A group of people were watching an RC car when me and 1 other person witnessed a hovering white oval. It did not leave a trail and when it went behind a tree it disappeared. Nobody but myself and another seen it.

Allen, TX
At approximately 14:!0 CST I was leaving the Home Depot in Allen, TX located at McDermott Dr and Highway 75. I noticed a strange black object (estimated 2000 - 3000ft in the air -- yet difficult to know for certain) that appeared at first to be a drone or a balloon (or even an object on a tether). The object appeared to waffle around in a near static location. It was very difficult to understand what I was looking at, as it didn't make sense the more I looked at it. After a couple of minutes of observation, the object began to head South and appeared to gain altitude, as it grew smaller in appearance. I attempted to take a very short video of the object in which you can see the object. However, the quality nor length was solid, as by the time I thought to film it, the object had already began to fade. While the object was staying in one location, it almost appeared that it was having difficulty maintaining flight (it was weird). I tried to rule out the balloon theory, as the object headed South above highway 75 and according to the Aviation Weather Center, the wind barbs had the wind at 3000ft going at 35 knots from the West at the time of the sighting, which didn't line up with the direction the object was heading. I can send the very short clip of the object to the e-mail below, you have to pause the video and look closely at the left side of the video to see the object.

Saw 4 orange orbs in total, one passed right over my house slowly, but steadily, I couldnt really make out the shape because it was very bright, then a second passed after I related it to a neighbor and the neighbor saw it too and as we were watching the second one disappear over the ocean two more came along the same path together at the same time. Minutes later a girl saw us watching the sky and showed us a video of the first orb that passed over, but I dont think she saw the two that came just a little later (she got back into her car). Unlike anything I have ever seen, no trail, no noise and appeared to have unbridled speed, although they all went about the same speed across the sky on a very clear night.

Driving 50 MPH East bound when I observed a metallic, stationary/oval shape in South Eastern sky 10 to 15,000 feet in elevation that was reflecting light from Sun for approximately 10 seconds then the object went from a metallic reflective color to an extremely bright white light from the opposing side and vanished.

Bayonne, NJ
I got up to the bathroom after 2 in the morning, from the window I could see some very bright lights were 4 lights in an almost square oval shape, a light in each corner, so to speak, they were very bright and bluish in color, the object It was stopped but a few seconds later it began to move very slowly, and two identical objects appeared almost below the first one that I saw, they were a little smaller, I was very scared and I told my son to come and see these objects, we ran to the dining room to The large window, there I had a much broader vision, and we could see then that there were not only three, about 5 objects were seen moving all at the same time from left to right, all this happened at the level of my eyes, when I looked towards At the top of the window I saw that there were many, lined up and everything moving at the same speed very slowly, then I went out to the street and I could see the perimeter were at least 100 or more, all very bright and! flashingWe got scared and we went in, I kept looking through the window and the entire sector where these objects were, began to form a very rare and elongated waving cloud species in seconds the entire sector was covered with these rare clouds that were not clouds, and it became clearer, more illuminated, all this melted into a thick layer of mist that only covered the sector where these objects were, it became a kind of giant triangle with a milky appearance, gradually it was fading, but it only happened Inside the perimeter where these objects were, suddenly a kind of very large meteorite was seen that crossed in front of me with an electric blue head and leaving a trail of a very strong electric green too, also before this we saw a giant ribbon like a cloud , which moved like a snake in a great hurry from the right to the left to solidify at the beginning of where these objects were and blend in with the rest of the fog.I stayed until 6 in the morning watching everythi! ng. The objects remained immobile but very radiant, and the mi! lky clou ds happened once more, and then around 5 in the morning one of the closest and largest objects with very radiant lights descended a little and moved a couple of times from right to left and so vice versa until all the objects lined up again and went the way they arrived I don't know if they are government drones or UFOs? But I was afraid, it felt like a galactic invasion, I felt very minimized and angry, please, what was this? I have videos and a photo

