Fort Wayne, IN
My name is ((name deleted)) of Fort Wayne Indiana Fort Wayne, Indiana 46825. I woke up around 4:55am on 2/16/22. I looked up through the sky light in my bathroom because I saw a bright light with a green aura in the shape of a circle. I went to my kitchen window to look out my back yard. I saw the moon was beautiful and bright. Next to the moon was a green dot and then what looked like a dull shadow of the moon. I went to try to take a picture and I noticed the green dot was moving. The dull shadow was moving too. I have pictures of the moon and the green dot but the dull shadow did not show up on my camera for some reason. I tried to line all three up at the same time to take a picture. Then took screen shots. What I saw on my camera was shocking. Over a series of camera burst there was two crosses that appeared in the sky. This same occurrence occurred the next night 2/16/22 at 3:45am and lasted until 4:57am. The second night I saw what looked like jet screams in multiple places at around 4:44am. The jet streams made loud sounds like an actual jet would be flying over. They seemed to be happening at such a fast and loud pace. Some of the jets screams intersected. I have 99 pictures of proof over the two nights and 1 video. My contact information is 260-615-0240. I would love to discuss more of what I witnessed. I tried to contact NASA but they never returned my call. I’m hoping you can provide a space to tell my story. It looks like your site only allows 5 photo uploads but I wish I could share them ALL.

I left my house between 6:07 to 6:08 AM. I turned North onto Sands Road and noticed what I initially thought was an airplane. They are extremely common as we are close to XNA airport. However, this was a very odd and large X or + (plus sign) shape. It was moving slow, just below cloud level at a slight upward angle heading North - Northwest. I watched the craft enter into the cloud layer and disappear inside. I heard no sounds of jet or prop-driven aircraft. I turned West onto Wallis Road trying to continue to view its path and turned left (South) back into the housing development main entrance. There were no vehicles present in any direction. I continued around and stopped to try to recover my view but it was gone. I was awestruck and didn't have the presence of mind or time (since it disappeared so quickly) to get out my phone for a video or photo capture. I am an aircraft enthusiast, and this was not an aircraft. The Crafts' top 2 outstretched "arms" (for lack of a better description) of the craft had (1) light at the end (white). The very center of the "X" or + (plus sign) had a RED LIGHT. The 2 Lower arms had 2 lights each (on each arm). I have made a couple of Drawings (included here) of the shape to define as best as possible, what it appeared like. It was much too large to be a drone. (This craft would have been between 50 to 100 feet in dimension. ) It was not LifeFlight, helicopter, Osprey or other military craft. The craft was silent. Nothing was audible. (I wanted to try to debunk what I saw, so I downloaded and checked Flightpath 24 software to my phone. There were 3 flights between 6 AM and about 6:15 am. None of the flight paths were over my home that morning. The closest path was several miles south. I completed a screen recording of the flight paths to try to disprove what I had just seen, but it just reinforced the reality of it. ) Background: I am a Senior Director of Business Development in consumer goods, in my 50's. I am analytical with data insight knoiwledge and skills, as well as a minor degree in computer science.

New River, AZ
Craft was sighted inbound to PHX on the Jet Arrival route from the NW. This route passes directly over my home. It was a bit brighter than the other arrivals but other wise appeared identical to the Boeing's. I am forced to include airbus. This flying machine came to an instant full stop approximately 2 miles from my position to the NW and an estimated 10,000 feet vertically. At that point the entire ship began to flash. All of this rig flashed as a white light, much larger than it's appearance when inbound on the Jet Arrival Route. This continued for approximately 2 minutes. The light then extinguished. The craft was seen no more. Background was an overcast stratus layer. Location: N33 87 3940 W112 045 3050 + - 2 miles There is so much UFO activity here it is becoming boring.

I was out comet hunting Jan 2,2022. I did not see anything in that area of the sky, but I was intent on getting photo of comet. I would have reported earlier, but was suggested by someone that it just represented lens flare... but then others suggested the design, structure looked suspicious? Interesting? (I'm sending a small image of it). [NUFORC annotation: Camera Anomaly - Probable]

This is the second time within the last few nights that we have seen this type of object in the sky to the WSW and about 10 miles north of St. Augustine. It appears to be an equally spaced cross with the vertical section having 5 white lights and the horizontal section having two white lights on each side of the vertical section. The center light is the largest and is a very bright white with all remaining lights of less intensity. It appears to be almost stationary with just a very slight movement towards the west.

September 02, 2021, 14:15 Eastern Time, United Airlines Flight # UA3412, window seat D (near aircraft’s right-hand, just forward of wing). We were somewhere near the borders of North Carolina, Kentucky, and West Virginia. Flightradar24 mobile app says we were at an altitude of 28,000 feet. Weather was fairly clear (some clouds). For approximately 10 seconds, I saw one, white, inverted (upside-down) “Y” go past our right wingtip. In the distance was another white aircraft (presumably civilian). I served in the Air Force for 6 years as a 2A3X2 ( F-16 Avionics Technician on the flight line), and experienced many aircraft in the US defense inventory. Additionally, I worked for a civilian aircraft manufacturer for 10 years. This was unlike any aircraft I’ve ever seen. As a skeptic, I have been researching what it could’ve been for about a month now, and I don’t have an explanation or a viable theory. Maybe an experimental aircraft in a vertical stall??

