Las Vegas, NV
Driving north on the 215 beltway, I noticed 6 orange lights just northwest of me. The front light would blink out and another light would light up behind the other 5. The 4 in the middle stayed solid orange. As I drove further north I noticed a second set of orange lights further to the west doing the same thing. The lights where slightly at an angle, the first set I saw was angled southeast to northwest and the second one was southwest to northeast and at slightly different heights. It did not appear to be one object.

Chawton (near) (Hampshire) · United Kingdom
Coming out the door of my upstairs flat and looking south, I noticed a very bright white light in the night sky over a nearby field at an altitude of about 900-1,000 feet (so it cannot of been a star or planet), I watched it for some seconds walked downstairs and It looked for a few seconds like it had some kind of aura or haze underneath it or emitted this aura/light/haze deliberatetly or not. It the light then seemed to fade away come back and then fade away again. This is the same field where I observed and filmed a highly strange glowing pure white disc/saucer shape craft hovering over on 22nd June, 2002.

Melbourne, FL
Two orange lights appeared out of nowhere and stayed in the same position, hovering above the ocean at Melbourne Beach. 5 nerdy engineering students, who don't drink or do drugs, spotted the lights. One light appeared before the other and disappeared, before the other, too. Lights were very bright, illuminated beach, could see shells and look through bag with ease. Very small lights, seemed to be very far out in ocean, had faint cone of light around each light. Were probably not flares because they did not rise or fall at all. There were others at the beach that probably saw the lights, too. Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Princeton, IN
In the western sky, there appears a red light moving erradically just to the left of Orion. as it moved further to the left it was joined by 4 other lighta dancing in the sky and interacting with it. It settled due west of my position and continued moving erratically, dancing up and down and left and right. It was still there visibly at 11:30 pm as I came in to write this report. I have attempted to record the lights, but it is not a good quality.

Adel, IA
On March 7th, around 10:00 PM CST, overhead high in the Eastern sky a tiny, round, gold light appeared from no apparent origin, shot across a section of the (about 6 inches in my field of vision), and in an instant zipped upwards with an immediate change of direction before vanishing. There seemed to be a brief trail, but it happened so quickly, I am unsure due to its speed. Everything about this object, except for the quick change of course, resembled a shooting star, but I could not find any reports for comets. We spoke with the witness, who prefers to remain anonymous. He sounded to us to be serious-minded, and he confirmed that the date indicated above is correct, and that the date of the sighting was not April 07th, as we initially had suspected. PD

Coalville (UK/England) · United Kingdom
2 bright star like objects one above the other appeared near to the Great Bear (or Plough) constellation. The lower of the objects was same apparent brightness as Venus, the upper of the objects approximately as bright as Jupiter. I didn't see them appear, I was photographing the seven sisters star cluster and was looking for something else to photograph when I saw these 2 objects - and being an amateur astronomer, I know that there are no bright objects in this location at this time of year. I observed them for about 20 seconds - then thought I should snap a photograph, but my camera was mounted on my telescope. By the time I dismounted the camera from the scope, I looked up and saw the upper object disappear, followed by the lower object disappear approximately 2 seconds later. These were not conventional aeroplanes, or satellites as they did not move and were completely static in the sky. Nice illustration provided by witness. We agree with the witness's comment above that no bright celestial objects are present in the northern sky. PD

Pittsburgh, PA
We were driving back late at night from a party, and we look up and there's these two strange flashing red lights and a strange sensation came over the two of us and I didn't catch a photo because of the strange sensation. We circled back to look for it but by them it was gone. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Donaldsonville, GA
Bright orange light first spotted northeast of our campsite and was traveling southwest bound at constant high rate of speed. The object was first spotted approximately 10 degrees above the horizon and continued to be visible until it was approximately 10 degrees above the southwest horizon! No sound was noticed as it passed by nor several minutes after it passed. There were five sober adult witnesses to the object! Including three Law Enforcement Officers! ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) This is a supplement to my original report made on 03/04/2017. Several important things came to mind. Myself, as well as the other witnesses with me, enjoy spotting satellites while camping! This is often done with the aid of the iPod app SkyView, as well as the Sky View Satellite guide! When this object was noticed, we all commented on how different it was, compared to a normal sighting of a satellite. The object was faster, brighter, and maintained the same intensity in illumination during the entire observation, from approximately 10 degrees above the northeast horizon, over our location, to about 10 degrees above the southwest horizon. Most satellites will get brighter or dimmer, depending on its relationship to the earth and sun! The moon that night was about half full but the object was still very visible! My wife was able to orient her IPad in the direction of the object, but no satellite was noted on her app! I know that not all satellites may be allowed to appear on this app, as well as all space junk (rocket bodies)! We spoke via telephone with the witness, who works in law enforcement, and we found him to be sincere and sober-minded. He added that all of the witnesses are skilled at observing satellites passing overhead, and that the object had a distinctly orange appearance to it. We have corrected the date above, to reflect a sighting on March 04, 2017, which is the date the witness intended. PD

It showed up again at about the same time, 1900pm. My wife spotted it. I went down the street to get a better look, it was just sitting there in the sky. A white light with a lite haze around it. Not moving at all, not changing to brite white to low like last time. Sighting of Venus? PD

Kitchener (Canada), ON · Canada
Observed 2 bright lights near the base of the Big Dipper's "cup" and "handle". The lights stayed the exact same distance from each other, (about an inch, relatively), as they slowly moved down in the sky, along the handle of the Big Dipper towards the horizon. They became increasingly distant and dimmer as they moved until they disappeared completely from sight. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

In western sky on evning of 03Mar2017, at aprox 19:30, in Longmont, CO, was seen a very bright looking star. What made it unusal was its brightness and distinctive shape of an upward pointing arow which gave the impression of, 'What the hell is that thing?" Many people must have seen it. Venus. PD

I was in my backyard and noticed these lights. They were so bright, the light coming out of them looked like a rainbow, or a prism. There were 3 total, one off on its own, and two grouped together. Something really have me a strange feeling about them, my car was also visibly frightened by something as well.

Lake Conroe, TX
I live in Bentwater on Lake conroe. Its a very exclusive community. Houses here start at $200,000.00 and go up. Last night, I noticed a star that seemed to be much much closer to me than any other. i thought it was just a satilite, out here we dont have street lights of any kind. there is ZERO light pollution. I noticed a light moving strangly and extremly close to the water. I thought like anyone else it was a satilite, maybe a plane or something but how it moved was weighing on my mind. so i took a wooden straight pole, i aligned it with the top of the pole and the light. the light moved two feet at least to the left. Stopped. Then moved at least 10 feet up. Then two or three feet right. it was bouncing all over . but always going back to the center in line with the pole. after 3 hours of watching this it just dissapeared. I mean nothing. no clouds were out at all, you can easily see all the stars, it just vanished. I talked to a few neighbors on my way to the car this morn. and apperently I wasnt alone seeing this. Its been happening ALOT over the last two yrs over the lake. not EVER over the land just the lake. Its a well known fact that people are seeing lights like this happening over lake conroe more and more lately. I never belied any of what I had heard till I saw what I saw lastnight. it has changed evrything I know.

My wife called me in our bedroom and showed me a strange light in the sky outside our house. I went outside to see if I could get a video of it, but it wouldn't pick it up. Pretty weird though it seen get slightly brite then dim down and then repeat that the whole time we watched. It didn't move from that spot at all.
