Panama City Beach, FL
I was UFO watching (I have seen more UFOs before, here at the same spot from my home.) when about 10 minutes into my UFO hunt, I spotted what looked like a fuzzy line that was appearing to dance in the sky. I pointed my camera at the line and noticed that there was about 11 orbs, vibrating in the image, they were also travelling across the sky. I took a long exposure image, 10 seconds to capture the objects, it was a success. I captured the whole 10 seconds of glory, then ran inside to get my parents, to come look at the objects, they barely made it out in time to see them over the Gulf of Mexico. I then took another 10 second exposure image of the objects, this time it was zoomed in so you can see the vibration more.

Athens, GA
One object spotted in North/Northeast sky from the intersection vantage point. Clear day and no other clouds or objects visible in the vicinity. Traveling on the highway for most of the time it was witnessed, so I could not take a photo. The witnessed and elapsed times are estimated. The object appeared circular with two shiny, silver dots on opposite sides of the circle at a ~150 degree angle to the ground. It appeared to have an outline of a circle, but clear in the middle. The sky was visible there. I am not good at estimating distance or size, but it was around an inch wide in the sky. Seemed to fly parallel to the ground for 30 seconds (after I noticed it), then descended quickly along that same angle. Dots were moving and one suddenly disappeared leaving a short, thick condensation trail in the sky. The other dot was less visible, but still moving and descending when I lost sight of it as I moved with traffic. I work in a staff position at a university.

Loveland, CO
A stationary white distant object that changed shape and size was observed in the sky by two witnesses. Initially it was slightly brighter and larger than Venus, which made the two witnesses (husband and wife) take notice because it seemed unusual and out of place. Multiple times the object changed shapes, expanded in size, and shrunk back down to its original size. The camera was a Samsung A11 smartphone which was zoomed to its maximum during the whole time images were taken. The other witness was watching the object unaided, and also with binoculars, and independently verified what he saw confirmed the behavior of the object as shown by the images. After about a ten minute period, they stopped watching and walked back into their home perplexed by what they both saw. This report being made on behalf of the witnesses.

The craft was changing shapes between a dark/black sphere, cube and pyramid or diamond shape. It had a distorted field around it that you could see because of the spectrum of light around it bent by the sun. It would move in wave motion not truly straight. No noise and all air traffic seemed to stop before and during the event. After the event you could hear jets from Nellis Airforce base. Recorded video of the event. I have a longer video but your system says the file is too big. [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Possible]

One White object that appeared to change shape as it moved through space. Was up as high as a plane, flying over the 270/315 area. My husband and I both witnessed it. A lot of birds were flying around the area which caused us to step outside, I looked over to the south side of our house and saw it in the air. [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Probable]

Longdon, Rugeley, STAFFORD · United Kingdom
After a typical day at work, I arrived home to a tranquil evening in the countryside. Opting to hang my laundry under the clear, partially cloudy night sky, I was granted an uninterrupted view of the celestial expanse. My rural location meant only occasional aircraft, mainly air ambulances, traversed the heavens, making this sighting all the more remarkable. While attending to the laundry, my gaze inadvertently shifted upward. The night sky greeted me with an astonishing abundance of stars, creating a captivating backdrop. Amid this celestial panorama, an unexpected and peculiar phenomenon caught my attention—an erratic, zigzagging light, reminiscent of a star. At first, my instinctive thought considered it might be the lights of a high-altitude aircraft. However, its distance contradicted this explanation. An alternative notion of a shooting star crossed my mind, but the light's capricious movements, weaving in and out of the clouds, left me in perplexity. Suddenly, this enigmatic luminary ceased all motion, hovering motionless against the night's canvas. Intrigued, I became wholly engrossed in observing this unusual light. To my astonishment, it initiated a swift descent, seemingly transitioning from the distant stars to Earth's orbit within a matter of seconds. Its proximity unveiled a luminous, spherical form, roughly resembling the size of a common ball bearing. Just as swiftly as it had descended, the enigmatic light ascended vertically, returning to its original position amidst the star-studded tapestry. This curious display left me with a flurry of questions, pondering whether I had borne witness to a drone or some other enigmatic celestial occurrence. Regardless of the nature of this celestial entity, it remained elusive. Driven by curiosity, I reached out to it, calling into the night. To my astonishment, the light responded, embarking on a second descent. Its descent mirrored the grace of a feather, hovering a mere 20-30 feet above the ground before swiftly returning to its celestial realm. I continued to observe this mesmerizing spectacle for approximately 15 minutes before retiring indoors for an hour. Upon my return to the night's embrace, the enigmatic light reappeared. This time, it introduced a new layer of complexity—a convergence of two additional brilliantly shining, star-shaped lights, forming a perfect triangle. Curiously, the arrangement of these lights gave the impression of an invisible cloak, flawlessly blending with the night sky. Any effort to focus on the stars at the triangle's periphery prompted the central light to promptly return to its original position. In another astonishing moment, the celestial entity descended once more, hovering approximately 10-15 feet above the ground. Its ethereal presence persisted, resembling a delicate wisp of starlight, encompassing a central, lens-like dark sphere. During this phase, it exhibited a novel behavior—an intermittent flickering. Briefly vanishing into obscurity, it reappeared moments later in its customary starlight form. This enchanting interplay of light and shadow transpired for less than a minute before the entity gracefully ascended, merging once again with the celestial tapestry. As I contemplated these extraordinary events, one undeniable truth remained—this enigmatic spectacle persisted, leaving me with a profound sense of wonder and countless unanswered questions amidst the eternal mystery of the stars.

