My sister and I were walking home from her daycare and she said,"Look!" and pointed to the sky above a tree line to where we saw a very small grayish disk hovering really high up, I'd say about the height airliners fly. It was just hovering then it blinked almost to a different position what looked like a mile or two away from its original position and stayed for I'd say about 10 seconds then it blinked again and disappeared. I did not have my phone on me at the time which was a mistake I wish I hadn't made.

We are both professional people and know the difference between a plane and helicopter and these orange steady glowing objects were definitely something different.

I was laying in my bed looking through the sky light because I couldn’t sleep when this small craft suddenly appeared very high in the sky. It then proceeded to zoom around in a very erratic manner behaving like no airplane or other craft I have seen before and after awhile it just zoomed off incredibly fast. I also should mention that it was a very bright object

My wife and I both saw fairly large and bright 5 circular orange glowing objects within a span of 5 minutes moving fairly fast and moving south to north approx 1 minute apart each. We have video and pics of the objects over head on a mostly clear cold night with some clouds at approx 5,000 feet overhead.

These appear to be red dots in the sky. Approximately eight of them. Each of them had quite a distance in between them. One would go off and then shortly after another one and then another one in this continued for probably four minutes. They seem to be following each other. I had video of the last 2 and a half minutes. Because it was Christmas eve, I thought that perhaps someone was launching a type of hot air balloon or other type objects in the sky. But they were extremely high in the sky and then that didn't seem likely to me. I don't know if there were any other reports of these things in my area.

I also could not tell the distance but assume it was over the Sangres. The object headed south/south-east, and then somewhat vertically, at which point I lost sight of it.

I was walking my dog along the railroad track, two blocks east of where the tracks go over Como ave.. I saw points of light in the sky in the North moving N to S in a line. These lights formed a rough, not perfect, line. All moved uniformly and in sync WRT velocity. My suspicions were raised when I realized no sound was being emitted, contrary to my initial belief that they were military helicopters in formation. As the four of them passed overhead, the second to the vanguard diminished in brightness and in doing so began emitting a redder light until finally it disappeared. I then noticed more movement to the North and observed a fifth apparently catching up because of it's slightly higher rate of speed. At this point there were only four and all continued in the same vector at the same speed. After a short time, as with the first one, all began disappearing. Each light had a bright center and was enveloped in a fuzzy glow. I felt elated and surprised. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

On Saturday, December 19, 2015, between 3 and 4 pm, I witnessed a circle of clear, distinct yellow lights appear in the sky and then disappear. I would explain it as if a light switch had been turned on and then off in the sky. The shape was a perfect circle. I witnessed it from my vehicle, windows down. My two children were with me but did not see it, as it only appeared for a brief moment. We were pulling out of the Sanford Municipal Cemetery on 46A facing north - the object was in the northeastern sky. The sky was grey overcast yet clear with mild temperature. It was distinct. My immediate thought was that the sight was strange, - I had never seen something like that in the sky, but then I dismissed the lights as having been either a firework or blown transformer. I mentioned to my 9-yr-old son that I saw the lights and he asked me if it looked like a "ferris wheel" - which is exactly what it reminded me of - but it didn't have "spokes&qu! ot; in the center, just the perfect dots of light. He said he had read about ferris wheel UFO's - I dismissed his statement. I am submitting this report today (approx 2wks later) because I have yet to figure out what I saw. There were no fireworks sounds at the time - and the circle was perfect, not oval, slanted, etc. I had never seen anything like this before.

At 7:30 pm on the 17th, I was in the back yard of my home just outside of the LSU campus. I looked straight up, and rite away, saw 4 circle disks in formation moving due west. They had an orange red glow that was faint and covered each disk entirely. If you drew a circle around the formation, it was aprox. the size of the moon. As they moved, the formation changed with 2 crossing over to the other side of the other 2. There was plenty of normal air traffic in the distance, all with typical blinking lights. These did not blink. The low glow to them came from the entire disk looking almost organic. They were smooth moving and made no sound. Fading out a minute later again heading due west over the Mississippi river.

The object at times will move very subtle but most of the time will show up in the same place each time. We have requested that the source of the report share the photos with our Center, but have not seen them yet. We suspect a possible sighting of Sirius in the southeastern sky. PD

We spoke via telephone with the source of the report, and she assured us that the report is accurate, and that she would submit a second, and more detailed, report. We have not received the second report. We wonder whether the report is intended as a serious-minded description of a real event. PD

1 craft doing a square flight pattern. Then joined by a 2nd craft. Both craft stopped and hovered in place. Lights then shut off. Then 3rd craft appeared. Two craft left the 3rd craft then did a up and down (yo-yo) flight pattern. Then left vertical straight up direction. No sound, no blinking lights, flight speed unknown, however faster then any known aircraft here. Display flight of supersonic speeds with 90 degree turns, going to tree top level then back up to 30,000 to 40,000 with in 1 sec.. Displayed flight of a grid pattern, or making a grid outline of approximately of Tullahoma, TN, possibly Arnold A.F.B.,area. (Special note meteors aka shooting stars in the area as well but craft were faster then the meteors). Craft were the same type seen before in other events. No air traffic until craft left the area. No Commercial air traffic in this area seen before, Now possibly 4 Air craft or more heading to the same area loud and fast. Craft is now back behind the 4 air craft, now observing (hovering in place) light is on not blinking. IDK........ not militarily air craft not commercial. UFO yes , seen before by other in google photos. Will not appear on phone camera, to far, not enough light to be seen from the distance.

I thought they were too close to be helicopters (dangerous) and it was night. We were driving and lost sight of the three for a minute and when we stopped and got out of the car and we watched the remaining large orange ball which was stationary, then it began to rise up into the sky and quickly disappeared (out of sight). Heard a sound but didn't think it was from the remaining large orange ball. Very unusual. Could be 10-15 miles west of the longitude and latitude centre of the North American continent.

Circular object appeared at first to be a dim flare over the Ohio River over the Williamstown Bridge. It was fiery orange and moved South East at a fairly slow pace, maintaining the same height, with absolutely no sound. I watched until it disappeared from sight. I also have a clear video of the sighting. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
