Kite/diamond-shaped object (looked like it was on fire or glowing) streaked across in the Conifer/Morrison area at 11:30 pm-ish. No sound. Space debris?

Hurdle Mills, NC
At about 20:15 I left Hurdle Mills, NC, and headed south down Guess Road. Every time the tree cover broke to the west, I saw several extremely bright lights hovering in the distance to the southwest. I kept looking at them as I was driving and at some point I realized they were much brighter than anything I have ever seen before. All of a sudden, the lights quickly moved toward me going northeast. As the lights got closer, I thought they were on a triangular object with a light on each corner. I thought the object was a stealth bomber. I pulled over to the side of the road, took a picture of it with my cell phone, and called my mother. As it got closer to me, I realized that the triangular shape was only the front half of the vehicle and it was actually diamond shaped. As it flew faster toward me, I rolled down my car window, stuck my head out the window, and looked at it as it passed over me. It was huge and flying at a very low height – around the ! height a crop-duster might fly. Each side seemed to be 75’ – 100’. I was awestruck at how something that big could stay in the air and then I realized it was silent and I freaked out a bit. I remember thinking that I needed to note the location and I remember passing by Holeman-Ashley Road, but I don’t remember if that was right before or after I saw the object. After the object passed over me it quickly was out-of-sight. I drove to the first safe place to pull over, a gas station at the intersection of Routes 157 and 57, and looked for a pen or pencil to use to record everything I witnessed. I didn’t gave a pen in my glove box or front seat, so I got out of my car to see if I had one in my purse on the back seat. As soon as I exited the car, I noticed that many dogs were barking hard. It was eerie. After recording everything, I got back into my car and started driving to my original destination. Someone drove up behind me, started tailgating me, and followed me to my destination about 25 miles away. I was upset about it but then I remembered looking in my rear view mirror when I had pulled over to watch the object, and I had seen a blue car pull over about 200 feet behind me. The car that was following me was also blue and I think that person might be a witness, too. In retrospect, I think that person might have been following me to see if I saw what he or she saw. If someone contacts me about this incident, I have the make, model and license plate number of the blue car, but I never spoke to the person, in case the person was a nut. One other thing to note…before I left my house and saw the object, I let my dogs outside in my yard for about 15 minutes. When I went outside to get them and bring them inside, all three were hiding under my porch. One of my dogs frequently does this, but not all three dogs. Again, in retrospect, I wonder if they sensed something was different.

Brookings, SD
This unidentified flying object had the exact appearance as a star. That is, until it began to move. I wasn't startled, as I've seen strange UFO-like objects in the sky many times in this town before. As a night-owl, I've become quite accustomed to seeing them. The "star" started slowly moving and then stopped. Short red and blue lights, "beams" if you will, shot out of the bottom of the "star." After about 10 minutes or so, it disappeared.

Clackamas, OR
While driving a passenger vehicle east on Oregon Highway 212 in Clackamas, Oregon, I observed a golden-yellow object in the sky southeast of my position. It appeared to be one very bright object, a square or diamond shape at the top and a bright "starlike" point of light at the bottom of the diamond. As I watched, the bright "star" separated from the square looking "top", and drifted very slowly away from the "square", appearing to be descending toward the ground. Both the "star" and the "square" were visible against a clear blue, brightly lit morning sky, the sun had not yet risen above the horizon. The golden-yellow color of the objects were similar in color to a sodium vapor street light, but much brighter, and appeared to be shiny and metallic. Neither object appeared to be moving horizontally. My first thought was that the object was a cloud, but there were no other clouds in the sky and this object appeared to have clearly defined boundaries, and the top looked like it had straight edges. The objects were between me and the rising sun, seeming to be backlit and not reflecting sunlight. The objects were very bright, the larger of the 2 being much brighter than a full moon, the smaller being much brighter than Venus in a dark sky. I was working at the time so had no opportunity to stop and observe, or get a photo. I lost sight of the objects when I had to change direction to get to my destination. My wife was traveling the same road in the same direction about 5 minutes behind me and observed the same objects, but because she had a different destination she was able to observe the objects until 07:25, whereas I lost sight of the objects at about 07:15. She was able to intermittently observe both objects, the "square" lost its brightness and disappeared leaving behind a puffy cloud that faded from view. I believe the objects were a few thousand feet in the air and 2 to 8 miles away, somewhere over Carver, Barton, or Redland Oregon. If they were any farther away than that they would have been huge. The "square" was about 1/2 the size of my little fingernail held at arms length, the "star" was a very bright point of light. I don't believe the objects were flares, balloons, ball lightning, aircraft, planets satellites, or stars; I have seen all of those and this looked like nothing I have ever seen before. My wife's observations match my own up until the time I had to turn away.

