Jacksonville, FL
I was traveling back from Ohio to Florida and it was dark outside. I was in the back seat watching the stars as we were driving and listening to music when all of sudden i see a bright light about 10 above a 30-40 foot tree. It was a ball, The color was orange. I could tell it was moving at about 30-40 mph as we were traveling at 70 Mph on a freeway and it was moving by slow. After we passed it I shouted at my sister to look and she looked back and as she looked back we saw the ball zig-zag SUPER fast. It was so fast it left a light trail, then fade away. She saw it too as she said "Wow!" I tried recording it but i just couldn't pull my phone up to do it, something wouldn't let me.

I saw a green round light out by our pole building. I got my Fiance and we got on our golf cart and went around building it wasn't there we drove to the top of our driveway and we saw the green round hubbering light flying across the driveway down the hill through the neighbors property. It rested next to a building a=for a few moments and then back and forth it then proceeded towards the field and disappeared. We went down to the area it was in with our golf cart and there was nothing we came back up the hill to our driveway and there it was in the field next to our pole building not moving. We started racing towards it and it started moving again we chased it along the farmers field, it stopped like it was looking at us we shined a light on it and it took off again, it never made any noise going through the field. We chase it and it crossed the street and into the woods and disappeared. It was a little bigger then a baseball but smaller then a basketba! ll. It was a bright green hubbering circle. we never seen anything like it before. I am glad I had someone to witness it with me Just mad that my cell phone was dead and didn't get any pictures.

While outside on my porch smoking a cigarette and speaking with a friend on the phone when I noticed what appeared to be a meteor moving South to North around 3000 feet in the air. As it moved closer I noticed no sound and about six orange lights below the object. I was taken aback when it moved sideways briefly then returned to its northern movement always keeping the same height from what I could observe. As it slowly passed overhead I was able to stare directly up at it and I've never seen anything of the sort in my life.

While waiting for fireworks to start, my wife and I were sitting on bleachers. I noticed in the sky a red round object hovering above us. It moved slowly to different positions in the sky and then just stayed still. Another one appeared slowly moving toward the other. They were in the sky for a long time then one moved away till it was gone from sight. After the fireworks the other was not to be seen.

There were some clouds in the sky, and I watched as this object traveled under some of the clouds, then traveled through others. I have no idea what height the clouds were, or the altitude the object, but am positive it passed below some, and through others. Its path was absolutely straight, and unvarying in any way. It made absolutely no noise, created no vapor trail, was completely stealthy, with the exception of it being visible. It was NOT a bird, or small airplane, I am ABSOLUTELY positive of this. I regret that I have no video of this incident, all I can say is I was transfixed. I can assure you that I was not under the influence of anything, and that no one on the beach, including my family, took notice of the object. I've mentioned the episode to my wife, and no one else. Do you have any other reports of this? I'm not crazy, I know what I saw. Do you have any reasonable explanation for what I observed?

Warwick, RI
There was an unusual red light SSE of my location that at first appeared to be an unfamiliar mounted light. Upon inspection with binoculars it was unattached to anything and had a smaller green light that moved from right to left. By naked eye, it was about 1/8" around. It stayed in the sky for at least five minutes, then appeared to descend, not quickly or slowly, over a few minutes until it disappeared. There was no reduction in size as it descended. There was no sound.

placitas, NM
it's a cloudy night. i stepped out on my patio before going to bed. out of the corner of my eye i noticed a series of lights up in the clouds going by. my first thought was headlights on a distant road reflecting off the cloud cover. but it continued at regular intervals. as i really started watching, i realized the lights were going in a large circle, over and over again. this thing seems to be stationary and concealed in the clouds-except for the lights. it is still sitting there-i'm home alone and pretty freaked out. Advertising lights?? PD

One single ball of light far away in the sky appeared out of no where, flew straight up, then changed direction quickly and darted out of the sky, disappearing. I could compare the speed to an airplane that was also flying nearby and the object was well over double the speed of the plane. Upon appearing, it grew increasingly brighter until finally changing direction. It left no trail or sound.

What was so strange was we couldn't tell if it was extremely close or far away. I thought it was close, but then it disappeared. A half hour later we saw it float by again and we ran inside.