At 2:15 am, July 5th, I stepped outside on our back deck to smoke and observed an incredibly bright, and fast moving lowercase t-shaped white light traveling across the horizon. It was already at a quick speed by the time I initially viewed it. Traveling West to East, it was far brighter and faster than a satellite, and the same would hold true for an airplane. It struck me as an odd time to launch a rocket, given how many people were blowing off fireworks that night, however, after watching filmed rocket launches several times this year while researching Spacex’s Starlink launches, Blue Origin, and Rocketlab launches, I felt like I was probably watching a night time rocket launch. The only two or three peculiar things were that it was completely silent, although I could easily have been watching something that was 400 miles away, because of how light travels, and I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference; and it didn’t leave an exhaust plume. However it was nighttime, and its absolutely possible that the exhaust plume wasn’t visible in the night sky, nor at a relative height to be able to reflect light off of the sun. Hell, if I could do the math, that probably wouldn’t even be an option. Regardless, I watch the light zoom all the way across the horizon in about 90 seconds, saying to myself’ “What a treat, this is amazing!” The horizontal line of the t shape had become significantly stretched out, while the vertical line, from my position, stayed equal length to what it originally was. It’s about to go behind the tree line, so I sprint from the back deck, through the house, and out the front door to hide behind the car and watch this weird light continue on its path across the horizon. I’m scratching my head, when the light just stops moving abruptly. I watch it become enveloped by clouds, but it has an immensely striking lightness shining through the cloud. There were 3 or 4 visible stars in the initially cloudless, and now nearly entirely cloud-covered night sky. Western Washington has very fast changing weather and variability in in vapor pressure, but what really struck me was how bright the still light was behind the clouds. Far brighter than the moon. So significantly brighter than the stars I really had to wonder about it. I observe the abruptly still white light dim completely away, and then like how a lighthouse light becomes visible in the mist as it spins around back into view, the light went back to full luminosity in exactly the same still position, although this time with a red ring around it. Both of which eventually diminish into blank, dark nighttime sky. At the bar a few days later, while discussing the bizarreness of the experience with the bartender, a young man of about 30-35 entered the conversation and told me he worked for a subsidiary of Raytheon, shooting 1-30 mHz waves into the clouds in order to gather data on encrypted messaging information, and told me his work schedule had been delayed by a series or prototypical rocket launches being carried out under Amazon’s Project Kuiper, from the Seattle area. He believed I witness first stage booster separation, ignition of the second stage engine, and simultaneous reignition of the first stage booster as it was landed back in the greater Seattle Area, giving greater possibility to why I watched the light stop midair, disappear, and then reappear with a red halo, then decrescendo into darkness. Now, whether or not that is the answer, which I feel is on pretty slim evidence, given that launch schedules are planned out years in advance, and I couldn’t find any corroborating evidence to say that Project Kuiper has already done prototype launches, I still am holding out strong feelings for a government-related, man-made object to be the explation for this. I’ve spent a significant amount of time researching orbital reentry as well, and although it doesn’t exhibit the typical characteristics of boosters or rockets breaking up on reentry, I did find info on possible entry times of a Chinese-based Long March rocket, CZ-2F that was predicted to re-enter above Washington state within 4 days of of my t-shaped light observation, with a plus or minus of 26 hours. However there were no reported sightings of the re-entry, so its possible it may have been slightly miscalculated. I’ve also considered the possibility of it being a Navy-related government drone, given that I live within 5 miles of a nationally used Navy Base, although that would be one hell of a light they threw on that sucker. I’ve sort of ruled out a really long lasting firework, given that I used to make the stars (the expanding or fast moving colored lights) that go inside or mortar fireworks. There are compounds like titanium or magnesium that can give that long lasting exhaust flare, but there is always a smoke trail to accompany it. And I’ve also never seen a firework trail last longer than about thirty seconds at the very max. Your guess is as good as mine.

Sitting out back in broad daylight heard the sound barrier broke and seen a cross shaped aircraft flying by it came out of the clouds and flew west and was gone in 5-8 seconds flat. Fastest aircraft I've ever seen and you couldn't hear an engine. You could here wind whipping like it was just cutting across the sky like. That was pretty cool to see!!!

