Milford, DE
I was heading north through the town of Milford noticed a flashing light out of the corner of Mayeye turned and look to the left to see some kind of aircraft banking left but flying parallel to the road after watching it for 10 to 15 seconds it started to level out and head north west and I realized I should be taking a picture or video so by the time I got my phone out begin to record it I have moved a mile or so from me was still able to get a fairly clear footage of the aircraft. It went northwest for about 30 seconds then northeast until it crossed the road that it was running parallel with previously and then headed to North and disappeared from vision within 15 seconds. When I first saw the aircraft it couldn’t of been more than just a few thousand feet above the ground and it resembled a quad copter or drone but roughly the size of a C5 military aircraft I live near an air base and see them all the time landing and taking off so I’m very familiar with! the size given altitude at which they are traveling. Also there was no sound at all coming from the aircraft and as close as it was I would’ve been able to hear some type of engine running was not able to make visual contact on rotors or anything rotating to keep it in-flight.

Want to report this sighting that occurred last night in December the 26th, 2019. We (me and my 11 year old son) was walking to the Walgreens nearest to our home when suddenly out of nowhere I felt that of a strange headache along with a metallic state to my mouth. It struck me extremely odd when my son said to me suddenly, moments after I began feeling the symptoms, that his mouth tasted as if he had a penny in his mouth! As my son said this he placed both his hands over his head, clearly a sign that he, as well, was feeling that of the same symptoms as me! This was at night however , for that of a split second the lighting of the sky appeared that of an orange/purplish light color ... resembling that of a sunrise! We both exchanged a nonverbal look, a look that gave me a chill up my spine, as it had confirmed to me that indeed, my son as well had seen the same strange phenomenon. It is then that my son looked up & his eyes widened so large it frightened me! My son pulled, rather tugged me inside the Walgreens and had stated to me that he had seen that of a wide large light greyish object that was not to far above from us... only a few feet up above the Walgreens. At this point in time I did not see what he had just described, just te sky within a split of a second turning into that of a sunrise color. I calmed him down while we was in the Walgreens photo section and reassured him that due to the sky turning a different color, perhaps as it subsided he thought he had seen what he just described. When we got home, I went to the back last room of our house, which is one of my eldest son’s room. To my utter shock and disbelief, the metallic taste in my mouth along with the headache, which I had experienced along with my son and had left once we saw that ‘strange sunrise’ just a mere 20 to 30 minutes earlier by the Walgreens. I was in quite a stage of shock! Due to the notion that my son has 3 windows parallel to one another, I quickly gave a fast glimpse, expecting to see that ‘strange sunrise’ , if you will... except, this time, i had witnessed was definitely out of this world! A long, grey rectangle.. or should I say ship looking object slowly past the 2 front windows first ... in that of a slow motion, making a left to the 3rd window! I quickly looked at my son’s closet mirror, which allows me to see 2 of the windows of his room to see if what i had just seen was there or what in the world was going on?! Next thing I know I was awakened by my son asking me if my migraine (I am a chronic migraine sufferer) has subsided .... I quickly jumped up from the bed and just couldn’t believe what was happening! It was as if one minute I was staring into the mirror and the next being awakened, mind you, tucked in, in my son’s bed!

My ring camera recorded this. I did not see it with my own eyes. Two rows of lights (6 each row) hovered close to ground, ascended above tree, returned descending, and jumped over fence close to where it started. It appeared to be between 1 to 3 feet long. It appears to be transparent. Only the rows of lights visible. No sound at all.

Large rectangular object with 4-5 flashing lights On 12/22/19 im driving home from a friend's house in oxford though a back road. A somewhat remote part I notice up in to the left a large rectangular object that seemed to be hovering. Had what i want to say 5 maybe 4 flashing lights they were flashing red but one was flashing green.from what I can tell it was not a plane even though the airport is close by. As I look foward i see a police car driving towards me. My guess the cop was following this object there was no way he didnt see it. I got nervous looked forward sped all the way home.I was only able to see the object for seconds an as i was driving, during the incident I thought about pulling out my phone but didn't have enough time. Talked to my friend and asked if theres any radio towers or anything in the sky in that area and he assures me no. Whatever it was definitely wasnt a plane wish i could of look a little longer but i wanted to get home asap.

