Gulfport, MS
I was driving to work that morning enjoying the early morning sky, I saw what at first I believed to be a Vapor Trail. Being that I live on the gulf coast ,USA near many military bases, NASA research centers and airports I paid no mind. However, as I continued upon my route the object I noticed it was moving in atypical aviation patterns. I am closely familiar with aviation capabilities (known) and come from a line of pilots and military personnel. This was different from anything I had ever seen. It seemed to change altitude effortlessly with no Trail or heat byproduct behind it. I observed it flying at an FL of 7-10 feet.. It appeared bright white throughout and had a longer body than width an almost looked like cigar with more rounded edges. I did manage to take a short video and 2 photos. The stability of the video is shaky from driving but clear. The reason I did not think it to be a known aircraft was its ability to change direction laterally with! ease.

Myself and a friend were driving down I-69 South from Bloomington, Indiana. To the right side, around where the spit occurs to 37 south and 69 south, both of us saw this object and were stunned that people were continuing to drive. It was extremely windy, so it was not a balloon. It made no sound, but it just hung stationary in the air. It didn't flow... nothing. I know the area well, it was in the direction of Crane Naval base and in a good area away where it could get a good visual of the base. I took photos.

The sky had been clear in this rural area, and the man and his son were walking to the barn when his son saw the object first and asked him what it was. It was at about a 40-degree angle up. He pointed at it and they both stood and watched it for 2-3 minutes. When the man then looked down at his son to tell him he didn't know what it was, then back up, the object was gone. The object had been high in the sky, somewhere between 5-10,000 feet, range 1-2 miles, and was stationary. It appeared to be 20-40 feet long, possibly longer, cylinder/cigar-shaped, clearly outlined and silver/chrome reflective.

I was standing on my deck while watching a older model mono wing aircraft, do and practice barrel rolls about 1000 feet up when something else caught my vision and I looked slightly downward to see a translucent cylinder heading in an west to east pattern flight and as it entered rays of the sun it became visible and then would disappear and then become visible again as it hit another Ray, this happened three times before it finally just disappeared into the blue sky. It had no wings and there were no contrails. Also there was no sound and this cylinder I saw it was much closer than the aircraft doing the barrel rolls. I was facing south when I saw this at about 90 degrees.

Birkenfeld, OR
September 16, 2020--- On this night, at approximately 2:00 am, I was laying in bed with my 9 year old son in our “apartment" on my best friends 23 acre property. I kept seeing a light flashing outside the window. It looked as if someone was outside checking stuff out and every once in a while I would get a beam of light almost directly on my window. So I started to shine my cell phone flashlight out the window, basically telling whoever it is that I’m aware they are outside. After doing this off and on for about 5-10 minutes, it stopped but seemed awfully bright outside for a foggy september night. So I opened the curtain and this mechanical figure flew down from the corner edge if the roof and turned to expose itself to me. Before it got one to my window, the big chicken that I am, I closed the window. The next day I had asked my friend if there was a light outside that building that I was unaware of, I knew there wasn’t, but I had to be sure. They confirmed there was not. I thought nothing of it. I though it was the neighbors messaging around, so I didn’t think anything of it. About 3 or 4 days go by and by this time Im sleeping in the main house, again I’m a chicken, with my exboyfriend/current boyfriend. I didn’t want anyone to mess with me or my child, so I slept where I’ve always felt safe. Anyways, I’m laying in bed, its probably 1:30 and I see this light outside, almost a flashlight, but it was too high, too bright and moved smoothly. I’d assumed it was a drone. It was checking out my friends property. So I stare at it, suddenly my vision becomes distorted and everything is black. I wake up my boyfriend and he sees nothing, ofcourse. A week goes by and I see this thing everynight and from what I can tell, it does the same thing every night, but I think it has a “watcher" drone or thing. I say this for many reasons, one mainly because whenever I would try to show someone this thing, the light outside shuts of instantly. Either it is telepathic or someone is very close paying attention being a distraction maybe. We put up game cams and al! l 3 cameras stop recording video between the times this thing is here. It doesn’t show anyone shut it off at all. Maybe it has a camera distortion deal. There is so much more detail that I really do not have time to explain. This is the jist of it. Idk if its government or alien. But whatever it is, its very very intelligent. To be completely honest, it hasn’t hurt anyone or anything, it hasn’t stolen anything. Everyone is this house is nothing big enough for any government to want anything to do with or investigate. The property is beautiful, but that’s not a reason to sneak and hide in the middle of the night. I’m scared for my life and my family and for our home. I’m a little tech savvy, but I don’t have the equipment or funding to do any further investigating. This thing has stumped us and our only form of security.

Reading, PA
Unidentifiable aircraft hovering over Reading over hundreds of feet in the air, flashing red, green, and blue lights. It’s not flying in one direction it’s moving very strangely. Other people in reading are seeing this. I first saw it around 4am out of my window but it could’ve been there longer. It moves very fast.

