At or about 23:30 hrs on the 28th of May, 2016, my wife and I were on the back deck. I looked up and saw what I thought was a satellite. I see them all the time, but as I watched and saw a second light directly behind the first tracking in formation. I have never seen a satellite do that nor do I think they would orbit them in such close proximity. It was not the ISS I know because they are in a mission to inflate the new habitat.

I was sitting on my deck this evening to enjoy the sound of the crickets and frogs, when all of a sudden, my attention was drawn the the sky above me. I looked up and I saw two orange spherical balls following each other side by side, gliding across the night sky. They were to close together to be considered airplanes or satellites, and it didn't behave like a shooting star of a comet. Immediately, I grabbed my phone and recorded it on video as they flew across Pine River Pond. I managed to record them for a good minute before they just disappeared.

chrome metallic colored sphere moving slow 500 feet high before disappearing. It was near the ammunition plant. It was the size of a full size van.

Eastpointe, MI
On the night of 5/27/16, between the times of 11:05 and 11:11 pm, my co-worker called me out of the home we work at to point out a weird object flying in the sky that was traveling from the west, headed east, and finally came to rest positioned somewhere over or near Selfridge Air Force base. When the object first appeared it was very blue and very brightly illuminated, the lights weren't flickering or dimming like in typical aircraft. This was not like any star or planet I have ever seen in the sky before. The object was slightly bigger in appearance than the North Star, and emitted no sounds, and moved very smoothly, until it came to a complete stop northeast of where we were looking and positioned. When the object came to a stop about 3 to 4 smaller orb like blue lights came out of the bottom of the object and hovered there for about 1 minute, before the orbs disappeared back into the object and the object turned solid bright vibrant red. The object remained still in the sky for about another 2 minutes, and then started to lower itself to the ground. It continued to descend to the ground while remaining bright solid red, until it disappeared out of our visual field. The whole time the object remained the same size and the lights were always visible to my coworker and me. This event lasted a total of 6 minutes. The house we are located at is in Eastpointe, Michigan, at 9 Mile Rd., just west of Hayes. The object was viewed moving just north of us, probably about 8-10 miles away, towards the Harrison Township/Mount Clemens area. This is the approximate location that Selfridge Air Force Base is situated compared to where we are. The weather is clear and cloud cover is almost none. It is not raining and there are hardly any stars visible, so this object really stuck out. I am not sure the altitude of the object but I do know that while my co-worker and I were viewing this event, the object was positioned between two telephone poles, and was about 3 feet above the wire that crosses between the poles. My best guess would be that this object was flying at the elevation of about 20,000 feet to 25,000 feet in the air. It wasn't as high as a plane would normally be seen flying. My co-worker attempted to get video footage while this whole thing was happening. We don't know if the video came out, or is clear, because it was taken on his smart phone, and the screen is small and marred from overuse. I am working on transferring the video from his phone to my computer to see it we can upload it to get a better look to see if we were able to catch is even on film. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she sounded to us to be quite serious-minded. We suspect that she is an excellent witness. She works in the field of medicine. PD

Pink, changing to red. Flying, then stops in its tracks. Completely silent. Too high to be a helicopter, too fast to be a plane, and stood still. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Sunny View, NC
On the afternoon of May 26, 2016, we were watching the clouds, they started having beautiful prisms inside them so we took photographs, we were very surprised that evening as we looked through them at strange orb that we did see by eye but was caught on camera. We have been witnessing sightings at night here constantly for the last month, and sporadically the last couple of years, we also have witnessed strange aircraft unlike any other known of, we have searched the Internet for pics of every type of flying machine imaginable but it's not there?? It's definitely government craft we are seeing going into the sky at dusk any coming back down at dawn. During nightly light show, when a star suddenly moves across the sky, I can see these aircraft red and blue flashing lights,one on each side, coming across the sky in the direction of the moving object, these craft also make fly byes regularly in stealth mode using no lights. When interacting with the moving stars, a gray cloud will suddenly appear and distort the view moving in a fast circular motion but with a trained eye you can still make out lights moving around behind it. We don't have equipment for night photography but if we did I could easily prove we are not being told the truth about what's really going on, the lights are every night, I've reported it to police, local news, and the GSP airport but nobody seems interested??? I don't know why...?

We witnessed lights, in formation, very close together moving from west to east. They were very high in the sky. As they moved to the east they either moved they disappeared from our sight.

Claremont, CA
There was a group of about half a dozen small, bright white orbs high above. One seemed a little closer and brighter than the others. They seemed to be either stationary or moving very slowly. The orbs were visible for about 15 to 20 minutes before disappearing completely. I attempted to take a picture with a cell phone, but there was nothing clearly visible in the image. Using my 35 mm film camera, I took several pictures but I will have to wait until I get them developed.