Delray Beach, FL
November 29, 2020 Dear Trenz, hello, my name is Gary Ford. I am from Delray Beach Florida. At around 5:35 PM I had just arrived home from work and was taking my dog out to the backyard. It was still light out and the sky was getting darker but still pretty light out with the sun lighting the western sky up pink and orange. I looked out the east and the full moon was illuminated hanging in the pale blue sky. Like many evenings just before stars begin to come out I’d like to take my binoculars and try to find stars. But tonight a full moon hanging in the background I couldn’t resist grabbing my binoculars. As I lifted my binoculars towards the moon it just so happened that a passenger jet was flying northbound and I began to follow it. After I became disinterested I started to move my binoculars back towards the east and when doing so I noticed a oval than circular then flat shaped black object in the sky. At first I thought to myself, maybe there is a spiderweb in my binoculars vision as I was pairing from underneath our mango tree sitting down. But simply just by moving my binoculars around and standing up trying not to lose the object in my sites shaking wildly, I managed to keep my binoculars field of vision trained on the object. I sat back down Indian style and secured my elbows to my knees to keep from moving too much and stabilize myself. I thought to myself maybe this object is just a drone, or maybe some sort of balloon, as it shape continue to slowly change over time. But as I continue to watch for the 20 minutes I was trained on the object, I soon realized that it was more like a flat disc in the sky, and definitely really far away and much larger than I first thought it appeared to be. If I were to drop the binoculars down you could not see the object whatsoever because it was so far away and so high up in the sky. At one point it is actually tilted in such a way ! as to catch the sunlight. Being that it was the setting sun light it was more of an orange colored light and it reflected off the object for a moment making it appear more silver than black at this time. As I continue to watch it I began to think to myself is this thing ever going to do any maneuvers other than just seeming to rise higher and higher towards the very very high clouds that you get at the very top of the atmosphere. As a “rise so high that it was getting even harder to see what the binoculars it was at that moment that it literally just sped off out of you from left to right so fast it’s strict in my vision. I looked everywhere I could in the sky from the lowest horizon above the trees all the way back up and straight above me and all around the moon again but could not find the object it had just disappeared as to which I honestly think it just took off faster than anything I’ve ever seen before. I hate to use this description but it really did look like that object that the United States Air Force had released of that object that they followed that seem to do maneuvers that they never saw before. The video where the guy was saying look at that dude look at th! at dude! I hope that my description is taken seriously and it was very interesting to see and I feel privileged to have witnessed it. Thank you for your time if you have any questions you may contact me if there’s a place to put My contact info. Sincerely, James Ford

Coming home from work I saw a reddish color orb move from east to west horizon to horizon then seconds later it moved from west to east horizon to horizon at an incredible speed. I was at the top of a high hill and could see for miles. Going 50 mph I saw this object and only was able to travel approximately 100 feet in the time this object crossed the sky and came back then it was gone. First thought was meteors don't retrace there exact paths too and fro.

The sky was dark with scarce clouds. I was in the car with my family. While stopped at a red light, we seen a dark oval figure flying slowly. The craft was covered in what appeared to be flames. The flames were so bright, they illuminated the clouds. The craft suddenly stopped moving, and the flames ceased, leaving the craft almost invisible. As it proceeded to move, the flames started again. Out of shock, I was not able to record or take a picture. After about 30 seconds, the craft stopped moving, however the flames were not gone. The flames were dimmed, but the craft blended in with the normal stars in the sky.

Black orb appeared in the sky after glowing red orb. Witnessed the black orb shape change and hover blinking in abs out until it finally vanish in a blurry part of the sky. Almost looked like a portal.

1 low flying craft at slow speed. Disappeared around 250 yds from me. Orange orb. Grabbed binoculars and craft was covered in an orange glow. I keep looking into the sky and saw two morw of the same craft speeding about 10000' in a zigzag formation. This went on for 3 mins till they went straight up and I lost them.

Looking at the moon, Saturn, and Jupiter with my binoculars a craft moving extremely fast zoomed past my line of sight amd disappeared directly above my location. Maybe 50 yds away. This thing was moving. Low altitude amd high velocity. Orange orb like craft. No noise or vibtations. Was obvious it wasnt manmade. I live by airforce base and see craft all the time. This was not one of the airforce nor a drone. It was so fast that I could barely keep up with it for more than 3 secs before it vanished out of nowhere. I felt as though they wanted to be seen. They were flying too low to not be noticed by people.

