Canastota, NY
Looking out of my back window I saw one silvery disc like object floating above my back field, I then went outside to get a better look I saw that it seemed to be floating forward in a straight line eastward with absolutely no sound, the ambient noise even seemed to be gone. I then tried to take a video and took a picture instead, when I switched to video and got the object back in frame it then disappeared entirely. I am a 42 year old Marine Corps veteran.

Video 1 10/11/23 03:27pm: The video here is a sighting of 1 ship, the other left 2 minutes before (have video too). If you watch this video, at the 10/11 second frame, you will see it cloaking into a bubble. Because it is a sunny day and cold, the destoration shows up in the camera. Throughout the video, you will capture a clear ball, moving erratically. At 21/22 seconds the craft reforms and then recloaks and moves around the video. its best to do a frame per frame view. I make the mention of a plane at the end, but that sound is behind me. Its not a plane. Video captures everything. Video 2 10/11/23 03:25pm: This is the ship that left before video 1 taken. It was 2 minutes earlier, so this one shows a craft at high speed shooting off. Video 3 12/1/23 03/33/pm: The best video, shows detail of one craft, cloaking, moving back and forth erratically, and doing things not capable by us. *** Everything filmed is in the 3pm timeline. Not sure it means anything. Alos best to do a frame by frame analysis is you have the time. It moves so fast, you will miss it. [NUFORC annotation: Aircraft - Possible]

Sacramento, CA
I saw that it was hanging in the sky for a second, while I was on the freeway, it was like disk shape with the body having light and it was moving away from me faster and faster disappearing in the clouds.

BOURNEMOUTH, BOURNEMO · United Kingdom
We saw one of these over Bournemouth flying from west to east towards the direction of Hurn airport, following the course of the river Stour. First sighted them over near Longham Bridge. Tried to take a photo but couldn't zoom in enough. It looked and flew exactly like this, like a doughnut shape tumbling end over end. No fans, no propellor, no sound or lights or exhaust. Thought it was a balloon to start with but there was no string and was flatter than what a balloon would be. It wasn't flying erratically, it moved as if it was being powered. There was no wind either. Never seen anything like it before, it is interesting to see others have seen such phenomena in other parts of the UK and the world! Not saying its aliens or anything but definitely "unidentified"!

Fort Wayne, IN
I was traveling South on LIma Rd and I saw a shiny disc shaped craft that was traveling in the same direction as I was. The sun was hitting it, so that is why it was shiny. I was watching it, and all of a sudden it made a sharp right turn, almost like it was going into a cloud. I continued to watch it, but it never came out the other side. I would say it was the size of a bus and was about 500 yards away.

Powell Butte, OR
Me and 5 other people saw a disk that looked like a light craft. It was white blue and green. It was in the sky by itself. It sat there for maybe 3 seconds then it got bigger as it moved closer to the house. Then it took off and never came back. We live out in the middle of nowhere where the night sky has no city lights. When we all saw it we couldn’t believe what we were seeing. It looked like a light disk and it got bigger and smaller very quick and then was gone but as it took off you saw it get smaller until it disappeared. It happened very quick.

Bridgeport, IL
About 8:00 pm at night after, picking up pizza for dinner, my daughter in law was driving west on highway 250 towards Sumner, Illinois from Bridgeport , Illinois. As she approached the turn off for Hopewell cemetery she noticed unusually bright lights in the field to her right. Slowing down to get a better view of the phenomenon, she was shocked and shaken when she realized that it was a very large disk shaped object 75-150 feet in diameter slowly moving in a circular pattern around the north end of the open field. The object had a dark surface and was ringed by multicolored lights around the periphery of said object. The disk-like shape was only discernible because of the lights around the outer edge. The object was moving just above the tree-line. The lights around the edge were moving in a fixed pattern around the object. She described the motion of the lights as the motion of chasing lights on a theater or advertising marquee. Until the moment of her sighting she was a hardcore skeptic. When she called us to relate her sighting, she was very shaken and displayed a reaction of someone who has just had their perception of reality destroyed. She slowed down observed the object intently enough that she totally forgot to control the car she was driving. She crossed the centerline and ran off the shoulder of the road before regaining control. According to her, the near accident snapped her back to her senses and in a panic she sped away. It was only when she reached the safety of her own home that she realized that she was so shaken by the experience that she completely forgot to take pictures.

Kansas City, MO
Me and a guy from work were putting lighting in on the 2nd floor of the building by some windows and the guy I was working with said “ what the hell is that shining out the window a drone?” We both then started watching it and noticed it was moving too fast to be a plane or a drone as it got closer then it just vanished. We looked around for it about 15-20 minutes but could no longer find or see it.

Taking dog out and looking up at the sky I saw the object and wrote down the time when I got inside!

