Marin County, CA
A formation of 9 to 10 yellow gold lights were hovering right on the treeline and even right in the middle of the trees for a solid 15 minutes. Several houses were right up on this hillside on Mt. Tamalpais foothills where these objects were moving about in the trees. These objects were starlike and glowing and nobody in this neighborhood or in these houses is noticing this activity going on.Finally these lights departed one by one after about 15 minutes. I walked to a different location about 20 minutes later and witnessed 4 or 5 oblong stationary objects slightly toward the southeast that were more of a purple orangish greenish color. These objects were very low on the horizon just above treetop level. I watched these tall cylinder type objects for several minutes. This was the fifth Thursday night sighting in a row starting on the night after Christmas 12-26-19. There has been a lot of activity going on around here with virtually nobody paying attention especially with this drought in California.

Extremely slow moving cylinder shaped object in sky to the west just above the tree line. There was no noise, no vapor, no lights...just the craft. It moved at a crawl.

Observed red/orange object cylindrical in shape, moving in a slow arc from the south to the west. Object moving to slow to be a plane and made no noise. Approx distance from ground to object 2000 feet. Object seemed to flicker slightly but maintained a full bright color. Object finally disappeared to the west into low clouds.

On Thursday, January 9th at 9:56am I was taking my puppy out to do her business in my yard. I mentally asked to see a ufo. After asking I looked up and decided to take some pictures of the sky. I didn’t see anything with my naked eye, but after zooming in on the 4 pictures I took I saw something silver or white in the sky that was the shape of a cylinder on its side. I don’t see wings, or any other distinguishing shape or marks.

On Tuesday(1/7/2020) at 6:15PM CT, I was driving with my Daughter to Target (45mph),traveling North bound on Harlem Road (between Plantation Drive and Toll Road 99)It was dusk, so the sun had set, but still plenty of light to the west, but dark to the east of us. As I looked ahead, I noticed a long, greyish, cylindrical object traveling from due west to east. It appeared to be far way (maybe 10-15 miles or more), but the length seemed way to long for the distance away from us. The object was smoothly traveling the sky at a rapid pace with no lights at all. I quickly asked my daughter (9 years old) if she saw it...Yes, she said and then we marveled that there were no lights and was so big. We continued watching it as we turned east on West Airport Road, but it quickly vanished as it passed to the east, as it was already dark. I first saw the object at my 10 o'clock and lost sight of it about my 2 o'clock. (If the front of my car was 12 o'clock) The entire event ! was only around 30 seconds and I was not able to take any pictures. Just shocking 1/2 minute. When we arrived to Target, we sat in the parking lot and watched several planes in the night sky, both Commercial Airliners and Private planes… All had blinking lights and all were traveling at a snail's pace in comparison to what we just witnessed. When we got into the store, my daughter asked me if we were dreaming possibly. It certainly felt quite strange, as both of our brains could not process what we just saw. Since the event just happened last night, it is still very fresh. All details regarding time and place are100% accurate... What we saw and the description above is as good as I can do for the rapid nature of the event.Hopefully I can get feedback on what we may have seen... I will post my daughter's written report also and have her illustrate what she saw.

Fair Oaks Ranch, TX
Driving to San Antonio from Boerne in the dark early this morning, my wife and I both saw a "hair-pin of bright lights" -- perhaps 25 or 30 white lights lined up perfectly. My wife said, "It's like a diamond hair pin." I looked up and thought it not any aircraft I could imagine (e.g. a massive military plane perhaps). Does a B-52 have that many lights on its wings? Maybe so. It appeared to sit in one place in the sky for a short while, and the clear brightness of this row of lights reminded me of the comet Hale Bopp, which looked absolutely stationary in the night sky but was of course moving through space at an incredible speed. That's how I "took" the sight once I knew it was no ordinary airplane. In a way, it was quite beautiful and bright. That's what it reminded me of but it was like a string of vanity lights -- straight as an arrow. I first told me wife, "Maybe a meteor shower," which it might have been:! But the line of lights turned into a more vertical position to the ground, then instantly the lights got smaller (still lined up stiff as a pin), as if going away and great distance suddenly crossed; then it was gone. It was very strange and "other-worldly." Couldn't believe our eyes. What was it? I don't report things like this. This was the strangest and most interesting phenomenon I've ever seen in the sky.