I was outside taking pictures of the moon. I turned my head away from the moon, glancing another direction. As I did so, I saw a rather out of this world ship. It was unlike anything I had ever seen before. It seemed to hover for about 20-25 seconds. At one time it even moved from side to side. It did have lights, but lights that were not on earthly aircrafts...only UFO lights. As it hovered, it kind of went still for a second, and then I chose to look away...eventually looking back at where the UFO had been, but it had vanished. Simply vanished!

Belmont, NC
Yesterday on November 17, 2020, around 6 PM I was traveling from Charlotte, North Carolina to Belmont, North Carolina when I observed a strange object in the sky. I observed it for 5-7 minutes. After I arrived to my home, I parked and began walking towards an area where I hoped to continue observing it but I could not see it. The object appeared large and was positioned vertically and shaped like a stretched out oval with the bottom of the oval being denser in mass the top. The top of the oval almost appeared to trail the object, which first led me to believe it may be a comet. When the object did not move it was apparent it was not a comet. It was white with a light orange hue and was opaque with the outer rim having a cloudlike quality that was less opaque. The center of the object was black and had no opaque quality. The center did not appear to be reflecting light. The black center contrasted starkly with the outer rim. I could not see anything solid in the center – only blackness, almost like a dark hole.

Canfield, OH
With the Covid situation it has forced the couple to shop in much different ways than normal. They were looking for a farm market to see if they had any vegetables. As the man and his wife were on an out of the way road, mid afternoon, he sighted something about 800 foot off the ground, oval and very shiny, with the sun reflecting off of it, slowly moving up and down. He asked his wife if she was seeing what he was seeing and she confirmed that she also saw it ahead of them. As they drew closer and had a better view of it, the shape was almost a perfect elongated oval, they could not see if there were any lights on it because of the reflection of the sun. As they approached the object it made a slight wobble and shot straight up and disappeared in the blink of an eye. His wife had always been a non-believer of such things but never kept him from his interests. Now, she said, "I always thought you were crazy, but I can't argue with what I saw." At 3! :45 pm, the sun was setting in the southwest, clear sky, very little wind , no one else in the area (farm country).

Williams, AZ
With a group of 5 people star watching in Williams, Arizona. We tracked two satellites and saw two shooting stars, when we noticed directly up above at the height from Earth that a satellite would be, a bright, white orb-shaped object that started out moving similar to the ISS heading south in the sky. We then watched it slowed way down, get brighter and do an odd, jerky zig zag pattern just before completely shooting across the sky like a shooting star heading opposite toward the north and then disappearing out of sight. Ten seconds later it returned coming into view directly above us again and completely stopped for about 10 seconds, then it moved diagonally down toward the tree line and got more dim as it decended until it completely dimmed out about 20 degrees above the horizon. I had no explanation for what it could be. It was speed variable (could go from super fast to stop instantly), it can dim and brighten at will, change directions instantly, no so! und, and the zig zag maneuvers seemed almost like it was blipping in and out of existance in fractions of a second, giving it this weird jerking type of motion. As an experienced star gazer and telescope enthusiast, I have never witnessed anything like it before.

The object observed was a very large oval/disc shaped aircraft that was hovering closer to the ground. The object was blinking red and then immediately took a sharp turn where an oval/disc-like shape was visible and then beamed a bright yellow light, where 3 panels were seen. Other objects were now visible surrounding us but were significantly smaller and flashing in different red and green patterns as the larger aircraft shrunk in size to mimic the other objects seen.