Pacifica, CA
We got our telescope and focused in on the object. It was clearly a UFO. It looked like a circle/sphere shape. It had bright white and yellow glowing lights around the perimeter of the circle. There were two straight long lines in the middle that moved like clock hands, back and forth. It hovered for about an hour from when we spotted it. Then, in a split second flew away out of sight.

My boyfriend and I were having a bonfire when he noticed a strange object in the sky moving east; it looked as though it was on fire but was too low and moving too slowly to be a shooting star. We watched as it continued east and took a picture; almost immediately after his flash on his camera went off, all the "lights" on the object turned off but we could still see the object and it turned and went west. The object seemed to float slowly across the sky until we could no longer see it.

There was a circle white light moving slowly in sky. Then 3 jets after another circled after it and then right by one of the jets when we were watching it movie it shot really fast like a shooting star and disappeared. So then the jets left. Then again from a different area the white circle appeared again moving and three more jets again. This is our first sighting and it's scary and amazing at the same time.

This is the 2nd time I have seen the seven red blinking lights moving slowly across the night sky near my home, headed N/NE. A couple days ago, I viewed them from my house deck and they looked like they were closer to the Bitterroot Mtns. I did not call anyone that day, but Googled several search words attempting to determine if this was some kind of pre-planned ferry flight, or group of aircraft responding to a forest fire. This time, they flew close together, lower than they appeared to be the other night, but both times, were at a low altitude, and moved very very slowly. Tonight, I was driving home when I spotted them at 00:24, and called my daughter right away. She is a degreed aviation management professional who is a Montana licensed fixed wing and helicopter pilot who makes her living flying professionally. She walked out to her driveway and viewed them at the same time. She was looking north/northeast. I was traveling almost due east in my car, looking north/northeast, then what seemed to be more north. They did not look like aircraft typically seen. We live withing 10 miles of the Hamilton, MT, airport. She too, believes they were something other than regular aircraft of any kind. The objects made absolutely no sound. There appeared to be a different (typical) aircraft above the 7, higher in the sky, traveling W/NW. The 7 red pulsing lights moved much more slowly than even a helicopter would. I am a female with advanced degrees who, with my husband,(a Ret. Army Colonel & Energy expert) own a consulting business focusing on energy, resilience, education & creativity.

At approximately 11:18 on June 26, 2016, I looked out the bedroom window, as I often do. It faces east. There were stars, as usual. I noticed a pair of stars. They were shining and then one just “went out”. I thought maybe a passing cloud blocked it, etc.. But the sky was clear. About 25 seconds later the “light” switched on again, a little farther south. Then it went off again. twenty seconds later, it appeared a third time a little farther south, then off again. Finally a flash, much larger than the tiny, “star light”. It was lower on the horizon. It was almost like a small explosion of white light or a camera flash, very bright, brief and then it disappeared.

Tonight, there were about six long super bright objects flashing different colors and surrounded by blue aura. From the one that seemed to be the highest, a very dimly lit round object seemed to have come out the side of it and flew slowly (higher than planes) in a north easterly direction then disappeared. It never made a sound and definitely wasn't a plane or helicopter. Shortly afterwards, a helicopter then a commercial plane flew over. I had my son come outside and see all the super bright long lights. This cheap phone wouldn't capture any clear images!

I was walking home from bus stop in Brigantine, about 12:15 am, and saw a moving light catch my eye that I almost immediately dismissed as a plane. It was a big red/orange glowing ball and it went shooting to 2 stars, grew big in size and then floated and disappeared.

I was outside star gazing with my new telescope I recently purchased. I look up at the sky towards the airport and I see nothing, I turn around and then look again to see a small but bright pulsating light (white light) appear from no where. This light was away from any airplane routes that planes take to either land, or take off from the airport. It was hovering for a few seconds then started to move north (left on my camera. I did get a recording of this object) it made no noise, and was not very high up. Moved very fast, was able to come to a complete stop in the sky within seconds. I followed this object for about 30 seconds until it started to flicker. The object/light. Disappeared after flickering. It reappeared again only to disappear within a few seconds. Note: there were NO clouds in the the path of the object. There were clouds but very far in the distances...No way clouds could have made this object "disappear" This light was very strange, I have seen other lights like this over the years, but in many different colors.
