Rural Kirkwood, IL
A cylinder shaped object flashed across the sky on my phone video I took. The object made a slight curve change in direction and the colors changed when I enlarge the video and slow it down. Moving at a very high rate of speed!

first seen inside - thought it might be a reflection of something in glass. Got outside in 10-15 seconds and it had moved from 70 degrees high to 50-ish high. Disappeared behind mountains (at 15 degrees high) about 15 seconds later

I looked over and saw the object floating slowly to my right. I recorded the object and it left. Typically I would assume this is a plane or a helicopter. But for the object to be so close to the ground and not make any sound was what changed my mind. [NUFORC annotation: Aircraft - Probable]

Miami, FL
While watching the ocean below I saw a gray cylinder. There were no wings, nothing that I could see on it, no exhaust. It occurred to me that it was something strange, so I called to my husband, who leaned over to look out of my window and I asked him “What is that” and he said “I don’t know”. It was headed for a tall cloud bank, and we both saw a shadow from the cloud bank fall over it before it disappeared into the cloud, where we lost sight of it.

I have a lot of anomalous activity on my security camera I have set up facing west on my back patio. I decided to view it a little after 10:00 PM MST. I noticed this long cylindrical object and hit record. It is traveling from the west very slowly toward the east. I was a bit shocked at what I was seeing so I did not have the presence of mind to switch the night vision off to see if it was visible without it. I did capture a still photo. In Night Vision the object seemed to be illuminated the entire length. As it was about to exit the frame a small blinking light (a small plane probably) passed it going the opposite direction. It can be seen in the video. A few insects and orbs are flying around ( there are a lot of orbs usually but we haven't had swarms of insects, just a few) There of course are cars causing some lens flares but this is not what I an reporting, I am aware of these types of camera anomalies. I was in my gown and in bed so I did not get up and run outside I just watched it on my WYZE phone app. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

Ardmore, AL
Saw a craft maybe 150-200 feet up hovering and it looked to be around the size of a golf cart and it was sporadically shining down light that looked like a laser that was a greenish color. Then all of the sudden some of my land on my property caught on fire where the laser was shining so I ran towards the fire to see if I could put it out and luckily it was small enough for me to stomp out and didn’t get out of control yet, after I got the fire out I looked back up for the craft but it was gone.

Benton Harbor, MI
This took place around 11 PM. The sky was clear with stars. We were sitting in our hot tub, looking up into the sky. Was perfectly sober. Just relaxing, 6 very large cylinder like objects, dark in color compared to the sky that was clear that night. They moved very quickly, but silently with no lights 6 information in a V-shaped. It was very silent, but very fast.. We live about 2 miles from Lake Michigan. The UFO was heading west from the size and the distance. I would say it’s banded around 100 feet across or span and about 30 to 40 feet thickness from front to back. And the speed that it was going comparable to the Jets that we see flyover at night from O’Hare airport or coming from that direction I had to be going way faster than any of our planes that we have in the sky again it was silent, very fast cylinder, six cylinder separate, or perhaps were joined in someway, but in a \/,shape

Oro Valley, AZ
Red colored cylinder traveling east to west about 2000' above ground, maybe up to 3000'. No wings, not tail stabilizer, no sound, it was silent. Traveled a bit slow but steady, maybe about 80 or so mph, like the speed of a cessna 172. Completely red in color, nothing sticking out from the body of the cylinder, it was just a clean, red, cylinder. The time was approximately 8:40 am to 8:50 am. I was in my back yard feeding and watering wild birds. The red cylinder was distinct with no surrounding haze or aura. It was flying slowly east to west and with no sound or any engine noise. No other aircraft were around at that time. It seemed to be about the size of an automoble, maybe 20' or so long and red in color.

Queen Creek, AZ
5/31 8:49 While looking up at the stars I noticed an image moving across the sky that I thought was a satellite. It seemed lower and to be moving faster than satellites I've seen in the past. After observing it for maybe 30 seconds as it moved west to east, it mad a sharp turn (not quite 90°) and proceeded North east and it seemed to speed up. The following night (6/1) I was outside with my dogs at 8:01 PM I captured an image of an orb moving in the same general direction. I had time to notify my wife and she observed it to with the naked eye. This time it didn't turn on an angle but rather kept on the same path, west to east. It was in view for just over a minute and as I was simultaneously recording on my phone and watching with the naked eye, it suddenly disappeared. I had it locked in on the recording and it wasn't really dimming or fading away. It just disappeared. I had convinced myself it was a floating latern but after showing others and examining and comparing images, I'm not so sure.

The black cylindrical object floated in the sky in what seems to be a stationary place. However the object itself folded over into a V type shape and formed

We saw an object moving across the sky in the video. Upper left at approximately 10 seconds in. Couldn’t tell how high it was. Was moving end over end - not too fast- seemed to be moving in a straight steady line. Sun was bright so it was hard to get the video. We didn’t think much of it- thought it was a balloon. Can’t tell by my video but was hoping someone has the technology to enlarge it and examine it. Thank you [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Probable]

White “dash” approx 100-200’ above ocean. Turned boat towards object. Son saw it. Then in the blink of an eye it went straight down. The speed at which it dropped down out of sight was real fast… way faster than any aircraft.