At 8:15, I noticed two bright lights in the sky circling each other in a tight circle, then into a larger circle. Then the two lights went off in opposite directions of each other (one SW and one NE). I was able to take a pic of them close together, then the second video shows them going away from each other. The third 44 sec video is of one of the crafts/lights leaving. When you zoom in, the object is flashing multiple colors and seems to be rotating/tumbling. No sounds came from either of the crafts and no vapor trail or any obvious way of propulsion.

The craft was literally lighting up consistently until reaching very bright whitish color and then fading to black or dark (no longer visible) but following where it’s trajectory was heading would reappear consistently lighting up more and more again to a very bright white, as if it were “powering up”. The craft repeated this four times and then completely disappeared. The speed that’s this thing was traveling had to be at least 5-10 times faster than any commercial aircraft I’ve seen in the night skies. If I wasn’t looking up at that exact time I never would have seen it. The whole experience was only 6-8 seconds and I’ve never seen anything like it before.

I am writing to bring to your attention a matter that I have hesitated to discuss due to its unconventional nature. Recently, I noticed that NASA established a team to investigate unidentified anomalous phenomena. We saw a gray alien and one of these interdimensional aliens that were declassified by the FBI in 2020. These two aliens killed our three pets and then has been trying to abduct my daughter over the past 3 years, even in our home in St. Charles, due to lack of response, and has continued to sexually assault her. We can't see it with our naked eye, but saw it one time, and there are two in our home, one shorter and one taller, which I detail below. We have been facing a peculiar situation for over three years, and despite reporting it, no action has been taken. There is one that looked like what the FBI declassified in 2020: https://thelifehacker.org/.../fbi-document-earth-has.../. And the other looked like this: https://www.pbs.org/.../alien-abduction-and-ufos-why-are.../. This alien has been responsible for the unfortunate deaths of all our animals within a span of mere months. It appears to have taken an interest in her when she was working in south-central Missouri, writing and editor of publications for a news network, and followed her home. We've since been horrified by this extraterrestrial, especially after an organization's response telling us there is nothing, we can do about aliens but move homes. We have shared our experience with various individuals in education and officials who study this area. Still, due to the unusual and sensitive nature of the situation, we have received varied and unhelpful responses. We also contacted officials, but they advised us to contact animal control. The alien species emits an electromagnetic field that has caused swelling in our faces and bodies. This alien also started freezing my daughter in place in bed, where it assaulted her for years during COVID-19, when it expressed its kind began studying us. And the ET remains dormant, for reasons we can only imagine, in our home. Before this experience, neither of us believed in the existence of alien life. It has been an incredibly distressing ordeal, compounded by the lack of appropriate channels to report it.