Joshua Tree National Park, CA
We were driving west on Park Blvd., heading towards Keys View Road, near Ryan Mountain Trail head, when the driver of the car and I both saw a round/spherical silver floating object in the sky. It looked exactly like it was made from some sort of metal, reflecting the bright sunlight. It looked to be about 20-30 feet above us--relatively close, not off in the distance. I would describe it as a small craft--3 feet wide at most. It didn’t seem to move, just float. Most certainly NOT a drone. We both saw the object very clearly, before it disappeared in a second or two. We immediately pulled the car over and got out, but it was nowhere to be seen. It was there one second and gone the next. Either moving too quickly for the human eye to see, cloaking itself, or disappearing completely from that spot. I’ve seen several things out of the ordinary in the desert sky, but nothing as clear as this. There is no doubt in my mind that the object we saw is not from Earth. Both myself and the other observer have excellent eyesight, open minds, and are very good a picking up on details that others often overlook. I believe we were both looking in the right direction at the right time and ended up witnessing something that was hiding in plain sight. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS Hi Peter, The date is an estimate unfortunately as it was so long ago. It was either Saturday, May 21, 2016 or Sunday, May 22, 2016. Glad I found the NUFORC!

New York, NY
Hi, I'm Jason, we spoke on the phone earlier about my many sightings over NYC and I was encouraged to write about one specifically. I have been using meditative techniques I learned from Dr. Steven Greer's CE5 initiative and applied it to my own practice. I've been witnessing many orb like UFO sightings during these meditations and have been able to document lots of high strangeness. There are far too many experiences and incidents to paint the clearest picture of what is happening in just one report, which is why I felt confused about how to report such a long timeline of events. Despite all these antidotal words, I have documented what I could via my YouTube channel. It's very basic, no music, no graphics, and all short and to the point. It's hard to pick out the best video, but I am posting 2 links here, with the first video being the date and time linked to this report. As I said, my channel is quite simple and you're more than welcomed to see the rest of my videos at your leisure to help understand how frequent it is. Most sightings, including the one from this report are from my high rise apartment looking out toward midtown Manhattan. There's telepathy involved in this experience as well as other phenomena that I don't think is productive going into in a format like this. https://youtu.be/rRzSxESV608 https://youtu.be/cRDKX190ZdM

New York City (Brooklyn), NY
On 5th avenue and 16th street looking east by southeast there was two orange orbs moving at twice the speed of the usual aircraft in the sky heading north by northwest. The first one was almost at 23:00 on the hour, the second was a few minutes later at 23:05. There was also a high altitude jet moving north, a commercial jet moving west towards newark at a lower altitude and a jet coming in from the south moving towards JFK or Laguaria airport. The two orange spheres did not have lateral blinking lights, they did not make any sounds like helicopters and the color was almost pumpkin as opposed to the usual yellow/white aircraft color.

It was a cloudy night over Canfield Mountain in CDA off 15th and best I seen two large Orange orbs flying over Canfield Mountain. This is the second time I've seen this. They were there and just disappeared. We have changed the date above, to reflect a sighting in May 2016, not June. PD

Sandown, NH
Bright white flash appeared below Little Dipper ten seconds later flashed again then ten more seconds flashed once again. Tried to start brand new camera would not operate completely locked up trying to prepare invade of another occurrence. 30 seconds later in same vicinity but uncomfortably closer in earths atmosphere a large bright whitish orb appeared out of nowhere and started traveling east for 45 seconds before disappearing behind my backyard tree line. Full moon more blue than black sky but no clouds at all visible stars. No flashing light no colored flashing light like a plane not a helicopter way too big for any type of drone and completely no noise dead silence. Once object vanished multiple dogs or coyotes began to howl all around my area. Got spooked out and went inside.

Driving towards highway 17-92, there were three very bright lights in the sky. The lights were a deep golden orange color. These were brighter and larger than the street lights. These "glowing orbs" were hovering in the sky below the clouds. I called my husband, a commercial pilot, to explain what I saw and he asked for a photo. As I turned around and prepared to take a photo, they vanished. As I stated before, my husband is a pilot. I've flown with him several times and spent many dates staring at the sky as he identified planes. These orbs were spaced seemingly hundreds of miles a part. They flew too low to be planes and were far too large to be drones. It could not have been a satellite because these things hovered below the clouds. I should also mention it was raining lightly so the clouds were very dense.

The object changed shape several times. We watched it the for almost half an hour. It stayed in the same area of sky, but moved back and forth and up and down.

Garden City, SC
Sitting in my car waiting to go in and pick up an ordered to go meal. I'm on Business 17 next to Greg's Cabana facing East looking across 17 towards the ocean. I look up into the night sky as I always do and I see an orange glowing sphere rising up in the sky. Judging from the distance I'm sure that it was out over the ocean. The color is orange/red just like glowing fire, but no flame or flames. Round spherical shape and as it began to rise higher, the color was changing to a more red and almost purple like shade and then back to the orange glowing fire color. The size began to get smaller in diameter and while this was happening the color changed to white and it simply vanished into thin air. This is the first time that I have made a report on this or any site, but not the first time I've witnessed these unidentifiable flying objects. I can honestly state that you're more likely to observe UFOs in this area than not. It's that common here out over the ocean. Over the last 6 years this makes about a dozen sightings for me. Tonight, I was alone, but every other time there have been other witnesses and we all see the same things, colors, movements, etc. I personally, am of the opinion that somebody knows exactly what these things flying around are and where they come from and go to. Otherwise some form of authority would be busy trying to investigate and determine why they're in our airspace and on a regular basis. I talk about my sightings and so many people in this area have had similar experiences.