Buxton, ME
This event took place on Saturday, January 02, 2021 I went outside at 19:00 to watch the quadrantid meteor shower. I was laying on my back with my feet pointed to the South and Orion was crossing from East to West on the horizon. The space station had just passed directly overhead and I was watching it go down in the West when I was distracted by a white light which appeared to be coming straight at me because it was growing brighter. The light continued growing brighter and began moving to the East. It was low enough on the horizon that it disappeared behind my house so I couldn’t get a good look at it. An hour later I saw the light again and it was traveling at the same low point on the horizon but this time it was traveling to the East. It was closer this second time and I got a better look at it before it disappeared behind my house. I saw multiple white lights and also noticed a red light this time. I was almost waiting for it to come back when I saw it the third time and this time it was really close. It came out of the Southeast and was traveling Northbound about 100 yards to the East of my house. I thought it was maybe a drone at first because it was behind some trees but then it got closer and I realized there were actually five white lights in a X pattern with one red light in the center. I took off my headphones and heard a soft roar that immediately threw out the idea that it was a drone. The noise it gave off was most similar to jets flying over Lambeau field before a game but much more quiet like if the jets were moving as slow as they possibly could. The five white lights almost made me think that there were five different jets flying in the same direction possibly chasing the red light at the center but they were flying in perfect unison at around 80 miles per hour. At this point the UFO was the closest to me all night. It flew out into the open about 200 yards above my head and I knew I was looking at something incredible. I finally noticed a massive spherical cabin in the middle of the lights. The cabin definitely had a reflective coating because it was very difficult to see and if I hadn’t seen it shimmer, then I wouldn’t have seen it at all. It appeared to be 300 feet long, 150 feet wide, and 80 feet in depth. It was by far the largest flying object I’ve ever seen, probably by a factor of ten. The red light on the UFO had a circular shape and appeared to be on the bottom side of the cabin. The UFO continued Northbound past my house then abruptly turned East and took off at a much higher speed. It seemed to change directions as easily as a drone and was propelled by the five white lights and possibly the one red one. I can’t say for certain how fast it took off but it was gone beyond the Eastern (possibly Northeastern) horizon in about ten seconds . I saw two of the greatest meteors that I’ve ever witnessed, but all I can think about was the UFO. They’re here.

Was giving my horse water & admiring sunrise as an object came into my view fairly close - right above the tops of the ash trees in our yard. Thought it was a drone at first but the shape was so odd & there was absolutely no sound. It flew fairly fast at an even pace and I couldn’t stop staring at it until it disappeared. Looked like a metal cross flying vertically and had a dark red, somewhat glowing “spoon shaped” top. The strangest thing I’ve ever seen...googled all types of drones and weather tools but nothing compares.

Object seemed to stay stationary for a period of about 10 minutes. It hovered over the Durham area,near the power station and did not move, it then flew off to the west, and looked like a small plane. It had been flashing lights. Very unusual, and it was a clear night. I watched it through binoculars.

At 4:10am this morning i went to close the window and saw a cross shaped ufo one mile away hovering about 50 feet above a ridge. I live in the mountains. The shape was like two ovals intersecting and it pulsated with white yellow and pink light and the light streamed down from the center oval. I tried to take a picture but only got the window screen. I watched it for about 2 minutes and then it slowly got smaller and disappeared. It was really cool. I definitely think it was a ufo. It was a large and pulsating light. I will look at the same time tomorrow morning. I wish i could email you the shape it was really different. I drew a picture. The sky was pitch black and it was close, pulsating and definitely not a planet.

Object was perhaps 3000 ft. moving from west to east across and over TRAFFORD/MURRYSVILLE valley. My house sits high which made me look straight out at it, about 4 miles. Object was rectangular in shape with a white lighted spire protruding from top. A bright lit yellow rod protruded from the bottom looking like : - - - - - - (the dash being yellow light, spaces between in black, only pointing straight down from bottom of craft). It was stationary when first seen then moved quickly eastward. No sound heard. Weather was clear, no clouds.seen with naked eye then, 7x35 binoculars.

“frame” appeared metallic . The pads/cushions did not appear metallic. So to recap: At first we saw a fiery/glowing orb but as it came closer I saw the craft itself which had the general shape of a 3-dimensional Chevrolet logo with 4 (2 red, 2 green)pads on the front. The craft emitted amber/red/green lights. As far as my background I have been in the military for 16 years and 2 overseas deployments. I have seen flares and a wide variety of aircraft before. This thing was defying physics/gravity. This craft was unlike ANYTHING I've ever seen before and I am extremely grateful to have witnessed it.

Walking along the sidewalk, and looked up at the sky to see four objects that looked similar to planes and would’ve been planes if they made a noise. they were flying too close to one another to be planes, and they weren’t birds because they, didn’t have wings and didn’t flap their wings. they slowly flew past a hill/mountain and disappeared

Flew low overhead slowly. Cross shaped with 4 red blinking lights on end of each wing and one white light in center. Not bright like a landing light No outline of fuselage. Low rubble sound that was not heard until it flew directly overhead. 2nd was sighted to the west on an upper ward trajectory went through wisp of cloud and did not see reappearing. I am familiar with typical airplane and helicopter light patterns as I grew up on military bases. Never saw any shape such as this.
