Fife, WA
My wife, son and myself were driving to church at approximately 6:45 p.m and on I-5 south driving through Fife, WA. My son who is 3 says, "Daddy, they turned the lights on." I asked what lights, then I looked out to my left and saw a beautiful light green/teal light completely blanket the clouds and sky (It was cloudy and rainy day). This flash of light lasted for about 3 seconds and happened 3 times from what I saw. What made it even more amazing is at church, 8 of my friends said they saw the same thing driving to service all from different parts of Pierce County. Some in Puyallup, some in Spanaway and some in Graham. Never before seen anything like it in my 33 years, simply amazing. I'm sure there are more people who saw this as the area was huge.

I was driving northbound on Rt. 199 in James City County. And somewhere between the Monticello exit and the Longhill Road exit,, I looked out at the western sky, not very high above the tree line, and saw an object burning as it was flying and falling slightly in the sky. It was being incinerated in bright white and light greenish flames. It was like perhaps a satellite falling and burning or a part of an aircraft or something. But this was a lot larger and closer to the earth. Was it a drone that had hit power lines? I don’t know what it was. But I was concerned that whatever had burned out might have fallen on a house or hurt someone. So I called the Virginia State Police on my cellphone. The emergency operator was nice but sounded dubious about my report. So then I called the James City County police. That operator took my report and said they would send an officer to the area to investigate. Less than a minute after I hung up with the county 911 operator, a police officer called me, saying my call had been routed to him. But when I explained what I had seen and from where, he said he was located in the lower part of the county and wasn’t patrolling the area near my sighting. I didn’t hear from any other officers.

Santa Fe, NM
January 23, 2016, around 7:45 pm, my boyfriend & I were driving southwest on Hwy 599, Veteran’s Memorial Highway in Santa Fe, New Mexico. We saw in the northwest sky a very thick, bright green and blue (same tone as those colors in a rainbow) flash of light that moved at the same speed and in the same arch as I would expect a falling star to move. If the sky is a half dome, I estimate its height to be at the one third mark of the sky’s full arch from the horizon, so a little higher than the halfway point to the top of a dome. It was a full moon, so perhaps it was just a falling star that somehow reflected moonlight?? I thought it might be a satellite that blew up, but certainly some celestial being very far away, just way thicker and green & blue, which I’ve never seen before.

I was driving to work last night when I saw a flash of light streak across the sky and then disappear. I was heading southwest and the object was to my left heading in a downward direction. I could not see the source of the light but it was a blue flash of light so bright it almost appeared white in color.

Franklin, TN
On the night of December 14th, before during and after my drive from Murfreesboro to Franklin, I saw (similarly described by others) a small flash of a green light going through the sky. I sat and watched for hours, counting up to 41 as I saw them flying by every few minutes. The 19th had a small explosion in the air bursting out red and white. The 29th went over above me and I saw a similar explosion. Before I left Murfreesboro my uncle and girlfriend each witnessed one or two themselves. If someone could please shine some light on what I've discovered I would genuinely appreciate it. Sightings or meteors?? PD

Bremerton, WA
Very beautiful craft, pulsing brilliant iridescent light. Viewed through a telescope craft appears to be many, many different colors constantly pulsing, flashing, and dancing. When craft is veiled in clouds, obvious illumination of cloud material itself occurs, confirming for me that it is indeed its own source of light. First encounter the craft was very well behaved, stayed in the same relative airspace, elevation and distance away with occasional upper atmosphere visits accompanied by physics defying aerial maneuvers. Second encounter was about the same. The encounter being reported as of tonight was the first time craft had been observed flying out of sight on a linear trajectory, then promptly returing to sight within 20 seconds. Observed at least 5 FAA approved aircraft within UFO's airspace, which I denote is why the craft uncharicteristiy fled. First two encounters had no confirmed human craft observed, UFO stayed in consistent sight, flashing and dancing for hours to all night.

East Los Angeles (Boyle Heights), CA
Loud drone like buzzing motor sound, hovering low, engulfing the whole neighborhood of Hunter street & Lorena, Avenue with a super bright flash of light that simultaneously "turned on and off" every television and any plugged in electronics at all homes in the vicinity for about 3 to 5 seconds, waking and startling all neighbors who all came out in awe.. wondering what it could've been... o.O. We have changed the time of the alleged event, to reflect an event at 5 p.m., not a.m., as the source indicated. Possible hoax.

I was driving Southbound on Highway 11 between Orillia and Barrie Ontario around 10:15 PM on Friday December 4, 2015. As I was descending into a stretch known locally as "Gasoline Alley" I noticed a streak of light in the sky to the left. It was a long thin line of bright white light that seemed to start somewhere over or near Barrie and move North East towards Orillia. It reminded me of the Enterprise (Star Trek) going from full stop to warp speed and then disappearing. Seconds later there were 2-3 (possibly more) streaks doing exactly the same thing, like a fleet of ships. I realize these may have been meteors, but I've seen meteors before and these streaks seemed different to me. There was no ball of light at the head or streaking behind it. It was a perfect pencil thin white line. Also, CFB Border (air force base) is very close to this area. When I looked at a map I realized that if a ship had been hovering above the base and then shot off North East, it would have gone parallel to Highway 11 to my left exactly as I had seen.

Object seemed a bit large and not a perfect shape as it was moving fast so hard to tell. It moved in an erratic pattern like it was jumping. It was bright white and flashed in a clear bright cloudless blue sky. It would disappear then flash again several times and then it just disappeared for good. Definitely not a plane. I could see this from interstate 91 south near the shopping mall. Saw this and it was just out of the ordinary so I had to go online to see if I could find anyone else that may have noticed it. My description is female, 40's with college degree. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

On 11/21/15 at 10:40 PM, my fiancé and I see 30+ flashing bright lights in the sky. If we didn't look closely, we probably wouldn't have noticed and assumed they were stars! I saw red and white! It was only on one side of the sky! We also heard a pressure of air!! Pretty close together...is it drones? Or what is it?! We have corrected the date above. Source provides no contact information. Possible hoax?? PD

Three flashes of green light illuminated the entire sky -- followed after a power outage. Flashes were ~2 minutes apart. Confirmed by two others via social media, with an additional two witnesses with me. No sound accompanied these lights.

Sutherlin, OR
I went outside to smoke a cigarette with my friend, when I noticed the stars seemed to be coming out. The first individual star I noticed that seem to be different at first, looked like a normal star, it seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, with what seemed to be moving a bit side to side, then slowly disappeared as the blinking began getting smaller. We took like 15 minutes and decided to walk to his house. As we walked towards his house we looked up and saw what seemed to be a line of about four of these same lights. They were desicised in the stars, but we're larger more vibrent lights that within the next 8 minutes did the same odd flashing and disappearing activity.
