Greenwich, CT
My friend & I were walking our 3 dogs in a baseball field next to the Western Junior High School in Greenwich, Ct. I often like to look at star formations and on this particular night when I looked upwards I saw a glowing, bright red-orange sphere. My friend noticed it too. My friend thought it looked more orange-red (minor matter). The sphere was approximately 90' in the air from the top of the hill where we were waking and about 100' away. The sphere moved very slowly across the sky in a straight line. It proceeded to move behind a large tree that was on the hill and I was curious to keep the thing in my view for as long as possible. When I ran to the other side of the tree the object vanished into thin air. Poof! Gone! To have seen it so clearly from where we were standing I estimated it to be about 2.5' to 3' around. It made no sound. It was not a light projection - it was a solid glowing object. We had 3 dogs with us and they made no indication of having seen or felt anything untoward. There were no other people around - no children, no adults it was a totally clear and quiet evening. I was NEVER a believer in all the UFO stories I heard people talking about, however, I still remain a little unsettled about this sighting.

Brownsville, PA
While traveling toward Brownsville, Pa, my son, I, and a lot of other drivers witnessed 8-10 Orange Orbs Floating above Turnpike 43. These things were no higher than 50 feet above the trees. They Held steady and did not move around. It was nearing dusk when we witnessed them and could not stop on the turnpike. When we reached the next exit we turned around and in that time they disappeared. There were no visible wires, nor did they move like a drone or some r/c.

For a period of 10 minutes we saw 3 yellow/orange spheres of light in different locations...then saw 1 at a time appear at a time for several minutes after at different times.

Saw a bright orange ball several miles out (about the size of a star), just over the tree line. I wouldn't have given it much thought it except that it was unusually bright -- a very warm orange. Then I noticed it was rising. After a minute of rising it started to drift to my left what might've been several hundred feet (about an inch from my perspective on the ground). I was hoping it would dart around but its movement was slow, almost lethargic, albeit not like any aircraft I've seen. After what looked like some more swaying about it started to drift up again (about an inch every 5 seconds) before fading out behind a storm cloud. I've never seen a UFO before. I was on my front steps having an early morning cigarette. The sky was a bleak grey patched with left over storm clouds. I did a few minutes of reading online about Chinese lanterns immediately after seeing the orb and almost didn't write this report. Then I realized that we just had a decent storm last night, with very strong lightning that lasted until midnight. Any Chinese lanterns anyone might've lit for the 4th of July had to have been very durable, or very lucky to survive last night's storm.

Norwalk, OH
I was sitting on my back porch, using my tablet, when I saw a single glowing (red) orb cross the sky, traveling from the north west heading south east. I have seen red orbs like this once before, and suspected it might be a ufo, but was unprepared the first time. When the first orb appeared, I watched it dumbfounded for a minute, to see the same object again, then got my wits and went into the house to get my digital camera. I only caught a smidgen of the first object. Then a few minutes later, TWO identical orbs, both glowing red, followed the EXACT same flight path, in the EXACT same direction, at the EXACT same speed. I got the two in formation recorded, only the first few seconds of it were in focus but they are discerable. I didn't have the foresight to have the camera on manual focus and as I zoomed in, it drifted out of focus. Not long after the pair of orbs vanished, a FOURTH came into view, once again, EXACT same flight path as the previous 3. I have a much better video of the last orb. In it, I have the entire flight, from where it first became visible, to when it went beyond where I could see. I have both close zoom and I also pulled back to include the moon in the shot, to provide scale for distance and speed. All four objects were totally silent, I heard no aircraft sounds whatsoever, saw no blinking marker lights, only the red glow. I believe because of location and time, as well as other physical characteristics of the event, that I was not seeing sunlight reflecting from airplanes. The light was constant and consistend for the entire event, never waxing or waning, never changing in intensity as a reflection would. Also, these objects should have been flying through the shadow of the earth, as shown given the time and lunar illumination.

North Bend, OR
On 7-13-2014 at around 9:30 pm, I was driving north on highway 101 on the Oregon coast, just outside of North Bend, almost to the area known as Houser. I saw a small but very bright orange sphere shaped light about a half mile north of my location. I kept my eye on it trying to figure out exactly what it was. As I approached it I realized that it was following HWY 101 about 200 feet above moving south. I passed another car that looked to be recording the light. I found the first safe place to pull over and managed to get a few seconds of video with my phone as it passed over me then disappeared in the fog.

