Willard, OH
At about 10:15 pm tonight, August 3, 2019, over Willard, Ohio, a pair of orange lights were seen moving very slowly in parallel with each other as they crossed in the night sky in somewhat of an arc from southeast moving northwest for a short distance before disappearing. Two more similar lights followed within a few seconds, following roughly the same path and again disappeared. There was no noise. The lights were steady, not blinking.

There are no clouds in sight tonight. I walked outside and saw a white light in the southeast moving east. It wasn't flashing at all and quickly vanished out of sight. The light seemed to get smaller and vanished on a clear night.

Aguirre Springs, NM
My two friends and I went out to a camping trip behind the Oregon Mountains in Las Cruces, New Mexico, during the summer of 2019. My friends and I were star gazing when I and another noticed a faint red light appear out of nowhere in the night sky. The degree to which the light was dim suggested that the object was at a vast distance from the surface of the earth. I noticed a beam of red light protruding from the object; the overall shape of the anomaly was reminiscent to the shuttlecock used in the sport badminton. This object was not static, instead it moved in multiple directions within the small region of space that it occupied. This anomaly reminded me of a deep-ocean ROV examining a shipwreck as it seemed like the object was examining something that neither I or anyone else could see. Eventually we lost the anomaly within the sea of stars. Unfortunately the light was so dim that our phone cameras couldn't possibly have captured it.

It was 11pm and I went outside to have a cigarette. Like most evenings, I like to look up at the stars, and that’s when I noticed one moving. I yelled to my wife to grab my phone and get out here, I said you have to see this. It was probably the worst video I have ever taken. But at least I got something on my phone. My wife was just as baffled as I was, watching this bright light move around and then disappear. She had went back inside, and I stayed out for a few more minutes and I saw another appear. This one was a little different instead of being bright white it was a faint reddish color. It also moved towards the same direction as to where the bright light craft disappeared. Funny thing is I was taking a video and could not record the reddish UFO. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Watching the stars one evening and observing to the E - N.E. - altitude? Very very high and I did observe a 'blue-ish' light in the nighttime sky. Very peculiar this blue dot behaves. Ascends and ascends to disappearing/vanishing from viewable sight up into the further layers above. I was fairly gobsmacked by this display. There has been discussion of travel back and forth from the moon prior. - fin

I was sitting in a camp chair when I looked into the evening sky and saw a bright white light moving quickly east. It went behind trees, I got up, my girlfriend and I watched the light move quickly down the sky as it later flashed in and out. We were in big cottonwood canyon. As we left the canyon we saw the light above the mountain ridge just sitting stationary. We watched it for a couple minutes. Maybe 2 or 3 minutes but, despised to leave. . It was a little frightening ..

Was watching for meteors around 2am. Looking straight up, I saw a bright blueish/white light towards the southwest sky that seemed rather far away, possibly even outside the atmosphere. It appeared out of nowhere and traveled in a straight line for about half a second before making an S-pattern and disappearing. It was traveling at high speed similar to that of a meteor. Had it not been for the S-pattern I would have thought it were another meteor.

Several bright lights above the horizon, right above the cloud layer, bright orange and shimmering. First, there was one, which we thought might be a light. Looking from the Poway area, it was Southwest and at the same star location as the Menkent star cluster. It faded away without moving after 5 minutes, but then reappeared in the same spot with a second light around a minute later. These stuck around for another 5 minutes, or so, faded, and then reappeared with 3 lights, in the same spot. The three lights stayed for about 10 minutes. During this time, they shimmered in different patterns, then faded away. After less than a minute, one appeared above and to the right of the original location, stayed a minute, then faded, and soon after two appeared, below the previous but above the original location. They faded as well, and that was it. There was a heavy Marine layer at the time, so no other stars were shining through, but these were abnormally bright, much brighter than the city lights in the distance though appearing to be just as far.

The smoke from neighboring fires finally ceased direction and I was looking to the skies to point out satellites to a friend. While my friend went inside I noticed a very bright slow moving light, I began to test if my phone camera would pick it up; it did. After filming 12 seconds, I stopped the recording and refocused on the object with my eyes. Within 5 seconds the light almost appeared to stop living then shrank in both size and light intensity before vanishing completely. I observe aircraft and satellites daily and this is unlike anything I've seen first hand.

