Pine Grove, CA
I went to bed at or around 11:00 PM. I have a sliding glass door covered with a white curtain right next to my bed. I turned off the lights and got into bed and glanced at the sliding glass door. I noticed that there were lights shining on the lower portion of the curtain. I thought that someone was outside with a flashlight pointing it towards my sliding glass door. I was alone and so I was too scared to look out through the glass to see who was out there. Even though I was scared I went right to sleep. I woke up at or around 5:30 AM. The thing that woke me up, was that my left hand was freezing cold. I wondered how my hand could be so cold when it was under the blankets. I got up and went to the bathroom and when I got up I saw that the light had grown and that my entire window was now lit up with the light shining towards it. This scared me more and I didn’t dare look out through the sliding glass door. By the way, the sliding glass door leads to the back yard and there is no houses behind it and no streets facing that side of the house. I went into the adjacent room and looked out the window. This window faced the side of the house and just around the corner from it is the back of my house. The area was lit up as if there was lights on outside. It was not coming from the next door neighbor’s house because no one lives there and there is no sensor lights on that house. I then looked out the other window which faces the street. I saw that it was dark across the street. The lights on the house across the street were turned on as if they were up getting ready for work. The houses next to that house were dark. The house that had the lights on did not have a lit up yard as I did, the yard was lit but dim. I then saw a light shining towards my house from the street and it looked like a car was coming. I turned to see who it was and I saw a round light that was probably 6-8 feet diameter travelling toward the cul-de-sac. The light was about 5 feet or so off of the ground and was so bright that it was blinding. I waited for it to pass because I wanted to see what kind of truck it was. When it passed my house, it disappeared. At the same time the lights in the yard went out and it became dark. I was left dumb founded and I couldn’t figure out if it disappeared because I was so blinded by the light or if it a new kind of truck with only one light. I couldn’t go back to sleep and nor could I make sense of what happened. Later that day I asked the neighbors if they saw anything. No one saw a thing and they all suggested that it might have been a UFO. After thinking about it, I concluded that they might be correct. I thought about it and remembered that UFOs have a lot of energy and concluded that if it was a UFO my Toyota Prius that is electric would have improved gas mileage. Because my Prius measures mileage continuously, there was a record of mileage on the car. I looked and saw that my highest mileage ever was 49 miles per gallon. I took a day trip of 189 miles after this incident and my mileage was recorded at 75 miles per gallon.

At first I saw 2, then they both disappeared at the same time for a few seconds before reappearing with a third. After reappearing for about 10 seconds and disappearing for a few seconds a couple more times they did not return.

Forrest City, AR
Was sitting in hospital parking lot in an ambulance. "I am an employee on the ambulance" was watching aircraft fly over and checking what flight and type of aircraft they were on my flight radar app. Noticed an aircraft flying at 32000 ft west bound. Just as it passed my unit I seen a silver flash catch my eye maybe 5000 feet above the aircraft. It moved east and west with ease never stopping to change direction. Then it moved up north and south a few times hovered intermittently at times. Then it just ascended out of sight. The object was silver in appearance orb shaped like a b.b.

Auburn, AL
The sighting was of small spheres about the size of soft balls or slightly larger. They had a very bright shinny metallic in appearance. They were moving as a small group (3 to 4 ft. in dia.) They came from a wooded area behind a roll of houses about 35 feet from me. They were only about 10 feet above the house traveling at a low rate of speed as they came over the house as they flew directly toward me. I was standing in the street. At this time an other sphere trailing just behind the group came from on a lower flight path just clearing the house roof to join the others. As they approached the street where I was standing they made an abrupt turn parallel to the street as if they had seen me. They crossed the lot of the house next to the first one and flew into and through the tops a group of leafless hardwood trees on the far side lot line. All the time, maintaining the same general group size, and without hitting any tree branches that I could see. This fl! ight path, to the West, took them to the wooded area from which they had come. I quickly moved down the street for a better view of their flight path, but they had disappeared from my sight. Also, just before this sighting I had noted a bright object high above me with a short bright tail traveling at a high rate of speed. It made a very sharp U turn back toward it's original flight path and disappeared quickly. Could these have been alien orbs?

