Kennett Sqaure, PA
I was out having on my deck and I looked up in the sky saw nothing but stars. A few second later, out of the corner of my eye I see what I first thought was a plane. {I see a lot of planes living in the flight path of Philadelphia airport.} I looked for the blinking lights did not see any. Then it grew brighter and brighter, then it suddenly went dim, but still seeing it for a few more seconds as grew dimmer and dimmer. I have never seen what looked like whatever it was left the atmosphere. I was looking east and saw the object to the north east .

Bernville, PA
Four of us were relaxing on the patio when one person said, “Is that a fireball?” Everyone looked through the trees (to the south) to see an orange object in the sky, and at first we all thought it was a fireball. However, this object was moving much more slowly than any fireball we’ve ever seen. It was travelling towards the northwest. Everyone left their seats and moved to an area where it would be easier to see, and I was able to get some video with my cell phone camera. This object was moving about as fast as most aircraft, but it didn’t have the blinking lights that we always see on planes and helicopters; just a very orange glow that kept getting bigger, then smaller, over and over. We heard no noise coming from the object. Eventually the object moved out of our range of vision, and that was the end of the event for us.

Carmel, IN
It was the end of a long work day, when a co-worker and I were walking out to the parking lot, joking about how he was going to be picked up by a helicopter. As I looked to the Eastern sky I saw a large orange light hovering about 800 feet, or so, above the ground. I pointed at it and my co-worker, laughed, and said, "There it is now" As I watched the object for a few seconds, I saw another orange light fade into view near the original, so I start walking in their direction. While I'm walking, I see another appear the very same way the second did, then another, then another (5 in total). At this point, I've passed up my car and started jogging down 129th Street from Gray Road, towards Hazel Dell Road, where the lights seemed to be hovering. Just as I moved past the tree line and into a clearing, I saw the bright orange lights very clear as they all started to move east in unison as if they were many parts of a whole. They stayed on that course for another 10! seconds or so when they faded back into the dark night sky.

Palmyra, PA
Saw orangish-red orb moving slowly in northward direction. No sound with the sighting. Appeared to emit or drop something that was the same color of the orb. The orb started to dim before going completely dark.

Wichita Falls, TX
Leaving Wichita Falls on 82 and saw a large, bright green ball streak across the sky along my left side so incredibly fast it could not be anything I have knowledge of. Too fast to be a plane. Seemed so large that it had to be in our atmosphere and not a comet or shooting star. It left a green tail of light that was smokey in appearance as if it was on fire but it could have just been behind some clouds. Couldn't tell because it was too dark, but it had been cloudy that day. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Great Falls, MT
During a night shift at work, my partner and I witnessed a large glowing orb moving steadily in a straight line heading towards Great Falls from Vaughn. The craft was quite low (it appeared to be no higher than the distant hills) and was a bright orange type of color. It was flying approximately 50 meters above the hills, ruling out any aircraft or satellite. We observed it heading back towards the city until it disappeared entirely. The duration was under a minute (approximately 30-40 seconds). I asked my partner if he was seeing this light orb as well, and he confirmed that he was. Witness provides no contact information. PD

Willow Street, PA
July 19, 2014, 10 bright lights moving in formation through Lancaster County. Around 8:30 pm Saturday night these lights caught our attention moving just above the horizon looking northeast towards Gap, Pa from Willow Street, Pa. We first thought they were some type of military exercise since they started out flying in formation side by side. We first counted 3 distinct lights that were a Yellow/white in color moving in formation in a southwestern direction. Three of them moved into a triangle formation. Next to the triangle at this time 7 more lights appeared in groups of twos and threes and created a formation of 7 side by side. In the foreground, a plane flew by in front of these lights with a distinct flashing red light. You could distinctly tell these lights were not planes. The lights one by one began move upward and seemed to disappear one at a time, like when a plane flies into a cloud. My wife and I observed the lights for about twenty minutes before they disappeared. The perspective of how big or far away they were was difficult to judge because it was dark and beginning to get cloudy. From their distance we could not hear any sounds coming from them.

I took pictures and blew them up and the fire balls are shaped like saucers. I've been seeing them all week since then.