Bowling Green, KY
There were more than 3 witnesses to this sighting. 3 were in my car. My 2 children and I were on I65S going home. We passed the Smiths Grove exit and saw something coming down from the atmosphere falling it seemed and we saw another in tow falling down as well. We continued down the interstate. I told my kids that they were probably a satellite that the government claims falls sometimes. When we got a good view I could see that they had just stopped in the air. Just hanging out. We got to an open area and we could see them very well. They were the classic metallic color, round with a dome top and in the air at an angle so I could see them very well. Then we saw a jet flying toward them quickly and idk what happened after that. We continued on our way home. I tried to take pictures but they were not the best. The objects look white in the pictures

Delano, MN
The object was suspicious it was a gray disk with a blue oval on top kind of in the gray oval looking like a ufo, I wasn’t sure to be exact what it was till we researched it and found this page, it was moving very slow then sped up and started blinking before disappearing I think it flew back into the sky leaving super faint blue shadows, It happened very quickly and are phones weren’t allowing us to record. We were all very anxious so that being might be why our dog was acting weird but she stood there whining and staring at the object, she wouldn’t listen to her name being called or even look at us for a good 5 minutes after whatever this object deems to be.

Gettysburg, PA
On the weekend of September 30- Oct 1 my wife ((deleted)) and I spent the weekend in historic Gettysburg, Pa, celebrating our 38th wedding anniversary. On the evening of September 30th 2023, at around 9 pm we were taking a guided walking ghost tour of the town. The tour guide had us stop at a few locations while he told his stories. On the last stop, the guide was standing on a side street and our group was either sitting or standing listening to him. My wife was sitting down on the curb and looking up at the guide who was doing his thing. She became distracted by a blinking object behind him in the sky- which was moving at a very fast rate of speed. She said it zigzagged- back and forth- and then pulsed left/ right, left/ right- before it moved across the sky at a constant speed. That was the part I caught very briefly on video from my I phone. I lost it in the tree cover in the parking lot after a few seconds. I also have 2 photos which I took before the video. It is difficult to see the object on the still shots unless you blow it up. It is near the center in both photos. When increased in size, it appears to be somewhat disc shaped with a reddish haze around it. There are a couple of other strange areas on the photos which may have something to do with the camera on my phone. We don't recall seeing those with our eyes, but they are interesting. If you increase the size of the still shots you can see lines under the lower clouds which do not appear to be clouds. Also a couple of bike handlebar( for lack of a better description) shaped objects higher up in the one photo. There's probably a logical explanation for all of this, but we don't know what that is. We thought maybe the blinking object was a drone, but after talking to one of our sons- who happens to be an aerospace engineer- he said they don’t move like what we described to him. The weird thing was that no one else in our group noticed this. We also looked online to see if anything was posted about this in that area, but came up with nothing. We are looking forward to have someone give us their expert opinion on this! Thank you

Rice, VA
I was walking outside to go and drop something off on a neighbor's porch. When I look up to the sky and see what appears to be a shooting star. At this point I am super excited because I've never seen one before in my life, so of course I'm staring and watching it and walking up closer to try and get a better view. Sadly I did not have my phone in my pocket for the one freaking time in my life and I'm so sad and disappointed in myself, that'll never happen again.! But as I'm walking up I realized what I believe to be a shooting star is not moving and as I get closer I can clearly see it is lights in the sky, there's a light and then there's space in between the light and then there's another light and then there's space in between the light and so on and so forth. It begins to look like a disc, or a bended object in the sky. As I'm watching it's slowly begins to turn and rotate in a circle clockwise. It must have spun in a circle and rotated for a solid 30 seconds in front of me before slowly becoming invisible right before my eyes and slowly began to disappear in front of me. It is legitimately the most real and scariest and exciting experience I've ever had in my entire life. I was so excited and so scared. At the same time I could have pissed my own pants.

No sound, this is not an airplane, helicopter, drone or satellite. I first noticed it Wednesday night at 11, and was up until 6:30 to watch. Tonight was the 4th night in a row it’s been above my house in the sky. I know what I saw. I have photos and videos taken each night. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Possible]

I was testing out my new iPhone camera on my way home from college, when I noticed a strange looking white light, I then noticed it moving really fast, it dashed in an instant, still in view though. I then noticed it change colours to green, I zoomed and could immediately tell it was a flying object of some sort and not just a light. Also in one of the pictures you can actually see 2 crafts which I did not realize at first and instead only focused on one craft.

Probable conventionalEstes Park, CO
Took a photo of the church at Camp Malo, Colorado. Later, while looking at my photos, I noticed something strange and unusual in the sky above the church cross that I can't identify. I spent 30 years in the Navy and saw a lot of very interesting things flying into and out of the ocean and across the sky. I also worked a lot with helicopters and jets and this doesn't appear to be either. I didn't see this object when I was taking the photo, and it doesn't appear in any of the other photos of the church that I took. When I zoomed in to get a closer look, it almost looks disk shaped with a rectangular light on top. [NUFORC annotation: Bird - Probable]

Centralia, IL
Driving into Centralia on US-51 from Irvington, I looked to my left (west) and saw lights in a slight diagonal curved row. We pulled over on the side of the road (near Country Bobs) and watched as the seemingly stagnant object floated, then rotated slightly, and started to shut lights off shut off before it disappeared in a blink of an eye. While watching it, you could see a faint outline of a craft in the dark sky. This all happened within seconds. We did not hear any unusual sounds. The area that this happened in is mostly farmland with scattered houses.