On checking my window surveillance camera, I saw a flash that looks like lightening and then a fast moving ball of light moves across the top of the cameras view. In the distance a slow moving ball of light moves across the sky with what looks like a trail behind it, but it stops suddenly many times then keep moving until out of view.

- Summer of 2016 I was on my back deck and I looked up at the stars and said, “ If there are any aliens up there blink a light 3 times really slow and bright.” That’s EXACTLY what I saw; 3 blinks to the north nice and slow and bright. It looked like it came from where satellites would be (about that high up) and the brightness was as bright as the brightest star. The next day I ask the same thing and AGAIN I saw 3 blinks in the sky but this time to the East. - 06/06/2019 – Around 3:10am I was outside on my back deck looking at the stars; I talked really quiet saying, “If there are any aliens up there please show me your space ship; Do something.” To the East moving from South to North I saw a moving object light up for two seconds; I said, “Thank you; Please do it again.” About 1 minute later I saw the same thing this time North-East moving in the same direction. It was like what people who see UFO’s call a Power-Up, but very short as if they only wanted me to see them. The object appeared to be about 1 mile away from me; The light went from complete darkness to brightness, fading-in from small to large and fading-out from large to small; Hold your thumb and index-finger ¼-inch apart and then hold your fingers against the sky and imagine a bright-light about 1 mile away at that size [That’s about how large the light was at its brightest]; And the shape of the light was more oval shaped being wider on the left and right sides. - 06/08/2019 – Around 2:50am I was on my deck looking at the stars asking the aliens to please show me something; I turned south-east and noticed 2 bright stars, one on top of the other; I thought to myself, where the heck did those 2 stars come from? I never saw those stars there before; Every night the same stars are in the sky; I stared at those 2 stars for about 15 seconds and then they both slowly faded away together in about 15 seconds; A cloud would cover one first and then the other; These both faded away together. 06/09/2019 I looked at the sky all night from 12am to 3am and I never saw those 2 bright stars to the South; That confirms to me my experience yesterday was aliens that created those 2 bright stars to the South. - 06/27/2019 – Around 2:25am I was laying on my reclining chair looking at the stars and said “Show me something aliens” and eventually I saw a light moving from South to North looking over my house towards the North; I think it was a dim Power Up that lasted only 4 seconds; It appears to be the same object I saw 06/06/2019 at 3:10am that did a Power Up. - 07/03/2019 around 1:00am I was outside on my deck laying back in my chair looking at the stars; Within 5 minutes I saw something moving from North to South and light up for about 3 seconds; It was up where satellites are; The light wasn’t super bright, just bright enough for me to see clearly; The last time I was out there I asked my alien friends to please show me something moving from North to South because the last 3 times I saw things moving from South to North; This confirms to me something is listening to me up there. About 5 days ago I saw the same object moving from South to North and it lit up [a light] 3 separate times just 2 seconds each time and in a row and that was it; That’s when I realized the last 3 times I saw something up there they are always going South to North and asked them to please do something from North to South next time [and that is what I saw tonight]. - 07/03/2019 around 3:00am - I had another experience; I went out around 3am and looked at the stars for 10 minutes; I went in and got my laser; I shot my laser up in the sky for 3 seconds a little East and then said… ok aliens, I put on a show for you; Now you put on a show for me; Within 1 minute I saw a blinking light START where I shined my laser for 3 seconds and the blinking light went North; I stood up out of my chair and looked over my roof and it blinked a few more times and then stopped, nothing more. - 07/04/2019 around 4:00am I asked the aliens to show me something and soon after straight above my head as I was laying back in my chair looking at the stars I saw a quick bright flash of light and that was it; Nothing more; I said Thank You, I saw that; The flash of light was 1/8-inch round and appeared to be about a mile or so in the sky. - 07/05/2019 around 3:30am I had just sat down to look at the stars and within 2 minutes looking South I saw an object do two slow flashes of light and that was it; I felt like it was my alien friends saying hi to me; It was not fireworks; Super quiet, warm, and clear sky. - 7/18/2019 around 12:45am I was looking at the stars laying back in my chair and I said “Aliens show me something please”; I saw 3 bright blinks way up in the sky slowly moving from North to South. They answered me within a minute. - 7/22/2019 around 12:50am looking at the stars asking my alien friends to show me something; About 3 minutes after that I saw a light moving across the sky from North-East to South-West and then faded away during flight; It was about twice the size of a star, solid white light. Clearly not a satellite because it faded out completely above me to the right [South a little]. - 7/23/2019 around 12:30am I shine my green laser into the sky for 3 seconds and say “Ok alien friends show me something”; About 3 minutes later I see a white light moving across the sky from North-West to South-East and then fades away not too long after it passes over me. Around 4:00am I shined my green laser in the sky for a few seconds, waited, about 3 minutes after saw a light appear above and to the North-East as it was moving and then fade away within about 4 seconds; 2 minutes later it did it again. - 7/24/2019 around 1:00am I was laying down on my chair looking at the stars; I said, “Aliens, bring your ship down here”; Within about 3 minutes I saw a detailed light flying from South to North only about 500 feet above me; It was like a ripple of light, three u-shaped lights similar to this: ((( flying above me. Then immediately after I see a light moving across the sky way up high like a satellite from North to South and it seemed to make a little curve as it was flying; As it passed over me it went a little further and then faded away completely [That lets me know it was not a satellite]; And as that light was moving the other light that was only 500 feet above me flew by again from North to South but this time dimmer. - 7/25/2019 around 3:50am I was laying on my chair looking at the stars, I looked South and saw an airplane flying from South-East to North-West about the size of an inch with solid and blinking lights; Then, much lower moving from South to North a random blinking bright white light went over me and seemed to go higher as it went North and seemed to fade out; Then 4 minutes later it came back from North to South blinking randomly a bright white light as it went South; I sat there another 20 minutes and didn’t see anything more. About 20 minutes after that I saw what looked like a falling star but I don’t think it was because it was right above me falling from West to East like a firework and it appeared to start at that point. - 7/30/2019 around 4:00am I was looking at the stars [a cool night wrapped in a wool blanket] and I said “Come on alien friends, put on a show for me” and I saw a light [tiny like a star/satellite] moving above and in front of me from West to East a short distance and then faded out; Then I said “Come down here close to me about 50 feet”; Shortly after I saw a stream of light fly by from south to north in front of me; Then I said “Now come 10 feet from me”; Then I saw a light at the top corner of my house above my sliding glass door light up dimly and moved to get my attention making me look; I definitely know something is communicating with me [an alien, a light being, something]. - 8/1/2019 around 2:10am laying on my chair in a wool blanket on a cool night I was talking to the aliens asking them