Chalamette, LA
I was ghost hunting around the old house on the battlefield. My phone was recording video towards the house when something caught my eye over the river. I turned my head to see a large grey cylinder with round/dome ends flying along the northern bank of the Mississippi river, heading east. My phone was recording in the wrong direction. It took a second to realize what I saw. By then, it was gone. It was only about one second of visual. It was tic-tac shaped but longer than tic-tac renditions I've seen. It was the size of a commercial jet fuselage, dark or medium grey with no lights or sounds. Since it was nighttime, maybe it was medium grey and appeared darker. Hard to judge height and speed, but I'd say 200mph and 60 feet off the ground. I did not get to see it fly off into the distance. It went behind a large live oak tree and disappeared. I'm guessing it made a 90 degree turn to head south. But maybe it cloaked while it was flying behind the tree. The cloud ceiling was very low, heavy overcast, wind from the east. So it was flying into the wind. It was not crisp clear to my eyes. It was slightly blurry or soft focus. Fog/low clouds, combined with speed, and my eyes adjusting could explain why it wasn't super sharp looking. But I saw an artist rendition from a Nexus magazine article that shows the exact same thing, and it's a little blurry in that picture too. So maybe the propulsion or antigravity vibrates/bends the light around it. To the west of Chalamette Battlefield are port terminals and Domino sugar. Maybe they caught it on cctv if cameras are facing the water. The time stamp on my phone when it was recording is 1:09am, but I don't know if the time is recorded at the beginning of the clip or the end. The clip is a few minutes long. So I estimated this happened at 1:13 or so.

Worcester, MA
While driving back home from a haircut on May 6, 2023, I noticed an object in a fairly cloudless sky. The object was shaped like a Tic Tac - and from my vantage point was unmoving. I pulled over to take video for roughly 13 seconds before moving along as where I was pulled over wasn't fully "off" the road. I didn't want to obstruct traffic. After pulling away, I lost sight of the object. From my vantage point, I couldn't see any fins, tails or markings like you usually can from an aircraft. The object did not seem to gain in size or decrease in size - which from my vantage point - looked as if it was hanging in midair. The Worcester Airport is just to the left of where this object is seen. When filming the object, I tired to stay as zoomed out as possible to decrease shakiness.

Gladstone, VA
Two orbs were witnessed just after sunset hovering above the James River. One had white light and was donut shaped within a circle spinning counterclockwise then clockwise and moving back and forth in place. The other object was further away with colored lights and was moving in a tumbling motion. We witnessed these objects for 30 minutes to an hour. Sky was somewhat lit just after sunset. They were visible to the eye and pictures and video show detail.

Buffalo, NY
My 17-year old spotted a large, very bright object in the sky that ascended with a glimmering pale bluish-white light illumination propulsion. When he began to film the object is stopped ascending and remained idle in the sky for a couple minutes until it vanished. Two brand new iPhones phones were filming the object, one overheated and the other lost complete charge. Digitally documented through the night. The object reappeared briefly the next couple hours behind a nearby star. There was no noise generated. There was little movement by object once we identified it in the sky. The object was identified in protected FAA commercial airspace but did not see anything on the FAA data tracker. Oddly, we were the only two people to see object in our immediate area as it was still very light outside. This is the sending sighting in the same area in two years.

Driving thru Echo Canyon in Wyoming about noon and out of nowhere is a tick tack shaped very shiny, metallic object in the sky. It went into a very small thin cloud and never came out of it.

Looking to the west, this object moved from south to north at a constant pace. Too fast for a plane/drone, too high for a bird and did not leave a contrail. Object was a black pill shape and did not have any lights flashing/strobeing and did not reflect any sunlight. At first I heard the sound of a plane in the distance but did not see any planes anywhere until I noticed what I thought was a black bird soaring high in the sky then realized it wasn't a bird or a plane. Object was making a humming sound the entire time of travel. I used to live by Offut AFB and have seen some weird lights and vehicles in the sky as well as odd sounds. Never seen anything like this. This Object was definitely not a b52 at cruising altitude or a plane.

Spokane Valley, WA
Multiple people on the I-90 in Spokane Valley, Washington witnessed a stationary flying object. Depending on the angle, it looked rocketship-shaped or cylindrical with a dome top. It was visible and didn't move for about 20 minutes while we drove down I-90. Don't know how long it has been visible. It must be pretty large to be visible for so long and from different angles. At one point there may have been a flashing light from the base of the object.

I was with a group of friends barbecuing just after 5pm yesterday evening. i was walking out into the open area because my friend was pointing to something in the sky. We then saw a small object flying dangerously close to a commercial airline. It looked to be metalic and spherical. The event lasted long enough for me to call out additional friends to see it as well. We did not get a picture of the event, however, i did snap a picture of a strange chemtrail left in the area of the event. Note that the craft was actually moving perpendicular to this trail though.