Naperville, IL
We were looking up at the sky when we noticed a black disc-like object slowly moving through the sky, but was moving in a straight line at first. Then, it quickly shot to the side, then shot to the other side. Not sure if this is a drone capability, but it wasn't like anything we've ever seen.

The craft were stationary as I watched a small plane pass them headed to the airport - they hung in the air in a non- equilateral formation of a triangle- I pulled over to take a picture but by the time I got the car pulled over and turned back to look they were gone. I am a professional who was headed to work a little after 8 am. I have never had an experience like this before - so startling as it was in bright morning light- and I felt I saw them clearly

hampton, NH
Im a retired police detective who served in Afghanistan as a military contractor. I'm seventy years old. In good health non drinker or drug person. At 7:17, I was sitting on my front porch smoking a cigar. The moon was to my right. To the left of the moon was clear, and I could see no clouds. As I looked up to the sky to the left of the moon. Three saucer-like or balls looking orange then appeared in my vision. There was a shimmer hard to detect the shape, plus I'm seventy. They had what appeared to be rotating white-red-orange lights. To the right of me, looking up from the stairs left of the moon coming into the moonlight, I checked my phone. They were going due north. I would estimate ten thousand feet. The first three craft were in delta formation Since Pease Air force base is several miles from my house, I thought they may be planes in formation I have seen that before. I didn't think much of it. Seconds later, the original three were followed by at least 20. following loosely put with purpose. Not floating in a straight line same path North. At least thirty or forty more after that. Now I said WTF? Then more were coming. I have been in hot zones in the past I didn't want my imagination to run away, But I said to myself this is an armada there going to take over Pease. They were not moving at a high rate of speed. I sound like a nut, but I actually thought it was an invasion. I feel like a fool thinking of it. This wasn't a drone, flares, Elon's toys or Jupitor. Im not that stupid I was trained extensively to be an observer. I also knew this may be significant. I told myself to pay attention. They had a purpose going north. I ran to my neighbor's house across the street. To help me verify I was on his ring photo thing. He wasn't home. I went back in the street, praying someone was seeing this and not just me. Then, out of nowhere, Im not going to say wormhole from nothing came something like a white maggot it was a length of light it popped out of nowhere, gyrating, squiggling, it went through the lights that were moving north. It dipped behind my vision was blocked by a tree. Then this made me say Woah! In the moonlight, I could see clearly. Rising from below the tree was a delta shape, something in had to be turned sideways like I was watching a black triangle, much lower than the lights, I saw the outline distinctly. I have no proof, but I think that white squiggly thing that went behind the top of the tree was the Delta Craft I'm calling it. It was black I could only see the silhouette as it flew in front of the moon. No light whatsoever. With the coming and going of the airport I thought for a minute it could be dangerous. It traveled on the same path. I could only estimate, but it was the size of a trailer truck. Much lower in altitude. Then nothing.I ran into the house thinking it would be all over the news, but nothing. My wife and I checked everything, even the local papers and such, but nothing. I know what I saw I have the pictures of the Armada and the white thing, for lack of a better word. Nothing of the delta craft sorry my phone died. Well, that's it.I told no one, but my neighbor saw the photo. I do find it strange not another person saw it. All you had to be doing was looking at the moon.

Nashville, TN
I was looking at clouds when I noticed a stationary object in the Western sky. It was dull metallic in color and made no sound. It was disk shaped with the exception of a half sphere attached to the bottom of the object. I'm guessing that it was 500 to 800ft in altitude. I took a picture using my cellphone camera. After I took the picture I checked it and when I looked at the sky again the object was gone. The entire sighting lasted about 25 seconds.

I'm seeing a mixture of lights that seem to follow a circular pattern around like red and green beaconing lights with white lights and it just moved probably a good few feet or so from previous location.

Tucson, AZ
While driving up a hill and approaching our driveway, I noticed an object flying low over the neighborhood houses. As it came closer, I noticed that it was not a plane nor a helicopter and it was not flying south towards the Tucson airport - which is the usual flight route for planes. Instead it was flying over the back of our house and going east towards Mount Lemmon. Immediately, I knew that it was unusual and I asked my husband to look at it and tell me what it was. He told me that it was a UFO. When I parked the car in the garage - the silvery looking disc/object disappeared from view. We were both in shock. This happened on Friday afternoon at about 3:30 P.M. September 15, 2023 in Tucson, Arizona.