On my way to practice, heading east on Highway 50, I saw a rectangular figure that was golden in appearance in the sky. With this, I immediatly took out my phone and began recording. It emitted a golden light and moved around quite a bit. It would fade into black and I wondered where it went. Then it reaapeared and faded even faster. I never saw the golden light that was emmited after that. Once the situation was over, myself believing in that energy can be tranferred from entity to entity, I felt an energy that I had never felt before, and it sent chills up my spine and throughout my arms, leaving goosebumps.

I have seen them on multiple occasions I even know where they're at. You can see when they're going to their underground base they turn into a White and Blue Streak and it goes down. I know it sounds crazy but I'm not the only one that's seen it.

My husband and I were doing some rock hounding at Burris Creek and I had a strong urge to take some photos of the sun. I took about 25 shots and noticed in one frame a large bird and a craft of some sort. It is not visible in any of my other shots. Weather was gorgeous, 75, clear and breezy.

Walking with children and they pointed up and asked what it was. I couldn't see it until it passed in front of a star and it distorted the view of the star. Which I then saw it. I could see through it in parts. No noise. Much slower then a plane and very close to the building.

We saw an object in the sky with multiple white lights in a straight row. The object was very long at about 1/4 mile long. The object was about 10,000 feet up. The object flew slowly North East to South west direction. The object was very quiet with no engine noise. The sky was very clear and the object left no sort of trail.

It was 1 object about 100 feet high & it flew horizontal from north to south. Appeared light brown in color. From my angle it was possibly the size and shape of a cheap refrigerator. If i could estimate ground speed, it covered only 2 miles per minute. We are just two average joes who happened to be observing the sky & arguing about which is the north star. We dont use & have no history of mental health issues or of telling crazy stories. I am not scared easily but the unusual shape, speed & flight path set off many alarms in my head. For some reason, this object struck fear in me. Either it or the situation made absolutely terrified

I walk early in the morning before the sun comes up and saw a fast moving, rectangular shaped object in the distance flying horizontally, @1000-1500 feet off the ground. It was glowing bright blue.

Was driving home towards the east . I looked up and saw what looked like a bar of Amber colored lights in the sky and as soon as I told my fiancee to look at it, it seemed like as soon as he made eye contact with it it dissapeared.

It's movement was erratic, going fas then slowing down. It was definitely in an orbital pattern and had the same brownish gold brown hue as Mars. It possible had smaller 'bow tie' ends at either end of the main rectangle shape.