Myself and 3 others punched out to go home at 630pm. One guy left immediatly, another 2 walked with me to the lot, the second guy got in his truck and left as I was talking to the third guy, I was facing south. Above him in the distance, in the sky, I saw an oval shape lit on the leading edge. At first it looked like a pinpoint but as it moved from west to east, it quickly because a defined shape. I immediatly stopped our conversation and pointed it out to him and we were in shock of what we were viewing. We walked more into the center of the lot. It was moving no faster than I would say and aircraft moves. This was no aircraft in our opinion. I took my phone out and took a picture, I switched my phone to video and as I started recording, my friend said it just vanished. The sky was clear, no clouds could be viewed. There were aircraft in the area and you could clearly see their navigation lights. We viewed this object for about 10 seconds before I snapped the picture I have of it. I can best describe the object as a well defined oval massive in shape. I would scale it at maybe 4 times larger than an aircraft. There was a glow to the front that wasnt like a headlight, it didnt project out like a headlight. It was more of a light at the leading edge of it that shined back onto the object that clearly defined its shape, or atleast the leading edge of it. The shape was clearly defined as an oval, the end of the shape was crisp, it didnt appear that the glow of it was like a a light being shined into the distance, it was very clear that the light was shining at the object as if it was a light to show what it was, not where it was going.

This morning I was in the kitchen making coffee looking out of my kitchen window I saw three metallic objects that look like birds at first like birds because I know the birds are going south in the winter. However, these were the shiniest birds, no wings, they were glimmering in the sunlight. Hhowever these were metallic football shaped, and the shiniest things in the sky they kept shimmering and reflecting sunlight as I noticed they were moving in tight alignment. As they moved out of the plane of my view they aligned into like a three object triangle and as the object starting getting more distant, and at a certain point it didn't stop, it seemed hesitate and then it shot straight up and into the sky of what little left I could see it was just like a really fast blur. It was moving in a south east direction.

I stepped out on my deck with a cup of coffee looking up at the sky. I saw 3 balls of light in the sky over Fort Frances, ON at first I tried adjusting my eyes but then another ball of light went from south to north and disappeared. I ran in to get my phone and held video on the spot and and another ball came into view traveling from west to east then it disappeared. I have the last one on video. I will be out again tomorrow morning to see if it reappears.

Ufo in North sky. Altitude above clouds and aircraft. Hovering, moved southeast then back toward due north. Shape has changed from sphere to oval continuously. As if its slightly rotating. Though it was a weather ballon but has been seen continuously for 6 + hours. Contacted county sheriff who confirmed the sighting and has not identified it.

I was driving in a car with another passenger, around noon on the approximate date of October 29th/30th of 2020. We were at Sauk Trail and Western Avenue where I noticed a white oval/rectangle shape moving in the sky west to east. It had no other color to it. The closest object I can think of that it looked like was a helicopter but it was all white which most helicopters are not. It then moved along going lower to where it disappeared behind trees and was no longer visible. It did not move any faster than a usual object in the sky such as a helicopter or plane but it was very unusual and of a single white color. It was absolutely not a cloud. It made no audible noise, no lights of any kind, no unusual speed, in fact the thing most strange about it was just that, that it was of such uniform color white/off white. The shape was also strange as it appeared generally close but looked like a roundish oval blob. We both saw the object and are very perple! xed by it.

Santa Fe, NM
On October 25th, 2020, I was in my front yard sky watching and talking to a friend on the phone. While I was talking with him, I noticed the biggest and brightest meteor I had ever seen in the western part of the sky. After scanning the sky a bit more, I looked to my right towards the NE and saw what looked like someone was walking with a very, very bright flashlight on the top of the Eldorado Preserve about a mile from our house. Since it was 9:30pm, I could not understand why anyone would be hiking at that hour way up there. There are many things to be wary of, especially at night; cactus, coyotes, mountain lions and the steepness of the terrain. I went and got my husband to watch the object. We sat on the bench facing the preserve, watching the light swing back and forth as if someone was walking. After about 2 minutes, I looked at the light and realized that it had lifted above the mountain. It was ascending. The light was still swinging around but was getting dimmer and dimmer. When it was at its highest, about 45 degrees above the horizon, it dimmed until it was almost out. At that point, my husband and I saw two objects eject from the top towards the right and fade. After that, the object completely faded also. There was no further activity that evening. It was impossible to estimate how far away and how high the object was but due to its brightness, it seemed relatively close.