Alpharetta, GA
I was driving around 9 at night along Kimball Bridge Rd, about to turn right onto Waters Rd. My dad was in the passenger seat. Movement in the sky caught my eye and I looked up and to the left. If the craft was somewhat close to the ground, it was maybe as big as a football field. I only got a detailed look at the front of it, so I saw it as being diamond shaped. It was pitch black which made it easier to see against the navy blue of the sky and the greyish clouds. At each corner was a big circular light, each one a different color. One was amber, another was turquoise. I can't recall which of those two colors was in the front corner. I immediately called my dad's attention to it. It was difficult for me to get a clear look at it since I was driving and my dad, there because I only had a learner's permit, kept telling me to keep my eyes on the road. I slowed my car to consistently look between the UFO and the road. I reached for my phone in the cup holder, and my dad stopped me and told me he'd get a picture. By the time he reached for his phone, we had turned onto Waters Rd, heading in the same direction of the craft. For a couple seconds we were right under it so it was hard to see it in its entirety through the windshield, but that soon changed as it was going at a faster speed than us. My dad, not skilled with technology and without the aid of his reading glasses, fumbled to find the camera app while still trying to keep an eye on the craft and my speed, and he ultimately failed to take a picture . It was considerably faster than us, but moved soundlessly at a steady speed. The speed limit was 35mph and my dad prevented me from going much faster. Tall trees line most of the road, so we lost sight of the craft any time we came to a larger curve. By the time we got halfway to two thirds of the way down Waters Rd (.7 to .9 miles) we'd completely lost sight completely. At home, my dad and I, without discussing the details of the UFO, each drew what we saw. He, having seen the back of the craft clearer than I, drew a pentagonal house-shaped craft, with lights in the two back corners, whereas I drew a diamond with one light in the singular back corner. After 3 days, my father changed his mind and decided we'd seen helicopters flying in formation, which doesn't explain how they were connected by darkness, how they emitted no noticeable sound, and why they had enormous colorful lights, no two the same color. However, he maintains that he saw a flying saucer with his father as kid. There were 2-3 cars following mine on Kimball Bridge which may indicate other sightings.

Indio, CA
11:20 this morning, I was sitting at my desk at work, when I heard what sounded like the cracking of a whip followed by a low level hum or vroom sound. I got up from my desk and went out the front door of the shop. When I looked up (north – northwest direction), I saw a Black Diamond shaped craft with what looked like 2 triangle- shaped fins off of the back end of it. As soon as I saw it, 2 F-16's flew over head in pursuit. They were at roughly 5500 feet. I'm guessing on the altitude here… The Black Diamond shape craft made a sharp turn to the right over the mountains and headed east. The 2 F-16's made their (much slower) banking turn to follow. I'm not sure what type of engine was in the Black Diamond shaped craft, but it took off straight east faster than anything that I've ever seen. The 2 F-16's light up their engines and gave pursuit. But not anywhere near as fast as the Black Diamond shaped craft. This all lasted maybe 20 seconds before they were out of sight, heading east towards Blythe.

Latitude is : +39.768436 Longitude is : -9593377590 About 9 pm we were outside and looked into the sky to the southeast of where we were standing. There was a star in the sky. BUT as we watched it, it began to move. It moved left a ways, and then down a ways then back a ways, up a ways etc. In other words. Stars and planets sit in one place and don’t zig zag. This looked like a star but not sure what it was????? Can you help define this movement? I am not sure if it was ufo or not. About an hour later we went out to look again and it was gone. Sighting of star, we believe. We corresponded with the witness, and believe the star was Sirius. PD

Friday night driving home on Hwy 44 in between Freer and San Diego, Texas, I saw a bright bright light it was just hovering right over the power lines as I drove towards it I saw it so close it was shiny like really clean steel it passed almost right over me I really slowed down and saw it clear I rolled down my window the power source was coming from under it not like a plane or helicopter it made a sound but not really loud just like a shhhhhh I don't know it was too crazy I was in shock it just hovered there I should have pulled over and tried to take a photo but I couldn't believe it was right there it floated away slowly like it was looking at something... I should have called the cops or something i was in shock…

When I got back into town I called the police station. They said that the night shift, whom I talked with DID NOT leave any messages about a strange light. I thought, "that's crazy"! I then called the radio station and they gave me the same message. I thought if any one was outside! this morning, they would have seen this thing. As I watched it, I had the unusual feeling that it wanted to contact me. It scared me as I did not know what it's intentions were. Was it friendly, were they violent, etc.