I was driving on highway 1 and just when i looked up i saw a dome shaped cylinder soaring super fast through the sky but slow enough for me to get a good look, it was much faster than anything we’ve ever build fast than a jet and much faster than any plane

6 lights in a string spanning the sky leaning against the horizon at a 15 -20 degree angle. It appeared to be spinning. As one light would fade out another would appear at the other end -spinning. It was huge. I have no idea how to guess how huge. It was dark night but clear. All that could be seen were the lights.

Harrod, OH
I was driving down Phillips Rd outside of Harrod, Ohio, when I seen a large round/cylinder shaped aircraft that was just hovering over the field. It was darker in color. I drove quite a distance down the Rd slowly with my eye on it while I pulled over. As soon as I pulled over, it literally shot into the sky faster than anything human made. Other than telling my wife I haven't told anyone because I highly doubt anyone around here would believe me. I definitely have my eyes peeled everytime I'm out now. I wanna see more, now I'm obsessing over it. It consumes me

I was at home and I went to close a window as the temperature had dropped drastically. I then spotted several moving coloured lights. Two red, two white and three green lights on the side facing me. The object was no more than 100 foot high above the houses across the road from our house. Speed would be about 30 mph (at the most) Size: about the same as a single deck bus. It was shaped like a cylinder with rounded front and rear edges. It "glided" silently on its way in a southerly direction from my position.

Myself and a co-worker saw 2 shiny silver cylinder shaped objects flying close to each other moving east to west. There was no trail or sound at all. When trying to photograph could not capture image.

As i was coming home in the NW area of Gainesville.....I saw a HUGE object...either rectangle or cylinder...it was quite some distance away...in the evening sky...west...next to a normal star/planet. I was motionless...twinkling and VERY bright.Almost looked like it was oscillating. The size in comparison to the star was HUGE! My husband and I watched it for about 15 min....went inside ....came back out about 10 min later...and t was gone! NOWHERE to be found. The star had remained in the same position..but this object was gone. There were also 6-8 white lights all over the sky.Lots of helicopters flying around outside now.

At approximately 10:30 p.m. which ran to 11 03 which is the 2300 hour. Call was made to 911 Van Buren county dispatch to see if anyone else had noticed strange lights and occurrences within the atmosphere above the Van Buren county area towards the Lakeshore which occurred at about 5 to 8000 feet above sea level. Former military aviator with vast experience witness strange occurrencesand attempted to contact the FAA which was closed at 11 and the Kalamazoo international airport. The lights that were witnessed initially discovered by his spouse moving in an easterly direction coming from the West over the boundaries of Decatur township and Porter township in Lawton Michigan the lights that were seen where multiple in the sky as the sky was very clear and luminescent with multiple Stars however the lights that were seen we're altering and multi changing very fastwhat's led into the question the shape of the aircraft that were being witnessed it appeared that t! hey were cigar shaped at a distance long and cylindrical larger than an average aircraft without fixed wings there was one main light that was off in the distance that seemed to be stationary during the entire doing of this anomaly which added an ominous and unsettling feeling coming and going around it attempting to use cellular video cellular video the capture what was being witnessed in the sky this reporting individual made several attempts to adequately identify the unknown anomalies currently at the time of this writing the main lights in the distance that are alternating are still relevant and predominant the smaller lights in aircraft if that's what they can be called have been no longer visible as they were as they were. Upon retrieving a set of Minolta binoculars binoculars this writer adjusted this looking device to see clearly into the night sky upon doing so the first aircraft which was actually cylindrical in shape move quickly over the top of his location and! disappeared in the distance in a relatively short time withou! t any so und however a second aircraft came in the opposite direction a short time later and shook the home without really giving a sound the spouse of the writer was inside the home and clearly stated she heard something big come over the house. It is something that I have never seen in my lifetime very intrigued yet terrifying. Dogs in the distance can be heard barking continually yet when the call was placed to the 911 dispatch no other report has been given to them at that time as per the operator that took fielded the call. After hanging up immediately a call was made to the FAA but their office had been closed other than seeing the bright lights and as the aircraft or cylindrical object moved over the home which was obviously the size have a Navy destroyer or or frigate something that large was impossible to be explained as it went over...you could not hear the aircraft but you could feel the vibration of it almost as if it was a magnified presence which had some sort of cloaki! ng technology or you can see the framework the framework of The Craft and its lights clearly it looked as if it was interdimensional within itself and as it picked up speed it look to have deployed something really really wide coming out that could be only described as wing. The distance that you can see from this location is over 20 miles on a clear night the object disappeared within a matter of moments heading towards the Lakeshore beyond the coloma st.joe area... It is left this writer an experienced professional military man speechless and dumbfoundead having experienced many unique aircraft throughout a long military career nothing that I have seen could be described other than a flying massive grain silo. Which so difficult to describe the mechanics of looking inside of it as it went over the home it was utterly amazing. I'm refusing to go back outside to even look at it because I cannot believe it for myself and I witnessed it with my own eyes.