Barcelona (Spain) · Spain
It was a Monday, mid March 2016 (the 14th or the 21st) somewhere around 11:00 in the morning. As I stepped out onto the terrace looking south, I spotted what seemed like a chrome-plated metalic sphere coming from behind the building to my right and flying west to east at about 20 kms/h, 40 mts off the ground and 60-70 cm in width. It did not make a sound. 2-3 seconds later, the object started to wobble and become more and more transparent at the same time until it completely vanished 2 or 3 seconds later. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Circle of lights (white) seen in the cloudy sky when I took my puppy outside to go to the bathroom. Noticed over the neighbor's house, told my husband and he came outside to look as well. Circle contained 12 orb lights in a circular pattern. Advertising lights from nearby casino. PD

Ashland, NE
At approximately 21:40, a bright white orb shaped object fell in the north east sky towards Omaha, NE. This object had no tail as if it wasn't burning up in the atmosphere. It was larger than any shooting star I have witnessed before. It appeared and fell from about 60 degrees up from the horizon, straight down to about 40 degrees and just disappeared. No sound was heard.

Ogden, UT
Small sphere of multicolored lights flashing, spinning, and hovering in the sky under the Leo constellation, right above star Alphard. When going back outside an hour later, had vanished. Used Sky map app to see if it was a star, there were no stars registered in the area it was seen before it had vanished. Possible "twinkling" star?? PD

Jefferson City, MO
Bright turquoise colored object west of Jefferson City. Ran inside to get camera. Object appeared to be getting closer and was under the low cloud ceiling. Object then headed to the south. Object changed from the turquoise color to a crimson red as it passed- it flickered between the colors once. Took video, until I could no longer see it. I’m at a lower elevation- this should have continued to be visible over Missouri. (I can provide Vimeo link to video if you need it )

Boulder, CO
I could not Identify this object - The glowing orb was completely stationary at times, despite the wind - The Unidentified Flying Object moved above the clouds. I resumed recording only a few seconds after it reappeared. It then began to descend slowly - stopping then continuing to descend out of view. The object was between myself and the flatirons.

Pelham, AL
On my way to work, white sphere moving faster than anything i've ever seen before. Over Oak Mountain State Park. too close to be a comet/shooting star. too fast to be military. too bright for me to be the only one who noticed. no sound. no trail/tail. it was gone just as fast as i noticed it.

Escondido, CA
just picking up a pizza in Escondido walking to my truck. Looked up at 2 moving objects in formation. orange orbs. I waited for blinkie lights.. None noticed. Continued to watch them move overhead. No sound. Then they blinked out together, vanished. I shrugged it off continued walking to my truck when 2 more appeared in formation moving in the same direction. I stopped again, this time whipped out my cell phone and took several pictures... Same thing watched as they went up and blinked out. I got in my truck and started to drive out of the parking lot and as I turned on to the road I saw 3 more orbs in formation following the same pattern. I had to concentrate on driving , and could not watch. I have pics if you want.

Merritt Island, FL
On 3/4/2016, we were stopped at a traffic light at Merritt Ave. and S.R.520. From the east, we spotted 8 or 9 bright orange glowing orbs slowly heading southwest. They appeared to be closer to the ground in the east and gradually ascended as disappeared as they traveled southwest. There orbs did not follow in a line or make up a larger shape. They were independent from another, but followed more or less a similar path. This is the third time we have seen these within a year. The first time was in Cocoa Beach, and the second from the oceanside, going over PAFB. There were only 3 or 4 the previous times. Same bright orange glowing orbs. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Hanover, NH
Saw 3 round yellow orbs in the NE sky last night at 6:23 pm (approx). Two lights together (like on an airplane wing) and one in front. The two,lights together came closer together then went back to the "airplane wing formation". The third light stayed in front. The lights stayed at the same altitude and were in the same area of the sky. As I drove north saw this phenomenon again. Saw this event three times. HOAX. E-mail address and telephone # are defective. Date is flawed. We do not understand why people submit bogus reports. PD

Boynton Beach, FL
Walked out back to smoke a cigarette around 1:00am and i could see a sphere shape object with red and white lights flicking on and off and i thought it was a plane at first but it wouldnt move and i could see it above the trees. I couldnt see and walked back outside around 4:00 am and it was still there. I went to sleep and i ended up having a dream about it.

