Wheat Ridge, CO
At 10:45pm looking directly west down 49th avenue I saw a very bright light about the size of a golf ball. It looked to be about 40 degrees high and maybe a few miles away. It was so bright it had an aura of light around the outer rim. it shined in the center like crystal or glitter in spots the bottom was rounded and had 5 very small diamond shapped lights around the bottom. I turned to get my mail from the mail box and when I turned around there was the very large white light in the west and also a very large craft in the sky at approximately 49th avenue and kipling st., wheat ridgo, co. The base was a half circle with a verticle bar from the center (almost like an anchor) and looked to be about 50 to 60 feet tall and tilted 15 degrees to the north for the 1st minute and 30 degrees to the north afterward. On the verticle stem it had horizontal white lights approx 10 feet across. There were approx 15 rows of white lights from top to the base. The base was a half circle with the top 2/3 a red light and the bottom 1/3 rounded edge navy blue light. The rows of white lights would flash on all at once, the go off. Then the white lights, red and blue would all light up at once. Then the lights would go off all together. This object went from approximately 49th and kipling north to approximately 68th and ward road in arvada, colorado. I was not able to see it after that. When I looked back for the large white light in the west, it was gone. No sound heard

6 to 8 bright lights approximately -2 brightness. Not as bright as Venus, but brighter than other satellites except for the Space Stations. They moved in a line (not following each other) towards the East until they faded out [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Certain]

Fast white orb lights in formation then instantly turned off way high in the southeast sky. Moving West to East. Later saw individual bright white orb lights about 5 minutes apart traveling on the same plane Bright white for 2 seconds then turned off to nothing. No clouds in the sky for any of this. Thank You.

Driving north on highway 41 towards Yosemite there was a bright light going down the sky and in an instant there was a huge bright light and it suddenly fell straight down, with no question watching the faint cloud “line” of smoke or dust of whatever it may be get larger the longer I drive, and checking the internet the next day, nothing. Nothing to be said or heard or findings or any remnants of a “space debris”.

Saw several lights floating from the southeast to the east direction. Could not hear any sound and did not appear to be Starlink. Lights were observed for 2-3 minutes and disappeared out of view as they drifted east. [NUFORC annotation: Searchlight - Possible]

The object looked like a very large, bright star but upon further inspection, it looked to be a completely stationary light-emitting object that was motionless. It stood out brightly over the stars. I snapped 4 photos with my Google Pixel 7a and upon zooming the images, it appears that the object is actually structured. Or, if what appears to structure around the light is a photographic artifact, I would like to know. I am attaching 2 of the 4 photos (as well as the enlarged versions).

I looked out of my window and i saw a really bright light that appeared to be a star just much brighter it stayed there still for a while until i got up to my window to have a closer look it then started moving as the bright light dimmed and started flashing red it looked like an aeroplane however they don’t emmit lights so bright and stay still so its impossible it was one. I filmed it as it flew away and went to tell my mother as she came to my room to check it out the bright light i saw before it left was back and what i had just witnessed repeated itself with my mother there to witness. I keep seeing strange flashing lights similar to that one since that day too small to be planes. [NUFORC annotation: Aircraft - Probable]

Del Mar, CA
Looked up while walking north towards Villa de la Valle and saw the brightest white light, thought star but way too close to be a star. I couldn't figure out what it was while walking to car but it was absolutely stationary. After a couple minutes of walking I looked up again before crossing the street and it wasn't there anymore, like it vanished. It was directly overhead the Del Mar Fair.

We were stargazing and I was staring at this supposed plane because it was moving side to side and at speeds unlike the rest of the planes in the sky, until eventually this ‘plane’ just stopped moving and began hovering in the middle of the sky. Then the star like object next to it began to move closer to it and then after a moment the 2 UFOs separated moving unilaterally from each other and there they stayed hovering above the city of Glendale Az.

Saw a light in the sky moving super fast, wasn't an aircraft as it wasn't flashing or didn't have any coloured lights also was moving way to quick and was flying quite low but was super bright. Then we walked to the park and saw a massive blue beam of light looked like it was pulsing a little and was moving about. Have no idea if it's anything but was definitely something I have never seen before. Also it was witnessed by my girlfriend too. Happened between 12:00 - 12:45 at night.

At 3AM, I went out to lay in the grass and smoke a cigarette. I watched something star-like hover in place at first, but then it started to zig zag, it also moved in circular motions. I watched it until 5AM, at which point it started to fly away fast in a straight line.

I have taken photos, but have never noticed this shape, light in the sky, at first I thought it was just a planet, but a planet does not move positions as quick as this does, and at around 2 hours it just disappears, when I made the photo bigger it looks like a dark colored spider with the bright light in the center. I am hoping you can put me in contact with someone in Australia so I can show them the photos I have taken. Thank you for your time. I do not know how to take the photos off my mobile phone and put on the laptop to send to you.

It was about 1am and I went outside to smoke on the terrace in the garden. From the back of the house there’s nothing but meadows a river and lakes and at night it’s really dark as there’s no street lights etc as it’s extremely rural. I turned the outside light on and was smoking, and about 2mins into smoking I look directly above me / up at the stars, and one was much brighter (about 30%) than all the others. Like a white blue colour. As I was looking at it, it turned off like. It was switched off. The light (shrank) minimalized inwards and turned off, so I looked down and thought “huh that doesn’t normally happen” then looked back and it was in a different place in the sky. Same area, but not where it was before. Same light intensity, same brightest star. Then it turned off again in the same way. When it did, this horseshoes shaped spiral, light trace, in an amber colour, like light trail, flash up and then faded. I then looked straight ahead, not understanding what I just saw and over the fields / horizon I saw a shooting star, but not as bright and much faster shoot from my left to right away from me over the fields and over the horizon then fade away.

