UFO appeared as a slow shooting star just outside of orbit, then realized it was UFO by its zigzag pattern. I flashed SOS to ship multiple times. It disappeared after 45 sec going south. Then reappeared east beginning to flash its external light in response to my flashlight it was now bigger as It was closer slightly. Like a passenger plane it remained zigzagging and then shot off at the speed of light south. Leaving a trail of light for half a second.

Craft hovering further than airplane distance. Would change shape from round to oval. I thought it was Space X, but there was no trail. The craft started to drop small lights which quickly disappeared. I then thought it might me a meteorite, but it remained in the same spot for 15mins, finally disappearing.

On a Sunday evening I was setting on my couch in the Livingroom, and I hear a loud sound over my head but didn't think any more about it. Later on, that same night around 3:30am I started to experience strong things happening in my bedroom like the light go off and on. Around 2:30am I thought I was dreaming I woke up looks and it was something setting on my bed. It was black with pointed ears I thought it was my dog and I say what are doing in here it jumps off the bed and went under it I got up and turn on the light and looks under my bed and I didn't see anything. Much later I was waked by a sound of beeping look on the wall and seen this object that looks like a shadow has a green light around at that time I seen it face and head. What I saw was white head with big eyes and a body that was tall and very longer, hands look like a web with fingers. And all of this I had seen in the dark I was so afraid of what I seem I just wrote it off as a dream. From that time till now I experience things in my bed like something in my mattress moving around and touch my feet. I called the police and told them that something was in my house upstairs, they came out and didn't go up there they just used their lights to look and told they told me that they didn't see anything. I went to bed and same thing happened again. I turn off the light and seem this face and head on the wall and ceiling. I am so afraid to sleep in my bedroom. Please help me. All of these things are going on at my house. I can tell you more if you call me.

It was dark out and I noticed something in the sky that seemed to be moving differently than an airplane would. I took slow motion videos. It seems to be something odd.

Had arrived outside my home at roughly 8:26 or 8:27pm on November the 5th, 2023. I had parked my car in the street, with the driver's side facing South. I had gathered my things and stepped outside my vehicle. When I closed the door, I had been facing south. A single, large orb of white light was spotted in the Southeast, above a neighbor's house. It appeared to be stationary. The orb then began to travel east, accelerating as it did. The object then made a fish hook maneuver down and then towards the West before vanishing from sight. There were no other witnesses present, and the entire event lasted less than a minute in length. Other than the sight of the object and the fish hook path it took, nothing else was deemed unusual. Observer is a white male, in his early 30s. Does not have superstitious or supernatural proclivities. Has observed meteorological phenomenon in area before; including comets, meteor showers, and a shooting star. There are also several airports in the region, as well an FAA tech center.

Santa Fe, FL
While driving towards Worthington Springs, FL from Lacrosse, FL with my husband, at 7:52pm, I noticed 2 bright, warm white lights in the sky. I compared it to headlights on a close hill, as it appeared much nearer than planets, stars, planes, etc. I had my husband pull up plane finder to see if any planes/helicopters were the culprit as we do have a nearby airport(but this still would have been very low for a plane.) I knew it was either stationary or moving towards us, as I couldn't see any movement. My husband took pictures but they are poor and do not show the formation. There is no cell tower in this area either. I lost sight of it behind the trees for a bit, then saw it again over a field. Here, I was able to get a view from the underside. (Horrible sketch attached.) It was 3 large, white, warm toned lights in a triangle formation, with smaller lights speckled about, all the same color. It was dark surrounding all these lights, but I cant tell you for certain that this was "a craft" as opposed to a product of my mind. I did understand it to be such. This did not look like any aircraft we know of or could Google. It appeared to be slowly moving in the direction we came from at this point. I kept driving and lost sight again, never seeing it cross the road in my rear view mirror. This object also did not have any sound and was visible for 4 minutes without much movement. It was definitely larger over the field, but we were driving toward it, so it's hard to tell what the movement distance/speed really was. It began about penny size then was golfball at second appearance. It was no longer there on our trip back ~20 minutes later. I will attach a picture from when we first saw it, but it isn't worth anything as it just appears as a blob of white light. (You will see two poles on the side of the road, mid photo. Look immediately above those. Other lights visible are reflections from my dash.) Terrible sketch shows the underside(I originally tried to draw it at an angle, like I saw it, but I can't.) I tried to illustrate the darkness around the lights. The positioning is all accurate. Feel free to text me about this. I'm not putting "I'd like to be contacted" because I feel like that's a waste of your time, but if you need anything, message me.