As a lifelong lover of space, weather, aviation craft etc. from a young age I have always found myself staring up to the sky. I mean compulsively. Whenever I step outside, I always check the full skyline for sun, moon, stars, storms, aircraft ...anything. Also as an Engineer I’ve always believed that advanced technologies do or have existed. Despite all this and in 40 years of living I’ve never seen anything unexplainable in the skies. This changed on Oct 31st 2019. I prepped the kids for Trick or Treating then went outside on our north facing deck of my home in the middle of a populated area. Immediately I noticed a black object sitting in the sky maybe a mile or two to the north. At the same time I heard the sound of a small prop plane, and at first I thought this propeller sound was coming from the black object and that the black object was just a typical aircraft. But I then noticed a small, much closer, very slow flying Cessna traveling west to east above I-94 that was clearly making the sound I heard. It was just getting to dusk as I remember the Cessna’s flashing lights were on and I could just still see its paint color. I refocused back on the black object and my heart started to race a bit as it looked unusual and rectangular. Seconds later it started flying towards me, but at 45 degree angle from straight at me. I now could clearly see it was indeed a black colored rectangle (geometric prism) or aka brick shape. It moved with the wider dimension out to its sides (not lengthwise). The object then moved by jumping(?) forward and started now to the ESE direction, I rubbed my eyes as I could not believe it and also it seemed it could blur out of focus. Overall, I got some very clear looks at this object and it was an definitely an engineered flying craft unlike anything I’ve ever seen! There were two larger white circles at each end and about 4 smaller white circles all in-line with the larger two circles across the width of the rectangle. There were no flashing lights and these larger circles weren’t lights it appeared, but looked maybe half spheres recessed into the craft like ceiling can lights or something...I don’t know. They were white, but very soft and hazy, not bright at all. The object was really messing with my mind and senses. It had: zero sound, moved supernaturally smooth (it appeared it could also sort of jump forward in space, unlike typically high speed acceleration) , extremely poor aerodynamics (like a wide brick like geometry), came in and out of focus (optical cloaking?), and not sure if I was panicking but I felt like it saw me watching it. Finally, it flew fast well out in front of the Cessna in the sky and as soon as I reached for my phone it completely disappeared! This all lasted I think about 15 seconds. I’ve been obsessed since then and have read extensively through the NUFORC archives of rectangular craft. I also have performed google image searches and have found some very similar pictures and descriptions. Ive created a detailed drawing using MSPowerpoint It was certainly larger than the Cessna, and was pretty dang big, but not humongous- maybe 180ft width or “wingspan” if you will. Also, due to its direction change from the N to ESE I also saw its depth and height (side profile) very well and it was much smaller maybe 20ft depth x15 ft high, hard to say for sure. So, clearly, dimensionally it strangely was just a 3D rectangle - no protruding tail, wings or features other than the circles on the bottom. I strongly believe the Cessna could’ve easily seen this object as it was maybe just several hundred feet higher in elevation and zoomed out ahead of the Cessna or just to the pilot’s front-left. This was no toy drone and should not have been able to move like this. My belief is the two larger, white, half-spheres have something significant to do with its power/propulsion as when its direction changed one of these circles haziness was more prominent I’ve replayed this sighting over and over in my head and I’m confident in all these descriptions of what I saw. I would have submitted my story sooner, but wanted to do my research and was unsure what I should do.

I was outside in the backyard, and I looked up at the sky to look at stars and to try to see airplanes. I observed two stars to the southwest and one airplane possibly a commercial plane directly above me. I could tell it was an airplane because it had a blinking red light on the bottom and the wing lights were red and green. I then noticed more lights moving and observed an unidentified flying object crossing my field of vision from the south heading northwest. It was two pairs of amber lights flying at a seemingly slow pace. It would have had to be daylight to be sure but I am reasonably confident that the object was above the usual altitude for VFR flight but it seemed much closer and larger than a commercial aircraft which would place it somewhere between two and six thousand feet in my estimation. I have had some ground school and flight sim experience but not enough to identify altitudes at night confidently. The object increased in speed and flew off ! to the northwest.

I was siting on my front porch smoking a cigarette. I had just put down my children for the night. I heard the dryer inside going and was scrolling through Facebook. I looked up from the screen to see what I thought was a plane getting ready to land at Frederick airport, which is about 20 miles away. But I noticed it didnt move and the light on it was getting brighter. Now it was probably a good 2-3 miles from the house. It looked like a star. It shot straight up. Then without a sound it wizzed above and past my house. As it past and got closer. I noticed it was triangular in shape and black but had three round lights on the bottom. The closer it got the bigger it looked. I would say at a whole the ship was the size of a jet plane. But a full black triangle. And the round lights where probably a good 4-5 feet in diameter. It was very quiet. I heard a slight hum as it passed over me. I've been wanting to tell someone but didn't want to sound crazy. I don't know what it was. But it definitely sent me inside for the night.

Approximately midnight. Visibility was fair. I was sitting on my porch and weather was clear. Abruptly while I was on my phone and not observing the sky, a sudden matte darkness took over the sky and a rush of constant dumping rain occurred for about 20-30 seconds. Afterwards the rain stopped and the sky began to clear swiftly, but not from clouds, but from an obvious craft at an unknown height, rectangular or square in shape, low. I saw the edge as it exposed the sky above. No sound, no lights. It just left and was almost like pulling the shade on a window. This is almost a year removed to a report I posted in Banner Elk NC of a football sized craft. I am around 90 miles away from that incident. I do note that my head is extremely foggy today, and I have no recollection of going to bed but that could just be chalked up to a long work week. No drugs or alcohol involved.

Look like the neighbor was flying their drone was hovering for a while (25 mins) then it flew over us realizing that it was much higher in the sky and sound like a jet liner flying over.