Large bright circle light in the sky just below the Big Dipper. We watched it go across the sky north then it curved south. No clouds in the sky and it was brighter than the plane flying that was flying west of it. We watched it for a few mins then it vanished. There was no flashing lights like the plane and a lot brighter.

Four of us star/planet gazing. Checking out Jupiter with binoculars in attempt to see its moons. Jupiter was almost due south, maybe a few degrees east of due south. Guessing 20 degrees above horizon. Turned away for a second, other 3 witnesses started saying "what is that". Look again toward Jupiter. (unit for distance I will use the width of thumbnail at arm's length). About 1 unit left (east) of Jupiter and 2 or 3 below, two bright lights had now appeared, one exactly over the other. Spacing between the two lights was one unit or very close. Brightness of each was not quite as bright as Jupiter, or brighter than the few stars around Jupiter. Motion, barely detectable, but I felt they were moving north. The top one dimmed out in about 3 to 4 seconds, and then the bottom one dimmed out in the same amount of time. Checked phone app, could not find any satellites to match this close pair. Found some that were about a minute and a half ap! art on the app I have, but nothing found being that close together. One witness perceived their height to be lower than jet liner altitudes. I could not tell. My perception of their speed, after spotting satellites for years, is that they were moving far slower than the usual satellites I see. We did see the ISS at 22:25 hours as well.