Nampa, ID
Sighting 1) July 4th, 2014, (22:45mt) At aprox 22:45 we were enjoying the neighborhood fireworks. When I noticed what looked like orange "street lamp colored" sparks, from an aerial "mortar type" firework drifting in the wind. It quickly became apparent they were actually flying objects. One flew by, followed by two in perfect formation. They were traveling in an Easterly direction, rather slowly. I turned and asked the other adults if they were seeing the same thing, all agreed they did. As minutes past it hit me we should be taking video. We were able to get a short video, but the "orbs" were too far away by that time, and it barely showed up. The orbs were visible for close to five minutes, then faded out one by one. They were very bright streetlight orange at first, then faded with distance. But also faded in and out randomly. They made zero noise, and had no other navigational type lights. Sighting 2) July 17th, 2014, (23:30mt) At aprox. 11:30pm while. driving South on Happy Valley Rd and Amity roundabout, noticed three bright very clear orange orbs over the S East horizon. The orbs were flying in perfectly spaced formation. As we came down the small hill, a fourth and fifth appeared in the formation. We followed them East Then South on Greenhurst/Black Cat about 5 miles. We then turned west on Kuna Rd and pulled to the shoulder as the Orbs very slowly descended towards ground level. I was able to shoot a small amount of video. We drove a few miles West then South, but lost the orbs among the yard lights in the distance. Driving home with windows down, we noticed a heavy burnt electrical smell in the air. We absolutely have no doubt both "sightings"were the same type of object. I have an above average knowledge of civil/mil aviation, and can say these were not aircraft, balloons, or lanterns. Nor were they afterburners or flares from local mil fighters. With no navigational lights, or noise associated with most aircraft. And though these appear similar to yard/street lights. Being brighter, well above the horizon, and moving! Can not be same.

Erie, PA
My husband and I were driving when off to our left we saw four round orange lights low in the sky. They were in a zig zag formation. The lights were steady but we couldn't tell how low they were. One light moved off a bit. I pulled over to look at them but they were gone. They were nowhere to be seen. I am a retired govenment worker and he is the owner of a machine shop.

West Haven, CT
The lights kept fading in and out, as they rearranged themselves into different triangular patterns in the sky. They would intensify in brightness, then fade to darkness before reappearing in the same area. One of the lights was much higher and farther west than the group doing formations. This phenomena occurred for over one hour. At approximately 22:15 a low flying military jet aircraft, with the delta wings clearly visible, flew northbound over the West Haven beach, made a sharp left turn (right over our heads) and traveled westbound toward the lights seen over Long Island, following the CT coastline. A few minutes after the jet had disappeared beyond our line of sight, two red lights appearing to be attached to a single projectile materialized out of the lone light that was higher than the group. At first it appeared to be an air-to-ground missile or a plane crashing into the sea. The object was traveling extremely quickly downwards and to the left in a straight line at a 45° angle from the lone light. It was traveling at a speed much higher than freefall speed, and in a trajectory that can not be explained by something falling. It disappeared when it reached our visible horizon. There were no sounds or visuals indicating any explosion or impact. The projectile appeared for only a few seconds. After witnessing the air-to-surface projectile, the orbs of light in the sky began to travel eastbound as a group and the lone light traveled in the opposite direction. The lights faded, disappeared, and did not reappear. We left the beach at 23:00.

Fort Wayne, IN
I was walking out of work to my work van and glanced up at a jet passing over in the distance and noticed two faint orange lights which appeared to be behind the jet and at a much higher altitude. (The jet could have been leaving the Fort Wayne Int’l airport). As I put on my polarized sunglasses the lights became much clearer and I noticed at total of five lights. Three were stacked vertically and two were side by side horizontally – which were a bit lower and to the left than the 3 vertical ones. They were moving slowly south/southeast. As they made their way south I saw another one to the North end of the sky line, and then one more that either became more noticeable or “appeared” to its left. It’s possible that they were Chinese lanterns but they seemed far too high and bright given the clear sky and full daylight. Also, I checked the wind direction at Intellicast.com under their local weather report and the timestamp at 08:54 showed the wind moving 6mph NNW. My cell phone does not take great pictures, so I pulled my digital cam out of my book bag but the battery was exhausted go figure.

North Myrtle Beach, SC
3rd incident: Observed six orange colored spherical shaped objects moving along the beach above the water. Occurred over a ten or fifteen minute period with one, then two and finally three objects being visible at a single time. They all appeared to originate from near the water line about a half mile or so down the beach. They would climb while slowly moving and seemed to pulsate. I took coordinates for two of them as follows: Object 1 - Heading 218° (SW) @ 38° above the horizon Object 2 - Heading 241° (WSW) @ 61° above the horizon.