My roommate went out to walk his dog and called me on my phone to tell me to go outside and look at something in the sky. At first it looked like an asteroid was coming to hit earth then i realized it was going away from us. It looked like a planet like mars or jupiter but it was much bigger and traveling very fast. I could see airplanes in the night sky and compared to them it was traveling much faster. It had a huge perfectly square or rectangular trail behind it that was glowing orange with these weird 90 degree swirls inside the trail that were also glowing dark orange. I asked my roommate how long he was looking at it and he said a minute or two but it had started in a completely different area in the sky than it was when i was looking at it. He said it had changed directions and thats why he called me to come look at it. I tried looking up meteor showers or anything like that in my area and couldnt find anything. I am usually someone who wouldnt believe in UFOs or anything like that but this was just so strange. The size of the trail and how it was so perfectly straight and square with those shapes in the trail i just cant wrap my mind around. My roommate tried to record a video but it was too dark for his phone to capture anything. I am very interested in trying to find sky camera footage of it so I don’t go crazy.

June 12, 2023 from about 10:42 pm to about 10:44 pm, I was outside my house burning trash, I saw a horizontal row of about 10 white lights North West of my position. The lights appeared to be about 200 feet in the air, then lower as it approached, then higher as it moved away. It appeared to be about 100 feet wide. I did not count the lights because I quickly went to my house to get a video camera to verify the object. All of the lights were evenly spaced except the lights at each end were spaced slightly further apart than the rest of the lights. The row of lights was moving South towards me and appeared to grow larger and move lower as it approached. I retrieved my video camera from the house and as I returned outside with my video camera the lights moved higher and towards the East. As I pointed the video camera toward the lights, the lights dimmed as it was moving away from me. I was unsuccessful at obtaining video. The lights were mostly horizontal but did change orientation tilting slightly as it moved. The lights moved together and spacing of the lights did not change as it moved, except it appeared larger as it approached and then smaller as it moved away. There was no noticeable sound from the lights. This represents the approximate spacing of the lights: * * * * * * * * * * * [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

My spouse and I saw a linear pattern of lights moving slowly over Bellingham, WA for about 30 seconds. It was a large structure and the lights appeared to be almost like large bay windows with light shining out. Honestly, it reminded me of a fleet ship from Star Wars as odd as that sounds.

Me and someone else had been at our campsite in Canyonlands for a couple of hours and it had been dark for around one hour. We were taking pictures of the stars (with all headlamps and flashlights out) around 10 feet from our tent. We both saw a bright orange light through thin tree branches, we looked at it for a few seconds and decided to get a better look because we were both intrigued. We moved around the tree and it was gone. We went back to the same spot we saw it but it was gone. The light from our point of view was a half inch in diameter but we had no idea how far away it was. We went to bed. The next morning, we tried to find where it came from. Behind our campsite (where the light came from) was a small canyon that was impassable due to giant rocks. Our best bet on where the light came from was whether it was 15 or so feet from us or a couple of miles or more on top of a rock formation around a hundred feet tall, definitely not possible for a human to get to or probably all ground animals. It was at Chesler Park in Canyonlands.

We were standing outside. I looked up at the sk. Halfof it was covered in clouds. On top of the clouds suddenly appeared a blue light. It came out of nowhere and seem to fly towards us. Then it stopped. Then it moved quickly to the left. And then it moved straight down quickly. And then it disappeared. About a minute later it returned. Same erratic movements back-and-forth and up and down quickly. And then it disappeared.

Sitting in my back yard looking for shooting stars and what I thought were planets started to slowly move around. I thought I was losing my mind so I started to record it. The longer I watched the more I felt like I saw start to move. It freaked me out there seemed like there was so many. At 18:00 minutes into 1 or the videos I took a low flying one came over me. I reported seeing a metal ball in the sky not long ago, I think these are the same! They move almost like they are floating. They are a decent size. No sound. Observatory like behavior. The videos I have were unsuccessful uploading due to the file size it says…You’re welcome to contact me if you have another way I can send it!

Multiple yellow, blue, and white lights traveling along this alien ‘highway’ always headed south, meandering, some slow, some fast and low, a very busy morning until sunrise.

I was walking my dog outside the day after all that smoke from CA, the sun had set but I looked up in the cloudy sky (up into the south west sky) and saw what looked light a spotlight machine for an event, I was thinking what event would have that around here... 3 or 4 spotlights sort of like there was an event and fancy lights but no beams from the ground... and the pattern was weird, not consistent, 3/4 lights but then a 5th light showed up and there was no longer a pattern. This lasted maybe 5 minutes, I looked around my street to see if anyone was out so I could ask if they saw and what they thought. I thought maybe a plane at first but then saw an plane and it had flashing lights, was very clearly a plane, could hear it. These other light orbs I saw were almost like a spotlight on low clouds but it was within the clouds, orbish but I could only see the light oval. They all "flew" south after a few minutes. I googled, looked up UFO NJ the next day, I am 100% sure what I saw was not spotlights, not helicopter, not plane, not drone... no sounds. no flashing lights. It was a bunch of steady oval glowing things within clouds.

I was at work it was 1249 am partially raining off and on. I saw the light orbs sitting stationary. It was two of them, stationary in the sky I saw this from a window at my work, I hurried outside to see more a total of 3 they were slowly rising then would slightly stop then fade out quickly only to have another appear below. They emitted a bright reddish color I took a few videos. And your thing says it exceeds the size I would happily email you the videos, I also posted it on my YouTube page if that’s easier I couldn't believe it and after the thing in Las Vegas I'm petrified.