Witness was on her way home from work and when approaching the first marker (on the map), got a clear view of a bright, white light over to her left. (See the Black Star on Annotated Map.) Object was previously obscured by trees, but as her vehicle made the turn around the bend in the road, it came into view. She had not seen or known about it before getting to that spot. It was moving slowly in an angle to the right but coming towards her. It appeared to be moving slow and in her general direction. The flight path seemed to be more or less level in flight, neither ascending or decending. When she drove further down the road to where the second marker is on the map, that's when it immediately zipped off to the right and disappeared. (See the Black Star on the Annotated Map.) It was a very quick maneuver that didn't go up or down from there..just off to the right in her field of view. The other strange part about this was that when it shot off to the right, i! t seemed to disappear while in full view, just kind of winked out. There were no trees in the way or anything obscuring the view when that happened. She slowed down and began trying to see if she could find it again but to no avail. When she continued down the road to the third marker on the map, she saw a helicopter (marked as a blue star) which she thought might be lifeflight as they fly up from Nashville and often take people to the hospital down there. It had more than just the white lights so she knew it was something normal. At this point, she was about to tum off of 101st when she called her husband to tell him to check his MADAR unit. The phone call was made at 9:33 pm. She was only a minute or two away from the house when she made that call. (Residence is indicated using a Red Star on the Annotated Map.)

Three circle shaped lights maneuvered across the sky, going straight slowing down than speeding up every 3 or so seconds, the lights would also periodically disappear and reaper with a flash of light as if they were cloaking and un-cloaking.

Shortly after 10PM, my son and I witnessed what we believe to be a UFO. I was putting my 8 year old to bed when we noticed lightning outside his window. So we sat by the open window for a moment and admired the sky in the distance while listening to the thunder. A minute or so went by when I noticed out of the corner of my eye, a bright star-like object moving across the sky. There were no blinking lights so I jokingly told my son it was a UFO. He looked over and the object stopped before our eyes and was hovering!! It was almost like you could see it slightly moving, but it stayed in the same spot. We gave each other this look like, are we really seeing what we think we are?! He then looked back out the window and the light disappeared before his eyes. I double checked to also see if it was gone, and it was but then it reappeared one more time for a few seconds then vanished again before our eyes. Afterward, we both sat there stunned for a moment and tried p! iecing together what just happened. The logical explanation is “weather balloon/satellite.” But my gut is telling me something different. Obviously, I’m not the only one to witness such occurrences, and this isn’t my first time questioning what I’ve seen. I just hope whatever it is, it’s peaceful and just curious!

A bright, small, white light entered the atmosphere and flew left to right for about one second. It looked almost like a comet (shooting star) except that is not possible, as there is extreme light pollution and only about three stars are visible even on a clear day. It was also too close to the ground. After flying, it flashed and disappeared. Three people witnessed the event.

At Surfside hotel in Orlando, Florida, for the week, Was watching cars until boyfriend said “what is that?!” And I looked at the sky where he was looking and we watched 1 big light during a thunderstorm then the light dispersed into 6 smaller lights and flew around then hovered in the sky for a while then slowly disappeared after 2-3 minutes but the main light was left behind for 5 minutes. I can’t believe my eyes don’t think I’m going to sleep for a while.. there was more people in the area but unsure if they saw the same thing.

On 7/28/19 my boyfriend and I had gone out for a cigarette before bed while on vacation in Seaside, OR, and noticed an extremely bright white light in the sky that appeared above the ocean and moved over head. It was moving too quickly to be a star and too slow to be a plane. There were no other lights than the constant bright white moving silently over the sky. We watched it for about 5 minutes until it slowly grew dimmer before our eyes and disappeared. Upon ariving home in Shoreline, Wa, on 7/29/19 and also going out for a smoke around 10:20 at night, we witnessed the exact same phenomena. Bright white light traveling overhead for about 5 minutes, too quickly to be a plane and too slow for a star, until it slowly disappeared. I must also note, both nights have been clear skys with no clouds.
