Multiple orbs of light were moving horizontally backwards and forwards across a contained area in the sky. I witnessed this for at least 25 mins. When I first saw it I could only see 3 orbs of light and they then multiplied. They were passing each other then going backwards and forwards. I cannot find a rational explanation for this. Stadium light / laser show in Westham, London — Westham Stadium, specifically. [NUFORC annotation: Searchlight - Certain]

A flicker of light with a gas like cloud moves from my sight as another gas cloud movement behind it. I had to prove to my mother that I was not on drugs with a visit to my doctor. I have a picture but you can’t really see it like you can in real time. It slows down as if it knows I see it, then takes off to its destination. Quick shooting beams emit from the star like light. Almost as if it was a headlight or a beam of light shooting to another starlike light but doesn’t stay on like a head light. Just a shooting beam of light, it’s how I was attracted to pay closer attention. I have one daytime photo of two metal objects peaking out of clouds as it was a rainy day during that time during photo. I don’t know exactly how to explain what I seen so I hope that this makes sense to someone reading this.

Initially one craft was observed, the singular craft glided from one point to another whilst being observed. No noise, no trails, just a bright light slightly dimmer than the stars, it was joined by another after moving a fair distance, same type of glow, size, speed. They performed an X in the air, circling each other and doing an X again. They vanished after 10 minutes of observation. The third craft was lone and appeared after a few minutes had passed since its companions had gone. This craft was the exact same but performed high speed maneuvers. Stopping dead in the sky and changing direction before firing off into the North West. Crafts were smooth, Dark metal grey only visible whilst moving and their lights shimmered slightly. Seemed to react to reactions of observers.

After moving from 180 degrees SW to 200 degrees SW it stayed still for 2 hours then dropped in an angle to 240 degrees SW almost to the ground. It then instantly moved upward to right about 100 ft then back to whee it had temporarily stopped. At this point it’s a white dot that increased and decreased its illuminosity. According to moon schedule it should have been a new quarter only right side showing. I have video on my ring camera. Besides this a small white orb floats down parallel. Also have odd lights for at least 3 consecutive nights and saucer craft that can only be seen on video. The moon like object could be seen. At first it simply appeared and as it moved right it seemed to change shape and illuminosity around its edges but staying roughly round. I need to screen record my Ring footage. Wanted to send this right away.

@ approx: 19:44hrs as I were doing not a thing specific to anything, just sitting and ping! up overhead high altitude (above 20,000ft say) from the N -dir- did fly a single dimmer, (in comparison to prior reports) by observation, spark! it flew in a mostly S.E. -dir- veered to starboard (RT) -noticable- and continued on. It started to 'dissolve' IMO which has presented prior to indicate that the craft is preparing to blip! out of sight. This particular craft did not. It flew on a bit further then as they typically do in their subtle nuanced way, demonstrated an intense glow! all at once, very very quickly!! followed by a dimmer yet as subtle glow! muted in appearance fast fade away! and then blip! gone... Followed up by at approx: 19:50hrs did fly a second single dimmer spark! from the W to overhead from my seated, static position on Terra Firma facing in a usual S.E. -dir-. It flew on its trajectory JRA (Just Rolling Along) in the early dark nighttime sky until out of my observable view. I did not get up off the deck and give visual pursuit... -fin- * in closing this report I did wish to add a particular 'thing' I've noticed prior during the time these more recent events reported on here that was absent last nite during this event. And that was a peculiar triangle pattern of stars, up high, not atmospherically high and typically directly above from my static position on Terra Firma, that seemed looming somewhat. Not menacing. Just THERE. Presence... *in an attempt to sway away from speculation here, there when reporting. FYI

I've sent a few pictures that I think you might find interesting. Or at least give a plausible explanation. One is a close up of the object in question and the other is the actual photo of the sunset with the object upper-center-left appearing as a small dot. The third is the object closer and has moved to upper-center-right. Please note: neither my girlfriend or I noticed the object when the photos were taken. Not until this morning when I was looking at the pictures did I see them yet they are clearly visible. Look forward to hearing from you and hearing what you think we are seeing here.

Henryville, IN
The object was not seen by the naked eye. It was no lens flare, and have the photos to prove that a cross shaped object makes a rapid decent and gets closer goes over our heads and keeps flying north. It was the middle of the early evening. Still plenty bright out. The photos capture the crafts path over the course of a few minutes. Again, neither of us saw anything in person. But then looked at our photos later and really dug deep into it. [NUFORC annotation: Bird - Possible]

I was sound asleep, probably about nine in the morning and was awakened by a very loud crash noise. I live near a fighter jet training Air Force base so I am used to loud planes flying over quite often - sometimes very low. This noise was much louder!! Honestly, it sounded like a crash. I jumped out of bed and ran to the window and saw what looked like a missile flying by. It was bullet shaped, metallic looking silver gray, and moving quite slow at a very slight decline. It was flying at about my eye level from the house and then disappeared into the trees. I waited to report this because I thought people would think that I am crazy. I have never seen anything like this before in my entire life. I hope this information is helpful.

Sitting at one spot familiar to myself (again) & it's going on 03:00AM and looking to the S.W. at I believe Venus? *checked with Earth Sky.com it was Venus, and to the right of the brightly glowing Venus his morning and a solid black shape, like a US state shaped (Utah, NM?) appears all of a sudden now!, entirely noticeable and really really black. Like if you know what a shadow entity is then I'd equate it to that as a solid, initial reference and blips out. Almost immediately following to the left of Venus/star a super faint flash, spark! of a thing. - and done-

It looks like an oval form and with pinocle, I think I see something next to it that looks like metal. It stays still until I start trying to film it with my phone, then it moves quickly. It move so fast like nothing I have seen before. It stays very still now..like it is watching me ..or this part of the world..very scary..actually. I have movies and pictures.. I can send them.

Looking in the west facing sky. A diamond shaped craft in very bright white light appeared out of middle of sky and dropped to a stop hovering for 30 to 45 seconds then just vanished. Upon arriving home did see in sky a similar shaped light just stop and moved very slow

Driving west on wildcat canyon road in Lakeside Ca, I saw a Brite white diamond shaped craft appear in midsky dropped down and hovered for 30 to 45 seconds then just vanished. Upon arriving at my home about 20 min later in La Mesa ca I noticed a white orb moving and diapering in sky the a similar diamond shaped craft with brute white lite in western sky just staying stationary for 15 min then vanished. Note if you called me I mistook your Washington number for a telemarketers So please call again Thanks

A bright circular light with red flare spotted high in the sky with a slight decline. It leveled out as the flare diminished into a short but persistent tail. It then changed direction slightly then when went upwards with great force with a visible orange ark in front as though it was going too fast. Similar to the look of an asteroid entering the atmosphere it behaved the same as it went upwards back into the the sky and eventually too distant to see into space.

Dark Sky footage at one of my weather stations captured an unexplained image. This Image is an 8 second exposure that repeats every 5 minutes of the night sky at a remote weather station site. Upon reviewing the timelapse, I found one image displaying a point of light traveling 60-80 miles in that 8 second exposure, along an irregular pathway. I welcome further review!

It made me think of the China satellite in China. At first we thought it was a shooting star. But the light repeated the same pattern from the same start point to the same end point at least 8-10 times. It didn't move that fast. And was faint. And when the faint cloud seem to pass we could no longer see it. It was a consistent and purposeful duration. I think a laser from a satellite.
