San Clemente, CA
I witnessed 5 separate dark but bright red objects follow the same trajectory. The first followed by the next. I spotted them about the height you would see a helicopter approaching towards you. Then stopped for a milli second before heading up at about a 60 degree angle at an extremely high rate of speed. I watched each accend until they went out of sight, which took 3 to 5 seconds. The last object followed the same path but was a bit slower in speed. There was no sound other lights or trail. These were definately seperate distinct objects moving in the same deliberate path. I have never seen anything before that I would descrbe as a "UFO". Also, I observed these immediately following the 7.1 earthquake which hit about 150 miles north in Ridgecrest Ca. My girlfriend caught a video of one but it does not capture what we saw visually. I describe them as "light". She says they were more squared or rectangled.

I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn’t fall back asleep so I was just staring out my window. There was what I thought was a plane that was very far away or a star because when I first saw it it was blinking kind of like a plane or a distant star would. But I realized that it was moving but it wasn’t moving like a plane at all which is what caused me to continue watching it. Eventually the light stopped blinking and just stayed lit. The movements seemed to be very random. The best way I can describe it is that it was moving very slowly from the south to the north and it would randomly make sudden up and down movements. Then after watching it for about 45 minutes the objects light all of a sudden faded very fast and it was gone.

Dallastown, PA
I've seen this bright light for the past 10 years in dallastown/spry area. It is erratic, moves backwards. Forward, up, down and is rather quick. When I first saw it. I thought it was a Satlelight or the ISS. but the way it moves is very quick and the motions are like its floating.

Southold, NY
I was lying in bed, looking out the window (although I was NOT half-asleep) when I saw a bright blue light (much brighter than a plane) flash twice, then disappear, then reappear and flash another two times, and then it left my field of view. It was moving fast, much faster than a plane. My guess is it would traverse the entire sky in 10 or so seconds. I would think it was a meteor, but meteors don't flash multiple times at the same brightness, and I would think it was something like the ISS but the ISS was not visible from my location at the time. Maybe some sort of secret SpaceX launch? Anyway, I'm not super sure this was an alien craft, I just wanted to put this out there in case anyone in the area saw something similar.

It was a ball of light that looked like it was swirling around when zooming in closer (maybe pulsing), it glided along the night sky, then it dropped down a significant way (nothing like a plane), then changed direction, left & then round in a circle & just disappeared. It was a clear night, no planes or anything in the sky. This object looked like a small dot of light, moving in the sky & was up quite high. When zooming in, it definitely looked like it was swirling or pulsating & just fell down & stopped...moved left & round in a circle. This object was not moving like a plane, helicopter or satellite.

Belington (Barbour Co. Fairgrounds), WV
I was attempting to take photos of fireworks at our county fairgrounds with my phone. I was reviewing my photos the next day when I noticed the streak of light above left of a single burst. My son had been video recording the event. He reviewed his video and found the object 'flash' through approximately 2-3 seconds of video. Each appearance lasted about 1-2 tenths of second, according to our phone video time counter

Ouray, CA
Today, I was in my room in one of our vacation houses watching a movie on my laptop. I had my window open because it was getting hot when I started to hear my neighbor's tarps start to flap and the trees right outside sway. I thought it was just a breeze but then all of the sudden a constant flow of wind strong enough to push my blinds almost to my ceiling occurred. About 2 seconds after that happened the double doors (made of glass) in my room started to light up. The doors are covered by a thin sheet due to a window on the other side and I was trying to block out sun light. This light was powerful enough to go through the window through the sheet and into my room. The whole thing lasted about ten seconds not fast enough for me to get up and look out the window but after i got up and looked outside there was no breeze no firework signs it was quite. There was no noise except during this for the items affected by the wind. No firework pops or bangs. Me being skeptical I figured it was just a gust of wind but then I smelt a terrible sulfur smell and a burning metallic smell. This lead me to google where I found out a lot of people report the same smells as I did. This all occurred about 10 minutes before it was pitch black.