La Porte, IN
Slow moving white object seen moving West to East. Object appeared to be orb shaped but not certain because of its height in the sky. Object was very high in the sky. I had to look closely to follow it. Object emitted no lights. Because of its height in the sky, I could hear no sounds if any.

My wife and I were driving south on interstate 71. we saw a bright orange sphere shoot from the ground straight up and into the sky and disappear into the atmosphere. It was so fast. Nothing of this world could have went as fast as it did. Makes me nervous to report this because the littl greys took me from my room when i was ten in Yellow Springs, Ohio.

There were two orange-red bright circular orbs, floating silently and fairly fast across the sky below cloud level for about 3 minutes until they flickered out and disappeared in seconds. They appeared above the screen at a drive in movie, so I know for sure three of us saw them but I'm not sure about all the other people there; however they were very obvious and almost impossible to miss due to the fact they were above the screen.

We saw a sphere, orange, traveling at great speeds, from south to east, and disappearing in the sky....last night (July 12, 2014 at 23:00hr) We saw the same thing, but 5 sphere bright orange traveling from south and turning to east and appearing to be on the same flight path.... We were both outside in our backyard when we observed the phenomena.....we knew the object was the same type we saw a year ago....no doubt...every sphere appeared one at a time one after each other (not all together).... we both asked each other what we were seeing and no doubt we were seeing the same thing..... bright orange ball in the sky traveling at immense speed for the size and distance..... very amazing.

Walked outside around 10:00 p.m. to water plants and saw a bright ball in the sky the color of fire travelling west. It did not make any sound although it seemed fairly close. The first ball faded away and another came into view at the same starting point, travelled the same path and faded away in the same spot. And then a third and then a fourth. Exact same thing. None of them made a sound. Recorded two on my old digital camera using video. Video was not good, but shows color.

Round Rock, TX
While loading my groceries into the back of my SUV tonight at approximately 9:30pm I looked up in the sky to see two extremely bright white lights, one behind the other, traveling very low and very, very fast across the sky. Then they both just disappeared. At first I thought it might be a plane, the lights being one on the wing and the other on the tail, but that got dismissed based on the speed and height at which they were both traveling. Much too low to be an aircraft. Then it struck me that neither one made any noise at all despite how low and fast they went. Next thing I knew they disappeared altogether. I may have thought I was crazy, but I looked over and the old man loading his groceries next to me turned white, jaw dropped and he quickly got into his car and sped away. He looked terrified.

Leander, TX
DATE/TIME: July 12, 2014. Between 21:00-21:30 LOCATION: Leander, Texas. (RM.1431 between Trails End Road & Anderson Mill Road) SKY CONDITION: Clear Skies. Good Visibility. It was not yet dark and the Sky was fairly well Lit. The "SUPER" MOON was above the horizon but low in the sky. The Sun was gone from view, but its light still present. It was not yet dark and MY POSITION: Driving East on RM 1431. Traveling ~55mph. This is a route I commonly take 4-5x per week. DESCRIPTION OF SIGHTING: Driving east on RM.1431, the SuperMoon was directly ahead of me and I was admiring the incredible view. Suddenly, this ROUND, WHITE BALL of LIGHT came streaking out of the Southern Sky to the North at an Altitude of approx. 700'-900' at a Distance of ~100'-150' in front of my vehicle. This BALL OF WHITE LIGHT (which I will call an ORB) moved so fast, I feared a plane was about to crash, but I could tell it was NOT a plane. No plane moves at this kind of speed. The ORB moved more like a shooting star, only its path was horizontal to Earth and gravity didn't seem to be affecting the movement of this ORB. As it streaked North, I had to look out my left window to follow it and as I looked North I expected to see this ORB already beyond the Northern Horizon. What I saw next clearly confirmed this was NO Shooting Star! As the ORB passed over me streaking North, I followed it by turning my head to look out my driver's side window. At the speed the ORB was traveling, I expected by the time I reacted and turned my head left that it would have been well beyond the Northern horizon. Once I located the actual position of the ORB, I was astonished to see that it had not shot out of view, but had stopped accelerating just after it crossed over RM.1431. But that's not all.....The Hi-Speed, Low Altitude ORB I witnessed had now become 2 ORBs and were in a 'wild dance' in the sky about 100'-150' to the north of RM.1431. As if the 2 ORBs were putting on a show for me, the lights went into a highly energetic, highly reactive state of movement that looked like a couple of Tasmanian Devils do the Tango. The 2 ORBs spun around each other, twisted, tied and twirled in a relatively tight area with one another for about 2 seconds and disappeared. I did not see how the 1 ORB became 2 ORBs. It could have split into 2, or perhaps paired up with another ORB not in my awareness... This is the best description I can offer of what I witnessed. SIDE NOTES: One final statement...I am a musician. For about 30 mins prior to my ORB sighting, I was trying to perfect the cadence of each syllable so that every word fit the music just right. I played my recording over & over singing these lyrics..... It's by Intelligent Design We're on this Rock Spinning through Space Spinning through Time Where Material overlaps The Paranormal that overlaps With the Divine That's what we find This is a song about our Universe and how this Physical world overlaps with the Paranormal world, which also overlaps with God's Infinite Divinity. We are connected in ways unseen to these other dimensions. I hope this doesn't sound crazy, but it's the truth....I heard on Coast to Coast AM that some people have invited ETs into their awareness and In the last week or two, I had actually made a few conscious requests for contact to see if anything would happen. Today it did.