Fountain, CO
I was driving south on Powers blvd towards Fontaine in Fountain security widefield area. This area is well known for planes as it has an airport just north of this location as well as an air force base. Seeing planes of all shapes and sizes come and go is not abnormal and that is why this stood out so much. As i drove south on Powers I saw what at first appeared to be a plane. Three bright white lights in a diamond shape and one flashing red on what i would describe as the body of the craft. The craft heading south banks and starts to head north towards the airport. Now this is not too unusual for military craft and the slow speed it seemed to be moving at suggested military aircraft. As I made my way to Fontaine I made a right and headed west on Fontaine. The craft could be seen out my drivers side window. As the craft grew closer it seemed to slow down to a point that any normal aircraft would fall out of the sky. This one however hovered above homes in the area. There was no sound from the craft and it was not a helicopter based on size and light position on the craft. Also, there was no reflection from either the white or flashing red light on the craft. I made a left heading south down Mesa Ridge Pkwy and the craft was completely motionless. As i passed it on the left i watched it in my rear view mirror. It moved West behind me. I turned my car around to follow this strange aircraft. At the light of Fontaine i made a left and headed west but the lights and craft had disappeared. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

A COUPLE MONTHS AGO, I spotted two diamond shaped objects in the West, NorthWest sky. About a month ago, a lower diamond shaped object flew over with red lights going off white lights coming on then the red lights returned and the process continued. This ship continued out of sight to the south,a few seconds later a second ship with white lights followed the first ship at this time the third ship which had been stationary for over two months left it's position and flew off beside the second ship going south.I sawonly white lights on the third ship. I found this very strange that the object would set for months then leave while I was watching. Thank you would like to talk with someone.

It stayed in the air for most of the time. Periodically it would drop what looked like flares. It appeared as though it was very low, but once we got home I saw it elevate quickly and it's light dimmed. Then it looked like it swung around and brightened up, then once more swung out and I lost it. Kind of like in a squiggle line pattern, or sound wave pattern. Also, it had green and red/orange lights.

Rochester, NY
I was walking into an apartment building and noticed a very bright green light sitting still in the sky at what appeared to be maybe 7 to 10 thousand feet high. Just based on the brightness of the light and the fact that it was sitting stationary in the sky, I immediately pulled out my phone and started filming. I then watched for the next 12 or 13 minutes as this thing blew my mind. It appeared to be square, or diamond in shape. It changed from green to red then back to green in no real pattern. It did not make a sound. It traveled from one side of the city to the entire other in under 10 seconds. It dropped so low that it was out of my sight for a few minutes, then rose as if someone had a string attached to it and yanked it upward. I would say 1,000 feet to 10,000 feet in under 3 seconds. As it got close enough to me to really make it out I could tell the body of it was black, there were four huge perfect circle lights on the bottom, two red and two green, but at times there would be either no green or no red. I also saw a flashing white or maybe even amber colored light on the back? Maybe front? I am basing the size on a passenger jet which flew through the same vicinity as the craft moments after it disappeared which I also caught on video and I would say that it was half to 3/4 the size of the airplane which was a full size jet plane. It also appeared to be traveling 15 to 20 times faster than that plane which was descending to land and much much higher. This happened in Rochester NY and I witnessed it from the suburb Greece, NY. It was mostly south of my location, but at times traveled far enough north east (in under 10 seconds mind you) that I had to turn my whole body and face Irondequoit, NY, which is east of Greece, to keep recording it. I stopped a passing car and asked the young lady to look up and tell me what she sees so I know i'm not going crazy and she watched it for about 5 seconds, said oh my God that's a ufo! I said thank u for confirming and she promptly pulled away as if she was nervous. The craft made a lot of erratic movements. Stopping on a dime, zig zag patterns at times, shifting as if on an axis. At one point it started heading right at me and had me nervous enough to start walking back towards the apartment building for safety. It was acting as if it were investigating or searching for something. Truly a life altering experience for me, felt absolutely nothing like a drone which is the infamous explanation i'm getting for this. I own a drone. I know what they can do. I know there's a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and uses for them. This was not that. Oh and I don't know if this relevant or not but I experienced a really bad headache about an hour after the event which would not go away to the point that I had to take tylenol for it. I NEVER EVER have headaches that lead me to have to medicate. Cannot remember one time in life. I don't know if it was just from all the excitement or what.