Sat still for 10 minutes then separated slightly, then instantly took off across the sky. Faster than any craft of this planet! Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides little contact information. PD

White Plains, KY
At first, I thought it might have been a helicopter or a plane with large lights, but then I thought that lights from an airplane cycle through red and white lights and there was no noise coming from the object. I know a helicopter at a far enough distance can’t be heard but they were coming in from the southeast and heading northwest past my area and at the closest distance I still couldn’t hear anything from the flying object. As it passed by I saw another one and then another, after about fifteen minutes I ended up counting out 13 of these crafts flying the same direction but in a kind of two lane type pattern. The closest I could guess I saw these crafts was more than a mile and I’ve heard helicopters when there were well past a mile and flying away from my vicinity. I’m not sure if anyone else has claimed to have saw them or even if I actually saw them but I was outside with my cousin at the time and she saw them with me, so maybe. Anyway I just wanted to report in my possible findings and hope that there is some truth to what I saw.

Saw orange ball of light a half mile away. It was 300 yards above the ground moving slowly across the sky for 10 minutes. Then it stopped, moved slowly straight up about 100 yards, then disappeared.

Clinton, CT
Two large, independent, bright, slow moving "lights" like low altitude meteors travelling from east to west, then growing dimmer and shifting direction to travel north. First one then the second, then growing dimmer and disappearing. No flights in vicinity on flightradar24. (( Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)

Williston, VT
Just before the fireworks, looking west we saw a bright flashing, almost neon blue light moving across the sky. At first we thought it was a plane until it stopped mid air and hovered for 20 min. or so. It then reversed direction, disappearing and reappearing. Several times it increased its speed going much faster than a drone or airplane. It disappeared again only to reappear seconds later in the eastern sky. No sound what so ever.

Palm Coast, FL
At approximately 21:25 I went into my back yard to see neighbors fire works next street over. I saw a green flashing light moving in a northerly direction at a very quick speed. I thought to myself that thing is moving pretty fast. My first thoughts was a plane but then it made a large circular movement at a speed and maneuver no conventional air craft or helicopter could possibly perform. After it’s maneuver it went stationary for about 20sec. After about 10 sec it started flashing a bright red. I did not want to lose sight of it however I wanted to grab someone to validate what I saw. I was gone for 5 seconds and when I returned it was gone. This is something I have never witnessed before.

Hinesville, GA
At 915 pm on the night of July 4, 2019. I witnessed a bright orange/reddish light low on the horizon approaching from the East at what seemed a high rate of speed. I kept listening for the sound of a plane or chopper but as the light got brighter (closer, it seemed) it began to seem to slow. when almost directly overhead it veered toward the north and the light slowly dissipated as if gaining altitude and disappearing as it would if traveling very fast away from Earth...

Warren, OH
Bright light traveling from south to north at a modest/high rate of speed. The light was similar to the color of Venus. The light stopped at what looked to be north of Cortland, Ohio, very high in the sky. The light hovered and flashed a very bright red and and whiteish color. At times it looked to dart up and down and left to right 40 to 60° N.E. and even in a circulator motion. We viewed this from our our back yard then from bedroom window until sunrise.

Big Bear, CA
There was a star like object that was the brightest in the sky. It started to move faster than a shooting star. It went one direction then went dim and went back in the opposite direction. The light went dark and then blinked a few times before moving in a circular motion only to disappear.

Costa Adeje (Tenerife)(Spain), TENERIFE · Spain
Two lights moving in patterns, almost synchronised, only visible in the clouds not in the clear night sky. Lights move rapidly. Also seen on the following night but moving much slower. They did not appear to be beamed up from the ground below, no evidence of a beam.

Rockaway Beach, NY
I was watching Good Morning America this morning, at 7:02am central standard time Ginger Zee was delivering the weather. Beside her right shoulder on the left of the screen a light appeared to fly into view, it then gets brighter and flies off the left of the screen blinking. I rewound the program and took several videos of what I saw. I also saw a tweet from Good Morning America of the same segment and sure enough you can see the light. I know its not from my tv because I took several videos and you can witness it on the tweet. I am not saying what it is I would just like someone to look at the video and maybe investigate if you see anything interesting. (( Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)

I saw bright light(s) over the Chesapeake Bay. No sound; no visible craft. There was either more than one light or the light moved quickly from one area to another.