We were out star gazing during a full moon at 2:00 AM at Shell Reef and took a picture of the moon and horizon and in the picture it captured a cylindrical long shape with a separate light source than the moonlight with what appeared to be a circular vapor trail.

Two weeks ago, on a Tuesday, just after dark, I was nearing home in my PU. As I began to slow to turn into the driveway, an object crossed the road perpendicular to me, about 25 yards distant, traveling at least 100 MPH. It was light tan, cylindrical in shape, about 2’ long, 6”s in diameter, and had no visible appendages. It moved parallel to the ground, about 2’ above the pavement. It traveled up a driveway to my right front, and did not appear to reduce it’s speed, in spite of obstructions that were in it’s path. What was it? I have no idea; however, I did stumble across a History Channel show, about three days later, describing tubes that people are seeing, and that also show up on numerous photos and videos. They come in various sizes and lengths, some with what appear to be ripple type wings, often with various colorations, and speeds occasionally too fast for the eye to see. In fact, most of them are found on electronic media, after the fact. S ome have speculated that they are inter-dimensional in nature, capable of leaving our 3D reality at will. I am clueless; what was that thing?

As I was driving through my neighborhood around 11:45 I noticed a family looking up in the sky. They were shielding their eyes because of the sun! No clouds at all. I asked what they were looking at and they pointed up! To my amazement their was this cylindrical almost snake like object floating in the sky. It was very high in the sky and moving slowly. It looked black but as it would turn it would change to a silver color. We watched it until it slowly moved on, either disappearing or moved higher in the sky so that we could not see it. My neighbor took 5 pictures with his phone it did not show up in any of the photos. I am still in awe of it. I just thought it would be worth having a record of it. Thank you.

100 ft cylinder....800 to a thousand feet over the trees. Witnesses watched it move towards them and then turn easterly over US W 10.. at approximately same speed as a highway car.

A few months ago when jupiter was still in the early night sky before venus was again. The two were apperently going to run close together for a period of time. While observing the two for a couple months I watched amazed how jupiter kept getting bigger and bigger. I couldn't believe what i was seeing, my son was next to me. Finally it appeared directly over my front field where we burn wood debris. The front field has a sink hole. The craft had a light bar that would blow your mind very advanced. Bright enough to imitate a planet very wide and probably nearing 2 stories tall. It shined the sink hole. Why? Very very good question. After that, the craft saw us standing there and proceeded due east then north at the next dirt road lol no shit. No sound if any, no other lights after shinning the area Moral of the story. We know that they are hiding in plane sight. I recommend caution limiting "venus post and starlink". This really did happen and changed my perspective on alot of things. This is my only "other worldly" sighting. Good hunting

Was sitting on Mt. Hood with my buddy when we saw this shining bright object in the sky. It was bullet-shaped, long but not wide, and it looked high up but I couldn’t tell for sure. I thought it was a plane at first, but it didn’t seem to have any wings and there was no jet trail behind it. It curved through the sky smoothly, not pushed by the wind but going pretty fast, until it shrunk into a single spherical dot shining through the blue at us. Finally it was out of sight.

Cylinder shaped craft fat into horizon looked like it was entering from the sky, comet-like tail training behind it. Then seemed to float in air with sunset reflecting off of it