Return trip home and walking into yard when suddenly 200-400 ft up (best guess) 9 delta shaped ufo's appear flying in a V formation. 3 of the fliers exchanged places. They had a orange/blue glow to them, they were silent. It's night time; birds don't fly here at night, except bats and owls. They traveled from the north to south and suddenly vanished (blinked out) before flying out of line of sight. The exactness of those fliers that switched places, one moving out, the next moved nimble, agile into the others exact place. We've seen ufo's never this close before. No sound....... still astonished. WoW Wow wow

I was parking in my parking space and I noticed something big above my two story building. I've never seen anything like that. It was massive, diamond shaped object. It was moving very slowly and it made no noise. It had only few lights and it looked dark gray like a machine would. By the time I got out of my car, it was gone.

I was out with my friend in this neighborhood on the lake stargazing. There is a bridge (high up, stretches over the lake) that we were on where you can see almost everything. My friend points at the sky at these hovering bright red lights. There was no flashing that we could see at this point. It moved one way, then it would stop, then slowly keep moving. It gets closer and we continue to watch it. There ended up being 4 lights, in a diamond shape. One of these lights inconsistently blinked white. The object continued to move across the sky in across very odd way, speeding up and slowing down, moving around sporadically, and definitely not traveling in a direct flight path like an airplane would. It was not a helicopter. It was not a drone. It was not at at very high altitude and there was absolutely NO sound. We continued to watch it fly and then suddenly rapidly (EXTREMELY fast) fly down and our view was obstructed by a house. We got in the car and drove towards where we last saw it, but it was no where to be seen.

While in the parking lot of my company I was looking at the stars. I noticed an object that looked bigger/thicker and brighter at some part while dull in others. This object made a sudden D movement down and to the left and then made a zigzag up and completely disappeared. We have corrected the date shown above, to reflect a sighting in the year 2015, not 2025. PD

I don’t know how to measure the speed or distance of any flying objects. I can only give a report relative to my own knowledge. I was driving on highway 116 in Texas, heading north toward Gatesville, around 8:10 pm (pure nighttime, clear skies and no visible moon). To my right (northeast) in the sky there was a flare of orange light, it appeared to be a four-pointed diamond in the sky. From my vantage point it looked about the size of headlight. The shape then appeared to move in a horizontal fashion (left to right, or west to east) while multiplying, so that there appeared to be three aligned orange diamonds, before it merged into a single shape and then disappeared. It was about midway in the sky, well above the treeline. The spectacle lasted about five seconds. I pulled over and grabbed my phone, but it had already ended. However, in its absence there were multiple moving lights, each about the size of a star. There were suddenly about three or four of them in the northeast sky, all moving in different directions. They were blinking rapidly like a strobe light and moving considerably faster than a plane. There was also inexplicably a shooting star that flashed between them. I got out of my car and tried to get video but they were too dim to be recorded. I immediately noticed that to my left (northwest) there were even more of the fast moving blinking lights, about four more. There was a rash of these blinking lights spread across the entire sky. Unlike the diamond shape, which was still horizon-level, these lights were moving freely about much higher, like satellites. It was admittedly hard to gauge their exact direction due to their strange lighting, but it still genuinely looked like they were disappearing and reappearing throughout the sky. I called my friend and observed the lights for about another ten minutes. I saw what looked like a normal plane-large, slow-moving, and with green blinking lights- appear on the northwest, heading east. Suddenly two more very bright, very big white lights appeared directly, distantly above me. They were about plane sized. They seemed to be high in the atmosphere but once again, I could easily be mistaken there. The two lights were moving down, one heading toward east and another toward the west. The westbound light suddenly made a sharp turn RIGHT, heading directly toward the other light. There was a loud whirring sound, like a divebomb. My friend on the phone heard it as well. It had a made a clear curving turn and accelerated. It was chasing the eastbound light. Combined with the noise and the pursuing object’s speed, I thought that I was going to witness a collision. I hung up the phone to record-however, both lights (still heading east) then grew dim and diminished in size, until they disappeared. I continued to watch the skies for another twenty minutes. While there was still an excess of moving lights (about four to six, ranging one eastern edge of the sky to the west), they were now dim and twinkling and unremarkable. They all seemed to eventually vanish. However, there was yet another orange diamond shape that erupted, the same size and location as the first one. It simply flashed out a single orange gleam, and was gone. I waited another ten minutes, but nothing happened. By now it was around nine o’ clock. I drove for another ten minutes to my destination. While there I waited outside and continued to watch the stars. Sure enough, in the east there was a blinking white light jetting across the sky toward the west. This light was about plane sized. About midway across (at the northern point) it suddenly seemed to stop, but it was in fact only moving very slowly. It had very instantaneously dropped its speed- however the blinking rate of the lights was still the same. It then slowly flew eastward until it was out of sight. Though I watched for more, nothing happened afterwards of note.
