My fiancé and I were on our porch with his parents. I looked up in the sky and saw I the distance a glowing orange orb moving across the sky silently all of a sudden taking an immediate left turn then disappearing into the distance. 15 minutes later, another orange orb appeared in the sky in the distance silently moving across it and disappearing into the distance. I just saw it again as I’m typing this.

Roswell, NM
At approximately 20:15 my wife, child, and I. were traveling south on US. 285. We were south of Vaughn, NM. We witnessed several orange balls of light. They were a little bit lighter than a street light in color. These objects were about twice the size of a star. As we drove south towards Roswell, NM, we noticed them. They would disappear for about three to four minutes at a time. They would reappear in the same way, which is to say, it was like flipping a switch off and on. As they sat in the sky, they were about the distance of your hand sideways at arm's length off of the horizon. The objects were to the west of US. 285. This is a clear night with little air traffic. they would reappear and multiply. At one point there was no less than six visible at a time. . All of them stayed in the same general area. They did not fall towards earth as would a flare, or fire work. When they would multiply, they would do so by moving horizontally. The hole sighting lasted ap! proximately 45 minutes . Starting at 20:15, and ending at approximately 21:00 New Mexico time.

Kingsville, OH
it looked like red ash from a fire floating in the air but there were no fires near here. At first, I thought they were a lot of planes or a prison escape but it was so close and there was no sound at all. They seemed to have had a motherboard, one of the aircraft looked like a large star that was moving fast but not slow enough to be a star.

Seen by 4 adults and 2 children sitting around a campfire by our lake. All sober. I have video but it doesn’t show up very well.

Fiery , crescent, changed shape numerous times. Did not seem to move from position very much at all compared to the stars. Lots of orange fire pulsating. Three lights showed up numerous times when the crescent shape was in the sky one light on each end and one In the middle. Stayed in the eastern sky for 4+ hours. We tried photographing on the camera and phone but it would disappear. Finally caught several images using out binoculars. The photos showed bright purple, pink, blue, and green orb.

Weston, WV
At approximately about 10:15pm EST on Thursday 9-24-2020, as me and my daughter were out on our back porch talking, a large fireball like object , was spotted in the sky north east of Weston, WV. The object was seen rising in the north eastern sky, seeming growing larger, and then it floated towards the north for several thousand feet, and then seeming to fly off into the North Eastern sky. All of this happened within about a minute of time. The fire ball from our prospective was much larger than any stars or planets in the skies. With the cloudy conditions in the area, made the planets of Jupitar, Saturn, and Mars are hard to see. I am an avid sky watcher and even checked the Fight24 Radar app to see if there were any planes in the skies above us, and in that time there wasn’t anything over the skies of Weston for a 40 mile radius.

Montreal (Canada), QC · Canada
Bright white light, came down from the sky on a 45 degree angle for about 2 seconds very fast, about 20,000 feet, then disappeared from the tree coverage, then shot back up into the sky on a 90 degree angle and gone in about one second, was a cloudless night. Moved very fast across the sky, about 5 to 10 miles in 2 seconds, then right up into the sky at extreme speeds, and lost sight after about one second. View was from Montreal South West area, but looked like it could have travelled over a part of Laval (North of Montreal ). Had no time to record, as happened to fast.

Last night I fell asleep with my bedroom window open. My neighbor has a loud screeching bird that woke me around 10:30-11pm. So I closed my bedroom window. After I closed and locked it, there was a bright light coming into my room. Like a helicopter was shining it’s light right into my window. So I got back up to look. When I peeked through the blind, there was a white light the size of a basket ball in the air heading towards my neighbors house. I could not see it once it passed my neighbors house.

