Leeds, UT
I was traveling north on I-15 around 10pm when I saw what looked like a shooting star falling straight down from the sky, but it was brighter and had no tail. Then the circular light stopped suddenly right above the mountains north of Toquerville. It hovered for about a minute then started flashing red and blue lights as it got dimmer. I could see it was in front and lower the mountain ridge. As I got closer I lost sight because of some trees. When I did see it again it was moving a rapid pace flying north toward Cedar City. I observed it for a total of about ten minutes and finally lost sight because of the hills. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Twin Falls, ID
Just outside of Jackpot, Nevada, 2:15 a.m., so dark, heading north on highway 93 toward Twin Falls, Idaho. An extremely bright white light followed the drivers side of my truck for almost 20 minutes. Every 2 seconds the light would flash on, like a camera flash, then off again, then 2 seconds later flash again. Like a strobe light. When I sped up, it sped up - to 70 mph. When I slowed it slowed. It went off into the adjacent field and then came back again and continued to follow. Eventually it was right behind the truck canopy and followed for several minutes before it faded into the distance behind me and I could no longer see it.

I would like to know if anyone else has seen somthing similar... My step son and I were driving down route 64 in illinois. All of a sudden we saw a huge bright light coming at us at an unreal speed. We starred at it we had no time to react. In my head i was telling myself its a car in the wrong lane but somthing was telling me it wasnt. Then all of a sudden what felt like 2 mins which actually made me late to my destination by tens mins so i know it was longer. It flew straight at us and ten mins later I was still driving straight down 64 didn't crash but had no idea what we had been doing or where we were at for ten mins. There is ten mins unaccounted for! I know this for a fact!! Where did we go... how did i drive straight with no recelection of ten mins of my time. I had not drank any booze or took any drugs! Now when I look in the sky or drive at night it creeps me out! I didnt see any metal objects or little green men but I know what I did see and it wasn't are military! I cannot account for that time! And I still cant look at the sky at night for long periods of time. I didn't feel like anything hurt me at all. Oh and it was 100 percent completely quiet not one sound!

El Cajon, CA
I debated on whether or not my eyes were playing tricks on me and maybe it was a shooting star or meteor, but it seemed to be awfully close to be something like that. It looked as though it was near the clouds. Not to mention the way it went from barely moving like a plane to shooting off across the sky?

Encino, CA
Very high up probably around 50-60,000 feet, I and my wife saw a moving and then stationary flash white and red right hovering. It was not a plane because we saw other planes fly by it as it stopped to hover in one place.

Crofton, KY
We called 911 and they connected me to the ky state police but they just said it was due to storms and dismissed any paranormal activity.

Centerville, GA
Caught on video is a circular light that appears to spin at times and somewhat fades. It flys slowly across sky and then hovers over a tree and then hides behind tree and pops in view a couple times, looks too big to be a drone.

Tampa, FL
Estimate of distance offshore from Tampa – if it was in the atmosphere 30-40 miles out and 40,000 feet high – would have needed to be traveling multiple mach, example hyper-sonic, Mach 5-6 is guess. If it was exo-atmosphere, it would have needed to be significantly faster, as it crossed the sky at a 45 degree angle, going away from us, going from very visible to distant, to out of sight in 4-5 seconds. I am open to being contacted if investigation is made. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Hello Peter See below original summary, but I thought about something today that is interesting Last night, the reason we saw this object in the first place, is because we were focused on an area of the sky, that had a flickering light, I had just told my wife, that is a satellite, not a star, because of the evident flicker, those are the solar panels…. We were using an app on my android phone called “Skyview” – this app shows all object in the sky including satellites, spent rockets etc… The flickering light was stationary and Bright. The Phone app did not recognize it, I tried to load update to the app, to see if it would then identify. Then, we saw the fast moving object, directly from same general location. I stopped thinking about the flickering object, and am not certain if it remained… I believe it did. So I do not think the fast object was the original Flickering object… but small chance it was the same. I am just not certain now, as I did not connect the 2 objects last night… only today did I think about the location and the possibility that they were in some way connected. Also, you said last night that there was a similar report from Arkansas, and also something reported West of Spokane. I used Google Earth, and made a Pin Drop out West of Tampa over the Gulf. Another West of Spokane, and noted that the line traverses directly over Arkansas. (See attached) Let me know if you have any questions Also – What were the times the Arkansas and Spokane reported? I believe mine was very close to 2300 EST ((END ADDENDUM)) We spoke with the witness, and he sounded to us to be very serious, and sober-minded. We suspect that he is an excellent witness. PD