On Sunday, November 5, 2023, at 6:20 pm (pst), I was about to make a left turn from a busy strip mall parking lot onto a residential street in a neighborhood that is located in the middle of San Diego, California. When I turned my head to see if the road was clear, I noticed what appeared to be 5 bright white shining lights over to my left approximately 720 feet above my head. At first, I thought they were street lights. When I quickly realized they were not, I reached for my phone that had been setting in the console next to me and I snapped photos. These orb like objects didn't move. Nor did they didn't emit sound, or beams of light. I sat staring at them for a minute or three as they continued hovering motionless above my head. I looked around and I yelled out my window to a couple who were standing at their car, 'do you see that?' and 'hello, anybody see what's going on over here?' The people were oblivious to everything going on around them. The two drunk individuals that could be heard screaming at each other from across the parking lot didn't see the orbs either. Neither did the person I just cut off to snap photos. I thought I was the only one who could see them. After reading some of the posts here on this site, I discovered I am not the only one to have witnessed this fascinating phenomena. Just 9 days before, on October 27, 2023, a woman who lives not more than 3 miles from where I was saw the orbs, witnessed the same thing. Although, the details of what she saw weren't exactly the same as what I had seen, it was close enough. She saw the orbs at around the same time as I had seen them (around 6:20 pm pst). She counted 5 orbs hovering above in the night sky, too. When I drove a block closer to where the orbs were hovering, They disappeared without a trace. In a blink of an eye, they were gone. I am left with wonder. Was it 5 orbs that I saw in the night sky or was it 1 extremely large craft in the shape of a triangle?

On Sunday November 5th of 2023 at 2:45pm at 86th and Zionsville Rd in Indianapolis, I was looking up into the sky when I observed a circular whirlwind and about 40 or more unidentified chevron winged aircraft in the sky. The aircraft was very high up and was visible for about 5 minutes. I only caught 52 seconds of it in video and I took 1 snapshot picture. Most of the aircraft had disappeared or fallen out of my view by the time I made the video and took a photo.

Driving down the highway in the middle of the night I was the only one on the road. A large orb of light appeared in the sky to my left and was moving at an insanely fast speed in the same direction as me. It stopped in midair and stayed still for a second before turning to the right and continued on extremely fast without having to build speed. Was out of view after another 5 seconds.

There was one bright light, with 3 smaller lights on the horizon to the east. The smaller lights were up, down, side to side, crisscrossing each other. They Would be bright, then dim or disappear, then be seen in another part of the sky. Radios were staticy, animals going crazy, animal behaviours were different.

I was sitting on the street in front of my house, with my relatives, then I suddenly looked up at the sky, and then I saw some lights in the sky, at first I thought it was a plane, but it wasn't because it was completely shaped, and the lights of the planes are red, and the lights this time were orange, these lights were forming a triangle. Then my relatives also started to see these lights, I asked one of them to take my cell phone so I could take a photo of the UFO, but before bringing me the cell phone that was inside the house, the UFO disappeared in the middle of the clouds, when the clouds gone, the UFO was no longer there, it simply disappeared. Sorry if my English is bad, I speak Portuguese...

My husband and I were outside. I noticed a object which I thought was a large bird but when it didn't flap its wings and the sun reflected off it I brought it to attention of my husband, He is prior military, It was moving quite fast no sound at all and gong in the direction of Crane Military depot. We both was concerned they make ammunition and bombs ext. for the military. didn't know if we should follow it or not... It was picking up altitude and speed. My husband grabbed some paper and drew what he saw. It was oblong kind of tilted and shiny. the sun reflected off of it ....

Clayton, OK
I was driving on Hwy. 2 moving SE toward Clayton, OK. At first I was noticing contrails in the sky. I saw a black dot way up in the sky thinking it might be a hawk or an eagle. I continued to watch as it got closer to me and realized that it might be a government drone. It had no wings was black and cigar shaped. It was at least 1000 ft in the air and moving from the SE to the NW. I have never seen anything like this. I know what drones look like but this did not have an apparent propulsion system. I do not know what I saw, I did not stop my car to watch as it went above my car. I was not looking for any strange flying object. I cannot unsee what I saw and it puzzles me. I would like to have an explanation of what I saw in the daytime over rural Oklahoma.