My dad was driving on Hartford Road at night to go to a clothing store when I noticed a stationary disk shaped object with white lights placed on the top of the object. I then pulled out my phone and recorded the object staying still in the sky. It then started to move and lost some of its lights shaping a triangle. I believe it may have shape-shifted from a disk with lights on top into a triangle shape with lights at its three corners. The object then flew behind some trees and I was unable to view it.

Afternotice thing when appeared to be a star in the sky. During the daylight, it seemed like there was maybe 2 very close together. Or one with to separate reflective points. That made it easy to see. I assume then with my camera 30 times and I could see that they're definitely was to separate. Reflective spots on it, but it appeared to be changing shape and color with every picture. Usually, it looks silver but then it looked pink that's covered in a reflection of the sunlight I don't know, but it did not move, so it doesn't seem to me to be something using lyft to fly cause it would need to move. Couldn't have been a satellite because again. It was stationary and it was daylight. Strange that it was above a military base. I do also have more pictures than the 4. I'm allowed to upload on this page.

Craft was metallic in color. Shapeshifting from round/bulbous to rectangle and flat like a sheet. Flying too high for an airplane just taking off from the airport which is within a couple of miles from where I was. Flying way too slow to be n airplane. No wings or tail fin observed. No sound. No exhaust.

My partner and I were servicing machinery close to 10 pm on Wednesday Sept. 6 2023 when he noticed the orange craft bouncing in the sky and he quickly pointed it out to me, as soon as I looked at it I knew it wasn't a plane or a drone, it was a very very bright orange light way up in the sky, it let off some sort of burst because you could see a light trail and then proceeded to bounce.. it almost looked like it was reappearing in another spot, like time travel or super speed, not a slow consistent path. And shortly after it disappeared. I have video evidence and 2 people that saw it at the same time in the same location.

First noticed a bright "light" on my lake, from my bathroom window, later observed an object in the sky, the "light" on the lake was a reflection of the object. The object was bright, like a LED light in the sky. it did not move around, but it seemed to change shapes, circle, cigar, corn, etc. However, I have vision issues, so not 100% sure about the shapes. It might also be caused by clouds: at times, the object was shadowed by clouds. It stayed there for about half an hour, may be longer, because I went back to sleep when it gradually got day light outside. I took a few pictures using my Google P7 phone. See attached.