Fouke (5-10 miles south of), AR
Driving south on I-49 in southwestern Arkansas, between mile markers 20 and 10. I always watch sky on drive home from work. Using flight radar 24 app I watch for planes. This craft came in at low altitude (compared to commercial flights in area). It immediately caught my eye. I was moving around to make sure it wasn't a reflection on windshield. Craft came in with lights on. West to east. Came into my vision slowed down within 2-4 seconds. Then, went at high rate of speed, turned lights off and disappeared. The way it was moving was much different than a plane. It was effortless. We spoke with the witness, and he sounded to us to be very serious, and sober-minded. We suspect that he is an excellent witness. PD

Aloha, OR
12:56 a.m. in Aloha, Oregon, a small town outside of Beaverton and Portland. At the same time as a jet was flying by as I heard the jet engines passing overhead, I could see a small green light suddenly appear in the dark sky as I smoked a cigarette, and the speed of this green light was in the opposite direction of the sound as well as planes do not move this fast. This was not a meteorite or shooting star as it was moving as the crow flies in the distance straight ahead. I could tell that this was some sort of craft just by the way it was moving across the sky. However this green light was not the jetliner overhead which I heard at the same time. The plane in the sky was not military as it was not chasing the object it was just passing overhead as I live near an airport. Show it was a green light I did not hear any noise besides the jetliner above and it was moving faster than any plane I have ever seen in my life! I would say it was moving as fast as a shoo! ting star but this is no shooting star.

Mesa, AZ
Around 7:00pm we saw this bright light in the sky that looked like a miniature sun. The light shape and color changed several times. Also the movements were not consistence with known flying objects. The sighting lasted about 25 minutes. The shape got smaller and then looked like a star. I have videos and pictures that proof what I saw.

Desert Hot Springs, CA
It was between midnight and 1 am, this morning, Thursday, April 11, 2019. I was in the jacuzzi at a mineral springs spa in Desert Hot Springs, California. I noticed a very bright light bigger than the stars and it almost seemed to have 2 lights very close or maybe it was just blurred because it was very bright. My heart started to beat very fast when I thought I saw it had been coming closer. I wasn't imagining things.. it was coming closer. It didn't come close enough that I could see any clearer of what this was, hoping it was a drone. I was petrified and grabbed my robe and ran to my door. I waited about 20 minutes and went outside and it was back in the original area I first noticed it. I finally fell asleep and waited for the day to end so I could look in that spot and hopefully see the same light. It would be a star and I could relax. It was gone. It's no longer there. I've looked online, but I haven't seen any one else report it.

Converse, TX
I was playing soccer with my sister. It was getting dark so we decided to start heading home. But first i had to change my shoes. I sit down at a bench & i look up at the sky. As im looking I see a bright light. I didnt think much of it, like “oh its just a star”. Then it flashed & it literally like zoomed so fast & just vanished. Completely disappeared out of no where. As it was about to disappear, the speed was just fast.

Sylvan Lake (Canada), AB · Canada
After listening to your coast to coast report last night (April 18, 2019), I also seen a high-altitude white object in the sky. Just a dot really. It than did a curly que up wards and went out of sight. The sighting lasted only 3 seconds. I was at a political event at a ranch and waiting for the main speaker. I was focusing on an eagle or osprey very high up in the sky over the lake. That is the only reason I seen it. We were 1 mile from the south west edge of Sylvan Lake, Alberta, Canada. This happened at 7 pm, April 8, 2019.

Baker, CA
@4:15am Just North of Baker, CA, on Death Valley Rd/127 there was a green flash of light to the west (maybe near fort irwin? or closer to the mtn range). First a bright flash caught my eye, then as i look over i see the beam & another (light?) with a cylinder shaped green aura around it which appeared to be slowing down as it got closer to the ground, but it all happened fast. Data recieving? The cylinder shape light that appeared to be traveling down the beam is what threw me off.

Minneapolis, MN
After I was done recording the first bright light, I noticed a second brighter light. As you can see in the second video. Planes fly above us all the time and the that was most definitely not a plane.