Charlotte, NC
On an American Airlines flight "Leg" with my wife and daughter from Orlando, FL, to Charlotte, NC, I looked out my window as the airplane was slowing and beginning its decent to the airport (at cloud altitude) on May 14th, 2016, at approximately 6:45pm. The weather outside was blue sky and partly cloudy. I saw a blue orb not far from the plane at our altitude (just above and aft of the right wing) in a mix of clouds and blue sky. The orb was distinctly circular, small, and stood out because the shade of blue did not match the sky around it. It definitely had an aura to it. It appeared to be standing still because our plane did not zoom past it. I had a clear view of it long enough to watch it slowly pass my window, turn to tell my wife, "Do you see that?", then turn back and see it go by the passengers window sitting behind me. It was clearly not a strange reflection in the window because I saw it from the second vantage point through the other passenger's window at a different angle. The lights in the cabin were also turned off. It was difficult to determine an approximate distance since I had no reference. Very strange.

On my patrol during the night and I saw something in the sky. I thought it was a airplane then I saw an orb shoot down to the ground what the other flashing light was just sitting there in the sky and that's when I whipped out my phone. The interesting parts are minute 1:03 and 2:30 I've already post this on YouTube and Reddit and was suggested on posting here an another website. I must say I was pretty excited on seeing this anomaly and very fortunate on capturing it on so many levels.

At times, the object would go into rapidly changing light sequences. It almost seemed like a pattern. Like it was trying to communicate. I watched the object through binoculars for 15 -20 minutes. It flashed very brightly a few times and then would display color light patterns.

Minneapolis-Uptown, MN
I was looking out my window and saw a flashing light/orb light, it kept moving from a SW direction toward a NW direction, it was a blinking hovering light, I am used to seeing airplanes fly to the Minneapolis-Saint.Paul airport but this light just hovered in one location and disappeared and re appeared in a different direction. I did hear 3 planes/jets fly by and I did see 1 plane fly towards the light which than disappeared as the jet/ plane flew towards it. I dismissed the light until I looked out my window again surprised that it was a clear night and the stars, Venus and Jupiter were all visible, I than saw what looked like a satellite, it had a path yet looked odd to me, so than I ran outside to try and follow and locate the direction of it but was too late to find it. I than went outside and looked up to the stars looking for anything moving, I was able to locate 2 lights/orbs that looked like blinking satellites yet would disappear behind clouds as! they passed by, making me think they were in the atmosphere not outside the atmosphere? I usually see no activity in the skies other than usual airplanes but this was different, at one point when I saw the hovering orb/light i honestly was scared/excited and felt like it was out of this world. I am used to seeing airplanes and satellites, yet these sightings were distinct and unusual to me, so I think it would be worthy of reporting . -Just making sure I saw 4 unknown craft and about 3-5 plane/jets flying around the vicinity

Grants Pass, OR
My friend and I were walking back to my house and we were just about to get onto the bridge when I had noticed what I had thought was some sort of super huge flashlight shining bright across the river but when I fixated on the object, it turned out to be just a ball of light like literally an orb. It was hovering above the river at riverside park and there was also an elderly lady who was near us and she even said did you see that? As she reached for her phone. And I said yeah what was that. I went to grab my phone too but remembered it had died, and my friends had recently broken that week, I didn’t know the other woman but I sure hope she at least got a picture. Either way, it was surreal. We were all stunned because of the way that it flew away and disappeared. No plane can fly all zig saggy like that and that quickly. I also am not sure how it was able to seem like it was not that large when it was so close to the river. In my eyes it looked like it was so close to the surface of the river at first. I just have no idea what that was and will always wonder for the rest of my life. It was a very strange experience and if two other people hadn’t of been there to see it with me I honestly would have probably thought I was losing my mind. I just found this site and I looked back around the time I saw this and other sightings of the same thing seemed to have happened in Oregon California and Washington. I am sure others have seen it too. I can’t wait til the government comes clean about things, so we can find out what these UFOs really are. They probably know how to make us live forever too I bet, kinda messed up how many lives could be saved if better people ran the country/world.

Belmont, MA
Object seen in sky on clear night, circular and reddish colored. Looked like airplane red lights, but had no accompanying blink or white/blue light as you typically see with aircraft and it made no noise. As I watched it moved left to right across the sky, then did a quick swing back to the left, and then out of view to the north.
