before six am Arizona time because my phone alarm went off at six am like it always does and I had just started watching the event. I was too amazed to count accur! ately but estimate I saw about 20 to 30 lights. They were in a perfectly straight line but were unevenly spaced. The distance between each light never varied as they moved, but the spacing seemed to vary from 3 degrees to 25 degrees. The "train" of lights extended from one side of the horizon to the other as much as I can tell. The lights seemed to fade out about 20 degrees past the handle end of the big dipper. I don't know if that was because of clouds or just the city lights of Havasu. My view of the other side of the horizon where they were coming from was obstructed by buildings and trees. When I got back to the condominium where I live I saw a friend who was in the hot tub and asked her if she had seen the same thing and she said she had and that she first noticed it as a group of 4 lights she saw going thru the big dipper and then she noticed the lights just kept coming. I have no accurate account of the duration of this event, but think it lasted no more t! han three min. I am no one in particular, just a 51 year old l! ibrary a ssistant and former teacher at a private high school. My friend is also a teacher.

At apprx 5:30 AM, 11/23/2019- I was looking up N,NW in the morning sky - zip code 23451- and i saw a long string of lights appear to come (possibly) down from out of view between orion the hunter and the little dipper and travel north, north west out of sight. The lights made no noise, traveled in a straight line - I looked up in the middle of the line so it had already started but I watched at least 40-60 lights pass by.

On the morning of Saturday, November 23rd at 5:30 am I went out on my 2nd floor balcony wearing only my pant bottoms to smoke a cigar. I’m telling you this to help show you the timeline of what I saw. As I stood there and looked up at the night sky, I watched a light come from north to south. It took about 1 minute for it to move north from about 2 o’clock south in the sky to about 12 o ’clock straight above. Being out there only a minute with just my pants I was getting cold and ran in quick to get a shirt. On my way in I noticed another light coming from the same direction and hurried and got a shirt on and went back out, taking less than a minute to get back out. Standing out in my shirt, I noticed 2 additional lights following the same path. Still cold, I stepped inside to grab my coat. This time coming out about 30 seconds later, I looked up and saw 3 lights in line with each other about 1 o’clock in the sky, coming much faster in the same direction from south to north. I continued to watch and more lights continued to move across the sky in increasing numbers, grouped together in lines, not clusters, moving from south to north. About 5:15 am, a small prop plane flew underneath the lights moving west to east. I kept counting the lights as they continued to appear, and lost count after 75. I estimate that I viewed a little over 200 lights total, however due to the horizon getting brighter, I believe there may have been more, just not visible any longer. One last thing I’d like to mention, is from the point of start of 5:30 am, to the point it ended at 6:00 am, looking southward, I noticed that the lights started at an 11 o’clock angle, still facing south everything ended at a 2 o’clock angle. I would like to receive an explanation of these lights if possible. If I were to give it a basic explanation, I would say it looked like continuous strings of lights moving across the sky. Thank you for your time and attention to this.

We were walking to an early counseling session. We looked up,because were always looking up. We saw 50 lights emerge from a cloud of sorts. All in a row. One by one, flying over our heads. A fleet of 50 u.f.o.s all we could think is...there is something big happening.

I just happen to step outside this morning and was looking at the big dipper, when I saw what looked like stars lined up and different distances from each other usually about 6 to 8 in a row moving in a straight line from west to east, there was no sound or contrail observed. They came in groups and would look back and here came another group on the same path and all in a row, what I saw took place in a period of about two minutes, there may have been more earlier but it ended, after it got daylight I observed no contrails, I a 82 years old and have never seen anything like this in my life please feel free to contact me on phone number of 406-249-5292 or p.o. box 820 in Bouse Arizona 85325, as for shape they looked like a normal star but were moving at the same speed as the distance between them did not change.

I saw approximately 8 lights, in a straight formation, heading northeast, about 30 degrees, it took them less then a minute to go across the night sky. No exhaust or trail behind them. There could have been more lights, but I just happened to look when I took my dogs out.

I was sleeping on my 3rd floor apartment, the bed is just across the window. Curtains were full open. I woke up in the middle of the night, to see that the room is flooded with bright pink light. I sat up in bed and could not believe what I was witnessing. I never used drugs, I never had a hallucination in my life before. I rubbed my eyes, but the strong pink light was still filling the room. I kind of panicked and reached out to my lap top computer, which was on the floor next to my bed, I pressed a key to open the screen. The moment my screen opened, the flash light filling the room turned off. I looked out of the window, there was this strong ball of pink light right in front of my window. I kept looking at it as it got smaller and the light faded away. It seemed like this ball of light was moving slowly and horizontally, away from my window.

I was standing on the back deck of my home watching the meteor shower around 11:25-11:30 pm Eastern Time, when I saw a star-like blood-red object sitting in the sky low on the western horizon behind the trees in my neighborhood. I knew this wasn't a plane as it had no flashing lights whatsoever and had the appearance of a star, albeit with a blood red color. I also saw several planes in the sky above the northwest horizon sitting in one place with flashing white lights, not far from the alleged UFO, forming a triangular formation in the sky. I tried taking a picture with my phone, but by then the object was obscured by the trees This comes almost 2 months after a UFO sighting I reported involving two star-like UFOs, one blood red and the other ocean blue, rotating in a circular formation while maintaining a perfectly linear distance from each other, before they vanished as I tried to take a picture. I suspect the blood-red star-like UFO in this report was on! e of the same two I sighted near Salsa's during my previous report, given its appearance and nature.

Called my family out to see 3 lights in a vertical line, lights would go from bright to dim, and glow yellow, purple, white, and red. Overtime one dissapeared and appeard horizontal to the others, then disappeared 10 minutes later, 5 minutes later the other two disappeared.