I went outside my front door and walked to my car to go to work this morning at about 0030. I looked up to admire the stars and noticed a stationary light formation that seemed too solid to be a regular star, especially with the smoke and haze from the nearby wildfires, sitting roughly 80 degrees into the sky from my position facing South by Southeast. Taking a moment to study it, I noticed it appeared to be an almost cylindrical shaped object that sat vertical in the air. There were four different color lights attached; red on the top, darker orange in the middle, and white on the bottom. The orange lights seemed to change intensity like something small was partially blocking the light as it moved around. I pulled out my Samsung Galaxy A50, set the camera to the highest resolution settings and began taking photos. This is the moment the object began to move roughly northeast in relation to its position. A streak of light, akin to a distant passing meteor, s! hot right in front of it and made the object immediately change direction. I checked the time on my phone, realizing I was running late for work at 0046. I drove eastbound on Highway 30 going into Twin Falls to get to work by 0106. I got out of my car and found that the object was almost directly above me and managed to take a quick video of it before it suddenly went brighter and disappeared. I'm including a map photo which shows my exact positions for both sightings and exact route of travel.

Chisholm, MN
On my daily commute to work I, I generally see a scheduled flight coming in to the Range Regional Airport. On this particular morning, I noticed the inbound when they turned on the landing lights in preparation for landing. Navigation lights were also visible. Then I noticed a second inbound. About 4-5 miles behind the first and appeared to be on the same glide slope. The second inbound was surprising to me because it’s a small regional airport. Then I noticed the second inbound looked a bit “off”. The landing lights were much brighter than normal and were vertically oriented rather than horizontal. I momentarily took my eyes off the second to watch the road and follow the first aircraft disappear below the horizon as they were on short final for the airport. I concentrated on the second inbound to try and determine what it was. After a few seconds of watching it still following along the approach lane for the airport, it was about 5 miles out in front of me when the lights dimmed a bit. That’s when i noticed it appeared to be a cylinder or a rectangular shape with lights on the top and bottom. The lights came back up and it translated straight up. It went to 30,000 + feet in a second or two then bolted off due west and was out of sight in less than 3 seconds. Well beyond the capabilities of known aircraft. Total time I watched this was about 3 minutes. Please note, I work part time for MNDNR forestry as an aerial observer spotting wild land fires over this area.

This was a small red cylinder. It flew maybe the height of a drone, but then went up into the atmosphere, there was no sound, but later about a minute we heard a roaring sound. It seemed low, but it could have been higher, my camera caught it under a star. It went West to East. I did take a video.

It was a two tone silver and grey in color. It never seemed to move. I watched it for over 8 minutes. I turned my back to finish working at the site I was at and when I looked back up... it was gone! No where in the sky. Without a trace.

Around the intersection of Yelm highway and Henderson in Olympia WA there was a tubelike craft hovering or moving very slowly the object was SOLID black with a glowing blue globe shaped what I assume was the tail end this object then moved incredibly fast in a eastward direction until it was out of sight the object had no wings or propellers and when flying off moved faster then any aircraft I have ever seen

Looking out at the stars son and I noticed red craft come on like a beacon go off about six times then it did this with several times coming back in various spots facing the ocean from Baldwin county kiva dune area south west locations then seen multiple craft at various spots come on like lights all around them then they went off several times through out evening we did. Hear military craft but I have seen puff in combat this wasn’t it. It wasn’t flares and it went on and off then the final time they all went off together leaving us befuddled

Liverpool (UK/England) · United Kingdom
I was walking my dog for a walk as it was very warm and wanted to cool off before bed. I walked the dog down towards the river Mersey not far from Liverpool Airport (UK). As I said it was a warm night and when I got to the fields and the strangest thing started to happen, right above me there was lightning flashes lightning up the clouds. The strange thing was that the lightning was just lighting up the same area of sky. I found this weird as watched for roughly 10 mins and it continued to hit the same patch of sky . I then decided to take a few photos. On one of the photos you can see a UFO. By the way there was no sound, no thunder

I was sitting on my front steps. Something caught the corner of my eye. A small white tictac shaped object was silently streaking across the sky, right above the church, across the street from my house. I watched it for probably 5 seconds before I realized I could record it with my phone. It continued across the sky until out of sight.

Me and my buddy who I carpool with where driving home it was about 4:40 am and we seen a string of lights just over the hillside skyline .when I seen it I asked my buddy if he could see that and what it was, he responded that he seen it but wasn't wanting to point it out . At first we couldnt tell if it was light reflecting on a power line or logging operations because sometimes they start very early in the summer. We pulled over off the side of hwy12 and got out of the vehicle not long after we got out the lights started moving across the the sky toward the east.another driver pulled over just in front of us and got out and started watching the object. I have no real logical explanation for what we saw it looked to be very high in the sky and massive. You could really tell the shape just a long string of close lights that were perfectly straight and moved steadily across the sky in a straight direction toward the east.we watched it until it went back behind! the hillside it was visible for a couple minutes.i tried to take videos of it but it didnt turn out my buddy got a video of it that isnt the best quality but you can see the lights. I've never seen anything like this before I dont know what it was except it was not a natural occurrence.