New York City (Queens), NY
I thought I was seeing stars, at firs,t then suddenly realized the objects were moving. I looked in another area and another one. The clouds were moving fast and starting to cover quickly though the little openings a light would appear and than be gone moving in its own direction. At first, I thought I was just the clouds moving against the sky but I started testing each object by using the telephone pole and the wire and I stood still and the objects were moving fast pass my set focus points. I then ran inside and got my GF and the sky was almost completely covered with clouds. strange cloud fog.. Tiny little holes would open in the sky and you would see one and another and another moving in the same direction. If that same place was again clear the objects were not in the sky. Must have seen 30 of these objects before the sky was completely covered with cloud fog. I retuned outside 45 mins later around 830pm and the sky was completely clear and the stars were ! in there natural place and no clouds to be seen.

Sarasota, FL
Two bright orange orbs were moving west to east, one behind the other. They seemed to have a "gassy" look and sparks were falling down from them occasionally. The one in the back would gain speed and get closer briefly then fall back. This went on til they went NE out of sight. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Phoenix, AZ
Around 0100 on 02/29/16, I observed a bright object in the night sky over north Phoenix that remained in a stationary orbit for about two hours. At first, I viewed the object with binoculars and noticed that there appeared to be three glowing lights side by side with the light in the middle glowing brighter. I noticed that the object would move very slowing but remained in the same area for a long time. I then viewed the object with a telescope and was astonished to see a perfectly round object very large in size and appeared to pulsating an orange glow around it. I viewed the object with a telescope for a while before it very slowly moved off to the east part of the valley.

A light blue or white orb was seen advancing at high speeds in a linear path right above our house during the night time. It did not produce sound, and was of unknown size. The altitude of occurrence was right on top of the treeline. Helicopters were seen during and shortly after the event circling the area.

Colorado Springs, CO
Four orbs, close enough to see in fairly good detail. Kind of jerky movement up and down almost like they were attached to fishing line getting bites. Were moving north before they went super sonic without any sound. Were all same color, pale cream with a greenish yellow hue. Was dark out and craft were illuminated almost like a dim glow stick. Seen above platte/boulder rd area. Just moved down from denver, previously thought you all were nutjobs. My bad

Eastham, MA
Ft Hill. Lights varying in intensity focusing on me appeared from seal shelf at coast guard. They remained spatially unchanged as they made their way to the bay (?). Footage continues ro reveal more lights. Besides the intensity of light they were identical. Closest one was approx. 12 ft over my truck "looking down" through open sunroof. They seemed intelligent and I was their focus I don't know why. They split a number of times. The bright decoy worke because in the footage as I focused on it - more came close to car. Seemed to be investigating me, I passed because they simply Vanished then appeared, heading north in illuminated pairs. Ya got me, I don't know what any of it was but have the footage. Definitely: intelligent, tactical, emotive, playful, leery. Witness provides little contact information. We have changed the time, to reflect an evening sighting. PD

Plam Bay, FL
Heard some loud bangs outside that the city of Palm Bay reported as fireworks. While investigating the noise, my wife and I saw 2 glowing fireballs/orange in color. My best guess is they would have been flares, but they were moving with the horizon, not falling out of the sky. After watching about 2 minutes, one of them burned out and the other remained bright until it flew out of sight. There was never any of the green/red navigational lights or anti-collision lights that one would expect to see on an airplane. Also, no sound. However, the lights never made any strange/extraordinary movements you hear about in other UFO reports. They also did not explode into a brilliant fireworks display, so if they were fireworks they were - again - unlike any I have ever seen.

Creede, CO
Early morning sighting. Got up to look at moon and Jupiter, as i often do. Saw two stationary spheres between moon and mountain top in south southwest direction and almost as bright as jupiter. Spheres were about an inch apart. After a few minutes, they started fading, and completely disappeared within 10 seconds. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.