Thank you for taking the time to read this report and for opening a process up for individuals to report phenomena. My background, 20-30, male, single, college educated, previous small business owner, 400K+ income, religious, strong family life and social life, passions for business, cyber security, technology, history, design, art, cars, watches, volunteering, dogs, mental health advocacy, freedom of information and equal rights. I am INTJ, highest IQ test 162 and a lover for problem solving, situational analysis and critical thinking. I have had many encounters but to describe all would reveal too much personal info. Recently, I lost a sibling. Shortly after one night, I saw a UFO similar to the below that changed shape to the pendant of an Owl that my sibling wore frequently. In that moment my whole world froze, not out of fear but out of wonder as it became obvious that they have been watching for a long time. I will admit since witnessing and interacting with the first visible UFO/ET, life has not been the same in the sense that reality takes a different turn and things both physical and spiritually lead to a much more centralized state of consciousness/awareness. I have had a near death experience that I believe was linked to my interaction with these beings, this was a car accident going over 85+ mph where the car was totaled and I crashed into a cement bridge railing with the windows down. The car had a malfunction and just lost control, no reasonable explanation from the computer. There was not a scratch on my body or any injuries, without sounding like a kook, I strongly believe some force saved me in that moment. Before I crashed and hit the wall it was like time stopped briefly and I could not move, it was a state of paralysis if you will but ended almost like a fast forward animation in a movie when things freeze and speed up. There was a loud humming noise in that moment and then total silence, and like a switch flipped I hit the wall. The airbags did not make contact with my body, I had no bruising or damage physically but muscular stiffness/twitching. For the record, I do not believe I am special or some genius, this is one of the realizations that troubles me the most about my past and encounters with these observers. Truly, I wonder why they appear to me and have chosen to interact for an extended period of my life. My best guess is trauma based and spiritual connection. I have seen many of these objects over the last three years but this recent sighting has been more pronounced and longer. The object appeared directly off the coast and moved rapidly from the surface of the ocean into the sky. Object appeared to be yellow/white at first but changed colors rapidly to all colors of the spectrum while also changing composition to a solid object. I believe the original light emitting appearance to be some camouflage/cloaking technology as many of the sightings I have witnessed have exhibited the same properties. After hovering stationary for a short period it began to move back and forth rapidly in the sky. During these movements I was able to capture the objects true appearance when it would come to rest after a period of movement. The object appeared to be a metallic ball at rest after movement but would also change to other shapes such as a cube before changing color and then reverting to the original form. The original form simply looked like a ball of gas that was emitting light or shooting particles from all direction. There was no noise or propulsion mechanism spotted; the object moved at speeds and intervals that are not possible with current technology. I have witnessed these objects take different shapes that almost appear to be the faces of common earth objects as well as animals; it seems like they are attempting to communicate with us similar to how we sent the SETI broadcast into space. Originally I believed I was seeing a lens flare up on the camera when I took video of the objects but they are indeed visible to the naked eye the same as they appear on video. When I see these objects it is always a similar sensation that is to either go to the window or walk outside. Immediately upon doing so you are confronted with something that defies reality; I believe they have telepathic capabilities but I cannot find the words to describe how it occurs other than though cognitive thought communication. After this encounter, I have been unable to sleep and experience lack of appetite, “tinnitus” coupled with intense headaches and joint pain/cracking. I noticed freckles/dots on my left leg that look precisely placed. This same leg has since started to cause tremendous joint pain and stiffness in the foot/muscle tightness. This is the most notable object but the others I have seen before appear to be the so called “tic tac.” I am including photos first from this event and will include others from Friday where I witnessed what I think is the same observer/group. DO NOT REPOST THIS MESSAGE WITHOUT CONTACTING ME PRIOR. You may reach out to me if you are interested in more footage and photos that I have captured as well as for more on my background and experiences tied to these events. I STRONGLY believe that I have information tied to the medical side regarding time loss that investigators would find useful in our understanding of these objects as well as info that will help others. For anyone struggling that reads this, stay the course and keep the faith. Trust your intuition and most importantly meditate and find an outlet that helps you cope. Thank you again for your time and god bless.

2 lights were noticed together like Mars & a star would usually appear. Larger iron-reddish one to the right. But, I immediately noticed the smaller star, which was to the left, was too close to the larger than Mars is usually seen if Mars were out. So, I found myself keeping watching. Suddenly, the larger light one to the right expanded to a larger glowing light. I couldn't believe it. I started waking up my son. He was not waking up, I frantically told him, there is a real UFO, wake up. The two lights SUDDENLY completely left the atmosphere - like they pulled out of it extremely quickly, backward. 1 lights, looked like Mars & smaller star too close. Larger one expanded. They disappeared instantly. Suddenly, a large similar beautiful glowing large light appeared through the atmosphere over to the right of where the other two had been, but higher up than the first time. Then another same sized light came through the atmosphere to that one's left. Then another, coming in at different times than the other but one right after the other until there were a total of 5 that appeared next to each other. How beautiful I thought, but what a crazy thing, 'right there.' Is this Armageddon I wondered? Why is this happening right there? I was looking at the cars in front of me wondering what are they thinking, but got really loud now trying to wake my son up - it was serious. Suddenly, they started disappearing instantly again - my son opened his eyes, he said he saw the last one leave. This was I-25 around about mile marker 140 heading towards Las Cruces NM from El Paso. I had just left El Paso and was not clear of El Paso yet Aug. 31, 2023, my birthday. I will never forget this. The objects were size-changing lights with instant disappearance and instant reappearances - BEAUTIFUL. There were absolutely no aircraft in the vicinity, no clouds. I wondered if another country had advanced technology using reverse engineering on UFOs to hurt us. What a trip. There is nothing like this experience.

A strange white cloud moving low and fast was spotted over ocean. It looked like a white school bus shaped object inside a cloud. It all moved as one. I grabbed my phone as it changed shape into a swirling pattern. Then the front became a reflective triangular object. The triangle shot off in the blink of an eye, leaving the cloud part behind. The cloud stopped moving, turned grayish, and slowly disappeared.