I was sitting on the beach with my friend, we saw a large craft of 7-8 fire balls shoot up out of the Long Island sound. It went up spinning. It went up a few hundred feet, then the fire balls turned off and turned into solid red lights (7-8 not spinning) the ufo then shot east at a high rate of speed, following was a f18 with full afterburner on. It wen directly after the craft. I took poor quality videos. (Three to be exact but short one second bursts because I was panicking)

Duck Creek Village, UT
I am camping in Dixie National Forest near Duck Creek Village, Utah. I went out to pee while it was still quite dark (small crescent moon) but cloudless, and noticed what I first thought was the most unusual straight line of stars that I'd ever seen. In a matter of seconds I went from thinking it was a string of bright stars across the sky; then I thought they were moving; then I KNEW they were all moving in a straight path from south to north at an unknown altitude. If they had not been moving, they would have appeared to be just like a very straight line of bright stars in the sky. I could not see too far to the north in the direction they were traveling because of trees, but when I looked to the south, I could see where they were originating from. It was as if they were appearing out of something, but I could see nothing and there was no sound at all. It looked like they were just appearing or entering out of nowhere. They were mostly pretty equidistant from each other, but a few would appear more closely spaced than others. I'd guess that I could see about 15 degrees of the sky (out of 180) from where they originated to where I could no longer see them behind the trees. It took them less than 10 seconds to cover that! distance - again, altitude unknown. I guess it could have been a stationary military craft emitting munitions with tracers, but there was absolutely no sound on a very quiet and still night. Furthermore, the objects did not seem to be traveling in an arc for the distance that I could see them and there were no trails. They just looked like bright stars that were moving across the sky. Coolest thing I've ever seen in the night sky, that's for sure. I thought of going back inside my RV to get my phone for pictures, but nothing I ever try to photograph at night can be seen, I didn't want to miss "the show". If you find out that there were military exercises in the area or any other information, I would like to hear about it. By the way, I do not drink or do drugs, nor am I on any medications. Thanks

Husband and I thought it was Mars we were looking at. Next thing we know the "star" appeared to get bigger glowing bright red then became smaller and smaller in size. It twinkled white then faded away. 3 minutes later a second one came from another direction and did the same thing. Never seen anything like this in my life! And I'm always looking up!

Canisteo, NY
I was driving through the countryside, when I seen a shooting star. I thought it look weird coming in fast at a weird angle (upside down sharp-curved like). Then it disappeared. Then 1 minute later, I saw a flickering light hovering above a heavily wooded area. The light shine so brightly, almost like an LED light except you could see the beam of light shining below. The big white light shine through the tree tops. It was suspended low in the tree line. The light flickering white, yellow, then bright white again. The beam only shone through the trees when it flicker to bright white. This lasted only a few seconds before completely vanishing.

We were outside watching an outdoor movie and swimming in the pool at 9:06 PM on September 5, 2020 we noticed a rather low, circular, fire ball, orange light hover over the house. We joked that it was a drone and somebody was watching us but then realized that it did not appear to have any LED lights or blinking lights. It was just one big round orange light. We have previously watched the space station go over our house multiple times and occasionally other things in the night sky. This was definitely something out of the ordinary and very much unlike a plane or anything else we’ve ever seen. It then went around towards the front of the house where my husband and brother-in-law followed it and watched it suddenly speed up rapidly and then it just disappeared.

Stoneham, MA
On 9/4/20 around 9PM my 35-year-old son was taking our dog for a walk when he barged into the house and told me to come out and see this UFO. I came out with my wife and other son (31 YOA), at which time we all observed this orange or fireball coming from the Boston area, northerly towards Stoneham. It did not seem to be traveling fast, there was no engine sound as a place or helicopter would make. It turned Easterly and slowed down almost to a standstill, then another one caught up to it about 30 seconds later and it continued traveling east and the 2nd one followed it. Within a minute a 3rd one showed up from the same flight path and followed #2. Then less than a minute the 4th one got in line and they all headed east. My son thought that there may have been one more at the beginning one more in front of the first one that I observed . I posted on FB but no responses yet.

Looke out my window. I saw what looked like a fireball. It stopped and I watched it for a minute then it took off at lightning speeds. Inside the ball looked like a roaring fire. Like the sun. An hour later I saw 2 sets of small grey balls or spheres flying in formation shaped like a triangle and moving very slowly. It was going in the direction that the fireball came from.