I've noticed this bright weird orb in the sky off and on for the last month. When I look st it through my binoculars, it seems to be alive. It's definitely not a star or a drone or an airplane or helicopter. It's something I've never seen before. It looks like a puffer fish and it moves in the sky at night.

I was on the beach with my partner, watching the sky, and towards the south of the Southern Cross constellation, we began to notice lights, about the size of a planet, moving in different directions, sometimes one alone, other times two, even four at the same time; in a short period of time these would appear, move at different speeds, and fade away. Me encontraba en la playa con mi pareja, observando el cielo, y hacia el sur de la constelación de la Cruz del sur, empezamos a apreciar luces, del tamaño de un planeta aproximadamente, moviéndose en distintas direcciones , a veces 1 sola, otras 2 , incluso 4 al mismo tiempo ; en un pequeño periodo de tiempo estas aparecían, se movían a distintas velocidades , y se desvanecían.

I have been reading all things ufo for years. I have seen things a few times but never really was sure it couldn’t be explained away. Until a few days ago! Im in true shock as I try to type now. A few nights ago my husband and I were driving and I at first thought it was a huge light on a pole but then I saw lights go on around the object it rose up and blinked out. I clearly saw a saucer with lights one by one in quick order showing its shape and size before rising quickly to blink out. I was almost scared to finally witness a true ufo as I always asked for clear proof. I was asking my husband he had to have seen what I did and telling him I finally know and I remember irritation because he kept saying he wasn’t sure what he saw but it was so close and clear there was no way to have confusion. Then im feeling overwhelming excitement and feeling to we both somehow dropped it completely. I was surging with emotions and instantly completely calm somehow. It left us both and we had no memory whatsoever. Tonight we were in the car at night don’t recall our conversation or my thoughts but it hit me out of no where what we saw the other night. He barely remembers it but recalls parts. I had to question it a dream like im crazy but I know it happened. We witnessed something real and it left our minds mind conversation. I have read of people claiming this and I now lived through this. I would never let this go it’s not like me at all. What happened to us? Is this worth sharing? We experienced something strange and I understand others whom claimed they dropped the subject quickly more than anyone might. We lost our memories I feel like I have something worth hearing. I have never experienced memory loss especially happening with my adrenaline racing while taking to completely nothing and calmness. I wasn’t supposed to remeber and im grateful I was with someone to corroborate something so hard to believe. At least can someone reply so I know it was read and if possible share any thoughts or information to help me not feel so taken advantage of… can’t think of the right word to describe an invasion of memory like this. Thanks for your time i

Mansfield, NJ
I was on my way to my local ATM (I have receipt 8:51pm) so it must have been no more than 10 minutes before that, driving north on Homestead Drive in Homestead Adult Community in Columbus, NJ, I had just turned the slight left-turning curve about 10 meters north of Chestnut Hill Lane, when I saw very low in the sky, just above the treetops above the houses at the intersection of either Deep Hollow and Homestead Drive or Hill Top Lane and Homestead Drive, two alternating flashing red lights. They alternated about twice per second. The lights looked like short line segments. The lights looked about the same distance apart as the width of Homestead Drive. It was absolutely pitch black. I could see nothing else in the sky: I could not see any object to which they were attached. The two alternating red lights moved together as if they were part of the same rigid structure in the same direction, eastward and out of sight, as the line connecting the lights. I had all the windows of my car rolled up, because it was quite cold. So, I heard nothing. They moved off eastward over Homestead Drive and somehow out of view. The entire event lasted about ten seconds. No time for me to take my cellphone out and snap a photo. While I saw this, my feeling was that this was a police helicopter of some type, or some kind of police or military craft, because the lights were red, and because we have had many airplanes and helicopters from McGuire AFB fly over Homestead in broad daylight, since 1993. I felt it was strange, because of how low it was, but not strange enough to call it alien. It definitely WAS an unidentified flying object: a UFO, as I could not identify it. The fact that these two lights did not make a noise did not impress me. I do not remember them making a sound. But, I would really need to do an independent experiment to compare to the sounds made by known McGuire flyovers. There was some car ahead of me, about 50 meters, on Homestead Drive, traveling in the same direction I was. I was not able to read their license plate. They would have certainly been able to see this thing, too. On Monday, November 6, I posted a note in our clubhouse asking for whomever this driver was, who was out at this same time and location, to contact me. After I got home from the ATM, I called the guardhouse/frontgate to ask if they these lights. The man on duty told me he saw nothing.