Object was sighted about 10 degrees in front of the hotels moving parallel with the strip Appeared to be at about 75-100 feet above the buildings. I was able to get a good view through binoculars before the object disappeared. I moved to street level to try to locate the object as it came across the buildings but it never reappeared. Duration: 2 minutes 2nd incident: I immediately returned to the 4th floor balcony and immediately spotted 4 more of the same type objects to the north about a half mile moving north to south along the same trajectory as the original object. An additional 5th object appeared in line with the other four and they moved in sync that gave the feeling or illusion of a single large object. They began to intermittently blink in and out of view and finally all vanished. Duration: 5 minutes

Morgan Hill, CA
It was a normal, fairly warm night. My mother had just gone to bed and i was outside in my front yard, listening to some music coming from my room, waiting for some of my friends to arrive. I was looking up at the stars as i tend to do to clear my head, making up constellations and watching for "shooting stars", when all of a sudden i saw what appeared to be a star moving! There was no trail of light, there were no flashing lights like there are on planes, it just looked like a star got bored and went for a walk across the sky! It was going faster than any normal cargo plane I've seen at night, but slow enough for my eyes to easily keep up with it. It was flying in a straight line, from left to right, no arc at all. I continued to watch it until it suddenly vanished. It didn't speed up or flash away, it just disappeared like a magic trick. I even looked around to see if i could find any other planes in the sky, and when i did, the obvious plane was moving considerably slower than the object and you could see the flashing lights clearly. I know it was not a plane, and i know it was not a "shooting star". I honestly have no idea what exactly I was looking at, but I do believe it was a UFO.

Denver, CO
I was in my backyard, when I took a quick glance at the sky and noticed there were 15 to 25 light orbs in the sky. These orbs were white/blue and were flying together in a weird pattern. I stopped and stared at them for about 20 seconds because I had never seen anything like that before. I then ran inside my home to let my brother, cousin and mom know what I was seeing and we quickly ran outside to our backyard to see what was going on. These light orbs were flying toward Northeast Denver and were very silent. As they were heading Northeast, I noticed another orb light flying at a higher rate of speed and caught up to the rest of the orbs. We continued observing them as they flew through the clouds. We noticed that three of them stopped and we lost site rest of the rest. These three orbs were stationary for about 5-10 minutes and then disappeared.

Cadiz, KY
In the eastern sky, 3 stationary blinking lights from white to red, 5 times faster than the lightening bugs. No sound. One accelerates upward, disappears. The other two exhibit drastic turns and moves for a moment and then start downward at a fast clip. They stay perfectly aligned side-by-side at a 45 degree angle all thru this, making me think they were a larger craft with 2 sets of lights. When they reach the level of the house top across the road, one splits off and soars upward and disappears. The other hovers about 20 ft above the street and I can see that it is a ball-shaped craft. It stays in place with the white and red lights alternating, as I watch it for almost 45 seconds and then it soars upward towards its original place in the eastern sky, then disappears. Not the first time I've seen them in that exact place, and there is usually a variety of sizes and shapes there.

Clementon, NJ
I was at a lake near my house in new jersey, near Al capon's summer home (that is my understanding). I was there for 3 hours, from 4:30 AM to 7:45 AM to get pictures of a sunrise. Not long before I was ready to leave the area and go home, I saw a small silver sphere fly out of a cloud, it moved up then left very quickly before it shot upward out of my view. I don't know if it was a UFO as many would or would not call it, but never the less it was very strange. I've seen more things like it before on camping trips but had always brushed it off as a lack of sleep. Yet i had gotten a full nights rest before going out to the lake in question. (there was a air liner flying ahead of it just seconds before i had seen said sphere). Witness indicates that the date is approximate. PD

Acworth, GA
I was out smoking a cigarette before bed. I was looking up ar the sky seeing flashes from fire flies and noticed a few stars. About half way through my smoke, I noticed the star has moved from where I was sitting from directly above a tree to the right. I continued to watch this "star" move from east to west. It was a bright brilliant white circle/orb. It moved from a complete stationary position to moving slower than a plane a high altitude. It moved across the sky for about 25 seconds before vanishing into a clear sky. This is the third time I have seen this. Im always looking to the sky and use my Mobile Observatory by Wolfgang Zima (Kreapp) and I'm very familiar with astronomical events. I can say this was NOT a plane, ISS, a meteor or an asteroid. I've seen one with my girl friend that pulsed like magnesium burning in the sky moving from east to west also but this one slowed down and shot off like a laser at a 90° angle and disappeared. I'm curious to see if anyone else in north Georgia has seen these brilliant white orbs treating the sky like a playground. I believe hands down without a doubt that physics does not lie and what I have seen are truly something from the outskirts of our solar system, a UFO.