Saw a white light heading South in the Eastern sky. It pulsed bright and then faded away rather quickly. Possible flare from Iridium satellite?? PD

It was about midnight and I wanted to see the supermoon at its fullest and needed to water my garden, I went to turn on the outside water and something felt a little eerie, I looked up and to the North and I saw what I describe as a twinkle like the end a meteror but as soon as I focused on it, it went black. I didn't feel excited or happy, it made me feel scared. I watered my plants in a hurry and still felt uneasy about it. It was probably less than 50 yards above me.

A bright light flying towards the mound center, close to the ground, moving faster than anything that I've ever seen in the sky before. Then it disappeared in mid air. It wasn't making any noise. It was kind of an ovalish light orb thing.

My 60 yr old sister, my 78 yr old mother and myself 51 yrs old, we're sitting in my backyard in town facing south/west. In the sky we saw a sphere that was shiny with a black band around it. It appeared to be as if it were falling from the sky coming straight down. It appeared out of no where, it made no sound, if we were not looking in that direction and up in the sky we would have never known it was there. When it went behind the roof tops, we immediately ran towards the Main Street to see where it went and it darted west and it was all but out of sight in a split second. This was not a plane or anything that we have ever seen before.

Lincoln, NH
Blueish sphere on top of mountain moving slowly back and forth. Sphere moved to the right roughly 100 yards then began to move back and forth again. The light moved down the mountain about 75 yards then back to the top. The sphere was changing from blue to green to blue it then shot down the mountain just above the tree line and sped off to the right at an tremendous speed.

Originally saw one craft above Roxbury Park. It was large, bright red, round and moving slowly. It changed to white, light orange, red and white again. It seemed to shrink in size then just disappeared. As we drove approximately a half mile to Shady Lane we witnessed two more moving together. Again bright red large circles. They moved together very slowly, changed colors, then slowly dissipated.

Buhl, ID
Sitting on deck in back yard looking North West. Sky was cloudy, we saw one light (orange orb) appear in a break in the clouds it blinked a number of times and another appeared to the right for a few seconds before blinking out. Neither reappeared. This is the second time we have seen these in the 5 months.

Plakias (Greece; Crete) · Greece
There's not much to tell; I had come home from a party with a friend, and I was looking out of a window. There was an orange sphere moving, and my first thought was that it must be a shooting star. But it didn't have the trails or anything like that. Either way, I watched it for approximately 10s and it moved behind the mountain and out of sight. I know no-one will believe me, but there is a US military base not far from here, and the orange thing was flying in a straight beeline towards there. And I have seen shooting stars; I am capable of telling the difference. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Orange colored sphere traveling from west to south east. Light from object was 3-4 times brighter than a satellite and had a long pulse to it. No sound as it passed almost over head at the speed of a normal airplane.

Blue orb floating over Windsor Park. Behaved like a balloon in the wind but was glowing blue from a central light source. Could not detect altitude.