Lee's Summit, MO
At 8:49 PM CST one UFO white sphere light tailing a jet, clearly could hear the engines of the jet and see the lights of the jet flashing. If anyone was on that jet, they may have seen the UFO. It was heading east bound towards Whiteman over Lee's Summit, MO. The UFO was clearly NOT flashing any lights while the jet was and appeared normal in the night sky. I reached into my cell pocket to grab my cell and my battery was dead... of course. It did not move like an airplane or any known aircraft. It stopped mid-air and hovered as I looked at it for a moment or two, and then shot off after the jet moments later. There was a lot of noise, which I assume were the jets flying over from Whiteman AF base which is near. I reported this that night to a Facebook group I belong too, so there is record of my date and report. I noticed that someone reported here for a light similar to my report in Harrisburg, MO, so I thought I would turn my report in, as well.

Las Vegas, NV
I was at a friend's house in northwest portion of Town. We were watching a movie outside in the backyard. While I was sitting a light caught my attention, I thought it was a plane, but the longer I looked at it, I realized it was just a solid white light moving slowly. It was moving towards the southeast. As it continued on its path it slowly disappeared as if it turned off the lights. When I looked at my friend she had noticed it also! She’s a flight attendant and for me I’m a student pilot, we noticed that it didn’t look like a plane or a drone. we’re not sure if it was a meteor, if it was it was the slowest one I’ve ever seen and it didn’t leave a trail like a shooting star. Hopefully some else caught this!!

Harrisburg, MO
I watched it for 10 seconds as it flew in a straight line. After that I noticed it moving side to side slowly, instead of a straight line. I ran inside to have my girlfriend take a look to make sure I wasn't crazy. She saw the light I was looking at and we both watched it slowly dim to a smaller light and disappear. It did not vanish behind a cloud instantly.

Mary Esther, FL
Distracted by thunderstorms, I pulled into the lot at the mall, that would be Santa Rosa Mall. It was approximately 7 PM when my attention was drawn to the south, towards a green light. The light, which appeared point size at first, and then more oblong, sped northbound, almost as if it were following the highway. Several minutes later there was a sound like thunder, a low rumble. Again, my attention was drawn toward the southern horizon. Only, it wasn’t thunder. Instead, four huge helicopters appeared to come in low off the beach and proceeded to fly inland at high speed. They flew from south to north, staggered one across from each other, and followed the same route as the green light had travelled. The helicopters were dark in color, not exactly black, but more of a glossy navy blue, and each bristled with refueling booms and radar domes. They appeared to be unmarked, and as they past east of me, in the vicinity of the highway, the beat of the rotor wash was enough so that I could feel it against my chest.

Los Angeles, CA
Three parallel whitish orange streaks of light are currently hanging over southwest Los Angeles. They have been there for at least fifteen minutes. They do not move. They are not contrails. They are not Kleig lights. They are not skywriting. My 10X binoculars cannot discern any aircraft at the head of the lights. Space laser test?

Waterville, ME
Noticed two lights at approximately 30000ft. one above the other red and white in the east sky at an elevation of approximately 20° above the horizon. The lights made small circles and then moved horizontally in a zigzag pattern and then at a slight angle of maybe 30° going towards the north east direction and then rested at a possible 40° elevation above the horizon.

Sandy Hook, CT
About 11 pm, my daughter let me know there was a red light in the woods around our house, which is surrounded by the Paugusett State Forest--3800 acres, no camping allowed. I figured it was a neighbor's house light through the woods. I later got up and checked it out. In the woods you could see a few lights--spread out over a few hundred yards. The one constant was the light in the middle- it did not disappear as the others would occasionally do. It was hard to determine the size of each light and the distance from me in the dark. It was also hard to definitively say how many lights, as they went on for a short bit, then after a minute (or few minutes) would disappear. Then another light, in another position, would light up. At one time you might see five lights, and then only two lights a minute later. The lights were predominantly white, but would change to red, and occasionally greenish. It was hard to detect much motion in the lights, as they were small (almost like looking at a star sized light, in the woods), and just moving your head gave it the appearance it was moving. But by readjusting your position in the window, you would see more lights that might have been hidden from your line of sight behind a tree. It was not a series of campfires, nor flashlights (my first thought). Not sure what it was, but it was there for a good two hours before I went to bed. A number of years back, I did report a huge white light on ground level in these same woods. That light was no more than 100 yards behind my house, in the winter (no foliage to obscure it). That light was steady, and I alone observed that for a few minutes before getting scared and going to bed to hide from it.
